fix(daemon): keep binary files byte-identical in rig bundles

Bundle create read every vendored agent-package file, and the declared culture, docs and startup files, as UTF-8 text and wrote it back as UTF-8. Any byte sequence that is not valid UTF-8 became U+FFFD, and the integrity manifest was hashed from the changed copy, so inspect and install verified the corrupted bytes as intact. Copy those files as bytes: the pod assembler reads them with readFileBuffer and writes the same bytes, and the install-side skills and workflow-spec routers copy with fs.copyFileSync. Rewriting rig.yaml and agent.yaml import refs stays a text operation. Refs #245

-## [0.6.4]
-
-0.6.4 is the code tested and published as the 0.6.4-rc.1 release candidate,
-now the normal release. Only its version and these notes changed. It was cut
-from main at `afde814f` and has changed since only by the repairs below, the web
-UI default, and browser access with its docs page. The changes since 0.6.3:
-
-### Two changes you might notice
-
- Turn the web UI and its terminal connection off by default. Turn it on with
-  `rig config set ui.enabled true`, then stop and start the daemon; while it is
-  off, opening the page and `rig ui open` show those steps
-  ([#301](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/301) via
-  [#303](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/303)).
- Check which address and which web page a daemon request comes from. The CLI,
-  the TUI, agents, the queue, Slack, and other OpenRig hosts that reach this
-  machine by its IP address, its own hostname or its own Tailscale name are
-  unaffected. A custom DNS name, an `/etc/hosts` alias or a reverse-proxy domain
-  needs `OPENRIG_ALLOWED_HOSTS`; a local app or development server calling the
-  daemon from a browser on another port needs `OPENRIG_ALLOWED_ORIGINS`. Each
-  refusal names the setting, and both need a daemon restart. See
-  [Browser access and allowed addresses](docs/reference/browser-access.md)
-  ([#358](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/358),
-  [#372](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/372)).
-
-### Repairs made after the candidate was cut
-
- Keep binary files byte-identical in rig bundles
-  ([#245](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/245),
-  [#257](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/257)).
- Send local commands to the daemon's recorded endpoint, so a daemon started
-  with `rig daemon start --port` is the one they reach
-  ([#246](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/246),
-  [#266](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/266)).
- Relaunch a rig's only seat after `rig seat launch --fresh --stop`, instead of
-  refusing once stopping it had ended the tmux server
-  ([#265](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/265),
-  [#267](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/267)).
- Give Claude's capability check five seconds instead of one when a managed
-  Claude launch with an explicit permission mode reads `claude --help`. Answers
-  within the longer budget can succeed; a timeout can still refuse the launch.
-  Thanks to [@m3ac-AllbrittenJ](https://github.com/m3ac-AllbrittenJ) for
-  [#260](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/260)
-  ([#271](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/271)).
- Launch seats after an upgrade removes the old version: fresh launches and
-  restores use the running version's built-in startup files. Thanks to
-  [@m3ac-AllbrittenJ](https://github.com/m3ac-AllbrittenJ) for
-  [#261](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/261)
-  ([#269](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/269)).
- Accept ordinary messages again when a managed Claude seat resumes in auto mode,
-  once OpenRig confirms the same Claude process is running in its pane; a resume
-  it can't confirm asks for attention instead of starting a fresh conversation
-  ([#287](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/287), toward
-  [#273](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/273)).
- Recognize a native Claude install behind the managed shell wrapper, including
-  versioned install paths. When the runtime can't be observed, ordinary delivery
-  goes ahead with a warning; a pane that is plainly an idle shell, or the wrong
-  recipient, is still refused
-  ([#310](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/310), a follow-up to
-  [#197](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/197), reported by
-  [@dmelo](https://github.com/dmelo)).
- Keep an uncertain launch when restoring an older Claude seat: if the resume
-  check can't tell whether the conversation came back, the restore keeps the new
-  session and asks for attention instead of closing it
-  ([#345](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/345),
-  [#346](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/346)).
- Replace proof files without writing through links: `rig proof add --replace`
-  now swaps in a new file, so a symlinked or hard-linked artifact no longer
-  overwrites the other path's contents
-  ([#307](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/307)).
- Store a registered person's Slack message with its complete text (anything
-  past 1,800 characters was lost before), and log a storage error while the
-  gateway retries undelivered events instead of letting it escape. Thanks to
-  [@rudycelekli](https://github.com/rudycelekli) for
-  [#361](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/361) and
-  [#375](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/375) and their fixes
-  ([#404](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/404)).
-
-### Messaging and delivery
-
- Distinguish an unverified runtime from a stopped agent when delivering
-  ([#240](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/240)).
- Finish the printable-separator migration for tmux client and cursor reads
-  ([#179](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/179)), on top of a
-  shell-free argv execution seam for tmux
-  ([#167](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/167)).
- Observe native processes independently of the inherited locale
-  ([#239](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/239)).
- Release SSE subscriptions aborted during replay
-  ([#233](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/233)).
- Keep CLI request deadlines active through response bodies, and report a body
-  that fails after headers as an unknown outcome
-  ([#201](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/201)).
-
-### Queue, seats and rigs
-
- Keep a blocked row's park timer through a seat handover, and retire a periodic
-  park timer when its row is rerouted
-  ([#242](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/242)). Thanks to
-  [@korallis](https://github.com/korallis), who found and documented this in
-  [korallis/agent-stack#61](https://github.com/korallis/agent-stack/pull/61).
- Derive terminal pickup for closed queue items
-  ([#176](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/176)).
- Preserve discovery claims during async rescans
-  ([#237](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/237)).
- Report an unknown seat launch outcome on timeout
-  ([#191](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/191)).
- Accept runtime guards for existing nodes when attaching
-  ([#228](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/228)).
- Give kernel Claude seats the shared activity hooks
-  ([#178](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/178)).
- Preserve an unset native Claude config selection
-  ([#225](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/225)).
- Replace a stopped same-name rig generation on YAML import by archiving it,
-  with its ID and unarchive command shown
-  ([#196](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/196)).
-
-### Files, transfer and context
-
- Decode SSH and rsync output across UTF-8 chunks
-  ([#230](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/230)), and keep UTF-8
-  intact across herdr socket chunks
-  ([#241](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/241)).
- Preserve local rsync directory content operands
-  ([#231](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/231)).
- Preserve executable mode during atomic file edits
-  ([#235](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/235)).
- Project file-shaped entries instead of failing them on ENOTDIR
-  ([#185](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/185)).
- Clamp oversized suffix ranges to asset bounds
-  ([#234](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/234)).
- Keep fenced example headings out of context addresses
-  ([#236](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/236)).
- Disclose stale environment service receipts in `rig env status`
-  ([#232](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/232)).
-
-### Platform and setup
-
- Provider-aware Codex readiness for non-OpenAI providers
-  ([#222](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/222)).
- Leave user config content untouched when stripping Codex activity hooks
-  ([#186](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/186)).
- Skip `ps` for daemon process liveness on Windows
-  ([#173](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/173)).
- Make module URLs and transcript containment portable
-  ([#168](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/168)).
- Keep `ps` rows whose command name contains spaces
-  ([#82](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/82)).
-
-### Repository
-
- The onboarding text that new seats read now covers both ways a build goes wrong,
-  and the skills router says a project, rig or machine may add its own skills
-  ([#303](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/303)).
- Skip release-surface tag diffs when old tags are absent
-  ([#152](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/152)), and ask security
-  and integration PRs for practical scenarios
-  ([#224](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/224)).

 ## [0.6.3]

 - Recognize running managed Claude Code seats behind OpenRig's shell wrappers
@@ -1,45 +0,0 @@
-
-## Browser access and allowed addresses
-
-The OpenRig daemon answers its API only when a request is addressed to this machine and, if it
-comes from a web page, only when that page is the OpenRig UI or a page you allowed.
-
-### What works with no setup
-
- The CLI, the TUI and agents on this machine, addressing the daemon by `localhost` or an IP
-  address.
- Other OpenRig hosts and clients that reach this daemon by its IP address, its own hostname, or
-  its own Tailscale name (for example `my-machine.your-tailnet.ts.net`, or the short `my-machine`).
-  The daemon learns its own Tailscale name automatically from Tailscale on this machine.
- The web UI, when it is turned on (`rig config set ui.enabled true`, then restart the daemon) and
-  opened at the daemon's own address and port.
-
-### When you see a refusal
-
-The daemon answers `403` with a sentence that says what to do. There are two kinds:
-
- **The address is not recognized** (`untrusted_host`). You reached the daemon by a name it does not
-  know as its own, such as a custom DNS name, an alias in `/etc/hosts`, or a reverse proxy domain.
-  Use `localhost`, an IP address or the machine's own name instead, or list the name you use:
-  `OPENRIG_ALLOWED_HOSTS=rig.example.com` in the daemon's environment, then restart the daemon.
-  A client that presents the daemon's configured bearer token is not refused for its address
-  (it still needs whatever access each route requires).
- **The web page is not allowed** (`browser_origin_refused`). A browser page that is not the
-  OpenRig UI at the daemon's own address called the API. This includes another local app or
-  development server on a different port. To allow a page, list its exact origin:
-  `OPENRIG_ALLOWED_ORIGINS=http://localhost:5173` in the daemon's environment, then restart the
-  daemon. A bearer token does not override this.
-
-`OPENRIG_ALLOWED_HOSTS` lists names you use to reach the daemon. `OPENRIG_ALLOWED_ORIGINS` lists
-web pages allowed to call it. They are separate: a UI served through your own domain usually needs
-both. Pages on other origins cannot read the refusal; the message is for you, the CLI and agents.
-
-### Limits
-
- If you rename the machine in Tailscale, the daemon keeps accepting its previous name until it
-  restarts or until it next looks its name up after seeing an unrecognized one.
- If the daemon cannot reach Tailscale's resolver, its Tailscale name is refused until a later
-  lookup succeeds. `localhost` and IP addresses keep working.
- This protects against unknown web pages and unknown names. It is not complete browser isolation:
-  a page on another site can still cause a simple read request to an address the daemon accepts,
-  although it cannot read the answer. Keep the daemon on loopback or your tailnet.

-# OpenRig 0.6.4
-
-0.6.4 is the code tested and published as the 0.6.4-rc.1 release candidate, now the normal release. Only its version and these notes changed.
-
-```
-npm install -g @openrig/cli
-```
-
-It was cut from main at `afde814f`, and since then it has changed only by the bounded changes described here: the repairs below, the web UI default, and browser access with its docs page. If something breaks for you, please open an issue.
-
-## Two changes you might notice
-
-**The web UI is off by default.** The daemon no longer serves the web UI's pages or its terminal connection unless you turn it on with `rig config set ui.enabled true` and then stop and start the daemon. While it's off, opening the page shows those steps, and `rig ui open` prints them. The web UI is in maintenance mode; the CLI and the TUI are the supported ways to use OpenRig.
-
-**The daemon checks which address and which web page a request comes from.** Nothing changes for the CLI, the TUI, agents, the queue, Slack, or other OpenRig hosts that reach this machine by its IP address, its own hostname or its own Tailscale name. Two cases now need one setting:
-
- If you reach the daemon by a custom DNS name, an `/etc/hosts` alias or a reverse-proxy domain, add that name to `OPENRIG_ALLOWED_HOSTS`.
- If a local app or development server on another port calls the daemon from a browser, add its origin to `OPENRIG_ALLOWED_ORIGINS`.
-
-Each refusal says which setting to add, and both need a daemon restart. The details are in [Browser access and allowed addresses](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/blob/v0.6.4/docs/reference/browser-access.md) ([#358](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/358), [#372](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/372)).
-
-## Repairs made after the candidate was cut
-
-These repairs went into the candidate after it was cut.
-
- **Bundles keep binary files intact.** `rig bundle create` re-encoded binary files in agent packages ([#245](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/245), [#257](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/257)).
- **Local commands reach the daemon you started.** A daemon started with `rig daemon start --port` is now the one other commands talk to ([#246](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/246), [#266](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/266)).
- **A rig's only seat can be relaunched fresh.** `rig seat launch --fresh --stop` on a single-seat rig no longer refuses after stopping the seat ended the tmux server ([#265](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/265), [#267](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/267)).
- **More time for Claude's capability check.** A managed Claude launch with an explicit permission mode first reads `claude --help`. That check now gets five seconds instead of one. Answers arriving within the longer budget can succeed; a timeout can still refuse the launch. Slow answers were reported when several seats started at once ([#260](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/260), [#271](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/271)).
- **Seats launch after an upgrade removes the old version.** Fresh launches and restores use the running version's built-in startup files instead of failing on paths into the removed install ([#261](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/261), [#269](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/269)).
- **Claude seats take messages after a full down and up.** When a managed Claude seat resumes in auto mode, it accepts ordinary messages again once OpenRig confirms the same Claude process is running in its pane. A resume it can't confirm asks for your attention instead of starting a fresh conversation ([#287](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/287), toward [#273](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/273)).
- **Natively installed Claude is recognized.** OpenRig recognizes a native Claude install behind its managed shell wrapper, including versioned install paths. When it can't observe the runtime, ordinary delivery goes ahead with a warning; a pane that is plainly an idle shell, or the wrong recipient, is still refused ([#310](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/310), a follow-up to [#197](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/197)).
- **Restoring an older Claude seat keeps an uncertain launch.** If the resume check can't tell whether the conversation came back, the restore keeps the new session and asks for attention instead of closing it ([#345](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/345), [#346](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/346)).
- **Replacing proof files doesn't write through links.** `rig proof add --replace` now swaps in a new file, so a symlinked or hard-linked artifact no longer overwrites the other path's contents ([#307](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/307)).
- **Slack keeps long messages, and retry errors stay contained.** A message from a registered person is stored with its complete text; before, anything past 1,800 characters was lost. A storage error while the gateway retries undelivered events is now logged instead of escaping ([#361](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/361), [#375](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/375), [#404](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/404)).
-
-## Everything else since 0.6.3
-
-**Messaging and delivery.** An unverified runtime is reported separately from a stopped agent ([#240](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/240)). tmux reads use printable separators and a shell-free command path ([#179](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/179), [#167](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/167)). Native process checks no longer depend on your locale ([#239](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/239)). Event subscriptions cancelled during replay are released ([#233](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/233)). CLI request deadlines cover the whole response, and a body that fails after its headers is reported as an unknown outcome ([#201](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/201)).
-
-**Queue, seats and rigs.** A blocked row keeps its park timer through a seat handover, and a rerouted row's periodic timer is retired ([#242](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/242)). Closed queue items show the right pickup state ([#176](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/176)). Discovery claims survive background rescans ([#237](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/237)). A seat launch that times out reports an unknown outcome ([#191](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/191)). Attaching accepts runtime guards for existing nodes ([#228](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/228)). Kernel Claude seats get the shared activity hooks ([#178](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/178)). An unset native Claude config selection stays unset ([#225](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/225)). Importing YAML over a stopped rig with the same name archives the old one and shows its ID and unarchive command ([#196](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/196)).
-
-**Files, transfer and context.** SSH, rsync and Herdr output keeps UTF-8 intact across chunks ([#230](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/230), [#241](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/241)). Local rsync directory operands are preserved ([#231](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/231)). Atomic file edits keep the executable bit ([#235](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/235)). File-shaped entries are projected instead of failing ([#185](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/185)). Oversized suffix ranges are clamped ([#234](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/234)). Headings inside fenced examples aren't treated as context addresses ([#236](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/236)). `rig env status` says when a service receipt is stale ([#232](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/232)).
-
-**Platform and setup.** Codex readiness works with providers other than OpenAI ([#222](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/222)). Removing Codex activity hooks leaves the rest of your config untouched ([#186](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/186)). Daemon liveness on Windows no longer uses `ps` ([#173](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/173)). Module URLs and transcript paths are portable ([#168](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/168)). `ps` rows whose command name contains spaces are kept ([#82](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/82)).
-
-**Onboarding and repository.** The onboarding text that new seats read now covers both ways a build goes wrong, and the skills router says a project, rig or machine may add its own skills ([#303](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/303)). Release checks skip tag diffs when old tags are absent ([#152](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/152)), and security and integration PRs are asked for practical scenarios ([#224](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/pull/224)).
-
-Fixes merged to main after this candidate was cut, including many community contributions, aren't in this release. They'll ship in the next release, with their credits.
-
-## How it was tested
-
-Most installed and real-agent results below come from earlier builds of this candidate. The final package received the package-content/stock check and the affected Slack component checks; unchanged-path evidence was carried forward through checked package deltas.
-
- **Required checks:** the integrated release changes passed their recorded CI runs. The release checks cover build and packaging, types, repository checks, package test suites and an installed-package scenario.
- **Scripted checks without real agents:** installed copies of candidate builds ran the repository's scripted checks. Three known failures remain: two cases in plugin usage reporting ([#251](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/251), fixed on main for the next release), and `rig proof add --file` dropping a leading byte order mark from the stored file ([#250](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/250)).
- **A fresh first-time install** ran Claude-only, Codex-only and mixed teams through useful work, with seats handing work and review results to each other, then a warm resume and a graceful reboot. The tester approved the providers' ordinary permission prompts as a first-time user would.
- **Real Claude Code agents on a test server:** after a full down and up, a Claude seat took and answered an ordinary message, carried on with its own queue work, and kept its conversation through a daemon restart.
- **The final package's Slack checks:** tests of the installed Slack components kept long inbound messages whole. In both retry-fault cases, the gateway logged the error, kept running and delivered the event once on the next automatic retry. These used synthetic connections on Linux with the package's existing dependencies. They aren't a live Slack test or a fault trial of the whole daemon.
-
-**Tested environments**, from the run receipts. Unlisted versions are not established by this summary.
-
-| Run | Platform | Versions |
-|---|---|---|
-| Fresh install | macOS on Apple silicon | Claude Code 2.1.286, then 2.1.287 after the warm resume (the launcher version changed between phases); Codex 0.159.3; Node 24.21.0 |
-| Test server | Ubuntu Linux, x86-64 | Claude Code 2.1.220, Codex 0.145.0 |
-| Final Slack checks | Linux, x86-64 | Node 22.22.1; no providers |
-
-The tested release-candidate package's SHA-256 is `5344a48a747629f71d4427ce52d24e6e1034e9097b4d5d34ec125d5396fa66b6`; 0.6.4 differs from it only in its version and release notes.
-
-## Known limits
-
- **A restore can report a problem with a seat that works.** In the test-server run, `rig up` after a full down exited with an error, reporting that the Claude seat needed attention, while that seat went on to take and answer an ordinary message. `rig restore-check` also reported a failure for that rig ([#273](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/273)).
- **Codex under its default sandbox.** In the test-server run, Codex 0.145.0 under its default workspace-write sandbox could not reach the local daemon, blocking its queue work ([#275](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/275)). That run did not prove cross-seat queue handoffs; its successful queue continuation was Claude working its own row.
- **After a reboot** the daemon doesn't come back on its own. Start it with `rig daemon start`, then bring your rig back with `rig up <name>`.
- **Stopping the daemon** can report a timeout while closing connections ([#166](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig/issues/166)).
- **Setup's optional cmux step** can report an error.
- **Browser access** protects against unknown web pages and names. It isn't complete browser isolation, so keep the daemon on loopback or your tailnet. The browser-access page lists its other limits.
- **Windows** wasn't tested.
