CHANGELOG.md

@@ -7,8 +7,16 @@ and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0
 
 ## [Unreleased]
 
+- **Renaming sessions with Chinese titles:** the session picker no longer rejects a Chinese, Japanese, Korean or emoji title of more than about 33 characters as "Title must be 1–100 characters". It now counts characters, as the message says and as `/rename` and the Runtime API already did, so any title up to 100 characters is accepted. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7322).
+- **Non-ASCII file names:** `/diff`, the `@git` and `@diff` mentions and the Runtime API workspace diff now show paths with Chinese, emoji and other non-ASCII characters as written instead of as quoted octal escapes, and the turn context no longer lists the workspace root as an empty "Active paths" entry. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7317).
+- **Session names after a crash, and keep-forever snapshot retention:** a session name saved right after a crash that cut off the previous session-index line is no longer lost, because the new entry now starts on its own line; and a very large `[snapshots] max_age_days` (such as `9223372036854775807` for "keep forever") no longer wraps around and deletes every undo snapshot at session start. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7316).
+- **Blank environment variables:** exporting a variable empty (for example `CODEWHALE_MODEL=` from a compose `${VAR:-}` template) no longer hides its legacy alias. `DEEPSEEK_MODEL`, `DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL`, `KIMI_BASE_URL`, `DEEPSEEK_FORCE_HTTP1`, `DEEPSEEK_STREAM_OPEN_TIMEOUT_SECS` and the other provider alias variables now apply as they do when the primary is unset. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7315).
+- **Qwen Code as an external agent:** Codewhale now finds an installed Qwen Code CLI (`qwen`, 0.6.1 or newer) and can run it as a session over ACP with `qwen --acp`. `GET /v1/agents/external` lists it, an older install is reported as needing `npm i -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest`, and sign-in stays inside Qwen Code (`/auth`). Thanks [@MannXo](https://github.com/MannXo) (PR 7293).
+- **MCP and language servers that send requests mid-call:** a tool call no longer fails with "neither a result nor an error" when an MCP server sends a `ping` or other request that reuses the call's id while the call is running, and a language server's `workspace/configuration` or similar request no longer ends a pending LSP request. Codewhale now answers `ping`, answers other server requests with "Method not found" (it never advertised them), keeps waiting for the real reply, and a refused answer over Streamable HTTP no longer drops the connection to legacy SSE. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7319).
+- **Qwen Code as an external agent:** Codewhale now finds an installed Qwen Code CLI (`qwen`, 0.6.1 or newer) and can run it as a session over ACP with `qwen --acp`. `GET /v1/agents/external` lists it, an older install is reported as needing `npm i -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest`, and sign-in stays inside Qwen Code (`/auth`). Thanks [@MannXo](https://github.com/MannXo) (#7293).
 - **README and contributor credit:** the repository front page now opens the way the website does: the line "The model can be anyone's. The agent should be yours.", one sentence on what Codewhale is, the install command and one picture, with reference detail moved into the linked guides; the 18 translated READMEs follow the same structure and say they are machine-drafted. The contributor wall and the website now count the same 433 people (407 GitHub accounts and the commit authors whose email is not linked to an account), where the website had counted accounts only. `DEPENDENCY_SECURITY.md` moved into `docs/dependency-maintenance.md`, and `.github/SUPPORT.md` says where to ask for help.
 - **Website Plugins page:** The website's Plugins page now describes what the released version does, and a labelled section says what 0.10.3 adds: one Plugins place, Standard and Creator mode, and the Permissions control.
+- **First-time guide on the website:** a new docs page, "Use Codewhale for the first time" (`/docs/first-time`, English and Simplified Chinese), walks someone who has never used a terminal through opening one, installing, choosing the folder Codewhale works in and when that choice matters, opening a terminal in a folder from Finder or File Explorer, connecting a model, a first task, and stopping, undoing and quitting. The install page gains a short "New to the terminal?" block for macOS and Windows that links to it, and `llms.txt` carries the same steps.
 - **Plugin docs and plugin-creator:** Docs now say everything you add is a plugin. The bundled plugin-creator skill no longer tells an agent never to trust or enable a plugin (in Full Access it may, for one it wrote and installed from its project), points code and screen plugins at cordis-plugin-development, and an untouched copy from 0.10.2 now upgrades. The Chinese extension and Runtime API docs now say editor ACP sessions get plugin tools and configured MCP servers.
 - **Model thinking:** New installs show model thinking by default: it streams live in the transcript and collapses under a "Thought for …" header when the answer starts. Existing installs keep their saved setting; turn it on under Model reasoning in chat in /config.
 - **Footer clock:** The footer clock and phase now say "thinking", matching the transcript.

 - **Windows uninstall removes the receipt and update leftovers.** The installer's uninstaller also deletes `.codewhale-install.sha256` and `codewhale.old-*`/`codew.old-*` left by a self-update, so `bin` can be removed. Refs #7091.
 - **Windows `/undo` matches recorded file paths regardless of case.** A write recorded under a different drive-letter or directory case, or a `\\?\` prefix, is no longer dropped from the restore plan. Refs #6970.
 - **Windows: Fleet and metrics read live files again.** Replaying a Fleet ledger and reading audit or receipt records no longer fail with a sharing violation while their writer is still open; the same regular-file, link and identity checks apply. Plugin enablement now says which snapshot check refused (stage root, content identity or final check) instead of one generic message. Generated protocol and SDK exports keep LF line endings in Windows checkouts.
-- **Sessions in one folder no longer leave each other's sub-agents read-only or private:** a second session works beside another one, stale or suspended included, the older sub-agent store upgrades right away, and a store that cannot be opened is retried on the next sub-agent change instead of needing a restart. While another Codewhale session, a suspended one included, is open in a folder the desktop app or `serve` was asked to work in (other than the folder it started in), that Runtime still refuses sub-agents that would edit the folder directly; isolated worktrees are unaffected. A sub-agent store that cannot be opened shows its refusal once instead of repeating cleanup warnings on every sidebar refresh. Restart any session started with Codewhale 0.10.2 or older: once the folder upgrades it can no longer save sub-agent state (Refs #7232).
+- **A held coordination lock no longer makes a new session read-only.** When another session owns the delegated-agent store, the new session starts on private state and says so, instead of refusing every sub-agent with “Failed to clean up sub-agents”.
 - **A dev server can outlive the turn in an interactive session.** `persist:true` now works in the TUI and desktop when the thread has Full Access; restricted postures and Fleet/sub-agents still refuse it.
 - **`codewhale exec --add-dir <path>`** (repeatable) and `addDirs` on `POST /v1/threads` let the file tools read and write a sibling directory, a second checkout or a shared scratch root without turning on Full Access.
 - **Unsettled usage is persisted in production, not only in tests.** The interactive sink now records a legacy usage receipt when a provider response has no settlement, so children and turns stop reporting settlement failure.

+- **Coordination lock diagnostics (#7232):** stale lock-file contents no longer
+  identify an owner PID. A refused legacy admission keeps its reason in Work
+  and shows one notice per cause instead of repeating cleanup warnings on
+  every sidebar refresh. Legacy migration still requires the actual holder to
+  exit and the refused owning Runtime to restart; locks and retained state
+  remain protected.
 - **A local proxy that stops mid-session no longer strands the session (#7231):** the model, catalog, search, vision, finance, MCP-registry, profile and remote-control clients watch a loopback proxy port and go direct while it refuses connections, then resume proxying when it returns. Only a definite refusal from every resolved address changes the route; remote proxies, `NO_PROXY` matches, credentials and the existing precedence are unchanged. Set `CODEWHALE_LOCAL_PROXY_FALLBACK=0` to keep the old build-time snapshot.
 - **Proxy diagnostic privacy ([#7233](https://github.com/codewhale-hq/codewhale/issues/7233)):** malformed MCP proxy warnings omit configured values; local-proxy log labels mask userinfo and omit URL paths, queries and fragments. Routing is unchanged. All 23 existing proxy tests passed on macOS; runtime log capture and other platforms remain unqualified. Thanks [@SparkofSpike](https://github.com/SparkofSpike) for the report.
 - **Fork, undo and retry work after a workspace drift notice (#7234):** the history-boundary walks now treat a whole `<context_update>` envelope as engine-owned, so a session that received one can be cut at every saved turn. A person quoting a notice or a truncated envelope still counts as their own prompt.

@@ -7,8 +7,16 @@ and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0
 
 ## [Unreleased]
 
+- **Renaming sessions with Chinese titles:** the session picker no longer rejects a Chinese, Japanese, Korean or emoji title of more than about 33 characters as "Title must be 1–100 characters". It now counts characters, as the message says and as `/rename` and the Runtime API already did, so any title up to 100 characters is accepted. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7322).
+- **Non-ASCII file names:** `/diff`, the `@git` and `@diff` mentions and the Runtime API workspace diff now show paths with Chinese, emoji and other non-ASCII characters as written instead of as quoted octal escapes, and the turn context no longer lists the workspace root as an empty "Active paths" entry. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7317).
+- **Session names after a crash, and keep-forever snapshot retention:** a session name saved right after a crash that cut off the previous session-index line is no longer lost, because the new entry now starts on its own line; and a very large `[snapshots] max_age_days` (such as `9223372036854775807` for "keep forever") no longer wraps around and deletes every undo snapshot at session start. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7316).
+- **Blank environment variables:** exporting a variable empty (for example `CODEWHALE_MODEL=` from a compose `${VAR:-}` template) no longer hides its legacy alias. `DEEPSEEK_MODEL`, `DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL`, `KIMI_BASE_URL`, `DEEPSEEK_FORCE_HTTP1`, `DEEPSEEK_STREAM_OPEN_TIMEOUT_SECS` and the other provider alias variables now apply as they do when the primary is unset. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7315).
+- **Qwen Code as an external agent:** Codewhale now finds an installed Qwen Code CLI (`qwen`, 0.6.1 or newer) and can run it as a session over ACP with `qwen --acp`. `GET /v1/agents/external` lists it, an older install is reported as needing `npm i -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest`, and sign-in stays inside Qwen Code (`/auth`). Thanks [@MannXo](https://github.com/MannXo) (PR 7293).
+- **MCP and language servers that send requests mid-call:** a tool call no longer fails with "neither a result nor an error" when an MCP server sends a `ping` or other request that reuses the call's id while the call is running, and a language server's `workspace/configuration` or similar request no longer ends a pending LSP request. Codewhale now answers `ping`, answers other server requests with "Method not found" (it never advertised them), keeps waiting for the real reply, and a refused answer over Streamable HTTP no longer drops the connection to legacy SSE. Thanks [@luochen211](https://github.com/luochen211) (PR 7319).
+- **Qwen Code as an external agent:** Codewhale now finds an installed Qwen Code CLI (`qwen`, 0.6.1 or newer) and can run it as a session over ACP with `qwen --acp`. `GET /v1/agents/external` lists it, an older install is reported as needing `npm i -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest`, and sign-in stays inside Qwen Code (`/auth`). Thanks [@MannXo](https://github.com/MannXo) (#7293).
 - **README and contributor credit:** the repository front page now opens the way the website does: the line "The model can be anyone's. The agent should be yours.", one sentence on what Codewhale is, the install command and one picture, with reference detail moved into the linked guides; the 18 translated READMEs follow the same structure and say they are machine-drafted. The contributor wall and the website now count the same 433 people (407 GitHub accounts and the commit authors whose email is not linked to an account), where the website had counted accounts only. `DEPENDENCY_SECURITY.md` moved into `docs/dependency-maintenance.md`, and `.github/SUPPORT.md` says where to ask for help.
 - **Website Plugins page:** The website's Plugins page now describes what the released version does, and a labelled section says what 0.10.3 adds: one Plugins place, Standard and Creator mode, and the Permissions control.
+- **First-time guide on the website:** a new docs page, "Use Codewhale for the first time" (`/docs/first-time`, English and Simplified Chinese), walks someone who has never used a terminal through opening one, installing, choosing the folder Codewhale works in and when that choice matters, opening a terminal in a folder from Finder or File Explorer, connecting a model, a first task, and stopping, undoing and quitting. The install page gains a short "New to the terminal?" block for macOS and Windows that links to it, and `llms.txt` carries the same steps.
 - **Plugin docs and plugin-creator:** Docs now say everything you add is a plugin. The bundled plugin-creator skill no longer tells an agent never to trust or enable a plugin (in Full Access it may, for one it wrote and installed from its project), points code and screen plugins at cordis-plugin-development, and an untouched copy from 0.10.2 now upgrades. The Chinese extension and Runtime API docs now say editor ACP sessions get plugin tools and configured MCP servers.
 - **Model thinking:** New installs show model thinking by default: it streams live in the transcript and collapses under a "Thought for …" header when the answer starts. Existing installs keep their saved setting; turn it on under Model reasoning in chat in /config.
 - **Footer clock:** The footer clock and phase now say "thinking", matching the transcript.

 - **Windows uninstall removes the receipt and update leftovers.** The installer's uninstaller also deletes `.codewhale-install.sha256` and `codewhale.old-*`/`codew.old-*` left by a self-update, so `bin` can be removed. Refs #7091.
 - **Windows `/undo` matches recorded file paths regardless of case.** A write recorded under a different drive-letter or directory case, or a `\\?\` prefix, is no longer dropped from the restore plan. Refs #6970.
 - **Windows: Fleet and metrics read live files again.** Replaying a Fleet ledger and reading audit or receipt records no longer fail with a sharing violation while their writer is still open; the same regular-file, link and identity checks apply. Plugin enablement now says which snapshot check refused (stage root, content identity or final check) instead of one generic message. Generated protocol and SDK exports keep LF line endings in Windows checkouts.
-- **Sessions in one folder no longer leave each other's sub-agents read-only or private:** a second session works beside another one, stale or suspended included, the older sub-agent store upgrades right away, and a store that cannot be opened is retried on the next sub-agent change instead of needing a restart. While another Codewhale session, a suspended one included, is open in a folder the desktop app or `serve` was asked to work in (other than the folder it started in), that Runtime still refuses sub-agents that would edit the folder directly; isolated worktrees are unaffected. A sub-agent store that cannot be opened shows its refusal once instead of repeating cleanup warnings on every sidebar refresh. Restart any session started with Codewhale 0.10.2 or older: once the folder upgrades it can no longer save sub-agent state (Refs #7232).
+- **A held coordination lock no longer makes a new session read-only.** When another session owns the delegated-agent store, the new session starts on private state and says so, instead of refusing every sub-agent with “Failed to clean up sub-agents”.
 - **A dev server can outlive the turn in an interactive session.** `persist:true` now works in the TUI and desktop when the thread has Full Access; restricted postures and Fleet/sub-agents still refuse it.
 - **`codewhale exec --add-dir <path>`** (repeatable) and `addDirs` on `POST /v1/threads` let the file tools read and write a sibling directory, a second checkout or a shared scratch root without turning on Full Access.
 - **Unsettled usage is persisted in production, not only in tests.** The interactive sink now records a legacy usage receipt when a provider response has no settlement, so children and turns stop reporting settlement failure.

+- **Coordination lock diagnostics (#7232):** stale lock-file contents no longer
+  identify an owner PID. A refused legacy admission keeps its reason in Work
+  and shows one notice per cause instead of repeating cleanup warnings on
+  every sidebar refresh. Legacy migration still requires the actual holder to
+  exit and the refused owning Runtime to restart; locks and retained state
+  remain protected.
 - **A local proxy that stops mid-session no longer strands the session (#7231):** the model, catalog, search, vision, finance, MCP-registry, profile and remote-control clients watch a loopback proxy port and go direct while it refuses connections, then resume proxying when it returns. Only a definite refusal from every resolved address changes the route; remote proxies, `NO_PROXY` matches, credentials and the existing precedence are unchanged. Set `CODEWHALE_LOCAL_PROXY_FALLBACK=0` to keep the old build-time snapshot.
 - **Proxy diagnostic privacy ([#7233](https://github.com/codewhale-hq/codewhale/issues/7233)):** malformed MCP proxy warnings omit configured values; local-proxy log labels mask userinfo and omit URL paths, queries and fragments. Routing is unchanged. All 23 existing proxy tests passed on macOS; runtime log capture and other platforms remain unqualified. Thanks [@SparkofSpike](https://github.com/SparkofSpike) for the report.
 - **Fork, undo and retry work after a workspace drift notice (#7234):** the history-boundary walks now treat a whole `<context_update>` envelope as engine-owned, so a session that received one can be cut at every saved turn.

It explains the main\nworkflow, the important safety controls, and where to go next when you need a\ncomplete reference.\n\nCodewhale has deeper reference documents for installation, configuration,\nproviders, modes, keybindings, tools, and operations. Use this page as a guided\nwalkthrough, then follow the \"Next\" links when you need every option.\n\n## 1. Welcome to Codewhale\n\nCodewhale is a terminal coding agent. You run it from a workspace, give it a\ntask, and it can use structured tools to inspect files, run commands, edit\ncode, and report back with evidence.\n\nThe important difference from a normal chat model is that Codewhale is built\naround a harness:\n\n- It keeps the active workspace and session visible.\n- It routes each turn through explicit modes and approval rules.\n- It shows tool calls in the transcript instead of hiding the work.\n- It can preserve sessions, fork conversations, and continue later.\n- It can run sub-agents for focused background work.\n\nYou can use Codewhale for small questions:\n\n```text\nExplain the authentication flow in this repository.\n```\n\nYou can also use it for multi-step work:\n\n```text\nFind the failing validation path, propose a fix, and wait for my approval\nbefore editing files.\n```\n\nFor a new repository, start conservatively. Ask Codewhale to explore and plan\nbefore asking it to change files. That gives you a reviewable path and makes it\neasier to catch wrong assumptions early.\n\nNext: [ARCHITECTURE.md](ARCHITECTURE.md) explains the internal harness and\nruntime model.\n\n## 2. First Launch\n\nFor a new macOS or Linux installation, use the official GitHub release.\nThe installer verifies the release checksums and provides the same runtime\nunder the `codewhale` and `codew` command names:\n\n```bash\ncurl -fsSL https://codewhale.net/install.sh | sh\n```\n\nWindows users should choose the matching installer or archive from\n[GitHub Releases](https://github.com/codewhale-hq/CodeWhale/releases/latest).\nFor an existing direct install, use `codewhale update --check`, then\n`codewhale update`. npm and Cargo remain secondary packaging routes; Cargo\nalso supports source builds where a compatible prebuilt is unavailable.\nFor occupied directories, package-managed installs, and PATH setup, follow\n[the installation and migration guide](INSTALL.md#recommended-official-github-releases).\nAndroid/Termux uses its own [preview archive or source-build path](INSTALL.md#android--termux-arm64).\n\nDocker is also available when you want an isolated runtime. The published\nimage is currently 0.10.0; to test current `main`, [build it from source](DOCKER.md#building-locally).\n\n```bash\ndocker volume create codewhale-home\ndocker run --rm -it \\\n  -e DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=\"$DEEPSEEK_API_KEY\" \\\n  -v codewhale-home:/home/codewhale/.codewhale \\\n  -v \"$PWD:/workspace\" \\\n  -w /workspace \\\n  ghcr.io/hmbown/codewhale:latest\n```\n\nOnce the install directory is on PATH, launch Codewhale from the repository or\ndirectory you want it to work in:\n\n```bash\ncodewhale\n```\n\nFor the default GitHub installer destination, you can use\n`\"$HOME/.local/bin/codewhale\"` until that directory is on PATH.\n\nOn first launch, Codewhale opens the composer, even with no key or route.\nWith no key or route, workspace trust is asked once a provider is connected;\notherwise only when the folder requires a decision. A provider is asked for\nwhen you send your first message: the message stays in the box while you sign\nin or use your own key, and a local model is offered only when a local Ollama\nserver answers. The provider step also has an explicit offline route.\n\nEverything optional stays available after that. Use `/setup` for the\nprogressive setup and repair guide, `/settings` for the full typed editor, and\n`/constitution` when you want your own constitution on top of the bundled one.\nThe localized telemetry choice appears only after the workspace is ready and\ndoes not block the composer.\n\nDeepSeek is the default provider. If you want to configure its key before or\nafter the first launch, the most direct setup path is:\n\n```bash\ncodewhale auth set --provider deepseek\n```\n\nYou can also provide a key through the environment:\n\n```bash\nexport DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=\"your-key\"\ncodewhale\n```\n\nNew Codewhale config is stored under `~/.codewhale/config.toml`. Legacy\n`~/.deepseek/config.toml` files are still supported for users migrating from\nthe old name.\n\nUse `/constitution` to review or change standing guidance. After setup, run a\ndoctor check:\n\n```bash\ncodewhale doctor\n```\n\nUse the JSON form when you need a machine-readable report for an issue:\n\n```bash\ncodewhale doctor --json\n```\n\nBoth forms are offline by default. They report structural configuration and\nliteral unknown/not-probed credential states without loading workspace `.env`\ncredentials, openiLine truncated

You give\nit a task (\"fix the failing test\", \"add a CLI flag\"). It reads your repository,\nedits files and runs commands. In the default **Accept Edits** posture it\napplies file edits inside the repository immediately and shows you the diff,\nand asks before each shell command, so commit or stash anything you care about\nfirst. **Ask** (`Shift+Tab` round the dial, or `/config`) asks before every\nedit as well. It works with many model\nproviders. **DeepSeek** is the default.\n\nThe command is `codewhale`. `codew` is a shorter alias for the same program.\n\nThe installation paths were first checked with **v0.10.0** (released 2026-09-22) on a\nfresh **Ubuntu 24.04 x86_64** machine. The dated\n[install receipts](https://github.com/codewhale-hq/Codewhale/blob/37ecdfcc49bc68a9b0d058b97c3946e62c34bd31/docs/install-report/v0.10.0-2026-09-23/RECEIPTS.md) record the commands and output checked at that time. Steps that\ncould not be run on that machine are marked **(untested on this VM: reason)**.\nmacOS, Windows and Android are out of scope, apart from a few notes. A second\npass re-ran the installer, manual-download, archive and npm paths, the no-key\nchecks and zsh completion on **macOS 26.1 (Apple silicon)**; see\n[macOS notes](#macos-notes). Steps that need a model call were not re-run\nthere.\n\nInstall commands that use `latest` resolve to the latest **published** GitHub\nRelease or package. Between releases, `main` may already describe the next\nversion (for example a v0.10.3 source candidate before its tag). A\nprebuilt candidate is available through the official installer only after its\ntag, checksums and release assets exist. Contributors can build `main` now.\n\n## No account needed\n\nCodewhale needs no account. Keys you save with `/provider` or\n`codewhale auth set` stay on your machine; see\n[API keys and providers](#8-api-keys-and-providers). New Codewhale accounts\nare not open, so this guide does not cover account key storage.\n\n## Test and contribute to current source\n\n`latest` selects the latest published release. To test unreleased repairs,\nbuild canonical GitHub `main`, or CNB `main` after verifying its commit matches.\nThe source version number alone does not establish a published package.\n\n```bash\ngit clone --branch main https://github.com/codewhale-hq/CodeWhale.git\ncd CodeWhale\ncargo build --release --locked -p codewhale-cli\ntarget/release/codewhale --version\n```\n\nSee the Cargo section for build prerequisites; use the repository's stable Rust\nselection (declared minimum 1.89). Windows uses `target/release/codewhale.exe`\nand needs MSVC. A development build is separate from a signed release package.\nFor mainland-China downloads and source validation, see [CNB mirror](CNB_MIRROR.md).\nThe [Tencent Lighthouse bootstrap](../scripts/tencent-lighthouse/README.md) is\nbilingual. An npm registry mirror serves the wrapper; native binary downloads\nstill need an available release asset source.\n\n---\n\n## 60-second quickstart (Linux or macOS)\n\n```bash\n# 1. Install. Downloads two checksum-verified binaries into ~/.local/bin (no sudo).\ncurl -fsSL https://codewhale.net/install.sh | sh\n\n# 2. The installer adds ~/.local/bin to your shell profile (it prints what it added and\n#    how to undo it; --no-modify-path skips that). Shells that are already open do not\n#    reread the profile, so use it in this one now, then check it.\nexport PATH=\"$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH\"; hash -r\ncodewhale --version          # -> codewhale 0.10.0 (1be1a703b975)\n\n# 3. Give it a DeepSeek API key (from https://platform.deepseek.com/api_keys).\ncodewhale auth set --provider deepseek    # prompts for the key; nothing is echoed\ncodewhale auth status --provider deepseek # \"active source: secret store\"\n\n# 4. Run your first task inside a git repository.\ncd ~/your-project\ncodewhale\n```\n\nIn the TUI, type something concrete:\n\n```text\ncreate a Python file primes.py that prints the first 10 primes, run it, and show me the output\n```\n\nCodewhale writes the file, shows you a diff, then asks **APPROVAL: bash\npython3 primes.py – Do you want to proceed?** Press `y` to allow it once. It\nruns the command and reports the output. Press `Ctrl-D` (with an empty input\nbox) to quit. It prints the command to resume the session later.\n\n> **If nothing happens after you send your first message,** you have not\n> connected a model. v0.10.2 shows `no model connected · run /provider` on its\n> first screen and returns your first message to the composer. Type `/provider`,\n> choose a provider or paste a Custom endpoint, then send it again.

A workflow adds ordering, result\nhandoffs, gates and a progress view. The active mode and permission posture\nstill control what each step may execute.\n\nBefore assigning steps, query `agent(action=\"roster\")` for the saved Fleet\nmodels and roles. A plan child can select a listed model with `model`, or use\nthe saved `role`/`profile` assignment. An Exact Fleet fixes each member's route.\n\n## TUI Modes\n\nOne dial says how much Codewhale may do without asking. Press `Shift+Tab` to\nstep it: **Ask → Accept Edits → Plan → Auto-Review → Full Access → Ask**. Plan\nis the Plan mode; every other stop is Work with that permission posture. The\nfooter shows the current stop and `Shift+Tab to change`. New installs start on\nAccept Edits when no permission posture is saved. An explicit saved choice,\nincluding Ask from an earlier version, stays in control.\n`Tab` only completes composer menus, commands, file mentions and suggestions;\nit never changes the mode, and never sends or queues composer text (use\n`Enter`).\nEvery change of effective permission writes a `Permissions changed to …` line\nin the transcript.\nPress `Ctrl+T` to cycle reasoning effort.\nRun `/mode` to open the mode picker, or switch directly with `/mode work` or\n`/mode plan`. `operate` and its spellings still parse, as Work, and say that\nOperate was retired, so an older setting or script never errors.\n\n- **Plan**: design-first prompting. The stable primitive names remain familiar, but the runtime centrally refuses file mutation and shell execution. Read-only inspection and policy-allowed research, including deferred Web search/fetch, remain available. When a Plan turn successfully finishes a nonempty response, including a prose-only plan, the TUI asks how to continue: Work (Ask), Work (Accept Edits), Work (Auto-Review), or keep planning. Work sends the exact approved response as a normal follow-up and preserves that turn's existing To-dos, or adds one pending plan item without replacing unrelated work.\n- **Work** (internally `agent`): ordinary multi-step execution. The first-turn toolbox includes `read`, `write`, `edit`, `file_search`, `grep_files`, `bash`, `agent`, `todo_write`, `present`, and `load_skill`, plus `create_goal`, `get_goal`, `update_goal`, and `task_shell_wait` so goal and background-shell controls are available without discovery. The agent calls `create_goal` when a request is a durable objective; the host never infers a goal from wording, and the contract must not tell the model otherwise. Approval, sandbox, repository law, and managed policy decide what may execute.\n- **Operate is retired.** It was Work with an orchestration contract, and that contract now lives in every session's constitution: make a goal of a durable request, keep the plan visible, fan independent work out to parallel sub-agents, and have an independent reviewer try to refute a non-trivial change. A saved `default_mode = \"operate\"` loads as Work and says so once; a Runtime API request with `mode: \"operate\"` runs as `agent` with the default posture (Accept Edits) and logs one notice per process, never an error. Agents forked from an older Operate conversation do not inherit its contract. Multi-agent work stays on `agent`, `workflow` and `/fleet` in every mode.\n\n`Act` and `/mode act` remain compatibility aliases for Work. Saved settings\nstill normalize to the internal value `agent`.\n\n### Tool availability by mode\n\n| Tool family | Plan | Work |\n|:---|:---:|:---:|\n| `read` and policy-allowed deferred research tools | yes | yes |\n| `write` and `edit` | visible names; execution denied | approval- and policy-gated |\n| `bash` | visible name; execution denied | approval- and policy-gated; delegation is preferred when parallelism or isolation helps |\n| `agent` | yes, subject to child-depth authority | yes, subject to child-depth authority |\n| Deferred native, MCP, and plugin tools | discoverable through `tool_search` when policy permits | same |\n| Paid or external-service tools | follows permission posture | follows permission posture |\n| Access outside the workspace root | explicit trusted paths only | only through trusted paths or trust mode; fleet profiles never widen it |\n\nMode changes scheduling emphasLine truncated

Approval policy,\nworkspace-aware tools, and an operating-system command wrapper are separate\ncontrols: an approval is not a sandbox, and selecting `workspace-write` does\nnot prove that the current platform has an OS wrapper available.\n\nThis document describes only behavior wired into the command execution path.\nSee [Authorization order](AUTHORIZATION_ORDER.md) for the policy layers that\nrun before execution reaches this boundary.\n\n## Platform overview\n\n| Mechanism | Platform | Selection | What Codewhale reports |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| Seatbelt (`sandbox-exec`) | macOS | Automatic when the runtime probe succeeds | `macos-seatbelt` |\n| Bubblewrap (`/usr/bin/bwrap`) | Linux | Default when installed and a wrapped probe run succeeds; `prefer_bwrap = false` opts out | `linux-bwrap` |\n| No OS wrapper | Linux without usable bwrap, or opted out | `prefer_bwrap = false`, or bwrap absent/unusable | `none` |\n| No OS wrapper | Windows | Current implementation | `none` |\n| OpenSandbox-compatible service | Any supported host | `sandbox_backend = \"opensandbox\"` | External execution path |\n\nThe repository also contains a future Windows helper contract. It is not\nwired into child-command launch, so Codewhale does not advertise it as an\nactive sandbox. Source-only sandbox code is not evidence that a command was\nrestricted.\n\n## macOS: Seatbelt\n\nCodewhale probes `/usr/bin/sandbox-exec` by running a minimal profile. When the\nprobe succeeds and the selected `SandboxPolicy` requests a sandbox, the child\ncommand is wrapped with a generated Seatbelt profile.\n\nThe profile can provide:\n\n- broad filesystem reads;\n- writes limited by the selected policy, including the workspace and specific\n  runtime/cache paths needed by supported tools;\n- network access only when the policy enables it. A `read-only` policy with\n  network (the agent `read_only: true` shell mode) gets outbound IPv4 and the\n  system DNS resolver only. IPv6 and the host's own addresses, loopback\n  included, are denied, except the port of a local proxy named in\n  `HTTP_PROXY`, `HTTPS_PROXY` or `ALL_PROXY`, and other local sockets stay\n  denied.\n\nIf the probe fails or `sandbox-exec` is unavailable, Codewhale reports no OS\nsandbox and launches the command without a Seatbelt wrapper. It does not set a\nSeatbelt marker on that fallback.\n\n## Linux: default bubblewrap\n\nLinux command sandboxing is on by default whenever bubblewrap works. Set the\ntop-level configuration key to opt out:\n\n```toml\nprefer_bwrap = false\n```\n\nCodewhale selects bubblewrap only when `/usr/bin/bwrap` is a regular\nexecutable file AND a wrapped probe run proves it can create its namespaces\non this host — the exec bit alone lies where user namespaces are restricted\n(e.g. Ubuntu 24.04 with `kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns`),\nwhere every wrapped command would fail rather than run unsandboxed. The\nwrapper derives its mounts and network namespace from the resolved\n`SandboxPolicy`:\n\n```text\n/usr/bin/bwrap \\\n  --unshare-all \\\n  [--share-net] \\\n  --ro-bind / / \\\n  --dev /dev \\\n  --proc /proc \\\n  --tmpfs /tmp \\\n  [--dev-bind <device-root> <device-root> ...] \\\n  --bind <writable-root> <writable-root> ... \\\n  --ro-bind <protected-descendant> <protected-descendant> ... \\\n  [--ro-bind <extra-ro-root> <extra-ro-root> ...] \\\n  --chdir <cwd> \\\n  -- <program> <args>\n```\n\nThe sandbox always gets a private `/dev` (fresh device nodes, so `>/dev/null`\nworks), a private `/proc`, and a tmpfs `/tmp` (#5410). A `workspace-write`\npolicy then binds the host `/tmp` (and `TMPDIR`) over that tmpfs unless it\nexcludes them, so by default a sandboxed command shares the host's `/tmp`,\nwritable, with the usual sticky-bit rules. Two optional top-level\nconfig keys extend the mounts: `bwrap_ro_roots` (extra host paths bind-mounted\nread-only, applied last so they can narrow a policy-writable path) and\n`bwrap_dev_roots` (host character/block device nodes bind-mounted read-write;\ndirectories are never honored). Missing paths are skipped silently.\n\nThat gives the child a read-only root view. For `workspace-write`, every safe,\nexisting policy root is mounted read-write: the working directory, configured\nadditional roots, `/tmp` and `TMPDIR` unless excluded, and verified Git\nworktree metadata roots. Existing `.codewhale` and `.deepseek` descendants are\nremounted read-only after their writable parent. Missing paths, non-directory\npaths, and `/` are not promoted to writable mounts.\n\nFor `read-only`, there are no writable binds, so the working directory remains\ninside the read-only root view. `--unshare-all` isolates the network namespace\nby default. Codewhale adds `--share-net` only when the policy's\n`network_access` is true. The agent `read_only: true` sheLine truncated

Variable expansion is rejected so a\nrepository cannot substitute an ambient secret into a credential value. Use\n`config.toml`, CLI flags, or values exported by the launching shell for those\nexplicit control-plane settings. `.env` is read from a stable regular-file\nhandle, is capped at 1 MiB, and symbolic links, reparse points, and multiply\nlinked files are rejected.\n\n## Reading and checking configuration from the CLI\n\n`codewhale config get <key>` reads scalar keys, whole tables such as `tools`,\nand nested paths such as `tools.user_input_timeout_seconds`. Displayed tables\nand nested values apply the same recursive credential redaction as `config dump`.\n\n`config set` supports its named scalar keys and the provider, route, and\nnotification commands. It refuses a key that nothing reads and suggests the\nnearest real key (`config set calm_mod on` names `calm_mode`). A settings.toml\nkey such as `calm_mode` or `tool_collapse` is validated and written to the\nuser-global settings.toml, not config.toml; `config get` reads it back from\nthere even when an old config.toml copy (which nothing reads) is still present,\nand names that copy so you can `config unset` it. Settings keys have no project\nscope, so `--project` refuses them. A config.toml key is checked against the\ntype its reader expects and stored as a TOML boolean or number where the\nreader needs one (`yolo = true`, `max_subagents = 4`); `reasoning_effort`\naccepts the same aliases as `/effort` (#6563). Other dotted writes fail before\nmodifying the file and name the TOML table to edit. For example, set a tools\ntimeout in the file as:\n\n```toml\n[tools]\nuser_input_timeout_seconds = 0\n```\n\n`codewhale config doctor` checks credential presence and endpoint shape, and\nwarns about each config.toml root key that nothing reads: a settings.toml key\nleft in config.toml is named as misplaced, and any other unread key gets a\ndid-you-mean.

Notice version `6`\ndescribes this policy; displaying it is not recorded as human acceptance.\nMissing an older acceptance record does not turn a fresh installation off.\nExisting explicit opt-outs remain off across upgrades, and unreadable privacy\nstate fails closed. Environment and CLI kill switches still take precedence.\n\nRead the disclosure with `codewhale config telemetry`. Turn usage off in\n`/settings` or run `codewhale config set telemetry false`. Turning it back on\nin Settings or with `codewhale config set telemetry true` updates the existing\ndurable preference and privacy records for new sessions. The compatibility\ncommand `codewhale config telemetry --accept-notice 5` remains available, but\nis not required for a fresh installation. Collection never includes work content or credentials.\n\nThe PostHog sink is optional and inert until the ingest operator explicitly\nconfigures a project token and approved regional host, and records staging\nproof that the actual egress path does not forward the original client IP.\nSource readiness does not establish a deployment, an activated processor,\nan egress receipt, or a retention setting.\n\nCodewhale does not collect conversations, code, prompts, files, file/repo/branch\nnames, model content, or credentials.

+          "content": "# Codewhale User Guide\n\nThis guide is for your first hour with Codewhale. It explains the main\nworkflow, the important safety controls, and where to go next when you need a\ncomplete reference.\n\nCodewhale has deeper reference documents for installation, configuration,\nproviders, modes, keybindings, tools, and operations. Use this page as a guided\nwalkthrough, then follow the \"Next\" links when you need every option.\n\n## 1. Welcome to Codewhale\n\nCodewhale is a terminal coding agent. You run it from a workspace, give it a\ntask, and it can use structured tools to inspect files, run commands, edit\ncode, and report back with evidence.\n\nThe important difference from a normal chat model is that Codewhale is built\naround a harness:\n\n- It keeps the active workspace and session visible.\n- It routes each turn through explicit modes and approval rules.\n- It shows tool calls in the transcript instead of hiding the work.\n- It can preserve sessions, fork conversations, and continue later.\n- It can run sub-agents for focused background work.\n\nYou can use Codewhale for small questions:\n\n```text\nExplain the authentication flow in this repository.\n```\n\nYou can also use it for multi-step work:\n\n```text\nFind the failing validation path, propose a fix, and wait for my approval\nbefore editing files.\n```\n\nFor a new repository, start conservatively. Ask Codewhale to explore and plan\nbefore asking it to change files. That gives you a reviewable path and makes it\neasier to catch wrong assumptions early.\n\nNext: [ARCHITECTURE.md](ARCHITECTURE.md) explains the internal harness and\nruntime model.\n\n## 2. First Launch\n\nFor a new macOS or Linux installation, use the official GitHub release.\nThe installer verifies the release checksums and provides the same runtime\nunder the `codewhale` and `codew` command names:\n\n```bash\ncurl -fsSL https://codewhale.net/install.sh | sh\n```\n\nWindows users should choose the matching installer or archive from\n[GitHub Releases](https://github.com/codewhale-hq/CodeWhale/releases/latest).\nFor an existing direct install, use `codewhale update --check`, then\n`codewhale update`. npm and Cargo remain secondary packaging routes; Cargo\nalso supports source builds where a compatible prebuilt is unavailable.\nFor occupied directories, package-managed installs, and PATH setup, follow\n[the installation and migration guide](INSTALL.md#recommended-official-github-releases).\nAndroid/Termux uses its own [preview archive or source-build path](INSTALL.md#android--termux-arm64).\n\nDocker is also available when you want an isolated runtime. The published\nimage is currently 0.10.0; to test current `main`, [build it from source](DOCKER.md#building-locally).\n\n```bash\ndocker volume create codewhale-home\ndocker run --rm -it \\\n  -e DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=\"$DEEPSEEK_API_KEY\" \\\n  -v codewhale-home:/home/codewhale/.codewhale \\\n  -v \"$PWD:/workspace\" \\\n  -w /workspace \\\n  ghcr.io/hmbown/codewhale:latest\n```\n\nOnce the install directory is on PATH, launch Codewhale from the repository or\ndirectory you want it to work in:\n\n```bash\ncodewhale\n```\n\nFor the default GitHub installer destination, you can use\n`\"$HOME/.local/bin/codewhale\"` until that directory is on PATH.\n\nOn first launch, Codewhale opens the composer, even with no key or route.\nWith no key or route, workspace trust is asked once a provider is connected;\notherwise only when the folder requires a decision. A provider is asked for\nwhen you send your first message: the message stays in the box while you sign\nin or use your own key, and a local model is offered only when a local Ollama\nserver answers. The provider step also has an explicit offline route.\n\nEverything optional stays available after that. Use `/setup` for the\nprogressive setup and repair guide, `/settings` for the full typed editor, and\n`/constitution` when you want your own constitution on top of the bundled one.\nThe localized telemetry choice appears only after the workspace is ready and\ndoes not block the composer.\n\nDeepSeek is the default provider. If you want to configure its key before or\nafter the first launch, the most direct setup path is:\n\n```bash\ncodewhale auth set --provider deepseek\n```\n\nYou can also provide a key through the environment:\n\n```bash\nexport DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=\"your-key\"\ncodewhale\n```\n\nNew Codewhale config is stored under `~/.codewhale/config.toml`. Legacy\n`~/.deepseek/config.toml` files are still supported for users migrating from\nthe old name.\n\nUse `/constitution` to review or change standing guidance. After setup, run a\ndoctor check:\n\n```bash\ncodewhale doctor\n```\n\nUse the JSON form when you need a machine-readable report for an issue:\n\n```bash\ncodewhale doctor --json\n```\n\nBoth forms are offline by default. They report structural configuration and\nliteral unknown/not-probed credential states without loading workspace `.env`\ncredentials, opeLine truncated

You give\nit a task (\"fix the failing test\", \"add a CLI flag\"). It reads your repository,\nedits files and runs commands. In the default **Ask** posture it applies file\nedits inside the workspace immediately (and shows you the diff), but asks before\nrunning shell commands, so commit or stash anything you care about first. It\nworks with many model providers. **DeepSeek** is the default.\n\nThe command is `codewhale`. `codew` is a shorter alias for the same program.\n\nThe installation paths were first checked with **v0.10.0** (released 2026-09-22) on a\nfresh **Ubuntu 24.04 x86_64** machine. The dated\n[install receipts](https://github.com/codewhale-hq/Codewhale/blob/37ecdfcc49bc68a9b0d058b97c3946e62c34bd31/docs/install-report/v0.10.0-2026-09-23/RECEIPTS.md) record the commands and output checked at that time. Steps that\ncould not be run on that machine are marked **(untested on this VM: reason)**.\nmacOS, Windows and Android are out of scope, apart from a few notes. A second\npass re-ran the installer, manual-download, archive and npm paths, the no-key\nchecks and zsh completion on **macOS 26.1 (Apple silicon)**; see\n[macOS notes](#macos-notes). Steps that need a model call were not re-run\nthere.\n\nInstall commands that use `latest` resolve to the latest **published** GitHub\nRelease or package. Between releases, `main` may already describe the next\nversion (for example a v0.10.2 source candidate before its tag). A\nprebuilt candidate is available through the official installer only after its\ntag, checksums and release assets exist. Contributors can build `main` now.\n\n## No account needed\n\nCodewhale needs no account. Keys you save with `/provider` or\n`codewhale auth set` stay on your machine; see\n[API keys and providers](#8-api-keys-and-providers). New Codewhale accounts\nare not open, so this guide does not cover account key storage.\n\n## Test and contribute to current source\n\n`latest` selects the latest published release. To test unreleased repairs,\nbuild canonical GitHub `main`, or CNB `main` after verifying its commit matches.\nThe source version number alone does not establish a published package.\n\n```bash\ngit clone --branch main https://github.com/codewhale-hq/CodeWhale.git\ncd CodeWhale\ncargo build --release --locked -p codewhale-cli\ntarget/release/codewhale --version\n```\n\nSee the Cargo section for build prerequisites; use the repository's stable Rust\nselection (declared minimum 1.89). Windows uses `target/release/codewhale.exe`\nand needs MSVC. A development build is separate from a signed release package.\nFor mainland-China downloads and source validation, see [CNB mirror](CNB_MIRROR.md).\nThe [Tencent Lighthouse bootstrap](../scripts/tencent-lighthouse/README.md) is\nbilingual. An npm registry mirror serves the wrapper; native binary downloads\nstill need an available release asset source.\n\n---\n\n## 60-second quickstart (Linux or macOS)\n\n```bash\n# 1. Install. Downloads two checksum-verified binaries into ~/.local/bin (no sudo).\ncurl -fsSL https://codewhale.net/install.sh | sh\n\n# 2. Make sure ~/.local/bin is on your PATH, now and in future terminals.\necho 'export PATH=\"$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH\"' >> ~/.bashrc    # zsh: use ~/.zshrc\nexport PATH=\"$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH\"\ncodewhale --version          # -> codewhale 0.10.0 (1be1a703b975)\n\n# 3. Give it a DeepSeek API key (from https://platform.deepseek.com/api_keys).\ncodewhale auth set --provider deepseek    # prompts for the key; nothing is echoed\ncodewhale auth status --provider deepseek # \"active source: secret store\"\n\n# 4. Run your first task inside a git repository.\ncd ~/your-project\ncodewhale\n```\n\nIn the TUI, type something concrete:\n\n```text\ncreate a Python file primes.py that prints the first 10 primes, run it, and show me the output\n```\n\nCodewhale writes the file, shows you a diff, then asks **APPROVAL: bash\npython3 primes.py – Do you want to proceed?** Press `y` to allow it once. It\nruns the command and reports the output. Press `Ctrl-D` (with an empty input\nbox) to quit. It prints the command to resume the session later.\n\n> **If nothing happens after you send your first message,** you have no key\n> configured. v0.10.0 doesn't warn you in that case. Press **F3**.

A workflow adds ordering, result\nhandoffs, gates and a progress view. The active mode and permission posture\nstill control what each step may execute.\n\nBefore assigning steps, query `agent(action=\"roster\")` for the saved Fleet\nmodels and roles. A plan child can select a listed model with `model`, or use\nthe saved `role`/`profile` assignment. An Exact Fleet fixes each member's route.\n\n## TUI Modes\n\nPress `Tab` to complete composer menus or cycle through the visible modes\nwhen the composer is empty: **Plan → Work → Operate → Plan**. `Tab` never sends\nor queues composer text; use `Enter` to send or queue it.\nPress `Shift+Tab` to cycle permission posture (Ask → Auto-Review → Full Access).\nEvery change of effective permission writes a `Permissions changed to …` line\nin the transcript.\nPress `Ctrl+T` to cycle reasoning effort.\nRun `/mode` to open the mode picker, or switch directly with `/mode work`,\n`/mode plan`, or `/mode operate`.\n\n- **Plan**: design-first prompting. The stable primitive names remain familiar, but the runtime centrally refuses file mutation and shell execution. Read-only inspection and policy-allowed research, including deferred Web search/fetch, remain available. When a Plan turn successfully finishes a nonempty response, including a prose-only plan, the TUI asks how to continue: Work (Ask), Work (Auto-Review), or keep planning. Work sends the exact approved response as a normal follow-up and preserves that turn's existing To-dos, or adds one pending plan item without replacing unrelated work.\n- **Work** (internally `agent`): ordinary multi-step execution. The first-turn toolbox includes `read`, `write`, `edit`, `file_search`, `bash`, `agent`, `workflow`, `todo_write`, and `load_skill`, plus `create_goal`, `get_goal`, `update_goal`, and `task_shell_wait` so goal and background-shell controls are available without discovery. The agent calls `create_goal` when a request is a durable objective; the host never infers a goal from wording, and the contract must not tell the model otherwise. Approval, sandbox, repository law, and managed policy decide what may execute.\n- **Operate**: Work at full strength, the \"ultra\" mode. Same tools and authority as Work; the difference is how they are used. Each substantive request becomes a goal (`create_goal`), the plan stays visible (`todo_write`), multi-part work runs through `workflow` and parallel `agent` workers, non-trivial changes get an independent reviewer before they are called done, long commands keep running in the background, and recurring or watch-type work is offered as an `automation` (created after approval). It keeps going until the goal is verified, blocked on you, or paused.\n\n`Act` and `/mode act` remain compatibility aliases for Work. Saved settings\nstill normalize to the internal value `agent`.\n\n### Tool availability by mode\n\n| Tool family | Plan | Work | Operate |\n|:---|:---:|:---:|:---:|\n| `read` and policy-allowed deferred research tools | yes | yes | yes |\n| `write` and `edit` | visible names; execution denied | approval- and policy-gated | same as Work |\n| `bash` | visible name; execution denied | approval- and policy-gated | same as Work; delegation is preferred when parallelism or isolation helps |\n| `agent` | yes, subject to child-depth authority | yes, subject to child-depth authority | yes, subject to child-depth authority |\n| Deferred native, MCP, and plugin tools | discoverable through `tool_search` when policy permits | same | same |\n| Paid or external-service tools | follows permission posture | follows permission posture | follows permission posture |\n| Access outside the workspace root | explicit trusted paths only | only through trusted paths or trust mode | same trusted-path/trust policy as Work; fleet profiles never widen it |\n\nOperate changes scheduling emphasis, not authority. It neither adds a\nmode-specific tool denial nor bypasses the active approval, sandbox, shell,\nask-rule, repository-law, or managed-policy boundary. Plan remains the\nmode-specific execution boundary for shell and write-capable tools; that\nauthority difference does not require a different primitive vocabulary.\n\n### Operate loop (one screen)\n\n```text\nUseLine truncated

Approval policy,\nworkspace-aware tools, and an operating-system command wrapper are separate\ncontrols: an approval is not a sandbox, and selecting `workspace-write` does\nnot prove that the current platform has an OS wrapper available.\n\nThis document describes only behavior wired into the command execution path.\nSee [Authorization order](AUTHORIZATION_ORDER.md) for the policy layers that\nrun before execution reaches this boundary.\n\n## Platform overview\n\n| Mechanism | Platform | Selection | What Codewhale reports |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| Seatbelt (`sandbox-exec`) | macOS | Automatic when the runtime probe succeeds | `macos-seatbelt` |\n| Bubblewrap (`/usr/bin/bwrap`) | Linux | Default when installed and a wrapped probe run succeeds; `prefer_bwrap = false` opts out | `linux-bwrap` |\n| No OS wrapper | Linux without usable bwrap, or opted out | `prefer_bwrap = false`, or bwrap absent/unusable | `none` |\n| No OS wrapper | Windows | Current implementation | `none` |\n| OpenSandbox-compatible service | Any supported host | `sandbox_backend = \"opensandbox\"` | External execution path |\n\nThe repository contains a seccomp implementation module plus a future Windows\nhelper contract. They are not wired into child-command launch, so Codewhale\ndoes not advertise them as active sandboxes. Source-only sandbox code is not\nevidence that a command was restricted.\n\n## macOS: Seatbelt\n\nCodewhale probes `/usr/bin/sandbox-exec` by running a minimal profile. When the\nprobe succeeds and the selected `SandboxPolicy` requests a sandbox, the child\ncommand is wrapped with a generated Seatbelt profile.\n\nThe profile can provide:\n\n- broad filesystem reads;\n- writes limited by the selected policy, including the workspace and specific\n  runtime/cache paths needed by supported tools;\n- network access only when the policy enables it. A `read-only` policy with\n  network (the agent `read_only: true` shell mode) gets outbound IPv4 and the\n  system DNS resolver only. IPv6 and the host's own addresses, loopback\n  included, are denied, except the port of a local proxy named in\n  `HTTP_PROXY`, `HTTPS_PROXY` or `ALL_PROXY`, and other local sockets stay\n  denied.\n\nIf the probe fails or `sandbox-exec` is unavailable, Codewhale reports no OS\nsandbox and launches the command without a Seatbelt wrapper. It does not set a\nSeatbelt marker on that fallback.\n\n## Linux: default bubblewrap\n\nLinux command sandboxing is on by default whenever bubblewrap works. Set the\ntop-level configuration key to opt out:\n\n```toml\nprefer_bwrap = false\n```\n\nCodewhale selects bubblewrap only when `/usr/bin/bwrap` is a regular\nexecutable file AND a wrapped probe run proves it can create its namespaces\non this host — the exec bit alone lies where user namespaces are restricted\n(e.g. Ubuntu 24.04 with `kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns`),\nwhere every wrapped command would fail rather than run unsandboxed. The\nwrapper derives its mounts and network namespace from the resolved\n`SandboxPolicy`:\n\n```text\n/usr/bin/bwrap \\\n  --unshare-all \\\n  [--share-net] \\\n  --ro-bind / / \\\n  --dev /dev \\\n  --proc /proc \\\n  --tmpfs /tmp \\\n  [--dev-bind <device-root> <device-root> ...] \\\n  --bind <writable-root> <writable-root> ... \\\n  --ro-bind <protected-descendant> <protected-descendant> ... \\\n  [--ro-bind <extra-ro-root> <extra-ro-root> ...] \\\n  --chdir <cwd> \\\n  -- <program> <args>\n```\n\nThe sandbox always gets a private `/dev` (fresh device nodes, so `>/dev/null`\nworks), a private `/proc`, and a tmpfs `/tmp` (#5410). Two optional top-level\nconfig keys extend the mounts: `bwrap_ro_roots` (extra host paths bind-mounted\nread-only, applied last so they can narrow a policy-writable path) and\n`bwrap_dev_roots` (host character/block device nodes bind-mounted read-write;\ndirectories are never honored). Missing paths are skipped silently.\n\nThat gives the child a read-only root view. For `workspace-write`, every safe,\nexisting policy root is mounted read-write: the working directory, configured\nadditional roots, `/tmp` and `TMPDIR` unless excluded, and verified Git\nworktree metadata roots. Existing `.codewhale` and `.deepseek` descendants are\nremounted read-only after their writable parent. Missing paths, non-directory\npaths, and `/` are not promoted to writable mounts.\n\nFor `read-only`, there are no writable binds, so the working directory remains\ninside the read-only root view. `--unshare-all` isolates the network namespace\nby default. Codewhale adds `--share-net` only when the policy's\n`network_access` is true. The agent `read_only: true` shell mode turns it on\nonly in Full Access (see [Subagents](SUBAGENTS.md)); it then shares the host\nnetwork namespace, including loopback and abstract unix sockets, like a\nnetworLine truncated

Bindings are grouped by **context** — the focus or modal state they fire in. A binding listed under \"Composer\" only takes effect when the composer is focused; one under \"Transcript\" only when the transcript has focus; and so on.\n\nGlobal key chords are not yet user-configurable — tracked for a future release (#436, #437). Hotbar slot actions are configurable with `[[hotbar]]` and `/hotbar`; the Hotbar activation chord remains `Alt-1` through `Alt-8`.\n\n## Global (any context)\n\n| Chord                | Action                                                        |\n|----------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|\n| `/help`, `F1` or `Ctrl-/` | Toggle the help overlay. `/help` is what the chrome advertises: it is the one route every terminal delivers, where `F1` is eaten by tmux and some emulators and `Ctrl-/` encoding varies |\n| `F2`                 | Toggle the typed Settings editor                              |\n| `F3`                 | Open the provider/model picker (same as `/provider`)          |\n| `Ctrl-K`             | Open the command palette (slash-command finder)                |\n| `Ctrl-C`             | Cancel current turn / dismiss modal / arm-then-confirm quit    |\n| `Ctrl-B`             | Release the current shell wait so the turn can continue; foreground commands move into `/jobs`, and background tasks keep running.
