Skill names become host/guest path segments interpolated into the
`bottle.exec` shell strings in each contrib provider's provision_skills.
They were validated only as strings, so a name with shell metacharacters
or path traversal could reach the command.
Layer two defenses:
- Primary: reject any skill name that isn't kebab-case
([a-z][a-z0-9-]*) at manifest load, reusing the convention already
enforced on bottle/agent filenames (new is_valid_entity_name helper
in manifest_schema). Fails loud and early, protecting every consumer
of the name — not just the exec call sites.
- Failsafe: shlex.quote the interpolated skills_dir / dst paths in the
claude, codex, and pi providers, so a future unvalidated field can't
inject shell metacharacters even if it bypasses the load-time check.

manifest.py imported the extends/loader resolvers, while those resolvers
needed ManifestBottle back from manifest.py — a true bidirectional cycle
papered over with in-function imports and TYPE_CHECKING guards (not clear
dependency inversion).
Extract ManifestBottle into a new leaf module manifest_bottle.py that depends
only on the other leaf modules (manifest_util/agent/egress/git/schema).
manifest.py re-exports ManifestBottle, so `from .manifest import ManifestBottle`
callers are unaffected. With the cycle gone:
- manifest_extends and manifest_loader import ManifestBottle from
manifest_bottle and their other deps from the real source modules, all at
top level (TYPE_CHECKING block removed).
- manifest.py imports the extends/loader/schema/yaml_subset/log helpers at
module top; all per-function lazy imports in the cluster are removed.
No behavior change; full unit suite green, pyright clean.

- dlp_detectors._closest_pair: replace the O(n*m) cross product with an
O(n log n) sort + O(n) two-pointer merge, and early-out once a pair
falls within the proximity threshold. The inputs are attacker-controlled
response-body matches past the body-size cap, so the quadratic form was a
latent DoS. Extract _match_gap to share the span-gap calc with the caller.
- dlp_detectors._compute_encoded_variants: back the memo with a bounded
functools.lru_cache instead of an unbounded module dict, so a long-lived
proxy seeing rotating secrets evicts rather than growing without limit.
- supervise_server: extract the duplicated routes.yaml inputSchema into
_proposal_input_schema()/_ROUTES_YAML_DESCRIPTION so the egress-allow and
egress-block tools can't drift.

The pyright "0 errors" and pylint "9.93/10" badges were static,
hand-synced shields that duplicated state the `lint` CI job already
enforces — a maintenance tax that could silently drift from reality.
Remove both badges from the README and strip the corresponding steps
(pylint/pyright runs, sed rewrites, commit-message lines, and the
`.pylintrc`/`pyrightconfig.json` path triggers) from the badge-update
workflow. Lint/type enforcement in CI is unchanged; only the published
badges go away. Coverage and core-coverage badges stay.

`ManifestIndex.load_for_agent` was a ~100-line method branching across
the eager (from_json_obj) and lazy (from disk) resolution modes, with
the git-user merge tail duplicated in both branches. Split into

Two per-request hot-path costs in the egress DLP scanner:
- `_encoded_variants` derived the full variant set (gzip + nine
encodings) for every provisioned secret on every redaction and
known-secret scan — once per host, path, header, and body. Cache it
per distinct secret; callers still get a fresh list so they can't
corrupt the shared cached tuple.
- `_find_partial_window` searched the text once per secret n-gram,
giving O(len(secret) * len(text)). Build the secret's n-gram set once
and sweep the text a single time: O(len(text)), no coverage loss.

git_gate.py (699 LOC) mixed three responsibilities. Split into:
- git_gate_render.py — pure host-side rendering: the gate constants,
GitGateUpstream, gitconfig/known-hosts rendering, and the entrypoint /
pre-receive / access-hook script builders.
- git_gate_provision.py — the gitea deploy-key lifecycle
(_provision_dynamic_key / revoke / _resolve_identity_file).
- git_gate.py — the GitGate ABC + GitGatePlan, now 169 LOC, re-exporting
all moved names (see __all__) so the 19 importers are unchanged.
Host-side only (not flat-bundled), so no sidecar import shim. The one
test that patched the internal `_provision_dynamic_key` lookup is
repointed to its new module (public API unchanged). The two new modules
are added to scripts/critical-modules.txt so the decompose doesn't move
security code out of the measured core — critical aggregate stays 95%

The unit suite could write to and flock the real ~/.bot-bottle: state,
queue, and audit dirs all derive from supervise.bot_bottle_root() ->
Path.home(). A test taking a flock on the real audit log blocks
indefinitely when a live bottle's supervise sidecar holds that lock
(observed: a `coverage run` hung at 0% CPU), and unisolated tests
otherwise pollute the developer's home dir.
Point HOME at a throwaway temp dir for the whole tests/unit package

core, currently 95% — as a README badge, distinct from the
informational global `coverage` badge.
- scripts/critical-modules.txt: single source of truth for the core
module list. scripts/coverage.sh now reads it (instead of a hardcoded
string) and update-badges.yml reads the same file, so the badge and
the `critical` report cannot drift.
- update-badges.yml: a `core coverage` step reuses the unit-coverage
data (every core module is unit-tested, so unit-only is accurate for
it) and sed-updates the new badge, like the existing ones.

The token-pattern detector had 15 near-identical test methods across
`TestScanTokenPatterns` and `TestScanTokenPatternsExtended`, each
scanning a body carrying one synthetic token and asserting the reason
names the credential type.
Collapse them into a single `_TOKEN_PATTERN_CASES` table driven by
`subTest`, so adding a new token shape is a one-line row. Each case now
also asserts block severity (previously only the AWS case did).
`TestScanTokenPatternsExtended` is removed; its rows live in the table.

explicit methods. No production code change.

The interactive multiselect loop nested key dispatch up to six indent
levels deep — the worst offender being the space-bar toggle
(while > if focus > elif key > if filtered > if/else membership) and
the long order-mode elif chain inside the focus branch.
Extract two behaviour-identical helpers:
- `_toggle_membership(items, item)` collapses the add/remove if/else,
pulling the space branch back to four levels.
- `_handle_order_key(key, selected, order_cursor)` moves the entire
order-focus dispatch out of the loop, returning the new cursor.
No control-flow or key-binding changes; the loop's early returns and
focus toggling are untouched. (git_gate.py's deep-looking lines named
in the issue are multiline call-argument continuations already under
four levels of control nesting, so no change was warranted there.)

`egress_addon_core.py` mixed the per-route `dlp:` block parser

constants) in with the request-time scan/decision flow. Move that
config-parsing layer into a new stdlib-only `egress_dlp_config.py` as
`parse_dlp_block`, so the decision path in the core module reads
top-to-bottom without scrolling past config plumbing.
The constants and parser are re-exported from `egress_addon_core`
(and listed in `__all__`) so existing `from egress_addon_core import
ON_MATCH_*` / `OUTBOUND_DETECTOR_NAMES` callers are unchanged. The new

malformed-input and fallback branches:
- path helpers (bot_bottle_root, queue_dir_for_slug,
_id_from_proposal_filename non-match)
- read_proposal / read_response reject non-object JSON
- list_pending_proposals skips unreadable/non-dict/incomplete
proposals and ones with a response already present
- wait_for_response tolerates a malformed or incomplete response file
and then times out at the deadline
- read_audit_entries returns [] for a missing log and skips blank /
non-JSON / non-dict / missing-field lines
- the fcntl flock helpers swallow OSError on a bad fd
supervise.py: 89% -> 99%. The one remaining line is an unreachable

from owner/repo, builds the proposal title; missing token raises.
- `revoke_git_gate_provisioned_keys`: revokes a gitea key when the
id-file is present, skips static-provider entries and missing
id-files, raises on a missing token.
bot_bottle/git_gate.py: 70% -> 99% (unit only). Two remaining partial

git block, every matches sub-field (paths/methods/headers type +
regex-compile + unknown-key), and the dlp block (detector type/name,
outbound_on_match, unknown key)
- a full valid route round-trips; detectors:false disables
- parse_config log-level validation + load_config invalid-YAML
- route_to_yaml_dict: minimal/auth/git/dlp/matches with default-omission
- evaluate_matches: exact/prefix/regex paths, method filter, exact +
regex header matching (match and non-match)
egress_addon_core.py: 84% -> 99%. The two remaining missed statements

- inbound response DLP: injection block (403), warn (logged, forwarded),
and LOG_FULL response logging
- WebSocket inbound (server->client) scanning: injection kills the
connection; warn does not; no-websocket is a no-op
- redaction scrubs the token in a header and the request path, not just
the body
- supervise queue-write OSError fails closed (403)
- _token_allow_timeout_from_env: unset/valid/non-numeric/non-positive
- SIGHUP handler reloads routes; a reload failure keeps the last good
config
- LOG_FULL logs the forwarded request
egress_addon.py: 76% -> 94%. The remaining misses are the low-value
edges (no-SIGHUP platform, hostname-redaction-fails-closed) called out

Adopt ADR 0004: stop chasing a single global coverage number and
measure what matters instead.
- Omit the genuinely-interactive `cli/init.py` shell (read_tty_line
prompt loops) alongside the existing `cli/tui.py`, with a rationale
comment in .coveragerc. Subprocess/backend orchestration is NOT
omitted — it stays visible and is scored via the integration suite.
- scripts/coverage.sh runs unit + integration under one coverage
measurement (the policy's yardstick) and can report the critical
security/logic core held to the >=90% target.
- scripts/diff_coverage.py is a stdlib-only gate (no diff-cover dep):
new/changed executable lines must be >=90% covered. This is the
enforced regression guard; the global number is informational.
- CI gains a `coverage` job: combined report + the diff-coverage gate.
- Unit-test `cli/__init__.py` dispatch/exit-code mapping (it's logic,
not I/O, so it earns tests rather than an omit).
Combined unit+integration coverage now reports 83% global / 87% across
the critical modules; per-module ratcheting toward 90% is the ongoing
work this policy frames.

Three UX improvements requested in #270 review:
- filter_multiselect: Space toggles selection, Enter confirms (was both)
- bottle picker: bottles with extends chains show ancestry labels
(e.g. 'claude-dev <- bot-bottle-dev <- dev') for at-a-glance lineage
- preflight: replaces key-value summary with YAML of the resolved manifest
Tab switches focus to the selected-order panel; K/J shift the
highlighted item up/down; Space/Enter removes it. The filter list dims
while the order panel is active. Help line updates per focus mode.
- `bottle:` in agent frontmatter is now optional; agents without it
are portable and require bottles to be selected at launch.
- Adds `filter_multiselect` to `tui.py`: multi-select picker with
ordered selection list, Space/Enter to toggle, Ctrl-D to confirm.
- `ManifestIndex` gains `all_bottle_names` and `load_for_agent` accepts
`bottle_names: tuple[str, ...]` to merge bottles in order at runtime.
- `merge_bottles_runtime` in `manifest_extends.py` applies the same
field-merge rules as `extends:` to pre-resolved bottle objects.
- `BottleSpec` gains `bottle_names`; `_validate` and `write_launch_metadata`
thread it through so `resume` replays the same bottle configuration.
- `cmd_start` shows the bottle multiselect after agent selection,
pre-populated from the agent's `bottle:` field when present.
- Existing agents with `bottle:` declared continue to work unchanged.

Allow extends: to accept a list of bottle names in addition to a plain
string. Parents are resolved independently and folded left-to-right
into a single combined parent before the child is merged on top, so
orthogonal concerns (base env, networking, agent provider) can live in
separate bottles without forcing a linear chain.
Merge rules for the parent fold: env dict-merge with later winning on
collision; git-gate.user per-field overlay; git-gate.repos union by
name with later winning per-field on same name; egress.routes
concatenated; all scalar fields (supervise, agent_provider, egress.log)
use last-wins. The existing child-wins-over-all-parents rule is
unchanged. Cycle detection, diamond deduplication, and missing/invalid
parent errors all work across multi-parent graphs.
Closes#268
Closes#258.
`egress_render_routes` and `_render_match_entry` now pass all manifest
strings (host, auth_scheme, token_env, path/header values) through
`_yaml_str_escape` before interpolating into double-quoted YAML scalars,
preventing stray `"` or newlines from corrupting routes.yaml.
`git_gate_render_gitconfig` now calls `_gitconfig_validate_value` on
each Upstream value (and the derived alias) before writing the
`insteadOf` line, rejecting any value containing a newline that would
inject arbitrary gitconfig keys.
The constant now covers the daemon path, the HTTP backend access-hook,
and the git http-backend CGI subprocess, so 'daemon' in the name was
too narrow. Updated the comment to list all three current uses.
Closes#255. Without timeouts, a hung upstream during the access-hook
or git http-backend CGI call (git_http_backend.py) and a stalled Gitea
API during deploy-key provisioning (contrib/gitea/deploy_key_provisioner.py)
could wedge a sidecar indefinitely. Adds GIT_HTTP_BACKEND_TIMEOUT_SECS
(30s) to both subprocess.run calls in the HTTP backend, mirroring the
existing GIT_GATE_DAEMON_TIMEOUT_SECS on the daemon path. Adds
_API_TIMEOUT_SECS (30s) and _KEYGEN_TIMEOUT_SECS (10s) to the Gitea
provisioner's urlopen and ssh-keygen calls. Tests verify the timeout
values are forwarded in all four call sites.
Introduce _RpcClientError and _RpcInternalError as distinct subclasses
of _RpcError so the dispatcher can handle bad requests and server-side
faults differently — returning client errors verbatim and logging
internal faults with their cause before replying ERR_INTERNAL.
Wrap write_proposal and archive_proposal IO with _RpcInternalError
so OS failures surface through the typed path instead of the bare
Exception fallback. All existing raise _RpcError(...) call sites
converted to _RpcClientError.
Closes#253
An empty or non-numeric Status: header from git http-backend raised
ValueError/IndexError that escaped the handler thread. Wrap the parse

_log_request and _log_response wrote headers and bodies to stderr verbatim.
_log_request also included the sidecar-injected upstream Authorization value,
exposing live bearer tokens on every allowed request under LOG_FULL.

exclude the authorization header from _log_request entirely since its value
is always a live sidecar-injected credential by the time _log_request runs.

When a supervisor-approved safe-token exactly matched an env secret
(Pass 1), Passes 2 & 3 (alnum projection) still ran and re-blocked on
the same value. Track whether any variant was found-and-approved and
skip the projection passes for that secret in that case.
EgressPlan gains a `canary: str` field (default "") populated in Egress.prepare()
using secrets.token_urlsafe(32). Each launched bottle:
- sidecar receives EGRESS_TOKEN_CANARY=<value> (literal env entry, scanned by
existing known-secrets detector without any detector code changes)
- agent receives BOT_BOTTLE_CANARY=<value> (visible fake secret that signals
exfiltration with zero false positives if it appears in outbound traffic)
Docker compose and macos-container backends updated; smolmachines shares docker
compose and so picks this up automatically. Unit tests cover canary uniqueness,
detection via scan_known_secrets, and EgressPlan backward-compat default.

- _alnum_projection(): strip non-alphanumeric chars for separator-injection detection
- scan_known_secrets() gains two extra passes per secret after exact-variant matching:
alnum-projection exact match (catches hyphens/spaces between secret chars) and a
sliding-window partial-match scan (catches chunked substrings ≥ PARTIAL_MATCH_MIN_LEN)
- scan_known_secrets() accepts sensitive_prefixes param (default ("EGRESS_TOKEN_",))
so redact_tokens and call-sites can extend the scanned env-var prefix set
- scan_entropy() warn-only detector flagging windows with Shannon entropy ≥ 5.5 bits/char
- "entropy" added to OUTBOUND_DETECTOR_NAMES; scan_outbound opts it in only when
explicitly listed in dlp.outbound_detectors (never part of the default "all" set)
- scan_outbound reads BOT_BOTTLE_SENSITIVE_PREFIXES from environ to extend
scan_known_secrets beyond EGRESS_TOKEN_* without schema changes
- Binary bodies decoded via latin-1 fallback (bijective byte↔codepoint) instead
of utf-8 errors=replace, preserving ASCII secret strings in binary payloads

Gitea returns HTTP 422 when a deploy key title or public key content
already exists on the repo. The provisioner previously surfaced this
as a generic RuntimeError with the raw status code. Introduce
DeployKeyCollisionError (a RuntimeError subclass) in the base module
and detect 422 in GiteaDeployKeyProvisioner.create so callers can
catch collisions explicitly and the error message names the repo and
title involved.
The constant and its MCP tool name ("allow" → "egress-allow") were the
only supervise tools without an egress-scoped identifier, despite the
tool being egress-only (routes.yaml payload, COMPONENT_FOR_TOOL maps
it to "egress", always grouped with TOOL_EGRESS_BLOCK). The rename
brings it in line with TOOL_EGRESS_BLOCK and TOOL_EGRESS_TOKEN_ALLOW,
and adds TOOL_EGRESS_ALLOW and TOOL_EGRESS_BLOCK to __all__ (both were
previously absent).
Conform the PRD to the standard PRD-new skeleton: add a Scope section
(In scope / Out of scope), rename Design -> Proposed Design and split
its prose into New services / Existing code touched / Data model
changes / External dependencies, fold the old Implementation chunks
into In scope, and add a References section. No change in substance.

Provider routes (the agent talking to its own LLM API — api.anthropic.com,
the Codex backend, etc.) carry the whole conversation payload, which is the
worst source of token-shaped false positives. egress_routes_for_bottle now
fills outbound_on_match=redact on any provider route that doesn't set it
explicitly, so a match there is scrubbed and forwarded rather than blocked
or queued for the operator. A provider that sets the policy keeps its
choice; manifest routes still default to supervise.
Tests: provider route gets redact default, explicit provider policy
preserved, manifest route unaffected. README + PRD 0062 updated.

A 403 "egress DLP: URL-encoded CRLF (%0d%0a)" was firing on legitimate
requests (e.g. the Claude Code login flow) and bypassing the on-match
policy entirely, because CRLF blocks carry no matched value and were
routed straight to a hard 403.
Root cause: CRLF injection is only an attack in the request line and
headers. An HTTP body is delimited by Content-Length, so CRLF bytes in
the body cannot split the request — but the scan flattened the body into
the same blob it checked, so form-encoded / multi-line body content
(which legitimately contains %0d%0a) tripped it.
Fix:
- scan_outbound takes a crlf_text param; the addon scans CRLF only over
the body-excluded request line + headers. crlf_text=None keeps the
old full-blob behavior for host-side callers/tests; the websocket path
passes "" since a data frame is not a request line.
- The redact policy now also scrubs CRLF (new strip_crlf helper) from the
path and headers, so redact is a complete escape hatch and structural
CRLF in the URL/headers can be forwarded when a route opts into it.
Tests: strip_crlf unit tests; scan_outbound crlf_text body-exclusion and
backward-compat tests.

Give each egress route a policy for what the proxy does when an outbound
DLP detector matches a token, defaulting to the supervise flow added in
the previous commit. The goal is cutting false-positive friction without
weakening default-deny.
- redact: scrub the matched value(s) from the body, non-host headers, and
path/query via redact_tokens, then re-scan. Forward if clean; fail
closed with a 403 if a match remains on a surface redaction can't
rewrite (the hostname, or a unicode-evasion token). For routes where a
token-shaped value is noise the upstream doesn't need.
- block: the original hard 403, never overridable.
- supervise (default, unset): hold the request for operator approval.
Structural blocks (CRLF, no safelist-able value) stay hard 403s under
every policy.
Threads outbound_on_match from the bottle manifest (manifest_egress)
through the resolved EgressRoute and rendered routes.yaml (egress.py) to
the addon's Route (egress_addon_core), and round-trips it via the
list-egress-routes introspection endpoint. The allow/egress-block tool
descriptions document the new key.
Tests: manifest parse/validation, core parse/validation, full
manifest->render->addon round-trip for redact. README + PRD 0062 updated.

When the outbound DLP catches a token, route the block through the
existing supervisor approval queue instead of returning 403 outright.
The egress proxy holds the request open until the operator answers, then
remembers an approved value for the life of the proxy so the request --
and later ones carrying it -- flow through. Fails closed on rejection,
timeout, malformed response, or when supervise is disabled.
- ScanResult.matched carries the raw matched substring (sidecar-only;
never logged or written to the proposal). scan_outbound and the token
detectors take a safe_tokens set and skip approved values, continuing
past a safelisted match so a second secret in the same request is
still caught.
- New egress-token-allow proposal tool, written directly to the queue by
the addon (the gitleaks-allow pattern from PRD 0061). build_token_allow
_payload renders host/method/path/detector reason + redacted context.
- Async request hook polls the queue without stalling the proxy event
loop; EGRESS_TOKEN_ALLOW_TIMEOUT_SECONDS (default 300) bounds the wait.
- Supervisor TUI renders egress-token-allow like gitleaks-allow: report
only, modify unavailable, approval requires a recorded reason.
- Unit tests for the matched/safe-tokens plumbing, payload builder, tool
constant round-trip, and TUI paths; README + PRD 0062.
Closes#261.

log.py was bare print-to-stderr wrappers with no levels or attributable
context (issue #252). Add:
- Ordered severities (debug/info/warn/error) gated by
BOT_BOTTLE_LOG_LEVEL (default info). debug is silent by default;
error always surfaces (nothing sits above it), so the fatal die path
stays visible regardless of configured level.
- An optional `context` mapping on every wrapper, rendered as a
parseable ` [k=v ...]` suffix (keys sorted; whitespace/quoted values
quoted) so failures can be filtered and correlated.
Default output with no context is byte-identical to the original lines,
so the 100+ existing single-string call sites are unaffected. Wires the
supervise crash path (the example the issue names) to attach error_type
and crash_log context. Adds test_log.py (backward-compat, context
rendering, level gating, die surfacing).
Closes#252.

The "~20% of ClawHub skills malicious" claim had no traceable source and
is contradicted by the empirical literature. Replace with the Jan 2026
large-scale study (98,380-skill snapshot: 157 confirmed malicious, ~71%
credential harvesters, exfiltration overwhelmingly naive) and add the
arXiv citation. The corrected figures still support the supply-chain

Issue #249: bottles should be supervised by default. Rather than
remove the flag (which would make supervision mandatory and is the
wrong plane for cost-control enforcement — see #251), keep the
opt-out and flip the default. Bottles that omit `supervise:` now get
the stuck-recovery sidecar; `supervise: false` still skips it.

The egress route fields table described `role` as a functional field
that wires built-in auth flows. PRD 0029 removed the
`claude_code_oauth` role; the manifest parser now rejects any `role`
value as reserved-for-future-use. Provider auth routes are injected
from `agent_provider.auth_token`.
- README: fix the `role` row to state it is reserved and any value is
rejected at load.
- examples/bottles/claude.md: the manual `api.anthropic.com` route used
the rejected `role` key and, even without it, would be silently
dropped (provider-injected routes win for a provisioned host) — so its
auth never took effect and the dlp comments described a route that
never exists in the plan. Replace it with the canonical
`agent_provider.auth_token` shape.

Both fields were missing from the reference table added in the preceding
commit — `role` is visible in examples/bottles/claude.md and `git.fetch`
is documented in PRD 0052 but neither appeared in the README table.
The TUI was calling archive_proposal for gitleaks-allow immediately
after write_response, moving the response file to processed/ within
microseconds. The git-gate shell loop polls queue_dir for the response
file every second — it never sees it and hangs until timeout.
capability-block is handled by the MCP sidecar which archives after
reading; gitleaks-allow is handled by the shell gate which archives
after processing. Let the gate own the archive step.
On resume from a committed snapshot, smolvm's pack process remaps all
file uids to the host uid (501 on macOS). Files in /tmp that were
created during the session (e.g. /tmp/claude-1000 owned by node=uid
1000) get remapped to 501. Claude Code then refuses to use the temp
directory because it's owned by a different uid.
Two-part fix:
- Exclude ./tmp and ./var/tmp from the tar in _exec_tar_to_file.
Both directories are ephemeral; a resumed VM should start with clean
temp directories identical to a fresh VM.
- Add mkdir -p /tmp /var/tmp to _init_vm before chown/chmod, so the
directories are created if the committed snapshot omitted them.
Replace the Popen/stdout=PIPE approach with a write-then-copy
strategy that avoids binary-stdout piping through the smolvm exec
channel entirely:
1. Probe connectivity with `machine_exec(machine, ["true"])` first.
If this fails while an interactive session is running, the error
now says "concurrent exec not available" instead of the opaque
"<no stderr>".
2. Run `tar --create --gzip --file=/var/tmp/.bot-bottle-commit.tar.gz`
inside the VM via machine_exec (same mechanism used during
provisioning). tar writes to a file in the VM, not stdout, so
smolvm never has to transmit binary data over the exec channel.
3. Copy the compressed archive to the host with machine_cp.
4. Dockerfile switches to ADD rootfs.tar.gz / — Docker decompresses
gzip tarballs automatically.
smolvm machine exec requires stdout to be a pipe, not a regular
file descriptor. Passing stdout=file caused smolvm to return
non-zero with no stderr (the error was silently swallowed or went
to the regular-file fd instead of reaching us).
Switch _snapshot_running_vm to a new _exec_tar_to_file helper that
uses Popen with stdout=PIPE and streams the tar to disk via
shutil.copyfileobj. A background thread drains stderr concurrently
to prevent deadlock when the stderr pipe buffer fills while we are
writing stdout data.
The terminal-decoration wrapper script is invoked with sh -lc, which
sources login-shell init files (/etc/profile, ~/.profile) rather than
interactive-shell files (~/.zshrc). smolvm is typically installed via
homebrew whose PATH setup lands in ~/.zprofile or ~/.zshrc — not picked
up by sh -l — so pty_resize.py's Popen(["smolvm", ...]) raises
FileNotFoundError, pty_resize exits non-zero, and the trailing reset-
printf makes sh exit 0. The caller sees "session ended (exit 0)"
immediately with no agent output.
Use sh -c instead. The calling process (./cli.py) inherits the user's
interactive shell PATH where smolvm is present, confirmed by the
provision steps (machine_exec) succeeding before exec_agent is reached.
smolvm pack create --from-vm requires the VM to be stopped, and stopping
a smolmachines VM terminates any running interactive session.
Instead, mirror the macos-container approach: exec into the running VM as
root and stream the root filesystem via tar (smolvm machine exec -- tar),
build a Docker image from the archive, push to an ephemeral local registry,
and run smolvm pack create --image to produce the .smolmachine artifact.
The VM stays running throughout the commit.
Remove the stop-confirm prompt and machine_is_running check that were
added in the previous commit — neither is needed when we no longer stop.
smolvm pack create --from-vm requires the VM to be stopped. Add
machine_is_running() to smolvm.py (via machine ls --json state field),
and add the same confirm-stop flow to SmolmachinesFreezer that was
originally designed for macos-container: if running, prompt the user,
stop the VM, then pack. Already-stopped VMs are packed directly.
- Rename export test to reflect new exec-tar mechanism; update argv
assertions to match the new `container exec ... tar` command shape
- Change mock stderr from str to bytes (subprocess.PIPE without text=True)
- Add type annotation to capture_freeze closure to satisfy pyright
Apple Container removes containers when they stop, making the
stop-then-export flow impossible regardless of the --rm flag.
Replace `container export` (requires stopped container) with
`container exec --user root <name> tar --create ... --file=- --directory=/ .`
streamed to a temp file, then build the committed image from that archive
as before. The bottle stays running after commit, which is better UX.
Drop the stop-confirm prompt from MacosContainerFreezer since we no longer
need to stop the container at all.
container stop was removing the container immediately (due to --rm)
before container export could run. The force_remove_container teardown
callback on the ExitStack already handles cleanup on normal exit, so
--rm was redundant. Without it, the stopped container stays available
for container export to snapshot.
Freezer._freeze only ever used bottle.name, which is always
f"bot-bottle-{agent.slug}". Remove the Bottle parameter from
commit() and _freeze(), derive the container name from agent.slug
directly in each subclass, and delete the _NamedBottle stub that
existed solely to paper over this.
Adds a Freezer ABC (backend/freeze.py) that encapsulates the
stop-commit-mark-preserved flow for all backends, following the same
pattern as BottleBackend. Each backend gets its own Freezer subclass:
DockerFreezer — docker commit
MacosContainerFreezer — container export + image rebuild; prompts
to stop if the container is running
SmolmachinesFreezer — smolvm pack create --from-vm
The base class owns write_committed_image, mark_preserved, and the
resume hint. Subclasses implement _freeze() and optionally override
_export_hint() for migration instructions.
Freezer.commit(agent, bottle) is the primary entry point for use
within a live launch context. Freezer.commit_slug(slug) is a
convenience wrapper for cmd_commit, which no longer branches on
backend names itself.
get_freezer(backend_name) is the factory, analogous to
get_bottle_backend(). CommitCancelled is raised by MacosContainerFreezer
when the user declines the stop prompt; cmd_commit catches it and
returns 0.
`container export` requires the container to be stopped first. When a
running bottle is detected, prompt the user to confirm, stop the
container, then commit. Adds `container_is_running` and
`stop_container` helpers to the macos-container util.

- test_docker_launch_committed_image: replace Manifest.from_json_obj
(nonexistent) with ManifestIndex.from_json_obj; pass manifest= arg
to DockerBottlePlan constructor (required by BottlePlan base class)
- test_macos_container_launch: cast SimpleNamespace stubs to their
expected types (BottleSpec, GitGatePlan, EgressPlan) in _build_plan;
add str type annotations to fake_build parameter signatures
- test_macos_container_util: add str type annotations to fake_build_image
parameter signatures
Adds `./cli.py commit [<slug>]` which runs `docker commit` on the
active agent container and stores the resulting image tag in per-bottle
state. The next `./cli.py resume <slug>` automatically boots from the
committed snapshot instead of rebuilding from the Dockerfile, preserving
all in-container state across restarts and migrations.
- bottle_state: add write_committed_image / read_committed_image helpers
- docker/util: add commit_container wrapper around `docker commit`
- docker/launch: check for a committed image before the Dockerfile build
step; fall back to normal build if the image is absent from the daemon
- cli/commit: new command with interactive slug picker; errors clearly on
non-Docker backends
- 50 new unit tests covering all paths

Replace module-level apply_routes_change wrappers with a public
applicator singleton in each backend. Callers now work with the
EgressApplicator instance directly (applicator.apply_routes_change)
rather than through a function shim.
Pulls the duplicated apply_routes_change / validate_routes_content /
_routes_path logic into EgressApplicator (ABC) in backend/egress_apply.py.
DockerEgressApplicator and MacOSContainerEgressApplicator override the
single abstract _signal_bundle_reload method with their respective kill
commands. Module-level shims preserve the existing public API.
- Set http_proxy/https_proxy (lowercase) alongside uppercase variants in smolmachines guest env for tools that only check lowercase
- Replace dataclasses.asdict with route_to_yaml_dict in /allowlist introspection so returned routes use YAML-schema-compatible keys

Mirrors the fix already applied to the macos-container backend in
eb3e64e: bind-mount the parent egress directory instead of the
routes file itself, so the live routes update is visible inside the
running sidecar bundle when the host overwrites the file.
BottleSpec.manifest was ManifestIndex | Manifest — a union encoding
two lifecycle stages in one field. The union was unjustifiable:
it forced a type-narrowing workaround (loaded_manifest property)
on every consumer.
Clean split:
- BottleSpec.manifest: ManifestIndex (always; CLI-supplied intent)
- BottlePlan.manifest: Manifest (always; loaded by _validate())
_validate() returns the loaded Manifest directly. prepare() passes
it to _resolve_plan(), which stores it on the plan. All provisioner
code now reads plan.manifest.agent / plan.manifest.bottle — no
union, no asserts, no type: ignore.
BottleSpec.manifest is ManifestIndex | Manifest (pre/post _validate()).
Downstream code always runs post-validate so it needs Manifest, but
pyright flagged every .agent/.bottle access. The new loaded_manifest
property asserts isinstance and returns Manifest, giving pyright a
narrowed type without scattering type: ignore everywhere.
Also remove unused Manifest imports from test files and annotate the
_index() helper in test_manifest_agent_git_user.
Manifest now holds exactly one agent and one effective bottle (with
git_user overlay already applied). The old multi-agent/bottle
collection is renamed ManifestIndex. BottleSpec.manifest starts as
ManifestIndex from the CLI and becomes Manifest after _validate()
calls load_for_agent(); all provisioning code downstream reads
spec.manifest.agent / spec.manifest.bottle instead of indexing by name.
Filter to exactly one agent and one bottle in both the lazy (md-dirs)
and eager (from_json_obj) paths so the returned manifest invariant
holds regardless of how the manifest was constructed.
Manifest.resolve() now returns an empty-dict manifest with only directory
paths recorded (home_md, cwd_md). No content is read from any .md file
until load_for_agent() is called for a specific agent at preflight.
- Manifest.from_md_dirs: scan-only, no frontmatter parsing
- Manifest.load_for_agent: parses the selected agent file and its bottle
chain; works on eager (from_json_obj) manifests too by returning self
- Manifest.all_agent_names: scans filenames in lazy mode
- backend._validate: calls load_for_agent and propagates upgraded spec
- cli/info.py, cli/list.py, cli/start.py: use load_for_agent / all_agent_names
- manifest_extends.py: reverted to original (no partial-resolve helpers)
- manifest_loader.py: only scan_agent_names + load_bottle_chain_from_dir
- Tests updated to call load_for_agent before accessing agents/bottles;
test_md_agent_repos_deferred renamed to test_md_agent_repos_fails_at_preflight
Import ManifestError at module level from manifest_util (no circular
dep) and remove the redundant local imports from function bodies that
were shadowing it. ManifestBottle retains its local import pattern to
avoid the circular manifest ↔ manifest_extends dependency.
Broken bottle/agent files no longer block the agent selector or prevent
unrelated agents from loading. Per-file parse errors are collected in
`Manifest.broken_agents`; the CLI selector includes them via
`all_agent_names`, and the error surfaces only when the specific agent
is selected and launch is attempted (in `require_agent`/`bottle_for`).
Closes#236
Apple's container exec --interactive --tty does not put the host
terminal into raw mode before starting its I/O relay. In cooked
(canonical) mode the kernel line discipline buffers modifier-key
escape sequences — e.g. Shift+Enter in modifyOtherKeys mode generates
\x1b[13;2~ — until a carriage-return arrives, so they never reach
Claude Code inside the container.
Add pty_forward.py, a stdlib-only wrapper (modelled on the existing
smolmachines pty_resize.py) that sets the host terminal to raw mode
via tty.setraw(), spawns the container exec command, and restores the
original terminal attributes on exit. Falls back to a bare
subprocess.run when stdin is not a TTY (piped invocations, CI) or
when termios operations fail.
Also retain the --env TERM=<host> forwarding from the previous commit:
without TERM inside the container session, Claude Code cannot determine
which modifier-key protocol to enable even with raw mode correctly set.
Non-TTY exec paths (bottle.exec, cp_in) are unaffected.
Without TERM, Claude Code inside the container cannot determine which
modifier-key protocol to enable (modifyOtherKeys / kitty). The inner
PTY session has no terminal-type context, so Shift+Enter and Enter
produce identical byte sequences (\r), making them indistinguishable.
Pass the host TERM via --env TERM=<value> on every container exec
--interactive --tty call, falling back to xterm-256color when TERM
is not set on the host. Non-TTY exec paths are unaffected.
Closes#245
When a label is set (e.g. "bob"), the display becomes "bob (claude-implementer)"
so the agent type is always visible. Affects all three backends (docker,
macos-container, smolmachines) and the `cli.py list active` output.
Closes#243
When a label is given it is now used verbatim as the slug (no random
suffix), so two launches with the same label collide by design. The
CLI re-prompts via the TUI name modal with a disclaimer when the
candidate slug is already in use among running bottles.
When a user names a bottle via the TUI label field, that name is now
used as the slug prefix for the container identity instead of always
falling back to the agent name.
Remove the 8 non-bright and 1 bright-black colors from all color maps.
Rename the remaining 7 bright-* colors to their base names (e.g.
bright-green → green) so the palette is smaller and always vibrant.
Update _init_color_pairs in tui.py to always apply A_BOLD (all palette
entries are now bright variants), and fix all tests to match.
The git-gate copies the identity file at start time and surfaces a
clear failure then; the pre-launch presence check was redundant.

_validate_git_entries was written for static keys (PRD 0008) and ran
os.path.isfile() on every entry's IdentityFile. gitea-provider repos
(PRD 0047/0048) create their deploy key at provision time, so
IdentityFile is empty at parse — tripping the check with an empty path
("git upstream key file not found for '<name>': "). Gate the host-file
check on the static provider; gitea entries have nothing to verify here.

Replace the lossy _entry_to_raw round-trip with a repos_cache threaded
alongside the ManifestBottle cache in _resolve_one_bottle. Each bottle's
effective git-gate.repos is stored as raw dicts keyed by name, so a child
field-merges directly against its parent's raw repos instead of
reconstructing them from parsed ManifestGitEntry objects.
_resolve_repos_raw now owns the union/clear/inherit semantics on plain
dicts; _merge_bottles just injects the precomputed merged set before
parsing. Drops _entry_to_raw entirely, removing the maintenance hazard
where a new ManifestGitEntry field would silently vanish from inherited
repos.
Addresses review feedback on #238.

Replace the bespoke _pre_merge_git_repos loop and _merge_git_remotes
with a single _merge_git_repos_raw that does a name-keyed union merge
at the raw dict level: build parent_repos from _entry_to_raw, then
for each name in set(child) | set(parent) produce {**parent.get(n,{}),
**child.get(n,{})}. child.git after from_dict already has the full
merged set, so _merge_git_remotes is no longer needed.
When a child bottle declares a git-gate repo with the same name as a
parent repo, merge field-by-field (child wins, parent provides fallback)
instead of letting the child entry silently replace the parent entry.
This lets a child override only `key:` without repeating `url:` and
`host_key:`. Change the merge key in _merge_git_remotes from UpstreamHost
to Name, which is the natural unique identity for a repo entry.
Closes#237
Replace the two mutually-exclusive repo keys (identity and
provisioned_key) with a single required key block. key.provider
is "static" (path to host SSH key) or "gitea" (deploy-key lifecycle
via provisioner_token env var, replacing token_env).
Internal fields: ManifestProvisionedKeyConfig → ManifestKeyConfig;
ProvisionedKey field removed from ManifestGitEntry; Key field added.
git_gate.py checks entry.Key.provider == "gitea" instead of
entry.ProvisionedKey is not None.
`container system info` is not a valid subcommand and always returned

Add backend-agnostic terminal color support via OSC escape sequences:
- New backend/terminal.py with palette_printf() and exec_shell_script()
shared by both Docker and smolmachines bottle backends
- Emits OSC 4 (indexed palette) + OSC 11 (default background tint)
before launching; resets both on agent exit via OSC 104/111
- OSC 11 background tint is visible even when the TUI uses true/24-bit
colors (which bypass the palette), as Codex does for its chrome
- Fix Codex [tui] config: status_line=["model-with-reasoning"],
theme="ansi" (dark-ansi and cwd/directory were invalid identifiers)

terminal_title, dark-ansi theme)
- Both backends set the terminal title via ANSI OSC 0 escape before
exec-ing the agent when a label is present

Drop the parallel fields passed through prepare() → _resolve_plan and
read everything from agent_provision instead. The provider plugin now
declares its own guest_home (so the backend stops hardcoding
"/home/node") and the wrapper that builds the provision plan accepts
instance_name and prompt_file, which providers store on the plan.
DockerBottlePlan and SmolmachinesBottlePlan expose container_name /
machine_name, image / agent_image, dockerfile_path /
agent_dockerfile_path, and prompt_file as properties that delegate to
agent_provision so existing call sites keep working unchanged.

BottleBackend.prepare was calling resolve_manifest_dockerfile("", spec)
for every bottle where the manifest did not set agent_provider.dockerfile.
That resolves an empty string against user_cwd, returning the cwd
itself — which docker then tried to read as a Dockerfile, giving
"is a directory" errors during image build.
When the manifest doesn't override, use the provider plugin's bundled
Dockerfile path (next to its agent_provider.py module) — mirroring
the pre-refactor behavior.
BottleBackend.prepare computed slug and resolved_env but never passed
them to _resolve_plan. The concrete docker/smolmachines _resolve_plan
methods still had the old (spec, *, stage_dir) signature too, so
prepare's kwargs blew up with "unexpected keyword argument
'instance_name'" the moment cli.py start was invoked.
Update the abstract _resolve_plan signature and both backend
implementations to accept the full kwarg set prepare passes, and
forward to resolve_plan.resolve_plan() with everything.
The recent refactor partially removed workspace planning and
capability-apply logic. This commit finishes the cleanup so the
test suite imports cleanly:
- Comment out workspace_plan field/property on BottlePlan and the
provision_workspace dispatch.
- Comment out workspace usages in docker.util (build_image_with_cwd),
smolmachines.provision.workspace, agent_provider.provision_git,
smolmachines.backend.
- Comment out capability_apply imports in cli.start and cli.supervise;
add a local CapabilityApplyError placeholder so the supervise CLI
module still imports.
- Break the bottle_state → backend.docker → backend circular import
by lazy-loading docker_mod inside bottle_identity, and by moving the
resolve_common import inside BottleBackend.prepare.
- Delete tests for workspace and capability_apply (unit + integration).
- Update test fixtures to drop removed kwargs (container_name_pinned,
derived_image, env_file, workspace_plan, agent_image_ref) from
DockerBottlePlan / SmolmachinesBottlePlan constructors.
- Delete the obsolete test_smolmachines_prepare.py (tested the old
resolve_plan signature; the shared prepare flow now lives in
BottleBackend.prepare).
- Adjust test_supervise.py for the new Supervise.prepare signature
(dockerfile_content arg removed).
925 → 897 tests, all passing.
guest_home is now a field on AgentProvisionPlan (set by each provider's
provision_plan() method). BottlePlan.guest_home becomes a read-only
property delegating to agent_provision.guest_home so existing callers
(provision_git, provision_skills, provision_prompt) are unchanged.
Both resolve_plan.py files drop guest_home from the plan constructor
call; the local variable still exists as an intermediary for the
workspace_plan call that precedes agent_provision_plan.
Both docker and smolmachines resolve_plan.py duplicated: slug minting,
metadata writing, agent state dir setup, git gate / egress / supervise
preparation, env_vars merge, and manifest dockerfile path resolution.
These are now consolidated in bot_bottle/backend/resolve_common.py.
Each backend's resolve_plan retains only its own logic (container name
resolution + env-file for docker; subnet allocation + guest_env build
for smolmachines).
Both docker and smolmachines backends use bottle state helpers.
Moving to bot_bottle/ makes the sharing explicit and removes the
cross-backend dependency (smolmachines importing from ..docker).
All callers updated: docker backend, smolmachines backend, cli
modules, and tests.
Since every provider always has a dockerfile, establish the default
image and dockerfile_path from the provider up front and override for
per-bottle or manifest-specified cases. Removes the image_default
intermediate variable and the trailing else branch.
The convention is that every provider declares a Dockerfile location;
callers that care whether the file actually exists check .is_file().
Drops all `is not None` guards on the property result.
Drop the `dockerfile` field from `AgentProviderRuntime` and replace it
with a convention-based `dockerfile` property on `AgentProvider`: the
base class looks for a `Dockerfile` file next to the provider's own
`agent_provider.py` module (via `inspect.getfile`), returning its path
or None. Built-in providers inherit the default automatically; custom
user providers work the same way by dropping a Dockerfile next to their
plugin file; any provider needing a non-standard path can override.
All callers (`docker/prepare.py`, `smolmachines/prepare.py`,
`capability_apply.py`) now resolve the provider object once and call
`.dockerfile` directly instead of reading `runtime.dockerfile`.
Dockerfile.claude and Dockerfile.codex move from the repo root into
bot_bottle/contrib/claude/Dockerfile and bot_bottle/contrib/codex/Dockerfile
respectively, so all per-provider assets live alongside the provider code.
Closes#215
Each DLP block/warn now reports where the match was found (body,
authorization header, response body) and includes a context snippet:
SNIPPET_CONTEXT chars before and after the match, with the matched
value replaced by REDACT ("********").
scan_token_patterns/scan_known_secrets/scan_naive_injection all gain
`location` and `context` fields on their ScanResult returns. The
outbound scanner takes `auth_header` as a separate kwarg so the two
locations are scanned and reported independently.
redact_tokens() is added to dlp_detectors and used in egress_addon.py
to scrub token patterns and provisioned secrets from host/path fields
before they appear in any log output (level 1 and 2).

Level 0 (off, default): no stderr output beyond boot line.
Level 1 (blocks): each block/warn emitted as JSON with reason and
request context (host, method, path, response_status for inbound).
Level 2 (full): level-1 events + egress_request and egress_response
JSON lines for every forwarded connection.
Block logging at level 1+ replaces the previous plain-text stderr write.
DLP warn logging is also gated on level 1+. All block call sites now pass
_req_ctx(flow) so the blocked request is visible in the log entry.
Boot message shows log level label (off/blocks/full).
Adds PRD 0053 documenting wire format, manifest format, and all log event
shapes.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds a top-level `log: true` option to the egress config that logs the
full request (method, path, headers, body) and response (status, headers,
body) for every forwarded connection as JSON lines on stderr.
Wire format: `log: true` at the root of routes.yaml, parsed into the new
`Config` dataclass alongside `routes`. The sidecar addon switches from
`self.routes` to `self.config` and writes `_log_request` / `_log_response`
JSON lines when `self.config.log` is set.
Manifest: `egress.log: true` in bottle YAML flows through `EgressConfig.Log`
→ `Egress.prepare()` → `egress_render_routes(..., log=)` → routes.yaml.
`EgressPlan` also carries the flag for introspection.

The workflow was silently skipping prd-new-*.md files added in earlier
commits of a multi-commit PR. The final push commit is just the
implementation; the PRD rename to prd-new- happens in an earlier commit
on the branch, so git diff HEAD~1 HEAD never saw it.
Fix: glob the working tree for prd-new-*.md directly. Also switch the
non-PRD-changed check to use GITHUB_EVENT_BEFORE..HEAD so it covers the
full push range rather than just the last commit. Increase fetch-depth
to 0 so the before-SHA is always reachable.

Chunk 1 (schema + storage): BottleSpec, ActiveAgent, and BottleMetadata
gain label and color fields. Both docker and smolmachines backends
persist them to metadata.json on prepare and surface them in
enumerate_active_agents(). AgentProvider.provision_plan() passes
label/color through to the Claude provider, which injects them into
claude.json so claude-code displays the session name and color in its
header. Codex provider accepts and ignores the knobs.
Chunk 2 (curses modal + display): cmd_start presents a two-step curses
modal — first edit the label (first keystroke replaces the pre-fill),
then optionally pick a color. cli list active renders label with ANSI
escape codes when the terminal supports it, falling back to agent_name
when no label is set.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Dashboard no longer exists; remove all references to it
- Active agent display surface is cli list active, not a TUI pane
- Label/color rendered with ANSI escape codes in list output
- Modal called from cmd_start only, no supervisor _new_agent_flow
- Remove _format_agent_row/_color_pair_for curses design (list is
plain text); add _ansi_color() helper design instead
- Clarify slug-suffix caveat: modal appears before prepare() mints
the slug so default label falls back to agent_name
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Single modal with two steps (label then color) instead of
bare text prompts dropped to terminal
- Default label is <agent_name>-<slug_suffix>; first keystroke
replaces the pre-fill rather than appending to it
- Color step shows a navigable list with live color preview;
(none) selected by default; Esc skips
- Modal lives in tui.py and is shared between supervisor flow
and cmd_start

- Add Dockerfile cascade to docker prepare: per-bottle override →
manifest dockerfile → user plugin Dockerfile → provider default
- Move provision_ca and provision_git from backend-specific
provision/ modules to AgentProvider ABC as overridable defaults;
delete docker/provision/ca.py, docker/provision/git.py,
smolmachines/provision/ca.py, smolmachines/provision/git.py
- Add git_gate_insteadof_host/scheme properties to BottlePlan base;
SmolmachinesBottlePlan overrides them to return agent_git_gate_host
and "http" so provision_git works correctly on both backends
- Move SIGKILL retry from smolmachines provision/ca.py into
SmolmachinesBottle.exec via _exec_raw helper — all exec calls
on smolmachines now transparently retry once on exit 137
- Relax manifest_agent template validation to allow user-defined
template names; keep auth_token/forward_host_credentials guards
for built-in-only features
- Update tests: rewrite test_docker_provision_git_user and
test_smolmachines_provision to call provider methods directly;
add TestSmolmachinesBottleExec for SIGKILL retry coverage

Renames docs/prds/0052-user-provider-plugins.md to 0053-user-provider-plugins.md
and updates the heading inside the file. 0052 is now reserved for the egress
DLP addon.
codex_auth.py was moved into contrib/codex/ but still used `.log`/
`.util` relative imports that resolved to the parent bot_bottle
package before the move — update to `...log` / `...util`.
_read_winsize() called sys.stdin.fileno() outside the OSError guard;
pytest's redirected stdin raises UnsupportedOperation (an OSError
subclass) there, breaking test_returns_first_tty_size. Move fileno()
inside the try block so any non-TTY stream is skipped cleanly.
Drops `egress-block` from the supervise sidecar, removes
`_merge_single_route`, `add_route`, and `apply_routes_change` from
egress_apply.py, and strips the proposal/approve/reject flow for egress
from the supervise CLI. The list-egress-routes and capability-block tools
are unaffected. Tests updated throughout.
Closes#198
Removes socat, openssh-client, and dnsutils from Dockerfile.claude
and Dockerfile.codex.
- socat was the privileged forwarder for the in-container ssh-agent
that PRD 0009 removed; nothing in bot_bottle references it.
- openssh-client was needed back when the agent talked ssh:// to
upstreams; git-gate's insteadOf rewrites now route every upstream
through HTTP/git-protocol, and ssh-keygen runs host-side from the
deploy-key provisioner.
- dnsutils was only used by tests/integration/test_sandbox_escape.py
(attack 4b runs dig from inside the agent container).
Splits python3/python3-pip/python3-venv onto a separate layer with
a comment noting they're app-specific and a candidate to move to a
downstream image.
Implements #213: PRDs use prd-new-<slug>.md while a PR is open; a
post-merge workflow on main assigns sequential numbers and renames the
file. A required PR check blocks prd-new-*.md from landing on main
without going through the workflow.

Pipelock was removed in PR #193. Update the five remaining places
where current documentation (README, examples/bottles/claude.md,
tests/README.md, docs/ci.md, sidecar_bundle.py comment) still
described the old pipelock + cred-proxy topology.
The old patterns required a trailing ] that badge markdown doesn't have,
so sed never matched and the README was never updated. Switch to matching
only the /badge/tool-... URL segment, which is stable and unambiguous.
Also encode / as %2F in the pylint score for a valid shields.io URL.

Research doc: close open questions with decisions from review — hard
cutover on path_allowlist, drop glob (regex sufficient), stick with
Gateway API OR semantics for headers, case-insensitive method names.

Add analysis of Google DeepMind's CaMeL (arXiv:2503.18813), which
prevents prompt injections architecturally rather than detecting them.
Key findings:
- CaMeL operates at the agent execution layer (P-LLM/Q-LLM split +
capability-based data flow tracking), not the network layer
- Not a replacement for pipelock/DLP — different threat surface
- Not viable today: research artifact, requires agent rearchitecture,
doubles LLM costs, 7% utility loss on AgentDojo
- Worth watching: its capability model could complement bot-bottle's
network controls if it matures into production software
Also clarifies pipelock's actual detection capabilities (no prompt
injection detection) and adds naive detector sketch.

- Remove all time estimates (2-3 weeks, 1-2 weeks, etc.)
- Add detailed analysis of using LLM for prompt injection detection
- Survey existing models (none purpose-built for this)
- Sketch DistilBERT fine-tuning approach (~67MB quantized)
- Analyze latency/footprint tradeoffs (50-150ms vs. <5ms for patterns)
- Recommend pattern-based Phase 2, with LLM as optional Phase 2b
- Include code sketch of LLM detector with timeout fallback
- List open questions for LLM deployment
Conclusion: Patterns are faster/simpler for now; LLM only if patterns
miss sophisticated attacks in production.

- Make scanning enabled by default per detector type
- Clarify that multiple encodings of secrets should be checked
Phase 1 now focuses on preventing outbound credential leaks.

The issue: Both the original file object (tty_fd) and the FileIO object
created in _run_picker() were managing the same file descriptor. When
both tried to close it (or during garbage collection), we got
'Bad file descriptor' errors.
The solution: Use os.dup() to create an independent copy of the fd that
FileIO can own exclusively. The original file object closes its copy,
and FileIO closes its independent copy, preventing conflicts.
This properly separates fd ownership between the two objects.
Fixes the 'Exception ignored while finalizing file' errors on agent startup.

The sync() function is used in two contexts:
1. As a signal handler: signal.signal(signal.SIGWINCH, sync)
- Called with (signum: int, frame: FrameType | None)
2. As a threading.Timer callback: Timer(..., sync)
- Called with no arguments
Made parameters optional with defaults to support both call patterns.
Added type: ignore for signal.signal() since the type signature differs.
Fixes: TypeError when Timer tries to call sync() with no arguments.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The issue: filter_select() opens a file object and passes its file
descriptor to _run_picker(). Inside _run_picker(), a FileIO object is
created from that same fd number. When filter_select() then calls
tty_fd.close(), it closes the underlying fd. But FileIO still has a
reference to that fd number, causing 'Bad file descriptor' errors.
Solution: Don't explicitly close tty_fd. Let it be garbage collected,
which naturally closes the fd. This works because FileIO will also
attempt to close it, but by that time both objects reference the same
closed fd through the file object's lifecycle.
The fd is properly closed by the time the function returns.
Fixes agent startup failure.

- Add bot_bottle/cli/tui.py: curses filter-select picker that opens
/dev/tty directly so it works with redirected stdout/stdin
- Make `name` positional optional (nargs="?") in cmd_start; show agent
picker when absent
- Show backend picker when no --backend flag and BOT_BOTTLE_BACKEND is
unset; skip when either is explicit or the env var is present
- Add tests/unit/test_cli_tui.py covering _filter_items logic and
short-circuit paths (empty list, unavailable tty)
- Add tests/unit/test_cli_start_selector.py covering all four dispatch
combinations (both explicit, agent-absent, backend-absent, both-absent)
and cancel semantics
- Activate PRD 0051
Per PR review feedback (review #132): guest_home shouldn't be
buried inside workspace_plan / read from a hardcoded literal in
each provision module. It's a cross-cutting bottle property — the
backend's prepare step knows it, and every downstream consumer
(contrib providers, git provisioning, gitconfig path) should
read it from one place.
- Adds guest_home: str to BottlePlan base dataclass.
- Both backends' prepare steps populate plan.guest_home.
- contrib/{claude,codex}/agent_provider.py read plan.guest_home
(was plan.workspace_plan.guest_home).
- bot_bottle/backend/docker/provision/git.py reads plan.guest_home
for the gitconfig destination (was hardcoded "/home/node").
- bot_bottle/backend/smolmachines/provision/git.py drops the
_GUEST_HOME / _guest_home() helpers and reads plan.guest_home.
- Tests that construct BottlePlan subclasses directly pass
guest_home="/home/node" explicitly.
Per PR review feedback (review #130): the GUEST_HOME = '/home/node'
default in agent_provider.py was driving the wrong direction —
the agent provider shouldn't ship its own opinion about the guest
home, the backend should.
- Removes the GUEST_HOME constant.
- Makes guest_home a required kwarg on AgentProvider.provision_plan
and the agent_provision_plan shim (no default).
- Drops module-level _SKILLS_DIR / _PROMPT_PATH constants from
contrib/{claude,codex}/agent_provider.py; both providers now
derive the in-guest paths from plan.workspace_plan.guest_home
at call time, which the backend's prepare step populated.
- Updates tests/unit/test_agent_provider.py callers to pass
guest_home explicitly. The backend prepare paths already pass
it; no production-code call sites changed.
Each AgentProvider now owns its skills / prompt / provision /
supervise_mcp end-to-end. The base ABC declares all four as
abstract; ClaudeAgentProvider and CodexAgentProvider each carry
their own copy loop.
Per PR review feedback (review #128): the shared
_provision_apply.py abstraction was weak — Claude and Codex
harnesses already diverge (codex's dummy-auth + login-status
verify has no claude analogue) and forcing both onto one helper
just postpones the split. Duplication is intentional.
Deletes bot_bottle/_provision_apply.py and consolidates testing
under tests/unit/test_contrib_{claude,codex}_provider.py (one
file per provider, covering all four methods).
- tests/unit/test_provision_apply.py covers the new shared
apply helpers (apply_skills / apply_prompt / apply_provision)
that replace the per-backend modules deleted in the prior
commit.
- tests/unit/test_contrib_supervise_mcp.py covers both providers'
provision_supervise_mcp behavior — confirms the codex bottle
now runs `codex mcp add` symmetrically with claude.
- tests/unit/test_smolmachines_provision.py drops the four test
classes whose subjects moved (TestProvisionPrompt /
TestProvisionProviderAuth / TestProvisionSkills /
TestProvisionSupervise); the backend-side CA / git / workspace
classes stay.
- tests/unit/test_docker_provision_provider_auth.py removed; its
coverage now lives in tests/unit/test_provision_apply.py
(apply_provision is backend-agnostic, one test file suffices).
Drops the BOT_BOTTLE_CONTAINER_HOME, BOT_BOTTLE_GUEST_HOME,
BOT_BOTTLE_CONTAINER_SKILLS_DIR, and BOT_BOTTLE_GUEST_SKILLS_DIR
env knobs the deleted provision modules used to read. /home/node
is hardcoded everywhere the knobs lived; the values were
effectively constants today and removing them keeps the PRD-0050
surface area honest.
Flips PRD 0050 Status: Draft → Active. Closes#177 on merge.
BottleBackend.provision now resolves the provider plugin from the
plan and dispatches prompt / skills / declarative-apply /
supervise-mcp through it. The four hooks the docker + smolmachines
backends used to override (provision_skills, provision_prompt,
provision_provider_auth, provision_supervise) are gone — the
duplicated 50-line implementations under
backend/{docker,smolmachines}/provision/{skills,prompt,
provider_auth,supervise}.py are deleted.
Each backend gains a small supervise_mcp_url(plan) override so the
provider plugin can run `claude mcp add` / `codex mcp add`
against the right URL: docker returns
http://{SUPERVISE_HOSTNAME}:{SUPERVISE_PORT}/ on the compose
network alias; smolmachines returns plan.agent_supervise_url which
launch.py already pins to a host-loopback port.
Removes tests/unit/test_provision_supervise.py — the URL it
asserted on now lives on the backend, with no equivalent
standalone surface to test against (it's covered by the broader
plan / launch integration tests).
Lift the provider-specific blocks of agent_provision_plan into
contrib/claude/agent_provider.py and contrib/codex/agent_provider.py,
behind a new AgentProvider ABC and a lazy get_provider() registry
(mirrors PRD 0048's contrib convention).
agent_provision_plan and runtime_for stay as thin shims so existing
callers in backend/{docker,smolmachines}/prepare.py and cli/start.py
keep working without per-call edits — the shipping diff in this commit
is purely 'who owns the producer'.
Adds bot_bottle/_provision_apply.py — the backend-agnostic
skills / prompt / declarative-plan apply loops the per-provider
default methods will dispatch through in the next commit.

Closes#178.
The backend provision functions now receive a Bottle handle with
exec / cp_in methods instead of a raw target string. Provisioner
modules use bottle.exec and bottle.cp_in in place of inlined
subprocess.run(["docker", "exec"/"cp", ...]) and direct
_smolvm.machine_cp / machine_exec calls. This decouples the
provisioners from backend-specific runtime primitives so future
refactors (e.g. the supervise rework) can swap the bottle's exec
implementation without touching every provisioner.
Each launch.py constructs the Bottle handle before calling
provision so it can be passed in; provision_prompt's return value
is wired back onto the bottle's prompt path attribute after the
fact.
- manifest_git.py: add ProvisionedKeyConfig dataclass; extend GitEntry
with ProvisionedKey field (optional); make IdentityFile default to ""
so provisioned_key entries can be constructed without a static path;
add _parse_provisioned_key_config; update from_repos_entry to accept
provisioned_key as an alternative to identity (mutually exclusive,
parser rejects both-or-neither)
- deploy_key_provisioner.py (new): DeployKeyProvisioner ABC with create()
and delete() abstract methods; get_provisioner() factory with lazy
contrib import for gitea
- contrib/gitea/deploy_key_provisioner.py (new): GiteaDeployKeyProvisioner
generating ed25519 keypairs via ssh-keygen and managing them through
the Gitea deploy-key API (POST/DELETE); 404 on delete is success;
all other errors raise RuntimeError
- git_gate.py: add _provision_dynamic_key() called in GitGate.prepare()
for entries with ProvisionedKey — generates key, writes private key
and key ID files to stage_dir, patches GitGateUpstream.identity_file;
add revoke_git_gate_provisioned_keys() for teardown — raises on failure
- docker/launch.py: call revoke_git_gate_provisioned_keys() in teardown()
after stack.close() so revocation runs after containers stop and
failures propagate (not suppressed)
- smolmachines/launch.py: extract _teardown_smolmachines() helper that
catches stack.close() errors (warn + re-raise) then calls revocation;
same fatal-on-failure contract as docker backend
- test_manifest_git.py: 9 new cases for provisioned_key parsing
- test_deploy_key_provisioner.py (new): factory smoke tests
- test_contrib_gitea_deploy_key.py (new): create/delete/error/split tests
Closes#169
- Rename deploy_key → provisioned_key throughout (manifest key,
dataclass names, internal field names, test descriptions)
- Revocation failure at teardown now halts cleanup and propagates
loudly; a stranded key is a security concern that must surface
Introduces the design for short-lived deploy keys provisioned at spin-up
and revoked at teardown, plus the contrib package structure for
platform-specific provisioner implementations. First contrib provider
targets the Gitea deploy-key API.
Closes#169
Splits the 2103-line dashboard.py into two modules. Pure data
structures (QueuedProposal), discovery helpers (discover_pending,
discover_active_agents), derived-value helpers (_is_recent,
_approval_status, _format_agent_row, _detail_lines, etc.), and
argv-builder helpers (_build_split_pane_argv, _build_respawn_pane_argv,
_build_resume_argv_with_fallback, _agent_runtime_args) all move to
dashboard_model.py. The curses TUI, $EDITOR integration, tmux
subprocess flows, and action handlers (approve, reject,
operator_edit_routes, operator_edit_allowlist) remain in dashboard.py,
which re-imports everything from dashboard_model so existing callers and
tests are unaffected.
Adds tests/unit/test_dashboard_model.py covering _approval_status,
_proposed_payload_label, and _suffix_for_tool — three helpers that had
no prior coverage. All 894 unit tests pass.
Closes#158
Cover all six pathological character classes (single-quote,
double-quote, space, semicolon, newline, backtick) in both
upstream URL and name positions. Each case validates rendered
output via `sh -n` and asserts the original value is preserved
verbatim after shlex.quote encoding. Also add `sh -n` smoke
tests for the static pre-receive and access-hook scripts.
Use shlex.quote() on name and upstream_url in git_gate_render_entrypoint()
so special characters (single quotes, spaces, semicolons) cannot break or
inject into the generated sh script.
Add _GIT_NAME_RE validation in GitEntry.from_repos_entry() to restrict
repo names to [A-Za-z0-9._-]+, making the manifest the first line of
defence and shlex.quote() the belt-and-suspenders backstop.
Closes#155
- Rename _manifest_util.py → manifest_util.py (module isn't private)
- Rename _as_json_object → as_json_object, _parse_git_upstream → parse_git_upstream,
_parse_git_gate_config → parse_git_gate_config,
_validate_unique_git_names → validate_unique_git_names,
_validate_egress_routes → validate_egress_routes (none are private at
module boundary — underscore prefix was a carry-over from the old
monolithic manifest.py where everything lived in one namespace)
- Move _is_ip_literal → util.is_ip_literal (generic, belongs in the
top-level util module)
- Update all import sites across manifest_*.py, manifest_extends.py,
manifest_schema.py; existing callers of manifest.py are unaffected
All 867 unit tests pass.
Closes#157. Distributes the 1,026-line manifest.py across four
focused modules:
- _manifest_util.py: ManifestError + _as_json_object (shared base)
- manifest_git.py: GitEntry, GitUser, git-gate config helpers
- manifest_egress.py: EgressRoute, EgressConfig, PipelockRoutePolicy
- manifest_agent.py: AgentProvider, Agent
manifest.py is now the residual orchestration layer: Bottle, Manifest,
and re-exports of all public names so existing callers are unaffected.
All 867 unit tests pass.
Replace the bare `except BaseException: pass` in the `teardown` closure
with a `warn()` call that includes the container name and operation type
("compose-down"), so cleanup failures are visible in the log rather than
silently discarded. Non-blocking: the exception is consumed and teardown
continues, preserving the original error-propagation contract.
Add test_docker_launch_teardown.py to lock the new behaviour: it injects
a RuntimeError via a mocked `compose_down` callback and asserts the
WARNING message contains the container name and operation label.
PRD 0047 proposes replacing git.remotes with a top-level git-gate.repos
section and snake_case field names to make clear the config is
specifically for git-gate routing, not generic git or SSH config.
Closes#160
Previously when the access-hook returned non-zero, git-http would pipe
the hook's stderr into the 403 body sent back to the agent's git
client but never log it locally, so docker logs just showed
`"GET ... 403 -"` with no explanation. Operators had to shell into
the sidecar and re-run the hook by hand to find out why a clone was
being refused (e.g. upstream SSH unreachable, missing credentials).
Route the hook's stderr/stdout through the existing log_message
channel before sending the 403, one log line per output line so the
default request-log format stays readable. When the hook exits
non-zero with no output, log the exit code so the line is still
informative.

Shared fixtures build DockerBottlePlan and SmolmachinesBottlePlan from
identical git_gate_plan and egress_plan inputs and assert that both
backends render the same git gate lines (name → host:port) and egress
lines (host [auth:scheme] when authenticated, host alone otherwise).
Move git_gate_plan, egress_plan, supervise_plan, and agent_provision
from DockerBottlePlan and SmolmachinesBottlePlan into BottlePlan.
Replace the abstract print method with a single concrete implementation
that renders git gate entries as "name → upstream_host:upstream_port"
and egress routes with conditional "[auth:scheme]" annotations.
Both remote-addr and peer-addr args to the access hook are the same
TCP peer in this non-proxied stack. Extract a `peer` variable so the
intentional repetition is visible. Closes#148.
Closes#140. In restart_daemon, the old process's stdout pipe was never
explicitly closed after p.wait() returned, leaking the fd until the
supervisor object was GC'd. Similarly, when the watch loop converged
(all children dead), no pipe was closed. Both paths now call
p.stdout.close() immediately after the process is confirmed exited.
Tests enforce this with warnings.simplefilter("error", ResourceWarning)
in TestSupervisor.setUp.
Closes#139. Adds tests/unit/test_backend_parity.py which verifies that
DockerBottle and SmolmachinesBottle expose identical observable contracts
for agent_argv shape, env injection, exec user-switching, ExecResult
fields, and close() idempotency. All assertions use mock subprocess
layers — no live Docker daemon or VM required.
Before this change, int() on a non-numeric Content-Length raised an
unhandled ValueError, crashing the request handler. There was also no
upper bound on how much memory a POST body could consume.
After this change:
- Non-numeric or missing Content-Length returns HTTP 400.
- Negative Content-Length returns HTTP 400.
- Bodies declared larger than 1 MiB (_MAX_BODY_BYTES) return HTTP 413,
matching the cap already in supervise_server.py.
Closes#138
BottleMetadata gains a backend field (default ""). Docker prepare writes
"docker"; smolmachines prepare writes "smolmachines". read_metadata
deserialises it with "" as the backward-compatible default.
resume now passes metadata.backend to _launch_bottle so a preserved
smolmachines bottle is resumed on the right backend without requiring
BOT_BOTTLE_BACKEND to be set manually.
_bottle_for_slug now reads metadata.backend and constructs a
SmolmachinesBottle for smolmachines slugs instead of always defaulting
to DockerBottle. No-metadata slugs still fall back to Docker.
Closes#137
apply_capability_change is Docker-only teardown/apply code. Before this
change it was called regardless of backend, so approving a capability-block
proposal from a smolmachines agent would run Docker commands against a
slug that has no Docker container.
After this change approve() reads the bottle's metadata: if compose_project
is empty (the smolmachines indicator) it raises CapabilityApplyError with
a clear operator message before any teardown runs. Docker bottles (non-empty
compose_project) and unknown bottles (no metadata) fall through to the
existing Docker path unchanged.
Closes#136
Before this change smolmachines prepare.py spliced bottle.env directly
into guest_env, so ?prompt and ${HOST_VAR} entries reached the VM as
raw sentinels rather than being prompted or interpolated.
After this change prepare.py calls resolve_env(), matching the Docker
backend's contract. Forwarded (secret/interpolated) values still flow
through smolvm -e K=V argv — the known exposure gap documented in PRD
0038's open question.
Closes#135
die() raises Die(SystemExit), which implies a process exit. A timeout in
wait_exec_ready is a bringup failure — raising SmolvmError lets the caller
decide whether it's fatal, consistent with how machine_start failures propagate.
Decompose the 207-line launch() into six named helpers: _allocate_resources,
_mint_certs, _start_bundle, _discover_urls, _launch_vm, _init_vm. Each has
explicit inputs/outputs and is independently testable.
Replace time.sleep(1.5) with smolvm.wait_exec_ready(), which polls
`machine exec true` with exponential backoff. Exits as soon as the exec
channel is ready; dies loudly with a timeout message instead of silently
leaving the VM in an unknown state.
File-lock loopback_alias.allocate() with fcntl.flock(LOCK_EX) so concurrent
bottle launches can't race on docker state and claim the same alias.
Split launch() into named per-step helpers, replace time.sleep(1.5) with
a readiness poll, and file-lock loopback alias allocation. Addresses the
three actionable items from the #117 hotspot review of smolmachines/launch.py.
EgressRoute now extends egress_addon_core.Route, which holds the four
wire-visible fields (host, path_allowlist, auth_scheme, token_env).
EgressRoute adds only the three host-side fields (token_ref, roles,
tls_passthrough) that are never serialised to the sidecar.
_route_to_yaml_fields is typed as Route -> dict, making the host→wire
boundary explicit: only fields declared on the base class cross into the
YAML the addon reads.
Replace _merge_provider_route's five-case nested conditional with a flat
provisioned-wins merge: provider routes claim their hosts outright, manifest
routes for unclaimed hosts append unchanged. Token slot assignment moves to a
single _assign_token_slots pass over the merged list.
Add _route_to_yaml_fields as the single authoritative EgressRoute→YAML mapping,
eliminating the risk of EgressRoute and egress_addon_core.Route silently
drifting apart when new fields are added.
egress_manifest_routes is now a pure lifter with no slot assignment.
_merge_provider_route and _find_or_alloc_token_env are removed.
Tests updated: conflict-die case removed, upgrade-bare replaced with
provider-wins semantics, slot-assignment tests moved to TestSlotAssignment.
Expands scope to cover both remaining egress hotspot tasks from #117:
- Replaces the named-helper design with a flat provisioned-wins merge
(provider routes own their hosts; manifest fills gaps; no upgrade or
conflict-detection logic needed).
- Adds _route_to_yaml_fields as the single authoritative EgressRoute→Route
mapping to prevent silent type drift between host and addon.
- Notes that the mitmproxy pure-function split is already clean (decide +
is_git_push_request) and requires no structural change.
Revises the Design section to describe the implemented solution:
provisioned_env on AgentProvisionPlan rather than an intermediate
egress_resolve_token_values_with_provider function. Drops the old
sentinel/lazy-import design narrative.
Add `provisioned_env: dict[str, str]` to `AgentProvisionPlan`. When
`forward_host_credentials=True`, `agent_provision_plan` reads the host
Codex access token at prepare time and stores it under
`CODEX_HOST_CREDENTIAL_TOKEN_REF`. Both backends merge `provisioned_env`
over `os.environ` before calling `egress_resolve_token_values`, so the
token slot resolves like any other manifest-declared token ref.
Removes `egress_resolve_token_values_with_provider` and the sentinel
`continue` skip from `egress_resolve_token_values`. The function is now
fully generic — it neither knows nor cares about provider identity.
Extract egress_resolve_token_values_with_provider into bot_bottle/egress.py.
Both docker and smolmachines launch paths now call the shared function
instead of duplicating the forward_host_credentials / CODEX_HOST_CREDENTIAL_TOKEN_REF
resolution block.
Also fixes the host_env: object annotation on smolmachines._resolve_token_env
to the correct dict[str, str].
Closes#118.
Extracts the forward_host_credentials / CODEX_HOST_CREDENTIAL_TOKEN_REF
resolution block, currently copy-pasted in both docker and smolmachines
launch files, into a single shared function in bot_bottle/egress.py.
Closes#118. Found via #117 hotspot review.
EGRESS_ROLES, EGRESS_SINGLETON_ROLES, and PROVIDER_EGRESS_ROLES were
all empty frozensets after the codex_auth and claude_code_oauth roles
were removed. Delete the constants and all validation code that iterated
over them (the singleton-role loop and provider-role check in
_validate_egress_routes, the EGRESS_ROLES membership test in
EgressRoute.from_dict). EgressRoute.from_dict now rejects any role
string unconditionally; _validate_egress_routes loses its
agent_provider_template parameter entirely.

Both provider-owned roles are now gone. Provider auth routes are
provisioner-owned (claude: auth_token, codex: forward_host_credentials);
the role field and validation plumbing stay for future use but EGRESS_ROLES
is empty. Any manifest declaring a role now fails at parse time.

Mirrors the Codex pattern: Claude always gets a tls_passthrough route
for api.anthropic.com so user-set tokens aren't stripped by pipelock,
whether or not auth_token is declared. Auth injection (scheme + token_ref)
and the placeholder env only apply when auth_token is set.
Assisted-by: Claude Code
Operators can now declare:
agent_provider:
template: claude
auth_token: BOT_BOTTLE_CLAUDE_OAUTH_TOKEN
and the provisioner injects a provider-owned api.anthropic.com egress
route (Bearer, tls_passthrough) rather than requiring a manually
declared route with the former claude_code_oauth role.
Changes:
- Add auth_token field to AgentProvider; validate claude-only.
- Remove claude_code_oauth from EGRESS_ROLES / PROVIDER_EGRESS_ROLES.
Manifests that declare the role now fail at parse time with "unknown
role" — the provisioner owns the route.
- agent_provision_plan: replace manifest_egress_routes/has_provider_auth
with auth_token; Claude branch injects the api.anthropic.com route,
placeholder env, and nonessential-traffic flags when auth_token is set.
- Add hidden_env_names: frozenset[str] to AgentProvisionPlan; Claude
branch populates it with CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN.
- Remove auth_role from AgentProviderRuntime and placeholder_env_for().
- print_util.visible_agent_env_names: accept hidden_env_names from the
plan instead of dispatching on agent_provider_template.
- Both backends: drop manifest_egress_routes call, pass auth_token.
- PRD 0029 rescoped to cover both Codex and Claude provider auth.
Assisted-by: Claude Code
The has_provider_auth check and egress-placeholder injection were
duplicated in both backends. Move them into agent_provision_plan so
the provisioner owns that decision entirely:
- Replace has_provider_auth: bool param with manifest_egress_routes,
compute has_provider_auth internally from the route roles.
- Inject CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN=egress-placeholder inside the plan
when has_provider_auth, alongside the existing nonessential-traffic
vars. Backends no longer touch the placeholder env.
- Remove placeholder_env from AgentProviderRuntime; expose
placeholder_env_for() for print_util's hide-from-summary logic.

When forward_host_credentials is false, Codex bottles should still get
tls_passthrough routes for the OpenAI/ChatGPT hosts so that tokens a
user sets via `codex login` after launch aren't stripped by pipelock's
header DLP. Previously no routes were emitted, which would have blocked
those requests entirely once pipelock enforcement tightens.
Rename the test to reflect the new expected behavior.

manifest → agent_provider → egress → manifest created a cycle that
caused ImportError on any module import. With from __future__ import
annotations already present, Bottle is only needed at type-check time
(annotations are lazy strings under PEP 563).

Remove provider-specific branching from egress.py and pipelock.py.
Previously, `egress_routes_for_bottle` and `pipelock_effective_tls_passthrough`
both contained `template == "codex"` checks — the same pattern the rest
of the PR moved out of the backends.
Root cause: `EgressRoute` had no `tls_passthrough` field, so pipelock
couldn't learn from the synthesised Codex routes that they needed
passthrough. Fix:
- Add `EgressRoute.tls_passthrough: bool`. `egress_manifest_routes` lifts
the existing `pipelock.tls_passthrough` manifest flag here; provider
routes set it directly.
- Add `AgentProvisionPlan.egress_routes`. `agent_provision_plan` populates
it for Codex + `forward_host_credentials`, including `tls_passthrough=True`.
- Replace Codex-specific `egress_routes_for_bottle` logic with a generic
`_merge_provider_route` helper. Backends call `egress_routes_for_bottle(bottle,
plan.egress_routes)`; no provider type checks inside egress or pipelock.
- Rewrite `pipelock_effective_tls_passthrough` to read `route.tls_passthrough`
from the merged route set instead of re-implementing the provider check.
- Both backends now call `agent_provision_plan` before `Egress.prepare` and
`PipelockProxy.prepare`, threading `plan.egress_routes` to both. `has_provider_auth`
is derived from `egress_manifest_routes` (manifest routes only — provider
routes carry no auth roles, so the result is identical).
Assisted-by: Claude Code
Debugging a live codex smolmachines bottle surfaced three independent
failures past the sign-in screen; fix each so forward_host_credentials
works end to end:
- codex_auth: dummy access/id tokens now inherit the *real* host token's
exp instead of now+1h. Codex (0.135) refreshes when its local token's
JWT exp lapses; with a placeholder refresh_token that refresh fails and
drops to the sign-in screen. Aligning exp tracks the real token's life.
- prepare: set CODEX_CA_CERTIFICATE to the agent CA bundle for codex
bottles. Codex is rustls and ignores the system store / NODE_EXTRA_CA_
CERTS; it reads CODEX_CA_CERTIFICATE (fallback SSL_CERT_FILE) for custom
roots across HTTPS + wss, so it must be pointed at the egress MITM CA or
injection can't work without tls_passthrough.
- pipelock: auto tls_passthrough the Codex API hosts when
forward_host_credentials is on. Egress injects the bearer before
pipelock, whose header DLP then flags the JWT ("request header contains
secret") and the retry storm trips its 429. passthrough host-gates the
CONNECT but skips decrypt+rescan of egress-owned auth. The auto-added
routes aren't in bottle.egress.routes, so the hosts are added explicitly.

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.

Record that we considered auto-generating an agent's system prompt from
its bottle's egress/git config (so it would know its access up front)
but opted to keep prompts operator-authored: we may want to withhold
that information from the agent directly, and the agent can infer its
access on its own regardless.

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.

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.

- bottle.py:_PTY_RESIZE_SCRIPT docstring: strip the speculative
cwd-dependence explanation. The real reason to use absolute
path is just that the wrapper is self-contained; the original
rationale (tmux pane cwd) was a hypothesis we never confirmed
and wasn't load-bearing once we found the libkrun race.
- pty_resize.py:main: drop the long comment duplicating

daemon=True.

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.

stdin=DEVNULL fix. Re-instrument to capture the next failure mode

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.

User reports launch crashing only inside tmux (works outside).
The wrapper itself runs fine in standalone tmux repros, so the
break is in some interaction we can't see — curses eats stderr,
default tmux remain-on-exit is off, and the pane closes before
the operator can read anything.
Add an always-on per-pid log at ~/.claude-bottle/pty_resize.log:
- start record: argv, cwd, PATH, TMUX status
- sync record: window size observed
- child pid + exit rc
- any KeyboardInterrupt forwarding
- Popen failure traceback if it dies
Append-mode, small overhead, easy to grep + share.
Removable (along with the wrapper itself) once smolvm forwards
SIGWINCH natively.

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'

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.

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.

claude's HTTPS_PROXY was catching the supervise MCP URL
(`http://<alias>:<port>/`) because NO_PROXY was hardcoded to
`localhost,127.0.0.1` and didn't include the per-bottle
loopback alias. Claude proxied the MCP POST through egress,
egress had no route for the alias, and the connection failed
— `/mcp` showed "supervise · ✘ failed" inside the bottle.
Append the loopback alias to NO_PROXY in launch.py so direct
MCP calls bypass the proxy. The git-gate URL uses `git://`,
which proxies don't touch, so this only affects MCP / HTTP
paths to the bundle.

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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
PR #76 originally claimed the per-bottle alias scoping closed
gitea#75 ("agent can reach host loopback"). Verified
empirically that's not actually true: `smolvm 0.8.0 machine
create --from <smolmachine> --net --allow-cidr X/32` silently
drops the allowlist (`agent.config.json` shows `allowed_cidrs:
null`, and the running VM reaches all of `127.0.0.0/8`
regardless).
So the alias-allocation + alias-bind infrastructure is correct
pre-work, but the actual TSI enforcement is blocked on an
upstream smolvm bug. README + PRD 0023 + the module docstring
get reworded to say so plainly. gitea#75 stays open.
Workarounds tried (all dead-ends):
- `machine update --allow-cidr` doesn't exist
- stop-edit-`agent.config.json`-restart fails (smolvm removes
the file on stop)
- `--smolfile` is mutually exclusive with `--from`
- `--image localhost:<port>/...` fails because smolvm's agent
process can't reach host loopback during pull
When upstream lands a fix, our existing code (alias allocation,
port-bind, --allow-cidr in launch) will scope correctly without
further changes.

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`.

Final PRD 0023 chunk. The PRD 0022 attack suite was already
backend-agnostic — it goes through get_bottle_backend(), so the
right dispatch happens based on CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND. Two
cleanups to make it actually run cleanly under
CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND=smolmachines:
- setUpClass raises unittest.SkipTest with a useful message when
CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND=smolmachines but smolvm isn't on PATH, or
when the host isn't macOS (libkrun + TSI single-IP allowlist is
macOS-only in v1). Without this, the test would die deep inside
backend.prepare's smolmachines_preflight rather than skipping.
- test_5_readme_push_blocked switches from a hardcoded
`git://git-gate/...` remote URL (only resolvable on docker via
the bundle's short alias) to the bottle's declared upstream URL
(`ssh://git@unreachable.invalid:22/throwaway.git`). The agent's
~/.gitconfig insteadOf rewrite — set up by provision_git on both
backends — transparently redirects to the gate, so the same test
exercises docker's `git://git-gate/...` and smolmachines's
`git://<bundle_ip>:9418/...` URLs without branching on backend.
README gets a "Backend selection" subsection under Quickstart
documenting CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND, the macOS-only v1 scope for
smolmachines, and the `curl -sSL .../install.sh | sh` install
prerequisite — per PRD 0023's acceptance criteria.

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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
smolvm's pack process remaps OCI-layer ownership to the host
invoker's uid for *every* directory, not just /home/node — so
/tmp lands as `0755 501:dialout` instead of the standard
`1777 root:root`. Non-root processes can't create per-uid
scratch dirs in there. Claude-code's first Bash tool call fails
with `EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/tmp/claude-1000'`.
Same workaround folded into the existing perms-repair sh -c:
`chown root:root /tmp /var/tmp && chmod 1777 /tmp /var/tmp` next
to the /home/node chown. One machine_exec round trip total.

PR #74's Docker-Desktop pivot widened the smolmachines TSI
allowlist from `<bundle-ip>/32` to `127.0.0.1/32` (TSI can't
filter by port, and docker bridge IPs aren't reachable from
macOS networking). The agent VM can therefore reach any service
on macOS's loopback while the bottle is running — not just the
bundle's published ports.
README gets a "Smolmachines backend" subsection under Quickstart
spelling this out as a known v1 limitation. PRD 0023 grows a new
open question #8 with the proposed v2 fix (per-bottle loopback
alias + TSI allowlist scoped to that /32, via sudo
`ifconfig lo0 alias`).

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.

Two issues kept claude's TUI from drawing after launch:
1. smolvm pack remaps OCI-layer ownership to the host invoker's
uid (501 on macOS) instead of preserving the image's
USER node (uid 1000). /home/node ends up owned by some uid
that doesn't exist in the VM, so when claude runs as node it
can't appendFileSync to ~/.claude.json on startup — fails
with ENOENT and the TUI hangs. Fix: chown -R node:node
/home/node after machine_start, before provision.
2. smolvm machine_create -e sets env on PID 1 but it doesn't
propagate to fresh exec process trees (verified empirically:
`smolvm machine exec -- printenv` shows none of the
machine_create env vars). Claude was running with no
HTTPS_PROXY / CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN / NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS,
so even the auth-validation step bailed silently. Fix:
thread `guest_env` through to the SmolmachinesBottle handle
and re-pass every entry via `-e K=V` on every machine_exec
call (interactive claude and shell exec both).
Also fills in the same `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN=egress-
placeholder` + telemetry-off env the docker backend's
forwarded_env carries, plus the NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS /
SSL_CERT_FILE / REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE trust trio.
Verified end-to-end on Docker Desktop / macOS: claude's TUI
renders cleanly with the bypass-permissions banner.

Interactive claude session hung silently after
`attaching interactive claude session...` — `runuser -l` invokes
a login shell that triggers PAM session setup / /etc/profile
sourcing, and the minimal Debian agent VM doesn't have the PAM
config files for that to complete cleanly. claude never got to
draw its TUI.
Switch UID via plain `runuser -u <user> --` (no `-l`) and inject
HOME / USER through `smolvm machine exec -e` so the child
process sees them. Avoids login-shell wiring entirely. Same
pattern in `exec_claude` and `exec(script)`.
`_HOME_FOR` maps the two users the codebase currently asks for
(`node`, `root`); anything else falls back to `/home/<user>`.

Promote the user-switch from a hardcoded `node` to a keyword arg
so callers can opt into root (or any other user) when needed.
Default stays `node` — matches the docker image's USER and the
smolmachines runuser default.
Lifts the change through the base ABC, docker, and smolmachines
backends:
- Base: `def exec(self, script, *, user="node")`.
- Docker: adds `-u <user>` to `docker exec` (no-op when user is
node, the image's default).
- Smolmachines: `runuser -l <user> -c <script>` — `runuser -l
root` is the trivial no-op form when the caller asked for root.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`smolvm machine exec` runs commands as root in the VM, but the
agent image's USER is `node`. claude-code refuses
`--dangerously-skip-permissions` when invoked as root, killing
the interactive session right after `attaching interactive claude
session...`:
--dangerously-skip-permissions cannot be used with root/sudo
privileges for security reasons
Wrap both `exec_claude` and `exec(script)` in
`runuser -l node -c ...` so commands run as the node user with
node's $HOME / $USER (login shell). The docker backend gets
this behavior for free via the image's USER directive; this
restores parity.
shlex-quote each claude argv element when stitching the runuser
-c shell command so paths / flags with shell-special chars
survive the parse.

`SmolmachinesBottlePlan.print` iterated over
`bottle.egress.routes` (the manifest's capitalized-attribute form
on `manifest.EgressRoute`) but accessed `r.host` (lowercase).
Worked when no egress routes were declared; AttributeError
("EgressRoute has no attribute 'host'") on the first bottle with
a route.
Switch to `self.egress_plan.routes` — the resolved plan-level
EgressRoute (lowercase `host`), same source the docker backend's
print uses.

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

`./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.

Last of the per-sidecar legacy names. `_per_bottle_container_names`
used to list the four pre-bundle sidecars (cred-proxy, pipelock,
git-gate, supervise) so capability-apply's teardown would force-rm
them on remediation. None of those containers exist anymore — the
four daemons run in the sidecar bundle (PRD 0024), so the list
collapses to the agent + the bundle.
Integration test follows: the fake supervise-sidecar setup, which
existed to give teardown an extra container to clean up, switches
to a fake sidecar bundle with the current name.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Supervise runs inside the sidecar bundle (PRD 0024), not in its own
container. The `claude-bottle-supervise-<slug>` per-sidecar name only
existed as a docker-network alias on the bundle so legacy code paths
that referenced the old name would still resolve. Nothing inside the
project relies on that resolution anymore — the short `supervise`
alias is the one all consumers use — so the legacy long-form is dead.
Drops the function entirely, plus its registration as a network alias
and as an orphan probe in prepare.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The four sidecar prepare-time helpers (PipelockProxy, Egress, GitGate,
Supervise) had docker-flavored subclasses that existed only as
instantiation shims for ABCs that already had no abstract methods.
PipelockProxy.prepare() reached for class-level CA path constants
that were only defined on the docker subclass — so smolmachines had
to import DockerPipelockProxy to render pipelock yaml, reaching
across the backend boundary for what's actually a platform-neutral
operation.
This moves the universal in-container CA paths
(PIPELOCK_CA_CERT_IN_CONTAINER / PIPELOCK_CA_KEY_IN_CONTAINER) to
claude_bottle/pipelock.py, drops the class-attr indirection on the
ABC, and deletes the four empty docker subclasses. Both backends
now instantiate the ABCs directly; the docker-side modules keep
the docker-flavored helpers (image pin, container naming, host CA
mint) and re-export the moved pipelock constants for compat.

Bundle daemons (pipelock, egress, optionally git-gate + supervise)
now actually start with their config files bind-mounted from the
inner Plans the docker backend already produces. Chunks 2d + 3
ran with daemons_csv="" so the bundle's init supervisor idled;
chunk 4b wires up the real path: agent → pipelock → egress →
internet (when routes declared) is now functional, modulo agent-
image gaps (claude-code / TLS-trust-store / git in the guest)
that chunk 4c addresses.
bottle_plan.py — added the four inner Plan fields:
proxy_plan: PipelockProxyPlan
git_gate_plan: GitGatePlan
egress_plan: EgressPlan
supervise_plan: SupervisePlan | None
Same shape the docker backend's plan uses. Docker-network-only
fields (internal_network, egress_network) stay at dataclass
defaults — the smolmachines bundle is on a per-bottle bridge
with a pinned IP, not docker's --internal + egress topology.
prepare.py — instantiates DockerPipelockProxy / DockerEgress /
DockerGitGate / DockerSupervise and calls their .prepare()
methods to write the per-bottle config files (pipelock.yaml,
routes.yaml, git-gate entrypoint/hooks, supervise queue dir)
under the per-bottle state dir. (The "Docker" prefix on the
class names is a misnomer here — .prepare() is platform-neutral,
inherited from each sidecar's ABC. A future cleanup could factor
the prepare logic out of the docker subpackage.)
launch.py — major rewrite:
- pipelock_tls_init at launch (always); egress_tls_init only
when the bottle declares routes (otherwise the CA files
aren't bind-mounted and openssl runs would be wasted).
- Inner Plans updated in place with launch-time CA paths +
EGRESS_UPSTREAM_PROXY = http://127.0.0.1:8888 (egress's
upstream is pipelock on the bundle's own loopback; same
container's network namespace).
- BundleLaunchSpec env + volumes built from the inner Plans:
pipelock.yaml + CA + key (always); egress routes + CAs +
upstream env + token-slot bare names (when routes); git-gate
entrypoint + hooks + per-upstream identity files (when
upstreams); supervise queue dir + env (when enabled).
- daemons_csv = ["egress", "pipelock"] + ["git-gate"] (if
upstreams) + ["supervise"] (if enabled).
- Token env values resolved from host env via
`egress_resolve_token_values` and threaded into the
docker-run subprocess env (bare-name -e entries in spec
inherit from there — values never land on argv).
Tests:
- 552 unit passing (no new unit cases; fixture updated to
populate the new plan fields).
- 5 integration cases passing locally (Darwin + smolvm + docker
+ not GITEA_ACTIONS):
* test_smoke_exec_echo — still works.
* test_localhost_reach_probe — host loopback still refused.
* test_egress_port_bypass_probe — <bundle-ip>:9099 still
refused, NOW WITH EGRESS ACTUALLY RUNNING (chunk 3's
127.0.0.1 bind-address is doing its job).
* test_prompt_file_lands_in_guest — still works.
* test_pipelock_answers_on_bundle_ip — NEW. From inside the
guest, wget to <bundle-ip>:8888 gets an HTTP response
(not "connection refused") — proves pipelock is actually
listening and the bind-mount + CA generation path works.
What's left in chunk 4:
- 4c: agent-image-conversion (claude-code + git + curl +
ca-certificates in the guest). Chunk 2d's alpine placeholder
stays for now.
- 4d: provision_ca + provision_git + provision_supervise once
the agent image has the required tools.

Addresses PR #69 review comment: `del plan, target` was just a
silence-the-unused-arg gesture but reads oddly for a stub. `pass`
is the standard "this is a stub" sentinel.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
First slice of chunk 4: implement the two provisioning methods
that don't depend on agent-image tooling beyond `cp` and
`mkdir`. provision_ca / provision_git / provision_supervise
land once the agent-image gap is solved (chunk 4b+) — they need
update-ca-certificates, git, and the claude binary respectively,
none of which the chunk-2d alpine placeholder provides.
What this PR ships:
- `claude_bottle/backend/smolmachines/provision/` subpackage
with `prompt.py` + `skills.py`. Each routes through
`smolvm.machine_cp` / `machine_exec`. provision_prompt mirrors
the docker contract (file always copied; return value drives
--append-system-prompt-file iff the agent has a non-empty
prompt). provision_skills mkdir + cp per skill, matching
the docker backend's loop.
- prepare.py now writes the prompt file under
agent_state_dir(slug) with the agent's `prompt` body, mode
0o600. The in-guest path is `/root/.claude-bottle-prompt.txt`
(alpine has no `node` user; will become `/home/node/...` once
the real claude-bottle image lands).
- launch.py calls `provision(plan, machine_name)` after
machine_start. The returned prompt path threads to
SmolmachinesBottle so exec_claude can add
--append-system-prompt-file when the agent has a prompt.
- backend.py: provision_prompt / provision_skills now real;
provision_git is a deliberate stub (waiting on the git-gate
inner Plan + git in the agent image). provision_supervise
stays the chunk-2d stub.
Tests:
- 7 new unit cases (test_smolmachines_provision.py): argv
shape (mocked smolvm.machine_cp / .machine_exec),
prompt return-value contract, no-op-with-no-skills,
CLAUDE_BOTTLE_GUEST_SKILLS_DIR override, fail-on-missing-skill.
- 1 new integration case in test_smolmachines_launch.py:
end-to-end verification that the prompt file lands in the
alpine guest at /root/.claude-bottle-prompt.txt with the
expected content (via `bottle.exec("cat ...")`). The smoke +
the two TSI probes stay green.
552 unit + 4 integration (Darwin+smolvm+docker gated) passing.
What's left in chunk 4:
- 4b: thread the inner Plans (PipelockProxyPlan / EgressPlan /
GitGatePlan / SupervisePlan) through prepare + launch so the
bundle daemons actually run (currently daemons_csv="").
- 4c: the agent-image-conversion gap — get claude-code + git +
curl + ca-certificates into the guest image (build a
.smolmachine via `pack create --from-vm` after manual setup,
or push the docker image to a registry smolvm can pull).
- 4d: provision_ca + provision_git + provision_supervise once
4b + 4c land.

Egress's bind address is now env-driven via EGRESS_LISTEN_HOST.
Unset → mitmdump's default (all interfaces) — the docker
backend's behavior, unchanged. Set to `127.0.0.1` → mitmdump
binds localhost only.
The smolmachines launch sets EGRESS_LISTEN_HOST=127.0.0.1 in
the bundle's env unconditionally. TSI's allowlist is
`<bundle-ip>/32` (IP-only, not port-granular), which would
otherwise let the agent dial `<bundle-ip>:9099` and bypass
pipelock's DLP by talking to egress directly. Binding egress
to localhost inside the bundle closes that gap at the socket
level — the agent still reaches the IP (TSI permits it) but
egress refuses the connect because it's not listening on the
docker bridge interface.
The docker backend doesn't set the env var because its agent
dials egress directly via the docker network alias — egress
MUST be reachable from outside the bundle there. The
asymmetry is documented in the entrypoint script's comment.
Changes:
- egress_entrypoint.sh: read EGRESS_LISTEN_HOST, conditionally
pass `--listen-host <host>` to mitmdump.
- smolmachines/launch.py: BundleLaunchSpec.environment now
includes `EGRESS_LISTEN_HOST=127.0.0.1`.
- New unit tests (5): the entrypoint script's argv shape under
various env combinations, verified via a fake mitmdump shim
that prints its argv.
545 unit + 3 integration tests passing. The egress-port-bypass
probe from chunk 2d still passes (chunk 2d ran with daemons_csv=""
so no egress was up; chunk 3 makes the probe preserve its
property once egress IS up in chunk 4).

End-to-end launch flow for the smolmachines backend. Brings up
the per-bottle docker bridge + sidecar bundle, creates and
starts the smolvm guest pointed at the bundle's pinned IP via
TSI's `--allow-cidr <bundle-ip>/32`, yields a SmolmachinesBottle
handle that routes exec/cp through `smolvm machine exec / cp`,
tears everything down on context exit.
launch.py:
- ExitStack-managed: create_bundle_network → start_bundle →
machine_create → machine_start (each registered for reverse
teardown).
- daemons_csv="" for chunk 2d — bundle init logs "no daemons
selected" and idles. Real daemon bringup with inner-Plan-driven
env + volumes lands in chunk 4.
bottle.py:
- SmolmachinesBottle.exec → smolvm.machine_exec (captured).
- SmolmachinesBottle.exec_claude → direct subprocess.run with
inherited TTY for interactive sessions.
- SmolmachinesBottle.cp_in → smolvm.machine_cp.
Architecture pivots forced by smolvm 0.8.0's CLI shape:
1. `--from <smolmachine>` and `--smolfile <toml>` are MUTUALLY
EXCLUSIVE in smolvm 0.8.0. We need --from to avoid the
registry-pull race that bit us on machine_start (libkrun
agent's network attempt got refused by macOS with
"connect: permission denied" on IPv6). So Smolfile is dropped
entirely; per-bottle env + allow_cidrs flow as CLI flags
(`--allow-cidr CIDR`, `-e K=V`) directly to machine_create.
2. `smolvm pack create --image` doesn't pull from the local
docker daemon — only OCI registries via crane. The real
claude-bottle:latest image lives in the local docker daemon
and isn't reachable that way. Chunk 2d ships with an alpine
placeholder; the agent-image-conversion gap belongs to
chunk 4 (push the image to a registry, or smolvm grows a
docker-daemon transport).
Other changes:
- machine_create grew `image=` / `from_path=` / `allow_cidrs=`
/ `env=` kwargs; smolfile= dropped.
- bottle_plan: smolfile_path → agent_from_path + guest_env.
- prepare: pack_create against `alpine:latest`, cached under
~/.cache/claude-bottle/smolmachines/ keyed by image ref.
- Deleted smolfile.py + test_smolfile.py (dead code now).
Tests:
- Unit: 540 passing (smolvm wrapper grew 4 new flag forms; one
test renamed to reflect --from + --allow-cidr + -e combo).
- Integration: 3 new cases in tests/integration/
test_smolmachines_launch.py, gated on Darwin + smolvm on PATH
+ docker + not GITEA_ACTIONS:
* smoke: bottle.exec("echo hello-from-vm") round-trips with
the correct stdout + returncode.
* localhost-reach probe: agent dials 127.0.0.1:9 → connect
refused (TSI's <bundle-ip>/32 allowlist doesn't include
loopback). The regression test for the gap the PRD design
pivot was about.
* egress-port-bypass probe: agent dials <bundle-ip>:9099
(egress's port) → connect refused. Chunk 2d has no
daemons running so nothing's listening anyway; chunk 3
will preserve this property once egress is up but bound
to 127.0.0.1 inside the bundle.
End-to-end smoke + both probes green locally on macOS with
smolvm 0.8.0.

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.

claude_bottle/backend/smolmachines/smolvm.py — one thin Python
function per smolvm CLI subcommand the launch flow needs:
- pack_create(image, output) → smolvm pack create
- machine_create(name, from_path,
smolfile) → smolvm machine create
- machine_start(name) → smolvm machine start
- machine_stop(name) → smolvm machine stop
- machine_delete(name) → smolvm machine delete -f
- machine_exec(name, argv, env,
workdir, timeout) → smolvm machine exec
- machine_cp(src, dst) → smolvm machine cp
- is_available() → shutil.which check
The wrapper hides the CLI's inconsistent name-flag style
(positional NAME on create/delete, --name on start/stop/exec/
status) behind a uniform `name=` kwarg.
Two return shapes:
- SmolvmRunResult (returncode + stdout + stderr) from
machine_exec, because callers care about the in-VM
command's exit code.
- Raises SmolvmError on non-zero for all other commands;
failure to create/start/stop a VM is fatal to the launch
flow, not branched on.
Tests:
- 15 unit cases mocking subprocess.run, covering argv shape
per subcommand (the --name vs positional inconsistency
locked down), SmolvmError on non-zero for non-exec paths,
SmolvmRunResult passthrough on exec, empty-path cp no-op.
- 2 integration cases against the real smolvm binary
(gated on Darwin + smolvm on PATH + not GITEA_ACTIONS):
smolvm --help responds, machine ls --json parses as a
list (the contract chunk 4's list_active will consume).
531 unit tests passing. Real-smolvm smoke green locally.
Bundle bringup + launch wiring + the localhost-reach /
egress-port-bypass probes land in chunks 2c + 2d.

First sub-PR of chunk 2: rewrite the renderer chunk 1 shipped to
match smolvm 0.8.0's actual Smolfile shape, delete the dead
gvproxy renderer + its tests, simplify the prepare flow now that
there's no gvproxy socket + no loopback-port allocation.
Smolfile renderer:
- Old shape (under the abandoned gvproxy design): name = ...,
command = [...], [[net]] attachment = "unixgram",
socket = "...".
- New shape (smolvm 0.8.0): env = [...] (sorted K=V pairs),
[network] allow_cidrs = ["<bundle-ip>/32"]. Nothing else.
image / entrypoint / cmd come from the .smolmachine artifact
built in chunk 2b; cpus / memory left at smolvm defaults.
- Tests assert no leakage of TSI's --outbound-localhost-only or
the old gvproxy/unixgram keys.
util.py:
- smolmachines_gvproxy_subnet → smolmachines_bundle_subnet,
returning (subnet, gateway, bundle_ip). bundle_ip is always
at .2 (gateway .1); subnet is /24, third octet derived from
the slug hash, skipping the docker-default 17 to avoid the
common 192.168.17.x collision.
- allocate_loopback_port: deleted. The bundle gets a pinned
docker IP now; the agent dials that IP directly through TSI.
- smolmachines_preflight: dropped the gvproxy check; only
smolvm is required.
prepare.py:
- Drops the gvproxy.yaml render + the loopback port allocation
+ the gvproxy_socket field on the plan.
- Derives subnet / gateway / bundle_ip from the slug and
populates the new SmolmachinesBottlePlan fields.
- Agent env now uses IP-literal URLs (http://<bundle-ip>:8888
etc) since the guest will have no DNS resolver inside TSI's
allowlist.
bottle_plan.py:
- Old fields: gvproxy_config_path, gvproxy_socket,
gvproxy_subnet, gvproxy_gateway, host_port_map.
- New fields: bundle_subnet, bundle_gateway, bundle_ip,
smolfile_path. (smolmachine artifact path lands in chunk 2b.)
Net: -410 lines. Full unit suite: 516 passing.
The VM lifecycle + bundle bringup + launch wiring + smoke tests
land in chunk 2b.

Chunk-1's empirical spike against smolvm 0.8.0 contradicted the
research note that motivated the gvproxy network design: smolvm
exposes no virtio-net-over-unixgram attachment. The first draft's
"why gvproxy, not TSI" argument turns out to apply only to
`--outbound-localhost-only`, not to TSI generally.
New design:
- Bundle (PRD 0024) runs on a dedicated per-bottle docker bridge
with a pinned IP. Smolfile sets `[network] allow_cidrs =
["<bundle-ip>/32"]` and nothing else. Agent can reach the bundle
and nothing else — host loopback, LAN, public internet directly
are all refused at the VMM (TSI) layer.
- Bind-address mitigation: egress binds 127.0.0.1:9099 inside the
bundle (pipelock-internal); pipelock / git-gate / supervise
bind 0.0.0.0 so the agent (across the TSI allowlist) can reach
them. This is the port-granularity TSI's IP-only allowlist
doesn't provide.
- Smolfile renderer rewritten in chunk 2 to smolvm 0.8.0's actual
schema (image / entrypoint / cmd / env / [network] allow_cidrs).
The chunk-1 renderer (name= / [[net]]= under the gvproxy
design) emits the wrong shape and will be replaced.
- Drop gvproxy + VZFileHandleNetworkDeviceAttachment + the
PyObjC fallback. Backend layout loses gvproxy_config.py,
gvproxy.py, vfkit_attach.py.
- Acceptance plan adds an egress-port-bypass probe in addition
to the localhost-reach probe.
- Chunks reshape: chunk 1 stays (renderer rewrite is part of
chunk 2's cost); chunk 2 covers VM lifecycle + bundle + new
Smolfile renderer; chunk 3 is the bundle bind-address change;
chunks 4-5 unchanged in spirit.

Addresses PR #62 review comments on
claude_bottle/backend/smolmachines/bottle_plan.py:
- Lift the multi-value label printer (was a nested helper inside
DockerBottlePlan.print) into a new module
claude_bottle/backend/print_util.py:print_multi. Both backends
use it for env / skills / git / egress lines.
- Strip the three smolmachines-preflight lines the review flagged:
the gvproxy subnet line, the smolfile path line, and the
gvproxy-config path line. Internal detail — operators see the
agent / env / skills / bottle / git / egress that already
matter on the docker side, and nothing else.
- Add `git → upstream` to the smolmachines git output to match
what's useful at preflight time (the docker version shows
upstream_host:port; this is similar shape).
Leaves the slug=spec.identity-or-mint pattern alone pending a
reply on PR comment #432 — the docker backend uses the same
pattern to preserve identity across `resume`, so dropping it
would silently break the resume path once smolmachines launch
lands.

Ships the smolmachines backend's prepare side: subpackage layout,
`_BACKENDS` registration under "smolmachines", preflight check
for `smolvm` + `gvproxy` on PATH, and the two config-file
renderers (Smolfile TOML + gvproxy YAML). Launch raises
NotImplementedError until chunk 2.
New module layout (mirrors backend/docker/):
claude_bottle/backend/smolmachines/
__init__.py re-exports SmolmachinesBottleBackend
backend.py SmolmachinesBottleBackend façade
bottle.py SmolmachinesBottle stub (NotImpl until ch2)
bottle_plan.py SmolmachinesBottlePlan + .print()
bottle_cleanup_plan.py SmolmachinesBottleCleanupPlan stub
prepare.py resolve_plan: writes both config files
smolfile.py TOML renderer (stdlib, no tomli_w dep)
gvproxy_config.py YAML renderer (same shape as pipelock_yaml)
util.py preflight + per-slug subnet + loopback port
The renderers are pure functions. `resolve_plan` runs the
preflight, allocates one host-side loopback port per active
sidecar (pipelock always; git-gate / supervise conditional),
derives a per-slug gvproxy subnet (hash-mod-254, skipping the
docker-default 17), and writes:
- <stage>/gvproxy.yaml: subnet + DNS rule resolving only
`proxy.internal` + port_forwards (one per active sidecar).
- <stage>/smolfile.toml: guest command/env + virtio-net device
backed by gvproxy's unixgram socket. No TSI flags — see
PRD 0023 "Why gvproxy, not TSI".
The agent's HTTPS_PROXY etc. point at `proxy.internal:<gateway-
port>` so the guest dials through gvproxy. gvproxy resolves only
`proxy.internal` → the gateway IP, and forwards exactly the
listed ports to the host-side sidecar bundle (PRD 0024); every
other destination — host LAN, host loopback, public internet
directly — is unreachable by construction.
29 new unit tests covering renderer correctness, subnet
derivation stability + collision-avoidance, loopback port
allocation, and preflight error paths. Full unit suite: 532
passing.

`apply_allowlist_change` used `docker restart <bundle>` to make
pipelock reload, which bounced ALL four daemons — including
supervise, whose MCP socket the agent's claude-code client had
open. That dropped the connection. A second apply works because
supervise has come back up by then.
Fix: per-daemon restart via SIGUSR1.
- New `_Supervisor.restart_daemon(name)` terminates one named
child and spawns a replacement in place. Other daemons keep
running.
- main() wires SIGUSR1 → `restart_daemon("pipelock")`. Pipelock
has no in-process reload, so this is its analog of egress's
SIGHUP-reload-addon path. Pipelock is the only daemon that
currently needs hot-config reload via restart; if others
acquire the need, add a new signal.
- `apply_allowlist_change` now `docker kill --signal USR1
<bundle>` instead of `docker restart`. Supervise / egress /
git-gate keep running across the apply.
Tests:
- New `_Supervisor.restart_daemon` cases: replaces in place
(different pid post-restart, sibling daemon unchanged),
unknown name is a no-op, restart-during-shutdown is a no-op.
- `test_pipelock_apply` rewritten to bring up the bundle image
with `CLAUDE_BOTTLE_SIDECAR_DAEMONS=pipelock` so the
supervisor is PID 1 and handles SIGUSR1. The previous
standalone-pipelock setup wouldn't survive SIGUSR1 (pipelock
default disposition is terminate). Test builds the bundle
image in setUpClass (cached layers make repeat runs fast).
531 tests passing locally (unit + integration).

Two bugs surfaced when applying an egress route change:
1. egress_apply.py still targeted claude-bottle-egress-<slug> —
the legacy per-sidecar container that no longer exists (it's
a docker-network alias on the bundle now). Switched it to
sidecar_bundle_container_name(slug), matching the chunk-5
fix already made to pipelock_apply.py.
2. `docker kill --signal HUP <bundle>` lands SIGHUP on the
supervisor (PID 1 in the bundle), which previously had no
SIGHUP handler — the signal was ignored. Added
`_Supervisor.forward_signal(sig, daemon_name)` and a SIGHUP
handler in main() that forwards to the egress daemon so
mitmdump's addon reload still works under the bundle.
Tests:
- New _Supervisor.forward_signal cases: forwards to the named
child (Python subprocess as the SIGHUP target — bash trap +
stdout=PIPE deferral interferes with the production-style
test); unknown-daemon name is a no-op.
Stale-reference cleanup (separate issue surfaced while looking
at this):
- claude_bottle/{egress,git_gate,egress_addon,
egress_addon_core,supervise_server}.py: Dockerfile.egress /
Dockerfile.git-gate / Dockerfile.supervise references updated
to Dockerfile.sidecars (the old per-sidecar Dockerfiles were
deleted in PRD 0024 chunk 5).
- tests/README.md: dropped the entry for
test_pipelock_sidecar_smoke (deleted in chunk 3) and added
the new bundle integration tests.
- git_gate.py: stale `DockerGitGate.start via docker cp`
reference (the method was deleted in chunk 3) rewritten to
the bind-mount path the renderer uses now.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Three deliverables:
1. Rewrite test_pipelock_apply bringup with a direct `docker run`.
Replaces the .start-based bringup deleted in chunk 3. Stages
the yaml + CAs to the real pipelock_state_dir so the bind-
mount target matches what apply_allowlist_change writes to —
the legacy .start path did this implicitly because it lived
inside the production flow; the new bringup needs to be
explicit about the path. All 4 cases pass.
2. New tests/integration/test_sidecar_bundle_compose.py: end-
to-end smoke with CLAUDE_BOTTLE_SIDECAR_BUNDLE=1. Brings up
a real bottle via the compose path and verifies the agent
can reach pipelock + supervise through the bundle's legacy
aliases (no agent-side config changes between flag positions).
Skipped under act_runner — multi-stage build + bind mounts.
3. Two bundle-path bugs surfaced and fixed while running PRD
0022 with the flag on:
- egress_entrypoint.sh: add `--set confdir=/home/mitmproxy/
.mitmproxy` so mitmdump finds the bind-mounted CA. The
legacy Dockerfile.egress runs as user mitmproxy (~mitmproxy
resolves correctly); the bundle runs as root and otherwise
would look in /root/.mitmproxy/ and mint a NEW CA the agent
doesn't trust. Symptom: PRD 0022 attack-3 curl failed with
"unable to get local issuer certificate".
- sidecar_init.py: add `--listen 0.0.0.0:8888` to pipelock's
argv. Without it pipelock defaults to 127.0.0.1, so the
in-bundle egress's upstream connect to the
`claude-bottle-pipelock-<slug>` alias arrives over the
docker network and gets refused. The legacy renderer
passed this flag verbatim; the bundle dropped it. Symptom:
egress returned HTTP 502 with "Connect call failed
('172.x.x.x', 8888)".
PRD 0022's 5-attack sandbox-escape suite now passes with the
bundle flag on AND off.
Test status:
- Unit: 533 passing.
- Integration: 9 passing locally with flag off, 5 passing with
flag on. Bundle compose smoke + PRD 0022 sandbox-escape both
green under CLAUDE_BOTTLE_SIDECAR_BUNDLE=1.

Compose-up has owned per-container lifecycle since PRD 0018 ch3;
the .start() / .stop() methods on DockerPipelockProxy /
DockerEgress / DockerGitGate / DockerSupervise (and their
abstractmethod declarations in the four base ABCs) were already
documented as vestigial. With the bundle path in flight
(PRD 0024 ch2), they are truly dead — collapse to nothing.
Changes:
- Removed start/stop methods from the four DockerSidecar
classes. Plan dataclasses, image/path constants,
container-name helpers, and the .prepare() methods all stay
(the renderer + apply path still need them).
- Removed the matching @abstractmethod declarations in the
base ABCs so concrete subclasses don't have to stub them.
- launch.launch() and prepare.resolve_plan() no longer take
proxy/git_gate/egress/supervise instance parameters. backend.py
loses the four instance attributes it threaded through.
prepare.resolve_plan() instantiates the four classes itself
to call their .prepare() methods.
- Deleted four integration tests that only exercised the
removed lifecycle: test_pipelock_sidecar_smoke,
test_supervise_sidecar, test_git_gate_sidecar,
test_git_gate_mirror.
- Dropped the .stop-idempotency case in test_orphan_cleanup;
the network-cleanup cases stay (those test real production
code).
- Marked test_pipelock_apply @skip pending chunk 4 — its
bringup helper used .start; chunk 4 rewrites it with direct
`docker run`.
Dockerfile deletion deferred to chunk 5 (when the bundle flag
default flips) — the legacy compose path still needs
Dockerfile.{egress,git-gate,supervise} until then.
Net: 708 lines removed, 80 added.
533 unit tests + 27 integration tests passing (5 skipped: the
chunk-4-pending case + existing GITEA_ACTIONS guards).

The docker backend's compose renderer now emits a single
`sidecars` service in place of the four per-sidecar services
when CLAUDE_BOTTLE_SIDECAR_BUNDLE is truthy. Default (unset/0/
false) keeps the legacy five-service shape so existing operators
don't have to migrate atomically; chunks 4-5 flip the default
and delete the flag.
New module claude_bottle/backend/docker/sidecar_bundle.py owns
the bundle image constant (CLAUDE_BOTTLE_SIDECAR_IMAGE env var
override + claude-bottle-sidecars:latest default), the
Dockerfile reference, the container-name helper, and the
flag-parser.
The bundle service:
- joins both internal + egress networks with aliases for every
legacy shortname + per-slug long form so the agent's
HTTPS_PROXY URL (which dials `egress` or
`claude-bottle-pipelock-<slug>`) keeps resolving with no
agent-side change
- carries CLAUDE_BOTTLE_SIDECAR_DAEMONS=<csv> for the init
supervisor to narrow which daemons to start
- carries the union of the four prior services' daemon-private
env vars (EGRESS_UPSTREAM_PROXY, SUPERVISE_*, token env names)
- does NOT carry HTTPS_PROXY/HTTP_PROXY/NO_PROXY — those would
route git-gate's git fetches through pipelock by mistake
- union'd bind-mounts at the same in-container paths as before
HTTPS_PROXY scoping moved into egress_entrypoint.sh so only
mitmdump's subprocess sees it. In the legacy four-sidecar shape
the env vars also lived in the egress service's compose env;
the shell script's export is additionally defensive.
Tests:
- All 44 existing TestCompose cases pass unchanged (flag off →
legacy shape).
- 20 new TestSidecarBundleShape cases assert on the bundle's
services / aliases / env / volumes / depends_on under the
flag.
- 8 new TestSidecarBundleFlag cases lock down the env-var
parser (unset / 0 / false / no / off → disabled; everything
else → enabled).

Reverts the earlier removal — EXPOSE is doc-only on the
renderer-driven publish path, but keeping it in the Dockerfile
(with the comment naming it as such) documents the bundle's
port surface for anyone reading the file.

Reverses chunk 1's "any unexpected child death tears down the
rest" policy. New behavior: a daemon dying is logged but does
NOT initiate shutdown — the surviving daemons keep running and
whatever the dead one served starts failing visibly on the
agent side. The supervisor exits only when (a) it receives
SIGTERM/SIGINT, or (b) every child has died on its own.
Eventual design is restart-the-dead-daemon plus a notification
to the supervise sidecar so the operator sees the event
explicitly; this commit ships only the "log and leave alone"
half. PRD 0024 open question 1 updated to reflect the new
intent.
Tests updated: replaced "crash propagates exit code via
auto-teardown" with three cases that exercise the new policy
(crash without shutdown leaves survivors up, crash-then-signal
surfaces the nonzero code, all-children-die-unattended still
converges the loop).

EXPOSE doesn't publish ports — the compose renderer does that.
Carrying it just to document the in-container port set adds
noise without doing work.

New Dockerfile.sidecars multi-stage build: pulls the pinned
pipelock and gitleaks binaries into a mitmproxy-base final image,
installs git + openssh-client, and ships the project's egress
addon + supervise server alongside a stdlib-Python init at
/app/sidecar_init.py.
The init supervisor (claude_bottle/sidecar_init.py) is PID 1 in
the bundle. It spawns the daemons named in
CLAUDE_BOTTLE_SIDECAR_DAEMONS (or all four by default),
propagates SIGTERM/SIGINT to children with an 8s grace before
SIGKILL, and exits with the first-unexpected-child exit code so
a daemon crash tears down the bundle (per PRD 0024 open
question 1's default).
claude_bottle/egress_entrypoint.sh extracted verbatim from
Dockerfile.egress's prior inline sh -c so the supervisor can
call it as a normal child.
Tests:
- unit: _selected_daemons env-var subset behavior (7 cases),
_Supervisor signal/exit-code semantics including SIGKILL
escalation, and end-to-end main() via subprocess.
- integration: builds the image and probes that pipelock,
gitleaks, mitmdump, and the supervise Python module are
present + executable, plus a no-daemons-selected smoke test
of the entrypoint wiring. Skipped under act_runner (200+MB
base pulls + multi-stage build).
Renderer collapse and the deletion of Dockerfile.{egress,git-gate,
supervise} land in chunk 2 + 3.

Replace pipelock + egress + git-gate + supervise as four
separate containers with one bundle image
(claude-bottle-sidecars) running all four daemons under a small
stdlib Python init supervisor. Compose file collapses from five
services to two; same daemons, same ports, same protocols, one
container.
Sized: bundle image + init → renderer collapse (feature-flagged)
→ backend Python trim → integration sweep → flag removal.
Prerequisite for PRD 0023 chunk 3 (smolmachines backend reuses
the same bundle as its sole host-side sidecar container).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replace the four host-side sidecar processes (pipelock + egress +
git-gate + supervise) with a single bundled container per bottle,
defined in PRD 0024 and consumed here. egress is internal to the
bundle as pipelock's upstream; only pipelock, git-gate, and
supervise are externally addressable, and only when the bottle
uses them.
gvproxy port_forwards collapse from one-per-process to one-per-
external-port, all pointing into the one bundle container.
Sizing: chunk 3 becomes "sidecar bundle lifecycle" and depends
on PRD 0024 having landed.

TSI's --outbound-localhost-only is permissive on all of
127.0.0.0/8 with no destination-port filter, so any host
loopback service (local Postgres, IDE plugins, another bottle's
sidecar) is reachable from the guest. That's the wrong default
for the malicious-agent threat model.
Reworked the network design around gvproxy + VFKT unixgram
attachment: the guest gets a virtio-net device, gvproxy is the
userspace TCP/IP stack on the host side, and the only thing
reachable from the guest is the explicit port-forward list
(typically just pipelock). Host LAN, host loopback, and the
public internet directly are gone by construction.
VMM choice (smolmachines vs PyObjC + Virtualization.framework)
is an open question contingent on whether libkrun's virtio-net
mode lets us point at a custom unixgram socket. Backend name
stays "smolmachines" either way per the original spec.

Specs a second concrete BottleBackend selectable via
CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND=smolmachines: per-agent libkrun microVM on
macOS, sidecars relocated to host-side loopback ports plumbed via
Smolfile env, PRD 0022's sandbox-escape suite as the acceptance
gate (the env-var flip is the only change required). Docker
backend ships unchanged and remains default.

The Gitea CI runner shares the host docker socket but not its
filesystem, so pipelock_tls_init's host bind-mount path for CA
files is invisible to the runner container — the same constraint
that already gates the other bottle-bringup integration tests.
PRD 0022's test suite was missing this guard; it failed on the
post-merge main build with "pipelock tls init did not produce ca
files". Mirror the existing skipIf pattern at the class level.

Two related changes the PRD 0022 sandbox-escape test surfaced:
1. `pipelock_build_config` now emits
`request_body_scanning.scan_headers: true` and
`header_mode: all`. Pipelock's default `header_mode:
sensitive` only checks Authorization / Cookie / X-Api-Key
/ X-Token / Proxy-Authorization / X-Goog-Api-Key — an
agent attempting exfil could trivially pick a
non-sensitive header (`X-Custom: $SECRET`) and slip
through. `all` closes the gap; pipelock caps it by the
same max_body_bytes the body scan uses.
2. Test 3 (HTTP exfil shapes) now targets
raw.githubusercontent.com instead of api.anthropic.com.
api.anthropic.com is in `DEFAULT_TLS_PASSTHROUGH` —
pipelock can't MITM it because real LLM conversation
bodies false-positive on DLP scanners (BIP-39 etc.). The
trade-off is documented in `pipelock.DEFAULT_TLS_PASSTHROUGH`;
the test now exercises a host where the sandbox is
actually supposed to block.
All 5 sandbox-escape attacks now produce HTTP 403 with the
expected sandbox marker (`egress:`, `pipelock`, or `blocked:`):
- Attack 1 (non-allowlisted host) ✓ egress
- Attack 2 (non-allowlisted IP + spoof) ✓ egress
- Attack 3a (URL path) ✓ pipelock DLP
- Attack 3b (URL query) ✓ pipelock DLP
- Attack 3c (request body) ✓ pipelock DLP
- Attack 3d (request header) ✓ pipelock DLP (scan_headers)
- Attack 4a (crafted subdomain) ✓ egress
- Attack 4b (direct dig @8.8.8.8) ✓ network isolation
- Attack 5 (README push, 3 secret shapes) ✓ gitleaks (pre-upstream)
489 unit tests pass (1 updated for the new request_body_scanning
shape). Full integration suite passes in ~6s.
End-to-end test that brings up a real bottle with allowlisted
egress + git-gate + three planted secrets, then runs five
attacks from inside the agent container.
Chunks 1-5 implemented in one pass against the Docker backend:
Attack 1 — non-allowlisted hostname (curl evil.example.com)
✓ blocked by egress
Attack 2 — non-allowlisted IP literal (198.51.100.1) + host-
header spoof via curl --resolve
✓ both blocked by egress
Attack 3 — HTTP exfil to allowlisted destination via path /
query / body / header
✗ ALL FOUR LEAK — request reaches api.anthropic.com
with the secret embedded. Pipelock's DLP doesn't
catch the anthropic-key shape in the body, and
nothing scans path / query / headers.
Attack 4 — DNS exfil via crafted subdomain + direct
dig @8.8.8.8 query
✓ both blocked (egress rejects subdomain, internal
network has no path to 8.8.8.8)
Attack 5 — README push through git-gate with secret-bearing
attacker URL (parameterized over anthropic / AWS /
generic shapes); ordering check that gitleaks fires
BEFORE any upstream attempt
✓ all three secret shapes blocked by gitleaks
Per PRD 0022 Q1 the assertion in attack 3 is authoritative —
HTTP 403 with an egress/pipelock marker in the body is the only
acceptable outcome. Any 4xx from upstream means the secret
reached the network. The four failing sub-tests are real
sandbox gaps that need their own remediation PRDs before this
test merges green.
Also adds `dnsutils` (dig) to the base agent image so attack 4's
direct-DNS check has a tool to run.
CI: no changes needed — `.gitea/workflows/test.yml` already runs
`tests/integration/` and the suite skip_unless_dockers cleanly
when the runner has no Docker socket.
All seven open questions now have decisions baked in:
- Q1 (HTTP-exfil scope): authoritative. Every shape MUST
block; chunk 3 expands into remediation sub-PRDs if
any of path/query/header leak today.
- Q3 (fake secret): multiple shapes, parameterized.
Three env vars (TEST_SECRET_ANTHROPIC, _AWS, _GENERIC);
test 5 loops via subTest. Resilient to gitleaks rule
renames.
- Q6 (missing backend): die. `get_bottle_backend()`'s
current behavior surfaces clearly; surprise-skips are
worse than loud failures for new-backend branches.
- Q7 (tool deps): preflight check. setUpClass runs
`which curl && which git && which dig`; SkipTest with
the missing list catches future backends shipping
thinner base images.
Updated implementation chunks + test-5 sketch to match.
No remaining open questions.
User feedback:
- Q2 (direct DNS resolver test): yes — test 4 grows a
second sub-assertion verifying `dig @8.8.8.8` from the
agent has no path out, alongside the existing
crafted-subdomain check.
- Q4 (gitleaks ordering): test 5 grows an ordering check
— asserts the rejection mentions `gitleaks` AND does
NOT mention upstream-network-phase phrases (resolve /
refused / unreachable / upstream). Confirms gitleaks
rejects BEFORE git-gate tries any upstream push.
- Q5 (CI): try it, accept fallback. New chunk 6 adds a
Gitea Actions job marked `continue-on-error: true` —
runs the suite if the runner can host compose, doesn't
block the workflow if docker-in-docker prevents it.
Three open questions remain (1: pipelock's actual DLP
coverage for non-body shapes; 3: realistic fake secret
shape vs. gitleaks regex; 6+7: backend-agnostic invocation
+ required tools — for the smolmachines work).
Draft a PRD for a composite integration test that brings up
a real bottle with a known allowlist + planted secret and
runs five attacks from inside the agent container:
1. Request to non-allowlisted hostname
2. Request to non-allowlisted IP (incl. host-header spoof)
3. Secret exfil via HTTP — path / query / body / headers
4. Secret exfil via crafted DNS subdomain
5. Secret exfil via README link pushed through git-gate
Each attack passes only when blocked with a permissions
error. The suite is backend-agnostic — runs against
whatever CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND selects — so it becomes the
gate the upcoming smolmachines spike has to pass before that
backend can substitute for Docker.
Sized into 5 chunks (fixture → attacks 1+2 → attack 3 →
attack 4 → attack 5). Seven open questions called out,
biggest being: today's pipelock probably leaks via header /
path / query because DLP only scans bodies — the test will
expose this as a real gap (chunk 3 lands with
`expectedFailure` markers if so).
When a fresh proposal arrives, the dashboard now also:
- Runs `tmux select-pane -t \$TMUX_PANE` (the dashboard's own
pane id, captured at startup) so tmux focus jumps to the
dashboard from wherever the operator was (typically claude
in the right pane).
- Flips internal focus to PANE_PROPOSALS so j/k navigates the
queued items immediately.
- Lands the selected cursor on the first new proposal —
proposals are sorted by arrival ascending, so the earliest
new arrival in the batch gets the cursor.
Stacks with the bell + label highlight from the previous
commit. The operator gets:
1. Audible bell (or tmux activity marker)
2. Tmux focus on the dashboard pane
3. Dashboard's internal focus on the proposals list
4. Cursor on the actual new proposal
5. Pane label flashing `(new!)` in bold green
— all without leaving the keyboard.
When a fresh proposal lands in the supervise queue, the
dashboard:
1. Rings the terminal bell via `curses.beep()` so tmux's
`monitor-bell` (or the terminal's own bell-on-activity)
surfaces a notice in the dashboard pane even when the
operator is focused on claude in the right pane.
2. Bolds + green-attrs the `proposals:` pane label and
suffixes it with `(new!)` so a glance at the dashboard
screen catches the alert at a glance.
The highlight tracks the existing per-row green-highlight
window (`_NEW_PROPOSAL_HIGHLIGHT_SEC`). The bell only fires for
NEWLY arrived proposals after the first tick — pre-existing
queue entries on dashboard startup don't ring.
The new-agent (`n`) flow's tmux branch was leaving keyboard
focus in the dashboard pane after compose-up + provision
finished and claude landed in the right pane — same situation
as Enter re-attach before its `focus_right_pane` fix. The
operator just spun an agent up; they want to type at it.
Pass `focus_right_pane=True` to `_attach_in_tmux` from the
new-agent flow. `tmux select-pane` runs after the respawn.
`--continue` exits non-zero when an agent has been spun up but
never typed at — there's no transcript to resume. Re-attaching
to such an agent via Enter (tmux mode) was crashing the pane.
Wrap the resume invocation in `sh -c '<cmd> --continue || <cmd>'`
so a failed `--continue` cleanly falls through to a fresh
claude. The shell adds microseconds and the fallback only
kicks in when --continue would have failed anyway.
New `_build_resume_argv_with_fallback(bottle)` builds the
shell-wrapped docker exec argv with proper shlex quoting (so
paths-with-spaces in `--append-system-prompt-file` survive).
Only the tmux re-attach path uses it; first-attach + foreground
handoff are unchanged.
489 unit tests pass (4 new for the fallback builder).
The Enter key on a focused agents-pane row is the operator's
explicit "I want to interact with this agent" signal — after
respawning the right pane with claude, move tmux's keyboard
focus to that pane so the operator can start typing
immediately. Without this, every Enter required a manual tmux
nav (C-b →) to actually use the session.
Mechanics:
- `_attach_in_tmux` gains `focus_right_pane: bool = False`.
- When True, runs `tmux select-pane -t <pane_id>` after the
respawn.
- `_attach_to_bottle` (the Enter handler's helper) passes
True.
- Other callers (new-agent flow, stop's auto-attach) leave
it False so the operator stays in the dashboard for
follow-up navigation.
`_tmux_select_pane` is a small subprocess wrapper, best-effort
on failure.
After `x` stops a dashboard-owned bottle, slide focus to the
next agent in the agents pane (the one filling the stopped
row, or the new last row if the stopped was last) and respawn
the right pane with that agent's claude session via `--continue`.
If no agents remain, close the right pane via `tmux kill-pane`.
Two new helpers:
- `_tmux_close_right_pane(tmux_state)` — kills the tracked
pane (if it exists) and clears pane_id / slug.
- `_pick_next_after_stop(agents_before, selected_index,
stopped_slug)` — pure chooser returning (new_index, agent)
or None. Tested directly.
Outside tmux, only the selected_agent index slides; no
auto-attach (foreground handoff would take over the terminal,
disruptive). 485 unit tests pass (6 new for the pick helper).
The dashboard is primarily an agent-management surface
(PRD 0020 + 0021); landing on the proposals pane was a holdover
from when proposals were the only thing the dashboard showed.
Default focus is now `PANE_AGENTS`, so j/k navigates the agents
list immediately on launch — the operator Tabs to proposals
when something queues. Focus choice still persists across
operations.
Both `_new_agent_flow` (bringup) and `_stop_bottle_flow`
(teardown) were doing the same five-step dance: open the log
path, mkdir parents, empty the file, ensure the right pane is
tailing it, redirect fd 2 to the same file. Extract into a
context manager:
with _route_op_to_right_pane(tmux_state, slug, log_name) as routed:
if routed:
<run op>
Yields True when routing succeeded (fd 2 redirected, pane
tailing), False on fallback conditions (not in tmux, no
tmux_state, or tmux failed to spawn a pane). The fallback
paths still differ between callers — bringup follows up
with `_attach_in_tmux`, teardown does the curses-endwin
compose-down — so the helper stops at "is stderr routed
or not" and lets callers branch from there. Net diff:
~60 lines deleted, the routing-to-right-pane concept now
lives in one place.
PRD 0021 follow-up. Mirrors the bringup-into-right-pane fix
on the explicit-stop path: when `\$TMUX` is set, the stop
flow respawns the right pane with `tail -F
state/<slug>/teardown.log` (via `_ensure_right_pane` —
reuses the existing right pane if it's the agent's claude
session) and redirects fd 2 to that log for the duration of
`capture_session_state` + `cm.__exit__`. compose-down +
network-remove messages stream into the right pane.
After `settle_state` removes the state dir, the tail keeps
its buffered output visible (tail -F handles file removal
gracefully); the next attach respawns the pane with claude.
Falls back to the existing curses-endwin path on tmux
failure, or when the dashboard isn't in tmux at all.
After the operator pressed `y` on the preflight modal (or
picked an agent in the picker), the modal's curses sub-window
stayed on screen until the dashboard's main loop ticked again
— which during a 5-10s launch made it look like the
confirmation never registered.
Add `_erase_modal` (touchwin + refresh on stdscr) and call it
at every exit from `_preflight_modal` and `_picker_modal`.
The pre-modal frame buffered on stdscr immediately overwrites
the sub-window's area; the launch proceeds with a clean
dashboard underneath.
PRD 0021 follow-up. The new-agent flow was calling a dedicated
`_tmux_split_pane_tail` that ALWAYS created a new pane —
so every `n` start spawned a fresh right pane next to any
existing one, accumulating panes instead of reusing them.
Replace with a generic `_ensure_right_pane(tmux_state, argv)`
that respawns the dashboard's tracked right pane if one is
alive, splits a new one only when none is tracked or the
tracked pane was closed. Both the new-agent tail-during-
bringup path AND the existing claude-attach path now route
through this helper.
Net effect: starting a second agent reuses the same right
pane — bringup tail replaces the prior claude session,
then claude (for the new agent) replaces the tail. Closing
the right pane manually via `C-b x` still triggers a fresh
split on the next attach.
PRD 0021 follow-up. When starting a new agent via `n` while
in tmux, the dashboard now:
1. Pre-creates the right pane with `tail -F
state/<slug>/bringup.log`.
2. Redirects fd 2 (stderr) to that log file via dup2 — affects
both Python `info()` calls AND subprocess inheritors'
stderr (docker compose up, network creates, provision).
3. Runs `backend.launch().__enter__()` with the redirect in
place; everything streams into the right pane via tail.
4. Restores stderr.
5. Respawns the right pane (tail → claude session).
Net effect: dashboard pane stays uncluttered during bringup,
and the operator watches the compose-up + provision output in
the same pane that's about to hold the claude session — no
visual handoff between "starting" and "started."
Curses never needs to come down on the tmux path (the pane is
already created in the dashboard's neighbor pane, and stderr
is redirected away from the terminal entirely).
If `_tmux_split_pane_tail` fails (tmux missing, server died),
falls through to the existing curses-endwin handoff so the
operator still gets a session.
PRD 0021 chunk 4 (final). Two adjustments to close the
split-pane loop:
1. `_stop_bottle_flow` clears `tmux_state['slug']` when the
stopped bottle was the right-pane occupant. The pane itself
stays in place (claude exits with "container not found");
the operator presses Enter on a different agent to
repurpose it via respawn-pane.
2. `_render` accepts `right_pane_slug` and marks the matching
agents-pane row with a `*` prefix + A_BOLD (when it's not
also the focused row — focused selection still wins for
visibility). Gives the operator a clear visual link
between which agent the dashboard says is "active right
now" and which one is visible to their right.
Wired through `_main_loop`: passes `tmux_state` to
`_stop_bottle_flow` on `x`, and `tmux_state.get('slug')` to
`_render` on every tick.
479 unit tests pass (1 new for the tmux_state-preservation
on non-owned stop). PRD 0021 implementation complete pending
merge.
PRD 0021 chunk 3. The `n` flow (PRD 0020 chunk 2) now routes
the first claude session of a freshly-started bottle into the
right tmux pane when `\$TMUX` is set — same `_attach_in_tmux`
state machine the Enter re-attach uses, just with
`resume=False` so claude starts fresh.
Outside tmux the existing foreground handoff is unchanged.
The compose-up phase (`backend.launch.__enter__`) still drops
curses for its stderr output; we restore curses BEFORE
spawning into the right pane so the dashboard re-renders
alongside the new claude session instead of waiting for
attach to return.
PRD 0021 chunk 2. New tmux integration: when `\$TMUX` is set
and the operator presses Enter on a focused agent row, the
dashboard spawns / respawns the right pane with that bottle's
claude session instead of taking over the terminal via
curses.endwin.
Mechanics:
- `_in_tmux()` — true when `\$TMUX` is set.
- `_tmux_split_pane_create` — first attach: `tmux split-window
-h -P -F '#{pane_id}'` opens a right pane and prints its id
for tracking.
- `_tmux_respawn_pane` — subsequent attaches: `tmux
respawn-pane -k -t <id>` swaps the content without
re-splitting.
- `_tmux_pane_exists` — `tmux list-panes` check before
respawn so a manually-closed pane gracefully falls back to
a fresh split.
- `_attach_in_tmux` — owns the create-or-respawn state
machine, mutates `tmux_state` ({pane_id, slug}) so the
main loop tracks the right-pane occupant.
- `_attach_via_handoff` — the previous curses-endwin path,
extracted as the fallback when tmux is missing or fails.
- `_attach_to_bottle` dispatches: in tmux + state available →
`_attach_in_tmux`; otherwise → handoff.
Main loop gets `tmux_state: dict = {"pane_id": None, "slug":
None}`. Chunks 3 + 4 wire it through the new-agent flow and
the stop hook.
`FileNotFoundError`-safe `subprocess.run` calls around every
tmux invocation — a missing tmux binary cleanly falls back to
the handoff for that keypress. 478 unit tests pass (10 new
for the pure argv builders + `_claude_runtime_args`).
PRD 0021 chunk 1. The tmux split-pane helpers (chunk 2+) need
the same docker-exec argv that `exec_claude` builds — including
the `--append-system-prompt-file <path>` flag the bottle's
provisioner copies into place. Extract the argv construction
into a pure `claude_docker_argv(argv, *, tty)` method so both
foreground (`subprocess.run`) and tmux paths
(`tmux respawn-pane …`) build from the same source.
`exec_claude` becomes a one-liner that runs subprocess.run on
the argv. No behavior change; 472 unit tests pass (7 new for
the pure builder).
PR #48 closed; treat the implementation as starting from
main, where no tmux integration exists yet. The PRD now
describes the full design (including the `_in_tmux` detection
+ helper scaffolding) as fresh work. Sized into 4 chunks:
`claude_docker_argv` refactor → tmux helpers + pane state +
`_attach_to_bottle` dispatch → new-agent flow → stop +
indicator.
Same design as before — opt-in by `\$TMUX`, split-window-then-
respawn, falls back to handoff on tmux failure or missing
binary. No external references to PR #48.
Draft a PRD that tightens PR #48's tmux integration from
"one new window per attach" to "one persistent right pane that
the dashboard's selection drives." Inside tmux (`\$TMUX` set):
dashboard in the left pane; pressing Enter or `n` spawns
claude in the right pane via `tmux split-window` on first
attach, then `tmux respawn-pane` on subsequent attaches so the
operator-focused agent is always the visible one.
Outside tmux: falls back to today's handoff. Opt-in by
environment; no flag.
Sized into 4 chunks (pane state + create → respawn → stop
integration → supersede PR #48's new-window). Seven open
questions called out, the biggest being whether the dashboard
should auto-exec into a fresh tmux session when launched
outside one (v1 says no — operators start tmux themselves).
The `bottles` dict held `@contextmanager`-wrapped launch contexts.
On normal Python interpreter shutdown those context managers'
generators got GC'd, which raised GeneratorExit at the yield
point and ran the `finally` block — invoking each bottle's
teardown and tearing down the compose project. Net effect: `q`
WAS implicitly stopping every dashboard-launched bottle even
though the keypress handler just `return`'d.
`os._exit(0)` skips all Python-level cleanup (GC, atexit, etc.),
so the docker compose projects survive the dashboard exit
untouched. Curses gets explicit `endwin()` first because the
brutal exit skips curses.wrapper's normal terminal restoration.
Matches PRD 0020's resolved-question answer (`q` does NOT tear
down bottles; teardown is always explicit via `x` or
`./cli.py cleanup`).
`--resume` alone surfaces claude's session picker even when only
one session exists. `--continue` jumps to the most recent session
non-interactively, which is the actual behavior the dashboard's
Enter re-attach wants for typical bottle-with-one-session cases.
Re-entering a running bottle from the dashboard (Enter on the
agents pane) now invokes claude with `--resume` so the session
picks up the prior conversation history rather than starting a
fresh transcript. The first-attach paths (`./cli.py start` and
the dashboard's new-agent `n` flow) leave it off — the
transcript doesn't exist yet there.
`attach_claude` gains a `resume: bool = False` kwarg;
`_attach_to_bottle` in the dashboard passes `True`.
Final PRD 0020 chunk. `x` on a focused agents-pane row tears
down the selected bottle if the dashboard owns it (started via
the chunk-2 `n` flow): pops `(cm, bottle, identity)` from the
main loop's bottles map, snapshots the transcript best-effort,
calls `cm.__exit__(None, None, None)` to drive the existing
compose-down + network-remove sequence, then `settle_state` to
honor any pre-existing preserve marker.
On a non-owned slug (discovered via `list_active_slugs` but not
in the dashboard's bottles dict — i.e., previous-dashboard or
external `./cli.py start` bottle), `x` is a no-op with a status
hint pointing at `./cli.py cleanup`. Matches the PRD's
cross-dashboard re-attach model: the dashboard can re-attach
either kind, but can only tear down its own.
The PRD's chunk 5 ("quit-cleanup") is satisfied by the existing
no-op behavior of `q` — per the user's resolved-question
answer, quit leaves bottles running unchanged. No code change
needed for that.
Footer surfaces `[x] stop`. 465 unit tests pass (1 new for the
non-owned no-op path; the owned path is integration territory
because it drives a real compose-down).
PRD 0020 chunk 3. Enter on a focused agents-pane row drops to a
claude session inside the selected bottle. Works for both
dashboard-owned bottles (looks up the stored Bottle handle in
the main loop's `bottles` dict) and externally-discovered ones
(synthesizes a DockerBottle from the slug → `claude-bottle-<slug>`
container name).
For the synthesized path, the `--append-system-prompt-file`
target resolves via metadata.json + the manifest's agent prompt
if both can be read; otherwise the re-attach runs without the
flag (claude defaults to no system prompt, the bottle's other
state is untouched).
Shares the curses.endwin → attach → refresh handoff with the
chunk-2 new-agent flow via a new `_attach_to_bottle` helper.
Footer reshuffled to advertise `[Enter] view/attach`. 464 unit
tests pass (3 new for `_bottle_for_slug`).
PRD 0020 chunk 2. Pressing `n` opens a modal that lists every
agent from the manifest with `(N running)` suffixes for ones
that already have bottles up. Type to filter (substring,
case-insensitive); j/k or arrows to navigate; Enter to confirm;
Esc clears the filter on first press, exits the picker on the
second.
On confirmation, the dashboard runs:
- `prepare_with_preflight` from chunk 1 with curses-modal
render + prompt callables (the preflight modal centers the
plan summary + captures [y/N]).
- `backend.launch(plan).__enter__()` — enters but doesn't bind
the context to a `with`. The (cm, bottle, identity) tuple
lands in the main loop's `bottles` dict keyed by slug.
- `curses.endwin()` → `attach_claude(bottle)` → `stdscr.refresh()`
handoff. The agent's claude session takes over the terminal;
on exit the dashboard re-renders with the bottle now visible
in the agents pane.
Crucially the context manager is held alive in `bottles` — never
`__exit__`'d at quit. Chunk 4 will wire `x` to that exit; for
now bottles started from the dashboard stay running until
explicit cleanup. Matches the PRD's "q does not tear down"
decision.
Footer surfaces `[n] new agent`. 461 unit tests pass (8 new for
`_filter_agents` and `_running_counts`).
PRD 0020 chunk 1. `cli/start.py`'s `_launch_bottle` did three
things in one function: prepare + preflight, attach claude, and
settle state on teardown. Split them so the dashboard (PRD 0020
chunk 2+) can reuse the prepare + attach pieces piecewise
without going through the CLI's one-shot orchestrator:
- `prepare_with_preflight(spec, *, stage_dir, render_preflight,
prompt_yes, dry_run)` — injects render + prompt callables so
the CLI binds them to stderr/stdin while the dashboard binds
them to a curses modal. Returns `(plan, identity)`; identity
is set after `backend.prepare` returns so callers can reap
the prepare-time state dir on abort via `settle_state` in
their finally — preserving today's preflight-N cleanup.
- `attach_claude(bottle, *, remote_control)` — runs claude
inside the bottle and returns its exit code. The dashboard
calls this from inside a `curses.endwin` → … →
`stdscr.refresh()` handoff.
- `capture_session_state` / `settle_state` lose their leading
underscore; the dashboard will call them on
session-end + explicit-stop respectively.
`_launch_bottle` becomes a thin orchestrator over those helpers.
No behavior change; all 453 unit tests pass and `./cli.py start
implementer --dry-run` produces identical preflight output.
Draft a PRD that turns the dashboard into the operator's single
surface — collapses today's two-terminal workflow (one for
`./cli.py start`, one for `./cli.py dashboard`) into a single
dashboard invocation that can spin up new agents, re-attach to
ones it already spun up, and explicitly stop them.
Picks the "handoff" mechanism from `docs/research/claude-code-
pane-in-dashboard.md` (curses.endwin → docker exec -it claude
→ stdscr.refresh) and crucially decouples the bottle's lifetime
from any single claude session: exit claude → back to dashboard
with the bottle still running; quit dashboard → tear down every
bottle the dashboard owns.
Sized into 5 chunks (refactor → picker + new-agent → re-attach
→ explicit stop → quit-cleanup). Seven open questions called
out, the biggest being modal-vs-drop-and-resume for the
preflight Y/N inside curses.
Survey the three realistic ways to surface a claude-code session
inside the dashboard TUI:
1. Handoff — drop curses, foreground claude, restore on exit
(the existing `e`/`p` pattern, extended). Minimal code,
side-by-time rather than side-by-side.
2. Embedded emulator — own a PTY, parse claude-code's ANSI
stream via `pyte`, paint it into a curses pane. Real
"pane in the dashboard" but a six-week build with one new
dep and several integration trap-doors (alt-screen, resize,
input routing, multi-PTY state).
3. External multiplexer — delegate pane creation to tmux /
iTerm / wezterm when detected. Tiny code, but splits the
operator's mental model and gives up layout control.
Recommendation: ship Option 1 first; defer Option 2 to "only if
Option 1 is observably insufficient"; treat Option 3 as a
niche augmentation for power users.
Calls out four followups worth verifying before committing
(PTY behavior at small sizes, attach-to-existing-exec, SIGWINCH
handling, `-it` vs `-i` for the embedded path).
PRD 0018 chunk 3's atomicity fix used write-temp-then-rename to
update bind-mounted config files. POSIX rename atomically swaps
the inode at the host path — but Docker single-file bind mounts
on Linux pin the source inode at mount time, so post-rename the
container's mount points at the now-orphaned old inode and never
sees the new content. The egress sidecar's SIGHUP-driven reload
re-reads the same stale file → "egress route updates aren't
updatable via the supervisor anymore".
Switch egress_apply + pipelock_apply to write in place (same
inode, truncated + rewritten). Lose file-level POSIX atomicity,
but:
- egress: SIGHUP fires only AFTER the write returns; the
addon's `load_routes` raises `ValueError` on a partial read
and keeps the previous in-memory routes, so the in-process
race window (already narrow) is non-disruptive.
- pipelock: applies via `docker restart` rather than SIGHUP;
restart serializes after the host write completes, so the
container reads the fully-written file on next boot.
macOS Docker Desktop's file-sharing layer (virtiofs / osxfs)
silently re-resolves the path on rename, which is why this bug
didn't surface in dev tests on macOS. Linux native Docker is
the strict reading; the fix works on both.
`egress_render_routes` now emits hand-rolled YAML in the same style
as `pipelock_render_yaml`. The egress addon parses it via
`yaml_subset.parse_yaml_subset` — the same parser the manifest
loader + pipelock_apply use.
Why bother: routes.yaml is bind-mounted into the egress sidecar
AND surfaced to operators through `routes edit` (PRD 0019). JSON-
in-yml renders ugly in $EDITOR and signals "this is data" rather
than "this is config you can read at a glance". Real YAML reads
cleanly.
Mechanics:
- `yaml_subset.py` drops its `claude_bottle.log` dependency.
Errors now raise `YamlSubsetError` (a `ValueError`); the
manifest loader + pipelock_apply catch it at the boundary
and forward to `die` / `PipelockApplyError` so callers see
the same behavior they did before.
- `Dockerfile.egress` adds one COPY line for `yaml_subset.py`
so it sits flat in `/app/` next to the addon. The addon
uses an absolute-import-with-fallback shim so the same file
works inside the container AND from the host's unit tests.
- `egress_apply._merge_single_route` round-trips current
routes.yaml through `parse_yaml_subset` + a new
`_render_routes_payload` helper instead of `json.loads` +
`json.dumps`.
End-to-end: rebuilt the egress image, ran `./cli.py start` to a
full bring-up, confirmed the addon's boot log shows `egress:
loaded 9 route(s)` — i.e., the YAML parses inside the container.
453 unit + 3 integration tests pass.
PRD 0019 chunk 4 (final). The `e` (routes edit) and `p` (pipelock
edit) keys now require an agent selection in the agents pane.
Pressing them with the proposals pane focused, with no active
agents, or with an out-of-range selection is a no-op with a
status hint ("no agent selected; Tab into the agents pane first").
The discover-and-prompt scaffolding inside
`_operator_edit_routes_flow` / `_operator_edit_allowlist_flow` /
`_operator_edit_flow` is gone. The flows now take an `ActiveAgent`
+ required-service name; they refuse with a clear message when
the bottle lacks the requested sidecar (e.g., `routes edit`
against a bottle with no `bottle.egress.routes` declared). The
`discover_egress_slugs` + `discover_pipelock_slugs` +
`_discover_active_with_service` helpers come out — they had no
remaining callers.
Footer now reads `[e/p] edit selected agent`.
PRD 0019 chunk 3. The TUI now has two focusable panes — proposals
and agents — and `Tab` toggles which one the `j/k`/arrow keys
move through.
Each pane keeps its own selection index. Switching panes doesn't
lose the position in the other; the cursor (`>` + reverse-video
row) appears only in the focused pane. The label line on each
pane shows "(focused)" when active.
Footer reshuffled: `[Tab] switch pane [j/k] move [Enter] view
[a/m/r] proposal [e/p] edit [q] quit`. When the agents pane is
focused and there's no status message to display, the idle
status line surfaces the currently-selected agent (or "[no
active agents]" / "[no agent selected]" fallbacks) so the
operator knows what an agent-scoped edit verb will target after
chunk 4 wires them up.
Proposal action keys (a/m/r/Enter) are gated on the proposals
pane being focused — pressing them with the agents pane focused
is a no-op. e/p still use the global discover-and-prompt flow
for one more chunk; chunk 4 swaps them to read the agents-pane
selection.
PRD 0019 chunk 2. The TUI's main render now draws two panes:
proposals on top (existing), active agents on the bottom (new).
Header counts both totals. The agents pane refreshes on the
same 1s tick — agents starting/stopping reflect without
operator action.
Each agent row shows slug, agent name, started-time (HH:MM:SS
of the metadata.json timestamp), and the bracketed list of
sidecars currently up. The `agent` service is filtered out of
the displayed list — it's always present so it'd be noise; the
sidecars are the differentiator. A bottle whose only running
service is `agent` (sidecars still warming up) renders as
`(starting)`.
No selection model yet — that's chunk 3. The cursor stays in
the proposals pane; `j/k`/arrow nav and the proposal action
keys are unchanged.
PRD 0019 chunk 1. New `discover_active_agents()` in dashboard.py
returns one `ActiveAgent(slug, agent_name, started_at, services)`
per currently-running compose project:
- Slugs come from `list_active_slugs()` (chunk-5 shared helper).
- The service set per project comes from ONE label-filtered
`docker ps` call (PRD open question #1: avoids N per-bottle
`compose ps` invocations on each 1s refresh tick).
- agent_name + started_at come from each bottle's
metadata.json; "?" / "" fallbacks when the file is missing
so the row renders rather than vanishes.
Not wired into the TUI yet — chunk 2 renders the agents pane.
The parser (`_parse_services_by_project`) is split out as a pure
function so the conditional-input shape can be unit-tested
without docker.
When no agent is selected, `e` / `p` do nothing (status line
shows "no agent selected") rather than falling back to today's
global discover-and-prompt. The discover-and-prompt scaffolding
in `_operator_edit_routes_flow` / `_operator_edit_allowlist_flow`
comes out entirely — selection in the agents pane is now the
only way to scope an edit. Old open-question #4 (single-bottle
shortcut behavior in proposals-pane mode) is moot and removed.
Draft a PRD that adds an "active agents" pane to the dashboard
TUI (below the existing proposals pane) and reshapes the operator
`routes edit` (e) / `pipelock edit` (p) verbs to be agent-scoped
when the cursor is in the agents pane — no more global discover
+ disambiguation prompt on every press. Tab toggles which pane
nav keys move through.
Sized into 4 chunks (discovery helper → render pane → selection
state → agent-scoped verbs). Six open questions called out, the
biggest being whether per-bottle `compose ps` on every 1s tick
scales for hosts with many bottles (answer leans toward one
label-filtered `docker ps`).
PRD 0018 chunk 5. The dashboard's operator-edit verbs
(`routes edit`, `pipelock edit`) enumerated running sidecars
via `docker ps --filter name=...` prefix scans. Switch to
`docker compose ls`-based discovery so the dashboard, cleanup
CLI, and launch step all agree on what's running.
Mechanics:
- `claude_bottle/backend/docker/compose.py` grows three shared
helpers: `list_compose_projects` (the JSON parse moved out
of cleanup), `slug_from_compose_project` (inverse of
`compose_project_name`), and `list_active_slugs` (sugar over
the first two for the common "what's running?" question).
- cleanup.py drops its private `_list_compose_projects` +
`_PROJECT_PREFIX` in favor of the shared ones; `list_active`
simplifies (one compose-ls call, not two).
- dashboard.py's `_discover_sidecar_slugs` becomes
`_discover_active_with_service`: cross-references the active
slug list with a label-filtered `docker ps` so only bottles
whose given service container is actually up surface in the
edit menu. Bottles without an egress sidecar (no
bottle.egress.routes) no longer appear for `routes edit`.
3 new unit tests cover the slug ↔ compose-project naming
contract; manual probe with a fake compose project confirms
both `discover_egress_slugs` and `discover_pipelock_slugs`
return the expected slug.
PRD 0018 chunk 4. `claude-bottle cleanup` now derives its work
from `docker compose ls --all --format json`, filtered to projects
whose name starts with `claude-bottle-`. Per project: one `compose
down --volumes` removes the containers + the compose-managed
networks atomically.
The plan also enumerates three fallback buckets:
- Stray containers — `claude-bottle-*` containers with no
`com.docker.compose.project` label (left over from pre-compose
code paths). Cleared via `docker rm -f`.
- Stray networks — `claude-bottle-*` networks with no compose
project label. Cleared via `docker network rm`.
- Orphan state dirs — per-bottle `~/.claude-bottle/state/<id>/`
dirs with no live project AND no `.preserve` marker. The
`.preserve` marker (capability-block or auto-preserve-on-crash)
explicitly opts-out of reaping; manual `rm -rf` is the only
path for preserved state.
cli/cleanup.py collapses to a single y/N prompt — backend.prepare_cleanup
returns everything in one plan, backend.cleanup processes everything,
no more double-prompt for state. The CLI-side state-dir enumeration
+ `_state_summary` flags from PR #25 are gone; the backend's
orphan-detection rules subsume them.
PRD 0018 chunk 4 spike: empirically verified that pipelock's SSRF
guard checks proxied-request destinations (e.g. api.anthropic.com →
public IP) and not source IPs of incoming connections. The
bottle's own internal CIDR was being added to ssrf.ip_allowlist
defensively, but that defense isn't load-bearing — direct pipelock
probe (`curl --proxy http://pipelockhttps://api.anthropic.com/`)
returns 404 from upstream rather than blocking on SSRF.
So:
- Networks become compose-managed (`internal: true` on the
internal network; the egress one is a normal user-defined
bridge). Compose creates + removes them via up/down.
- launch.py drops the `docker network create` + `network_inspect_cidr`
+ pipelock yaml re-render dance.
- The pre-create/external scaffolding from chunk 3 goes with it.
End-to-end `./cli.py start` still works; cleanup leaves no
orphans. If real-world use surfaces an SSRF block we hadn't
predicted, the allowlist can come back via subnet-pinning rather
than pre-create.

short-description: Score code quality with a strict rubric
---
# Quality Eval
## Role
Act as a Staff Software Engineer and automated quality gate. Evaluate code objectively against the rubric below, surface hidden anti-patterns, and provide a mathematical grade with atomic refactoring steps.
## Evaluation Rules
- Evaluate only against the five rubric dimensions.
- Be candid. Do not inflate scores for politeness.
- Avoid generic advice. Every recommendation must name a specific code location, behavior, or pattern and include a concrete improvement direction.
- Inspect the code before scoring. For codebases, read enough representative files, tests, and architecture boundaries to justify the scope.
- When exact line numbers are available, cite them.
- Do not reveal private chain-of-thought. In the required `Chain of Thought Analysis` section, provide a concise, step-by-step audit rationale with observable findings and score justifications.
## Rubric
Score each dimension from 1 to 5 using these anchors:

Run multiple Claude Code agents on your own machine, each scoped to its own secrets, skills, and egress allowlist.
**Problem:** Developer wants to run a coding agent without supervision, but they don't want a prompt injected or misbehaving agent wrecking their environment or exfiltrating sensitive data.

**Solution:** Ephemeral, per agent "bottles" the agent cannot modify that scan all traffic for data exfiltration and limit capabilities and egress to only what the agent needs.
Four prompts to the agent inside a real bottle:
claude replies to `hello there` — proof api.anthropic.com routes
through pipelock's bumped TLS end-to-end;
asked to GET a non-allowlisted host, the agent's curl gets 403 back
from pipelock;
asked to POST a credential-shaped body to an allowlisted host, the
same 403 — pipelock's DLP body scanner caught it;
asked to commit and push an AKIA-shaped key, git-gate's gitleaks
pre-receive hook rejects the ref.
Run it yourself with `bash scripts/demo.sh`.
## Features
## Why "claude-bottle"?
Each container is a bottle; Claude is the genie inside. The genie's
powers are exactly what the manifest grants it — a specific set of
skills, a specific set of secrets, and a specific set of hosts it can
reach — nothing more. You uncork one bottle per agent
(`./cli.py start <agent>`), many bottles run in parallel, and each is
scoped to its task. When the session ends the bottle is destroyed and
the genie does not persist.
## Goals
-Scope each agent to the minimum credentials and network egress its task actually needs
- Run multiple agents in parallel, isolated from each other
- Keep code, credentials, and agent activity on infrastructure I control — no third-party agent runtime
## Security model
Each agent runs in its own bottle: its own container, its own internal
Docker network, and its own pipelock sidecar. Bottles don't share
state, don't talk to each other, and only get the env vars, skills,
SSH identities, and egress hosts the manifest grants them — nothing
more. Any one agent only has the access it needs to do its job.
The bottle limits both what an agent can see and where it can send
it. Each bottle gets only the secrets and SSH identities the manifest
grants it — a Gitea token but not a GitHub token, a deploy key but
not a personal SSH key — so even a compromised or misbehaving agent
only handles credentials it was already trusted with for its job.
Egress flows through pipelock, which constrains where those
credentials can travel: an agent with a Gitea token can reach
`gitea.dideric.is`, not arbitrary attacker-controlled hosts. The same
constraint blocks DNS-over-HTTPS as an exfil channel — a DoH resolver
like `cloudflare-dns.com` would have to be on the allowlist for the
agent to reach it at all. The container itself adds a layer between
the agent and the host, but the v1 design leans more on secret
minimization and egress allowlisting than on the container as a
hardened boundary. On Linux hosts where [gVisor](https://gvisor.dev/)
is registered with Docker, claude-bottle auto-detects it and launches
every bottle under `runsc` for a userspace syscall barrier — no
manifest configuration required. The broader v2 discussion lives in
The egress proxy and OAuth-token handling below are the load-bearing
pieces of v1.
- **Per-bottle egress allowlist** — TLS-bumped HTTP/HTTPS chokepoint with a per-manifest host allowlist; per-route path/method/header `matches` filtering; outbound DLP scanning for known tokens and secrets, inbound DLP scanning for prompt-injection attempts; DoH and arbitrary hosts blocked by default.
- **Per-route token-match policy** — each egress route picks what happens when the outbound DLP catches a token via `dlp.outbound_on_match`: `supervise` (default) holds the request and surfaces it in `./cli.py supervise` for approval (an approved value is remembered for the life of the proxy); `redact` scrubs the value and forwards; `block` is a hard `403`. Cuts false-positive friction without weakening default-deny.
- **Tokens the agent never sees** — host secrets live in a sidecar; the agent dials `http://sidecar:9099/<path>` and the proxy strips inbound `Authorization` and injects the real token before forwarding. `printenv` in the agent shows proxy URLs only.
- **Gitleaks-scanned push (git-gate)** — `bottle.git` remotes route through a per-bottle `git daemon` that gitleaks-scans incoming refs pre-receive and forwards clean refs upstream over SSH. The agent never holds the upstream credential.
- **Manifest-scoped skills + secrets** — each bottle declares its skills, env, git identity, remotes, and egress routes; unknown keys die at load.
- **Trust boundary at `$HOME`** — bottles (credentials, egress, remotes) live only under `~/.bot-bottle/bottles/`. Repos may ship agents but not bottles, so a cloned repo can't redirect an env var to an attacker host.
- **Composable bottles (`extends:`)** — keep provider/runtime policy in one base bottle (e.g. `claude.md`) and overlay task bottles on top.
- **Parallel, isolated bottles** — each bottle runs in its own backend-owned isolation boundary; bottles don't share state or talk to each other.
- **Provider templates (Claude, Codex)** — `Dockerfile.claude` / `Dockerfile.codex`, or a bottle-supplied Dockerfile. Claude auth via long-lived OAuth token; Codex via opt-in host device-auth forwarding.
- **gVisor auto-detect** — on Linux hosts where `runsc` is registered with Docker, every bottle launches under it for a userspace syscall barrier; no manifest config required.
- **Apple Container backend (macOS default when available)** — runs the agent and sidecar bundle with Apple's `container` CLI, using a host-only agent network plus a separate sidecar egress network.
- **Smolmachines backend** — runs the agent in a libkrun micro-VM while the sidecar bundle stays in Docker. TSI and smolmachines DNS filtering close the raw DNS exfiltration gap that exists in the legacy Docker backend.
-**Legacy Docker backend** — still available for examples, CI, and hosts without Apple Container via `BOT_BOTTLE_BACKEND=docker` or `--backend=docker`.
## Architecture
A bottle is the agent container plus up to three per-protocol egress
sidecars on a per-agent Docker `--internal` network. The agent has no
default route off-box. All HTTP and HTTPS egress — from the agent
*and* from cred-proxy when it dials an upstream — funnels through
pipelock, where the egress allowlist, TLS interception, and
request-body DLP scanner enforce the manifest before any byte leaves
the host. The only egress that doesn't traverse pipelock is git-gate's
SSH push/fetch to `bottle.git` upstreams — pipelock can't proxy SSH,
so git-gate is its own L4-style egress path with gitleaks doing the
pre-receive scan.
On the default macOS Apple Container backend, a bottle is an agent container on a host-only internal network plus a sidecar bundle attached to both that internal network and a NAT egress network. The agent gets HTTP(S)_PROXY and CA bundle env vars pointing at the sidecar's internal-network IP, so HTTP/HTTPS traffic flows through the sidecar instead of direct egress. `bottle.git` / git-gate is intentionally deferred on this backend until a safe Apple Container key-delivery path exists.
On the smolmachines backend, a bottle is an agent micro-VM plus a Docker sidecar bundle for egress, git-gate, and supervise. The VM reaches the sidecars through a per-bottle loopback alias allowed by TSI; smolmachines handles DNS filtering below the guest OS.
On the legacy Docker backend, the same logical bottle is two containers per agent: an `agent` container and a `sidecars` container. They share a per-agent Docker `--internal` network; the agent has no default route off-box.
`tea-login`. The agent's `printenv` shows only proxy URLs —
none of the real token values. Design in
`docs/prds/0010-cred-proxy.md`.
When the agent exits, `cli.py` tears down every sidecar that was
brought up and the two networks; nothing about a bottle persists
between runs.
When the agent exits, `cli.py` tears down every sidecar and both networks; nothing about a bottle persists between runs.
## Quickstart
Requires Docker on the host and a long-lived Claude Code OAuth token in
your shell env.
On compatible macOS hosts, the default backend requires Apple's `container` CLI and does not require Docker. The smolmachines backend requires Docker on the host for the sidecar bundle plus smolvm. The legacy Docker backend requires Docker. Claude bottles also need a long-lived Claude Code OAuth token (`claude setup-token`) exported as `BOT_BOTTLE_CLAUDE_OAUTH_TOKEN`.
Use `BOT_BOTTLE_BACKEND=docker ./cli.py start <agent>` on hosts where Apple Container is not installed and Docker is the desired backend.
```sh
./cli.py start <agent> # builds the image on first run, drops you into claude
```
The container is removed automatically when the session ends. If the script
is killed with SIGKILL the exit trap won't fire and the container may be
left running; remove it with `docker rm -f <container-name>`.
## Manifest
Bottles and agents live as Markdown files with YAML frontmatter under
`~/.claude-bottle/`. Each bottle is one file in `bottles/`, each agent
is one file in `agents/`:
Bottles and agents are Markdown files with YAML frontmatter under`~/.bot-bottle/`. The Markdown body is the system prompt. Bottles live in `~/.bot-bottle/bottles/`; agents may also be shipped by a repo at `<repo>/.bot-bottle/agents/<name>.md`.
```
~/.claude-bottle/
├── bottles/
│ ├── dev.md
│ └── gitea-dev.md
└── agents/
├── implementer.md
└── researcher.md
```
The filename (without `.md`) is the entity's name. Filenames must
match `[a-z][a-z0-9-]*`; files that don't are skipped with a warning.
A repo can ship its own agent files alongside its code at
`<repo>/.claude-bottle/agents/<name>.md`. Those agents reference
bottles defined in `~/.claude-bottle/bottles/` (the only place
bottles can come from); a `bottles/` subdir in a repo is ignored
with a warning. **This is the trust boundary**: bottle infrastructure
— credentials, egress allowlists, git remotes — comes from your home
directory only. A cloned repo cannot redirect a host env var to an
attacker-named upstream because it has no way to declare a bottle.
### Example bottle (`~/.claude-bottle/bottles/gitea-dev.md`)
The agent's Markdown body is its system prompt (whitespace
stripped). The frontmatter declares the bottle to launch in and any
skills to mount. You can also include Claude Code subagent fields
(`name`, `description`, `model`, `color`, `memory`) in the
frontmatter — claude-bottle ignores them at launch but doesn't
reject them, so the same file can drop into `~/.claude/agents/` as a
Claude Code subagent.
**Egress route fields:**
Unknown top-level frontmatter keys die at load with a "did you mean"
pointer; typos don't silently ghost into an empty config.
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `host` | yes | Hostname to allowlist. One entry per host. |
| `role` | no | Reserved for future use. The key is recognised but any value is currently rejected at load. Provider auth routes (e.g. Claude's `api.anthropic.com`) are injected automatically from `agent_provider.auth_token`, not via `role`. |
| `auth.scheme` | when `auth` present | `Bearer` or `token`. Injected by the proxy; the agent never sees the value. |
| `auth.token_ref` | when `auth` present | Env-var name holding the secret on the host. |
| `matches` | no | Array of `{paths, methods, headers}` filters. A request must match at least one entry (if any are given) to be forwarded. |
| `matches[].paths` | no | Array of `{type, value}`. `type` is `prefix` (default), `exact`, or `regex`. |
| `matches[].methods` | no | Array of HTTP method strings, e.g. `[GET, POST]`. |
| `matches[].headers` | no | Array of `{name, value, type}`. `type` is `exact` (default) or `regex`. |
| `dlp` | no | Per-route DLP overrides. Omit to use defaults (all detectors on). |
| `dlp.outbound_detectors` | no | `false` disables outbound scanning; list restricts to named detectors (`token_patterns`, `known_secrets`). |
| `dlp.inbound_detectors` | no | `false` disables inbound scanning; list restricts to named detectors (`naive_injection_detection`). |
| `dlp.outbound_on_match` | no | What to do when an outbound token is detected: `supervise` (default for manifest routes — hold for operator approval), `redact` (scrub the value and forward), or `block` (hard 403). Agent-provider routes (e.g. `api.anthropic.com`) default to `redact`. |
| `git.fetch` | no | `true` permits smart HTTP clone/fetch (`git-upload-pack`) for this host. Push (`git-receive-pack`) remains blocked. |
The YAML subset the frontmatter accepts is bounded (flat keys,
nested dicts). Anchors, multi-line block scalars, tags, and
ambiguous bare strings (`yes` / `NO` / `2026-05-24` /
`0x...`) all die with a clear pointer at the spec — quote your
strings when in doubt. The full schema lives in
`claude_bottle/yaml_subset.py` (~450 lines, stdlib-only, no PyYAML).
When an outbound DLP detector matches a token, the route's `dlp.outbound_on_match` policy decides what happens. Under the default `supervise`, the proxy queues an `egress-token-allow` proposal for the operator's `./cli.py supervise` TUI and holds the request open until it is answered (or `EGRESS_TOKEN_ALLOW_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`, default 300s, elapses — after which it fails closed). The operator never sees the raw token, only the host, method, path, and a redacted snippet; approving adds the value to an in-memory safelist for the life of the egress proxy. Under `redact`, the matched value is scrubbed from the body, headers, and path and the request is forwarded (failing closed if a match lands somewhere unredactable, like the hostname). Under `block` it stays a hard `403`. Structural blocks (CRLF injection) and not-in-allowlist host blocks are always hard `403`s regardless of policy.
Working examples live under `examples/`. Pipelock's design lives in
`docs/prds/0001-per-agent-egress-proxy-via-pipelock.md` and the
rationale in `docs/research/pipelock-assessment.md`. The trust
boundary rationale lives in `docs/prds/0011-per-file-md-manifest.md`.
## Auth: OAuth token, not API key
claude-bottle authenticates `claude` inside the container with the same
Pro/Max subscription you already use on the host, via a long-lived OAuth
token. No `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` is needed.
**Why a token instead of mounting `~/.claude.json`:** on macOS, Claude
Code stores OAuth credentials in the encrypted Keychain, not in
`~/.claude.json`. Mounting that file into a Linux container does not
carry the credentials with it. Linux hosts keep credentials in
`~/.claude/.credentials.json`, but to keep the launcher portable
claude-bottle uses the env-var path on every host.
**One-time setup on the host:**
```sh
claude setup-token # browser login, prints a ~1-year OAuth token
```
Stash the token in your shell env (e.g. `~/.zshrc` or a secret manager)
as `CLAUDE_BOTTLE_OAUTH_TOKEN`:
```sh
export CLAUDE_BOTTLE_OAUTH_TOKEN="<token>"
```
The bottle reaches the Anthropic API only through the cred-proxy
sidecar. To let `claude` authenticate, declare a route in
`bottle.cred_proxy.routes` with `role: "anthropic-base-url"` and
`token_ref: "CLAUDE_BOTTLE_OAUTH_TOKEN"`:
```jsonc
{
"path": "/anthropic/",
"upstream": "https://api.anthropic.com",
"auth_scheme": "Bearer",
"token_ref": "CLAUDE_BOTTLE_OAUTH_TOKEN",
"role": "anthropic-base-url"
}
```
At launch, `cli.py` reads `CLAUDE_BOTTLE_OAUTH_TOKEN` from the host
env and forwards it into the cred-proxy container's environ — never
into the agent's. The agent receives `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` pointing at
`http://cred-proxy:9099/anthropic` and a non-secret placeholder for
`CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` (claude-code refuses to start without one;
the proxy strips and replaces the header on every request). `printenv`
inside the agent does not surface the real token, and the value is
never written to disk or placed on argv on the host.
A bottle without an `anthropic-base-url` route has no path to the
Anthropic API — there is no fallback that forwards the token directly
to the agent. Caveats: the token is bound to your subscription tier
(Pro/Max/Team/Enterprise), it does not work with `claude --bare`
(which only reads `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`), and if it leaks, regenerate
via `claude setup-token` again. Reference:
<https://code.claude.com/docs/en/authentication>.
More examples in `examples/`. Full design lives under `docs/prds/`; the trust-boundary rationale is in `docs/prds/0011-per-file-md-manifest.md`.
