Root cause of "asks permission but never acts": the approved pct_create
execution failed to parse because the LLM emitted `"privileged":0` /
`"nesting":1` (numbers) into strict `bool` fields, so the container was
never created. Compounded by a hardcoded template name (debian-13.0-1)
that no longer exists on the host, and no way for the agent to read the web.
- flexBool: accept 0/1, "true", bool for privileged/nesting (the exact prod failure)
- pct_create template pre-flight: list host cache, validate/auto-pick newest debian
- pct_create services[] + post_install: one approval provisions a working service
- new http_get MCP tool (sanitized, size-capped, SSRF-guarded) — agent can read repos/sites
- request_execution description: target=host, full JSON schema + example
- SOUL.md: agent CAN fetch the web; prefer one-step provisioning
- default model deepseek-v4-flash -> v4-pro; maxIterations 15 -> 25
- unit tests for flexBool, template resolve, pkg sanitize, HTML sanitize + SSRF block
Verified live on host:strong with a throwaway VMID 999: template auto-resolved,
container created + booted, services installed, post_install ran, then destroyed.

- Add dedup in request_execution: check entities(type,name) uniqueness before
creating duplicate executions. Returns 'already queued' message to the LLM,
preventing tool-calling loops.
- Fix createApproval JSON payload: use json.Marshal instead of fmt.Sprintf
to escape params (could contain unescaped double quotes from JSON config).
- Add ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING to entity/execution inserts for dedup race safety.
- Persistent approval bar at top of Chat.svelte: aggregates pendingApprovals
from all messages, fixed position (won't scroll away). Approve/deny/approve-all.
- Update SOUL.md: agent must STOP after queuing a gated action.
- Fix ToolCallGroup reactivity: wasActive = (active).
- Empty/refusal responses retried once, then surfaced as errors instead of silent blanks
- Chinese refusal boilerplate detected via denylist + non-ASCII heuristic
- Bulk-tool preference added to SOUL.md (list_lxcs over per-entity get_lxc_state)
- Tool results truncated to 4KB on persist; get_state_snapshot filters null-state entities
- Session delete (DELETE /sessions/{id} + confirm-on-second-click UI)
- Session titles auto-generated from assistant answer instead of raw user message
