+## Unreleased
+
+- Added Cursor, MiniMax Code, Devin and Antigravity agents (PR #63).
+- Added provider API keys, API profiles and agent-to-agent delegation through the orchestration MCP (PR #64).
+- Added saved SSH servers with automatic placement, remote terminals and agents, data-handling classes D0–D3 and several accounts per provider (PR #65).
+- Added task capsules, isolated worktrees and Docker/Podman container runs on this computer and on servers (PRs #66 and #67).
+- Added ACP conversations for Kimi, Cursor and MiniMax Code, plus account connection settings (PR #67).
+- Added project context: scoped rules, convention imports and learning from explicit corrections (PR #68).
+- Added opt-in launch routing with rules and Jev, reasoning effort, one-click server preparation, per-launch API-key forwarding and sign-in through the app (PR #69).
+- The plugin showcase works without a GitHub account; signing in is optional and only raises GitHub's limits (issue #22). The HOME clock shows the date (issue #53).
+- The default session denies web permissions, a crashed renderer reloads, long agent answers keep their turn, and the secret audit also checks the built bundle (from PRs #35 and #51).
+
 ## 1.5.2
 
 - Fixed terminal history jumping to the beginning when Codex clears and redraws its history after a card resize. Readers retain their relative scroll position, while terminals at the bottom continue following new output.

 - `src/main/services/LimitsService.ts` reads Codex through the installed CLI's app-server protocol and Claude, Kimi, OpenCode Go, and Grok Build through their provider usage or billing endpoints. Qwen Code is multi-provider and exposes no provider-neutral read-only quota protocol, so its adapter reports `cli-not-found` or `unsupported-protocol` and never invents percentages. Provider credentials are read only inside the trusted main process, sent only to the matching provider over HTTPS, and never logged or exposed over IPC. The service owns timeout, structural normalization, caching, stale fallback, and subprocess cleanup; raw provider responses never cross IPC.
 - `src/main/services/SettingsStore.ts` normalizes every update and persists through a serialized atomic write. Canvas regions and sticky notes have independent persistence gates: disabling one keeps its live objects for the current process but omits that collection from the disk snapshot and therefore from the next launch. The configurable canvas launcher and UI scale use the same boundary; transient window stacking does not.
 - `src/main/services/PluginManager.ts` installs ready-to-run repositories without executing package scripts during install/update, rejects symlinks and oversized packages, persists the enabled registry, serves only contained package files, and enforces per-plugin permissions/storage quotas. Optional native agent-hook entries remain off by default; explicit per-hook trust is persisted in the plugin registry and compiled into a separate private atomic runtime registry. Update, module replacement, plugin disable, and uninstall revoke that trust before executable files change.
-- `src/main/services/PluginSecretsService.ts` serializes per-plugin secret writes, encrypts the complete bounded payload through Electron `safeStorage`, rejects plaintext-only backends, and removes each encrypted file on uninstall.
+- `src/main/services/PluginSecretsService.ts` serializes per-plugin secret writes, encrypts the complete bounded payload through Electron `safeStorage`, rejects plaintext-only backends, and removes each encrypted file on uninstall. `ProviderSecretsService.ts` applies the same architecture to provider API keys for BYOK-capable CLIs: values stay in the main process, and the renderer contract exposes only per-key `configured` flags plus set/clear actions. `ApiProfile` settings entries name model backends (protocol, HTTPS base URL, secret reference) for the same BYOK runtimes; they are not agent providers, and the settings normalizer drops invalid profiles instead of repairing them.
 - `src/main/services/PluginMediaService.ts` persists per-plugin grants only after a native folder choice, hides absolute paths, skips symlinks, and serves contained audio with HTTP Range semantics. Playlist reads stay inside granted libraries; writes are bounded and atomic under the library's `Playlists/` directory.
 - `src/main/services/HermesHudService.ts` is the only plugin-facing native application controller. It resolves the installed Hermes CLI through the immutable provider registry, sends only the fixed `--hud`/`--quit` control commands, and derives visible state from Hermes Desktop's validated live runtime record. It never accepts executable paths, arguments, PIDs, or arbitrary commands from plugin code.
 - `src/main/services/BrowserService.ts` is the only owner of the built-in browser's `WebContentsView` tabs and shared persistent partition. Remote pages have no preload or Node access, keep context isolation and sandbox enabled, and cannot request hardware, location, notification, clipboard-read, certificate-bypass, or external-protocol capabilities. HTTP(S) popups are adopted as internal tabs; other schemes are rejected.
@@ -48,7 +48,7 @@ Electron main process
 - `src/main/services/agent-runtime/` is a separate lifecycle boundary and is not controlled by the Browser access switch. When CanvasTTY status hooks are enabled, every agent PTY receives a distinct capability for a protected user-local socket/pipe. Provider command hooks and the OpenCode event plugin may report only the fixed status enum, bounded event name, and optional opaque turn/prompt ID; prompt text, responses, tool input, and arbitrary telemetry are rejected by the exact gateway schema. Electron helper commands carry `ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE=1` inside the exact hook command only; the provider PTY never inherits that process-mode flag, so a provider cannot accidentally launch a second CanvasTTY GUI instance. The user can revoke this capability from Agents settings, immediately returning live agent status to `unavailable`; re-enabling requires a new/restarted PTY. Explicitly trusted plugin hooks use a separate process runner which re-checks the private PluginManager registry on every invocation and strips CanvasTTY internal capabilities before passing the provider payload to third-party code. Provider-native review remains an independent gate; CanvasTTY does not bypass Codex hook trust globally.
 - Lifecycle adapters use launch-only settings for Claude, Codex, Qwen, and OpenCode. Kimi, Hermes, and Grok, whose hook discovery is home-config based, receive ownership-checked temporary entries shared across live CanvasTTY sessions. Kimi and Hermes keep recovery journals and exact backups; Grok uses a dedicated owned hook file. Cleanup restores exact original bytes when no concurrent edit occurred and otherwise removes only CanvasTTY-owned entries.
 - `TerminalManager` injects the MCP helper per launch without leaving permanent provider configuration. Claude Code, Codex, and Qwen Code receive CLI arguments; Qwen gets one inline `--mcp-config` entry that overrides only the CanvasTTY server name and leaves unrelated user servers available. OpenCode receives a merged launch-only `OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT` entry plus one scoped browser-tool permission; Kimi uses its per-run MCP configuration when supported. Older Kimi versions receive a compare-and-swap temporary CanvasTTY entry and one exact permission rule with an atomic recovery journal. Hermes receives a temporary `mcp_servers.canvastty_browser` entry in `HERMES_HOME/config.yaml` (defaulting to `~/.hermes/config.yaml` on POSIX or `%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\config.yaml` on Windows); sensitive capability values stay as child-environment placeholders. Temporary Kimi and Hermes configuration remains until the final owning PTY session ends, then exact original bytes are restored when safe. A journal repairs an interrupted Hermes launch at the next CanvasTTY startup, while compare-and-swap checks preserve concurrent user edits. Unrelated MCP entries, credentials, and file/shell permissions are preserved. Qwen, OpenCode, and Hermes YOLO remain launch-only and do not change persistent permission settings.
-- `src/main/services/providerCliRegistry.ts` is the single owner of provider CLI discovery. During main-process startup it creates a shared snapshot for Codex, Claude, Qwen Code, Kimi, OpenCode, Hermes, Grok Build, OMP, and Pi by checking smoke-only overrides, the inherited `PATH`, platform defaults, and known per-user/provider directories in that order. Available entries retain an absolute executable, launcher kind, and supplemented child `PATH`; POSIX entries must be executable files and Windows entries must be supported native or batch launchers. `TerminalManager`, `LimitsService`, agent-browser probes, and provider smoke tests consume that same snapshot and never repeat command lookup. Missing entries produce a failed session with copyable checked-path diagnostics before PTY or temporary browser configuration creation, while the limit adapter reports `cli-not-found`; its HOME row is hidden until explicitly selected after CLI detection. CanvasTTY never reads shell startup scripts. Agents settings can recheck candidate paths, atomically replace the registry snapshot, reconcile saved launcher and limit selections, and refresh CLI-bound adapters without restarting the app. Existing sessions keep running; a newly found CLI remains disabled until selected.
+- `src/main/services/providerCliRegistry.ts` is the single owner of provider CLI discovery. During main-process startup it creates a shared snapshot for every provider in `PROVIDER_CLI_DEFINITIONS` — each definition declares the executable command names it may install as (which may differ from the provider ID, e.g. a provider shipping as `mcode`) and optional known home-relative or Windows LOCALAPPDATA-relative directories — by checking smoke-only overrides, the inherited `PATH`, platform defaults, and those known directories in that order. Available entries retain an absolute executable, launcher kind, and supplemented child `PATH`; POSIX entries must be executable files and Windows entries must be supported native or batch launchers. `TerminalManager`, `LimitsService`, agent-browser probes, and provider smoke tests consume that same snapshot and never repeat command lookup. Missing entries produce a failed session with copyable checked-path diagnostics before PTY or temporary browser configuration creation, while the limit adapter reports `cli-not-found`; its HOME row is hidden until explicitly selected after CLI detection. Launchers keep a provider without a local CLI visible when an account bound to a remote computer or a saved container profile provides another route. CanvasTTY never reads shell startup scripts. Agents settings can recheck candidate paths, atomically replace the registry snapshot, reconcile saved launcher and limit selections, and refresh CLI-bound adapters without restarting the app. Existing sessions keep running; a newly found CLI remains disabled until selected.
 
 The primary `BrowserWindow` is created and shown with a lightweight local startup page before settings, plugins, media, and IPC services initialize. Successful initialization replaces that page with the trusted renderer; bootstrap failures replace it with a visible error page and retain a native-dialog fallback. The main process holds Electron's single-instance lock; a rejected second launch raises the running window through the `second-instance` handler so the app never appears to ignore a launch, while background plugin and browser requests never restore, show, or focus an existing window. Native browser contents are focused programmatically only while their owner `BrowserWindow` is already focused; explicit user pointer input remains the only cross-surface focus route.

Записи настроек `ApiProfile` именуют model-бэкенды (протокол, HTTPS base URL, ссылка на секрет) для тех же BYOK-рантаймов; это не agent providers, а normalizer настроек отбрасывает невалидные профили вместо «ремонта».

Удалённые страницы используют отдельный persistent partition с выключенным Node, включёнными context isolation/sandbox и отклонением website permissions по умолчанию. Это core service, а не возможность runtime-плагина.
 - `src/main/services/agent-runtime/` — отдельная всегда включённая lifecycle-граница, не зависящая от переключателя Browser access. Каждый agent PTY получает собственный capability для защищённого user-local socket/pipe. Provider command hooks и OpenCode event plugin могут передать только фиксированный status enum, ограниченное имя события и необязательный opaque turn/prompt ID; точная schema Gateway отклоняет prompt text, ответы, tool input и произвольную telemetry. При завершении PTY capability и временные файлы отзываются.
 - Claude, Codex, Qwen и OpenCode получают lifecycle hooks только на текущий запуск. Для Kimi, Hermes и Grok, которые ищут hooks в home-конфигурации, используются ownership-checked временные записи с совместным владением живых сессий. Kimi и Hermes используют recovery journals и точные backups, Grok — отдельный owned hook file; cleanup восстанавливает исходные байты или удаляет только записи CanvasTTY при конкурентных изменениях.
 - `TerminalManager` подмешивает MCP helper, не оставляя постоянных изменений в provider-конфигах. Claude Code, Codex и Qwen Code получают CLI arguments; Qwen получает одну inline-запись `--mcp-config`, которая переопределяет только имя сервера CanvasTTY и не скрывает сторонние user servers. OpenCode — объединённый launch-only `OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT` с одной scoped browser-tool permission, Kimi — per-run MCP config или временную запись с compare-and-swap и recovery journal для старых версий. Hermes получает временную запись `mcp_servers.canvastty_browser` в `HERMES_HOME/config.yaml` (по умолчанию `~/.hermes/config.yaml` в POSIX или `%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\config.yaml` в Windows); чувствительные capability-значения остаются ссылками на окружение дочернего процесса. Временная конфигурация Kimi и Hermes живёт до завершения последней владеющей PTY-сессии, после чего исходные байты точно восстанавливаются, если файл не менялся параллельно. Journal восстанавливает Hermes после прерванного запуска при следующем старте CanvasTTY, а compare-and-swap сохраняет одновременные пользовательские изменения.

+# ADR: Orchestration MCP Rides the Agent-Bridge Pattern, Gated by Session Role
+
+**Date:** 2026-09-21
+**Scope / Component:** heterogeneous subagents, agent bridge protocol, session hierarchy
+**Risk/Strictness Profile:** Production (implementation pending)
+**Status:** Accepted (core gateway landed; helper and per-provider config injection pending)
+
+**Related:** [ADR: Declarative Provider CLI Command Definitions](./ADR-20260921-provider-cli-command-definitions.md)
+**Implementation (landed prerequisites):** [`AgentControlService`](../../src/main/services/AgentControlService.ts), [`TerminalManager`](../../src/main/services/TerminalManager.ts) session roles, `PROVIDER_CAPABILITIES` in [`contracts.ts`](../../src/shared/contracts.ts)
+
+## Context and Problem Statement
+
+Roadmap Stage 2 delivers heterogeneous subagents: an orchestrator agent (Codex, Claude, any
+provider) must be able to spawn, prompt, observe, and collect results from other providers'
+sessions (`Codex → CanvasTTY → Cursor subagent`). B1–B3 landed the substrate — session roles
+and parents, per-provider capability truth, and `AgentControlService` implementing
+spawn/send/status/observe/result/cancel/children over ordinary terminal sessions.
+
+What remains is the agent-facing surface: the orchestrator's CLI must discover an MCP server
+offering `spawn_agent`, `send_to_agent`, `observe_agent`, `get_agent_result`, `cancel_agent`,
+and `list_agents`. CanvasTTY already runs exactly one such pattern in production: the browser
+bridge gives agent PTYs a stdio MCP helper (`src/agent-browser/mcp-helper.mjs`) that forwards
+tool calls over an authenticated user-local socket/pipe to a main-process gateway, with
+one-use bootstrap capabilities, session-scoped reconnect capabilities, heartbeats, payload
+caps, and per-provider MCP config injection (`ProviderLaunch.ts`).
+
+The decision is whether orchestration gets its own transport/protocol stack, or reuses the
+agent-bridge architecture with a second tool surface.
+
+## Decision Drivers
+
+- An orchestrator PTY is the same trust boundary as a browser-capable agent PTY: untrusted
+  model output driving tool calls, authenticated per session, revoked at PTY end.
+- Two parallel socket protocols, capability schemes, and helper processes would double the
+  security surface for no architectural gain.
+- Only sessions the user (or a future UI) marks `role=orchestrator` may receive the surface;
+  interactive sessions must not silently gain spawn powers.
+- `AgentControlService` already enforces capability truth and the per-parent fan-out cap;
+  the MCP layer must not bypass it with its own path to `TerminalManager`.
+- Roadmap rule: no background processes when the feature is unused. An orchestrator-only
+  surface means zero overhead for ordinary sessions.
+
+## Options Considered
+
+### A dedicated orchestration daemon (TCP port or resident helper)
+
+Rejected: opens a listening port, survives outside the owning PTY's lifetime, and violates
+the no-daemon/no-port invariants the browser bridge was hardened to avoid.
+
+### Orchestrator drives TerminalManager directly over renderer IPC
+
+Rejected: the orchestrator is a CLI process inside a PTY; it has no renderer access, and
+exposing session control to arbitrary renderer origins would widen the surface for web
+content and plugins.
+
+## Decision Outcome
+
+The orchestration MCP is a **second tool surface on the agent-bridge architecture**:
+
+1. A new tool catalog (`agent_*` tools) served by the same stdio MCP helper pattern as
+   `canvastty_browser`; the helper is a stateless protocol adapter.
+2. The existing gateway gains an `orchestration` dispatch path routed to
+   `AgentControlService`, which remains the only writer. Tool calls are scoped to the
+   authenticated connection's `terminalSessionId`: `spawn_agent` parents to it, and
+   `children`/`send`/`observe`/`result`/`cancel` accept only that connection's descendant
+   sessions. No tool ever names an unrelated session.
+3. Bootstrap capability injection happens at PTY launch exactly as the browser bridge does
+   today (one-use, rotated to session-scoped, revoked at exit), but only for sessions whose
+   metadata role is `orchestrator`.
+4. Per-provider MCP config injection follows `ProviderLaunch.ts`'s existing adapters
+   (CLI args for Claude/Codex/Qwen, inline config for OpenCode, owned temp entries for
+   Kimi/Hermes), gated on the same role.
+5. Fan-out and depth limits stay in `AgentControlService` (16 children per parent today;
+   configurable budgets arrive with roadmap F1). The MCP layer adds no limits of its own.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- One transport, capability scheme, and helper codebase to audit; orchestration inherits
+  the browser bridge's hardening (payload caps, heartbeats, exact-user pipes on Windows).
+- The browser gateway's protocol version must be bumped when the catalog grows; helpers
+  older than the protocol version keep working for browser tools.
+- `PROVIDER_CAPABILITIES.send=false` providers cannot be spawned even by an orchestrator;
+  the tool result must say so rather than degrade silently.
+
+## Invariants
+
+- Interactive sessions never receive orchestration capabilities.
+- The authenticated connection's session id is the only parenting context; cross-session
+  access is a protocol error, not a filter.
+- `AgentControlService` is the sole mutation path; the gateway holds no session state.
+- Disabled feature ⇒ zero helper processes, sockets, or injected MCP configuration.
+
+## Test Plan (for the implementing PR)
+
+- Gateway: role gating (interactive session's tool call rejected), scope enforcement
+  (foreign session id rejected), capability lifecycle mirroring the browser bridge tests.
+- End-to-end: spawn → send → observe → result over the real helper socket, cancel revokes.
+- Provider launch: orchestrator config injected only for `role=orchestrator`; interactive
+  launches byte-identical to before.

+# ADR: Declarative Provider CLI Command Definitions
+
+**Date:** 2026-09-21
+**Scope / Component:** provider CLI discovery (`providerCliRegistry.ts`)
+**Risk/Strictness Profile:** Production
+**Status:** Proposed
+
+**Implementation:** [`providerCliRegistry.ts`](../../src/main/services/providerCliRegistry.ts)
+
+## Context and Problem Statement
+
+Provider resolution historically derived every candidate path from the provider ID itself:
+`codex` → `<dir>/codex`, `qwen` → `<dir>/qwen`. Per-provider knowledge lived in an
+`if (provider === …)` chain inside `knownProviderDirectories` (OpenCode, Kimi, Grok home
+directories, the Codex Windows LOCALAPPDATA path). That coupling is already false for incoming
+providers: MiniMax Code installs as `mcode`, Cursor as `agent`, Google Antigravity as `agy`.
+Without a change, each such provider would grow a new special case in the resolution loop, and
+`executable === provider` would remain a hidden invariant no type enforces.
+
+## Decision Drivers
+
+- Adding a provider whose executable differs from its ID must not require changes to the
+  resolution algorithm, only data.
+- Existing providers must keep resolving to byte-identical executables, candidate orders, and
+  child `PATH` values.
+- The registry stays an immutable, startup-once snapshot; nothing here may introduce per-launch
+  lookups.
+- Definitions are trusted, in-repo configuration: structural mistakes (duplicate provider,
+  empty command list) should fail fast and loudly rather than silently resolve nothing.
+
+## Options Considered
+
+### Keep the ID-derived mapping and add per-provider overrides where needed
+
+Each new mismatched provider adds both a `commands` special case and possibly a directory
+special case. Rejected: the special-case count grows with every provider and the invariant
+stays implicit.
+
+### Resolve through the user's shell (`which`/`where`) per launch
+
+Rejected earlier and unchanged: startup-once resolution without shell startup scripts is a
+documented product invariant.
+
+## Decision Outcome
+
+Resolution is driven by `ProviderCliDefinition`:
+
+```ts
+interface ProviderCliDefinition {
+  id: AgentProviderId;
+  commands: readonly string[];
+  knownDirectories?: readonly ProviderCliKnownDirectory[];
+}
+```
+
+`PROVIDER_CLI_DEFINITIONS` is a frozen, exhaustive `Record<AgentProviderId, …>` — adding a
+provider to the union without a definition is a compile error. Candidate generation walks
+directories in the established order (inherited `PATH`, platform defaults, known provider
+directories, shared user directories) and, within each directory, tries each command in
+declaration order with each platform launcher extension. `knownDirectories` replaces the
+`if`-chain with `home`-relative and Windows `LOCALAPPDATA`-relative specifiers resolved at
+startup. `createProviderCliRegistry` accepts an optional `definitions` override used by tests
+to exercise definitions for providers not yet in the union; production always passes none.
+
+Definitions with an empty `commands` list or duplicate IDs throw at registry creation.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- The executable may legitimately differ from the provider ID; consumers already work from
+  `AvailableProviderCli.executable`, so no downstream change is needed.
+- Command declaration order is a real priority within one directory: the first listed command
+  wins when several are installed in the same directory.
+- Per-provider directory knowledge is now reviewable data instead of control flow; a reviewer
+  can diff provider support without reading the resolution algorithm.
+
+## Invariants
+
+- With default definitions, every pre-existing provider resolves exactly as before this change
+  (same executable, same candidate order, same child `PATH`).
+- A provider with no definition cannot compile into the union; a definition without commands
+  cannot create a registry.

+# Docker and Podman overview
+
+Open **Settings → Execution → Containers** and choose **Refresh status**. The overview groups saved profiles sharing a host and engine endpoint, shows existing containers, and checks each profile's existing image. Filter by computer or search by container name, image, ID or state. Remote profiles use their configured SSH host and fixed Python helper. No separate Docker TCP listener is required.
+
+The overview is on demand. It does not pull images or start engines/virtual machines. Concurrent checks share bounded probes; main-process facts have a five-second cache, and the refresh button requests fresh facts. Leaving the view discards late replies. Only supported, verified engine endpoints are shown as available.
+
+Up to 64 recent containers are shown per engine. A notice identifies incomplete coverage. Rows expose only ID, name, image, state and status. Engine command lines, environment, mounts and raw diagnostic output are excluded. An unavailable image does not hide a readable engine inventory.
+
+“CanvasTTY record” identifies an exact saved generation on the selected profile, endpoint and engine. This badge is informational. Overview rows have no start, stop or remove actions. Existing retained-generation controls still perform their full ownership and current-identity checks before cleanup or output review. Other containers remain read only.
+
+The read-only commands use documented projection and row limits: [Docker container ls](https://docs.docker.com/reference/cli/docker/container/ls/) and [Podman ps](https://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-ps.1.html). Local and SSH execution share the same projected fields, strict response validation and engine identity checks around listing.
+
+## Automatic launch across computers
+
+In an agent's launcher choose **Containers → Automatically by load**. Leave the account as **Any eligible API account**, or select one to constrain placement. **Check route** shows the current profile, computer, account, effective model/data class and bounded reasons other candidates were excluded. Launch reevaluates current settings and load; the preview does not reserve resources. The created session's notice and container badge use its actual fixed route.
+
+Only saved profiles with an existing available image and compatible fixed API account are eligible. Provider commands, network, model/data policies, project mappings, account limits and session/resource capacity are checked before ranking. An account stays on its saved computer. Different services may coexist there; the normal one-account limit or explicitly configured two-account limit per service remains in force. Remote API credentials must already be provisioned on their matching server. No account keys or homes are copied, no images downloaded, and no host fallback occurs if selection fails.
+
+Automatic placement uses full Git worktrees and ordinary PTY container launches. Selected-file capsules keep their explicit local profile. ACP remains local direct/worktree. Restart uses the already selected fixed route; it does not run placement again.
+
+Scoped agents can request the same route through `spawn_agent` with `isolation: "container"`, `containerRoute: "auto"` and optional `containerProfileIds`. They may also constrain `accountId` and `model`. A fixed `host`, `containerProfileId` or `worktreeRef` cannot be combined with automatic container placement. The result includes selected host, account and isolation IDs.

+# Project context and conventions
+
+Open **Settings → Context** to register a project folder and keep its instructions, preferences and design tokens. Context delivery is off by default. Enable it when you want compatible agent launches to receive the project's selected rules; a launch can also opt out independently.
+
+## Create and preview rules
+
+Register the source project folder, choose a category and add a rule with a stable key and a plain-text or JSON value. Rules can belong to your defaults, user, organization, project or a saved task. Current launch instructions have the most specific scope. At the same scope explicit rules take precedence over imported rules, which take precedence over eligible learned rules.
+
+Use the preview to see the actual selected text at a data-class ceiling. A private winning rule is omitted for an ineligible route; its less specific public counterpart does not silently return. Security and dependency categories are considered even when other categories are filtered. Complete rules fit within bounded context budgets; the preview reports permitted omissions.
+
+The launcher can select a saved task, categories and current instructions alongside a literal initial task. Its route preview reflects the selected account, model and host without starting an agent. Actual launch checks them again. Native CLI startup receives context once where the adapter supports it; ACP refreshes context for each actual task. A fresh restart obtains current rules. Disabling or deleting context cannot erase the classification of data already disclosed in an existing conversation.
+
+## Import selected project files
+
+Edit the registered project and enable selected sources. Imports read the current files when context is captured or previewed. There is no background project scan. The source list accepts:
+
+- Literal instructions from `AGENTS.md`, `CLAUDE.md` and `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
+- Development, contributing, testing and code-style sections under ATX headings in README files, including their Russian equivalents.
+- Always-applied Cursor `.mdc` rules; scoped or unsupported frontmatter is reported rather than applied globally.
+- Literal `.editorconfig` records and static JSON/YAML Prettier or ESLint mappings.
+- Custom properties in selected top-level CSS `:root`, class or `data-theme` blocks.
+
+Executable JavaScript/TypeScript configurations remain references and are never run. Imports are limited to 32 selected files, 64 KiB per file and 256 KiB total, within the registered project. Symlinks, hardlinks and nested separately registered projects cannot extend this boundary. The parser supports a small static subset; it does not evaluate the CSS cascade, media queries, Sass, executable configs or general Markdown.
+
+An imported row is read only and shows its permitted source path, line and content digest. **Create explicit override** creates an editable rule with the same key. Missing files stop contributing rules; unsafe or malformed sources produce an error, without serving an old preview. A replaced project folder must be registered again.
+
+Unknown source files have a D2 classification. Explicit path policies and source minimum classifications determine the effective class; a source minimum can only raise it. Provider-facing rule text does not contain local provenance paths or hashes.
+
+## Design tokens
+
+The editor offers colors, typography, spacing, radius and component foreground/background helpers. Component helpers save ordinary JSON rules; color references such as `var(--brand-cream)` remain literal. CSS root imports use keys such as `design.css.--brand-cream`. Selected additional themes have separate keys, so a dark-theme variable does not overwrite the root theme.
+
+These are agent instructions and literal conventions, not a rendering engine or proof that a model obeyed them. Review the actual changes before applying them.
+
+## Learn from explicit corrections
+
+Select a project and expand **Project corrections and learning**. **Configure learning** controls that project only. Both learning and automatic application start off. **Capture correction** records a user correction, a user-attested accepted change, or an unconfirmed agent suggestion. You may select a verified running session from this project; its source and disclosure history raise the evidence classification when necessary. Terminal output is never interpreted as user confirmation.
+
+A unique confirmed event adds evidence to its exact value. One, two and three or more confirmations yield heuristic scores of 0.45, 0.71 and 0.90. Each conflicting confirmation subtracts 0.30. Replaying an event or recording an unconfirmed suggestion does not increase the score. These numbers are a documented heuristic, not measured probabilities of correctness.
+
+Automatic application uses a configurable threshold (default 0.85; allowed 0.50–1.00). The advisory threshold defaults to 0.60. Manual acceptance admits a candidate while learning is enabled, regardless of score, and takes priority over automatic alternatives for the same key. The candidate remains inferred; explicit and imported rules still take precedence.
+
+Reject, disable or undo application removes the candidate from future context until you explicitly accept it again. Undoing an evidence record removes its vote while keeping its provenance and conservative classification. Disabling learning keeps records for inspection and excludes learned rules from new launches and new ACP tasks. It does not erase information already sent to a provider. Nothing is promoted to another project or a global rule automatically.
+
+The registry allows 512 candidates total, 128 per project, 2048 evidence records total and 32 per candidate, within the existing 8 MiB store bound. Failed saves preserve the draft. Deleting a registered project also removes its tasks, rules and feedback.
+
+## Check a reviewed snapshot against conventions
+
+Edit a registered project and enable **Explicit convention checks**. This starts off independently of context delivery and learning. In **Settings → Execution → Workspaces → Selected-file capsules**, review stopped output and expand **Project convention checks**. Choose the report clearance and run the check explicitly. An authenticated parent can use `validate_capsule_conventions` only for its own current capsule and delegation generation; it cannot supply source paths, patches, rules or a higher clearance.
+
+The validator reads immutable main-owned before/after file bytes, never renderer patches. It does not run a model, a formatter, ESLint, package commands or executable project configuration. Existing capsule source verification still checks repository identity. Results are advisory and never apply a fix. Report identifiers are ephemeral: at most eight latest capsule reports remain available, and a new check for a capsule replaces its old report. **Check currentness** rejects changed source/output, context imports, learning eligibility or path policies. Returning to the window or leaving the settings section clears the displayed snapshot; external edits require a fresh currentness check or rerun.
+
+Only structured JSON rules whose key starts with `validate.` are executable checks. The Context editor offers presets. Existing scope/source precedence, inferred-rule eligibility, classification filtering and context budgets apply before validation. Unsupported visible rules and uncovered files produce diagnostics; ordinary prose remains agent context. A private winning rule cannot revive a weaker public rule. Files above the selected clearance are omitted without names or contents.
+
+Supported values are deliberately narrow:
+
+| `kind` | Other fields | Coverage |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `forbidden-colors` | `colors: ["#000000"]` | Complete six- or eight-digit hexadecimal literals on changed CSS property/value lines for `color`, `background`, `background-color`, `border-color`, `outline-color`, `fill`, `stroke`. |
+| `forbidden-pair` | `foreground: "#000000", background: "#ffffff"` | A single `color` and `background`/`background-color` declaration in the same simple block, with at least one changed property/value line. Duplicate declarations are omitted. |
+| `formatter-config` | `file: ".prettierrc.json", required: {"semi": true}` | Selected basename `.prettierrc` or `.prettierrc.json/yaml/yml`, `.eslintrc.json/yaml/yml`; up to 16 required top-level scalar values. Newly changed mismatches have exact scalar/declaration lines. Removal of a previously correct property is a diagnostic without a fabricated after-line. |
+| `filename` | `extension: "tsx", style: "PascalCase"` | Extension `ts/tsx/js/jsx/css`; ASCII `kebab-case`, `camelCase` or `PascalCase`. Capsules select existing files, so a mismatching edited filename is an **existing-name advisory**, not a newly introduced violation. |
+| `dependencies` | `section: "dependencies", allow: ["react"], deny: ["example-package"]` | Added or value-changed package names in the selected `dependencies`, `devDependencies`, `peerDependencies` or `optionalDependencies` section of `package.json`. Either allow or deny is required; deny takes precedence. No version interpretation, package resolution or dependency execution. |
+
+CSS covers simple top-level tag, class, ID and `:root` selectors only. It does not evaluate nesting, at-rules, cascade, computed values, three-digit colors, shorthand, priorities, selector programs or strings as declarations. Comments and strings cannot create matches. JSON/YAML are strict static mappings, with duplicate keys, tags and aliases rejected. Unrelated bounded arrays such as package keywords/workspaces are allowed; configuration depth is at most four, each collection at most 64 entries and total nodes at most 2048. Existing unchanged violations do not become new warnings merely because a different line changed. No general user regex or glob runs.
+
+Coverage is bounded to 64 executable rules, 256 KiB per file, 2 MiB combined before/after text, 10,000 lines per file, a one-million-cell changed-line comparison per file/four-million cells total and 250,000 CSS declaration checks. There are at most 128 warnings and 64 diagnostics; reaching a bound is explicit partial coverage. Binary/non-UTF-8, deleted, unsupported and deletion-only files never receive an invented pass. The report names the immutable review and context digests and includes permitted exact file/line coordinates. Absence of warnings is not whole-project validation.
+
+## Request an advisory agent review
+
+For an immutable changed capsule review, expand **Review with agent**, load the available routes, select an exact local API account/model/container, and use **Preview route and context**. **Launch paid review** is a separate explicit action that consumes that account's quota. No model, credential lookup or engine probe occurs while loading choices or previewing. The route shows the account's fixed host; this initial diff-only review supports local bridge-network API containers. Ordinary full-workspace remote containers remain available separately.
+
+The capsule must belong to its original live local parent with delegation enabled. A capsule created without a parent does not silently acquire one. The parent, its generation, ordinary child/depth/concurrency budgets, account/model clearance and current path policies are checked again during launch. A preview expires after ten minutes and is single use. Changed source files, reviewed output, context or route configuration invalidate it. Draft route selection survives errors; refresh never changes the account/model/profile merely because the list was reordered.
+
+The review child mounts only main-created `Review.patch` and a fixed `Task.md`, read only, plus its normal private temporary API configuration. It receives the exact previewed, route-filtered optional context once through the ordinary launch path. Global or inherited per-session context opt-out still applies. Mandatory diff classification includes changed and deleted source bytes, context lines and path metadata; the parent disclosure floor remains conservative. Disabling optional context cannot downgrade the diff. The patch is bounded to 1 MiB.
+
+The result is an ordinary retained **Advisory review** session on the canvas; **Open review** shows its launch status and response. The output is untrusted advice, with no automatic application, source-file access or child delegation. The derived artifact has no source baseline and cannot use normal apply/recovery, convention or test-snapshot actions. Once its container is confirmed stopped, its immutable review files may be removed. After app restart the retained files may be cleaned, but saved identifiers cannot reconstruct launch authority: prepare a new review. Unknown container ownership remains retained for explicit generation cleanup.
+
+Authenticated agents can explicitly use `preview_capsule_review_agent` and then `launch_capsule_review_agent` for their own reviewed capsule. The preview tool returns route/identity metadata, not filtered preference text that might exceed the parent's clearance. Provider-internal subagents are not involved. No model quality, cost reduction or token savings is assumed or measured by this feature.
+
+### Explicit delegation at launch
+
+The ordinary agent launcher includes **Allow launching subagents**, initially off. Its choice survives a failed launch and a Settings round trip alongside the task, account, model, context and isolation draft. An enabled launch stays an interactive session with explicit delegation permission; the session card shows Delegation. Main checks both this permission and legacy orchestrator requests before preparation and at restart/restore boundaries. Existing account-per-service/per-host affinity, classifications, context floors, budgets and parent ownership remain in force.
+
+Delegation is separate from browser access. With browser access off, supported native launches receive only `canvastty_agents` MCP configuration and an authenticated orchestration capability. No browser capability, server entry or browser permission grant is added. The helper uses the exact connection identity issued for that launch; the bootstrap token expires and is single-use, reconnect keeps the same identity, and exit/restart/disposal revokes old authority. Browser-on configuration keeps its existing behavior. Shared Hermes/Kimi temporary configurations refuse a browser permission change while in use; close the existing sessions before changing that mode. Owned cleanup/recovery preserves unrelated user configuration.
+
+Supported parent routes are local direct and worktree PTY for Claude, Codex, Qwen, OpenCode, Hermes and Kimi, plus local direct/worktree ACP for Cursor, MiniMax and Kimi. The installed runtime and local helper must be available. ACP v1 uses stdio MCP in `session/new`/`session/load`; HTTP/SSE capability flags do not imply stdio refusal. A provider rejecting the request leaves a failed session and revokes its capability. This is transport/configuration support, not a claim about provider login, subscription or model entitlement. PTY with custom Hermes/Kimi account homes, unsupported native providers, remote parents and container parents reject delegation before credentials or engine preparation. Custom Kimi homes remain usable through configured ACP. Selected-file capsule/review delegation still requires an original live local **direct** parent; worktree support does not broaden capsule authority.
+
+The application retains its existing local orchestration gateway socket and heartbeat timer from startup. Off launches create no orchestration capability, MCP config or helper process; this feature adds no new resident worker or polling loop. There is no claim of zero startup sockets.

+# Routing, search and context selection
+
+The user's September 21 follow-up expands the experimental routing work to token savings through three optional operations: selecting an agent/model or next action, semantic code search, and selecting relevant context. Agent/model selection is implemented as opt-in routing (below); semantic search and context selection are not implemented yet. The original roadmap remains unchanged; these notes record the follow-up and researched integration boundaries.
+
+## Product contract
+
+- Exact names and literal patterns use local deterministic search. Semantic search can score a bounded set of candidate source excerpts and return original file paths, line numbers and text. It must never invent evidence or report an incomplete search as exhaustive.
+- Routing chooses only among candidates already permitted by data policy, account-to-host binding, capabilities and current resource limits. A decision model cannot waive those checks or generate an executable command.
+- Context selection keeps source material verbatim. Current user instructions, approvals, active constraints, failures and unresolved work are mandatory context. Selection cannot delete the original history or break tool-call/result pairs. Only context owned by CanvasTTY may be compacted; vendor CLI histories require a verified provider adapter.
+- A common decision interface can support deterministic rules, opt-in Jev and opt-in Laya. Feature-off means no helper, model download, request or polling. Laya runs in a separate lazily started process on a chosen host, outside Electron.
+- Router metadata contains only bounded categorical features and opaque eligible IDs. Semantic search and context selection have a different disclosure surface: any source/text sent to a cloud backend requires an explicitly configured, eligible data-handling path. No silent endpoint fallback may change that path.
+- Quality gates compare relevant-code recall, task completion, wrong routing, retained required context, input/output volume, measured cost where available, latency, CPU and memory. Savings are measured against a baseline; they are not guaranteed from a demo or model price.
+
+## Primary implementation references
+
+- [TypeSafe API](https://docs.typesafe.ai/api): typed choices, yes/no scores and ordinal scores over supplied state. It does not scan a repository or execute tools by itself.
+- [jegrep](https://github.com/can1357/jegrep): semantic repository navigation with compact evidence output. Its automatic backend fallback must not be copied across CanvasTTY privacy boundaries.
+- [jevgrep](https://github.com/nassim-arifette/jevgrep): CLI/MCP search with source excerpts and score caching; advertised transport verification varies by backend.
+- [jev-router](https://github.com/gargpratyush/jev-router): per-turn Claude/Codex model selection through CLI proxies. A reference for routing policy, not an automatic replacement for CanvasTTY account and host controls.
+- [fast-jev-compaction](https://github.com/tamaratran/fast-jev-compaction): verbatim history selection. Its demonstrated compression does not establish preservation of every fact needed by a later task.
+- [Laya](https://github.com/NandhaKishorM/laya): Apache-2.0 local decision model. The maintainers explicitly distinguish fine-tuned results from weak base-model zero-shot results and recommend calibration. It needs CanvasTTY-specific evaluation before automatic use.
+- [System One adapter](https://github.com/typesafe-ai/system-one-adapter-python): an official open adapter implementing a similar decision interface over other LLM APIs. This provides an interface alternative, not evidence of equal latency, cost or calibration.
+
+Source and documentation inspection is not a live integration test. No external project was installed and no project code, history or credentials were submitted to these models during research.
+
+## Source review findings
+
+The six reviewed Jev integrations publish MIT-licensed integration code; Laya is Apache-2.0. These licenses do not make Jev model weights open. The useful patterns are a local shortlist before cloud scoring (`jegrep`), explicit source-sharing configuration and exact excerpts (`jevgrep`), routing at a new-turn boundary with cache costs considered (`jev-router`), and selecting old tool pairs while preserving retained text (`fast-jev-compaction`).
+
+CanvasTTY must filter candidates before sending any request, then recheck the selected action before executing it. [JevRouter](https://github.com/BillionsBobby/JevRouter/blob/f944acb6530621bced023352e2358a63218bf4d9/src/router.ts) demonstrates typed model/tool/subagent decisions, but filters candidates after the provider call. That order is unsuitable for CanvasTTY's disclosure boundary.
+
+The [compactor's candidate construction](https://github.com/tamaratran/fast-jev-compaction/blob/e3f262a7f4d42bd8dd32ced30d26176f7cb545b0/src/state.ts) sends conversation text and tool inputs, omits actual outputs from scoring, and does not inherently protect old writes or failures. Its positional pinning is insufficient for this product's mandatory facts. A separate author's [small held-out experiment](https://github.com/jcressler/fast-jev-compaction-codex/blob/main/benchmarks/HELDOUT-RESULTS-2026-09-18.md) found no exact-pass improvement from Jev and stopped that integration. This is limited evidence, but reinforces the requirement to benchmark quality and total cost before enabling automatic selection.
+
+## Implemented agent routing (September 23)
+
+Routing is off by default. When enabled, candidates are the configured routes plus, by default, automatically assembled tuples: every configured account for an agent (or the ordinary CLI login when the agent has no accounts), on each computer where the CLI was detected (remote hosts use only the last cached discovery, never a new probe), each concrete model from the account's model list (up to three), and each selected reasoning effort the CLI supports. A broken configured account never falls back to the ambient login. Every candidate still passes launch policy, capacity, data class and runtime checks before any evaluator call; automatic routing enforces the ambient provider estimate instead of warning.
+
+Reasoning effort is a launch dimension with verified per-CLI flags only: Claude `--effort` (low, medium, high, xhigh, max), Codex `-c model_reasoning_effort="…"` (minimal, low, medium, high, xhigh) and Grok `--reasoning-effort` (low, medium, high, xhigh). Other agents reject an explicit effort; Cursor selects thinking through its model name. Effort reaches ordinary launches, subagents (`spawn_agent`), restart/restore and saved sessions, and is refused for ACP and containers.
+
+Each route carries relative cost and quality (operator estimates, otherwise derived from effort). Without a matching rule, a stated task difficulty orders routes deterministically: simple prefers the cheapest, hard the strongest, normal the medium effort. With Jev enabled and the separate metadata grant, Jev receives task category, difficulty, data class and, per candidate, agent, model, effort, cost, quality, subscription limit headroom (from the ambient LimitsService snapshot, when available) and local/remote. Paths, route and account identities, sources and context are not sent. Task text is sent only with an explicit grant up to D1 or D2; D3 text is never sent.
+
+Response validation follows the documented contract (`model`, `answers`, `usage`) but tolerates `jev-latest` or dotted versions, extra metadata fields, partial or rounded distributions (1% tolerance), a missing confidence and `prompt_tokens`/`completion_tokens` usage names. Duplicate keys, unknown choices, invalid distributions, oversized or deeply nested payloads and a different pinned version still fall back to rules. No live TypeSafe call has been made: there is no key in this environment.
