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).

claude_bottle/backend/smolmachines/sidecar_bundle.py — primitives
for the per-bottle bridge + bundle container with pinned IP:
- bundle_network_name(slug) / bundle_container_name(slug)
- create_bundle_network(name, subnet, gateway)
- remove_bundle_network(name)
- start_bundle(BundleLaunchSpec, env=)
- stop_bundle(slug)
`BundleLaunchSpec` carries the launch-time fields (network +
subnet + gateway + bundle_ip + daemons_csv + environment +
volumes). Wiring it up from the inner Plans (PipelockProxyPlan,
EgressPlan, GitGatePlan, SupervisePlan) is chunk 2d's job; this
module is the docker-argv surface only.
Pinning the bundle IP via `docker run --ip <bundle-ip>` is what
makes smolvm's TSI allowlist (`<bundle-ip>/32`) safe to compute
at prepare time — without pinning, we'd have to inspect the
assigned IP after start and feed it back into the Smolfile.
Idempotent semantics where it matters: `create_bundle_network`
treats "already exists" as success, `remove_bundle_network` +
`stop_bundle` treat "no such ..." as success. Other failures
die / warn depending on whether the launch flow can recover.
Tests:
- 15 unit cases (mocked subprocess.run): argv shape for create
/ remove / start / stop, idempotent paths, host-env
inheritance to docker run subprocess.
- 1 integration case (real docker daemon, gated on docker
available + not GITEA_ACTIONS): end-to-end bringup of an
empty-daemons bundle on a 192.168.211.0/24 bridge, confirms
the container lands at the pinned IP. Skipped if the
claude-bottle-sidecars:latest image isn't built (operator
hasn't run a docker bottle yet).
546 unit tests passing. Real-docker bundle bringup green
locally.
Launch wiring + provisioning + PRD 0022 acceptance probes
land in chunk 2d.
