New Task now opens directly as an empty ChatThread (NewTaskChat) instead of
a separate compose screen, sized like a real task window. The Scope/Activity
context rail in a task window no longer renders until there's actually
something to show (touched entities, activity, or an open question),
avoiding an empty-placeholder sidebar on every new task. Also fixes the
chat input defaulting to several lines tall on window open, centers the
empty-chat greeting vertically, and gives floating windows the same
frosted-glass look as the desktop's task launcher card.

Implements plans/2026-07-20-desktop-mascot.md. New code under
web/src/lib/mascot/ (types/sprites/render/state/behavior/actions/
stimuli + Mascot/MascotLayer/RadialMenu/NameDialog components) plus
CC0 sprite sheets at web/public/mascot/ (chicken + Onocentaur egg pack
+ reaction bubbles). MascotLayer is inserted into Desktop.svelte after
WindowLayer; <2-line integration.
Tamagotchi: egg -> chick -> adult lifecycle persisted to
localStorage['oikos-mascot'] (debounced 300ms). Egg hatches on first
naming (no timed incubation per implementation deviation). Chick/adult
wander, peck, sleep, blink autonomously via a weighted-random FSM; the
chicken walks above windows (ground line = highest window top edge
beneath its x, recomputed each tick from wmState; rides the ground when
the window beneath is dragged).
Interaction: draggable with flutter-fall physics on release mid-air;
plain click = pet (heart bubble + happy anim); right-click opens a
rounded-button radial menu (Interact/Care/Identity/Debug nested groups)
mirroring the desktop's own right-click menu styling; auto-flips above/
left near screen edges.
Awareness: stimulus bus subscribes to chat.ts streaming, activity.ts
activityLog (knowledge-entry diff), events.ts liveEvents (critical/
signal -> alarmed, execution -> happy), with priority+cooldown gating.
Egg-stage reactions are suppressed. Reaction bubbles are anti-aliased.
Sprite loop runs at ~60fps via setTimeout (not rAF) per GraphBackground
convention, dt clamped to 100ms; position via transform: translate3d
+ will-change: transform for compositor-friendly motion. Z-index
ordering: WindowLayer z-40 < MascotLayer z-[45] < desktop context menu
z-50 < RadialMenu/NameDialog z-[60].
Docs: plan + docs/mascot/README.md (MBSE subsystem model) updated to
Implemented with a deviations note covering hatch-on-naming, PNG-sheet
art, button-column radial menu, 60fps loop, egg-reaction suppression,
and window-walking ground model. VERSION bumped 0.7.13 -> 0.8.0.
The taskbar's gear icon reopened the full-page "Connect to Oikos" screen
even once already connected. Split that: Config.svelte stays as the
first-run/unconfigured screen; a new Settings app (windowed, like Tasks or
Operations) now handles in-session changes, with a section list (Connection,
Appearance) built to grow — future settings are one more entry, not a new
screen.
- pages/Settings.svelte: Connection (server URL/token/Authentik, reusing
config.ts + oidc.ts) and Appearance (Terracotta/Carbon picker) sections.
- apps.ts: registered as a normal desktop app.
- Taskbar's gear button now opens the Settings window; removed the
onOpenConnection prop threaded through App -> Desktop -> Taskbar, since
Settings' "Forget saved connection" (clear config + reload) replaces it.

Replace hand-rolled pointer-resize logic (TaskContextPanel's 3-way vertical
split, SessionChatWindow's rail, ChatThread's message/input split) with
svelte-splitpanes, themed onto the app's existing border/primary tokens.
- TaskContextPanel: Scope/Plan/Event-log sections collapse to a fixed header
height and restore their last size on reopen.
- ChatThread: input area is now a separate resizable pane, clamped to a
measured one-line minimum and a 45% max, instead of a fixed max-h textarea.
- Send button restyled to sit inside the input's corner (Claude-style),
swapping the up-arrow for a corner-down-left return icon.
- Adds a $app/environment shim + optimizeDeps exclude, since
svelte-splitpanes assumes SvelteKit and this is a plain Vite app.

Replace the sidebar + hash-routed page shell with a desktop metaphor:
draggable app icons, apps opening as floating wmkit windows, a centered
"What should Nomos do?" task launcher, and a bottom taskbar showing all
open windows plus a system tray.
- New app registry ($lib/apps.ts) — adding an app is one entry, nothing
else to touch.
- New desktop shell components (Desktop, WindowLayer, DesktopIcon,
Taskbar, TaskLauncher) under $lib/components/desktop-shell/.
- Icon positions are a persisted, collision-avoiding grid ($lib/stores/icons.ts).
- Window layout persists across reloads (wmkit persist), with
drag-to-maximize, F6 window cycling, and now a right-click desktop menu
(cascade/tile/show desktop/reset icons) plus Cmd/Ctrl+Z undo/redo for
window moves, resizes, and closes.
- Taskbar buttons get a hover-close and self-correct their title once a
new task's real goal is known.
- New task windows (desktop launcher and the Tasks app's "New task"
button) open as a window, not a dialog, and hand off to the real
session window once the backend assigns an id.
- Fixed a real gap along the way: GET /sessions/{id} couldn't tell
"session deleted" from "session has no messages yet" (both returned
200 with an empty list) — cmd/nomos/main.go now checks existence and
404s, so a stale/persisted task window shows "Task not found" instead
of a misleadingly empty, live-looking chat.
- Test coverage for the new pure logic (icon placement/collision
avoidance, app registry id helpers) plus a vitest matchMedia polyfill
needed to import anything touching the theme store.
Deletes the now-superseded sidebar shell, MinimizedWindowsBar, and the
standalone Chat/EntityDetail pages (folded into the window layer).

Clicking a task now opens it as a wmkit floating window (like entity
windows already do) instead of navigating away from wherever you were.
Several task windows can be open and actively streaming at once, each
fully independent — no "which one's on screen" guard needed, since
each window owns its own store bundle:
- chat.ts: chatFor(sessionId)/loadSessionChat/sendSessionMessage give
each window its own messages/streaming/connectionState, alongside
the existing singleton path the main Chat page still uses unchanged.
- workspace.ts: same split for plan/questions/touched/health-diffs
(workspaceFor/startSessionWorkspace), each with its own live-event
watermark since several windows can watch the same event stream.
- activity.ts: activityLogFor(sessionId) mirrors the global derivation.
SessionGraph.svelte, OperatorQuestion.svelte, and ActivityTimeline.svelte
were converted from store-importing to prop-driven (matching the new
ChatThread.svelte, extracted from Chat.svelte's transcript/input so both
the main page and task windows share one implementation instead of
duplicating markup/styling) so each can render either the global
"current session" or a specific window's session.
Also: minimized-window taskbar chips now cap at a max width with
middle-ellipsis truncation instead of growing unbounded, and the
window header's title/action-button row is fixed to genuinely match
heights (not just share a center point) for more robust alignment.

Replace the Fleet/Network/Identity/Knowledge category tabs (which
scoped entity fetches server-side) with a single "Types" multiselect
shared by both the table and graph views — both now fetch the whole
entity set (paginated via the new fetchAllEntities) and filter
client-side, defaulting to fleet's types. Table and graph also share
one search/highlight field instead of two separately-labeled ones.
Along the way, fixed a real bug the wider entity set exposed: the
treegrid's parent/child grouping fired one fetchGraph call per
candidate root entity, fine for the old ~50-entity fleet scope but an
ERR_INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES flood once scoped to the full ~1700-entity
set. Replaced with a single whole-graph fetch, deriving parent/child
pairs from its edges client-side.

Quadratic-bezier edges instead of straight lines, and drop the
auto-refit-on-load that caused a jarring zoom/pan snap once the force
simulation settled. Also namespace each graph's dot-grid pattern id
with a per-instance uuid — multiple SessionGraph instances can now be
mounted at once (one per open task window), and duplicate SVG ids
silently blanked out every graph's background but the first.

Every place that showed entity detail (Knowledge Base's right sidebar,
the EntitySheet drawer used by Knowledge and the chat session graph,
the standalone /entity/:slug page) now opens the entity in its own
floating, draggable, resizable window instead — several can be open
side by side, and clicking a relation inside one opens another,
building up a stack. Windows are managed by one global wmkit instance
(new $lib/stores/windows.ts + $lib/components/EntityDesktop.svelte,
mounted once in App.svelte), themed with the app's own card/border/ring
tokens rather than wmkit's bundled themes (app.css).
- Delete EntitySheet.svelte (redundant) and the KnowledgeBase resizable
detail pane; row/graph-node click handlers now call
openEntityWindow(slug) instead of setting local sidebar state.
- SessionGraph (chat's "Scope" mini-graph): clicking a node opens its
window directly instead of a click-through mini-detail panel with
its own resize handle and "Full detail" button — that whole
subsystem is now dead and removed. Node highlight ring is kept
(still useful to see what you last opened) and now clears itself via
an effect watching the shared window-manager store, so closing a
window drops the highlight instead of leaving it pointing at nothing
— same fix applied to Knowledge Base's row highlight.
- Compact the entity-detail panel's padding (container + each
DetailSection) now that it's typically viewed in a small window
rather than a full-height sidebar.
- Fix KnowledgeBase's browse pane losing its flex-1/min-w-0 (and thus
full width) when the wrapping single-child div around it was removed
along with the old detail-pane split.

The clickable-button variant of relationRow was missing the truncate
class that the read-only span fallback already had — long slugs (task
UUIDs, exec IDs) rendered at their full pre-truncated length inside a
shrink-only flex item, overflowing the narrow detail sidebar and
wrapping to extra lines. Give both sides flex-1 + truncate so they
share the row's width evenly and always stay on one line.

fetchGraph({root, depth:1}) is backed by blast_radius, which only
walks outgoing edges — so it could never surface an edge some other
entity points at this one (e.g. host:hubris —hosts→ lxc:sophia) unless
that other entity happened to also be reachable going forward from
here. The Outgoing/Incoming split was filtering correctly, but
"Incoming" was starved of data by construction.
Switch to GET /entities/{id}/relations?direction=both — a dedicated
endpoint that matches on source_id OR target_id directly — via a new
fetchEntityRelations(). Simplifies the incoming/outgoing derivation
too, since every relation returned is now actually incident to the
entity (no more sibling-edge filtering needed).

Knowledge Base / Fleet browsing:
- EntityTable renders as a treegrid (arbitrary depth, expand/collapse,
ARIA row/level/expanded), grouped by parent-child relationships
derived entirely from the live ontology graph (cardinality ->
direction; typeDepth specificity for ties) rather than a hardcoded
relationship list — see loadFleetGrouping in KnowledgeBase.svelte.
- Fold Services and Storage categories into Fleet (services/pools/
volumes/datasets now nest under the compute entity or pool that
provides/contains them instead of having their own browsing tabs).
- Drop `cluster` entities from Fleet browsing so a host's `located-at`
(site) relationship wins the tree-parent slot without needing a
hardcoded priority override — member-of simply has no valid target
left to point at.
- Add a "show destroyed/inactive" Switch (default off) filtering on
entity.state, replacing an always-on checkbox.
Entity detail panel:
- Split the Relations section into Outgoing/Incoming groups (relative
to the viewed entity), and scope the section's count to edges
actually incident to it rather than the whole depth-1 neighborhood.
Dev experience:
- Auto-fill the SPA's token from the dev server's own OIKOS_API_TOKEN
(vite.config.ts define + main.ts, dev-only, only when unconfigured)
so the "Connect to Oikos" prompt doesn't reappear on every reload.
- .claude/launch.json: autoPort, since port 5173 is often already
claimed by another worktree's dev server.
Adds ui/checkbox and ui/switch (bits-ui primitives, following the
existing shadcn-svelte wrapper pattern) and fetchOntology()/
RelationshipTypeDef to api.ts. Also fixes a missing types.ts import
in api.ts (ChatEvent/MessageContent) that predates this branch.

5 warnings → 0:
1. ActivityTimeline.svelte:103 — replaced deprecated <svelte:component
this={icon}> with direct dynamic component rendering ({@const IconComp
= icon}<IconComp />). In Svelte 5 runes mode, components are dynamic by
default; <svelte:component> is unnecessary.
2. DetailSection.svelte:18 — 'let open = (defaultOpen)' captured only
the initial value. Changed to (false) + to sync with
defaultOpen prop changes.
3. EntitySheet.svelte:10 — 'let currentSlug = (slug)' had the same
issue. Changed to <string|null>(null) + (the was
already there, now the initial value doesn't reference the prop).
4. theme.svelte.ts:23 — 'applyClass(current)' at module level referenced a
variable, capturing only the initial value. Changed to apply the
plain storedTheme() result for initialization; setTheme() already calls
applyClass() on changes.
5. Chat.svelte:326 — unused CSS selector '.prose-chat
:global(:first-child):is(h1,h2,h3)' replaced with explicit
:global(> h1:first-child) etc. (the :first-child pseudo wasn't matching
because the scoped wrapper div is the actual first child).
Build is now warning-free.
Tool-renderer registry (21 files, ~1.5k lines):
- src/lib/tool-renderers.ts — registry + getToolRenderer (exported, never
imported anywhere)
- src/lib/renderers/index.ts + 10 .ts registrars + 10 .svelte components
- main.ts: removed the requestAnimationFrame(() => import('./lib/renderers'))
that was the only thing keeping the dead subsystem alive
Dead components (never imported):
- ToolCallGroup, PlanProgress, GoalHeader, InlineApproval, SessionDigest
Dead store exports (written, never read):
- context.ts: pendingApprovals writable (+ Approval type import)
- events.ts: connectionState writable (+ its .set() calls)
Dead API surface:
- api.ts: SessionDigest interface + fetchSessionDigest (only caller was the
dead SessionDigest.svelte)
Dead npm deps:
- mode-watcher (0 imports; superseded by stores/theme.svelte.ts)
- @internationalized/date (0 imports)
Also: fix stale comments referencing deleted symbols, update plan R1/R2
status. Build clean (4683 modules, down from 4706; one Svelte 5 warning
gone — the dead HealthSummary.svelte was emitting state_referenced_locally).
The approval entry type was removed from ActivityEntry upstream; this
case/import were unreachable leftovers after merging that change in.

- Plan/Activity panels: humanize step titles, richer icons, empty states
matching Scope's illustration style, pretty-printed expandable detail
- Activity log renamed to Event log; every step now expandable
- Chat: middle-truncate header title, remove redundant task-list rail and
header stat cluster (duplicated in the sidebar), simplify markdown styling
- Fix --font-mono actually being a monospace font (was aliased to DM Sans)
- Replace rotating loader-circle spinner with a smoother fading-blade Spinner
- SessionGraph entity detail panel: resizable and self-clamping against its
live container size (was overflowing into sibling sections), close button
- Dev launch config: fetch bearer token from the running api container so
`npm run dev` works against the local compose stack without a hardcoded
secret in a tracked file

- Terracotta (light) and Carbon (dark) themes with toggle
- Inknut Antiqua headings, DM Sans body
- Dot grid background on EntityGraph and GraphBackground
- Theme-adaptive graph colors on EntityGraph
- Art Nouveau chat styling (borders, underlines, blockquote quotes)
- Bullet point styles in chat prose
- Task goal in header, rename Overview→Tasks, New Task labels
- Logo uses var(--primary) for theme awareness
- activityLog now detects 'requires approval' in tool results
- Adds approval entries with shield icon + description + execution ID
- Works for both run and remaining approval paths
Backend:
- proposePlan sets plan window in autonomy_settings (nomos:plan:<session>)
- run handler checks plan window — auto-executes config_mutation commands
within plan without per-action approval
- planWindowActive function in server.go
- Plan window cleaned up on completeTask (already covered by LIKE '%:' || )
Frontend:
- Removed 'Session graph' header bar
- Cooler empty states: Plan shows animated dots + 'Awaiting plan…',

- Tool calls in Activity timeline are now tagged with current plan step
- Indented entries show which step they belong to
- Step tracking via update_plan_step(status=running) tool calls
- Removed inline tool renderers from chat (health summary, fleet snapshot, etc.)
— all tool output now visible only in sidebar Activity timeline
- TaskContextPanel restructured into 3 collapsible sections:
Scope (graph), Plan (goal + steps + progress), Activity (timeline)
- Collapsed headers show compact live status: 'Graph', 'Step X/N', 'N actions'
- Sections are vertically resizable via drag handles
- Plan section shows goal inline + step list + progress bar
- GoalHeader and PlanProgress no longer rendered separately
- ActivityTimeline header moved to TaskContextPanel
- New ActivityTimeline: unified timeline in sidebar showing all agent actions
(goal, plan steps, tool calls, knowledge, completion) in reverse chron order

- ToolCallGroup removed from chat — tools visible only in sidebar timeline
- SessionDigest replaced by ActivityTimeline
- PlanProgress restored in sidebar (conceptual steps, separate from timeline)
- New AgentIndicator component: replaces 3 separate indicators
(loading dots, ToolCallGroup summary, activity bar) with one
- Positioned as last item in message list — scrolls naturally
- Shows current tool action: 'Researching lxc:nfs-export…' etc
- Spinner during work, check on completion, X on error
- Fades out 3s after turn completes
- Activity bar, loading dots, statusLabel removed from Chat
- Continue button moved to sidebar session panel
- SessionDigest now includes live tool timeline, plan steps, knowledge
- ToolCallGroup compact: single-line with collapsible names only (no JSON)
- Activity bar moved to bottom of messages, smart scroll respects user position
- setGoal now sets status=executing (removed stuck planning state)
- PlanProgress merged into SessionDigest, removed from TaskContextPanel
- New toolTimeline derived store in chat.ts
12 of 33 MCP tools now render as rich inline cards instead of raw JSON:
EntityCard, HealthSummary, LXCList, EntityTable, KnowledgeResults,
BlastRadius, ChangeLog, FleetSnapshot, MetricChart.
Architecture:
- Server: annotateJSONResult() wraps queryRows with __renderer hints
- Registry: match/dispatch system maps tool names to Svelte components
- Chat: inline dispatch with 5-card limit, overflow to collapsed group
- ToolCallGroup: unmatched prop, hides when all matched, ARIA labels
Tests: 3 new Go tests for annotateJSONResult (wrap, no-op, multi-row).
Fresh nodes (no prior x/y) get placed by d3-force's default init, which
spirals out from the ORIGIN — not (width/2, height/2) — while the
centering forces here are deliberately weak (0.04, so they don't fight
the link/collide layout) and alphaDecay stops the sim before a weak force
can always pull a far-off cluster back to center. Net effect: graphs could
settle visibly off-center on load, cramped in a corner of the pane.
Fixed by computing the actual node bounding box once the simulation's
'end' event fires and setting the view transform to fit it, instead of
relying on the force balance to land on center by itself. Gated behind a
`fit` flag so passive background reloads (live entity/relationship
events) don't yank the view out from under someone actively panning or
zoomed in on a specific area — only fresh loads (mount, root/depth
change, reset, re-root) reframe.

Two bugs found while verifying against real production data:
- Excluded activity types (execution/check/task etc., see categories.ts)
were falling through inCategory's "unknown type -> always visible"
fallback, since typeCategory only stored entries whose category was
defined. That fallback exists for types the ontology never returned at
all; it wrongly re-admitted types the ontology returned but categories.ts
deliberately excludes. Fixed by storing every type (including undefined
categories) and checking key presence, not value truthiness.
- Once that was fixed, the previous commit's 1-hop neighbor expansion
(dimmed cross-category context) turned out fine for a rooted view but
flooded an unrooted "browse the whole category" view: Fleet's ~49 focus
entities are hub-like enough that 1-hop pulled in 325+ of the system's
479 total entities. Neighbor expansion now only applies when a root is
set; the unscoped view goes back to same-category-only edges, which
measured at a clean 49 nodes for Fleet.
Verified against live production data (real bearer token, real DB) rather
than mocks: Fleet unrooted = 49 nodes matching the DB's compute+physical
count exactly; rooting on host:strong shows 33 nodes with both bright
same-category and dimmed cross-category neighbors, no isolated dots.

Two fixes to the new category taxonomy:
- Knowledge Base couldn't show a document/investigation/runbook's own
markdown body — knowledge_entities.content was never exposed by any
endpoint (GetEntityKnowledge answers "what knowledge references this
entity", not "what is this entity's content"). Add GET
/api/v1/knowledge/content/{id} and render it with the existing
marked+DOMPurify pipeline in a new Content section.
- The graph hid any edge whose other endpoint wasn't in the active
category, so nodes with only cross-category neighbors rendered as
disconnected dots. Queried the real relationship table: ~70% of infra
edges cross Fleet/Network/Services/Storage lines (compute+network+
software+storage+physical used to be one "infrastructure" layer).
EntityGraph now keeps 1-hop neighbors visible but dimmed instead of
hiding them, so the edges — and what they connect to — stay visible.
- categories.ts: `cognition` domain conflated true knowledge (document/
investigation/runbook, 58 entities) with operational telemetry
(execution/check/task/signal/approval/pattern/skill/classification/
feedback, 300+ entities with their own Operations/Signals/Learning
pages). Mapping the whole domain to Knowledge pulled in 245 execution
entities fanning out from ~17 compute nodes via `targets` edges — the
single biggest source of graph clutter. Knowledge now maps by type
(document/investigation/runbook only); the rest of cognition is
excluded from Knowledge Base browsing entirely.

Replace the layer-based (Infrastructure/Governance/Cognition) browsing tabs
with a synthesized category taxonomy built from the ontology's finer-grained
`domain` field, since layer lumped unrelated entity types (an LXC and a DNS
record and a storage volume) into one bucket. Network and Fleet each span
two domains, so the table view now fans out per-domain fetches and merges,
while the graph view maps domain->category client-side. Also carries over
several detail-panel polish items (Tasks-not-raw-executions, slug URL
encoding, MultiSelectFilter) from earlier in this session.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replaces the separate Entities/Graph nav items with one Knowledge Base
page that browses all entities as either a table or a force-graph,
scoped by ontology layer (Infrastructure/Governance/Cognition), with a
resizable browse/detail split instead of a slide-over sheet.
- New KnowledgeBase.svelte: layer tabs, view toggle, resizable
browse/detail split (pattern from Chat.svelte's rail).
- EntityTable/EntityGraph extracted as presentational sub-components;
their search/filter/root/depth toolbars live in the shared page
toolbar (not the resizable pane) so they don't truncate when the
divider is dragged narrow, and both views start flush with the
detail pane for consistent height.
- EntityTable columns are sortable (slug/type/name/state/health).
- EntityDetailContent redesigned as a single-column list of
collapsible sections (DetailSection.svelte), collapsed by default
when empty; relation entries are clickable and select the entity in
the browse pane + detail pane (and drill in-place in EntitySheet
wherever it's used elsewhere in the app).
- api.ts: add layer filter to fetchEntities, add fetchEntityTypes for
client-side graph layer scoping (the graph endpoint has no layer
param).
Old hash routes (#/entities, #/graph) redirect to #/kb.

Overview replaces Tasks as the default route: a centered new-task entry
with live fleet metrics, a scrollable/filterable task table, and an
ambient canvas rendering of the real entity graph (autonomous camera
drift + mouse parallax) behind it. Tasks sidebar entry is removed;
its status-bucketing logic moves to lib/tasks.ts for reuse.

Events, Agent, and Audit were standalone read-only pages that never
cross-referenced the entity they related to. Fold them into EntityDetail
as entity-scoped cards (Agent activity, Audit trail) alongside the
existing Signals/Executions/Knowledge cards, and give the Signals card
real Ack/Mute/Resolve actions. Signals stays a standalone page since
it's the only one with cross-entity triage value (badge count, actions).
Also fixes the underlying reason those new cards would've stayed empty:
agent_activity rows were never tagged with entity_id at insert time
(cmd/nomos/store.go, internal/mcp/server.go), even though the column
and the API filter both support it. Added a best-effort resolver that
checks common tool-arg keys (target, entity_slug, slug, ...) against
the entities table.

Fixes the reviewed gaps: keyboard-inaccessible delete controls (SessionRail,
Entities row), case-sensitive entity filter, two competing entity-detail
navigation patterns (standardize on EntitySheet), non-clickable Overview KPI
cards, a bare button bypassing the shared Button component, inconsistent
blur-only vs live filtering, and an unenforced sanitization assumption on
search snippet HTML (now using the already-present dompurify dependency).

Replaces the chat right rail's ad-hoc Digest+Graph stack with a single
TaskContextPanel that renders the task's live working state, driven by the
always-on events stream (not the per-turn chat SSE) so it keeps updating
during server-side auto-continuation/resume:
- GoalHeader: goal + status pill (planning/executing/awaiting_input/done/
failed), sourced from the sessions list.
- PlanProgress: ordered steps with live status icons + progress bar, hydrated
via new GET /sessions/{id}/plan; clicking a step with a target opens its
EntitySheet (no fake "jump to transcript" — bits-ui Collapsible content
isn't force-mounted, so a DOM-scroll jump would silently no-op for
collapsed tool groups).
- OperatorQuestion: the pinned structured question card (prompt/why/entity
chips/option buttons/free-text), hydrated via new GET /sessions/{id}/
questions; answering POSTs to the existing answer endpoint.
- SessionGraph upgraded to a live entity panel: entity.touched pulses the
node (animated ring) and shows "Now touching <slug>"; health.changed shows
a transient diff badge for touched entities.
- SessionDigest gains a success/failure/partial outcome banner and now also
refetches when the task's status changes, not just on session switch.
Two bugs found and fixed while wiring this up:
- workspace.ts's status-refresh trigger only covered goal.set/task.status;
question.raised/answered didn't refresh the sessions list, so GoalHeader's
pill went stale after answering via the panel (resumeSession runs entirely
server-side — no client 'done' event to piggyback a refresh on). Now every
status-affecting event triggers the (debounced) refetch.
- Forgot to rebuild the nomos container after adding the /plan and
/questions endpoints, so they silently fell through to the old default GET
handler — caught via a live curl diff against the running container,
not a code read.
Verified end-to-end against the live stack: goal/plan/question all update
without a reload as the agent works; answering a question via the panel
resumes the agent and the header pill correctly flips to Executing;
entity.touched pulses the live graph.

Pending-approval cards showed target and risk but not what else the
action would affect — the operator approved config_mutation/destructive
commands blind to downstream impact, even though the graph-walk
(blast_radius() SQL, GetBlastRadius endpoint) already existed and was
just never wired into the approval path.
Fetch it once per pending approval and render "Affects N downstream: …"
on both the normal and destructive approval cards, reusing the existing
fetchBlastRadius() API client function which was already written but
unused anywhere.

Ops "Executions" tab showed raw target UUIDs, alphabetical (not
recency) order, and a stale status vocabulary from an earlier schema
iteration — never actually usable as a live "what's happening" view.
Replaced with a new recency-ordered /api/v1/activity/recent endpoint
and matching table (human-readable action summaries, risk/status
badges, duration, inline error preview).
Also added /api/v1/activity/session/{id} + a collapsible SessionDigest
panel in the chat rail, answering "what did this session actually do"
(executions by status, entities touched, knowledge written) — the
missing piece for proactive outcome reporting to be visible in the UI,
not just in the chat transcript.

Root cause of "running for 10+ minutes without stopping": a real production
execution (TypeType pct_create) was found genuinely stuck 17+ minutes into a
single blocking SSH call. The container's post_install script was looping on
`getent hosts deb.debian.org`, waiting on a network that could never come up
— the operator's static IP config used gw:192.168.8.1, but the actual gateway
on that subnet is 192.168.8.2, so every network call hung instead of failing
fast (packets dropped, not rejected).
Two compounding bugs made this unrecoverable without manual intervention:
1. sshExec (both internal/httpapi/phase3.go and internal/mcp/server.go) had
NO execution timeout — `session.CombinedOutput()` blocks until the remote
command exits, with no deadline. A hung remote process blocks the Go
goroutine forever; the execution can never leave 'running', and the
operator has no way to make it stop. Fixed: both now race the SSH call
against a 10-minute hard timeout, closing the session/client and
returning a clear "timed out after 10m0s" error if exceeded. (The
mcp/server.go copy also still had the original "swallowed non-zero exit"
bug from before that fix was applied to httpapi's copy only — fixed here
too.)
2. provisionScript's DNS-wait loop assumed `getent hosts` fails fast on no
connectivity — it doesn't; a black-holed network can make each call hang
far past the resolver's nominal timeout, so the documented "~90s" budget
was never real. Wrapped every attempt in `timeout 3` so the wall-clock
budget is now actually enforced (~2min worst case), and the failure
message now suggests checking the net0 gateway.
Also fixes the matching UI-side gap (operator's literal question: "is there
a way to get more details? it has been running for 10+ minutes without
stopping"):
- InlineApproval's track() polling loop had its own ~6min ceiling and simply
STOPPED polling after that — silently going stale before the backend (now
correctly capped at 10min) could ever resolve. Raised to a 14min ceiling
with margin, and added a distinct 'stalled' state if that's ever exceeded
(explicitly says something's wrong, rather than freezing silently).
- The running-card now shows live elapsed time (ticking, from the
execution's created_at), the actual command being run, and the execution
ID — previously just a static "this can take a minute" with zero
information. Also added command display to the destructive pending-
approval card for full transparency before confirming.
Verified live end-to-end in a real browser (dev server proxying to
production): queued a real command via chat, approved via the button,
watched the elapsed-time counter tick in real time, and saw it transition to
a completed card with real output once the command finished.

Root cause of "chat gave me no further feedback — had to go to Ops": two
compounding bugs, found by reading the actual production session transcript.
1. InlineApproval.svelte — all of last session's live-status/self-heal work —
was never imported or rendered anywhere. Chat.svelte had its own separate,
much dumber approval bar (no status tracking, no destructive handling, just
silently disappears after clicking) that WAS the one users actually saw.
Deleted the dead bar and its state; InlineApproval now renders per-message.
2. chat.ts's extractApprovals hardcoded `tool.name === 'request_execution'`,
so any approval raised by the newer `run` tool was invisible — no card, no
feedback, nothing to self-heal, forcing the operator to the Ops page with
zero acknowledgement in the conversation. This was the actual proximate
cause of last night's destroy-135 session. Fixed to match on response
shape, not tool name, so it doesn't silently break again for the next new
gated tool.
3. Nomos was telling operators "type something like 'I confirm destroy 135'"
for destructive actions (SOUL.md) but no backend path ever consumed that
phrase — chat-assent explicitly (and correctly) excludes destructive from
loose assent, but I never built the alternative. Added
isTypedConfirmation() (cmd/nomos/assent.go): stricter than loose assent,
requires an explicit "confirm" statement, only applies to destructive-
flagged pending approvals.
4. InlineApproval's completed-state hardcoded "Provisioned successfully" —
wrong/confusing for a destroy or arbitrary `run` command. Now says
"Completed on <target>" and shows the actual command output, verified live
against the real destroy-135 execution.
Verified live in a real browser against the production API/DB (dev server
proxying to :8090): the historical stuck session now retroactively renders
both executions as resolved with correct wording and real output.

Implements the first slice of plans/2026-07-10-general-gated-execution.md:
Nomos gets one general execution tool instead of only a fixed action enum,
gated by an automatic risk classifier, and approval can be granted by the
operator just replying in chat instead of clicking a button.
- internal/policy/command.go: ClassifyCommand(cmd, declaredRisk) — rule-based
read-only allowlist + destructive denylist, default-escalate to
config_mutation for anything else. Classification can only ESCALATE the
caller's declared risk, never de-escalate it (destructive always wins even
if declared read_only). Compound commands (&&, ;, |, $()) never qualify for
the read-only fast path. Full test corpus.
- internal/mcp/server.go: new `run` MCP tool — target (host:/lxc:), command,
purpose, optional declared_risk. Read-only commands execute immediately;
everything else queues an approval exactly like pct_create today, executed
via httpapi's existing executeApprovedAction. Also fixes a real latent bug:
pct_exec resolved an LXC's host attribute without the "host:" prefix, so it
could never find the Proxmox host — new resolveExecTarget/resolveRunTarget
helpers (mcp + httpapi) fix this for both the new `run` action and existing
actions that route through the same execution path.
- internal/httpapi/phase3.go: "run" case in executeApprovedAction; fixes two
bugs found while wiring this up — (1) DecideApproval hardcoded risk_class to
'config_mutation' on every approve, silently corrupting the audit ledger for
every other risk class; (2) denying/revoking an approval never updated the
linked execution's status, so it stayed 'pending_approval' forever instead
of reflecting the decision.
- cmd/nomos/assent.go: deterministic (not LLM-judged) chat-assent detection.
Scoped to the immediately-preceding assistant turn's pending approvals only
— an old "yes" can't retroactively approve something new. Destructive-risk
actions are excluded from loose assent. Approves via the same HTTP decision
endpoint the UI button calls, so both paths share one audit trail.
- web/.../InlineApproval.svelte: self-healing poll — a pending approval card
now picks up being decided via ANY path (chat assent, Ops page, Matrix), not
just its own button. Previously the banner stayed stuck showing
Approve/Deny even after the action had already run elsewhere.
- nomos/SOUL.md: `run` is now the general capability ("no fixed menu, only a
risk gate"); documents chat-assent behavior and the destructive exception.

Production session provisioned the container but the service never installed:
apt failed with "Temporary failure resolving deb.debian.org" — a static-IP LXC
whose assigned nameserver couldn't resolve. The operator also got zero feedback:
the approval banner just sat there with no running/complete/failed status.
Backend robustness (provisionScript):
- Wait for real DNS/connectivity inside the container before apt, and self-heal
/etc/resolv.conf to a public resolver (1.1.1.1/8.8.8.8) if the assigned one
is dead. `set -e` after the gate so apt/post_install failures surface.
- apt-get update/install with Acquire::Retries=3.
Frontend feedback (InlineApproval):
- After approve, poll GET /executions/{id} and show live phase: submitting →
provisioning… → provisioned successfully / execution failed (with the error).
- add getExecution() to api.ts.
Agent guidance (SOUL.md):
- omit vmid (auto-assigned), prefer dhcp, docker-compose-plugin is not in Debian
(use docker.io + get.docker.com), end post_install with a health check.

Real production failure when the operator clicked Approve in chat: nothing
provisioned, banner never cleared, execution marked completed.
Three root causes:
- sshExec swallowed non-zero exits when the command produced output, so a
`pct create` that printed "CT 132 already exists" and failed was reported
as success and a bogus lxc entity was registered. Now any non-zero exit
returns an error (with output) so the execution is correctly marked failed.
- The LLM reused VMID 132 (belongs to lxc:rclone; VMIDs are cluster-wide).
pct_create now checks in-use VMIDs via `pvesh get /cluster/resources` and
falls back to `pvesh get /cluster/nextid` when the requested id is taken.
- InlineApproval.svelte reset its state on every prop change (done was also
compared against the wrong string), so the banner never cleared and each
click re-POSTed /decision. Rewritten to track outcome per executionId,
clear on success, and block resubmits.

- Replace text-based regex parsing in InlineApproval with structured
pendingApprovals extracted from request_execution tool results. The tool
result text is deterministic (not LLM-generated), making UUID extraction
reliable regardless of how the LLM rephrases the response.
- Fix ToolCallGroup reactivity: wasActive = active captured initial
value. Now uses (active) so re-runs on prop changes.
- Extract approvals in both live streaming (done event) and history loading
for consistent behavior on resumed sessions.
