A new ref made the pre-receive hook scan the full ancestry
(`log_opts="$new"`), so historical test-fixture findings rejected every
new-branch push (#106). Scope it to `$new --not --all` — only commits
new to the gate, which (since the bare repo is populated solely by
upstream mirror-fetch and gitleaks-gated pushes) loses no coverage on
what a push actually brings to the upstream. Also add BatchMode=yes +
ConnectTimeout=10 to both the forward and access-hook ssh so an
unreachable upstream fails fast instead of hanging.

Review feedback on #102: a manifest that can't be read should raise an
exception, not call die() (a SystemExit). That SystemExit was the whole
reason the dashboard had to special-case Die.
manifest.py now raises ManifestError (a plain Exception) for every
validation failure. The CLI dispatcher catches it and prints+exits 1
(same UX as before); the dashboard catches it with a normal
`except ManifestError` and degrades to a status-line warning. Manifest
tests assert on ManifestError + its message.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The dashboard runs under curses.wrapper and cmd_dashboard only caught
KeyboardInterrupt, so failures vanished:
- die() prints to stderr, but under curses that lands on the alternate
screen and is wiped on exit, so config errors gave no reason.
- Die is a SystemExit, so the new-agent flow's `except Exception` never
caught config errors; they crashed the TUI.
- the startup manifest probe was unguarded.
Now: Die carries its message (+ log.error()); cmd_dashboard re-surfaces
a Die's reason once the terminal is restored and writes any other
crash's traceback to ~/.bot-bottle/logs/dashboard-crash.log; the startup
probe and the new-agent flow degrade a bad config to a status-line
warning instead of crashing.

Agents may declare git.user (name/email); it overlays the referenced
bottle's git.user per-field at Manifest.bottle_for (agent wins on
non-empty), mirroring the extends: merge. git.remotes is rejected on
agents — it carries credentials and host trust and stays bottle-only.
The overlay lives at bottle_for, the single chokepoint both backends
use, so the docker/smolmachines git provisioners are unchanged. Adds
Manifest.git_identity_summary with per-field (agent)/(bottle)
provenance, printed in both preflights and `info`.

Add an optional `extends: <bottle-name>` field to bottle
frontmatter. Two-pass load:
1. Collect raw frontmatter for every bottle file.
2. Recursively resolve each name into a merged Bottle via
`_resolve_one_bottle` + `_merge_bottles`.
Merge rules (per PRD 0025):
- env: dict merge, child wins on key collision
- git: full replace if child declares `git:`
- git_user: per-field overlay (child's non-empty fields win)
- egress: full replace if child declares `egress:`
- supervise: full replace if child declares `supervise:`
List-valued fields full-replace because partial merge is
ambiguous (ordering matters, name collisions ambiguous); env is
dict-merge because dict-keyed override is the natural shape.
git_user overlays per-field so a parent can declare just the
name and a child can add just the email.
Cycles / self-extends / missing-parent / non-string `extends:`
all die at parse with a pointer that includes the chain (cycles)
or the available names (missing parent). Resolution is cached
per-name so a diamond reference graph doesn't reparse the same
parent N times.
Both load paths threaded:
- `_load_bottles_from_dir` (md files) — collect raws, then
resolve.
- `Manifest.from_json_obj` (JSON / test fixtures) — same.
Tests (24, in `test_manifest_extends.py`):
- Leaf without extends parses unchanged
- Child inherits parent unchanged when child only declares
`extends:`
- env: disjoint union, collision (child wins), child-omits
- git: replace, omit, explicit-empty-clears-parent
- egress: same shape (replace, inherit)
- git_user: parent-only, child-overrides-both, partial fields
- 3-step chain (grandparent → parent → child)
- Errors: missing parent, self-extends, 2-node cycle, 3-node
cycle, non-string extends

Mirror the docker backend's third provisioning subcase in
`backend/smolmachines/provision/git.py`:
_provision_git_user(plan, target)
Runs `smolvm machine exec --name <M> -e HOME=/home/node -e
USER=node -- runuser -u node -- git config --global user.<X>
<value>` for each git_user field. No-op when
`git_user.is_empty()`.
`runuser -u node --` switches the UID without invoking a login
shell (matching the existing `Bottle.exec_claude` pattern).
HOME / USER are forced via `smolvm -e` because bare runuser
inherits root's HOME=/root, which would put --global in
/root/.gitconfig instead of /home/node/.gitconfig (where the
existing `_provision_git_gate_config` writes).
4 unit tests in test_smolmachines_provision.TestProvisionGitUser:
no-op, both-set (asserts runuser prefix + HOME/USER env),
name-only, email-only. 661 unit tests pass.

Add a third provisioning subcase to
`backend/docker/provision/git.py`:
_provision_git_user(plan, target)
Runs `docker exec -u node <container> git config --global
user.{name,email} <value>` for each field the bottle's
`git_user` declares. No-op when `git_user.is_empty()`.
`-u node` so `--global` lands in /home/node/.gitconfig (matching
the existing `_provision_git_gate_config` write location, so
agent-side `git` reads both configs from the same dotfile).
Name and email apply independently — a bottle declaring only
name runs just the user.name line, etc.
4 unit tests in `test_docker_provision_git_user.py`: no-op,
both-set, name-only, email-only. 657 unit tests pass.

Per-bottle `git config --global user.name` / `user.email` pair
so the agent's commits inside the bottle land with a known
identity rather than the agent image's default (no user, or
whatever the image dropped in).
Schema:
git_user:
name: "Eric Bauerfeld"
email: "eric+claude@dideric.is"
Either field can be set independently — name-only / email-only
configs are valid and apply just the field that's set. An
explicit `git_user:` block with both fields empty dies at parse
time rather than silently no-op'ing; an omitted block is the
no-op path (default GitUser is empty, provisioner skips).
Parse-time validation:
- Unknown sub-keys die (e.g., typo of `username`).
- Non-string name/email dies.
- Both-empty dies (half-finished edit hint).
11 unit tests in `test_manifest_git_user.py`; 653 unit tests pass.

Pipelock was 403-blocking legitimate egress cred-injected
traffic with 'blocked: request header contains secret'. The
chain is `agent → egress → pipelock → internet`: egress injects
`Authorization: Bearer <token>` for routes with an `auth_scheme`,
then forwards upstream to pipelock. Pipelock has `scan_env:
true` + `scan_headers: true` + `header_mode: all`, and the
bundle supervisor spawned every daemon (egress, pipelock,
git-gate, supervise) inheriting the bundle container's full env
— including the `EGRESS_TOKEN_<n>` slots set via
`docker run -e`. So pipelock had the token value egress
injected sitting in its own env, matched it in the request
headers, and blocked.
The agent itself runs in a different machine and never sees
`EGRESS_TOKEN_*`, so stripping these from non-egress daemons'
env loses no DLP coverage — pipelock can't catch the exfil of
a value the agent doesn't have in the first place.
New helper `_env_for_daemon(name, base_env)` returns the
unchanged base for `egress` and a copy with `EGRESS_TOKEN_*`
filtered for everyone else. `_spawn` now passes the scoped env
to `subprocess.Popen`. Prefix-based filter (not exact-match) so
future egress-only env slots don't have to update this code.
Tests:
- `TestEnvForDaemon`: egress gets full env, pipelock /
git-gate / supervise lose `EGRESS_TOKEN_0` + `EGRESS_TOKEN_1`
but keep `PATH`, `EGRESS_UPSTREAM_PROXY`, `SUPERVISE_PORT`.
- Independent-dict invariant locked so callers can't
accidentally mutate the supervisor's env.
642 unit tests pass.

The b9853ae stdin=DEVNULL fix wasn't sufficient. End-to-end
testing against a live VM in tmux revealed a second crash path:
libkrun spits "load \`config.json\`: parse error: trailing
garbage { \"ociVersion\": \"1.0.2\", ... }" and the main exec
dies (rc=1 or SIGKILL/rc=137, depending on race scheduling).
Root cause: each `smolvm machine exec` writes a per-invocation
OCI config.json to the same smolvm state dir during its bringup.
The wrapper's startup sync() fires within 1ms of Popen-ing the
main exec — both invocations write config.json concurrently,
libkrun loads one mid-write, and gets garbage. Trivial inner
commands (`sh -c "echo hi"`) finished before the overlap
mattered, masking the race in earlier tests. claude's slower
startup hits the race every time, and only inside tmux because
the outside-tmux foreground-handoff path takes a different
bringup sequence that happens to dodge the window.
Fix: schedule the initial sync on a 2-second `threading.Timer`
instead of calling it synchronously. By 2s the main exec is
past its bringup window, so the side-channel's config.json
write doesn't collide. Daemon thread so the timer doesn't
block exit when the child finishes quickly.
Trade-off: the in-VM PTY uses smolvm's default size for the
first ~2s, then snaps to the host pane size when the timer
fires. Verified end-to-end against a live VM in tmux: claude
renders at the default size during bringup, then redraws at
full pane width once the deferred sync lands. Operator-driven
resizes (SIGWINCH) still bridge in real time via the
already-installed signal handler.
Also drop the diagnostic log added in 9c83ea6 — we have the
fix.
Regression test:
`TestStartupSyncDeferred.test_main_schedules_timer_does_not_
call_sync_synchronously` mocks Popen + Timer + _push_size and
asserts `main()` schedules the timer with the documented
delay constant and never invokes _push_size synchronously.
Catches a "let's just inline the sync() call" regression
immediately.
638 unit tests pass.

Inside tmux the dashboard's smolmachines launch crashed within
~100ms of the wrapper Popen-ing the main smolvm exec child —
sometimes with rc=137 (SIGKILL), sometimes with smolvm
spitting a runc-style "load `config.json`: cannot parse the
data: parse error: trailing garbage" and exiting 1. The same
wrapper ran fine outside tmux. Diagnostic logs showed the
SIGKILL landed ~100ms after the wrapper kicked off its
initial `sync()` (which fires the side-channel smolvm exec).
Root cause: the side-channel `subprocess.run([smolvm, machine,
exec, --, sh, -c, ...])` did not specify `stdin=`, so it
inherited the wrapper's stdin — the tmux pane PTY. The main
smolvm child (the agent session) also had that PTY as stdin.
Two concurrent smolvm processes sharing the PTY's
foreground-process-group / input plumbing caused smolvm to
abort one of them. iTerm's PTY plumbing apparently tolerated
this; tmux's didn't.
Fix is one line in `_push_size`: `stdin=subprocess.DEVNULL`.
The side-channel never needs stdin — it runs a fire-and-forget
`stty` and exits. Verified end-to-end: pre-fix the wrapper
crashed under `tmux respawn-pane` against a live VM; post-fix
the same invocation completes cleanly.
Also drop the diagnostic log added in 37bd11b — we have the
fix.
Regression test:
`test_side_channel_uses_devnull_stdin` locks the
`stdin=DEVNULL` invariant so a future "let's simplify the
subprocess.run kwargs" refactor surfaces this immediately.
637 unit tests pass.

The dashboard's launch path crashed inside tmux but worked
outside it. Root cause: `python -m
claude_bottle.backend.smolmachines.pty_resize` needs the
`claude_bottle` package on `sys.path`, which by default comes
from cwd. The outside-tmux path is `subprocess.run(...)` —
inherits the dashboard process's cwd (the repo root, where
`claude_bottle/` lives), so the import resolves. The
inside-tmux path is `tmux split-window / respawn-pane <argv>`,
and tmux opens the new pane with the pane's OWN cwd, not the
cwd of the process invoking split-window. If the operator
started their tmux pane anywhere outside the repo (typical:
`$HOME`), the wrapper hit `ModuleNotFoundError: No module
named 'claude_bottle'` and tmux closed the pane immediately.
Sidestep the cwd dependence by invoking the wrapper as
`python <absolute-path-to-pty_resize.py>` instead of
`python -m <dotted-path>`. The wrapper has no
`claude_bottle.*` imports — it's stdlib-only — so it runs as
a standalone script anywhere on the filesystem. The absolute
path comes from `pty_resize.__file__` at module-load time.
Tests:
- `test_pty_resize_wrapper_prefix`: updated to assert the
absolute-script-path shape rather than the `-m <dotted>`
shape.
- `test_no_wrapper_when_tty_false`: the substring check now
uses `any("pty_resize" in a for a in argv)` instead of
string-joining (so the absolute path's "pty_resize.py"
filename match still catches a regression).
636 unit tests pass.

`smolvm 0.8.0 machine exec -t` allocates an in-VM PTY but never
forwards the host terminal's window size — the PTY starts at
`0 0` and host resizes (tmux pane resize, terminal window
resize) go unnoticed, so the claude TUI inside a smolmachines
bottle renders for whatever tiny box it last saw and ignores
operator resizes. `docker exec -it` propagates window-size
changes automatically; smolvm doesn't.
Workaround: a small Python wrapper
(`backend/smolmachines/pty_resize.py`) that interposes between
the operator's terminal and `smolvm machine exec`. It spawns
smolvm as a child, traps host SIGWINCH, and on every resize
(plus once at startup) runs a side-channel
`smolvm machine exec --name <M> -- sh -c 'for f in /dev/pts/*;
do stty -F $f cols X rows Y; done'`. The kernel delivers
SIGWINCH to the in-VM foreground process group when the slave
PTY's size changes, so claude picks up the new dimensions
without extra signalling.
`SmolmachinesBottle.claude_argv` prepends
`[sys.executable, -m, claude_bottle.backend.smolmachines.
pty_resize, <machine>, --, ...]` to the existing smolvm argv
in TTY mode. Non-TTY mode (provisioning shell-outs) skips the
wrapper — no PTY to resize.
The wrapper survives the dashboard's
`_build_resume_argv_with_fallback` shell-wrap because the
split-at-`claude` token still finds the right position — the
wrapper's prefix wraps the entire smolvm-exec framing.
Tests:
- `test_smolmachines_pty_resize.py` (new): argv parsing, the
side-channel command shape (cols/rows / for-loop over
/dev/pts/*), and `_read_winsize`'s fallback across
stdin/stdout/stderr including the smolvm-allocated-PTY-
reports-`0 0` ironic case.
- `test_smolmachines_bottle.py`: updated TTY-mode assertions
to unwrap the pty_resize prefix; added `TestClaudeArgvNoTTY`
to lock the non-TTY skip.
636 unit tests pass.
Removable when smolvm grows native SIGWINCH forwarding.

`./cli.py cleanup` previously called only the env-var-selected
backend's `prepare_cleanup` / `cleanup` — so a leftover smolvm
machine + bundle container + bundle network from a crashed
smolmachines bottle would survive a default `docker`-mode cleanup
indefinitely.
Smolmachines now has a real `cleanup` module (alongside
`enumerate.py` from issue #77) that walks:
- smolvm machines named `claude-bottle-*` (via
`smolvm machine ls --json`)
- bundle containers `claude-bottle-sidecars-*`
- bundle networks `claude-bottle-bundle-*`
Cleanup runs stop+delete on the machines, force-rm on the
containers, network rm on the networks. Each step is best-effort
so a failed rm doesn't block the rest.
`cli.py cleanup` walks every backend in `known_backend_names()`
and runs each backend's `cleanup` after a single y/N prompt that
shows a combined plan.
State dirs (`~/.claude-bottle/state/<slug>/`) are shared layout
with the docker backend, which still owns the orphan-state-dir
bucket. It now consults `enumerate_active_bottles()` for the
cross-backend live identity set so a running smolmachines
bottle's state dir isn't reaped during a cleanup.
Tests: smolmachines cleanup (prepare + cleanup ordering + failure
handling); cross-backend orphan protection on the docker
state-dir check; CLI cmd_cleanup walks both backends, short-
circuits on all-empty, aborts on N. 617 unit tests pass.
End-to-end verified on this host:
$ smolvm machine ls --json | jq '.[].name'
"claude-bottle-researcher-m3hxd"
$ ./cli.py cleanup

smolvm machine: claude-bottle-researcher-m3hxd

Launching a smolmachines agent from the dashboard inside tmux
crashed with
AttributeError: 'SmolmachinesBottle' object has no attribute
'claude_docker_argv'
because the tmux pane-respawn path called
`bottle.claude_docker_argv(...)` directly — a method that only
existed on DockerBottle. The foreground-handoff path (curses
endwin → subprocess.run → restore) doesn't hit it; it goes
through `bottle.exec_claude` which is on the ABC.
- Move the argv builder onto the `Bottle` ABC as
`claude_argv(argv, *, tty=True) -> list[str]`. Both backends
implement it; both `exec_claude` impls collapse to
`subprocess.run(self.claude_argv(argv, tty=tty), check=False)`.
- DockerBottle: rename `claude_docker_argv` → `claude_argv`,
body unchanged.
- SmolmachinesBottle: extract the argv-building from
`exec_claude` into `claude_argv`; the new method returns the
full `smolvm machine exec --name … -- runuser -u node --
claude …` argv. The `runuser` switch lives on the
exec-framing prefix so the dashboard's
`_build_resume_argv_with_fallback` split-at-"claude" trick
keeps the UID switch when wrapping the claude tail in
`sh -c "… --continue || …"`.
- Dashboard: drop the docker-specific wording — local + helper
arg names `docker_argv` → `claude_argv`; docstrings on
`_build_resume_argv_with_fallback`, `_build_split_pane_argv`,
`_build_respawn_pane_argv` now say "backend-exec argv". The
shell-fallback wrap is unchanged; the existing logic works
for smolmachines because `claude` is still the marker token.
Tests:
- `tests/unit/test_smolmachines_bottle.py` (new): locks down
the smolmachines argv shape — prompt-file flag injection,
guest-env `-e K=V` forwarding, TTY toggle, runuser-precedes-
claude invariant.
- `test_docker_bottle.py`: TestClaudeDockerArgv →
TestClaudeArgv; method renames follow.
- `test_dashboard_active_agents.py`: docstring follow.
615 unit tests pass.

When starting a smolmachines agent from the dashboard the
docker-build output rendered on top of the curses preflight
modal — the build was kicked off before the operator had
confirmed launch. The docker backend's `prepare` is pure
resolution (no docker calls); smolmachines was inconsistent
because `prepare` called `_ensure_smolmachine` which ran
`docker build` → `docker save` → `crane push` → `smolvm pack
create`, several seconds of stderr noise rendered before the
y/N prompt.
Move the pipeline:
- `_ensure_smolmachine` (+ `_SMOLMACHINE_CACHE_DIR` + `_REPO_DIR`
+ the local-registry / smolvm imports) moves from
`backend/smolmachines/prepare.py` to
`backend/smolmachines/launch.py`. Called right before
`_smolvm.machine_create` so the resulting `.smolmachine`
sidecar path lands as a local in `launch`, not on the plan.
- `SmolmachinesBottlePlan.agent_from_path: Path` becomes
`agent_image_ref: str`. `prepare` stashes only the docker tag
(`$CLAUDE_BOTTLE_IMAGE` || `claude-bottle:latest`); `launch`
resolves it into the artifact at bringup.
This puts smolmachines on the same prepare-vs-launch boundary
the docker backend uses: the preflight summary in the dashboard
prints, the operator confirms, then `launch` runs — and its
stderr is routed via `_route_op_to_right_pane` (in tmux) or via
`curses.endwin` (foreground handoff) so the build output lands
cleanly.
Tests:
- `tests/unit/test_smolmachines_prepare_image.py` →
`tests/unit/test_smolmachines_launch_image.py`, updated to
import `_ensure_smolmachine` from `launch` rather than
`prepare`.
- `test_smolmachines_provision.py`: plan fixture switches
`agent_from_path` → `agent_image_ref`.
593 unit tests pass.

Addresses PR #78 review feedback:
- New `has_backend(name)` on the backend package + abstract
`BottleBackend.is_available()` on each concrete subclass.
Replaces inline `shutil.which("docker") is None` checks in
docker/cleanup.py:178 and smolmachines/enumerate.py:73.
Docker → `shutil.which("docker") is not None`; smolmachines
→ `smolvm.is_available()`. Cross-backend `enumerate_active_
agents()` skips backends whose `is_available()` is False so a
docker-only host doesn't fail when iterating past
smolmachines (and vice versa).
- Move docker `enumerate_active` + parser helpers out of
cleanup.py into a new `backend/docker/enumerate.py`, mirroring
the smolmachines/enumerate.py layout. cleanup.py is now
purely about prepare_cleanup / cleanup; the active-listing
concern owns its own file.
- Drop the `ActiveAgent = ActiveBottle` alias in dashboard.py.
The canonical name is `ActiveAgent` (the thing running inside
a bottle is always called "agent" in this codebase; the bottle
is the container). Renamed `enumerate_active_bottles` →
`enumerate_active_agents` to match.
Tests:
- `test_backend_selection.TestEnumerateActiveAgents
.test_skips_unavailable_backends` locks down the
`is_available()`-gated iteration.
- New `TestHasBackend` covers `has_backend("docker")` consulting
the backend's `is_available`, and unknown-name → False.
- Existing tests follow the rename; the docker-availability-
side-effect test in `test_docker_enumerate_active` moves up
to the cross-backend layer (where the gate lives now).
607 unit tests pass.

CLI and dashboard now share one cross-backend abstraction for
listing + launching bottles, so adding a backend (docker /
smolmachines) lights up in both places without separate wiring.
Backend abstraction:
- New `ActiveBottle` dataclass (`backend_name`, `slug`,
`agent_name`, `started_at`, `services`) replaces the
docker-specific `ActiveAgent`. Same field surface for the
existing dashboard consumers; `ActiveAgent` becomes a typed
alias for source-compat.
- New `BottleBackend.enumerate_active() -> Sequence[ActiveBottle]`
replaces the old `list_active() -> None` (which printed and
returned nothing). Docker implements it via the existing
compose query; smolmachines implements it via `smolvm machine
ls --json` cross-referenced with each bundle container's
`CLAUDE_BOTTLE_SIDECAR_DAEMONS` env (`backend/smolmachines/
enumerate.py`).
- New `enumerate_active_bottles()` and `known_backend_names()`
module-level helpers fold every backend into one call.
- `get_bottle_backend(name=None)` takes an optional explicit
name (precedence: arg > $CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND > "docker").
CLI:
- `./cli.py list active` enumerates every backend, prints
tab-separated `<backend>\t<slug>\t<agent>\t<services>`. The
smolmachines bottle the user was looking for now shows up.
- `./cli.py start` grows `--backend=<docker|smolmachines>`
(choices pulled live from `known_backend_names()`). Threaded
through `prepare_with_preflight(backend_name=...)` so the
resume path picks up the flag too.
Dashboard:
- Active agents pane lists both backends (the row formatter now
prefixes `[docker]` / `[smolmachines]`).
- New-agent flow inserts a backend picker modal between agent
pick and preflight (`_backend_picker_modal`). Short-circuits
when only one backend is registered.
- `discover_active_agents()` collapses to
`enumerate_active_bottles()`; `_parse_services_by_project` and
`_query_services_by_project` move to
`backend/docker/cleanup.py` where the docker enumerator owns
them.
Tests: parser + enumerate-active tests relocated to
`test_docker_enumerate_active.py`. New
`test_backend_selection.py` covers `get_bottle_backend`,
`known_backend_names`, `enumerate_active_bottles`. New
`test_cli_start_backend_flag.py` covers `--backend`'s argparse
shape + the explicit-over-env precedence.
605 unit tests pass.

Earlier commit framed this PR as "infrastructure landed, TSI
enforcement blocked on upstream smolvm 0.8.0." Found a clean
workaround that lets us enforce now.
Smolvm persists each machine's config (including
`allowed_cidrs`) as a JSON BLOB in
`~/Library/Application Support/smolvm/server/smolvm.db`,
`vms.data`. `machine create --allow-cidr X/32` silently writes
`allowed_cidrs: null` to that row when combined with `--from`,
but smolvm reads the row at `machine start` — so patching the
row between create and start sets the allowlist for real.
New `loopback_alias.force_allowlist(machine_name, cidrs)` opens
the SQLite DB, JSON-decodes the row, sets `allowed_cidrs`, and
writes back as BLOB (Text type silently corrupts smolvm's
later reads). launch.py calls it immediately after
`machine_create` and before `machine_start`.
Verified end-to-end on macOS / Docker Desktop:
VM allowlist after start: ["127.0.0.16/32"]
VM → 127.0.0.1:3000 → BLOCKED (Permission denied)
VM → 8.8.8.8:53 → BLOCKED (Permission denied)
VM → 127.0.0.16:<bundle> → CONNECTED
The DB-patch hack is correct only because smolvm reads
`allowed_cidrs` from the row at start time (not derived in-
process). When upstream honors `--allow-cidr` with `--from`,
the call becomes redundant — drop the call and the workaround
is gone.
Tests: 4 new for `force_allowlist` (BLOB round-trip; Linux
no-op; missing DB; missing row). Total 593 unit tests pass.
README + PRD updated to reflect the fix landed (no longer
"infrastructure pending upstream"). gitea#75 can close.

PR #74's Docker-Desktop fix routed the agent through
`127.0.0.1:<random>` loopback forwards, but TSI filters by IP
only — so the allowlist `127.0.0.1/32` let the agent VM reach
**any** host service on macOS loopback (postgres, dev servers,
other bottles' published ports, mDNSResponder, ...). Real
downgrade vs the docker backend's `--internal` network.
Resolution: per-bottle loopback alias.
- New `loopback_alias` module manages a pool of
`127.0.0.16` .. `127.0.0.31` on `lo0`. macOS only routes
`127.0.0.1` by default; the extras need `sudo ifconfig lo0
alias`. `ensure_pool()` lazily adds the missing entries via
one sudo prompt on first launch per reboot — aliases persist
on `lo0` until reboot, so subsequent launches skip the
prompt entirely.
- `allocate(slug)` picks the lowest-numbered unused alias by
inspecting running bundle containers' port-binding HostIps.
No on-disk reservation — docker is the source of truth.
- Bundle bringup binds published ports to the allocated alias
(`docker run -p <alias>::<port>`) instead of `127.0.0.1`.
- TSI allowlist becomes the alias's /32 — narrows reachability
to this bottle's bundle only.
- Linux native daemons share the host's network namespace;
`127.0.0.0/8` works without aliases, so the module no-ops on
non-Darwin and returns `127.0.0.1` from `allocate`.

provision_supervise dispatched `claude mcp add --scope user`
through `smolvm machine_exec`, which runs as root by default.
The MCP entry got written to root's ~/.claude.json — but the
agent's claude reads /home/node/.claude.json, so `/mcp` showed
"No MCP servers configured" inside the bottle.
Wrap the exec in `runuser -u node -- env HOME=/home/node ...`
so the config writes to the right home. Same pattern as the
interactive exec_claude / Bottle.exec wrappers — `smolvm
machine_exec` is always root, so any command that touches user
state has to switch UID + set HOME explicitly.

Two related bugs:
1. Auth chain bypassed egress. After the Docker-Desktop port
pivot, the agent always dialed pipelock directly — meaning
egress (which holds the real OAuth token and rewrites the
Authorization header) wasn't in the request path. Bearer
placeholder reached anthropic verbatim → 401 "Invalid bearer
token". Fix: when the bottle declares egress.routes, the
agent's first hop is egress (publish egress port 9099 to host
loopback, leave pipelock bundle-internal). Without routes,
the agent dials pipelock directly. Same hop order as the
docker backend.
2. provision_ca's update-ca-certificates SIGKILLed at ~100ms
on Docker Desktop. Back-to-back `smolvm machine exec` calls
immediately after machine_start hit a VM warm-up race in
libkrun's exec channel; the second exec's child got
SIGKILL'd before producing more than the first line of
stdout. The agent's trust store never got the egress MITM
CA's hash symlink, so curl/openssl couldn't validate the
TLS chain. Fix: 1.5s sleep after machine_start (empirically
enough), plus fold provision_ca's chown + chmod +
update-ca-certificates into one `sh -c` so we only pay one
exec round trip. Bail with a clear error if update-ca-
certificates doesn't report "1 added" (failing silently was
how the original SIGKILL went unnoticed).
Net effect on Docker Desktop / macOS: claude's HTTPS_PROXY is
`http://127.0.0.1:<egress port>`, egress rewrites auth, pipelock
allowlists + DLPs, request reaches api.anthropic.com with a
real token. End-to-end verified.
Also drops the PRD-0023-chunk-3 EGRESS_LISTEN_HOST=127.0.0.1
mitigation. The original concern (agent bypassing pipelock by
dialing egress's port on the bundle IP) doesn't apply in this
topology: the agent can only reach whatever port we publish on
host loopback, and egress is the only HTTP/HTTPS chokepoint
that gets published.

Claude hung on outbound network calls under
CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND=smolmachines:
Unable to connect to API (FailedToOpenSocket)
Root cause: the PRD-0023 design pinned the bundle at a docker
bridge IP (192.168.X.2) and set the smolvm guest's TSI allowlist
to `<bundle-ip>/32`. On native Linux this works — host shares
the docker bridge's network namespace, TSI's syscall
impersonation reaches the bridge IP directly. On Docker Desktop
(macOS), the daemon runs in its own Linux VM and docker bridge
IPs aren't reachable from macOS networking, so the smolvm
guest's TSI requests die "Network is unreachable" before they
hit pipelock.
Fix: publish each agent-facing bundle daemon's port on host
loopback (-p 127.0.0.1::PORT), discover the random host-side
ports after start, and route the agent through
`127.0.0.1:<host port>` instead of the bridge IP. macOS loopback
is the surface Docker Desktop's gvproxy forwards into the
daemon's VM, so the chain (guest TSI -> macOS loopback ->
daemon VM port-forward -> bundle container) works on both
Docker Desktop and native Linux.
Concrete changes:
- BundleLaunchSpec: add `ports_to_publish` so start_bundle adds
`-p 127.0.0.1::PORT` for the agent-facing ports (pipelock
always; git-gate when upstreams declared; supervise when
enabled). Egress's port stays bundle-internal.
- sidecar_bundle.bundle_host_port(): wrap `docker port <bundle>
<container_port>/tcp` so launch can look up the random
host-side mapping after start.
- launch.py: discover the host ports, build URLs of the form
`http://127.0.0.1:<host port>` / `git://127.0.0.1:<host port>`,
stamp onto guest_env + new agent_*_url fields on the plan.
- launch.py: TSI allow_cidrs flips to `["127.0.0.1/32"]`. The
bundle IP is no longer the agent's target.
- prepare.py: stop synthesizing HTTPS_PROXY / GIT_GATE_URL /
MCP_SUPERVISE_URL at prepare time — launch owns those now
(the values depend on a port docker hasn't assigned yet).
- provision_git: gate_host from plan.agent_git_gate_host.
- provision_supervise: URL from plan.agent_supervise_url.
End-to-end verified on Docker Desktop / macOS: guest dials
pipelock through TSI, pipelock forwards to api.anthropic.com,
the API responds with 401 (i.e. it received the request).

smolvm 0.8.0 docs say `--allow-cidr` implies `--net`, but
empirically the implication only fires when no `--from` is set.
`--from PATH --allow-cidr X/32` silently produces a machine with
network: false and no routes in the guest — claude lands inside
with HTTPS_PROXY pointing at the bundle's pinned IP but every
connect fails with "Network is unreachable" / FailedToOpenSocket
in claude's UI.
Reproduce + verify:
$ smolvm machine create --from <pack> --allow-cidr X/32 nettest
$ smolvm machine ls --json | jq '.[].network' # false
$ smolvm machine create --from <pack> --net --allow-cidr X/32 nettest2
$ smolvm machine ls --json | jq '.[].network' # true
Add `--net` whenever `allow_cidrs` is non-empty. No change to the
no-allow-cidr code path. Test added to lock down both branches.

The previous fix (`host.docker.internal:<port>` for daemon-side
push) still failed:
Get "https://host.docker.internal:53958/v2/":
http: server gave HTTP response to HTTPS client
`host.docker.internal` is reachable from Docker Desktop's daemon
VM but isn't in the daemon's default insecure-registries CIDRs
(only `::1/128` and `127.0.0.0/8` are), so docker push tries
HTTPS, hits a plain-HTTP registry, and refuses. The daemon.json
fix (`"insecure-registries": ["host.docker.internal"]`) works
but is a one-time manual step in Docker Desktop's UI — not
something we can do for the user.
Sidestep the daemon push entirely:
1. docker build (as before) — local layer cache makes
no-change rebuilds cheap.
2. docker save the image to a per-digest tarball alongside the
cached `.smolmachine`.
3. Start an ephemeral registry container on a per-session
docker network, with `-p :5000` so the host can also reach
it for the pack step.
4. docker run a one-shot crane container on the SAME network,
mount the tarball, `crane push --insecure /img.tar
<registry-container>:5000/...`. Container DNS resolves the
registry on the network; `--insecure` forces plain HTTP.
5. `smolvm pack create --image localhost:<host port>/...` from
the host. smolvm's bundled crane auto-falls-back to HTTP
for localhost addresses, so no insecure-registries config
is needed on that side.
6. Tear down everything; reap the tarball (registries hold the
same bytes, no need to keep both around).
Net effect: the docker daemon never does an HTTP/HTTPS-policy
decision on our behalf. `docker push` is gone from the prepare
path; `docker save`, `docker network create`, `docker run` (for
registry + crane) replace it.
Tested end-to-end on Docker Desktop / macOS: `_ensure_smolmachine
("claude-bottle:latest")` produces a 204MB
`.smolmachine.smolmachine` artifact.
Adds:
- backend/docker/util.py:save() — thin docker save wrapper.
- local_registry.crane_push_tarball() — one-shot crane run on
the registry's network.
- CRANE_IMAGE constant pinned by digest
(gcr.io/go-containerregistry/crane@sha256:0ae17ecb...).
Removes:
- backend/docker/util.py:tag() / push() — unused without daemon
push.

`./cli.py start <agent>` under CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND=smolmachines
died at `docker push localhost:<port>/claude-bottle:<id>` with
`Get "http://localhost:<port>/v2/": context deadline exceeded`.
Cause: chunk 4c bound the ephemeral registry to `127.0.0.1::5000`
and used `localhost:<port>` as the only image-ref hostname. On
Docker Desktop the daemon runs inside its own Linux VM — its
`localhost` is the VM's loopback, not the host's, so the daemon
cannot reach a registry bound to the host's 127.0.0.1.
Fix: bind the registry to all interfaces (`-p :5000`) so it's
reachable from both sides, and yield two endpoints:
- `daemon_endpoint` — `host.docker.internal:<port>` on Docker
Desktop (daemon-side hostname for the host VM gateway),
`localhost:<port>` on a native Linux daemon that shares the
host's network namespace. Used for `docker tag` + `docker
push`.
- `host_endpoint` — always `localhost:<port>`. Used for
`smolvm pack create`, which runs as a host process.
The registry stores images by repo+tag, so a push to
`host.docker.internal:<port>/cb:<id>` and a pull from
`localhost:<port>/cb:<id>` resolve to the same blob — the
hostname in a ref is just routing.
Detection uses `docker info --format '{{.OperatingSystem}}'`,
which returns "Docker Desktop" on macOS/Windows Desktop and the
host's OS name on native daemons.
Trade-off: all-interface binding briefly publishes the registry
on every interface (~5-10s during prepare). The pushed image is
built from the public repo Dockerfile (no secrets), the port is
random, and the window is short — acceptable for v1 of a
personal dev tool.

End-to-end provisioning parity with the docker backend. After this
chunk a smolmachines bottle has a working trust store, git-gate
gitconfig, and supervise MCP registration — same shape as docker,
dispatched via `smolvm machine cp` / `smolvm machine exec` instead
of `docker cp` / `docker exec`.
Adds three new provision modules:
- ca.py: select egress vs pipelock CA (same logic as
docker), machine cp + update-ca-certificates,
log sha256 fingerprint.
- git.py: copy host .git when --cwd was passed; render
~/.gitconfig with insteadOf URLs. URL prefix is
`git://<bundle_ip>:9418/...` (no DNS in the
TSI-allowlisted guest) vs docker's
`git://git-gate/...`.
- supervise.py: `claude mcp add` via machine_exec; URL is
`http://<bundle_ip>:9100/`. Failure is logged but
non-fatal (matches docker).
Shared render: `render_git_gate_gitconfig` moves out of
backend/docker/provision/git.py into the platform-neutral
claude_bottle/git_gate.py (renamed to git_gate_render_gitconfig
for consistency with the existing git_gate_render_* helpers),
parameterized on a `gate_host` argument so both backends use the
same logic with different addresses.
Path/user fixups for the post-chunk-4c agent image (real
claude-bottle image, USER node, $HOME=/home/node):
- prompt.py default path moves from /root/... to
/home/node/.claude-bottle-prompt.txt; chown + chmod after
machine cp.
- skills.py default skills dir moves from /root/.claude/skills to
/home/node/.claude/skills; chown -R per skill.

Replaces the alpine:latest placeholder with a real claude-bottle
agent image, converted into a .smolmachine artifact via an
ephemeral local OCI registry.
Why the registry hop: smolvm pack create only accepts OCI registry
refs. Empirically it rejects docker-daemon://, oci-layout://,
docker-archive: tarballs, and every other transport tested — the
crane backend treats anything with a scheme prefix as a registry
hostname. To convert a locally-built docker image into a
.smolmachine we have to push it somewhere smolvm can pull from.
Smallest path: bring up registry:2.8.3 bound to 127.0.0.1:<random>,
docker tag + docker push into it, smolvm pack create --image
localhost:<port>/claude-bottle:<id>, tear down the registry.
The .smolmachine is cached under
~/.cache/claude-bottle/smolmachines/ keyed by the docker image ID
(first 16 hex chars of the sha256), so a Dockerfile change picks
up a new image ID and invalidates the cache. Unchanged rebuilds
skip the whole build → registry → pack pipeline.
This puts `docker build` in smolmachines prepare (the docker
backend defers it to launch). Necessary because pack_create needs
the image ID to derive the cache key, and prepare is the only
hook ahead of launch that runs once per slug.
Adds:
- claude_bottle/backend/docker/util.py: image_id / tag / push
helpers (thin docker CLI wrappers).
- claude_bottle/backend/smolmachines/local_registry.py:
ephemeral_registry() context manager; pins registry:2.8.3 by
digest, binds 127.0.0.1::5000 (loopback-only), force-removes on
exit.

Same line of cleanup as the supervise rename: the per-sidecar
container names (`claude-bottle-pipelock-<slug>`,
`claude-bottle-egress-<slug>`, `claude-bottle-git-gate-<slug>`)
were docker-network aliases pointing at the bundle, kept so legacy
URLs would keep resolving. Replaces them with short hostnames
(`pipelock`, `egress`, `git-gate`) matching the existing
`EGRESS_HOSTNAME` pattern, and inlines the bundle-loopback URL
(`http://127.0.0.1:8888`) for the in-bundle egress→pipelock hop —
matching what smolmachines already does.
Drops the three `*_container_name` functions, `pipelock_proxy_url`,
and `git_gate_host`. Their callers move to the new constants:
- `PIPELOCK_HOSTNAME = "pipelock"` (claude_bottle/pipelock.py)
- `GIT_GATE_HOSTNAME = "git-gate"` (claude_bottle/git_gate.py)
- `BUNDLE_LOCAL_PIPELOCK_URL` (backend/docker/pipelock.py)
The agent's HTTP_PROXY now reads `http://pipelock:8888` (vs the
old `http://claude-bottle-pipelock-<slug>:8888`); the gitconfig
insteadOf rewrites become `git://git-gate/<repo>.git`. The prepare-
time orphan probe is collapsed onto the bundle container name
(`claude-bottle-sidecars-<slug>`) instead of the four legacy
per-sidecar names that no backend creates anymore.
