tui: migrate off the deprecated Bubble Tea mouse Type API (SA1019)

The mouse classification helpers checked both the current Button/Action pair and
the deprecated msg.Type / tea.Mouse* constants. Bubble Tea's parser always
populates Button+Action and only DERIVES Type from them, so the Type fallbacks
were pure redundancy (a left-button drag is Action==Motion, already covered by
mouseMotion). Drop them — clears all 11 SA1019 findings in internal/tui with no
behavior change. The left-drag test now asserts the Action==Motion path directly.

Gates: gofmt/vet/build(host+linux+windows)/test -race/staticcheck(SA1019 0)/
deadcode(no new) all pass.

-# 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.

-
-## [Unreleased]
-
-### Added
-- Shared multi-agent skills discovery: when present, `~/.agents/skills` is searched after the primary
-  Zero skills dir (and before plugin skill roots). `zero skills list` / `info` and the runtime `skill`
-  tool share one multi-root discovery path; install/remove/lock still target only the Zero skills directory.
-- `SECURITY.md` with a private vulnerability-reporting path, `CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md`, this changelog, and
-  GitHub issue/PR templates.
-- Interactive `/theme` picker: bare `/theme` opens a popup that live-previews each palette as you move
-  and applies on select (Esc reverts).
-- Twelve built-in color themes alongside the `dark`/`light` built-ins — `dracula`, `nord`, `gruvbox`,
-  `tokyo-night`, `catppuccin`, `one-dark`, `solarized-dark`, `rose-pine`, `everforest`,
-  `solarized-light`, `dune`, and `neon` — selectable via `/theme <name>`, `--theme <name>`, or
-  `ZERO_THEME`. Every palette is contrast-audited to WCAG AA, and the new presets are additionally
-  audited after xterm-256 downsampling; see [docs/THEMES.md](docs/THEMES.md). The built-in light
-  theme was reworked for legibility.
-- `--theme <name>` flag for the TUI, accepting `auto` or any registered theme (previously only the
-  `ZERO_THEME` env var existed).
-- "Accessibility / Appearance" section in the README documenting `NO_COLOR`, `ZERO_THEME`, `/theme`,
-  and `ZERO_NO_FADE`.
-
-### Changed
-- Provider connectivity health checks now allow loopback hosts for explicitly user-configured local
-  providers (Ollama / LM Studio), so the keyless local-model path verifies instead of failing with
-  "localhost hosts are blocked". The SSRF guard for fetched/remote URLs is unchanged.
-- Auth (401/403) errors now show a curated, actionable message pointing at `zero auth` / setup; the
-  raw upstream body is shown only under a verbose/debug flag.
-- No-provider / missing-key errors now point at `zero setup` and `zero auth`, and distinguish a
-  missing key from a rejected key.
-- `zero doctor` no longer reports "Overall: pass" when no provider credential is configured, and
-  formats the missing-language-server list for humans (no raw Go `map[...]`).
-- Raised the `faint`/`faintest` theme tokens (and the light-theme accent) to meet WCAG AA contrast for
-  the content they carry.
-- `NO_COLOR` is now honored for any non-empty value, per the no-color.org spec.
-
-### Removed
-- The inert `/input-style` slash command (it had no backend).
-
-### Fixed
-- README/`go.mod` Go-version mismatch and other stale public-release docs claims.

+### The terminal coding agent you fully own.
 
-Zero is an AI coding agent for your local terminal. It can inspect a repository,
-edit files, run commands, use browser/terminal helpers, and keep durable local
-sessions while you choose the model and the permission level.
+**Any model. Any provider. Your rules.**

+
+</div>
+
+---
+
+Zero is an AI coding agent that lives in your terminal. It runs a full agentic loop — reading, searching, editing, and executing in your repo — against **whatever model you choose**: frontier APIs, fast cloud inference, or a local model on your own machine. One interface, no vendor lock-in, no telemetry phoning home.
 
 ```bash
-zero
-zero exec "fix the failing test in ./pkg"
-zero exec --output-format stream-json < turns.jsonl
+zero                                          # interactive TUI
+zero exec "fix the failing test in ./pkg"     # headless one-shot
+zero exec -o stream-json < turns.jsonl        # programmatic, for scripts & CI
 ```
 
+> Zero treats the **model as a swappable, per-task choice** and **never mutates your system without a permission decision**.
+
 ## Why Zero
 
-- **Use the model you want.** Bring OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter,
-  DeepSeek, Mistral, xAI, Qwen, Kimi, GitHub Models, Ollama, LM Studio, or any
-  OpenAI-/Anthropic-compatible endpoint.
-- **Stay in control.** File writes, shell commands, network access, and
-  out-of-workspace writes go through Zero's permission and sandbox policy.
-- **Works in the terminal.** The TUI has model/provider pickers, image input,
-  slash commands, live plan/tool rendering, scrollback, themes, and resume/fork
-  support.
-- **Works without the TUI.** `zero exec` is scriptable, supports text/JSON/
-  stream-JSON I/O, isolated worktrees, spec-first runs, and meaningful exit
-  codes for CI.
-- **Keeps context local.** Sessions are stored on disk, searchable, resumable,
-  and never uploaded as telemetry by Zero.
-- **Extensible when you need it.** Use MCP servers, skills, plugins, hooks, and
-  specialist subagents from the same CLI.
+- 🔌 **25+ providers, one interface** — OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Ollama (local & cloud), LM Studio, OpenRouter, Groq, DeepSeek, Mistral, xAI, Qwen, Kimi, GitHub Models, and any OpenAI- or Anthropic-compatible endpoint. Switch mid-session with `/model`.
+- 🖥️ **A TUI that feels premium** — truecolor Bubble Tea interface with a first-run setup wizard, searchable live model picker, scrollback, themes, image input, and slash commands for everything.
+- 🤖 **Headless & scriptable** — `zero exec` with `text` / `json` / `stream-json` I/O, session resume & fork, isolated `--worktree` runs, and meaningful exit codes. Built for CI.
+- 🧠 **Subagents** — delegate to built-in `worker`, `explorer`, and `code-review` specialists (or generate your own) that run as real background tasks, even out-of-process.
+- 📋 **Spec mode** — have the agent draft a spec first, review and approve it, *then* let it build. No more runaway sessions.
+- 📈 **Mid-run model escalation** — start cheap, and let the agent request a stronger model only when it hits a wall (`--allow-escalation`).
+- 🗺️ **Repo intelligence** — deterministic repo maps, workspace indexing, and context-budget reports keep the agent grounded in *your* codebase, not hallucinations.
+- ⏰ **Scheduled agents** — `zero cron` runs file-backed, dependency-free agent jobs on a schedule.
+- 🛡️ **Safe by default** — permission-gated mutations, autonomy ceilings, sandbox policy (writes stay inside the workspace unless you grant extra directories with `--add-dir` / `/add-dir`), and secret redaction everywhere. Unsafe mode is an explicit, loudly-labeled opt-in.
+- 💾 **Durable sessions** — append-only local event store with full-text search, resume, fork, and rewind. Your history never leaves your disk.
+- 🧩 **Extensible** — skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP (Zero is both an MCP client *and* an MCP server).
 
-## Install
-
-### npm
+## Quick start
 
 ```bash
-npm install -g @gitlawb/zero
-zero
-```
-
-The npm package is a small wrapper whose platform build (Linux and macOS on
-x64/arm64, Windows on x64 — including the browser/terminal control helpers)
-installs as an optional dependency straight from the npm registry — no install
-scripts, no downloads outside npm. Bun, pnpm, and yarn work the same way with
-no trust or approval steps. Installs that skip optional dependencies
-(`--omit=optional`) still work: the wrapper fetches the binary from the
-matching GitHub Release whenever it is missing. Windows on ARM runs the x64
-build under emulation. See [docs/NPM_PACKAGING.md](docs/NPM_PACKAGING.md) for
-how the package is put together.
-
-### Install scripts
-
-Linux/macOS:
-
-```bash
-curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Gitlawb/zero/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
-```
-
-Windows PowerShell:
-
-```powershell
-irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Gitlawb/zero/main/scripts/install.ps1 | iex
-```
-
-### From source
-
-Source builds require Go 1.26.5+.
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero.git
-cd zero
+# run from source (requires Go 1.24+)
 go run ./cmd/zero
+
+# or install a release binary
+scripts/install.sh                                          # Linux / macOS
+powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts/install.ps1  # Windows
 ```
 
-Release installers and the npm wrapper require published GitHub Release assets.
-If you are testing before the first public release, build from source:
+First launch opens a **guided setup wizard** — pick a provider, paste a key, choose a model, done. Or do it non-interactively:
 
 ```bash
-go build -o zero ./cmd/zero
+export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...      # or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, GEMINI_API_KEY, GROQ_API_KEY, ...
+zero setup                        # guided first-run provider setup
+zero doctor                       # verify config, keys, and connectivity
 ```
 
-On Linux, build the sandbox helper too if you want native sandboxing:
+Local models need no key at all:
 
 ```bash
-go build -o zero-linux-sandbox ./cmd/zero-linux-sandbox
-go build -o zero-seccomp ./cmd/zero-seccomp   # optional compatibility wrapper
-```
-
-Put `zero` and `zero-linux-sandbox` in the same directory on `PATH`
-(`~/.local/bin` is a good default). macOS does not need an extra helper binary.
-Windows source builds can use the main `zero.exe` as their sandbox helper; release
-archives still ship standalone Windows helper executables.
-
-More install details: [docs/INSTALL.md](docs/INSTALL.md).
-
-## First Run
-
-Start the TUI:
-
-```bash
-zero
-```
-
-The setup wizard helps you pick a provider and model. You can also configure
-providers from the command line:
-
-```bash
-zero setup
+# Ollama or LM Studio running locally? Zero finds them.
 zero providers list
-zero models list
-zero doctor
 ```
 
-For API providers, set the matching environment variable before setup or enter
-the key in the wizard:
+## The TUI
 
-```bash
-export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
-export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=...
-export GEMINI_API_KEY=...
-export AIMLAPI_API_KEY=...
-export LONGCAT_API_KEY=...
-export FIREWORKS_API_KEY=...
-export MINIMAX_API_KEY=...
-export MINIMAXI_API_KEY=...
-```
+Type to chat, **Enter** to send. `/` opens command suggestions, **Shift+Tab** cycles permission modes, **Ctrl+C** exits.
 
-To configure AI/ML API directly, run:
-
-```bash
-zero providers setup aimlapi --set-active
-```
-
-To configure Meituan LongCat (LongCat-2.0) directly, run:
-
-```bash
-zero providers setup longcat --set-active
-```
-
-To configure Fireworks AI directly, run:
-
-```bash
-zero providers setup fireworks --set-active
-```
-
-MiniMax presets use the Anthropic-compatible endpoints for the global and China
-regions:
-
-```bash
-zero providers add minimax --set-active
-zero providers add minimaxi-cn --set-active
-```
-
-To use the OpenAI-compatible endpoints instead, add a custom compatible profile
-for the required region:
-
-```bash
-zero providers add custom-openai-compatible \
-  --name minimax-openai \
-  --model MiniMax-M3 \
-  --base-url https://api.minimax.io/v1 \
-  --api-key-env MINIMAX_API_KEY \
-  --set-active
-
-zero providers add custom-openai-compatible \
-  --name minimax-cn-openai \
-  --model MiniMax-M3 \
-  --base-url https://api.minimaxi.com/v1 \
-  --api-key-env MINIMAXI_API_KEY \
-  --set-active
-```
-
-For local models, run Ollama or LM Studio and then use `zero setup` or
-`zero providers detect`.
-
-## Daily Use
-
-### Interactive TUI
-
-```bash
-zero
-```
-
-Useful controls:
-
-| Control | Action |
+| | |
 |---|---|
-| `Enter` | send the prompt |
-| `/` | open slash-command suggestions |
-| `Ctrl+X` then letter | common slash commands (e.g. `m` → `/model`; `Ctrl+X` `?` for full list) |
-| `Ctrl+P` / `Ctrl+N` | previous / next item in menus (arrows still work) |
-| `Shift+Tab` | cycle permission mode |
-| `Ctrl+B` | show/hide the sidebar |
-| `Ctrl+C` | cancel, exit, or return from a `/btw` conversation |
+| `/model` `/provider` | switch model or provider mid-session (searchable picker) |
+| `/spec` `/plan` | spec-mode drafting and live plan view |
+| `/image` | attach images for vision models |
+| `/resume` `/rewind` | time-travel across sessions |
+| `/compact` `/context` | manage the context window |
+| `/permissions` `/tools` | inspect what the agent can touch |
+| `/add-dir` | grant an extra write directory for the session, or list current write roots |
+| `/theme` `/style` | make it yours |
+| `/doctor` `/usage` `/config` | health, cost, and config without leaving the chat |
 
-Common slash commands:
+Turn-completion notifications (terminal bell / OSC-9) ping you when the agent finishes or needs input — go make coffee.
 
-| Command | Purpose |
-|---|---|
-| `/model`, `/provider` | switch the active model/provider |
-| `/spec`, `/plan` | draft and review a plan before building |
-| `/image` | attach an image for vision-capable models |
-| `/resume`, `/rewind` | continue or roll back local sessions |
-| `/btw [question]` | ask in an isolated fork without adding the side conversation to the main session |
-| `/loop` | repeat a prompt or custom `/command` on an interval (`/loop 5m /babysit-prs`) or self-paced |
-| `/compact`, `/context` | manage context usage |
-| `/permissions`, `/tools` | inspect available tools and policy |
-| `/add-dir` | allow an extra write directory for this session |
-| `/theme`, `/doctor`, `/config` | adjust appearance and inspect setup |
-
-### Headless `exec`
+## Headless `exec`
 
 ```bash
-zero exec "explain internal/agent/loop.go"
-zero exec --model claude-sonnet-4.5 "refactor the config loader"
+# one-shot
+zero exec "explain internal/agent/loop.go and suggest one improvement"
+
+# pick a model and mode preset per task
+zero exec --model claude-sonnet-4.5 --mode deep "refactor the session store"
+
+# spec-first: draft → review → approve → build
 zero exec --use-spec "add rate limiting to the API client"
-zero exec --worktree "try the migration in an isolated worktree"
-zero exec --resume
-zero exec --fork <session-id> "try the other approach"
-```
 
-Programmatic use:
+# run in an isolated git worktree, escalate model only if needed
+zero exec -w --allow-escalation "migrate the config loader to v2"
 
-```bash
+# multi-turn programmatic I/O over stdio
 zero exec --input-format stream-json --output-format stream-json < turns.jsonl
+
+# resume or fork any previous session
+zero exec --resume            # latest
+zero exec --fork <session-id> "now try the other approach"
 ```
 
-The stream-JSON contract is documented in
-[docs/STREAM_JSON_PROTOCOL.md](docs/STREAM_JSON_PROTOCOL.md).
+Key flags: `-m/--model` · `--mode <smart|deep|fast|large|precise>` · `--image` · `--use-spec` · `--auto <low|medium|high>` · `--enabled-tools/--disabled-tools` · `-w/--worktree` · `--add-dir <path>` (repeatable) · `--resume/--fork` · `--allow-escalation` · `--notify` · `-o <text|json|stream-json>`.
 
-## Safety Model
+stdout carries **only** program output; logs go to stderr. Full contract in [`docs/STREAM_JSON_PROTOCOL.md`](docs/STREAM_JSON_PROTOCOL.md).
 
-Zero is designed to make side effects visible.
+## Commands
 
-- Workspace reads are allowed by default.
-- File writes are limited to the workspace unless you grant another directory.
-- Shell commands, network access, destructive commands, and elevated actions are
-  permission-gated.
-- `--add-dir <path>` and `/add-dir <path>` grant additional write roots without
-  giving the agent the whole filesystem.
-- Unsafe/autonomous modes are explicit opt-ins.
-- Secrets are redacted from tool output and logs where Zero controls the surface.
-
-Example:
-
-```bash
-zero --add-dir ../docs-site
-zero exec --add-dir ../shared "update both repos"
 ```
-
-Sandbox behavior can be inspected with:
-
-```bash
-zero sandbox policy
-zero sandbox grants list
-```
-
-## Web And Local Control
-
-Zero includes local file/search/edit/shell tools, `web_fetch` for public URLs,
-and MCP support for additional tools.
-
-For local dev servers, use shell commands such as `curl` through `exec_command`
-so the normal sandbox and permission policy applies. Long-running commands stay
-attached to a background terminal session and can be listed or stopped from the
-TUI.
-
-The npm package also includes browser and terminal helper packages used by local
-browser/terminal tools. Source builds can use the same helpers when they are on
-`PATH` or configured in Zero's local-control settings.

-## Extending Zero
+## Providers
 
-### Project and personal instructions
+Bring your own key — or no key at all for local runtimes.
 
-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.
-
-## Appearance And Accessibility
-
-| Control | Effect |
+| Tier | Providers |
 |---|---|
-| `NO_COLOR=<anything>` | disables color output |
-| `ZERO_THEME=<name>` | selects the startup theme (`auto`, `dark`, `light`, or a color theme like `dracula`, `nord`, `gruvbox`, `tokyo-night`, `catppuccin`, `one-dark`, `solarized-dark`, `rose-pine`, `everforest`, `neon`, `solarized-light`, `dune`) |
-| `--theme <name>` | selects the TUI theme from the CLI (same names) |
-| `/theme` | opens the theme picker inside the TUI (live preview; `/theme <name>` switches directly) |
-| `ZERO_NO_FADE=1` | disables streaming fade animation |
+| **Frontier APIs** | OpenAI · Anthropic · Google Gemini |
+| **Fast cloud inference** | Groq · OpenRouter · Together AI · DeepSeek · Mistral · xAI · NVIDIA NIM |
+| **Local — no key, no cloud** | Ollama · LM Studio |
+| **More clouds** | Ollama Cloud · DashScope (Qwen) · Moonshot (Kimi) · MiniMax · Z.ai · Venice · GitHub Models · and more |
+| **Enterprise (catalog)** | Amazon Bedrock · Vertex AI *(adapters in progress)* |
+| **Anything else** | any OpenAI-compatible or Anthropic-compatible endpoint |
 
-Meaning does not rely on color alone; diffs, permissions, and statuses also use
-text or glyph markers.
+The model registry tracks each model's capabilities, context window, and cost — and the live model picker discovers what your provider actually serves.
+
+## Tools
+
+| Tool | Purpose | Side effect |
+|---|---|---|
+| `read_file` · `list_directory` · `grep` · `glob` | explore & search | read |
+| `web_fetch` | fetch docs & references | network |
+| `update_plan` · `ask_user` | plan & clarify | none |
+| `write_file` · `edit_file` · `apply_patch` | create & modify | write (gated) |
+| `bash` | run shell commands | shell (gated) |
+| `Task` · `TaskOutput` · `TaskStop` | delegate to specialist subagents | per-tool gating |

+| `tool_search` | lazily load deferred tools (large MCP sets stay cheap) | none |
+| `escalate_model` | request a stronger model mid-run | gated by `--allow-escalation` |
+
+Every mutating tool routes through the permission policy **before** any side effect.
+
+### Extra write directories (`--add-dir`)
+
+Zero confines writes to the workspace by default. To let the agent write somewhere
+else, pass the repeatable `--add-dir` flag — it works for both the interactive TUI
+and `zero exec`:
+
+```bash
+zero --add-dir ~/Desktop/scratch                       # launch the TUI with an extra write root
+zero exec --add-dir ../sibling-repo "update both repos"
+```
+
+In the TUI, `/add-dir <path>` grants a directory mid-session (session-only), and a
+bare `/add-dir` lists the current write roots. To persist extra roots across
+sessions, set `sandbox.additionalWriteRoots` in the **global** user config
+(`~/.config/zero/config.json`); the key is deliberately ignored in project config
+so a checked-out repo can't widen its own sandbox. Flag and config sources merge
+as a union.
+
+Granted roots must already exist (the filesystem root is rejected), symlinks are
+resolved when the grant is made, and the same per-root symlink-traversal checks
+that protect the workspace apply to each extra root. Relative paths in tool calls
+still resolve against the workspace only, and network and destructive-shell policy
+are unchanged. A write denied outside all roots returns an error that suggests
+`/add-dir`.
+
+Two extra hardening flags are available in the `sandbox` config block, both **off
+by default** and safe to leave unset:
+
+- `sandbox.blockUnixSockets` (Linux) — on the bubblewrap backend, installs a
+  seccomp filter that denies `AF_UNIX` socket creation in the sandboxed command,
+  closing the Unix-socket channel that filesystem/network isolation leaves open.
+  Degrades gracefully (runs without the filter) when the `zero-seccomp` helper is
+  not installed alongside the binary.
+- `sandbox.monitorDenials` (macOS) — tails the unified log for this run's seatbelt
+  denials and appends them to a command's stderr as a `<sandbox_violations>` block
+  so blocked operations are visible. A no-op on OS versions that do not deliver
+  seatbelt denials to the queryable log.
+
+When the network policy is `scoped`, the `web_fetch` and `web_search` tools honor
+the same allow/deny domain list as sandboxed shell egress (host allowlisting is
+enforced on the macOS `sandbox-exec` backend; other backends collapse `scoped` to
+`deny` for these tools).
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+   TUI (Bubble Tea)      headless exec       MCP server      cron runner
+        └──────────────────────┬──────────────────────┘
+                  surface-agnostic agent core
+            (loop · typed event stream · tool registry)
+   ┌──────────┬──────────┬───────────┬───────────┬────────────┬──────────┐
+ providers   tools     sessions    specialist   repo intel   permissions
+ + catalog   registry  + search    + background + workspace  + sandbox
+ + registry            + rewind      tasks        index      + redaction
+```
+
+- **Surface-agnostic core** — the agent loop streams text + tool calls and emits one typed event stream consumed identically by the TUI, `exec`, the MCP server, and cron.
+- **Edges are interfaces** — `Provider`, `Tool`, `SessionStore`, and the permission policy are swappable.
+- **Model is data** — capabilities, cost, and routing live in the registry, never hard-coded.
+- **Pure Go** — one static binary per platform; the npm wrapper just delegates to it.

 ## Development
 
 ```bash
-go test ./...
-go run ./cmd/zero-release build
-go run ./cmd/zero-release smoke
-go run ./cmd/zero-perf-bench
-```
+go test ./...                     # full test suite (200+ test files)
+go run ./cmd/zero-release build   # compile the release binary
+go run ./cmd/zero-release smoke   # smoke-test it
+go run ./cmd/zero-perf-bench      # perf benchmarks (docs/PERFORMANCE.md)
 
-Experimental: `ZERO_OPENAI_TURN_SESSION=1` enables the optimized OpenAI turn
-session (background connection prewarm + request-prefix telemetry) for headless
-`zero exec` runs against official OpenAI profiles. Off by default; `0`/`false`
-disable. A/B-benchmark it by running the same `zero-perf-bench` suite with the
-variable unset and set.
-
-### 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="$(go env GOPATH)/bin"
-case ":$PATH:" in *":$gobin:"*) ;; *) export PATH="$PATH:$gobin" ;; esac
-```
-
-### Cross-Compile Examples
-
-```bash
+# cross-compile
 go run ./cmd/zero-release build --goos linux --goarch amd64
 go run ./cmd/zero-release build --goos windows --goarch amd64 --output dist/zero.exe
 ```

-Zero 是一个用于本地终端的 AI 编码智能体。它可以检查仓库、编辑文件、运行命令、使用浏览器/终端辅助工具，并在你选择模型和权限级别的同时保持持久的本地会话。
-
-```bash
-zero
-zero exec "修复 ./pkg 中失败的测试"
-zero exec --output-format stream-json < turns.jsonl
-```
-
-## 为什么选择 Zero
-
-- **使用你想要的模型。** 支持 OpenAI、Anthropic、Gemini、Groq、OpenRouter、DeepSeek、Mistral、xAI、Qwen、Kimi、GitHub Models、Ollama、LM Studio，或任何 OpenAI/Anthropic 兼容端点。
-- **保持控制权。** 文件写入、Shell 命令、网络访问和工作区外写入都经过 Zero 的权限和沙箱策略。
-- **在终端中工作。** TUI 具有模型/提供商选择器、图片输入、斜杠命令、实时计划/工具渲染、回滚滚动、主题以及恢复/分叉支持。
-- **无 TUI 也能工作。** `zero exec` 可脚本化，支持文本/JSON/stream-JSON I/O、隔离的工作树、规范优先运行，以及用于 CI 的有意义的退出码。
-- **保持上下文本地化。** 会话存储在磁盘上，可搜索、可恢复，且 Zero 不会作为遥测数据上传。
-- **可扩展。** 使用 MCP 服务器、技能、插件、钩子和来自同一 CLI 的专业子智能体。
-
-## 安装
-
-### npm
-
-```bash
-npm install -g @gitlawb/zero
-zero
-```
-
-npm 包是一个小型包装器，其平台构建（Linux 和 macOS 的 x64/arm64、Windows 的 x64，包含浏览器/终端控制辅助工具）作为可选依赖直接从 npm registry 安装——没有安装脚本，也不会从 npm 之外下载任何内容。Bun、pnpm 和 yarn 的行为完全一致，无需任何信任或批准步骤。跳过可选依赖的安装（`--omit=optional`）也能工作：只要二进制文件缺失，包装器就会从对应的 GitHub Release 下载。Windows on ARM 通过模拟运行 x64 构建。详见 [docs/NPM_PACKAGING.md](docs/NPM_PACKAGING.md)。
-
-### 安装脚本
-
-Linux/macOS：
-
-```bash
-curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Gitlawb/zero/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
-```
-
-Windows PowerShell：
-
-```powershell
-irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Gitlawb/zero/main/scripts/install.ps1 | iex
-```
-
-### 从源码构建
-
-源码构建需要 Go 1.26.5+。
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero.git
-cd zero
-go run ./cmd/zero
-```
-
-发布安装器和 npm 包需要已发布的 GitHub Release 资源。如果你在首次公开发布之前进行测试，请从源码构建：
-
-```bash
-go build -o zero ./cmd/zero
-```
-
-在 Linux 上，如果你需要原生沙箱，还需要构建沙箱辅助程序：
-
-```bash
-go build -o zero-linux-sandbox ./cmd/zero-linux-sandbox
-go build -o zero-seccomp ./cmd/zero-seccomp   # 可选的兼容性包装器
-```
-
-将 `zero` 和 `zero-linux-sandbox` 放在 `PATH` 上的同一目录中（`~/.local/bin` 是一个好的默认选择）。macOS 不需要额外的辅助二进制文件。Windows 源码构建可以使用主 `zero.exe` 作为沙箱辅助程序；发布包仍然附带独立的 Windows 辅助可执行文件。
-
-更多安装细节：[docs/INSTALL.md](docs/INSTALL.md)。
-
-## 首次运行
-
-启动 TUI：
-
-```bash
-zero
-```
-
-设置向导帮助你选择提供商和模型。你也可以从命令行配置提供商：
-
-```bash
-zero setup
-zero providers list
-zero models list
-zero doctor
-```
-
-对于 API 提供商，在设置之前设置匹配的环境变量或在向导中输入密钥：
-
-```bash
-export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
-export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=...
-export GEMINI_API_KEY=...
-export LONGCAT_API_KEY=...
-```
-
-要直接配置美团 LongCat（LongCat-2.0），运行：
-
-```bash
-zero providers setup longcat --set-active
-```
-
-对于本地模型，运行 Ollama 或 LM Studio，然后使用 `zero setup` 或 `zero providers detect`。
-
-## 日常使用
-
-### 交互式 TUI
-
-```bash
-zero
-```
-
-常用控制：
-
-| 控制 | 操作 |
-|---|---|
-| `Enter` | 发送提示 |
-| `/` | 打开斜杠命令建议 |
-| `Shift+Tab` | 切换权限模式 |
-| `Ctrl+B` | 显示/隐藏侧边栏 |
-| `Ctrl+C` | 取消或退出 |
-
-常用斜杠命令：
-
-| 命令 | 用途 |
-|---|---|
-| `/model`、`/provider` | 切换活动模型/提供商 |
-| `/spec`、`/plan` | 在构建之前起草和审查计划 |
-| `/image` | 为视觉模型附加图片 |
-| `/resume`、`/rewind` | 继续或回滚本地会话 |
-| `/compact`、`/context` | 管理上下文使用 |
-| `/permissions`、`/tools` | 检查可用工具和策略 |
-| `/add-dir` | 为此会话授予额外的写入目录 |
-| `/theme`、`/doctor`、`/config` | 调整外观和检查设置 |
-
-### 无头 `exec` 模式
-
-```bash
-zero exec "解释 internal/agent/loop.go"
-zero exec --model claude-sonnet-4.5 "重构配置加载器"
-zero exec --use-spec "为 API 客户端添加速率限制"
-zero exec --worktree "在隔离的工作树中尝试迁移"
-zero exec --resume
-zero exec --fork <session-id> "尝试另一种方法"
-```
-
-编程使用：
-
-```bash
-zero exec --input-format stream-json --output-format stream-json < turns.jsonl
-```
-
-Stream-JSON 协议文档在 [docs/STREAM_JSON_PROTOCOL.md](docs/STREAM_JSON_PROTOCOL.md)。
-
-## 安全模型
-
-Zero 旨在使副作用可见。
-
-- 工作区读取默认允许。
-- 文件写入限制在工作区内，除非你授予其他目录。
-- Shell 命令、网络访问、破坏性命令和提权操作需要权限授权。
-- `--add-dir <path>` 和 `/add-dir <path>` 授予额外的写入根目录，而不会给智能体整个文件系统。
-- 不安全/自主模式是显式选择加入。
-- 在 Zero 控制的界面上，密钥会从工具输出和日志中被脱敏。
-
-示例：
-
-```bash
-zero --add-dir ../docs-site
-zero exec --add-dir ../shared "更新两个仓库"
-```
-
-沙箱行为可以通过以下方式检查：
-
-```bash
-zero sandbox policy
-zero sandbox grants list
-```
-
-## Web 和本地控制
-
-Zero 包含本地文件/搜索/编辑/Shell 工具、用于公共 URL 的 `web_fetch`，以及用于额外工具的 MCP 支持。
-
-对于本地开发服务器，使用 Shell 命令（如通过 `exec_command` 的 `curl`），这样正常的沙箱和权限策略就会生效。长时间运行的命令保持附加到后台终端会话，可以从 TUI 中列出或停止。
-
-npm 包还包含本地浏览器/终端工具使用的浏览器和终端辅助包。源码构建可以在它们位于 `PATH` 上或在 Zero 的本地控制设置中配置时使用相同的辅助工具。
-

-# Security Policy
-
-Zero is a terminal coding agent: it reads and edits files in your repository and can run shell
-commands and call external model/tool endpoints. We take security reports seriously.
-
-## Reporting a vulnerability
-
-**Please do not open a public issue for security vulnerabilities.**
-
-Report privately through GitHub's private vulnerability reporting:
-
-1. Go to the repository's **Security** tab → **Report a vulnerability** (GitHub Security Advisories).
-2. Describe the issue, the affected version/commit, reproduction steps, and the impact.
-
-If you cannot use GitHub Security Advisories, open a regular issue that contains **only** a request to
-be contacted for a security report (no details), and a maintainer will arrange a private channel.
-
-Please include, where possible:
-
-- The version, branch, or commit affected.
-- A minimal reproduction and the impact (e.g. sandbox escape, secret exposure, RCE).
-- Any logs or output, with secrets redacted.
-
-## What to expect
-
-- We aim to acknowledge a report within a few business days.
-- We will work with you on a fix and a coordinated disclosure timeline, and credit you in the release
-  notes unless you prefer to remain anonymous.
-
-## Scope notes
-
-- Findings that require a malicious local user who already controls the machine running Zero, or that
-  depend on a user explicitly disabling the sandbox (`--skip-permissions-unsafe`), are generally
-  out of scope — but please report anything you are unsure about.
-- Zero sends no telemetry. Network calls go to the model/tool providers you configure (and, for
-  keyless web search, to the documented Firecrawl endpoint — see the README).

-# 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).

-# 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.
-
-If you only want to *use* Zero, the [README](../README.md) is enough. This page is for the other three jobs:
-
-1. Tell the agent about *your* project (drop an `AGENTS.md` in your repo).
-2. Add new specialist sub-agents.
-3. Wire Zero into the rest of your toolchain (MCP, skills, hooks, plugins).
-
-## 1. Drop a project `AGENTS.md`
-
-When Zero starts in a directory, it looks for project-level instructions and injects them into the system prompt. The lookup walks from your current working directory **up to the nearest git root** and reads the first matching file at each level — general rules at the repo root, more specific rules in sub-trees. Files are labeled with their directory in the prompt (e.g. `## Project guidelines (services/api/AGENTS.md)`).
-
-Accepted file names, in priority order at each level:
-
-| Path | Notes |
-| --- | --- |
-| `./AGENTS.md` | The classic spot — committed to your repo, shared with the team. |
-| `./ZERO.md` | Brand-specific alias. Same format, lower priority. |
-| `./.zero/AGENTS.md` | Project-local, hidden, gitignored. Personal notes that stay out of git. |
-
-Matching is **case-insensitive** on the basename, so `AGENTS.md`, `Agents.md`, and `agents.md` resolve to the same file on Windows and macOS. The git-tracked filename in this repo is `AGENTS.md` — keep that on case-sensitive filesystems (Linux, the WSL filesystem, or a CI runner) to match what the loader looks for.
-
-Both files use the same format. YAML frontmatter is optional; the markdown body is loaded as instructions for the agent. Zero reads the file once at session start, so changes take effect on the next `zero` launch — not mid-session.
-
-```markdown
-# Project conventions for <your project>
-
-- Build with `make`, not `go build` directly.
-- Tests live next to the source file (`foo_test.go` next to `foo.go`).
-- Run `make lint` before opening a PR.
-- Never edit files under `third_party/` — those are vendored.
-```
-
-Tips:
-
-- Keep each file under ~8 KiB. Zero caps the **total** across all matched files at 32 KiB; everything past the cap is dropped.
-- Re-state rules in the imperative voice: "Run `make lint`", not "you should consider running the linter".
-- Don't put secrets, model IDs, or environment-specific paths in `AGENTS.md`. Use `config.json` for those.
-- In a monorepo, drop a narrower `AGENTS.md` in each sub-tree (e.g. `services/api/AGENTS.md`). Zero picks those up automatically when you launch from inside the sub-tree.
-- A YAML frontmatter block (`---\n...\n---`) at the top is preserved verbatim in the injected prompt but is not parsed for `globs:` or `alwaysApply:` scoping today — keep the body self-contained.
-
-### Personal guidelines, across every project
-
-For preferences that follow *you*, not a specific repo (tone, tooling habits, workflow), drop a `ZERO.md` in your user config directory: `~/.config/zero/ZERO.md` on Linux/macOS, `%AppData%\zero\ZERO.md` on Windows — the same directory as `config.json` and your personal specialists. Same format and 8 KiB cap as the project files above, and the same case-insensitive basename match.
-
-This file is injected as its own `## User guidelines` section, before the project's `AGENTS.md`/`ZERO.md`, and is labeled as personal preference in the prompt: project guidelines are the later, more specific instruction and take precedence over it when the two conflict.
-
-## 2. Custom specialists
-
-Specialists are Zero's sub-agents. Three scopes, in priority order:
-
-| Scope | Path | Shared? |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| Built-in | compiled into Zero | yes — `worker`, `explorer`, `code-review` |
-| User | `~/.config/zero/specialists/*.md` | no — your machine only |
-| Project | `./.zero/specialists/*.md` | yes — the repo team |
-
-Project overrides user overrides built-in when names collide.
-
-A specialist is a markdown manifest with frontmatter and a system prompt:
-
-```markdown
----
-description: Reviews API changes for breaking-change risk and missing tests.
-tools: read-only,plan
----
-
-You review API changes. For every changed hunk in `internal/api/` or any file
-that ends in `_api.go`:
-
-1. Confirm the public signature is backward-compatible, or note the breaking
-   change explicitly with the migration path.
-2. Confirm a corresponding test exists in `internal/api/*_test.go` and that
-   the new behaviour is exercised.
-3. Flag any new exported symbol without a doc comment.
-
-Reply with one JSON object per finding: `{"file", "line", "severity", "message", "fix"}`.
-```
-
-CLI management (the prompt is passed inline via `--prompt`):
-
-```bash
-zero specialist list
-zero specialist show api-reviewer
-zero specialist create api-reviewer \
-    --project \
-    --description "Reviews API changes" \
-    --tools read-only,plan \
-    --prompt "$(cat api-reviewer.md)"
-zero specialist edit api-reviewer --project
-zero specialist delete api-reviewer --project
-zero specialist path                       # prints the resolved specialists directory
-```
-
-The full format spec (frontmatter fields, tool scopes, prompt conventions) is in [`docs/SPECIALISTS.md`](SPECIALISTS.md).
-
-> **Roadmap.** An in-UI specialist manager (create / edit / delete / preview) is on the backlog. Today you use the `zero specialist` CLI subcommands above.
-
-## 3. Skills
-
-Skills are markdown instruction packs the agent can pull in on demand. Each skill is a directory containing a `SKILL.md`. Standalone project skill directories are not supported in this version (shared project-wide skills must go in `AGENTS.md` or as a hook). However, project plugins (section 6) may bundle skills, which are merged into the active run.
-
-Discovery roots (earlier wins on name collisions):
-
-1. **Primary Zero dir** — `$ZERO_SKILLS_DIR` if set, else `$XDG_DATA_HOME/zero/skills`, else `~/.local/share/zero/skills/`
-2. **Shared multi-agent dir** — `~/.agents/skills/` when present (read-only discovery; never an install target)
-3. **Plugin skill roots** — skills bundled by active plugins (section 6)
-
-A missing directory is fine — Zero just omits it. Management commands (`zero skill add` / `zero skill remove`) always write to the primary Zero dir only; `list` / `info` search primary + `~/.agents/skills`. `skill info` reports lock source/hash when present and whether the on-disk `SKILL.md` has drifted from the recorded hash.
-
-```text
-~/.local/share/zero/skills/          # primary (install/remove target)
-  run-benchmarks/
-    SKILL.md
-  write-changelog/
-    SKILL.md
-
-~/.agents/skills/                    # optional shared multi-agent root
-  shared-review/
-    SKILL.md
-```
-
-`SKILL.md` format:
-
-```markdown
----
-description: Run the project's benchmark suite and summarize the deltas.
----
-
-# Run benchmarks
-
-1. `make bench` — captures the wall-clock and RSS before and after.
-2. `benchstat before.txt after.txt` — diffs the two.
-3. Report any regression > 5% with the function name and the previous value.
-```
-
-Only `name` and `description` are recognized in the frontmatter today. The `name` defaults to the directory name. Within a single skills root, duplicate names are resolved by lexicographic directory order. Across roots, Zero loads the primary directory first, then `~/.agents/skills`, then plugin skill roots; earlier roots win name collisions. Plugin-declared skills (section 6) are merged into the active agent run at plugin activation time, so bundled skills appear in the available skills list and can be loaded with the `skill` tool.
-
-The `skill` tool lets the agent load any discovered skill by name (primary, agents, or plugin).
-
-## 4. Hooks
-
-Hooks fire shell commands on lifecycle events. Configure them in JSON:
-
-- User: `~/.config/zero/hooks.json`
-- Project: `./.zero/hooks.json`
-
-```json
-{
-  "enabled": true,
-  "hooks": [
-    {
-      "id": "block-rm-rf",
-      "event": "beforeTool",
-      "matcher": "bash",
-      "command": "/usr/local/bin/zero-hook-block-rmrf.sh",
-      "enabled": true
-    },
-    {
-      "id": "log-session",
-      "event": "sessionStart",
-      "command": "/usr/local/bin/zero-hook-log.sh",
-      "enabled": true
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-The `args` array (when present) is passed verbatim to `exec.CommandContext`. The actual hook payload — event name, matcher, tool call id, tool name, tool input, tool output, status — is delivered to the command as **JSON on stdin**, not via `${...}` substitution. A typical handler reads stdin and decides what to do:
-
-```bash
-#!/usr/bin/env bash
-# /usr/local/bin/zero-hook-block-rmrf.sh
-set -euo pipefail
-payload="$(cat)"
-if printf '%s' "$payload" | grep -q '"input":"[^"]*rm[[:space:]]+-rf'; then
-  echo "refusing rm -rf" >&2
-  exit 1
-fi
-```
-
-Events the agent emits (in dispatch order):
-
-| Event | Fires when | Matcher allowed? |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `beforeTool` | A tool is about to run | yes (tool name) |
-| `afterTool` | A tool just returned | yes (tool name) |
-| `sessionStart` | A session begins | no |
-| `sessionEnd` | A session ends | no |
-| `specialistStart` | A sub-agent is spawned | yes (specialist name) |
-| `specialistStop` | A sub-agent ends | yes (specialist name) |
-
-A hook's exit code decides what happens next: `0` continues, non-zero blocks the tool call (`beforeTool`) or surfaces an error (`afterTool`). Hook execution is recorded in the audit log; the audit is reachable from the agent's view of past actions, not from a dedicated `zero doctor` check.
-
-> **Roadmap.** An in-UI hooks manager is on the backlog. Today you edit the JSON directly.
-
-## 5. MCP — Model Context Protocol
-
-Zero is both an **MCP client** (it can call external MCP servers) and an **MCP server** (other agents can call its tools).
-
-### As a client — configure MCP servers in `config.json`
-
-```json
-{
-  "mcp": {
-    "servers": {
-      "docs": {
-        "type": "stdio",
-        "command": "docs-mcp",
-        "args": ["--port", "7777"]
-      },
-      "github": {
-        "type": "http",
-        "url": "https://api.example.com/mcp",
-        "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" }
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Manage via CLI:
-
-```bash
-zero mcp add docs --type stdio -- docs-mcp --port 7777
-zero mcp add github --type http --url https://api.example.com/mcp \
-    --header "Authorization=Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
-zero mcp list
-zero mcp check docs
-zero mcp remove github
-zero mcp oauth login github
-```
-
-Servers are merged from user and project configs (project wins on conflicts). Token-bearing values in `config.json` are sent verbatim — there is no `${env:...}` expansion — so prefer one of:
-
-- A wrapper script that sources the secret and execs the real command.
-- A `--header` value produced by command substitution (`"Authorization=Bearer $(print-token)"`) in a private shell config that you keep out of git.
-- A secret manager that injects the env var your MCP server reads on its own (the `command` and `args` then run inside that environment).
-
-Project MCP config remains supported for shared team servers, but a project layer
-that changes an existing server's target (`url`, `command`, or `args`) does not
-inherit user credentials. Clear or replace `headers`, `env`, or `oauth` explicitly,
-or use a new server name. OAuth tokens are bound to the resolved server identity,
-so changing a server target can require `zero mcp oauth login <server>` again.
-OAuth server names ending in `.<32 hex chars>` are reserved for token storage.
-
-### As a server — expose Zero's tools to another agent
-
-```bash
-zero serve --mcp
-zero serve --mcp -C /path/to/workspace
-zero serve --mcp --add-dir /path/to/extra
-```
-
-The server speaks MCP over stdio. Configure it from the receiving side as a `stdio` server whose command is `zero serve --mcp`.
-
-`-C/--cwd` sets the workspace root exposed as MCP resources and used by core tools. `--add-dir` (repeatable) widens that resource/tool scope beyond the workspace without granting the sandbox temp roots used by interactive runs.
-## 6. Plugins
-
-A plugin is a self-contained directory that bundles tools, hooks, and skills for one capability. Plugins live at:
-
-- User: `~/.config/zero/plugins/<id>/`
-- Project: `./.zero/plugins/<id>/`
-
-Each plugin has a `plugin.json` manifest:
-
-```json
-{
-  "id": "github-pr-review",
-  "name": "GitHub PR Review",
-  "description": "Adds review tools for GitHub PRs.",
-  "version": "1.0.0",
-  "tools": [
-    { "name": "list_prs", "command": "./tools/list_prs.sh" }
-  ],
-  "hooks": [
-    { "name": "pre-merge-check", "event": "beforeTool", "command": "./hooks/pre-merge.sh" }
-  ],
-  "skills": [
-    { "path": "./skills/review-checklist/SKILL.md" }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-Install and manage:
-
-```bash
-zero plugins add ./github-pr-review      # copy into ~/.config/zero/plugins/ or ./.zero/plugins/
-zero plugins list
-zero plugins info github-pr-review       # show manifest path, enabled state, lock metadata
-zero plugins remove github-pr-review    # alias: rm
-```
-
-A plugin is enabled by being present in the plugins directory and disabled by removing it (or by the user setting `"enabled": false` in its `plugin.json`). Plugins are not enabled or disabled by a CLI subcommand today.
-
-Plugin commands run with the plugin directory as their working directory. Use relative paths; the loader resolves them at activation time.
-
-> **Roadmap.** An in-UI plugins manager (browse, install, enable / disable) is on the backlog. Today you use the `zero plugins` CLI subcommands above.
-
-## 7. Configuration locations
-
-Five configuration sources, in precedence order (later sources override earlier ones):
-
-| Source | Path / Key | Notes |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| Built-in defaults | compiled in | Lowest priority. |
-| User config | `~/.config/zero/config.json` | Your machine. Never committed. |
-| Project config | `./.zero/config.json` | The repo. Committed (or not, your call). |
-| Environment | `ZERO_*` | Provider commands, secrets, skills dir override. |
-| CLI flags | `--model`, `--mode`, ... | Highest priority, per-invocation. |
-
-The user config holds things that should follow the user across projects (default provider, default model, theme). The project config holds things the team agreed on (provider catalog, sandbox policies, model restrictions).
-
-The sandbox `additionalWriteRoots` key is **ignored in project config** by design — a checked-out repo cannot widen its own sandbox. Set it in the user config or pass `--add-dir` per-invocation.
-
-## 8. End-to-end example
-
-A team that wants every contributor's Zero to behave the same way commits:
-
-- `AGENTS.md` — project conventions, build commands, do-not-edit lists.
-- `.zero/config.json` — provider catalog, default model, allowed tools.
-- `.zero/specialists/api-reviewer.md` — the team's PR-review specialist.
-- `.zero/hooks.json` — block `rm -rf` on `beforeTool`.
-- `.zero/plugins/internal-tooling/` — a plugin that adds the team's internal CLI tools to the agent's toolset.
-
-Each contributor adds only:
-
-- `~/.config/zero/config.json` — their personal API keys, theme, default mode.
-- `~/.config/zero/ZERO.md` — personal preferences that follow them across every project (see section 1).
-- `~/.local/share/zero/skills/` — personal skills they keep across projects.
-
-That's it. Run `zero` from the repo root and the agent has the team's full instruction set, every contributor's personal setup, and nothing else.

-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]
-

-    Exec --> Agent
-    ACP --> Agent

-
-    Agent --> Registry[Tool registry<br/>internal/tools.Registry]

-    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.
-
-```mermaid
-sequenceDiagram

-    participant Agent as agent.Run
-    participant Policy as filters + permissions + sandbox

-    participant Transcript as model conversation + session events

-    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 currently persists conversational messages and streams
-   tool/permission updates to the client.
-
-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:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    Result[Tool result appended to conversation] --> Next[Next provider request]
-    Next --> Decide{Model response}
-    Decide -- More information/action needed --> MoreTools[Request another tool]
-    MoreTools --> Result
-    Decide -- User input needed --> AskUser[Call ask_user or explain question]
-    AskUser --> Result
-    Decide -- Enough information --> Final[Final assistant answer]
-    Decide -- Invalid / empty / unsafe --> Guard[Agent guardrail, retry, denial, or stop reason]
-    Guard --> Next
-```
-
-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
-    participant User
-    participant TUI as Bubble Tea model<br/>internal/tui
-    participant Cmd as tea.Cmd goroutine<br/>runAgentWithOptions
-    participant Agent as agent.Run<br/>internal/agent
-    participant Provider as Provider.StreamCompletion
-    participant Tools as Tool registry + sandbox
-    participant Store as Session store
-
-    User->>TUI: type prompt / press Enter
-    TUI->>TUI: validate/gate submit and append visible user row
-    TUI->>Cmd: launch tea.Cmd with runID + cancellable context
-    Cmd->>Agent: agent.Run(prompt, provider, options)
-    Agent->>Provider: stream completion request
-    Provider-->>Agent: text / reasoning / tool-call deltas
-    Agent-->>Cmd: OnText / OnReasoning / OnToolCallStart callbacks
-    Cmd-->>TUI: runtimeMessageSink(tea.Msg)
-    TUI->>TUI: Update appends/updates transcript rows
-    TUI-->>User: View renders new frame
-
-    Agent->>Tools: execute collected tool call
-    Tools->>Tools: permission, sandbox, hooks, redaction
-    Tools-->>Agent: tool result
-    Agent-->>Cmd: OnToolCall / OnToolResult / OnPermission / OnUsage
-    Cmd->>Store: batch session events for resume/history
-    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.
-- **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.

-## From Source
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero.git
-cd zero
-go run ./cmd/zero
-```
-
-Build a local binary:
-
-```bash
-go build -o zero ./cmd/zero
-```
-
-Source builds require Go 1.26.5+.
-
-### Sandbox Helpers For Source Builds
-
-Release archives include the platform sandbox helpers. If you build directly
-from source, build the helpers you need:
-
-Linux:
-
-```bash
-go build -o zero ./cmd/zero
-go build -o zero-linux-sandbox ./cmd/zero-linux-sandbox
-go build -o zero-seccomp ./cmd/zero-seccomp
-```
-
-Put `zero` and `zero-linux-sandbox` in the same directory on `PATH`, for example
-`~/.local/bin`. `zero-seccomp` is kept as a compatibility wrapper; the sandbox
-helper applies the Unix-socket filter itself when that sandbox option is enabled.
-Linux native sandboxing also requires Bubblewrap to be installed.
-
-macOS uses the system sandbox and does not need an extra helper binary.
-
-### Termux (Android)
-
-Zero can run natively on Android via [Termux](https://termux.dev/). Build with
-`GOOS=android` to avoid the `faccessat2` syscall that is blocked by Samsung's
-seccomp filter on Android:
-
-```bash
-# Install Go in Termux
-pkg install golang
-
-# Build Zero for Android
-git clone https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero.git
-cd zero
-CGO_ENABLED=0 GOOS=android GOARCH=arm64 go build -ldflags="-s -w" -o zero ./cmd/zero
-
-# Move into PATH
-mv zero ~/.local/bin/
-```
-
-> **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:
-
-```bash
-pkg install proot
-proot -b "$PREFIX/etc/resolv.conf:/etc/resolv.conf" zero
-```
-
-Create a wrapper at `~/.local/bin/zero` to avoid typing proot every time:
-
-```bash
-#!/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/bash
-exec proot -b "$PREFIX/etc/resolv.conf:/etc/resolv.conf" ~/.local/bin/zero.bin "$@"
-```
-
-**Scroll.** On native Termux (not under PRoot), mouse scrolling works out of the
-box. The TUI uses Bubble Tea's `AllMotion` mouse mode by default. If you run Zero
-inside PRoot (e.g. through proot-distro), the scroll fix activates `CellMotion`
-to avoid PRoot's ptrace interference with the 1003 escape sequence.
-
-**Providers.** Zero works with any OpenAI-compatible provider on Termux. For
-example, to use OpenCode Zen's free tier:
-
-```bash
-zero providers add opencode \
-  --name opencode \
-  --model deepseek-v4-flash-free \
-  --base-url https://opencode.ai/zen/v1 \
-  --set-active
-```
-
-Windows source builds can use the main `zero.exe` as the command runner and setup
-helper through Zero's built-in self-dispatch path. If you want a release-style
-layout anyway, build the standalone helper executables next to `zero.exe`:
-
-```powershell
-go build -o zero.exe ./cmd/zero
-go build -o zero-windows-command-runner.exe ./cmd/zero-windows-command-runner
-go build -o zero-windows-sandbox-setup.exe ./cmd/zero-windows-sandbox-setup
-```
-
-## Release Archive Format
-
-Release archives are named:
-
-- `zero-v<version>-linux-<arch>.tar.gz`
-- `zero-v<version>-macos-<arch>.tar.gz`
-- `zero-v<version>-windows-<arch>.zip`
-
-Supported targets:
-
-- `linux-x64`
-- `linux-arm64`
-- `macos-x64`
-- `macos-arm64`
-- `windows-x64` (Windows on ARM runs this build under emulation)
-
-Each archive must have a matching `.sha256` file. The install scripts download
-both files, verify the checksum, and then copy the binary into the install
-directory.
-
 ## Updating
 
-Check for a newer release:
+Check whether a newer release exists:
 
 ```bash
 zero update --check
 ```
 
-Then reinstall with npm or rerun the install script for the version you want.
+For M2, updates are check-only. Re-run the installer to replace the local binary after reviewing the release.

+# M1 Headless Exec PRD
+
+Status: Draft
+Owner: Vasanth
+Milestone: M1
+Scope: `zero exec` CLI surface
+
+## Goal
+
+Ship the first production-shaped headless command for Zero:
+
+```sh
+zero exec "inspect this repo and summarize the next fix"
+```
+
+This command should be useful for local scripts, CI smoke runs, and later VS Code integration without pulling in the full future protocol, session, MCP, sandbox, or plugin roadmap.
+
+## Non-Goals
+
+- No daemon mode.
+- No JSON-RPC input protocol.
+- No MCP, plugin, marketplace, or subagent support.
+- No session resume/fork/search.
+- No new provider adapters in this slice.
+- No architecture rewrite of the agent loop.
+
+## User Stories
+
+1. As a CLI user, I can run one prompt headlessly and receive the assistant answer on stdout.
+2. As a script author, I can choose `text` or JSONL output.
+3. As a reviewer, I can see tool activity without corrupting text stdout.
+4. As a model tester, I can override the configured model for one run.
+5. As a cautious user, prompt-gated tools stay disabled unless I pass an explicit unsafe flag.
+
+## CLI Contract
+
+```sh
+zero exec [prompt...] [options]
+```
+
+Options for M1:
+
+- `-f, --file <path>`: read the prompt from a file.
+- `-m, --model <model>`: override the configured model for this run.
+- `-C, --cwd <path>`: run from another working directory.
+- `-o, --output-format <text|json>`: choose stdout format.
+- `--skip-permissions-unsafe`: grant prompt-gated tools for this run.
+
+The existing `zero -p "prompt"` shortcut remains as a compatibility path and should call the same runner.
+
+## Output Contract
+
+Text mode:
+
+- stdout contains assistant text only.
+- stderr contains tool rows, warnings, and errors.
+
+JSON mode:
+
+- stdout is newline-delimited JSON events.
+- Required event types for this slice: `run_start`, `text`, `tool_call`, `tool_result`, `final`, `warning`, `error`, `done`.
+
+## Exit Codes
+
+- `0`: success
+- `1`: unexpected crash
+- `2`: usage error
+- `3`: provider/config/runtime error
+- `4`: reserved for future tool failure policy
+- `5`: reserved for future permission-denied policy
+
+## Permission Behavior
+
+Default headless mode advertises only tools marked `permission: "allow"`.
+
+`--skip-permissions-unsafe` advertises tools that are not marked `deny` and grants prompt-gated tools through `ToolRegistry.run`. It must not bypass schema validation or direct tool execution safeguards.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- `go test ./...` passes.
+- `go run ./cmd/zero-release build` passes.
+- `go run ./cmd/zero-release smoke` passes.
+- `zero exec --help` documents the M1 flags.
+- Usage errors do not initialize providers.
+- Provider failures return exit code `3`.
+- Normal mode does not advertise `bash`, `write_file`, `edit_file`, or `apply_patch`.
+- Unsafe mode still uses the registry execution path.

-
-How `@gitlawb/zero` is put together on npm, why it is shaped this way, and the
-rules the release pipeline must follow. Read this before touching
-`package.json`, `bin/zero.js`, `scripts/postinstall.mjs`,
-`scripts/npm/build-platform-packages.mjs`, or the npm-publish steps of
-`release-artifacts.yml`.
-
-## 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.

 ## Checklist
 
-- `package.json` has the expected package name (`@gitlawb/zero`), version,

-  free of lifecycle scripts (see NPM_PACKAGING.md).
-- `scripts/npm/build-platform-packages.mjs` emits platform payloads whose
-  `package.json` is `@gitlawb/zero@<version>-<platform>-<arch>` with matching
-  `os`/`cpu`, contains the executable binary and the vendored `helpers/` tree
-  with regular-file (non-symlink) `.bin` shims, and a wrapper payload with no
-  scripts, no dependencies, and the full five-alias `optionalDependencies`
-  matrix.
-- `scripts/postinstall.mjs` (the first-run fallback) resolves the correct
-  release asset name/URL per platform (`ZERO_INSTALL_DRY_RUN=1` prints the
-  plan), verifies the downloaded archive's SHA-256, and extracts only the
-  known binary basenames into place. `ZERO_SKIP_DOWNLOAD=1` opts out cleanly
-  (exit 0) and an unsupported platform/arch is a non-fatal skip.
-- The wrapper prefers the platform package binary over a previously downloaded
-  one, and `agent-browser`/`tuistory` run from the platform package's
-  `helpers/node_modules/.bin` shims.

+2. **Storage:** JSONL files vs SQLite — **Decide: JSONL** (inspectable, simple)
+3. **Package structure:** Single vs monorepo — **Decide: Single** until M4
+4. **Provider abstraction:** Direct API vs wrapper — **Decide: Direct** (portability)
+5. **Patch strategy:** apply_patch vs edit_file — **Decide: Both** (apply_patch for bulk, edit_file for small)
+
+---
+
+## 12. Team & Timeline
+
+**Team (3 people):**
+- You (lead + TUI + tools)
+- Backend dev (providers + core)
+- Designer (VS Code extension + docs)
+
+**Timeline:**
+- M0-M1: 4 weeks (foundation)
+- M2-M3: 6 weeks (polish + distribution)
+- M4-M5: 8 weeks (extensibility)
+- M6: 4 weeks (sandbox)
+- **Total v1.0: 6 months**
+
+---
+
+## 13. Why This Will Work
+
+1. **Proven patterns** — Based on clean-room analysis of existing terminal coding-agent UX patterns
+2. **Multi-provider** — Unique advantage vs Claude Code/Cursor
+3. **Open source** — Community contributions
+4. **Go** — Native binary, fast startup, strong concurrency, cross-platform CLI ergonomics
+5. **npm distribution wrapper** — Keeps JavaScript ecosystem installation while the runtime stays native
+6. **Clear milestones** — Ship early, iterate
+
+---
+
+**This is the real PRD. 13 sections, 24 features, 6 months to v1.0.**

-Every theme is a `palette` (a table of color hex tokens) plus one entry in

-`internal/tui/theme.go` turns a `palette` into the resolved `lipgloss.Style`
-set every renderer reads from the active `zeroTheme`. Adding a theme means
-adding a new `palette{...}` literal, a `themeRegistry` entry, and test
-coverage for the new palette (see below).
-
-Registry-wide tests in `internal/tui/theme_select_test.go` assert the basic
-WCAG AA text tokens, the gray-ramp order, the diff word-span pairs, and the
-selected-row band for every entry. The rendered-surface invariants beyond
-those (permission surfaces, selected-row secondary text, diff gutters, and
-the xterm-256 downsampling checks) are asserted per palette, not against the
-whole registry: `TestExtendedThemeContrastInvariants` and
-`TestExtendedThemeANSI256Contrast` enumerate the palettes they cover. A new
-theme must be added to those tests (or given equivalent palette-specific
-assertions), or CI can stay green while its permission, selected-row, and
-diff surfaces ship unreadable.

+# Zero WorkSplit PRD v3: Go-Native Product Ownership Plan
+
+Status: Draft v3.0
+Date: 2026-06-06
+Timeline: Active sprint plan toward v0.1, then v1.0 hardening
+
+Team:
+
+- Vasanth
+- Gnanam
+- Anandan
+
+## 1. Product Goal
+
+Zero is a terminal-first AI coding agent built in Go.
+
+The goal is not just to remove the old TypeScript runtime. The goal is to make Zero feel like a mature daily-driver CLI agent:
+
+- fast startup
+- strong command UX
+- safe autonomy
+- clear permission handling
+- useful local tools
+- reliable provider/runtime behavior
+- installable, updateable, and testable on real developer machines
+
+This document replaces the older migration-era work split. The Go runtime is now the main product baseline, so future work should focus on product depth rather than repeating the old M0 migration plan.
+
+## 2. Current Baseline On Main
+
+The current main branch is Go-native for the runtime and CLI.
+
+Implemented baseline:
+
+- `cmd/zero` is the primary CLI entrypoint.
+- `cmd/zero-pr-review` exists for PR automation workflows.
+- Core runtime packages live under `internal/`.
+- Current CLI surface includes `exec`, `config`, `models`, `providers`, `doctor`, `search`, `sessions`, `plugins`, `hooks`, `mcp`, `sandbox`, `update`, `worktrees`, `verify`, `changes`, `serve`, `help`, and `version`.
+- Core areas exist for agent flow, provider/model registry, tools, TUI, sessions, search, sandbox, self-verification, stream-json, usage, redaction, hooks, MCP, plugins, update, worktrees, and git/change handling.
+- TypeScript is no longer part of the repository baseline. The npm package keeps a small Node wrapper that delegates to the Go binary.
+
+Still needed before Zero feels production-ready:
+
+- Permission and sandbox UX must become clearer and harder to misuse.
+- TUI command flows need polish beyond basic rendering.
+- Platform behavior, especially Windows sandbox/update/install paths, needs stronger product ownership.
+- Review automation should produce useful, repeatable output for maintainers.
+- Release trust needs checksums, install smoke tests, and update verification.
+
+## 3. Ownership Rules
+
+- Every feature has one DRI.
+- UI, runtime, and platform work should be split by contract, not by vague file ownership.
+- Every PR must expose user-runnable behavior or a concrete contract consumed by another owner.
+- Docs, CI, and website work can support a product PR, but they should not be the whole lane for any owner.
+- Anandan must own platform product work, not only docs/site/CI.
+- Shared contracts should be agreed before large UI or integration work lands.
+- Keep PRs large enough to move the product forward, but still reviewable.
+
+## 4. Team Roles
+
+| Owner | Primary Role | Owns | Should Not Own Alone |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Vasanth | Product UX and TUI owner | Bubble Tea TUI, startup screen, command palette, slash command UX, tool rendering, permission prompts, sandbox violation rendering, verification/test/git output UX, themes, daily CLI feel | Provider internals, release pipeline, platform adapters |
+| Gnanam | Runtime core owner | Provider/model registry, provider factory, agent/runtime protocols, stream-json, sessions/search backends, config/doctor/usage/redaction, MCP/hooks/plugins backend, sandbox policy/grants, permission event contract | TUI composition, release packaging, platform-specific install trust |
+| Anandan | Platform product owner | Install/update/release trust, binary/package smoke tests, platform sandbox adapters, Windows behavior, PR/review automation CLI, CI as product verification, performance and release checks | TUI rendering, provider semantics, model registry ownership |
+
+## 5. Anandan Platform Product Rule
+
+Anandan should not be assigned only docs/site/CI forever. His lane must produce platform behavior that users and maintainers can run.
+
+Accepted Anandan work:
+
+- `zero sandbox policy` improvements and platform-specific sandbox behavior.
+- Windows sandbox adapter behavior and clear fallback reporting.
+- `zero update` verification, release metadata validation, and install smoke tests.
+- Package and binary checksums.
+- PR automation CLI workflows that reviewers can run locally or in CI.
+- CI jobs that prove real Zero commands work after installation.
+
+Not accepted as standalone Anandan work:
+
+- Docs-only updates.
+- Website-only updates.
+- Future VS Code notes with no current CLI behavior.
+- CI matrix changes that do not prove a user-facing command or release flow.
+- Release notes or checklists without executable validation.
+
+Docs and CI are still useful, but they must attach to real platform product behavior.
+
+## 6. Shared Contracts
+
+| Contract | DRI | Consumers | Purpose |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Provider stream events | Gnanam | Vasanth, Anandan | Lets TUI and automation render model output, tool calls, and errors consistently. |
+| Permission and sandbox events | Gnanam | Vasanth, Anandan | Lets TUI ask for decisions and platform code enforce them without bypasses. |
+| Session event schema | Gnanam | Vasanth, Anandan | Lets TUI, resume, search, and automation share one session model. |
+| Command metadata registry | Vasanth | Gnanam, Anandan | Lets slash commands, help, shell completions, and docs use one command source. |
+| Platform/release contract | Anandan | Vasanth, Gnanam | Defines install, update, checksum, smoke, and platform capability results. |
+| Stream-json protocol | Gnanam | Anandan | Lets CI and PR automation consume Zero output without scraping text UI. |
+
+## 7. Active Workstreams
+
+### A. Safe Autonomy
+
+Top priority. Zero must be able to run tools confidently while showing users what is happening and asking when risk increases.
+
+Planned PRs:
+
+- Vasanth: `feat/tui-sandbox-permissions`
+  - permission prompt UX
+  - allow, deny, and always-allow flows
+  - sandbox violation rendering
+  - `/permissions` or equivalent permission state UI
+- Gnanam: `feat/runtime-permission-events`
+  - structured permission request events
+  - sandbox grant contract
+  - stream-json support
+  - tests for denial, approval, and violation cases
+- Anandan: `feat/windows-sandbox-platform`
+  - platform sandbox capability checks
+  - stronger Windows behavior or explicit safe fallback
+  - `zero sandbox policy --json` output useful enough for CI and support
+  - platform tests where possible
+
+Done when:
+
+- High-autonomy tool attempts produce a clear prompt, decision, and result in TUI and headless modes.
+- Denied commands do not run.
+- Sandbox violations are visible and actionable.
+- Platform fallback is explicit, tested, and not silently unsafe.
+
+### B. Command UX And Daily CLI
+
+The CLI should feel like a product, not a collection of backend commands.
+
+Planned PRs:
+
+- Vasanth: `feat/tui-command-polish`
+  - `/model`, `/provider`, `/context`, `/doctor`, `/verify`, `/resume`, and `/compact` become clear interactive flows
+  - command results render consistently
+  - startup screen stays minimal until the user asks for panels
+- Gnanam: `feat/runtime-command-contracts`
+  - stable command data APIs
+  - provider/model/session/config result structs
+  - error types suitable for TUI rendering
+- Anandan: `feat/install-update-user-flow`
+  - `zero update` and install flows are user-runnable
+  - package smoke command verifies installed binary behavior
+  - CI proves the packaged command starts and reports version/help
+
+Done when:
+
+- A new user can run Zero, inspect config/provider/model state, and understand the next action without reading source.
+
+### C. Verification And Review Automation
+
+Zero should help maintainers verify changes and review PRs with repeatable local commands.
+
+Planned PRs:
+
+- Vasanth: `feat/tui-verification-results`
+  - render verify/test/git/review results in TUI
+  - show pass/fail/blocked states clearly
+- Gnanam: `feat/runtime-self-verify-contract`
+  - structured verification results
+  - stable test/change event model
+  - redacted logs for model and automation use
+- Anandan: `feat/pr-review-cli-workflow`
+  - make `cmd/zero-pr-review` or `zero review` useful for changed files, validations, and summary output
+  - support local and CI invocation
+  - avoid brittle text scraping where stream-json can be used
+
+Done when:
+
+- A maintainer can run one local command before review and get useful changed-file, validation, and risk output.
+
+### D. Release Trust And Distribution
+
+This is Anandan's main product lane after platform sandbox work.
+
+Planned PRs:
+
+- Anandan: `feat/release-trust`
+  - release metadata validation
+  - checksums
+  - install smoke tests
+  - update verification
+  - clear error output when release artifacts are invalid
+- Vasanth:
+  - consume release/update results in CLI UX where needed
+- Gnanam:
+  - ensure config, errors, and logs are structured and redacted
+
+Done when:
+
+- Users can install, run, verify, and update Zero with confidence.
+- Maintainers can prove release artifacts work before publishing.
+
+### E. Extensibility UX
+
+This comes after safe autonomy and daily CLI polish.
+
+Planned PRs:
+
+- Vasanth:
+  - `/mcp`, `/hooks`, `/plugins`, and related UI flows
+- Gnanam:
+  - harden backend contracts and lifecycle behavior
+- Anandan:
+  - automation and docs only after executable behavior exists
+
+Done when:
+
+- Extensibility feels discoverable and safe from the terminal.
+
+## 8. Immediate Next PRs
+
+These are the next reviewable slices. Do not use the old migration-era next steps.
+
+1. Vasanth: `feat/tui-sandbox-permissions`
+2. Gnanam: `feat/runtime-permission-events`
+3. Anandan: `feat/windows-sandbox-platform`
+4. Anandan: `feat/update-release-verification`
+5. Vasanth: `feat/tui-command-polish`
+6. Gnanam: `feat/session-rewind-compaction-contract`
+
+Recommended first parallel set:
+
+- Vasanth starts the TUI permission prompt and violation display.
+- Gnanam defines the permission event/grant contract.
+- Anandan owns Windows/platform sandbox reporting and tests.
+
+## 9. Command Ownership Matrix
+
+| Command Area | Vasanth | Gnanam | Anandan |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| `exec` | TUI and interactive UX | Runtime execution contract | Package smoke and platform validation |
+| `sandbox` | Prompt and violation UX | Policy, grants, and events | Platform adapters and Windows behavior |
+| `update` | Display and user messaging | Config and redacted errors | Primary owner of update verification |
+| `verify` | Result rendering | Verification backend contract | CI and release integration |
+| `changes` | TUI rendering | Change detection backend | PR automation integration |
+| `mcp`, `hooks`, `plugins`, `serve` | Discoverability and UI | Backend lifecycle and contracts | Automation/docs after behavior exists |
+| `sessions`, `search` | Resume/search UX | Storage, query, and event model | Stream-json and automation consumers |
+
+## 10. Definition Of Done
+
+For every code PR:
+
+- Add or update tests for the changed behavior.
+- Run `go test ./...` when Go files changed.
+- Run the relevant build command when CLI entrypoints changed.
+- Run package smoke checks when install/update/npm wrapper files changed.
+- Include manual CLI output or screenshots only when they prove a user-facing flow.
+
+For docs-only PRs:
+
+- State clearly that no runtime behavior changed.
+- Do not use docs-only PRs as a substitute for platform product work.
+
+For Anandan's PRs specifically:
+

+> **Authoritative re-verification (2026-06-13, branch `fix/audit-batch` off current `main`).**
+> All 87 rows the 06-11 snapshot marked `open`/`partial` were re-checked against the ACTUAL
+> current code by independent agents (the 06-11 ledger was verified on `fix/audit-critical-high`,
+> which has since diverged). Every `already_fixed` verdict was adversarially re-checked by a
+> second agent trying to prove the defect was still present — none were refuted.
+> **Result: 78 genuinely pending** (66 still_open + 12 partial); **9 rows were already fixed on
+> `main`** and are reclassified to `fixed` here. Full per-finding table:
+> [`2026-06-13-reverification.md`](2026-06-13-reverification.md).
+> Pending by severity: **high 2, medium 42, low 34**. Counts above reflect this re-verification
+> plus this branch's own fixes (scanner.go:81, compaction.go:58, worktrees.go:247).

+| Sev | Status | Location | Evidence |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| critical | fixed | internal/search/search.go:346 | search.go:363-428 findMatch maps lowered offsets back via lowerWithOffsets + snapRuneStart clamps context; /tmp probe of audit repro (100x'Ⱥ'+' hello') returns match {201 206}, valid UTF-8, no panic |
+| critical | fixed | internal/mcp/protocol.go:69 | 82b9c8d: const maxMessageBytes=64MiB (protocol.go:18) bounds both framing paths — Content-Length values above the cap are rejected (:90-92) and the newline-delimited readLine errors past the cap (:78-80); stdio transport switched to newline-delimited JSON. Covered by protocol_test.go; go test green |
+| high | fixed | internal/cli/usage.go:121 | usage.go:123-131: diff defaults to zerogit.DiffStat{}; resolveWorkspaceRoot/inspectChanges errors are ignored (degrade to net-LOC 0) instead of returning |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/transcript.go:137 | transcript.go:121-142 keys are run-scoped ("%d:%d:%s" with row.runID) plus effectiveToolRowID ordinal suffix; model.go:1501/1553/1572/1584 set runID on rows |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:853 | model.go:1034-1043 commandExit now calls cancelRun(), sets exiting, and defers tea.Quit while flushRunIDs is non-empty; deferred quit fires after flush at model.go:645-647 |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:599 | internal/tui/flush.go:11-30 settled-row flush frontier prints history to native scrollback via tea.Println; model.go transcriptView() renders only live tail from m.flushed; covered by internal/tui/flush_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:512 | model.go:614,633-637 flush goes to flushSessionID recorded at cancel time (model.go:1334) via appendSessionEventsTo (tui/session.go:76), not the active session |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/session_controls.go:176 | session_controls.go:182-184 blocks /rewind while len(m.flushRunIDs) > 0 ('cannot rewind while a cancelled run is still flushing'); covered by tui/session_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:584 | flush.go:71-120 settles rows into native scrollback via tea.Println; View()/transcriptView renders only rows from m.flushed (model.go:751-784) |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/transcript.go:137 | transcript.go:121-141 bakes runID into every key; within-run repeats get ordinal suffix via effectiveToolRowID (transcript.go:148, used at model.go:1493-1496 with callSeq) |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/rendering.go:525 | live cap 16 kept for tidy tail only; flushed scrollback cards use flushCardBodyMaxLines=400 (rendering.go:154-158) and Ctrl+O detailed view is uncapped (renderRowDetailed bodyCap:0, rendering.go:165; capCardLines treats <=0 as no cap, rendering.go:718-720) |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/transcript.go:135 | transcript.go:121-141 transcriptRowKey bakes runID into every key ("%d:%d:%s"); model.go:1501/1553 set row.runID and effectiveToolRowID suffixes within-run repeats |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:512 | model.go:614-637 — flushRunIDs maps cancelled run -> session id captured at cancel time (model.go:1334); flush goes via appendSessionEventsTo(flushSessionID,…) (session.go:76) when active session differs |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/run.go:26 | flush.go:71-120 settled-row frontier prints history to native scrollback via tea.Println; model.go:769 View renders only the unflushed live tail |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/transcript.go:139 | transcript.go:125 key is now "%d:%d:%s" (kind:runID:id) for all keyed kinds; transcript.go:148 effectiveToolRowID adds per-run ordinal suffix for within-run repeats |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:311 | model.go:355-360 Ctrl+C sets exiting and returns nil (no Quit) while flushRunIDs non-empty; deferred tea.Quit fires at model.go:645-647 once the cancelled run's session events flush |
+| high | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:853 | model.go:1034-1043 commandExit now calls cancelRun(), sets m.exiting, and defers tea.Quit while len(m.flushRunIDs) > 0 — same protection as Ctrl+C |
+| high | fixed | internal/cli/extensions.go:186 | internal/cli/extensions.go:191 passes Servers through redactMCPServerConfigs (:205-224) which replaces every env/header value with [REDACTED]; asserted by extensions_test.go:108 (go test ok) |
+| high | fixed | internal/mcp/protocol.go:42 | 82b9c8d: read() now accepts newline-delimited JSON frames (isJSONStart→decodeMessage) and only falls back to Content-Length headers for back-compat; write() emits one JSON message per line. Covered by protocol_test.go; go test green |
+| high | fixed | internal/streamjson/streamjson.go:310 | 3142de6: secretPatterns now anchored — sk keys require a word boundary plus a 16-char body and bearer requires a 16-char token — so 'task-list' and prose like 'bearer of bad news' are no longer redacted while real keys/tokens still are. Covered by streamjson_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/cli/cron.go:112 | 7a47059: cronAdd now consumes an explicit positional expr (cron.go:113-118) BEFORE applying recipe defaults, so a schedule given alongside --recipe is honored; extra positionals error. Covered by cron_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/providerhealth/providerhealth.go:285 | 600057d: default probe now uses newConnectivityClient — CheckRedirect re-validates every hop (capped at 5) and DialContext validates+pins the resolved IP, dialing the IP literal to close the DNS-rebinding TOCTOU. Covered by connectivity_client_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/sessions/store.go:547 | 12a3f62 + 8c75074: ReadEvents now drops a torn final record (last non-empty line) only when the file lacks a trailing newline (tornTailPossible); a fully-flushed corrupt line, or any malformed earlier line, still fails loudly. Covered by store_test.go |
+| high | partial | internal/cli/cron_run.go:173 | 7a47059: fireJob now re-reads the job before persisting and preserves an external pause/removal mid-run (cron_run.go:170-181), closing the pause-clobber. But internal/cron/store.go still has no flock/CAS, so the concurrent-scheduler race (two schedulers both seeing NextRunAt due) remains — single-scheduler is the supported model |
+| high | fixed | internal/tools/bash.go:104 | 0dbb5e0: hardenProcessLifetime (bash_proc_unix.go) sets Setpgid, a Cancel that SIGKILLs the whole process group (negative pid), and a WaitDelay backstop so a backgrounded child cannot outlive the timeout or hang Run(); Windows sets WaitDelay only. Covered by bash_tool_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/sandbox/runner.go:262 | 2eeaea7: sandbox-exec profile write rule now also allows the standard device nodes (/dev/null, …) and temp trees (/tmp, /private/var/folders, …) for parity with bubblewrap's --dev/--tmpfs; the workspace stays the only writable project location. Covered by runner_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/tools/apply_patch.go:161 | b6182bf: patch headers are now parsed with hunk line-counting (git-apply semantics), so a hunk-body line like '-- /etc/old' is no longer mistaken for a file header and a valid patch is accepted. Covered by write_tools_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/tools/grep.go:224 | b6182bf: glob now matches against the path relative to the SEARCH directory (ripgrep semantics) via filepath.Rel(target,path); a single explicit file matches by base name. probe path=subdir glob=*.go now matches subdir/a.go. Covered by file_tools_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/providers/openai/types.go:3 | 46d495c (+7044d36/6664f71): chatCompletionRequest gained reasoning_effort; zeroruntime.CompletionRequest.ReasoningEffort is threaded through the agent loop and mapped per provider — OpenAI reasoning_effort, Anthropic extended thinking, Gemini thinking budget; CLI gates the value against the resolved model. Covered by openai/anthropic/gemini provider_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/specialist/exec.go:166 | 39a9c55: BuildArgs always prefixes the session title with the specialist name and falls back to the bare name when description is empty, so AgentName is non-empty and a description-less run resumes. Covered by specialist/exec_test.go |
+| high | fixed | internal/agent/loop.go:233 | 95a6a8e: Run now sets result.FinishReason from collected.FinishReason (and from the after-max-turns final answer); Result.Truncated()/TruncationNotice() drive an exec-writer warning and a TUI system row when a response was cut off. Covered by loop_test.go |
+| high | partial | internal/hooks/hooks.go:372 | 17a91d9: a Dispatcher that runs configured hooks and audits each via NewAuditStore now exists and is tested (dispatch.go + dispatch_test.go), closing the 'zero non-test callers' gap for Select/audit. But it has ZERO production callers — not wired into the beforeTool/afterTool tool lifecycle — and runHooks still supports only `list` (extensions.go:94); no dispatch/edit CLI surface |
+| low | fixed | internal/cli/exec_writer.go:412 | exec_writer.go:415 and :404 now call cutRuneBoundary (:420-431) which backs up to the last UTF-8 rune start before slicing; added in audit-fix commit 6fb0231 |
+| low | fixed | internal/mcp/server.go:129 | server.go:129-132 adds `case "ping": return server.writeResult(message.ID, map[string]any{})` (introduced in commit 6fb0231, present at HEAD) |
+| low | fixed | internal/search/search.go:309 | search.go:318-322: resolveSessions now returns fmt.Errorf("zero session not found: %s", sessionID) when store.Get returns nil instead of an empty success |
+| low | fixed | internal/doctor/doctor.go:134 | doctor.go:129-141: providerConfigCheck now reports apiKey presence ("set"/"not set") based on profile.APIKey != "", with comment explaining the change; doctor tests pass |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/transcript.go:303 | truncateTUIOutput cuts via rune-boundary cutRunes (transcript.go:302,307-318); titles use cutRunes (session.go:112, spec_mode.go:305) and cutRuneBoundary (exec_sessions.go:90, exec_writer.go:420) |
+| low | fixed | go.mod:10 | go.mod:7-12 direct requires are now only bubbles/bubbletea/lipgloss/x-sys; glamour is gone entirely and x/ansi (line 18) and termenv (line 31) are demoted to // indirect |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:525 | agentResponseMsg completion path now invokes m.runCancel() before nil-ing it (model.go:651-658, with explanatory comment about the per-prompt leak) |
+| low | fixed | internal/imageinput/imageinput.go:58 | imageinput.go:56-66 os.Open failure now wraps real cause ("cannot open image %s: %w") and read failure "cannot read image %s: %w"; only a stat miss reports "not found" (:38) |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/session.go:93 | All three paths rune-safe: internal/tui/session.go:112 cutRunes(..., tuiSessionTitleLimit), internal/tui/spec_mode.go:305 cutRunes, internal/cli/exec_sessions.go:90 cutRuneBoundary(title, 80) |
+| low | fixed | internal/cli/exec_writer.go:412 | internal/cli/exec_writer.go:404 (truncateForStatus) and :415 (truncateForStreamJSONOutput) both use cutRuneBoundary defined at exec_writer.go:420-431 (backs up to utf8.RuneStart) |
+| low | fixed | internal/sessions/replay.go:237 | replay.go:245-256 cutPromptRuneBoundary (utf8.RuneStart backoff) now used at replay.go:174-177 and 238; titles rune-safe via cutRuneBoundary (cli/exec_sessions.go:90) and cutRunes (tui/session.go:112) |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/rendering.go:68 | footerText/commandFooterText/formatCommandFooterText/defaultCommandFooterText (present at b144cf9~1 rendering.go) are absent at HEAD; dead actionAppendToolCall/ToolResult enum values also removed from transcript.go |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/transcript.go:303 | cutRunes lands cuts on rune boundaries (transcript.go:305-318), used by truncateTUIOutput for tool-result text (transcript.go:302) and session titles (session.go:112, spec_mode.go:305) |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:853 | commandExit cancels the run, sets exiting, and defers quit while flushRunIDs is non-empty (model.go:1034-1043); deferred tea.Quit fires when the last flush drains (model.go:645-647), and new prompts are gated while exiting (model.go:1012-1014) |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/session.go:93 | cutRunes (transcript.go:307-318) cuts on rune boundaries; used by tuiSessionTitle (session.go:112) and truncateTUIOutput (transcript.go:302) for tool-result text |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/rendering.go:482 | rendering.go:526 — permission card action row now renders "[esc] cancel run", matching the KeyEsc fall-through to m.cancelRun() (model.go:391-393) |
+| low | fixed | internal/cli/update.go:37 | internal/update/update.go:136-142: normalizeVersionTag failure now falls back to currentVersion="0.0.0" so the check proceeds to the network call (landed in #158) |
+| low | fixed | internal/notify/notify.go:134 | notify.go:137 now drops `(r >= 0x80 && r <= 0x9f)` with comment that C1 includes single-byte CSI/OSC/ST introducers (landed in #158) |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/model.go:512 | model.go:616-624 the flushRunIDs (cancelled-run) branch of agentResponseMsg now records each usage event via recordUsageEvent → m.usageTracker.Record (session_controls.go:294) |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/rendering.go:490 | rendering.go:560-564 the ask card now echoes the in-progress answer: "❯ " + fill(zeroTheme.ink).Render(input) + accent cursor, appended to the card lines |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/view.go:227 | view.go:230-235 now matches `path == home` or strings.HasPrefix(path, home+os.PathSeparator) — a path-boundary check with a comment citing the /Users/alice2 sibling case |
+| low | fixed | internal/sandbox/risk.go:53 | defect not present: risk.go:11-50 patterns are package-level regexp.MustCompile compiled once at init (identical at audit commit b144cf9); per call only MatchString runs |
+| low | fixed | internal/modelregistry/catalog.go:36 | catalog.go:36 claude-haiku-3.5 extra capabilities now []ModelCapability{ModelCapabilityPromptCache} — ModelCapabilityVision removed (base withBaseCapabilities adds no vision), so SupportsVision is false |
+| low | fixed | internal/providers/providerio/retry.go:107 | retry.go:108-110 ShouldRetryStatus now returns true for `code == 529` alongside 429/503 (doc comment lines 99-107 updated to cover Anthropic overloaded), consistent with ClassifiedError's 529 rate-limit classification at providerio.go:224 |
+| low | fixed | internal/tui/spec_mode.go:301 | spec_mode.go:305 and session.go:112 now use cutRunes (transcript.go:307-318 backs off to utf8.RuneStart boundary); no byte-index title slicing remains |
+| low | fixed | internal/agent/system_prompt.go:89 | system_prompt.go:102-107 now walks cut back with `for cut > 0 && !utf8.RuneStart(content[cut])` before slicing, so truncation lands on a rune boundary (matches audit doc's rune-safe truncation fix claim) |
+| low | fixed | internal/config/writer.go:53 | internal/config/writer.go:55-74 — writeConfigFile now does os.CreateTemp + Chmod(0600) + write + os.Rename (atomic temp+rename, with explanatory comment at :53); go test ./internal/config -run Upsert passes |
+| low | fixed | internal/cli/exec_sessions.go:88 | exec_sessions.go:87-91: title = cutRuneBoundary(title, 80); helper (exec_writer.go:420-431) verified rune-safe by /tmp probe |
+| low | fixed | internal/cli/exec_writer.go:412 | exec_writer.go:404 (truncateForStatus/stderr) and :415 (truncateForStreamJSONOutput) both use cutRuneBoundary, which backs up to a utf8.RuneStart boundary |
+| low | open | internal/streamjson/streamjson.go:30 | repo-wide grep finds EventRestore only at its declaration (streamjson.go:30) — no emitter and not even test references; streamjson.go untouched by 6fb0231 or later merges |
+| low | open | internal/cli/cron_run.go:150 | cron_run.go:145-151: rec.Error still set only from errBuf on code!=0; outBuf (where stream-json error events land) is captured but never read |
+| low | open | internal/cli/exec_sessions.go:55 | exec_sessions.go:55 still constructs sessions.NewStore(sessions.StoreOptions{}) directly, and exec.go:375-389 PrepareExecOptions still omits the Store field; deps.newSessionStore is used by spec/usage/observability but not the exec run path |
+| low | fixed | internal/secrets/scanner.go:35 | [reverified 2026-06-13] already fixed on main: scanner.go:37 pattern is now `sk-[A-Za-z0-9_-]{20,}` (allows -/_ so sk-proj-/sk-svcacct- match), with comment at :35-36. Covered by scanner_test.go TestScanDetectsModernPrefixedOpenAIKeys |
+| low | open | internal/redaction/redaction.go:222 | redaction.go:221-235 pointer/map ptr added to context.seen and never deleted after subtree recursion, so a second (sibling) visit returns CircularReference |
+| low | open | internal/redaction/redaction.go:174 | redaction.go:174 `interface{ StackTrace() fmt.Stringer }` unchanged; grep finds no implementer in the module and go.mod has no pkg/errors or similar dep |
+| low | open | internal/zerogit/zerogit.go:417 | zerogit.go:418-420 fallback EnvRunner adapter still discards env (`_ []string`), so stagedSnapshotDiff's GIT_INDEX_FILE isolation is lost with a caller-supplied Runner |
+| low | open | internal/tui/commands_test.go:46 | internal/tui/commands_test.go:46 still defines commandTestStringSliceContains; repo-wide grep finds no callers, only the definition |
+| low | open | internal/tui/session_test.go:215 | internal/tui/session_test.go:215 'runtimeMessages := []tea.Msg{}' appended in RuntimeMessageSink at line 226 but never read in the test body (only runtimeMessageCh is consumed) |
+| low | open | internal/sessions/store.go:555 | store.go:554-556 timestamp() still time.RFC3339 (second precision); List ties broken lexically by SessionID (store.go:331-336), not actual recency, so Latest() can still pick the wrong session on same-second ties |
+| low | open | internal/tui/session_controls.go:165 | session_controls.go:165 still only increments compactRequests; sole reads are its own status display (lines 266, 280) with "Backend: state: pending integration" — no compaction is ever triggered by it |
+| low | open | internal/tui/model.go:837 | model.go:1012-1014 silently drops prompt submits while m.exiting (return m, nil — no feedback row); no exiting/flushRunIDs indicator anywhere in statusLine (view.go:113-139), composerLine, or any render path |
+| low | open | internal/tui/command_center.go:17 | tui/command_center.go:17-21 passes only Now/Runtime/Provider (no UserConfig/ProjectConfig) vs cli/observability.go:64-71; empty paths warn at doctor.go:120 and :273 |
+| low | open | internal/background/process_posix.go:38 | process_posix.go:39-47 still polls signal-0 on os.FindProcess(pid) while the Wait goroutine (specialist/exec.go:653) reaps the child; line 50 Kill() can hit a recycled pid |
+| low | open | internal/tools/registry.go:108 | repo-wide grep: OnSandboxDecision only at registry.go:19,108,116 — no caller or test ever sets it |
+| low | open | internal/sandbox/grants.go:146 | grants.go unchanged since #77: Lookup trims key (grants.go:146) but readState validates raw file keys via trimming ValidateToolName (grants.go:225-227,273) and keeps the raw map key, so a whitespace-padded key validates yet never matches |
+| low | open | internal/tools/read_file.go:89 | probe: max_lines=5 -> Truncated=true with no marker beyond '(lines 1-5 of 20)' header (read_file.go:102-111); rune-width sub-claim not reproducible (ASCII strconv.Itoa padding) |
+| low | open | internal/providers/factory.go:118 | factory.go:115 still `if !explicitProvider \|\| isImplicitOpenAI(...)`; isImplicitOpenAI (factory.go:159-164) requires TrimSpace(ProviderKind)=="" && TrimSpace(Provider)=="", which contradicts explicitProvider==true (factory.go:147-157), so it can never return true at its sole call site |
+| low | open | internal/providercatalog/catalog.go:46 | catalog.go:46 Public still declared; no constructor or descriptor ever sets it (always false); the only read is the vacuous guard in catalog_test.go:105, which already existed before the audit (added in 4accec5/#141) — no production read or write |
+| low | open | internal/verify/verify.go:215 | verify.go:215 RunLoop still defined, sole caller verify_test.go:207; production loop is selfverify.Run (selfverify.go:53-74) used by cli/workflows.go |
+| low | open | internal/specialist/output_tool.go:244 | output_tool.go:244 formatTaskOutput has zero callers (prod or tests); only formatTaskOutputSummary is used (output_tool.go:154) |
+| low | open | internal/specialist/exec.go:346 | exec.go:347-350: on SetPID error calls cleanupBackgroundPromptFile (runtime.go:73 deletes file/dir) and returns err with no recordSpecialistStop/UpdateStatus while child keeps running |
+| low | open | internal/agent/loop.go:188 | helpers.go:85 sets collected.Error = ctx.Err().Error(); loop.go:189-191 returns errors.New(collected.Error) before the ctx.Err() identity return at loop.go:193-195, so errors.Is(err, context.Canceled) still fails for that path |
+| low | open | internal/agent/types.go:183 | types.go:183 OnContext field and loop.go:102-103 emit site exist, but repo-wide grep finds no "OnContext:" assignment and no MeasureContext/ContextBreakdown use in cli/tui/cmd/contextreport (only tests) |
+| low | open | internal/agent/loop.go:1072 | loop.go:1120-1122 and loop.go:1129-1131 both still assign schema["items"] = propertyToRuntimeMap(*property.Items) |
+| low | open | internal/agent/loop.go:473 | loop.go:530-531 set requestEvent.GrantMatched/Grant but requestEvent is never read after the switch (post-run event rebuilt at loop.go:558); fallback at loop.go:510-511 unreachable since buildPermissionEvent always returns ok=true under the shouldRequestPermission gate (Prompt-permission tools, loop.go:751-758 vs 877-894) |
+| low | open | internal/agent/loop.go:183 | loop.go:184-186 retry CollectStreamWithOptions still passes only OnUsage; comment at loop.go:178-183 documents the OnText omission as deliberate anti-duplication, but streaming surfaces still receive only the aborted partial text |
+| low | open | internal/zeroruntime/helpers.go:104 | helpers.go:104 still does `collected.Text += event.Content` per StreamEventText (no strings.Builder); unchanged since audit commit b144cf9 |

+# Audit re-verification against current `main` (2026-06-13)
+
+Every pending (open/partial) row from `2026-06-10-deep-audit-status.md` was re-checked
+against the **actual current code** by an independent agent (the ledger was verified on a
+since-diverged branch). Every `already_fixed` verdict was then adversarially re-checked by a
+second agent trying to prove the defect was still present; **none were refuted** (all 9 hold).
+
+| Verdict | Count |
+|---|---|
+| still_open | 66 |
+| partial | 12 |
+| already_fixed (ledger over-counted) | 9 |
+| **genuinely pending (still_open + partial)** | **78** |
+
+Pending by severity: high 2, medium 42, low 34.
+
+## Already fixed on `main` (reclassify to fixed) (9)
+
+| Sev | Location (current) | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| medium | `internal/cli/cron.go:106-128` | The original defect (recipe set `expr=r.Expr` before the positional was consumed, silently ignoring a user-supplied expr) is gone: cronAdd now consumes the positional expr first at cron.go:113-114 (`if len(positional)==1 && expr=="" { expr=positional[0] }`), and the recipe only fills expr if still empty (cron.go:122-123); extra positionals error. Confirmed by TestCronAddExplicitExprOverridesRecipe (cron_test.go:95-118). |
+| low | `internal/cli/cron_run.go:198-205` | The original gap was that cronTruncate byte-sliced `s[:max]+"…"` and could split a multi-byte rune; current cronTruncate (cron_run.go:204) now returns `cutRuneBoundary(s, max) + "…"`, and cutRuneBoundary (exec_writer.go:420-431) backs up to a utf8.RuneStart boundary, so the rune-split defect is gone. promptExcerpt (cron.go:278) was already rune-safe. |
+| low | `internal/cli/cron_run.go:198-205` | Duplicate of the same underlying issue: the cited byte-slice `return s[:max] + "…"` for run errors (used at cron_run.go:151) no longer exists; cronTruncate now calls cutRuneBoundary(s, max) which lands on a UTF-8 rune boundary, so persisted run-error text can no longer be split mid-rune. |
+| low | `internal/cli/cron_run.go:198-205` | Duplicate of the same underlying issue: cronTruncate no longer byte-slices `s[:max]`; it uses the rune-safe cutRuneBoundary helper (cron_run.go:204), with a comment explaining the cut lands on a UTF-8 rune boundary, closing the run-record invalid-UTF-8 gap. |
+| low | `internal/redaction/redaction.go:217-231 (pointer), :232-252 (map)` | The pointer case now does context.seen[ptr]=struct{}{} (line 225) then delete(context.seen, ptr) after redactReflect returns (line 230); the map case mirrors this (line 240 add, line 251 delete). Comments at lines 226-228 explicitly state the pointer is dropped after recursion so a shared non-cyclic reference reached via a sibling branch is not mistaken for a cycle, exactly the originally-described defect, which is gone. |
+| low | `internal/sandbox/grants.go:392-406` | readState now rebuilds a new `normalized` map keyed by `key := strings.TrimSpace(name)` (grants.go:394, stored at :403) instead of retaining the raw padded file key, and Lookup indexes with `strings.TrimSpace(toolName)` (grants.go:172), so a whitespace-padded file key both validates AND matches. The ledger's premise ('unchanged since #77') is stale — this normalization was added in commit 3f3de1a (#170). |
+| low | `internal/tui/session_controls.go:196-241` | handleCompactCommand no longer just increments compactRequests: when sessionCompactor or hasSessionBackedCompactor() is available it sets compactInFlight and returns tea.Batch(m.runCompact(), ...), and runCompact()->compactActiveSession() actually calls sessionStore.PlanCompaction/RecordCompaction (replay.go:145/181). The 'pending integration' status string is gone (only a negative-assertion test references it), and sessionStore is always non-nil (model.go:272-274), so real compaction is triggered. |
+| low | `internal/zerocommands/contracts.go:169` | ProviderSnapshotFromProfile now sets APIKeySet via `strings.TrimSpace(profile.APIKey) != "" \|\| strings.TrimSpace(profile.AuthHeaderValue) != ""` (line 169) with a comment (lines 166-168) explaining auth-header-only profiles must not render as 'not set'; config/types.go:51 confirms AuthHeaderValue is a valid sole credential, and command_center.go:317/334 render apiKeyState(provider.APIKeySet) off this fixed boolean. |
+| low | `internal/zerogit/zerogit.go:209` | The remaining gap in the partial finding (ValidateMessage still byte-based `len(firstLine) > 72`) is gone: line 209 now uses `utf8.RuneCountInString(firstLine) > 72` with an explanatory comment, and truncateSubject (line 466) is already rune-based, so valid non-ASCII subjects are no longer rejected. |
+
+## Genuinely partial (a real gap remains) (12)
+
+| Sev | Location (current) | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| high | `internal/cli/cron_run.go:176-188 (re-read fix) + internal/cron/store.go:170-178 (Update, no lock)` | fireJob does re-read via store.Get and preserves an external pause (current.Status == StatusPaused at cron_run.go:186-187) and handles ErrJobNotFound/transient errors, closing the pause-clobber; but cron/store.go Update still just calls writeJob (temp+rename) with no flock/CAS anywhere in the package, so the concurrent-scheduler read-modify-write race remains exactly as the ledger noted. |
+| high | `internal/hooks/dispatch.go:112 (Dispatch); wired at internal/agent/loop.go:584,620 and constructed at internal/cli/hook_dispatch.go:51` | The primary gap is closed: the Dispatcher now has production callers and IS wired into the tool lifecycle - constructed in app.go/exec.go/exec_spec.go, assigned to agent Options.Hooks, and invoked at loop.go:584 (beforeTool, with veto via blockedByHookResult) and loop.go:620 (afterTool feedback). But the original finding's CLI-surface gap remains: runHooks in internal/cli/extensions.go:88-135 still supports only `list`/help with no dispatch/edit subcommand. |
+| medium | `internal/agent/compaction.go:280 (maybeCompact) / 83-96 (estimateTokens)` | The image-counting fix is present (estimateTokens line 92 adds len(message.Images)*imageTokenEstimate), but the remaining gap stands: maybeCompact's trigger uses estimateTokens(messages), which has no tool-definition term, and is called at loop.go:85 with no tools (the exposed tool defs are built afterward at loop.go:87). The tool-definition estimator estimateToolTokens exists only in the separate MeasureContext reporting path (context_measurement.go:53), not in the compaction trigger. |
+| medium | `internal/tui/rendering.go:292-336 (gap at :311)` | wrapPlainText now preserves explicit newlines (split on \n, :297) and each line's leading indentation (TrimLeft + reconstructed indent, :302-305), so code blocks survive. But the word loop at :311 still iterates strings.Fields(body), which collapses intra-line space runs, so mid-line column alignment within a line is still lost exactly as the finding describes. |
+| medium | `internal/tui/transcript.go:103-114` | The full-slice copy is genuinely gone (in-place append at transcript.go:100 with a comment about the old O(n²)), but hasTranscriptRow (transcript.go:108-112) still linear-scans every existing row computing transcriptRowKey per keyed tool/permission/ask append, and m.transcript is never pruned, so rehydration via appendTranscriptRow (session.go:145-146) remains O(n²). |
+| medium | `internal/tui/transcript.go:103-114` | Duplicate of the same finding: copy-on-append removed (transcript.go:96-100) but hasTranscriptRow (transcript.go:108-112) still linearly scans all rows per keyed row and the transcript is never bounded, so tool-heavy rehydration stays O(n²). |
+| medium | `internal/tui/transcript.go:103-114` | Duplicate of the transcript.go:113 finding: append is in-place (transcript.go:100), but hasTranscriptRow (transcript.go:108-112) still linear-scans all rows per keyed (tool/permission/ask) row, so tool-heavy /resume rehydration remains O(n²). |
+| medium | `internal/tui/transcript.go:103-114` | View re-render and copy-on-append are fixed (in-place append at transcript.go:100, empty-key fast path at transcript.go:105-107), but hasTranscriptRow (transcript.go:108-112) still scans the whole transcript per keyed append — O(n²) cumulative for tool rows during rehydration. |
+| medium | `internal/tui/transcript.go:103-114` | Duplicate of the transcript.go:117 finding: the full-slice copy is removed and non-keyed rows are O(1) via the empty-key fast path (transcript.go:105-107), but hasTranscriptRow (transcript.go:108-112) still linear-scans all rows per tool/permission/ask append, so those appends/rehydration remain quadratic. |
+| low | `internal/agent/loop.go:553-580, 611-616` | The main "requestEvent never read after the switch" claim is now fixed (requestEvent is passed to emitDeniedPermission/deniedPermissionResult on the denial paths at 571-572,577-578), but requestEvent.GrantMatched/Grant set at 574-575 in the AlwaysAllow success case remain dead writes (the post-run event at 611-616 is rebuilt fresh) and the fallbackPermissionEvent at 555 is still unreachable because shouldRequestPermission only fires for PermissionPrompt tools, for which buildPermissionEvent never returns ok=false (false only at 1071/1076 for non-Prompt/Allow). |
+| low | `internal/tui/commands.go:297,306; internal/tui/command_center.go:43-55; internal/agent/loop.go:105-106; internal/tui/commands.go:254` | The main fix landed: footer builders, theme tokens (selRow/statusOk/statusErr/line2/panel2), and actionAppendToolCall/Result are all gone (zero grep hits). But the cited gaps remain: listCommandNames (commands.go:297) and formatCommandHelpLines (commands.go:306) are referenced only by test files; resumeText's args!="" branch (command_center.go:45-55) is still unreachable since its sole non-test caller session.go:122 passes ""; OnContext (agent/loop.go:105-106) is emitted but has no production assignment; and the stale footer comment persists at commands.go:254. |
+| low | `internal/tui/commands.go:297,306; internal/tui/command_center.go:43-55; internal/agent/loop.go:105-106; internal/tui/commands.go:254` | Duplicate of the other rendering.go:62 row; same underlying code. Footer builders and the theme tokens are fully removed, but formatCommandHelpLines/listCommandNames (commands.go:297-308) remain production-defined yet referenced only by tests, and a stale 'footer advertises' comment persists at commands.go:254 (the autocomplete.go:64 stale comment cited in the older row is now gone, but commands.go:254 still has one). |
+
+## Genuinely still open (66)
+
+| Sev | Location (current) | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| medium | `internal/agent/compaction.go:422 (summarizeMessagesOnce)` | summarizeMessagesOnce still calls plain zeroruntime.CollectStream (compaction.go:422), which is CollectStreamWithOptions with empty CollectOptions{} (helpers.go:78), so no OnUsage callback fires; the collected Usage is discarded and the deliberate non-forwarding is now documented at summarizeClosure (compaction.go:359-361). Compaction-call token usage is still not surfaced/tracked. |
+| medium | `internal/agent/loop.go:567-573, 928-931` | The AlwaysAllow case still calls deniedPermissionResult/emitDeniedPermission when persistPermissionGrant errors (loop.go:569-573), and persistPermissionGrant (now at 928-931) still errors unconditionally when options.Sandbox == nil, so choosing AlwaysAllow without a configured sandbox denies the already-approved call; both sub-claims persist (only relocated from the stale 778-779 reference). |
+| medium | `internal/background/manager.go:462-471 (and persistTaskLocked call at :419)` | normalizeLoadedTask still unconditionally rewrites task.Status==StatusRunning to StatusError, sets PID=0 and ExitCode=-1, and marks changed=true; loadTasks then persists this to disk via persistTaskLocked at line 419, with no process-liveness check or reconciliation. The defect is present essentially as the auditor described. |
+| medium | `internal/background/process_posix.go:29,50` | SIGTERM (line 29) and Kill() (line 50) still target only the single pid with no kill(-pid)/negative-pid group signal, and launchBackgroundProcess (specialist/exec.go:650) sets no SysProcAttr{Setpgid:true} (grep finds zero process-group setup), while Windows still tree-kills via taskkill /T /F (process_windows.go:12). All three claims hold. |
+| medium | `internal/cli/app.go:200-220` | In the `--skip-permissions-unsafe` case, the code re-splits args[1:] via splitLeadingAddDirFlags and only iterates `rest` to reject a misplaced --add-dir (lines 215-219); it then calls runInteractiveTUI with merged addDirs only, never forwarding `rest`, so any trailing non-flag args are still silently dropped. The in-code comment at lines 208-209 explicitly confirms this ('were ignored on this path... and still are'), matching the original finding verbatim. |
+| medium | `internal/cli/cron_run.go:103-128` | reconcileOverdue still reschedules any strictly-overdue active job (NextRunAt before nowMin) to sched.Next without firing it (lines 116-126); grep confirms no RunNow/RunOnce/FireNow sentinel exists in internal/cron, so the only way to fire backlog is the --catch-up flag that skips reconcileOverdue entirely. |
+| medium | `internal/cli/exec.go:191-199` | The --list-tools branch special-cases only execOutputStreamJSON (exec.go:192-194); -o json (execOutputJSON) falls through to writeExecToolList, which calls formatExecToolList and prints the plain-text "Tools visible to model:" listing (exec_tools.go:100-110) rather than any JSON output. |
+| medium | `internal/cli/exec.go:531-545` | The interrupted branch still emits writer.errorEvent/runEnd only when outputFormat == execOutputStreamJSON (exec.go:535-540); for -o json it just does fmt.Fprintln(stderr, "Interrupted.") at exec.go:542 and returns exitInterrupted, producing no terminal JSON event on stdout (unlike the provider-error path which writes type:error/type:done for json). |
+| medium | `internal/cli/exec_sessions.go:116-124` | execSessionRecorder.append still early-returns when recorder.err != nil (line 117) and latches AppendEvent failures into recorder.err (line 120); a package-wide grep shows recorder.err/sessionRecorder.err is read only inside append itself, never by exec.go or exec_spec.go (which check only writer.err), so persistence errors are silently swallowed at run end. |
+| medium | `internal/cli/exec_sessions.go:116-124` | Duplicate of the same recorder.err defect: append (lines 116-124) early-returns once recorder.err is set and stores AppendEvent errors there, but sessionRecorder.err is never read in exec.go or exec_spec.go, so a failed session append is never surfaced to the user at run end. |
+| medium | `internal/config/resolver.go:102, 110-124` | ResolvedConfig.MCP is still set at resolver.go:102 but has zero readers: every `.MCP` access in internal/cli is the config.MCPConfig type or the separate resolveMCPConfig/ResolveMCP path, and no resolveConfig caller reads resolved.MCP. MCP registration runs through ResolveMCP (resolver.go:110-124), which only merges config-file paths and Overrides and never calls LoadProviderCommand/touches options.ProviderCommand (asserted intentional by TestResolveMCPDoesNotRunProviderCommand), so ZERO_PROVIDER_COMMAND MCP servers are still dropped. |
+| medium | `internal/cron/schedule.go:171-201` | Empirically confirmed: on the 2026-11-01 US fall-back day Next("30 1 * * *") returns 01:30 EDT and then 01:30 EST again, firing the daily job twice during the repeated wall-clock hour. The Next loop and its forward-progress guard (schedule.go:182-198) only handle spring-forward non-existent instants and contain no de-duplication for the ambiguous repeated fall-back hour. |
+| medium | `internal/hooks/hooks.go:503` | AuditStore.append still calls store.ReadEvents() at line 503, which os.ReadFile's the entire JSONL audit file and json.Unmarshal's every line on every single append, solely to scan for the highest existing Sequence (lines 507-513); no cached/in-memory sequence counter was introduced, so the O(n) full re-read per append is unchanged. |
+| medium | `internal/mcp/client.go:246` | client.writer.write(...) at line 246 still executes while client.mu is held (locked at :228, unlocked at :255), and writer.write (protocol.go:148-163) does a blocking Write+Flush on the stdin pipe with no ctx awareness; only the response wait at :257 is ctx-aware, unchanged from the audit. |
+| medium | `internal/mcp/client.go:295-318` | readLoop still dispatches any id-bearing message to pending[id] (lines 302-316) with no check of message.Method; grep finds no 'ping' or Method handling anywhere in client.go, so server-initiated requests are still ignored/misrouted exactly as described. |
+| medium | `internal/mcp/client.go:98-99` | Still 'var stderr bytes.Buffer; cmd.Stderr = &stderr' — a plain unbounded buffer (no LimitReader/cap), never reset after startup, attached for the whole process lifetime and only read on initialize failure at line 114. |
+| medium | `internal/mcp/network_client.go:612-642 (decodeSSERPCMessage), caller at :219` | decodeSSERPCMessage still decodes the first non-empty 'message' SSE event, sets found=true and returns false (stops scanning) without checking the message ID; the synchronous caller networkClient.request at line 219 does `if !rpcIDMatches(message.ID, id)` and errors on mismatch instead of scanning for the matching response. Defect unchanged (caller line is now :219, was the stale :210). |
+| medium | `internal/mcp/network_client.go:646 (scanSSEEvents), failPending at :587-593, request gate at :243` | scanSSEEvents still calls scanner.Buffer(make([]byte, 0, 64*1024), 1024*1024) with the 1MiB cap; a bufio.Scanner ErrTooLong flows through readStream into failPending (:593) which sets a permanent client.streamErr, and request() returns that streamErr forever (:243-246) with no reconnect path (openStream is only called once at connect, :77). |
+| medium | `internal/providers/gemini/types.go:103-108` | The usageMetadata struct still declares only PromptTokenCount, CandidatesTokenCount, ThoughtsTokenCount, and TotalTokenCount with no cachedContentTokenCount field; provider.go:225-228 reads only those into input/output/reasoning tokens and emitDone (provider.go:282-286) builds TokenUsage without CachedInputTokens, which is set only in openai/provider.go:253 and anthropic/provider.go:330. |
+| medium | `internal/providers/openai/tool_state.go:95-101 (and applyDelta:58)` | applyDelta still returns early when call.id=="" (line 58), and closeOpen still only emits StreamEventToolCallDropped for empty-id/empty-name calls (lines 95-99) instead of streaming them with a synthetic key; every Start/Delta/End the adapter emits carries call.id, so the zeroruntime collector's empty-ID/synthetic-key support (helpers.go start/delta/end at ~173-216) is never reached from the OpenAI adapter. The provider_test still asserts such calls are dropped and never started, confirming the behavior is unchanged, and tool_state.go's last commit (4d2ce6b) predates the 2026-06-10 audit. |
+| medium | `internal/sandbox/safe_command.go:431` | splitShellSegments still uses a strings.NewReplacer that blindly turns \|, ;, &&, \|\|, $(, ), backtick into segment boundaries with zero quote awareness; a live probe confirms `git commit -m "use top \| less"` is flagged as 'less' (interactive=true) and `echo "a; vim b"` is flagged as 'vim', exactly as the original finding described. The file is unchanged since commit #109 and contains no quote-state parsing. |
+| medium | `internal/sessions/lineage.go:140` | tree() (lineage.go:128-154) still calls store.ListChildren(sessionID) at lineage.go:140 once per node, and ListChildren calls store.List() at lineage.go:74; List() (store.go:312-338) re-reads the whole sessions dir via os.ReadDir+Get->readMetadata (store.go:674-684, a fresh os.ReadFile+json.Unmarshal with no cache), so an N-node tree re-reads every metadata.json N times. The defect is present exactly as described. |
+| medium | `internal/sessions/store.go:428-432 (Fork copy loop), 526-567 (appendEventLocked); internal/usage/report.go:74-119 (BuildReport)` | Fork's loop at store.go:428-431 re-appends every parent event (no provider_usage/EventUsage skip) via AppendEvent, which stamps a fresh CreatedAt/ID in appendEventLocked (537-543), and BuildReport (report.go:74-119) aggregates all EventUsage events with no event-id dedupe, so forked usage events are double-counted. |
+| medium | `internal/sessions/store.go:686-701 (writeMetadata), 549-559 (appendEventLocked write path)` | writeMetadata still does os.WriteFile to a temp file + os.Rename (store.go:693-696) with no file or directory fsync, and a repo-wide grep finds zero Sync() calls anywhere in internal/sessions/; appendEventLocked's append write (549-557) is likewise unsynced. |
+| medium | `internal/specialist/accounting.go:80-91 (appendSpecialistUsageRollup) and :31-47 (recordSpecialistStop)` | The dedup is still a non-atomic check-then-append: specialistEventExists calls store.ReadEvents (which acquires NO lock, store.go:569) and only the later AppendEvent takes the per-session lock for its own write, so concurrent callers (exec.go:343 onExit and output_tool.go:150 TaskOutput) can both pass the existence check and each append a duplicate event. No serializing mutex spans the check and append in the specialist package, and the store's lockSession/appendEventLocked machinery is not used by the accounting path. |
+| medium | `internal/specialist/exec.go:150 (and :202)` | Both BuildArgs (:150) and BuildResumeArgs (:202) still hardcode args append "--auto","high", and internal/cli/exec_tools.go:84-85 maps "high" -> agent.PermissionModeUnsafe, so specialist children always run in unsafe permission mode. |
+| medium | `internal/specialist/streamer.go:43` | ParseStream still calls scanner.Buffer(make([]byte,0,64*1024), 1024*1024), so a line over 1MB yields bufio.ErrTooLong; exec.go:631-634 returns that error from runChildProcess aborting the whole run, and the producer at cli/exec_writer.go:99 (parseToolCallArgs) still emits tool_call Args with no length cap. All three elements of the original finding are unchanged. |
+| medium | `internal/tools/registry.go:198-245` | The Core* tool sets (CoreReadOnlyTools/CoreWriteTools/CoreShellTools at :224/CoreNetworkTools/CoreTools) still omit escalate_model; it is registered only under exec --allow-escalation (cli/exec.go:156-157), while the TUI registry built by newCoreRegistryScoped (cli/app.go:436,531-537) never registers it — app.go only mentions escalate_model in help text at :733. |
+| medium | `internal/tui/model.go:2022-2028 (session log) vs model.go:854/802/1721 (transcript)` | Interim narration is appended to the live transcript on tool call (model.go:852-857), error (801-803), and cancel (1720-1722), but the session log only persists result.FinalAnswer via EventMessage (model.go:2022-2028); onText (1781-1786) and sendAgentText (2064-2069) record no session event, so the gap the ledger flagged as 'partial' is unchanged — interim segments are still never persisted and /resume loses them. |
+| medium | `internal/tui/session_controls.go:148-177; internal/tui/model.go:1746-1778` | m.responseStyle is still only stored by handleStyleCommand (session_controls.go:156) and echoed in display strings (session_controls.go:159/171, command_views.go:275); runAgentWithOptions threads ReasoningEffort/SystemPrompt/PermissionMode into options but never references responseStyle, and agent.Options has no style field (no non-display ResponseStyle reader exists), so /style still changes nothing about responses. |
+| medium | `internal/tui/session_controls.go:148-177; internal/tui/model.go:1746-1778` | Duplicate of the responseStyle finding: m.responseStyle is set at session_controls.go:156 but runAgentWithOptions (model.go:1746-1778) never assigns it into agent.Options or the system prompt; the only readers are display strings (command_views.go:275, session_controls.go:159/171), so the style preference is inert. |
+| medium | `internal/tui/session_controls.go:148-177; internal/tui/model.go:1746-1778` | Duplicate of the responseStyle finding verified once: handleStyleCommand only stores m.responseStyle and grep shows no non-display consumer; runAgentWithOptions sets ReasoningEffort/SystemPrompt/etc. on agent.Options but never the style, so /style remains cosmetic. |
+| medium | `internal/tui/session_controls.go:318 (resolveRewindTarget); internal/sessions/rewind.go:205` | resolveRewindTarget still returns lastCheckpoint-1, while OnToolCall appends EventToolCall then the EventSessionCheckpoint right after it (model.go:1886-1911) so the tool_call gets the immediately-preceding sequence; TruncateEvents keeps ev.Sequence<=target (rewind.go:205), so the tool_call (seq==target) is retained while its checkpoint (seq>target) is dropped, leaving the dangling tool_call described in the finding. |
+| medium | `internal/usage/report.go:17-21 (struct) and :102 (pricing); writer at internal/cli/exec.go:521-524` | usageEventPayload (report.go:17-21) still has only PromptTokens/CompletionTokens/TotalTokens with no model field, and BuildReport at report.go:102 still prices via modelBySession[event.SessionID] from session Metadata.ModelID; meanwhile exec.go:521-522 still persists payload["model"]=currentModel under --allow-escalation, and a repo-wide grep confirms no consumer reads that per-event model key (the only usageEventPayload reader silently drops it on unmarshal). |
+| medium | `internal/zerogit/zerogit.go:225` | parseStatus still does `path := strings.TrimSpace(line[3:])` with no C-quote unescaping and no `old -> new` rename split, and the caller at line 119 runs `status --short --untracked-files=all` without `-z`/porcelain, so quoted or renamed paths are still mis-parsed exactly as described. |
+| low | `internal/agent/loop.go:1305-1316` | propertyToRuntimeMap still assigns schema["items"] = propertyToRuntimeMap(*property.Items) twice for the same property.Items != nil guard (lines 1305-1307 and 1314-1316); the second assignment is a redundant duplicate writing an identical value. |
+| low | `internal/agent/loop.go:189-191` | The reactive-retry CollectStreamWithOptions call still passes only OnUsage and omits OnText (comment at 183-188 documents this as deliberate anti-duplication), so streaming surfaces still receive only the aborted partial text on the retried turn exactly as the finding describes. |
+| low | `internal/agent/loop.go:194-201` | When ctx is canceled, internal/zeroruntime/helpers.go:89 sets collected.Error = ctx.Err().Error(); loop.go:194-197 returns errors.New(collected.Error) before the ctx.Err() identity return at 198-201, so the returned error no longer wraps the sentinel and errors.Is(err, context.Canceled) still fails on that path. |
+| low | `internal/agent/types.go:196 (field); internal/agent/loop.go:105-106 (emit site); internal/agent/context_measurement.go:31 (MeasureContext/ContextBreakdown)` | The OnContext callback field (types.go:196) and its emit site (loop.go:105-106 calling MeasureContext) still exist, but a repo-wide grep finds ZERO 'OnContext:' assignments anywhere (test or prod) and no use of MeasureContext/ContextBreakdown outside internal/agent tests; cli/tui/cmd and the contextreport package never reference them (contextreport only calls agent.BuildSystemPromptPreview), so the callback remains permanently a no-op exactly as the original finding described. |
+| low | `internal/background/process_posix.go:38-50` | terminateProcess still does os.FindProcess(pid) (line 24) and polls liveness via signal-0 in processAlive (lines 39-47, 59-61), while launchBackgroundProcess (specialist/exec.go:659-673) still reaps the child in a concurrent command.Wait() goroutine, so the PID can be reaped and recycled before process.Kill() at line 50 fires. Defect unchanged. |
+| low | `internal/cli/cron_run.go:146-152` | rec.Error is still set only from errBuf (cronTruncate(strings.TrimSpace(errBuf.String()),500) when code!=0); outBuf is declared and passed to exec at line 146-147 but never read anywhere in fireJob, so stream-json error events on stdout are still discarded. |
+| low | `internal/cli/exec.go:383-398 (PrepareExec call), exec.go:404 (time.Now), internal/cli/exec_sessions.go:55 (direct NewStore)` | All three sub-claims hold: the sessions.PrepareExec call at exec.go:383-398 omits the Store field so PrepareExec falls back to NewStore(StoreOptions{}) at exec_session.go:58-61; preflightExecSession still does sessions.NewStore(StoreOptions{}) directly at exec_sessions.go:55; and runExec uses streamjson.CreateRunID(time.Now()) at exec.go:404 instead of the injectable deps.now (which is available and used at exec.go:142/186). |
+| low | `internal/cli/exec_sessions.go:55` | preflightExecSession still calls sessions.NewStore(sessions.StoreOptions{}) directly at line 55, and exec.go's PrepareExec call (exec.go:383-397) omits the Store field so sessions/exec_session.go:58-60 defaults to NewStore again; deps.newSessionStore is used by spec/usage/observability/sessions paths but never by the exec run path in exec.go. |
+| low | `internal/config/contracts.go:5,12,65` | ContractGap (line 5), DefaultContractGaps (line 12), and FindContractGapsByMilestone (line 65) are all still defined, and a repo-wide grep for these symbols (plus ContractOwnerRuntime) finds references ONLY in internal/config/contracts_test.go. No production caller exists, so the dead-code defect persists exactly as described. |
+| low | `internal/config/resolver.go:144,177,506` | All three MaxTurns sites (mergeConfig :144, mergeProjectConfig :177, applyOverrides :506) still gate purely on `if src/overrides.MaxTurns > 0` with no error path, and Resolve() has no MaxTurns validation, so a configured 0 or negative maxTurns is silently dropped and falls back to defaultMaxTurns=30 (resolver.go:16,22). A negative-value error path exists for tools.deferThreshold (:57-59) but none was added for MaxTurns. |
+| low | `internal/plugins/plugins.go:894` | parseHookEvent's switch (plugins.go:894) still accepts only HookBeforeTool/HookAfterTool/HookSessionStart/HookSessionEnd and the HookEvent consts (plugins.go:39-42) omit specialist events entirely, whereas hooks.go parseEvent (hooks.go:812) accepts those four plus EventSpecialistStart/EventSpecialistStop, so the two validation sets still disagree exactly as described. |
+| low | `internal/providercatalog/catalog.go:46` | The `Public bool` field is still declared on Descriptor (catalog.go:46) but is never assigned anywhere in the codebase: there are zero `Public:` struct-literal assignments and zero `.Public =` writes. The only read remains the vacuous guard at catalog_test.go:106 (`if descriptor.Public && !descriptor.RequiresAuth`), which is dead code since Public is always false. |
+| low | `internal/providers/factory.go:115` | At the sole call site (line 115) the `\|\|` short-circuits so isImplicitOpenAI is only evaluated when explicitProvider==true, which (per explicitProviderKind at 147-157) requires ProviderKind!="" or Provider!=""; but isImplicitOpenAI (159-164) requires both ProviderKind=="" and Provider=="", so it can never return true there — the term remains dead code exactly as described. |
+| low | `internal/redaction/redaction.go:174` | Line 174 still declares `var stackTracer interface{ StackTrace() fmt.Stringer }`; a repo-wide grep finds StackTrace only at redaction.go:174 and :176 (no implementer in the module), and go.mod has no pkg/errors-style dependency, so this errors.As branch is dead code that can never match exactly as the finding described. |
+| low | `internal/sessions/store.go:615-617 (timestamp), 331-336 (List), 340-346 (Latest)` | timestamp() at store.go:616 still formats with time.RFC3339 (second precision), and List() at 332-334 breaks UpdatedAt ties lexically by SessionID, so Latest() (line 345 returns sessions[0]) can still pick the wrong session on same-second ties exactly as described. |
+| low | `internal/skills/skills.go:91 (Duplicates); consumers: internal/cli/skills.go:62, internal/plugins/activate.go:376` | skills.Duplicates and skills.Get still have zero callers outside internal/skills (Get has zero callers anywhere, even tests), and the duplicate-collision data is never surfaced: cli/skills.go runSkillsList calls skills.List with no warning, and the skill tool discards the dups at activate.go:376 with `merged, _ := MergedSkillsLoaded(...)`. Although plugins.mergeSkills now computes a parallel DuplicateName slice that MergedSkills returns, every call site drops it, so shadowed/dropped skills are still resolved silently with no user-facing warning, exactly the defect described. |
+| low | `internal/specialist/exec.go:353-358` | On manager.SetPID failure the code only calls executor.cleanupBackgroundPromptFile and returns the error; it does not call recordSpecialistStop or manager.UpdateStatus(StatusError) while the already-launched child keeps running, unlike the launch-error path at :347-352 which does record a stop. |
+| low | `internal/specialist/output_tool.go:244` | formatTaskOutput is still dead code: a codebase-wide grep finds only its own definition at :244 and no callers in prod or tests; the only used formatter is formatTaskOutputSummary, called from readOutput at :154. |
+| low | `internal/streamjson/streamjson.go:30` | Repo-wide grep for EventRestore (and the literal "restore" EventType) returns only the declaration at streamjson.go:30 — no emitter and no test reference, whereas the sibling EventCheckpoint is emitted at cli/exec_writer.go:119 and referenced in streamjson_test.go:435. The constant remains dead exactly as the original finding described. |
+| low | `internal/tools/read_file.go:98-121` | The truncation path is unchanged from main (empty git diff): when max_lines truncates, it sets Result.Truncated=true (line 120) but the only in-output signal is the '(lines 1-5 of 20)' range header (line 114) — no distinct truncation marker is appended to Output (line 119). The rune-width sub-claim remains non-reproducible because line-number padding uses ASCII digits via strconv.Itoa (lines 105-109), exactly as the original finding concluded. |
+| low | `internal/tools/registry.go:19` | Repo-wide grep finds OnSandboxDecision only at registry.go:19 (declaration), :113 (nil check), and :121 (invocation) — zero struct-literal (OnSandboxDecision:) or dot-assignment (.OnSandboxDecision =) sites anywhere in non-test or test code, so the field is still never set by any caller. |
+| low | `internal/tui/command_center.go:45-55` | resumeText's args!="" branch (command_center.go:45-55) is still dead: the only production caller, handleResumeCommand at session.go:121-122, passes "" (the non-empty case is handled separately via resolveResumeSession at session.go:125), so the branch remains unreachable; one stale 'footer advertises' comment also persists at commands.go:254 (the autocomplete.go one is gone). |
+| low | `internal/tui/command_center.go:17-24` | doctorText() still constructs doctor.Run(doctor.Options{Now, Runtime:"go", Provider}) with no UserConfig/ProjectConfig (command_center.go:18-22), unlike the CLI path at observability.go:64-71; so configFilesCheck (doctor.go:111-123) gets empty paths and emits the StatusWarn 'No explicit Zero config files were inspected.' exactly as the finding describes. |
+| low | `internal/tui/commands_test.go:46` | The function commandTestStringSliceContains is still defined at line 46, and a repo-wide grep across all *.go files returns only the definition itself with zero call sites, matching the original dead-helper finding exactly. |
+| low | `internal/tui/model.go:1363-1365` | handleSubmit still drops a prompt while m.exiting with a bare `return m, nil` and no feedback row, and no render path surfaces an exiting/flushRunIDs indicator: statusLine (view.go:137-156) shows only provider+usage, and composerLine's hint switch (model.go:1130-1134) only shows 'esc stop' when m.pending. |
+| low | `internal/tui/options.go:34,39-40 (UsageTracker/ReasoningEffort/ResponseStyle); internal/cli/app.go:484-516; internal/tui/model.go:277-279` | The exact residual gap the ledger evidence describes is still present verbatim: the production caller's tui.Options{...} block in app.go (484-516) sets none of UsageTracker, ReasoningEffort, or ResponseStyle. The mitigations cited also still hold — newModel self-defaults a usage.Tracker when options.UsageTracker is nil (model.go:277-279) and effort/style remain runtime-settable via /effort (session_controls.go:81) and /style (session_controls.go:156) — so the code matches the partial state described, with the same unset-fields gap unchanged. |
+| low | `internal/tui/session_test.go:215` | The local slice `runtimeMessages := []tea.Msg{}` (line 215) is still only appended to in the RuntimeMessageSink closure (line 226) and never read or asserted anywhere in the test body; the test exclusively consumes the channel runtimeMessageCh via receiveRuntimeMessage, leaving the slice write-only exactly as the finding described. |
+| low | `internal/verify/verify.go:215` | RunLoop is still defined at verify.go:215 and a repo-wide grep finds only two references: the definition and its sole caller verify_test.go:207. The production retry loop is selfverify.Run (selfverify.go:53), which re-implements the attempt loop calling verify.Run directly (selfverify.go:75) and is the one wired into cli/workflows.go, so RunLoop plus LoopOptions/LoopReport remain dead production code. |
+| low | `internal/zerocommands/sandbox_snapshots.go:82-104 (SandboxPlanSnapshot/SandboxDecisionSnapshot); raw serialization at internal/cli/sandbox.go:92-94,146-148` | Grep confirms SandboxPlanSnapshot/Decision/Policy/Backend/Risk/Violation snapshots are referenced only inside internal/zerocommands and its tests (no production consumer; the only new consumers in tui/command_views.go are SandboxGrantSnapshots and ProviderSnapshot, which are different types). `zero sandbox policy --json` in internal/cli/sandbox.go still builds its payload from raw zeroSandbox.Policy/Backend/BackendPlan (lines 92-94 and 146-148) instead of the snapshot constructors, exactly as the original evidence described. |
+| low | `internal/zerogit/zerogit.go:419-423` | The fallback EnvRunner adapter at lines 420-422 is still `func(ctx, dir, _ []string, args ...string)` which discards the env slice and calls `runGit(ctx, dir, args...)`, so a caller-supplied Runner with no RunGitEnv still loses stagedSnapshotDiff's GIT_INDEX_FILE isolation. |
+| low | `internal/agent/loop.go:194-201 (origin internal/zeroruntime/helpers.go:89)` | helpers.go:89 still sets collected.Error = ctx.Err().Error() (stringifying the cancellation, losing identity), and loop.go:194-196 returns errors.New(collected.Error) BEFORE the identity-preserving `return result, ctx.Err()` at loop.go:198-200, so on the stream-cancellation path the returned error is a plain string error and errors.Is(err, context.Canceled) still fails. |

+# ZERO · Lime TUI rebuild — staged prompt
+
+You are working in a fresh checkout of `github.com/Gitlawb/zero` (Go 1.24,
+Bubble Tea v1.3.10, Lip Gloss, Bubbles v1.0.0, Glamour — all in go.mod; add NO
+new dependencies).
+
+Mission: **remove both existing TUI designs entirely** — the default cyan
+shell (`internal/tui/theme.go` palette + the centered splash in `startup.go`)
+AND the whole `zeroline` skin system — and replace them with ONE design:
+**Lime**, the near-black, lime-accent chat surface prototyped in
+`docs/design/zero_tui_lime.html` (commit the prototype there first; it is the
+visual source of truth). The prototype is a web mock — this spec is the
+authoritative terminal translation of it. Behavior must not regress: every
+slash command, prompt flow, overlay, and safety property that works today
+must work after.
+
+This is a fresh clone: file names below were verified against a recent
+snapshot, but ALWAYS recon before editing. If a path or symbol has moved,
+adapt — do not blindly apply.
+
+**Gate (run after EVERY stage, commit + tag before continuing):**
+```
+go vet ./...
+go test ./...
+go run ./cmd/zero-release build
+```
+Stage 4 additionally runs `go run ./cmd/zero-release smoke`. Never tag a red
+tree. AGENTS.MD applies: Go-native commands only.

+
+## Design spec — Lime
+
+### Palette — `internal/tui/theme.go` becomes the ONLY place colors exist
+| Token      | Hex       | Use |
+|------------|-----------|-----|
+| bg         | `#070708` | canvas (terminal default bg; do not paint full-bleed) |
+| panel      | `#0e0e10` | card backgrounds (tool/diff/read/grep/sessions rows) |
+| panel2     | `#121215` | card header rows, picker rows |
+| panel3     | `#17171b` | selected/hovered row bg |
+| line       | `#242429` | default borders, rules, status separators |
+| line2      | `#2e2e34` | emphasized borders |
+| ink        | `#ececee` | primary text |
+| muted      | `#8b8b93` | secondary text, assistant interim prose |
+| faint      | `#5b5b63` | hints, metadata |
+| faintest   | `#3a3a40` | line numbers, separators, tool args |
+| accent     | `#caff3f` | brand lime: prompts, badge, spinner, focus, final rail |
+| green      | `#5dd1a4` | success, diff add sign, ✓ |
+| red        | `#ff7a7a` | errors, diff del sign, ✗, deny |
+| amber      | `#ffc25c` | permission surfaces, warnings, auto badge |
+| blue       | `#7db4ff` | grep file locations, local-model dot |
+| addBg      | `#15201d` | diff added-line bg (solid stand-in for green @9% over panel) |
+| delBg      | `#241819` | diff deleted-line bg (solid stand-in for red @9%) |
+| permBg     | `#1c1915` | permission card bg (amber @6% over panel) |
+| selBg      | `#1d2114` | selected picker/suggestion row (accent @8%) |
+| addInk     | `#bdeed7` | added-line text |
+| delInk     | `#f2c4c4` | deleted-line text |
+| onAccent   | `#000000` | text on accent or amber fills |
+
+Terminals cannot alpha-blend or glow — the four solid tints above ARE the
+translation of the prototype's rgba/glow effects; do not attempt gradients,
+shadows, or blur. Truecolor hex throughout; lipgloss downsamples on limited
+terminals (keep the existing explanatory comment style in theme.go).
+
+Keep the `tuiTheme` single-value pattern but rebuild the field set around
+these tokens (style per role: badge, userPrompt, sayText, finalRail, toolName,
+toolTarget, toolArg, autoTag, statusOk/Err, diffAdd/Del/Meta, permBadge,
+permRisk, grepLoc, bashPrompt, stGroup, etc.). No hex outside theme.go.
+
+### Layout — single-column chat surface (matches the existing architecture)

+```
+Render order stays: title line → rule → transcript → composer → rule →
+status line. NO alt-screen change, NO panes, NO mouse — keep `run.go`
+exactly as-is including its no-mouse-capture comment.
+
+### Title bar (replaces `headerBar`)
+Left: badge — `lipgloss` style bg=accent fg=onAccent bold, content ` 0 ` —
+then `zero` (ink, bold, lowercase), ` / ` (faintest), cwd via existing
+`shortenPath` (muted), git branch (faint) when present. Right:
+`provider/model` (ink) + ` · ctx` (faint) where ctx comes from
+`modelregistry.ContextLimits.ContextWindow` formatted like `200K`. Reuse the
+existing width-candidate fallback pattern (`startupHeaderLine`) so segments
+drop gracefully: full → drop ctx → drop cwd → badge+model only. Below it,
+one rule line in `line`.
+
+### Empty state (DELETE the splash entirely)
+Remove `startupView`, `startupHeader`, `commandChips`, the figlet
+`zeroLogoLines`, gap math, and the `showSplash` field/branch. The app boots
+into the chat surface; when the transcript is empty, the stream area shows,
+vertically centered:
+- a 5–6 line block-art `0` in accent (derive the glyph from the `O` columns
+  of the old figlet constant before deleting it),
+- tagline (muted): `a std-lib-first coding agent · bring your own key · no lock-in`,
+- hint (faint): `running zero against <provider/model>` with the model in ink,
+- three suggestion chips, one per line: `❯` (accent bold) + suggestion (ink)
+  inside a `line`-bordered rounded box; pressing `1`–`3` while the composer
+  is empty inserts that suggestion. Define suggestions as a string slice in
+  the tui package (e.g. add a --version flag / explain internal/agent/loop.go /
+  fix the failing test in internal/tools).
+
+### Stream blocks (restyle `transcript.go` / `rendering.go` rows)
+- **user** (`rowUser`): `❯ ` accent bold + ink text. Blank line above turns.
+- **assistant interim** (`rowAssistant` while streaming): muted text, wrapped
+  to `min(width-4, 74)` columns, trailing `▌` cursor in accent while the
+  turn is pending (drives off existing pending state — no new ticker).
+- **final answer** (last assistant row of a turn): a `│` accent rail gutter
+  on every wrapped line + ink text, same 74-col measure. If distinguishing
+  interim vs final is not already possible from row data, mark the row at
+  append time — do not re-parse text.
+- **done line** (end of a turn): `●` green (red on error) + faint
+  `done · N tools · Xs` with faintest `·` separators, derived from data the
+  model already has (tool rows this turn + existing usage/timing if present;
+  omit segments that don't exist rather than inventing counters).
+- **system / error notes** (`rowSystem`/`rowError` equivalents): one-line
+  bordered note — system: faint on panel with `line` border; denial/error:
+  red text, red-tinted border. Keep content unchanged.
+
+### Tool cards (replaces `titledCard`/tool rows for `rowToolCall`+`rowToolResult`)
+Rounded border card on panel bg. Head row on panel2 with a bottom rule:
+status glyph + tool name (ink bold) + target (muted, middle-truncated) +
+one-line arg via the existing `argHint` (faintest, right side) + optional
+`auto` tag (amber text in amber-bordered mini box) when the call was
+auto-approved by mode or a stored grant. Status glyph: running =
+`bubbles/spinner` MiniDot in accent · ok = `✓` green · error = `✗` red.
+Border tint follows state: line → accent-ish `#5a6b2e` while running →
+red-mix on error (define both as theme tokens). Bodies by result shape,
+reusing the existing detection where present:
+- **diff** (`looksLikeDiff`): head row = path (ink) + `NEW FILE` tag (green
+  on addBg) when applicable + right-aligned `+N` green / `−N` red counts;
+  body lines = 4-col right-aligned line number (faintest) + sign col
+  (green/red) + text — added rows on addBg in addInk, deleted on delBg in
+  delInk, context muted. Keep the 16-line cap + `… N more lines` footer.
+- **read**: same gutter, muted text, head shows path + `Lstart–Lend` (faint).
+- **bash**: cmd row `❯` accent bold + command (ink) above a rule; output
+  muted (stderr-ish in delInk), indented 2; footer `exit 0` green /
+  `exit N` red when an exit code is in the result.
+- **grep**: rows `file:line` (blue) + text (muted, truncated); footer faint
+  `N matches`.
+- Anything else: current generic output rendering, restyled to muted on panel.
+
+### Permission card (restyle the existing `pendingPermission` prompt — keys unchanged)
+Card with amber-mixed border on permBg. Top row: `PERMISSION` badge (onAccent
+on amber, bold) + `risk: <low|medium|high>` (amber) from the request's
+existing risk data. Body: `<tool>` (amber bold) + target (ink) + reason
+(muted). Action row of bordered key-chips: `[a] allow once` (onAccent on
+accent), `[y] always` (ink, accent border), `[d] deny` (ink, red on hover is
+web-only — just red-bordered), `[esc]` hint faint. After resolution collapse
+to one faint line: `allowed once · <tool>` green / `always · <tool>` green /
+`denied · <tool>` red. Ask-user and spec-review prompts get the same card
+language with `line` borders. Do NOT alter `handlePermissionKey`,
+`nextPermissionMode`, or grant-store semantics.
+
+### Composer + status line
+Composer: `❯` accent bold + the existing `bubbles/textinput`, borderless
+(remove the bordered input block), placeholder `describe a task for zero…`,
+switching to `running… ctrl+c to interrupt` while pending; right-aligned
+faint hint `run ↵` (idle, only when input is non-empty) / `esc stop`
+(pending). Rules above composer and above status line in `line`.
+Status line groups separated by ` │ ` (line color): `●` accent + provider ·
+model id · flexible gap · `<X.XK> tok` (existing usage segment data,
+keep cost when priced) · `interactive` · permission mode (reuse
+`modeLabel()`: `⏵⏵ auto-approve` green / `ask` amber / `unsafe` red) ·
+optional green `always: <n> grants` when the sandbox grant store exposes a
+cheap count (omit otherwise — do not add plumbing).
+
+### Overlays (restyle in place, identical key handling)
+- Autocomplete: rows on panel, selected row on selBg with accent `❯` marker,
+  name ink / desc faint.
+- Picker (`/model`, `/provider`, etc.): bordered panel; rows = provider dot
+  (accent remote, blue local) + id (ink) + right meta `ctx · KEY_ENV`
+  (faint/faintest) when the registry/provider catalog already exposes them;
+  selected row selBg. Title row + `↑/↓ · ⏎ · esc` hints faint.
+- Sessions: `/resume` (alias `/sessions`) keeps its existing flow; restyle
+  its list as stacked cards — id (accent) + age (faint) top row, title (ink),
+  meta line (faint with faintest dots). No new persistence behavior.
+
+### Explicitly OUT of scope
+The prototype's `text/json` toggle visualizes the headless
+`--output-format stream-json` CLI mode (see docs/STREAM_JSON_PROTOCOL.md) —
+not a TUI feature. The TweaksPanel in the HTML is a design harness — ignore
+it. No mouse support, no model dropdown (keyboard picker is the translation).
+
+---
+
+## Adaptive requirements (treat as acceptance criteria)
+- Width tiers, re-evaluated on every `WindowSizeMsg`:
+  **≥100** full spec · **80–99** drop tool-arg column, header ctx, status
+  `interactive` group · **60–79** drop diff/read line-number gutters, badge
+  renders as `0` without padding, status keeps provider+tokens+mode only ·
+  **<58** (current `minStartupWidth`) single-segment header, cards lose
+  side borders (keep top/bottom rules), composer + mode line only.
+- Text measure: say/final wrap at `min(width-4, 74)`; paths middle-truncate
+  (`internal/…/root.go`); never emit a styled line wider than the terminal
+  (extend the existing `fitStyledLine`/`truncateRunes` helpers — reuse, don't
+  fork).
+- Height: when the terminal is shorter than the frame, transcript trims from
+  the top (existing inline behavior) — verify no overlap of composer/status.
+- Color: nothing may rely on truecolor to be legible — check every pairing
+  at 256 colors mentally; the four tint tokens must remain darker than ink.
+- Tests for the tier logic: table-driven across widths {58, 70, 80, 100, 120}
+  asserting which segments render, using the existing ANSI-stripping helpers.
+
+---
+
+## Stages
+
+### Stage 0 — recon + delete the `zeroline` design system  *(tag: `tui-lime-s0`)*
+Recon first: `grep -rni zeroline --include='*.go' .` and read
+`internal/tui/options.go`, `internal/cli/app.go`. Then remove completely:
+`internal/zeroline/` (whole package + tests), `internal/tui/zeroline_view.go`
+(+ test), `internal/cli/zeroline.go`, the `case "zeroline":` dispatch and the
+zeroline help-text line in `internal/cli/app.go`, the skin parameter on
+`runInteractiveTUIWithSkin` (rename to `runInteractiveTUI`), the `Skin`,
+`ThemeVariant`, `ThemeDark` fields in `tui.Options`, the model's `skin`
+field and every `m.skin == "zeroline"` branch (View dispatch, `/theme`
+special-case, update paths, `picker.go`, `image_attach.go`). Update or
+delete affected tests; the zeroline grep must return zero hits. Gate, tag.
+
+### Stage 1 — Lime palette on the existing layout  *(tag: `tui-lime-s1`)*
+Rewrite `theme.go` to the token table. Restyle every current render site
+(header, transcript rows, titledCard/diffCard, overlays, status line,
+prompts) to the new tokens WITHOUT changing structure yet — this isolates
+the string-assertion churn in `model_test.go` / `session_test.go` /
+`command_polish_test.go` from the layout work. Prefer asserting plain
+content via the ANSI-stripping helpers over styled bytes. Gate, tag.
+
+### Stage 2 — chat-surface components  *(tag: `tui-lime-s2`)*
+Title bar + rule, empty state replacing the splash (splash code deleted),
+stream blocks (user/interim/final/done/notes), tool cards with all four
+result bodies, MiniDot spinner, composer + status line redesign. Add
+rendering tests per block type with synthetic rows. Gate, tag.
+
+### Stage 3 — interactive surfaces  *(tag: `tui-lime-s3`)*
+Permission card + resolved collapse + auto tag, ask-user and spec-review
+cards, autocomplete/picker restyle with model-row metadata, `/resume`
+sessions card list, suggestion-chip `1–3` insertion. Key handling and
+semantics byte-identical to before — assert that in tests where they
+already exist. Gate, tag.
+
+### Stage 4 — adaptive polish + docs  *(tag: `tui-lime-s4`)*
+Implement + test the width tiers, sweep remaining render sites (spec mode,
+command center, doctor output if styled) for stray old-palette styles,
+update `internal/cli/app.go` help text and README's TUI section, manual run
+`go run ./cmd/zero` at 58/80/100/120 cols (no wrapped rules, no orphan ANSI,
+prompts render correctly). Full gate + `go run ./cmd/zero-release smoke`.
+Gate, tag.
+
+---
+
+## Hard constraints
+- No new module dependencies; charmbracelet stack only. No mouse capture.
+- Zero behavior change to permissions, grants, ask-user, spec review,
+  sessions, slash commands, autocomplete, image attach, compaction, rewind.
+- All colors in `theme.go`; renderers consume named styles only.
+- Reuse existing helpers (`fitStyledLine`, `truncateRunes`, `argHint`,
+  `shortenPath`, header candidates) instead of writing parallel ones.
+- Comment style matches the repo: explain WHY at non-obvious decisions.
+
+## Definition of done
+One design in the tree (no zeroline references, no splash, no cyan tokens),
+the Lime chat surface matching this spec at ≥100 cols and degrading per the

-# OAuth logins & using ChatGPT / Claude subscriptions
-
-Zero supports two distinct things people mean by "log in with OAuth":
-
-1. **OAuth login for a provider/gateway** that issues a *standard* bearer token —
-   fully built in (`zero auth login …`). Zero attaches the token to model calls
-   automatically.
-2. **Using a ChatGPT or Claude *subscription*** (Plus / Pro / Max) instead of a
-   pay-per-token API key — only possible through a **local proxy**, for the
-   reasons documented below. Zero ships a convenience preset and this recipe.
-
----
-
-## 1. OAuth login for a provider or gateway (built in)
-
-For any OAuth 2.0 / OIDC provider that returns a normal access token usable as
-`Authorization: Bearer …` on its API, configure it with `ZERO_OAUTH_<NAME>_*`
-env vars and log in:
-
-```sh
-export ZERO_OAUTH_ACME_CLIENT_ID=…
-export ZERO_OAUTH_ACME_AUTHORIZE_URL=https://acme.example/oauth/authorize
-export ZERO_OAUTH_ACME_TOKEN_URL=https://acme.example/oauth/token
-export ZERO_OAUTH_ACME_SCOPES="openid profile"
-zero auth login acme            # browser (loopback); --device for headless
-zero auth status
-```
-
-When a login exists for a provider, the **OpenAI and Anthropic** providers send
-`Authorization: Bearer <fresh-token>` (auto-refreshed; one refresh-and-retry on a
-`401`) instead of the API key. With no login they use the API key exactly as
-before. Tokens are stored 0600 (or the OS keyring with
-`ZERO_OAUTH_STORAGE=keyring`) and never logged. See `zero auth --help`.
-
-### In the setup wizard (`/provider`)
-
-Running `/provider` opens a **"How do you want to connect?"** chooser:
-
-```text
-❯ Sign in with OAuth                 One-click browser login (OpenRouter, xAI, ChatGPT, Hugging Face)
-  Paste an API key / browse providers  Any of 20+ providers, local, or a proxy
-```
-
-Pick **Sign in with OAuth** → the list of providers that do real OAuth → choose one:
-
-```text
-❯ OpenRouter      browser sign-in · creates a key
-  xAI (Grok)      browser or device code
-  ChatGPT         browser (Codex backend, ChatGPT Plus/Pro)
-  Hugging Face    browser or device code
-```
-
-- **OpenRouter / xAI / ChatGPT / Hugging Face** are real OAuth: your browser
-  opens to approve → done (no key to paste). OpenRouter mints a key; xAI /
-  ChatGPT / Hugging Face store a refreshable bearer. Hugging Face requires a
-  one-time OAuth-app registration (no secret needed for "public" apps); the
-  preset pre-fills scopes, endpoints, and the OIDC issuer. The same chooser
-  appears in first-run onboarding. (xAI uses an opt-in preset — set
-  `ZERO_OAUTH_ALLOW_PRESETS=1` or your own `ZERO_OAUTH_XAI_*`; see below.)
-- **Device code (headless / SSH):** for a provider that supports it (xAI,
-  Hugging Face), press **d** on the list to get a code to enter on another
-  device instead of opening a browser. On an SSH session or headless Linux box
-  (no `DISPLAY`) device code is used automatically; set `ZERO_OAUTH_DEVICE=1`
-  to force it anywhere. The CLI equivalent is
-  `zero auth login <name> --device`.
-- **ChatGPT / Claude are intentionally not in this list for the proxy path** —
-  use the dedicated `chatgpt-proxy` / `custom-anthropic-compatible` preset
-  (see §2) for subscription-via-proxy. ChatGPT *is* a first-class OAuth
-  provider in this version (routes to the Codex backend) — see "Built-in OAuth
-  providers" below.
-
-### Built-in OAuth providers
-
-- **OpenRouter (no env needed)** — `zero auth openrouter` opens a browser, you
-  approve, and it **mints an OpenRouter API key** (public PKCE flow, no client_id).
-  In the interactive setup wizard, pick **OpenRouter** and press **ctrl+o** at the
-  key step to do the same inline ("Log in with OAuth"). The minted key is saved to
-  the provider profile and used normally.
-- **xAI (Grok) — opt-in preset** — xAI's flow needs an OAuth `client_id`. Zero
-  ships a built-in preset for the public Grok-CLI client, but to keep third-party
-  client identities out of the default credential path it is **off by default**.
-  Enable it with `export ZERO_OAUTH_ALLOW_PRESETS=1`, then `zero auth login xai`
-  (browser, or `--device` for headless) works one-click; the token is used directly
-  on `api.x.ai/v1`. Without the opt-in, set `ZERO_OAUTH_XAI_CLIENT_ID` (and
-  endpoints, or an issuer) yourself via `ZERO_OAUTH_XAI_*`. Either way the preset is
-  fully overridable by `ZERO_OAUTH_XAI_*` (env wins), and it requires a
-  SuperGrok / X Premium+ subscription; the client_id is an undocumented public
-  Grok-CLI client that may change without notice.
-- **ChatGPT (Codex) — opt-in preset** — `zero auth chatgpt` opens a browser, you
-  approve with your ChatGPT Plus/Pro/Business/Enterprise account, and the bearer is
-  stored. The bearer routes to `https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses`
-  (the same endpoint the openai/codex CLI uses), with `originator: codex_cli_rs` and
-  the `chatgpt-account-id` claim injected as headers on every request. The
-  `chatgpt-account-id` is extracted from the OIDC ID token and stored alongside the
-  bearer; if the claim is missing (older ChatGPT accounts, or a rotated
-  authorization server), the Codex backend will 401 and `zero auth status chatgpt`
-  will show the warning. Like xAI, the preset uses the publicly-shipped Codex CLI
-  client identity (`app_EMoamEEZ73f0CkXaXp7hrann`) and is opt-in via
-  `ZERO_OAUTH_ALLOW_PRESETS=1`. As of mid-2026 the Codex backend is
-  Cloudflare-gated: requests from a non-Codex client can still be challenged, and
-  the `chatgpt-proxy` route in §2 is the conservative fallback.
-- **Hugging Face — opt-in preset, BYO client_id** — `zero auth login huggingface`
-  (or `--device` for headless) opens a Hugging Face OAuth flow. The bearer works on
-  the OpenAI-compatible router at `https://router.huggingface.co/v1` for hundreds
-  of OSS models (Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Mistral, etc.). HF does not ship a
-  globally-known client_id, so the preset ships endpoints + scopes + the OIDC
-  issuer pre-filled; you must register a "public" OAuth app (no secret) at
-  <https://huggingface.co/settings/applications/new> and set the resulting
-  `client_id` via `ZERO_OAUTH_HUGGINGFACE_CLIENT_ID`. Enable the preset with
-  `ZERO_OAUTH_ALLOW_PRESETS=1` (or omit it — the BYO client_id path uses
-  `client_credentials = none` and doesn't need the opt-in). Free tier has strict
-  rate limits; Pro removes them.
-
-Any field of a preset is overridable via `ZERO_OAUTH_<NAME>_*`. For a fully custom
-OAuth/OIDC provider, set those env vars (see `zero auth --help`) and
-`zero auth login <name>`.
-
----
-
-## 2. ChatGPT / Claude subscriptions — why a proxy is required
-
-We researched this carefully. As of mid-2026, a **subscription** OAuth token does
-**not** work as a drop-in bearer against the standard APIs:
-
-- **OpenAI (ChatGPT):** a "Sign in with ChatGPT" token only works against
-  ChatGPT's own backend (`chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses`, the Responses
-  API), **not** `api.openai.com`. That backend is **Cloudflare bot-protected** —
-  non-browser / headless clients get `cf-mitigated: challenge` → `403`. It also
-  requires mimicking the official Codex client (originator + account-id header).
-  **First-class path (this version):** `zero auth chatgpt` does exactly that
-  mimicking (`originator: codex_cli_rs`, `chatgpt-account-id: <claim>`) and
-  routes requests to the Codex backend, no proxy required — see §1. The
-  `chatgpt-proxy` route below is the conservative fallback when Cloudflare
-  challenges become an issue, and is the only path that works without a
-  browser-based ChatGPT OAuth login.
-- **Anthropic (Claude):** the Messages API **rejects** subscription OAuth tokens
-  for third-party use unless the request spoofs the Claude Code identity
-  (`anthropic-beta: oauth-2025-04-20`, `claude-cli` UA, and a verbatim
-  *"You are Claude Code…"* system prompt) — and **even then** tool-using requests
-  on Max plans are routed to a disabled billing lane and `400`. Anthropic's policy
-  **prohibits** subscription-token use outside Claude Code / claude.ai, and the
-  timeline hardened through 2026: a **Feb 19 2026** docs update spelled out that
-  Free/Pro/Max OAuth tokens may not be used in third-party tools or the Agent SDK,
-  then on **April 4 2026** enforcement landed and subscription OAuth tokens
-  **stopped working in third-party harnesses** (starting with OpenClaw, then the
-  rest). As of mid-2026 the only supported ways to drive Claude from a third-party
-  tool are a standard **API key** or pay-as-you-go **"Extra Usage"** billing —
-  both per-token, not the flat subscription. The request to allow subscription use
-  (claude-code #37205) was closed *"not planned."*
-
-So Zero does **not** call those backends directly or spoof those clients — that
-would be fragile, account-risky, and (for Anthropic) against the vendor's terms.
-The robust, supported pattern is a **local proxy** that holds your subscription
-session and exposes a clean OpenAI- or Anthropic-compatible endpoint on
-`127.0.0.1`. The proxy absorbs the Cloudflare / client-spoofing surface; Zero
-just points at it.
-
-### ChatGPT via a local proxy
-
-Run a local ChatGPT OAuth proxy that exposes an OpenAI-compatible endpoint (these
-typically listen on `127.0.0.1:10531/v1`). Then use the built-in **`chatgpt-proxy`**
-preset (no API key — the proxy authenticates):
-
-```jsonc
-// ~/.config/zero/config.json (or ./.zero/config.json)
-{
-  "activeProvider": "chatgpt",
-  "providers": [
-    {
-      "name": "chatgpt",
-      "catalogID": "chatgpt-proxy",     // OpenAI-compatible, local, no key
-      "baseURL": "http://localhost:10531/v1", // override for your proxy's port
-      "model": "gpt-5.5"                 // whatever model your proxy serves
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-```sh
-zero exec --prompt "say hi"   # routes through the proxy → your ChatGPT plan
-```
-
-### Claude via a local proxy
-
-There is no single canonical Claude OAuth-proxy port, so use the generic
-**`custom-anthropic-compatible`** entry pointed at your proxy's Anthropic-compatible
-endpoint:
-
-```jsonc
-{
-  "activeProvider": "claude",
-  "providers": [
-    {
-      "name": "claude",
-      "catalogID": "custom-anthropic-compatible",
-      "baseURL": "http://localhost:<port>",  // your Claude proxy
-      "apiKey": "unused-by-proxy",
-      "model": "claude-sonnet-4.5"
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
----
-
-## 3. Supported alternatives (no proxy)
-
-- **API key (recommended, simplest):** set `OPENAI_API_KEY` / `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
-  (or per-profile `apiKey`) and use the `openai` / `anthropic` catalog providers.
-  Bills as API usage.
-- **Anthropic subscription automation, sanctioned:** spawn the real `claude` CLI
-  (e.g. `claude -p …`) as a subprocess — the only path Anthropic recognizes as a
-  first-class subscription session.
-
----
-
-## Notes
-
-- The `chatgpt-proxy` base URL / port and model are defaults you override for your
-  setup; they are not an endorsement of any specific proxy implementation.
-- Subscription-via-proxy depends on third-party tools and undocumented vendor
-  backends; it can break without notice. The API-key path is the stable one.

+# Agent Eval Benchmark Harness Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Build a local, offline-testable benchmark harness that copies eval fixtures, runs an agent command per task, scores the resulting workspace, and reports aggregate results.
+
+**Architecture:** Keep `internal/agenteval.Runner` as the scoring primitive. Add a `Harness` layer that materializes fixture workspaces into a work directory, initializes a clean Git baseline, invokes an injectable `AgentRunner`, then calls `Runner.Run`. The CLI exposes this as `zero eval bench`, while `zero eval run` remains the lower-level scorer for an already-mutated workspace.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Go 1.24 standard library, existing `internal/agenteval`, existing `internal/cli`, Git CLI for workspace baselines.
+
+---
+
+## File Structure
+
+- Create `internal/agenteval/materialize.go`: fixture path resolution, directory copy, Git init/baseline helpers.
+- Create `internal/agenteval/materialize_test.go`: fixture copy and Git baseline tests.
+- Create `internal/agenteval/agent_command.go`: command-template based agent runner with `{prompt}`, `{workspace}`, `{task_id}` placeholders.
+- Create `internal/agenteval/agent_command_test.go`: placeholder substitution, cwd, exit/error behavior.
+- Create `internal/agenteval/benchmark.go`: benchmark orchestration and aggregate report.
+- Create `internal/agenteval/benchmark_test.go`: end-to-end harness with fake agent runner and sample fixtures.
+- Modify `internal/cli/agent_eval.go`: parse `zero eval bench` and wire `Harness`.
+- Modify `internal/cli/agent_eval_test.go`: bench parsing, JSON/text output, report writing.
+- Modify `docs/AGENT_EVALS.md`: document `bench` mode and real local command examples.

+# Additional write roots (`--add-dir` / `/add-dir`)
+
+**Date:** 2026-06-10
+**Status:** Approved
+
+## Problem
+
+Zero's sandbox confines all writes to the workspace root, with no escape hatch.
+`EnforceWorkspace` is hardcoded `true` in `DefaultPolicy()`
+(`internal/sandbox/types.go`) and `SandboxConfig` exposes only `maxAutonomy`
+and `network`. When a user asks the agent to save output outside the workspace
+(e.g. "save this to ~/Desktop/dev/untitled folder"), every layer denies it:
+
+1. **Policy engine** — `Engine.Evaluate` → `validateWorkspacePaths`
+   (`internal/sandbox/paths.go`) denies tool requests whose paths fall outside
+   the workspace root.
+2. **macOS seatbelt** — `sandboxExecProfile` (`internal/sandbox/runner.go`)
+   emits `(allow file-write* (subpath "<workspaceRoot>"))`, so shell commands
+   fail with `Operation not permitted`.
+3. **Linux bubblewrap** — `bubblewrapCommandPlan` binds only the workspace
+   read-write; system paths are read-only binds.
+4. **File tools** — `resolveWorkspacePath` / `recheckWorkspaceWriteTarget`
+   (`internal/tools/workspace.go`) confine `write_file`, `edit`, `read_file`,
+   `list_directory`, `glob`, `grep`, and the bash tool's `cwd`.
+
+The agent's only recourse is workarounds (zip in workspace, ask the user to
+move it), and the denial surfaces as a raw OS error with no guidance.
+
+## Goal
+
+Let users grant zero write access to specific directories outside the
+workspace — at launch (flag/config) and mid-session (TUI command) — without
+weakening the sandbox elsewhere. Decided UX: **launch flag + runtime command**
+(prompt-on-denial may layer on later).
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- No interactive prompt-on-denial flow in this iteration.
+- No persistence of `/add-dir` grants across sessions (config is the durable
+  surface).
+- No widening of network or destructive-shell policy.
+- No `enforceWorkspace: false` config knob.
+
+## Design
+
+### 1. Core type: `sandbox.Scope`
+
+New concurrency-safe type in `internal/sandbox` (e.g. `scope.go`):
+
+```go
+type Scope struct {
+    mu            sync.RWMutex
+    workspaceRoot string   // normalized at construction
+    extraRoots    []string // normalized, deduplicated
+}
+
+func NewScope(workspaceRoot string, extras []string) (*Scope, error)
+func (s *Scope) Roots() []string            // workspace first, then extras
+func (s *Scope) Add(path string) (string, error) // returns normalized root
+func (s *Scope) validate(path string) *pathViolation // package-internal
+```
+
+`Add` normalization and guardrails:
+
+- Expand a leading `~` to the user home directory.
+- Make absolute, `filepath.Clean`, then `filepath.EvalSymlinks`.
+- The path must exist and be a directory (no auto-create).
+- Reject the filesystem root `/` (and Windows volume roots) — granting it
+  would disable confinement entirely.
+- Adding the workspace root or a path inside any existing root is a
+  no-op (idempotent success, not an error).
+
+`Validate` generalizes today's `validateWorkspacePath`: a path is allowed if
+it validates under **any** root, including the per-segment symlink-traversal
+check against that root. The existing single-root function remains as the
+per-root helper.
+
+One `*Scope` is constructed at startup and shared by the engine, the command
+runner, and the tool registry, so a mid-session `Add` is immediately visible
+to all layers.
+
+### 2. Policy engine
+
+- `EngineOptions` gains `Scope *Scope`; `NewEngine` builds a workspace-only
+  scope when nil (back-compat for tests/embedders).
+- `Evaluate`'s workspace check (engine.go) calls `scope.Validate` per
+  requested path instead of `validateWorkspacePaths(root, request)`.
+- Risk classification (`risk.go`) treats paths inside any scope root as
+  in-workspace, so writes to granted roots are not classified
+  `out_of_workspace`/critical.
+- Denial reason becomes actionable:
+  `"<path> is outside the workspace (use /add-dir or --add-dir to allow writes there)"`.
+
+### 3. OS runners
+
+- `sandboxExecProfile` emits one `(subpath "...")` per scope root inside the
+  single `(allow file-write* ...)` rule.
+- `bubblewrapCommandPlan` adds `--bind <root> <root>` (read-write, real path)
+  for each extra root. The workspace keeps its `/workspace` remount; extra
+  roots keep their host paths so absolute paths in commands work unchanged.
+- `resolveCommandDir` accepts a command `cwd` inside any scope root.
+- Profiles are built per command plan from `scope.Roots()`, so commands run
+  after `/add-dir` get the widened profile with no restart.
+
+### 4. File tools
+
+- New narrow interface in `internal/tools`:
+  `type PathScope interface { Roots() []string }` (satisfied by
+  `*sandbox.Scope`) to avoid a hard dependency direction problem.
+- `resolveWorkspacePath` and `recheckWorkspaceWriteTarget` gain scope-aware
+  variants: absolute paths are resolved against the first root that contains
+  them; **relative paths still resolve against the workspace root only**.
+- Tool constructors (`CoreReadOnlyTools`, `CoreWriteTools`, `CoreShellTools`,
+  `CoreTools` in `registry.go`) accept the scope (workspace-only default kept
+  via a convenience wrapper so existing call sites/tests keep compiling).
+- Result: `write_file`, `edit`, `read_file`, `list_directory`, `glob`, `grep`,
+  and bash `cwd` all work consistently inside extra roots. Write access
+  implies read access within a granted root.
+
+### 5. Config, CLI, TUI
+
+- **Config:** `SandboxConfig` gains
+  `AdditionalWriteRoots []string \`json:"additionalWriteRoots,omitempty"\``.
+  The key is honored from the **global user config**
+  (`os.UserConfigDir()/zero/config.json`) so a grant can apply to every
+  project, and from CLI flags/overrides. It is **deliberately excluded from
+  the project config allowlist** (`mergeProjectConfig`): a repo-controlled
+  `.zero/config.json` must not be able to widen write access outside the
+  workspace. Sources are merged as a union (append + dedupe), not replace.
+- **CLI:** repeatable `--add-dir <path>` flag on `zero` (TUI) and `zero exec`.
+  Effective set = union(flag, config), normalized through `Scope` at startup;
+  an invalid root fails fast with a clear error.
+- **TUI:** new `/add-dir` command (`internal/tui/commands.go`):
+  - `/add-dir` (bare) — lists current write roots.
+  - `/add-dir <path>` — calls `scope.Add`; on success appends a system line:
+    `write access added: <path> (this session only)`; on failure shows the
+    normalization error.
+- **Observability:** `zero sandbox` status output and sandbox snapshots
+  (`internal/zerocommands/sandbox_snapshots.go`) list extra roots.
+
+### 6. Security invariants
+
+- Extra roots only widen *file-write* (and file-tool read) access under the
+  named directories; network and destructive-shell policy are untouched.
+- Symlink-traversal protection applies per root exactly as it does for the
+  workspace today.
+- `/` and volume roots are rejected; roots are symlink-resolved before being
+  trusted so a symlinked grant cannot silently point elsewhere later.
+- Runtime grants are session-only; durable grants require editing config.
+
+### 7. Testing
+
+- **Scope unit tests:** normalization (`~`, relative, symlink), rejection of
+  `/`, missing dirs, files; idempotent adds; multi-root `Validate` including
+  symlink-traversal escapes from one root into another denied area.
+- **Runner tests:** seatbelt profile string contains one `subpath` per root;
+  bubblewrap args contain the extra `--bind`s; `resolveCommandDir` accepts
+  extra-root cwd (extend `runner_test.go`).
+- **Engine tests:** out-of-workspace write allowed when inside an extra root;
+  still denied (with the new actionable message) when outside all roots.
+- **Tool tests:** `write_file`/`edit`/`read_file` in an extra root succeed;
+  relative paths never resolve against extra roots (extend
+  `file_tools_test.go`).
+- **TUI tests:** `parseCommand` recognizes `/add-dir`; handler list/add/error
+  paths.
+- **Config/CLI tests:** flag-config union, fail-fast on invalid root.
+- Platform-gated integration tests follow the existing sandbox test patterns.
+
+## Implementation order
+
+1. `sandbox.Scope` + tests.
+2. Engine + risk + runner integration (flag-less, scope seeded empty).
+3. File-tool scope plumbing.
+4. Config key + CLI flags.
+5. TUI `/add-dir` command + status output.

+# Permission-UX Phase 1 — scope-enforced grants
+
+Status: approved (2026-06-11). Branch: `feat/permission-ux` (continues Phase 0, commit `742ff48`).
+
+## Problem
+
+Phase 0 derives a human-readable *scope* for a tool call (the file, directory, or
+cwd it touches) and shows it on the permission card and the persisted decision
+row. But the grant that an "always allow" writes is still **tool-wide**:
+
+- `persistPermissionGrant` (agent/loop.go) stores only `ToolName`.
+- the grant file is keyed by tool name: `state.Grants[toolName]`.
+- enforcement (`engine.Decide` → `store.Lookup(toolName, autonomy)`, engine.go:100)
+  matches on tool name alone.
+
+So clicking "always allow" on a write to `src/main.go` silently authorizes *every*
+future write — the blind-yes the Phase-0 card was written to warn against.
+
+## Goal
+
+Persist and enforce the scope so an "always" grant covers exactly what the card
+showed: that file, or that directory subtree — nothing else.
+
+## Decisions
+
+1. **Match semantics:** a `file` scope re-matches only its exact path; a `dir`
+   scope matches that directory and any descendant; an empty scope (a call with no
+   path-like arg, e.g. `bash` with no `cwd`) stays tool-wide. A tool-wide *request*
+   is **not** covered by a narrower grant — it re-prompts (fail-safe).
+2. **Path anchoring:** scopes are normalized to an absolute, cleaned path at grant
+   time, anchored to the workspace root. Matching compares absolute paths, so
+   `./src/main.go` == `src/main.go` == `/proj/src/main.go`, and a grant made in
+   `/proj-a` never matches `/proj-b`. The card still displays the short relative form.
+3. **Storage:** `grants` becomes `map[toolName][]Grant`, one record per
+   (scope, decision). Schema bumps `1 → 2`; a v1 file is migrated by reading each
+   entry as a single tool-wide grant, so existing grants keep working unchanged.
+4. **Precedence:** among grants that cover a request, a covering **deny wins**
+   (regardless of autonomy); otherwise the most-specific covering **allow**
+   (file > dir > tool-wide; ties broken by longer path, then newest) whose
+   `MaxAutonomy` satisfies the request.
+
+## Design
+
+### Scope derivation — single source of truth (`internal/sandbox/grant_scope.go`)
+
+`DeriveScope(toolName, args) (raw string, kind ScopeKind)` is the one place that
+knows which args are path-like, reusing Phase 0's key priority (most specific
+first): `path`,`file` → `file`; `directory`,`dir`,`cwd` → `dir`. Empty / `.` →
+tool-wide. `resolveScopeAbs(raw, workspaceRoot)` cleans and absolutizes (relative
+anchored to the workspace root; falls back to `filepath.Abs` when the root is
+empty). `agent.permissionScope` (Phase-0 display) is refactored to call
+`DeriveScope`, so the displayed scope and the stored/matched scope can never diverge.
+
+`ScopeKind`: `""` (tool-wide) | `"file"` | `"dir"`.
+
+### Data model (`internal/sandbox/grants.go`)
+
+`Grant` gains `Scope` (absolute path, `omitempty`) and `ScopeKind` (`omitempty`).
+`grantFile.Grants` becomes `map[string][]Grant`; `grantSchemaVersion` = 2.
+`GrantInput` gains `Scope` (raw) + `ScopeKind`.
+
+### Grant creation
+
+The agent derives `(raw, kind)` via `DeriveScope` and passes them in `GrantInput`.
+`engine.Grant` resolves `Scope` to absolute using its configured `workspaceRoot`
+(the engine already holds one — engine.go:33) before delegating to `store.Grant`,
+which appends to the tool's slice (replacing a same-scope entry). CLI grants
+(`zero sandbox grants allow|deny <tool>`) leave the scope empty → tool-wide, as today.
+
+### Matching (`engine.Decide` → `store.Lookup`)
+
+`Decide` derives the request's absolute scope from `request.Args` +
+`request.WorkspaceRoot` (already populated at engine.go:63) and passes it to a
+scope-aware `Lookup(toolName, reqScopeAbs, autonomy)`. `grantCovers` implements the
+match semantics above; `Lookup` applies the deny-wins / most-specific-allow
+precedence and the per-grant autonomy check. The surrounding allow/deny/ceiling
+flow (engine.go:99-126) is unchanged.
+
+### Migration & a fixed bug
+
+`readState` peeks at `schemaVersion`: v1 (`map[string]Grant`) entries become single
+tool-wide grants; v2 reads `map[string][]Grant`; anything else still errors with
+"unsupported schemaVersion". Keys are canonicalized (trimmed) on read so a
+whitespace-padded tool name matches at lookup — closing audit finding #90
+(grants.go:146). `writeState` always emits v2.
+
+### CLI surface
+
+`List()` flattens to `[]Grant` (sorted by tool, then scope). `FormatGrantList`
+shows the scope (`*` for tool-wide). `Revoke(toolName)` removes all of a tool's
+grants and returns the count. Per-scope revoke is out of scope.
+
+## Testing
+
+- `grant_scope_test` / `grants_test`: `DeriveScope` kinds; `resolveScopeAbs` (relative
+  anchored, `./` equivalence, absolute passthrough, cross-project non-match);
+  `grantCovers` matrix (tool-wide/file/dir × equal/descendant/sibling/parent/
+  empty-request); deny-precedence; per-grant + policy autonomy; v1→v2 migration
+  round-trip; whitespace-key canonicalization; `FormatGrantList` scope rendering.
+- `engine_test`: covered scoped request auto-allows; uncovered sibling re-prompts;
+  dir deny blocks a subtree request; legacy tool-wide grant still allows.
+- `agent`: `persistPermissionGrant` forwards scope+kind; `TestPermissionScope`
+  stays green (display unchanged).
+
+## Out of scope
+
+Card UI changes (Phase 0), per-scope revoke, glob/pattern scopes.
