Two selects that never wrote anything, and a queue

The approval card in Auto mode and the missing /effort were one bug. Both selects hung their hx-patch on an empty sibling form reached by form="…", and htmx binds a trigger to the annotated element: change fires on the select and bubbles to its ancestors, which a sibling is not. The live rows read agent_mode=manual and params_json={} while the browser showed Auto and Effort: high. policy.py was never involved. The verb moves onto the control; the empty form stays as value scoping, which is the half of the CLAUDE.md note that was right. conftest gains control_named so a test asserts the element carrying the name carries the verb, rather than asserting the markup that was there throughout. The composer's highlight was a third instance of the same carelessness in CSS: .tok-mention is written for the transcript and scoped to nothing, so the mirror painted its token in accent-coloured monospace over the textarea's own text. Scoped under .msg; the mirror restates transparency and font rather than inheriting them, and bleeds by box-shadow. /effort is now offered before the first prompt and _new_chat reads it. /index re-walks the project directory on demand, file_write drops the listing it just invalidated, and the index ladder falls through to SFTP on a host that refuses exec instead of returning nothing. A second message during a reply is queued rather than starting a second concurrent generation: a real Message row with queued set, so it survives a restart and can be withdrawn. _drain hands one on at the end of a reply, _inject takes one in at a tool-round boundary so an agent can be steered mid-task. Stop leaves the queue undelivered. The terminal's Auto toggle becomes off/copy/send, and send posts straight to the chat without touching the composer. @ now offers notes, skills, this chat's attachments and a URL to fetch; a knowledge base attaches as a reference rather than a copy. copy_document carries provenance, which was the one attach path that dropped it. Also fixes an unrelated live bug: the round loop compared against the global MAX_ROUNDS of 3 while sizing itself from the agent budget of 40, so agent replies stopped after three rounds and reported forty.

 # Changelog
 What changed, per version, for somebody using or running LLeMbas — not a
 restatement of the commit log. If a change fixed something that *looked* like it
 worked, that is worth a line: those are the ones nobody would otherwise know to
 stop working around.
 Newest first. Versions are `__version__` in `src/lembas/__init__.py`, which is
 the only place a version is written.
 The first tagged release is **1.0.0**. Everything below it shipped as a running
 deployment rather than as a release, and is recorded here so the release notes
 for 1.0.0 have something to be assembled from.
 ---
 ## Unreleased
 ## 1.0.2
 - **The documentation moved to the [wiki](https://git.houmeres.sk/Houmeres/LLeMbas/wiki).**
  `CLAUDE.md`, `PLAN.md` and `docs/` are gone from the repository: they are
  documentation *about* this project rather than part of it, and a clone should
  carry software. Nothing was lost — the working notes, the roadmap and the eight
  topic notes are all there, with every internal link rewritten, and the README
  now opens onto them. Where a source comment said "see `CLAUDE.md`" it now says
  "see the working notes".
 - Entries below this one still name `PLAN.md` and `docs/notes/…`, and are left as
  they were written. A changelog records what happened at the time; rewriting old
  entries to match a later decision makes it a worse record, not a better one.
 ## 1.0.1
 - Fixed: the Updates page showed **"v1.0.0 (reports 1.0.0)"** — two spellings of
  one version, in a note whose whole purpose is to warn that a tag was cut
  before the version bump. `git describe` answers with the tag's name, and tags
  here carry a `v`. Found by cutting the first release, which is the only place
  it could have been.
 ## 1.0.0
 The first release. Every version before it shipped as a running deployment
 rather than as a release; this is what those add up to, and the point at which
 it is worth somebody else installing.
 **What it is.** A self-hosted web interface for OpenAI-compatible endpoints.
 Server-rendered, no build step, no CDN, one SQLite file. Point it at whatever
 you run — llama.cpp, LM Studio, vLLM, Ollama, OpenRouter, OpenAI — and it works
 the same.
 ### What arrived since 0.8.1
 - **Things that happen because time passed.** Say "every Monday at nine" and a
  model sets it up itself, against the same recurrence rule the manual form
  uses. A run can file a **report** you read later, send you a message, or work
  in a chat of its own.
 - **News that finds you.** A dot in the sidebar, a count in the tab title while
  you are looking elsewhere, and **web push** so a schedule firing at seven in
  the morning reaches a browser that is shut. Opt-in per device, and the one
  thing here that contacts an outside service — `services/push.py` says so
  plainly and says what it costs.
 - **Helpers.** A reply can hand a self-contained piece of work to another model
  that runs on its own and reports back, several at once. A helper cannot ask
  questions, cannot send helpers of its own, changes nothing unless asked, and
  on a machine runs only a fixed list of read-only commands.
 - **Drawing.** Point it at a ComfyUI and a model can make images, against
  workflow templates and defaults you set — size, steps, sampler, scheduler,
  checkpoint. It reviews its own result and can try again.
 - **Semantic search.** Pick an embedding model and library search fuses keyword
  and meaning, so *"how do I get paid"* finds a document that says *"invoicing"*.
  Choosing none is not a degraded mode: it is byte-for-byte the keyword search
  that was always there, with nothing written and no requests made.
 - **Quotas and sharing.** Monthly tokens, concurrent replies, agent wall clock,
  images a day, helpers a reply — resolved by maximum across a person's groups,
  with zero meaning *no limit*. Documents, notes, skills and reports can be
  handed to a group or a person, read-only, with a *Shared with me* filter
  everywhere. And a screen that answers **"what can this account actually do?"**
  by naming where each permission came from.
 - **Make it yours.** Name, tagline, logo, favicon and launcher icons; the
  Middle-earth wording is editable data; custom themes defined as a set of
  colours rather than a stylesheet.
 - **Install it and update it.** A Dockerfile, a Proxmox container script, and an
  `/admin/updates` page showing what is running, what is available and what
  changed between. The button that applies an update is opt-in and cannot do the
  work itself — it writes a file that a systemd unit picks up, because a web
  application that can restart its own service is one whose worst day is much
  worse.
 ### The part worth reading
 Five audit passes went into this release rather than one, and they found things
 that had shipped looking correct. These are the entries somebody stops working
 around a bug because of:
 - **Every model was told the time in a zone with no name** — on any account that
  had not chosen one, which is every account by default.
 - **A helper could write files and run programs on a remote machine,
  unattended, in a mode that promises to change nothing.** `find` was on the
  read-only command list, and `find -fprintf` writes a file.
 - **Two ways to get root out of the update helper**, one of which needed no
  compromise at all: root ran a script the unprivileged service account owns,
  and an update fetches that script as that account.
 - **Deleting a chat left every file it held on disk** — attachments, generated
  images, all of it, with nothing that would ever look at them again.
 - **Folder nesting was fully built, documented in the README, and reachable by
  nothing.** So was moving a chat into a folder.
 - **The terminal silently stopped accepting input after a reconnect**, while
  output kept arriving so the panel looked healthy.
 - **On the Messages screen, half the keyboard shortcuts did nothing**, because
  two scripts were loaded twice and each toggle ran twice.
 - **The prompt preview could not show two thirds of what it previews.**
 - **Hints and timestamps failed the contrast minimum in both themes.**
 ### Where the edges are
 Stated because they are the things worth knowing before you rely on it:
 - **Nothing executes on the machine LLeMbas runs on.** Agent chats run their
  commands over SSH on a host you choose, and the security of an agent chat is
  the security of that host. There is no sandbox here and that is deliberate —
  `PLAN.md` records the one that was designed and dropped, and why.
 - **One worker.** The generation registry, the terminal sessions and the
  schedule ticker are all in-process. Two workers means two tickers and every
  schedule firing twice.
 - **A restart abandons replies in flight**, keeping whatever each had.
 - **Schema changes are additive.** New tables and columns apply themselves at
  startup; renames and drops are manual. The upgrade path is tested from an
  0.8.1-shaped database with rows in it.
 - **Sharing grants reading only.**
 2283 tests on Python 3.11, 3.12 and 3.14.
 ## 0.9.13
 **The testing pass.** 2140 tests became 2283, and writing them found four bugs
 that no amount of reading had.
 - Fixed: **the terminal silently stopped accepting input after a reconnect.**
  Change the connection, or let the shell catch up after falling behind, and
  every keystroke was dropped from then on — while output kept arriving, so the
  panel looked perfectly healthy. It also announced "Disconnected. Close and
  reopen to reconnect." about a shell that had just reconnected successfully.
 - Fixed: **on the Messages screen, half the keyboard did nothing.** Two scripts
  were loaded twice there, so `Alt+B`, `Alt+E`, `Alt+T` and `Alt+I` toggled
  their panel twice — which is to say not at all — while `/help` opened two
  dialogs, `/image` posted the message twice, and picking an `@` mention
  attached the file twice.
 - Fixed: **pressing the microphone while the permission prompt was up opened a
  recording each time.** Only the last was stopped, so the browser's recording
  indicator stayed on until the tab was closed.
 - Fixed: **a skill shared with you took its name out of your own library.**
  Creating your own was refused with "a skill called that already exists. Edit
  it instead" — naming a skill you cannot edit, because sharing grants reading
  only. The model's `skill_create` hit the same dead end. Sharing a curated
  skill with a team is what sharing is *for*.
 - Hints and timestamps are readable now. `--ink-faint` failed the accessibility
  contrast minimum in **both** themes — 3.85:1 in Moria, 3.19:1 in Shire, where
  4.5:1 is the bar — so the smallest text on every screen was the hardest to
  read.
 - The suite runs on **Python 3.11 and 3.12** as well as 3.14. It had only ever
  run on 3.14, while the Docker image ships 3.12 and the packaging claimed 3.11
  — so the one interpreter most people would actually run was the one nothing
  had tested.
 - A `docs/notes/release-checklist.md` for the half of testing a machine cannot
  do: a real endpoint, a real machine, real hardware, a real pair of eyes.
 ## 0.9.12
 **The security pass.** Six findings, all fixed. None is reachable by simply
 visiting the site; every one of them is a boundary that was supposed to hold
 and did not.
 - Fixed: **a helper could write files and run programs on the remote machine,
  unattended, in a mode that promises to change nothing.** A subagent is pinned
  to a fixed list of read-only commands — and `find` was on it. `find -fprintf`
  writes a file, `find -exec` runs a program, `find -delete` removes one, and
  none of them needs a character the shell-metacharacter guard refuses. A page
  the model had just read could have asked for a helper and got an SSH key
  written into `authorized_keys`. Those flags are refused outright now, whatever
  list a command is on.
 - Fixed: **an SSH connection could be pointed at `0.0.0.0` and reach the machine
  LLeMbas runs on**, with the "may a connection point here" setting still
  reading *off*. Every other spelling was caught; that one is neither a real
  destination nor a refused one, and connecting to it goes to localhost.
 - Fixed, twice, in the update helper — the one place this deliberately crosses a
  privilege boundary: **root ran a script the unprivileged service account
  owns**, and **root sourced a file that account can replace**. Either turns a
  compromise of the web application into root on the host, which is exactly what
  the unprivileged split exists to prevent. The first also meant control of the
  branch was control of root, with no compromise needed at all.
  **If you installed the update helper before this, re-run the installer** —
  the old wiring stays until you do, and the update script now says so loudly
  when it notices.
 - Fixed: **browser notification endpoints skipped the guard that stops the
  server being aimed at your own network.** It was the only outbound request in
  the codebase not going through it.
 - Fixed: **a chat could be put in another account's folder**, and a folder hands
  its system prompt to the chats inside it — so that read a setting across an
  ownership boundary through a field that looks like a tag.
 - Fixed: a `"` typed into the share panel's search box silently stopped every
  checkbox in the panel from doing anything.
 - Fixed: **re-running the installer moved the update channel to `stable`** even
  on a host following `edge`. The channel lives in two places — the environment
  file the page reads and the systemd unit the button obeys — and a re-run kept
  the first while rewriting the second, so an install for some unrelated reason
  left the page naming one channel and the button deploying another. It now
  defaults to what the host already follows.
 ## 0.9.11
 - The Updates page no longer runs the **Check the remote** button flush against
  the version and commit above it, where the two read as one block.
 ## 0.9.10
 **The second audit pass: screens that were harder to use than they needed to
 be.** Checked by rendering them in a real browser and measuring, not by reading
 the CSS.
 - Fixed: **the Prompts admin page put its reference material first.** The
  Variables legend and the Preview run to a screen each and sat above the tabs,
  so the editor — the thing the page is for — started two screens down and every
  tab switch had to move the whole page to be any use. On a short tab it could
  not move far enough and left the panel stranded above a screenful of nothing.
  The editor comes first now, the reference after, and the tab bar stays put:
  measured, it moved 385→642px between tabs before and does not move at all now.
  The tab bar also sticks to the top, so a long panel does not scroll it away.
 - Fixed: **custom themes were three fixed slots.** A fresh instance opened on
  fifty-seven empty colour boxes under three identical headings, and a fourth
  theme could not be made at all. Now: one block per theme you have, plus one
  blank to add the next, with the colours behind a disclosure — so a theme is a
  name and a starting point until you ask for more. Up to twelve. The page is
  half the height it was.
 - Fixed: **deleting a chat left every file it held on disk.** The rows went —
  the message, the attachments, the generated images — and the files they named
  stayed, with nothing that would ever look at them again. Four of the five ways
  a chat can end had this: the delete button, a schedule's task chat, a helper's
  hidden chat, and deleting an account. There is one function that deletes a
  chat now, and it removes the files first.
 - Fixed, and it is what made the above invisible: **a file attached before the
  chat existed never learned which chat it belonged to.** Anything picked on the
  new-chat screen kept an empty `chat_id` for the rest of its life. Six things
  filter on that, so for those files the model was not told they were attached,
  the canvas would not open them, and the cleanup could not find them.
 - **Folders can be nested, which the README has always claimed.** The route has
  handled it since folders existed — cycle guard, depth limit — and the sidebar
  has always drawn a tree; there was simply no control that could ask for it.
  Moving a folder also respects the depth limit now, which only creating one did.
 - The Proxmox container installs the **update helper by default**. A container
  made thirty seconds ago to run one thing is not the shared host the plain
  installer has to be careful about, and an appliance you cannot update without
  a shell is one nobody updates. `INSTALL_UPDATE_HELPER=0` opts out. Docker
  deliberately has no equivalent: updating a container is pulling an image, and
  a helper inside one would need the Docker socket, which is root on the host.
 - The starting points on the new-chat screen are four new ones, aimed at
  somebody who has just stood an instance up and wants to know what is behind
  it. Only a fresh install gets them; an instance that has already seeded keeps
  whatever its administrator has made of the list.
 - `README.md` describes what this actually is again — schedules, reports,
  helpers, image generation, semantic search, quotas, sharing, branding and the
  updates page were all missing, and two things listed as *planned* had shipped.
  It gained sections on Docker, the Proxmox container and updating.
 ## 0.9.9
 **The first of five audit passes before 1.0.0** — everything that landed between
 0.8.1 and 0.9.8 read as a whole rather than one feature at a time. This one is
 the main logic, the harness, and every instruction a model is given.
 - Fixed: **every model was told the time in a zone with no name.** On any
  account that had not chosen a timezone — which is the default state of every
  account — the date line shipped as "Times the person gives you are in
  unless they say otherwise", on every request. The code claimed in two places
  that the line disappeared instead. It never had.
 - Fixed: **the prompt preview could not show most of what it previews.** Eleven
  fragments are gated on things that only exist once there is a real chat, and
  the preview has none — so the whole agent surface, both scheduling fragments
  and the helper warning were missing from it whatever you ticked. Editing
  `tool.agent` and pressing preview showed a system message without `tool.agent`
  in it, and nothing said so. Two new controls come with the fix: what kind of
  chat to preview as, and which agent mode.
 - Fixed: **a model in Plan mode was told to use a tool it did not have.**
  `plan_update` is withdrawn in that mode in favour of `plan_submit`, but its
  guidance appeared whenever a plan existed — directly under the line saying
  anything not in your tool list does not exist.
 - Fixed: **reading one knowledge document could fill the whole context window.**
  Every other reader caps what it returns and says so; this one returned the
  document whole, and its description said "in full", so it did exactly what it
  claimed. A long PDF is now cut at 40,000 characters with the model told.
 - Fixed: **the guidance about helpers on a machine was wrong in both
  directions.** It denied that a helper can write files, which is a documented
  option of the tool beside it, and it named seven of the twenty-three commands
  a helper may run — so a model avoided commands it was allowed to use. Both are
  now checked against the real list and the real schema by tests, because prose
  and a constant drift the moment one is edited alone.
 - The tool description for delegating no longer claims a helper gets "the same
  tools". It gets deliberately fewer, and sizing a task against the wrong set is
  how a whole phase gets planned around something that will refuse it.
 - The Updates page notices when the update helper on a host was installed for a
  **different channel** than the page follows. It is declared in two places —
  `lembas.env` and the systemd unit — and only the installer writes both, so
  editing one by hand would have left the button deploying something other than
  what the page named, with nothing anywhere saying so.
 - Fixed: release notes from a **signed** tag rendered the signature block.
  `_notes_for` stripped the PGP header only, and which header appears depends on
  `gpg.format` — this repository signs with SSH.
 - A `CHANGELOG.md`, kept from now on rather than assembled at release time.
 ## 0.9.8
 **Updates follow a channel, not a commit.** `stable` tracks the newest `vX.Y.Z`
 tag; `edge` tracks the branch tip. A branch tip is not a release — following one
 means deploying whatever was pushed five minutes ago — so stable is the default
 for anybody who is not the person writing it.
 - The Updates page shows a **version** rather than a commit sha: `1.0.0` at a
  tag, `1.0.0-7-gd4f56d` seven commits past one, and a bare sha only before the
  first release exists.
 - Release notes come out of the **annotated tag itself**, so no forge API is
  involved anywhere. That matters: the Gitea API this was checked against
  returns a 500 from a server-side panic on exactly the releases endpoint.
 - A tag with a suffix (`v1.1.0-rc1`) is deliberately not a release — git's
  version sort ranks it *above* `v1.1.0`, so accepting one would step a stable
  host onto a candidate.
 - Fixed: `deploy/update.sh` stopped silently after `== fetching ==` on any host
  with no release tags — which was every host. Fetched, not reset, not
  restarted, and no error printed.
 - Fixed: `install.sh` now refuses an `ssh://` repository URL up front instead of
  letting the clone fail as a service user with no key.
 ## 0.9.7
 **Packaging, and updating without a shell.**
 - `/admin/updates`: what is running, what is available, and what changed between.
  A button applies it — answered by an **opt-in** systemd helper, because the
  service runs unprivileged and a web application that can restart its own
  service is one whose worst day is much worse. Without the helper the page says
  so and prints the command.
 - `Dockerfile` and `docker-compose.yml`. No secret key, no data and no `.git`
  baked in; loopback only; a TLS proxy expected in front, because a service
  worker and a microphone both require HTTPS or localhost.
 - `deploy/lxc-install.sh` creates an unprivileged Proxmox container and runs the
  existing installer inside it.
 - `/healthz`, which opens the database rather than only proving the socket is
  listening.
 ## 0.9.6
 **Permissions, quotas and sharing.**
 - **"What can this account actually do?"** answered on screen, naming *where*
  each permission came from — admin, the baseline, or a group.
 - Users and groups are list-plus-detail, and membership is edited from **one**
  side. It was on both, and a save from either overwrote what the other showed.
 - Reading and writing split for notes, memory and skills.
 - **Quotas on a group** — monthly tokens, concurrent replies, agent wall clock,
  images a day, helpers a reply. Resolved by maximum across a person's groups,
  with zero meaning *no limit* and winning outright.
 - Fixed: **deleting a group or an account left every share naming it behind.**
  `forget_principal` had existed since shares did and was called by nobody.
 - Fixed: `library.share` defaulted to off, so sharing shipped documented as done
  and unreachable — the panel only renders for somebody who holds it.
 - The share panel is its own action with a search box. It used to be checkboxes
  inside the resource's save form, listing every account on the instance, and a
  tick only took effect if you also saved the resource.
 - Reports are shareable, and every listing has a **Shared with me** filter.
 ## 0.9.5
 **Extraction settings, embeddings, and hybrid search.**
 - `/admin/extraction`: upload size, image edge, JPEG quality, PDF pages,
  extracted characters, orphan age, extra text extensions.
 - An **embedding model** can be chosen from models flagged for it. Library search
  then fuses keyword and semantic ranking, so *"how do I get paid"* finds a
  document that says *"invoicing"*.
 - **Choosing none is not a degraded mode**: no rows written, no requests made,
  and byte-for-byte the keyword search that was always there.
 - Vectors carry their model and width, and a mismatch is skipped rather than
  scored — comparing two embedding spaces produces a confident wrong answer.
 - Indexing happens in the background as records are written, with a rebuild
  button for everything that already existed.
 ## 0.9.4
 **An instance can be somebody else's.**
 - Name, tagline, logo, favicon and launcher icons derived from the logo.
 - The Middle-earth wording is editable data. Leaving a box alone does not freeze
  it, so a later release can still improve the default.
 - **Custom themes** as a set of colours rather than a stylesheet, inheriting
  whichever built-in they start from.
 - Global CSS overrides, served as `/branding.css`.
 ## 0.9.3
 **Subagents.** A reply can hand a self-contained piece of work to a helper that
 runs on its own and reports back — several at once, so research fans out instead
 of queueing.
 - A helper cannot ask questions, cannot send helpers of its own, writes nothing
  unless the call asked and the chat's mode allowed it, and on a machine runs
  only a fixed list of read-only commands — in **every** mode, including Auto.
 - Fixed, and it was live in scheduled runs too: an unattended chat that hit an
  approval built a card nobody could see and sat on it for fifteen minutes.
 ## 0.9.2
 **Image generation defaults an administrator can actually set** — steps, cfg,
 size, sampler, scheduler, denoise, negative prompt, checkpoint, batch. There were
 none: one hard-coded set from the SD1.5 era, and prose in a box as the only way
 to change it.
 - The samplers and schedulers ComfyUI had been reporting all along are now the
  pickers; nothing had ever read them.
 - The tool's own schema restates the instance's defaults, instead of telling the
  model "Default 512" beside an instance that draws at 1024.
 ## 0.9.1
 **Everything that arrives is announced, not only chat replies.** A scheduled run
 that filed a report used to light a dot in a corner and say nothing.
 - A count in the tab title while you are looking elsewhere.
 - **Web push**, so a schedule firing at seven in the morning reaches a browser
  that is shut. Opt-in per device. It is the one thing here that contacts an
  outside service, and `services/push.py` says so plainly.
 ## 0.9.0
 **A model can schedule things.** There was no tool for it — asked to "remind me
 every Monday", a model wrote a note and reported that it had scheduled
 something, and every screen agreed with it.
 - `schedule_create`, `schedule_list`, `schedule_update`, `schedule_cancel`, over
  the same rule normaliser the manual form uses.
 - The reply says the resulting timing back in words, which is the only moment
  anybody can check that Monday was understood as Monday.
 ## 0.8.3
 **An SSH connection may not point at this machine unless an administrator says
 so.** A profile aimed at `127.0.0.1` walked straight past "nothing runs on the
 LLeMbas host" — through a real login, onto the machine holding the database and
 the encryption key. Three positions: off, one named port, or anywhere.
 ## 0.8.2
 - Fixed: **opening the canvas before a chat existed swapped the whole site into
  the panel.** `hx-get=""` is not "fetch nothing" — htmx looks for the attribute,
  not the value, so the empty one was a real request for the current document.
 - Fixed: the Canvas and Terminal buttons appeared where they could not work.
 - The bottom edge of the shell is no longer drawn, so the sidebar footer and the
  composer stop meeting a line at two different heights.
 - Admin pages scroll in one container; `/admin/prompts` no longer drops you at
  the bottom of a shorter panel.

 # LLeMbas — plan and status
 Where the project is, what is deliberately not built yet, and the decisions
 that would be expensive to revisit. Kept current as work lands; the detail of
 *how* things work lives in [`CLAUDE.md`](CLAUDE.md).
 **Status:** usable daily. Streaming chat, attachments, reasoning, tool calling
 with web search, custom HTTP tools and MCP servers, agent chats that work on a
 machine over SSH, a knowledge library, notes, memory and skills, speech in and
 out, users and groups, model administration, installable as an app. 1009 tests,
 `ruff` clean.

 ## The shape of it
 A self-hosted web UI for OpenAI-compatible endpoints, written in Python, themed
 after Middle-earth.
 | | |
 |---|---|
 | Stack | FastAPI + Jinja + htmx + a little Alpine |
 | Build step | none — no Node, no npm, no CDN at runtime |
 | Database | SQLite, schema synchronised additively at startup |
 | Deployment | systemd unit + nginx vhost, one worker |
 These are load-bearing. Dropping the no-build rule or moving off SQLite would
 be a different project, not a refactor.
 ---
 ## Done
 ### Chat
 - [x] Streaming replies over server-sent events
 - [x] **Markdown renders progressively** — re-rendered whole every 100ms rather
      than appending tokens, because a list or code fence is only correct once
      its context exists
 - [x] Syntax highlighting (Pygments), sanitised with nh3
 - [x] **Generation runs in the background** — a task, not the request. Navigate
      away, open another chat, close the tab: the reply keeps being written and
      reattaching replays the whole state
 - [x] **Stop** — the send button becomes Stop while writing; what arrived is kept
 - [x] **Rewind** — edit one of your own turns and the conversation runs on from
      there. Truncates rather than branching
 - [x] Copy, regenerate, automatic chat titles
 - [x] Chats created on first message, so an abandoned composer leaves nothing
 - [x] **Unread indicator** — a green dot and a toast when a reply lands while
      you were elsewhere
 - [x] Folders, arbitrarily nested; deleting one keeps the chats inside it
 - [x] Per-reply metrics — tokens, context used as a percentage, tokens/second,
      live while streaming and kept afterwards. Estimated with a `~` when the
      endpoint reports no usage
 - [x] Compaction — a button, and automatically at a configurable percentage of
      the model's context. Summarised turns are kept and collapsed, not deleted
 - [x] Temporary chats — never listed, swept after a day, with a Keep button
 - [x] An admin-only request inspector beside the thread
 ### Tools
 - [x] **Tool calling** — one reply is a bounded loop of requests, not one
      request. Text produced before a call is kept
 - [x] **Web search** as the first tool: DuckDuckGo (no setup), SearXNG or
      Firecrawl, chosen in the admin area
 - [x] Only offered to models flagged `tools`, because an endpoint without
      support rejects the whole request rather than ignoring the array
 - [x] Sources stay in the transcript; results are **not** replayed as context on
      the next turn, for the same reasons reasoning is not
 - [x] A round's calls run together, and the reply says which tool is running —
      a remote tool taking seconds with nothing streaming looks like a hang
 - [x] **A reply can stop and ask you something** — one or more questions on one
      card, with answers to pick from and a box to write your own, answered
      together. The same mechanism carries command approvals
 - [x] **Custom HTTP tools** — an administrator describes one call: a JSON Schema,
      a URL template, headers, an encrypted secret and how to read the answer.
      Arguments may fill a hole but never move the target: the scheme and host
      are literal, values are escaped for where they land, and the origin is
      pinned afterwards
 - [x] **MCP servers** over streamable HTTP — a hand-written client, so that
      `check_url` runs on every hop rather than being bypassed by somebody
      else's transport. Tools are discovered and cached by a button, namespaced
      per server, and a server's own descriptions are bounded before they reach
      a model as instructions
 - [x] Both gated like the built-ins — a model capability, a permission — and
      restrictable to groups, with guidance of their own on `/admin/prompts`
 - [x] Local MCP over stdio is deliberately absent: spawning a subprocess would
      run on this machine, which nothing here does
 ### Agent chats
 - [x] A chat is a **Chat** or an **Agent**, chosen when it starts and fixed
      thereafter — a transcript whose earlier turns ran somewhere else is not
      one conversation. Knowledge, memories and skills are shared across both
 - [x] **Nothing runs on the LLeMbas host.** Commands go to a machine reached
      over SSH, so containment is somebody's considered choice of host — a
      container built for the job — rather than a sandbox built here. A local
      one was designed in detail and dropped; see CLAUDE.md for why
 - [x] **SSH connections are user-owned**, like notes. An administrator decides
      only whether the feature exists at all
 - [x] Trust on first use, made explicit: adding a host does not connect to it,
      **Check** shows its fingerprint with nothing sent, and only accepting
      pins it. A host that later answers with a different key is refused
 - [x] Four modes as a table over what each tool does to the world —
      **Manual** asks about everything, **Edit** writes freely but asks before
      commands, **Auto** asks about nothing, **Plan** reads freely and changes
      nothing. Switchable at any time; read once per reply
 - [x] Enforced in the generation loop, not in the prompt: a rule a model is
      merely told is one a poisoned file can argue with
 - [x] A deny list beats **Auto**; an allow list cannot be matched by a command
      containing anything that joins two commands together
 - [x] `shell_run`, `file_read`, `file_write`, `file_list` — files over SFTP,
      never through a shell, because the SSH exec protocol has no argv form
 - [x] **Plan mode ends with a plan** you can carry out with one button, which
      switches to Edit and sends it back quoted rather than as an instruction
 - [x] Per-reply budgets on steps, wall clock and output, with time spent
      waiting for you subtracted
 - [x] **A terminal panel** beside the chat, holding a real shell on that chat's
      own connection. The modes govern the model; what a person types is theirs,
      since they hold the credential and could open the same shell with an ssh
      client. The model cannot see the panel — sending it output is a button
 - [x] The shell outlives the panel and the page: closing it leaves a build
      running, and coming back reattaches with the scrollback. An idle timeout
      is what eventually ends one, and so does deleting the chat, or disabling,
      moving or deleting the connection
 - [x] **The panel is resizable**, dragged from its edge or nudged with the
      arrow keys, and the width follows you to another browser
 - [x] **It knows where one command ends and the next begins** — bash and zsh
      are given the markers VS Code and WezTerm use, so *Copy* and *Send* mean
      one command and its output rather than the last forty rows of the screen.
      An **Auto** toggle collects each one into the next message. Any other
      shell starts exactly as it did before, the buttons fall back to the
      screen and say so, and Auto is disabled rather than degraded
 - [x] **The project directory is listed for the model** — one read-only
      command, `git ls-files` where that works so `.gitignore` is honoured for
      free, budgeted so a big directory becomes a count rather than a thousand
      filenames on every request
 - [x] **A directory is chosen by browsing it** over SFTP, not by typing a path
      into an unlabelled box
 - [x] The approval mode is chosen **before** the first message, beside the
      message box rather than in the header
 ### The library
 - [x] **Knowledge bases** — documents, images and saved web pages, grouped into
      named collections and ingested through the same pipeline as chat
      attachments, searched with SQLite FTS5
 - [x] A chat can be pointed at particular bases, so "answer from the contracts
      folder" is a different question from "answer from everything I have"
 - [x] **Notes** — longer things the model writes down and searches later;
      editable by hand, because they are yours
 - [x] **Memory** — short facts, injected on every turn to a budget rather than
      searched, and managed in your settings
 - [x] **Skills** — saved procedures. Only the name and description are injected;
      the body is fetched when the model decides it applies
 - [x] A model may write and revise its own notes, memories and skills. Every
      skill revision is kept, attributed and revertible — the safety story is a
      record and a way back, not a gate
 - [x] **Sharing** — a knowledge base, a note or a skill can be shared with a
      group or with named people, read-only. One visibility rule, and
      administrators do not bypass it. Documents are shared through their base
 - [x] **The harness** — an operational prompt assembled from what a model
      actually has, so the tools get used rather than ignored
 - [x] Attach menu: file, image, a web page fetched on the spot, or a document
      from the library
 - [x] **`@` to name one** — the library everywhere, and files in the project
      directory in an agent chat. The reference stays in the sentence and the
      contents come along, with the path and the machine, so the model knows
      exactly which file it was handed
 ### Audio
 - [x] **Dictation** — record in the composer, transcribed by any OpenAI-shaped
      `/v1/audio/transcriptions` endpoint. The recording never touches disk
 - [x] **Read aloud** — any `/v1/audio/speech` endpoint, with the voice list
      discovered from the server where it offers one
 - [x] Instance defaults in Admin, per-reader overrides in Settings — voice,
      speed, dictation language, and whether replies play automatically
 ### Models and reasoning
 - [x] OpenAI-compatible connections with encrypted keys and model discovery
 - [x] **Reasoning display** — `reasoning_content` and inline `<think>` tags,
      collapsed by default, labelled with how long it took, never replayed as
      context
 - [x] Model admin as a list plus a page per model; scales to hundreds
 - [x] Ordering, pinning (a sidebar shortcut, *not* a reordering), instance
      default, per-user default, images, capability flags
 - [x] Custom model picker showing avatars, descriptions and capabilities
 ### Attachments
 - [x] Drag, paste or pick images, PDFs and text files
 - [x] Images downscaled and sent to vision models as content parts
 - [x] PDF and text extracted at upload and placed in the prompt
 - [x] Type decided by inspecting bytes, random names on disk, non-images served
      as downloads with `nosniff`
 - [x] No OCR: a scanned PDF says so rather than silently contributing nothing
 ### People
 - [x] Accounts, argon2, revocable server-side sessions, self-service password
      change
 - [x] Users and groups with permissions that **union** rather than override
 - [x] Model access restricted to chosen groups
 - [x] Registration toggle, instance settings stored in the database
 ### Prompts
 - [x] Three layers — instance, model, chat — with the most specific winning
      **outright** rather than being concatenated
 - [x] Every injected fragment editable at `/admin/prompts`: the tool guidance,
      the memory and skill sections, the seam above the authored prompt, and the
      request that names a chat
 - [x] `{{variables}}` with a legend, values shown as they currently resolve, and
      pass-through for anything that is not one
 - [x] A preview of the whole assembled system message, including unsaved edits
 - [x] Defaults in code and overrides in the database, so improving a default
      still reaches an instance that never edited it
 ### Suggestions
 - [x] Admin-managed cards on the new-chat screen; three seeded once at startup
 ### Interface
 - [x] **`/` for commands** — compact, usage, mode, model, title, the panels,
      the theme. Anything not in the table is sent as an ordinary message, and
      `//` starts one with a literal slash
 - [x] **Keyboard shortcuts** for the same jobs, listed beside the commands in
      one table so `/help` cannot go stale
 - [x] Mentions and recognised commands are marked as you type, and again in the
      transcript, so you can see what a message will do before sending it
 - [x] **Reasoning effort** per chat, with a per-model default. Sent as both
      `reasoning_effort` and `chat_template_kwargs`, and only once chosen:
      OpenAI and vLLM read the first, llama.cpp silently drops it and reads
      only the second
 - [x] **Installable** — manifest, generated PWA icons, a service worker for the
      shell and a themed offline page. The worker deliberately never touches
      `/api/`: a reply is an event stream and caching one breaks it
 - [x] Two themes (`moria`, `shire`) from one set of design tokens
 - [x] Every control sized from `--control-h`, so rows line up by construction
 - [x] Toasts and dialogs of our own; no `window.confirm` anywhere
 - [x] Original SVG artwork generated from a single source
 ### Operations
 - [x] Additive schema sync — new tables and columns applied at startup
 - [x] `deploy/` — systemd unit and nginx templates, install and update scripts
 ---
 ## Not built yet
 In the order they are likely to be worth doing.
 ### Image generation
 Left until last from the start, as it needs heavy customisation. ComfyUI is
 already running on this machine and is the obvious first target.
 ### Smaller things
 - **OCR** for scanned PDFs
 - **Conversation branching** — `Message.parent_id` exists unused; needs a UI for
  choosing between versions, which is why rewind truncates for now
 - **Chat export** (Markdown, JSON)
 - **Semantic search** in the library — the retrieval service is one call, so an
  embedding backend can go behind it without touching the tools or the UI
 - **Archived chats** — the column exists, nothing surfaces it
 - **Per-user quotas**
 ---
 ## Known limits
 Worth knowing before they surprise someone.
 **One worker.** The generation registry and the stop mechanism are in-process.
 Running several workers needs that state in the database or a broker, because
 the request following a reply would not necessarily land in the process writing
 it.
 **A restart abandons replies in flight.** Shutdown cancels them and keeps what
 each had. There is no resume.
 **Schema changes are additive only.** New tables and columns apply themselves;
 renames, drops and retypes are manual against the SQLite file. `MANUAL_STEPS`
 in `db/migrations.py` is where such a step gets recorded.
 **Attachments live on disk, unreferenced files are swept at startup.** No
 deduplication, no size quota.
 **Unread is polled every 10 seconds.** A push channel would be more responsive
 but means an always-on connection per tab for the sake of a green dot.
 **Installing needs HTTPS or localhost.** Service workers are unavailable over
 plain HTTP, so a LAN install without TLS is a normal browser tab. The
 microphone is unavailable for the same reason.
 **Tool calling needs a model that supports it.** The `tools` flag is an
 administrator's assertion, not something endpoints reliably advertise. Set it on
 a model that cannot, and its replies fail rather than degrade.
 **Library search is keyword, not semantic.** FTS5 ranks well and needs no
 dependency or embedding endpoint, but "how do I get paid" will not find a
 document that says "invoicing".
 **A model can write its own skills, and they take effect at once.** Marked as
 model-authored and fully revertible, but a model that has just read a hostile
 page could save a skill that outlives the conversation. The mitigation is that
 it is visible and undoable, not that it was prevented.
 ---
 ## Deliberate decisions
 Recorded because each looks like an oversight until you know the reason.
 - **No JavaScript build step.** Browser libraries are hash-pinned and committed.
  A self-hosted tool should work offline and not report page views to a CDN.
 - **Permissions union, never deny.** With denies, "why can this user not do X"
  cannot be answered without simulating every group.
 - **System prompts replace, never stack.** Two layers that disagree give the
  model contradictory instructions and nobody can tell which is losing.
 - **Rewind truncates, does not branch.** Branching needs a UI for choosing
  between versions; "go back and try again from here" is what was asked for.
 - **Pinning is a shortcut, not an ordering.** A picker whose order silently
  differs from the admin screen is confusing.
 - **Images only reach models marked `vision`.** Not graceful degradation: most
  endpoints reject the entire request rather than ignoring an image part. Tools
  are gated the same way, for the same reason.
 - **Sharing grants reading, never writing.** Two people editing one note with no
  history and no merge is worse than the inconvenience of copying it.
 - **Memory is never shareable.** A record about a person is not content to hand
  round.
 - **Knowledge attached to a message is copied, not referenced.** History must not
  change under a conversation because a document was edited later.
 - **The harness is prepended to the authored prompt, not a fourth layer.** It
  describes the machinery; the authored layers describe the behaviour. Only one
  authored layer still wins.
 - **Tool results are not replayed.** Like reasoning: the answer already contains
  what the model made of them, and replaying stale results into every later
  request wastes the window and sends small models into search loops.
 - **The service worker caches the shell, never a page with a user in it.** A
  cached conversation would be a snapshot that silently went stale, belonging to
  whoever was signed in last.
 - **Markdown rendered server-side.** One code path produces the streamed and
  the stored view, so they cannot disagree.
 - **This repository is public.** Deployment hostnames, ports and paths stay out
  of it; `deploy/` is templates, and the real values live in private notes.

  names, descriptions and images. Scales to hundreds of models
 - **Things that happen because time passed** — say "every Monday at nine" and a
  model can set it up itself, against the same recurrence rule the manual form
  uses. A run can file a **report** you read later, send you a message, or work
  on in a chat of its own. The reply says the timing back in words, which is the
  one moment anybody can check that Monday was understood as Monday
 - **News that finds you** — a dot in the sidebar, a count in the tab title while
  you are looking elsewhere, and **web push** so a schedule firing at seven in
  the morning reaches a browser that is shut. Opt-in per device
 - **Helpers** — a reply can hand a self-contained piece of work to another model
  that runs on its own and reports back, several at once, so research fans out
  instead of queueing. A helper cannot ask questions, cannot send helpers of its
  own, and on a machine runs only a fixed list of read-only commands
 - **Drawing** — point it at a ComfyUI and a model can make images, against
  workflow templates and defaults you set: size, steps, sampler, scheduler,
  checkpoint. It reviews its own result and can try again

 ```
 ## Running it somewhere
 Three ways, all in this repository.
 ### Docker
 ```bash
 export LEMBAS_SECRET_KEY="$(lembas secret-key)"   # required; there is no default
 docker compose up -d
 ```
 One stage, no build step, non-root. The image bakes **no secret key, no data and
 no `.git`** — a key inside an image is one every copy shares, and rotating it
 makes stored API keys unreadable. Data lives in a named volume on `/data`.
 `docker-compose.yml` publishes on `127.0.0.1` and expects a TLS proxy in front:
 the service worker and the microphone both require HTTPS or localhost, so plain
 http on a LAN address is a constraint rather than a preference. One replica, and
 that is deliberate — the generation registry, the terminal sessions and the
 schedule ticker are all in-process, so two would mean every schedule firing
 twice.
 **Updating a container is pulling a new image**, and `/admin/updates` says so
 rather than offering a button:
 ```bash
 docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
 ```
 There is deliberately no in-container update helper. The one the other install
 paths use restarts a systemd service; the equivalent here would be a process
 inside the container reaching the Docker socket to replace the container it is
 running in — which is root on the host, granted to anybody who can administer
 the web interface. The image is the unit of deployment, and that is the whole
 point of it.
 ### A machine of its own
 `deploy/` holds a systemd unit, an nginx vhost, and install/update scripts. Every
 template is parameterised and substituted at install time, so nothing
 host-specific is committed here. See [deploy/README.md](deploy/README.md).
 `deploy/lxc-install.sh` creates an unprivileged Proxmox container and runs that
 same installer inside it — a wrapper around what already works rather than a
 second install path:
 ```bash
 CTID=140 SITE_HOST=chat.example ./deploy/lxc-install.sh
 ```
 The container gets the **update helper by default**, unlike a bare
 `install.sh`. The installer defaults it off because it cannot know what it is
 installing onto; a container this script made thirty seconds ago to run one
 thing, on a hypervisor you own, is not that host — and an appliance you cannot
 update without a shell is one nobody updates. `INSTALL_UPDATE_HELPER=0` opts
 out.
 ### Updating
 **Admin → Updates** shows the version running, what is available on the channel
 this host follows, and the commits between. `stable` is the newest `vX.Y.Z` tag;
 `edge` is the branch tip, which is whatever was pushed most recently.
 The button that applies an update is **opt-in**, and that is the design: the
 service runs unprivileged and cannot restart itself, so the request is a file
 that a systemd `.path` unit picks up and runs as root. It carries no ref and no
 channel — pressing it is always "deploy the channel this host was configured
 with", never "deploy something else". Install it with
 `INSTALL_UPDATE_HELPER=1`; without it the page says so and prints the command to
 run by hand.
 Release notes come out of the annotated tag itself, so no forge API is involved
 anywhere.
 Root runs a **copy** of `deploy/update.sh` that the installer places outside the
 checkout and root owns. It must not run the one in the checkout: that file
 belongs to the unprivileged service account, so anything able to write as that
 account could rewrite it and become root — and so could whoever controls the
 branch, since a pull happens as that account and root would run whatever it
 fetched. The cost is that changing `update.sh` needs the installer re-run, and

 **The deployment fetches over HTTPS, on purpose.** The service user has no SSH
 key and should not have one: a credential that can push to the repository,
 sitting on a box, to do a read-only job. If you push over SSH your checkout's
 `origin` is an `ssh://` URL, which is the one thing that cannot work here — so
 the installer refuses it and names the fix rather than letting the clone fail
 with `Permission denied (publickey)` from an account you were not thinking about.
 ## Channels
 | | follows | for |
 |---|---|---|
 | `stable` (default) | the newest `vX.Y.Z` tag | anybody running this |
 | `edge` | the tip of `LEMBAS_BRANCH` | whoever is building it |
 **A branch tip is not a release.** Following `main` means deploying whatever was
 pushed five minutes ago, possibly mid-feature — right for development and wrong
 for a machine somebody depends on. Stable is the default for that reason.
 A tag with a suffix (`v1.1.0-rc1`) is deliberately **not** a release: git's
 version sort puts it *above* `v1.1.0`, so accepting one would step a stable host
 onto a release candidate on the strength of a hyphen. A prerelease is something
 you check out by name.
 Release notes travel inside **annotated** tags, so `git tag -a v1.1.0 -m "…"` is
 what puts them on the update page. Tags here are **signed** (`tag.gpgSign`), and
 the notes render the same either way — `updates._notes_for` cuts the
 `-----BEGIN SSH SIGNATURE-----` block off `%(contents)`, which would otherwise be
 forty lines of base64 on the page. No forge API is involved anywhere — which
 matters more than it sounds: a token on the deployment host to answer a
 read-only question about version numbers is a bad trade, it would tie this to
 one forge, and the Gitea API this was checked against returns a 500 from a
 server-side panic on exactly that endpoint.
 ## Updating from the web interface
 `/admin/updates` says what is running (`git describe`, so `1.0.0` at a tag and
 `1.0.0-7-gd4f56d` seven commits past one), what the channel offers, the release
 notes, and the commits between. **Checking** reaches the remote; opening the page
 does not.
 The button is opt-in, and the reason is a boundary rather than caution:
 ```bash
 INSTALL_UPDATE_HELPER=1 SITE_HOST=chat.example ./deploy/install.sh
 ```
 That installs `lembas-update.path` and `lembas-update.service`, and puts a
 **root-owned copy** of `update.sh` at `/usr/local/lib/lembas/update.sh`. The web
 interface writes `$PREFIX/data/update-requested`; the path unit notices and the
 service runs that copy **as root**, on the configured channel.
 **Why a copy.** The unit used to point inside the checkout, and `install.sh`
 clones the checkout *as the service user* — so root was executing a file the
 unprivileged account could rewrite, and one that every update replaces with
 whatever the branch contained. Either turns a compromise of the web application
 into root, and the second needs no compromise at all. The cost is that changing
 `update.sh` needs the installer re-run; the script tells you when its copy has
 fallen behind, and says so loudly if it finds itself running from inside the
 checkout.
 **If you installed the helper before 1.0.0, re-run the installer.** The old
 wiring stays until you do, and the update button cannot fix it — the button runs
 the old unit.
 **What that grants.** Anybody who can administer this web interface can then
 deploy whatever is on the configured branch and restart the service. That is the
 point of it, and it is why it is not the default.
 **What it deliberately does not grant.** The request file carries nothing that
 reaches a command line — no ref, no branch, no channel, no arguments, and its
 *contents* are never read at all. Both are baked into the unit at install time,
 so the button is always "deploy the channel this host was configured with" and
 never "deploy something else". Re-running the installer without the flag removes
 both units, the marker and the root-owned copy, and the page goes back to
 printing the manual command.
 A re-run **keeps the channel this host already follows** rather than resetting it
 to `stable`: the channel is declared in `lembas.env` and in the unit, a re-run
 keeps the first while rewriting the second, and an installer that silently moved
 one half was causing exactly the mismatch the Updates page detects.
 Without the helper the page says so and shows `sudo …/deploy/update.sh`, which is
 the same honest degradation the SSH and search extras have.
 ## Deploying a change
@@ -145,45 +59,6 @@ reinstalls dependencies and restarts, printing the commits it pulled. The hard
 reset is deliberate: nothing is ever edited in place there, so there is no local
 work to preserve and no conflicts to resolve.
 ## In a container
 A `Dockerfile` and a `docker-compose.yml` are in the repository root.
 ```bash
 echo "LEMBAS_SECRET_KEY=$(python -c 'import secrets;print(secrets.token_urlsafe(48))')" > .env
 docker compose up -d
 ```
 It publishes on `127.0.0.1:8080` and expects **a TLS reverse proxy in front**.
 That is a constraint, not a preference: a service worker and a microphone both
 require HTTPS or localhost, so over plain http on a LAN address the app cannot be
 installed and cannot dictate — and the session cookie is deliberately not marked
 `secure`, so an attacker on that network could steal a session.
 Three things about the image:
 - **No secret key is baked in**, and compose refuses to start without one. A key
  in an image is a key every copy of that image shares, and rotating it signs
  everybody out *and* makes stored upstream API keys unreadable.
 - **`.git` is excluded**, so `/admin/updates` inside a container says it was not
  installed from a checkout and offers nothing. That is correct: a container is
  updated by pulling a new image.
 - **One replica.** The generation registry, the stop mechanism, the terminal
  sessions and the schedule ticker are all in-process — two would mean two
  tickers and every schedule firing twice.
 ## On Proxmox
 ```bash

 Run on the Proxmox host. It creates an **unprivileged** Debian container,
 installs the dependencies, and runs `deploy/install.sh` inside it — the same
 installer, so a fix there reaches this without anybody remembering. Unprivileged
 is not a default to change: nothing LLeMbas does needs privilege, because agent
 chats run their commands over SSH on some *other* machine.

    the instance has already ruled out -- turning that on would do nothing,
    since `resolve_tools` applies this after the gates.
    **It works before the chat exists**, and that is not a nicety. The whole
    point of narrowing is to decide what a conversation may reach, and the first
    turn is the one where it matters most: the harness puts a tool's guidance in
    front of the model the moment the tool is offered, so by the time a chat
    existed to switch anything off, the model had already been told how to keep
    notes and been given the tools to do it. Switching it off afterwards does
    not un-send that turn.
    It used to say there was no row to write to. There is not -- so the
    prospective menu writes nothing: its switches are plain checkboxes submitted
    with the first message, and `start_chat` turns them into `scope_json` on the
    row it is about to create. `scope_allow` stays empty because nothing can
    have been allowed yet.
    The stand-in `Chat` is `agent/draft.py:as_chat`'s trick again: `resolve_tools`
    reads the kind, the model and the scope off a chat and never queries or
    writes it, so a row that is constructed and never added satisfies it
    unchanged. `scope_json` is set explicitly because it is a *column* default,

  else, and the page it is on has nothing to do with how many accounts exist.
 - **A share was only stored if the resource was saved.** Ticking a box and

 - Sharing a *report* has no save form to ride along with at all.
 So: search, and each grant is its own POST. The fragment re-renders itself after
 every change, which is what keeps "who can see this" a thing you read rather
 than a thing you reconstruct from checkboxes.
 **Only the owner may reach any of it.** Somebody a thing was shared with cannot
 share it on -- that is what keeps "who can see this?" answerable by asking one

 """Whether an SSH connection is allowed to point back at this machine.
 The whole design of agent chats rests on one sentence: nothing runs on the host
 LLeMbas is installed on. That is why there is no local sandbox, why local MCP
 over stdio is absent, and why "the security of an agent chat is the security of
 the host behind its profile" is a statement anybody can check.
 An SSH profile pointed at `127.0.0.1` walks straight past it. The commands go
 over SSH, through a real login, and every gate in `policy.py` still applies --
 and they land on the machine holding the database, the Fernet key and every
 other user's encrypted credentials. Nothing else in the codebase can tell that
 apart from a container on the network, because from the SSH layer's point of
 view it is not different.
 So it is a decision an administrator makes deliberately, in one of three
 positions:
 - **off** (the default, including on an instance upgrading into this) -- no
  connection may point at loopback, and one that already does is refused rather
  than quietly kept working.
 - **port** -- allowed on exactly one port. This is the position that has a real
  use: a container that publishes its SSH port on the host's loopback interface
  is genuinely somewhere else, and `127.0.0.1:2222` is how you reach it. Port 22
  is refused even here, because that is the host's own sshd.
 - **on** -- allowed anywhere. For somebody who has read the paragraph above and
  means it.
 ## Literal or resolved, and never resolved on the request path
 Both are checked, at two different moments, and the split is not tidiness.
 The literal forms -- `127.0.0.1`, `::1`, `localhost`, anything in
 `127.0.0.0/8` -- are decided from the string with no I/O at all. That is the
 check `refusal` makes, and it is why `refusal` can be called from a page render,
 from `resolve_tools` and from the composer's profile listing.
 A *name* that resolves to loopback needs `getaddrinfo`, which is a blocking
 network call, and putting one of those behind a check that runs several times
 per request is how a page render comes to wait out a DNS timeout for a host
 nobody is even talking to. The first version of this file did exactly that and
 the test suite went from two minutes to not finishing. So resolution happens
 **only where a network call is already expected and already awaited** -- saving
 a connection, and pressing Check -- and the answer is written to
 `SshProfile.resolves_here`, which the request path reads for free.
 The consequence, stated rather than discovered: a name whose DNS changes to
 point here after it was saved is not noticed until it is saved or checked again.
 That is a real gap and it is the right trade. The alternative is a DNS lookup in
 front of every agent page load, and a guard that makes the application feel
 broken is a guard somebody turns off.
 A refusal is never silent. Every caller that has somewhere to put a sentence
 puts this one there, because "this connection cannot be used" with no reason is
 indistinguishable from a bug.

 """Commands that outlive the reply that started them.
 An ordinary `shell_run` is one blocking `conn.run` over a per-call connection
 (`ssh.py`): when it hits its timeout the command is killed, so a ten-minute
 `apt install` is impossible. A background job is the same command launched
 *detached* on the far side -- `setsid`, redirected to a remote logfile and an
 exit-file -- so it survives the connection closing. LLeMbas reconnects (a fresh
 connection, as always) to read the log and the exit code later.
 This is the opposite of `terminal.py`, which survives by *holding* a connection
 open. Here we hold nothing: the whole point of `ssh.py`/`base.py` is that no live
 connection is kept, and a job that needed one would be a job that broke that.
 **The command never touches a quoted shell context.** `sh -c '<cmd>'` shatters
 the instant the command contains a `'` -- `git commit -m 'fix'`, `awk '{…}'`,
 `sed 's/…/…/'` are the common case, not an edge one, and would also be an
 injection hole. So the command is base64-encoded here in Python and decoded on
 the far side into a script file; it is bytes, never shell syntax. Only
 server-generated hex ids and a fixed root ever reach a path.
 Three things make the wrappers correct, and each was got wrong in an earlier
 sketch:
 * **The child records its own pid via `$$`**, as its first act, under `setsid`
  where it is the session/group leader -- so `job_stop` can `kill -<pid>` the
  whole process group. `echo $!` from the launcher captures the wrong pid.
 * **The exit-file is the primary signal.** An empty pid-file means "still
  starting", not "dead"; reading liveness first would race the launch and report
  a job lost the instant it began.
 * **The command's exit status comes from the exit-file, never from the wrapper's
  own status** -- which is ~0 from the trailing `rm`. Reading the wrapper's
  status would mark every job a success.

 """Applying a unified diff, and rendering one.
 `difflib` produces a unified diff and cannot apply one, so `render` uses it and
 `apply` is written here. No new dependency: hard rule 1 is about the browser,
 but a patch applier is fifty lines and pulling a package in for it would be
 worse than the fifty lines.
 Four behaviours carry the whole module, and each of them exists because of how
 models actually write patches rather than how the format is specified.
 **Fuzzy offset, exact content.** A hunk's `@@ -41,7 +41,8 @@` is a hint and
 nothing more. Models get line numbers wrong constantly -- they count from a
 truncated read, or from the file as it was three edits ago -- and get the
 context lines right. So the hinted position is tried first and then the file is
 scanned outward for an exact match of the context block. One match wins; more
 than one refuses, because guessing which of two identical blocks was meant is
 the one failure that silently corrupts a file.
 **Line endings are normalised in and restored out.** A CRLF file otherwise
 fails on every single hunk, on context that looks identical in the error
 message, which is unfixable from the model's side.
 **A blank context line may have lost its leading space.** Trailing whitespace
 is stripped by half the things a model's output passes through, so `""` is read
 as a blank context line rather than as a malformed one.
 **Nothing is written unless every hunk applies.** The new text is built whole in
 memory and handed back; a half-applied file is worse than a refused one, and the
 model cannot tell the difference without reading it again.

 """What this installation is called, and what it looks like.
 An instance can be somebody else's. That means four separate things, and they
 are separate because they fail differently:
 - an **identity** — a name, a tagline, a logo, a favicon, the icons a launcher
  shows;
 - **flavour text** — the Middle-earth lines, which live in the artwork, the
  empty states, the loading lines and the error pages and nowhere else (see the
  flavour rule in the working notes), and which somebody rebranding needs to be able to
  replace without editing templates;
 - **themes**, which are token sets rather than stylesheets, because the
  invariant that no component hard-codes a colour is what makes a third one
  compose at all;
 - **arbitrary CSS**, for the things the first three do not reach.
 ## Defaults in code, overrides in the database
 The prompt-fragment rule, applied again and for the same reason: text equal to
 its default is never stored, so a later release improving a default still
 reaches an instance whose administrator once pressed Save. `stored_only` is what
 enforces it, and every save goes through it.
 ## Why a snapshot, and why a Jinja global
 `web/templating.py:render()` has no database session, and the login page, the
 error pages, the offline page and the SSE path do not go through it at all. A
 context value would therefore have to be threaded through every one of those,
 and the ones that bypass `render()` could not be reached at all.
 So this is a **process-level cache** behind a lazy proxy registered as a Jinja
 global. One query per process, and after every save; every render path gets it
 including the ones that never see a `Request`. `forget()` is called by the admin
 page and by nothing else.
 The cost of being a cache is stated rather than discovered: with several
 workers, a save in one is not seen by the others until each next reads. That is
 already true of this application for other reasons -- see the "one worker" note
 in the roadmap -- and this does not make it worse.

 """What is open in the canvas panel, and where its contents come from.
 Six sources behind one shape. A tab key is `"<source>:<ref>"` and every source
 answers the same two questions -- load this, and save that -- through one table.
 A table rather than six branches for the reason `tool_labels.py` and
 `sharing.RESOURCE_TYPES` are tables: six independently written permission checks
 is how one of them ends up written slightly differently, and the way *that*
 failure shows up is somebody editing somebody else's note.
 The panel is a person's own hands. A save on an `agent:` tab therefore does not
 go through `agent/policy.py`, exactly as the terminal panel and the directory
 browser do not: whoever owns the credential could write the file with `scp`.
 This is the first of those exceptions that *writes*, which is worth saying out
 loud -- Manual mode's "everything is shown to you before it happens" is a promise
 about the model, not about the interface.

 """Talking to ComfyUI.
 Four calls and a discovery one, all plain httpx. `fetch.fetch` cannot be reused
 for the same reasons `custom_tools` gives -- it is GET-only, bodyless, and
 refuses every content type that is not HTML or text, which is both the JSON here
 and the PNG at the end of it.
 **The base URL is exempt from the SSRF guard, and that is deliberate rather than
 forgotten.** `fetch.check_url` exists to stop a *model or a reader* pointing the
 application at something on the private network; this address was typed by an
 administrator into the admin page, exactly like `Connection.base_url` and the two
 audio endpoints, none of which are checked either. Saying so here because the
 default value is `127.0.0.1:8188`, which is precisely the shape the guard exists
 to refuse and therefore looks like a hole rather than a decision.
 Progress is **polled, not streamed**. ComfyUI offers a WebSocket for it, and
 holding one open for the length of a generation is the live-connection state the
 whole `agent/ssh.py` design forbids; polling `/history` is self-healing across a
 restart of either side, and the thing being waited for takes tens of seconds, so
 a poll costs nothing anybody can measure.

 """Turning a stored template and a model's arguments into a ComfyUI workflow.
 A template is an API-format workflow with `{{placeholders}}` where the values
 go. Which node holds the prompt is therefore the administrator's statement
 rather than something guessed from node types -- sniffing for the first
 `CLIPTextEncode` works on the shipped template and on nothing else, and gets
 positive and negative the wrong way round the first time somebody reorders them.
 **Substitution walks the parsed JSON, not the text of it.** A value that is
 *exactly* `"{{steps}}"` is replaced by the number 20, not by the string "20";
 ComfyUI validates types and refuses the second. A placeholder inside a longer
 string still substitutes as text, which is what makes
 `"{{prompt}}, masterpiece"` work. Doing it textually would also mean a prompt
 containing a quotation mark produced a document that no longer parses, on the
 one input guaranteed to contain arbitrary text.

 model may set, what the admin page documents and what a template may reference

 """Splitting a record into pieces small enough to embed, and packing vectors.
 One implementation, used by documents, notes, skills and reports. Three would
 drift, and drift here is invisible: a splitter that behaves differently for
 notes than for documents produces a search that works and ranks wrongly.
 ## How it splits
 On **paragraph boundaries first**, falling back to lines and then to a hard cut,
 because a chunk that ends mid-sentence is one whose embedding is about half a
 thought. The overlap carries the tail of the previous chunk into the next, so a
 sentence that straddles a boundary is whole in one of them.
 Characters rather than tokens throughout. The count has to be made without
 asking the endpoint -- `services/tokens.py` already establishes four characters
 to a token as this codebase's estimate, and being 20% out about a chunk size is

 """Keeping the semantic index current, and rebuilding it when it is not.
 ## The shape, and why it is a background task
 Embedding is an HTTP request. Every writer in the library -- `documents.create`,
 `notes.edit`, `skills.save`, `reports.create` -- is synchronous and is called
 from a route or a tool runner that has just committed a row, and none of them
 should wait on a model server to answer before saying "saved".
 So indexing is **fired and forgotten**: `schedule(kind, id)` starts a task and
 returns immediately. A save that cannot be indexed is a save; the row is written
 either way and the search falls back to keywords for that record until the next
 rebuild. That is the whole degradation story, and it is the same one that covers
 having no embedding model at all.
 ## Nothing is written when no model is chosen
 `embedding_model_id` empty means the FTS path exactly as it has always been --
 no chunk rows, no requests, no cost. That is what makes this safe to add to an
 instance that never asked for it, and it is asserted rather than assumed.
 ## Staleness is a hash, not a timestamp
 Every chunk carries `source_hash` (of the text it was built from), `model_id`
 and `dims`. Re-indexing an unchanged record is free; a record whose text moved
 is rebuilt; a record embedded by a *different* model is rebuilt on the next pass
 and, until then, ignored by the scorer rather than trusted. Vectors from two
 spaces score against each other perfectly happily and mean nothing, which is a
 search that works and is wrong -- the worst failure this feature can have.
 ## The rebuild is restartable and reports itself
 A half-finished index has to be usable rather than empty, so the rebuild walks
 records one at a time and commits each. `progress()` is what the admin page
 polls; it is in-process, because a rebuild does not survive a restart and
 pretending otherwise would mean a progress bar that never moves.

 """Finding things: keywords, meaning, and the two fused.
 `fts.search_ids` was already the one seam every store searches through. This
 sits beside it and keeps that true — the four stores still call one function and
 still get ids back, and what changed is what is behind it.
 ## Reciprocal rank fusion, and why not a weight
 Two rankings have to become one, and their scores are not comparable: bm25 is a
 negative number whose scale depends on the corpus, cosine is 0..1. Normalising
 them onto a common scale means picking a constant, and that constant is a knob
 nobody can tune without a labelled test set they do not have.
 RRF uses the **ranks** and not the scores: `1 / (K + rank)`, summed. It has one
 constant, `K`, it is famously insensitive to it, and it degrades to exactly one
 of the two lists when the other is empty — which is what makes "no embedding
 model configured" mean the keyword search, unchanged, with no branch anywhere
 that says so.
 ## The query is embedded by the caller, not here
 `search` is synchronous, because every store's `search()` is and every one of
 them is called from both a route and a tool runner. Embedding is an HTTP request.
 So a caller that can await gets the query vector first and passes it in; one that
 cannot passes nothing and gets keywords. `embed_query` is the async half, and
 being able to answer `None` for every "no" is what keeps that from being a branch
 at each call site.
 ## Visibility is still somebody else's job
 Both halves return ids, and both are scored across *everything* — the filter is
 applied to the row query afterwards, in each store, through
 `services/sharing.py`. That order is deliberate and is the same one the
 full-text path has always used: filtering afterwards is what makes it impossible
 for a hit on somebody else's record to leak, even as a count.

 Signal-shaped rather than chat-shaped. There is exactly one of these per
 account, it is never titled, never filed and never deleted, and it is meant to
 run for years — which is the whole difficulty, because a conversation that never
 ends cannot all be sent to a model.
 **What is stored and what is used are different things, and only the second is
 bounded.** Every turn is kept, for ever, and scrolling up shows all of them
 exactly as they were written. What reaches the model is the most recent
 `LIVE_CHUNK` turns and nothing before them.
 **Nothing is folded into text and nothing is deleted**, and that is a
 deliberate reading of "compressed and history only". The visible conversation
 would be identical either way, so the only thing destroying the older turns
 would buy is disk — against which it is irreversible, it loses every attachment
 and tool call in the folded range, and it contradicts the rule this codebase
 already holds for compaction: *hiding turns is not deleting them*. Bounding the
 request achieves the whole of what the feature needs. If the rows ever do need
 folding, it is one function against this same boundary and the pages above it do
 not change.
 The consequence is worth stating plainly rather than discovering: **a Messages
 conversation is infinite on screen and finite in the request.** Past the live
 chunk the model genuinely does not see what was said, and it is told so.

 """Web Push: a notification that arrives with nothing of ours running.
 Everything else here is polled. `/api/chats/unread` runs in an open page, which
 is enough for "a reply landed while you were on another chat" and is nothing at
 all for the case this exists for -- a schedule firing at 07:00 on a laptop whose
 browser is shut. There is no way to close that gap from inside a page, because
 there is no page.
 ## The trade, stated plainly
 A push goes to the **browser vendor's** push service: Google's for Chrome,
 Mozilla's for Firefox, Apple's for Safari. The endpoint is chosen by the
 browser and there is no version of this feature that avoids it. That sits
 against "a self-hosted tool must not report page views to a third party", and
 the answer is not that the tension is imaginary:
 - The payload is encrypted end to end (RFC 8291) with a key derived from a
  secret only the browser and this server hold, so the push service carries
  bytes it cannot read.
 - What it *does* learn is that this server sent something to that subscription,
  and when. On a personal instance that is a timing channel over your own
  activity, and it is real.
 - So it is **opt-in per device**, off until somebody presses the button, and
  the rest of the notification system works without it.
 Nothing else in LLeMbas contacts an outside service on its own.
 ## Hand-rolled, and why
 `pywebpush` would do this in three lines and bring `http-ece` and `py-vapid`
 with it. The encryption below is one ECDH, two HKDFs and one AES-GCM seal, all
 from `cryptography`, which is already a dependency because API keys are
 Fernet-encrypted. That is the same call the MCP client makes: a hand-written
 client, so what actually goes on the wire is in this repository.
 ## The two specifications
 **RFC 8291** is the payload: `aes128gcm`, one record, the salt and the server's
 ephemeral public key carried in the body's own header block.
 **RFC 8292** is the authorisation: a JWT signed with a P-256 key whose public
 half identifies this server. The keypair is generated once and kept in the
 settings table with the private half Fernet-encrypted. It must be **stable** --
 the public key is baked into every subscription a browser has made, so
 regenerating it silently invalidates all of them.
 ## Failure is a subscription being dropped, not an error
 A push service answers 404 or 410 for a subscription that no longer exists --
 the browser was uninstalled, the site's data cleared, the permission revoked.
 That is the normal end of a subscription's life and not a fault, so those two
 delete the row. Everything else is logged and left, because a push service
 having a bad hour is not a reason to lose somebody's registration.

 """When a schedule next comes due.
 Pure and total. Nothing here opens a session, reads the wall clock or raises:
 every function takes what it needs and answers, so the whole of this module can
 be tested exhaustively before anything calls it. That is deliberate, because
 everything downstream fails *quietly* -- a schedule that never fires looks
 exactly like a working one on the list page, and a schedule that fires an hour
 out looks like nothing at all until somebody notices the report is late.
 ## The shape
 Plain cron cannot say "ten minutes from now, five times", so the rule is a dict
 with two independent generators and a bound:
    {
      "start": "2026-08-05T14:30:00Z",     # first candidate instant, UTC
      "every": {"minutes": 10},            # a stride
      "at":    {"weekdays": [0],           # 0 = Monday
                "days":     [1, 15],       # day of the month
                "months":   [1, 4, 7, 10],
                "times":    ["15:00"]},    # wall-clock, in the owner's zone
      "count": 5,                          # total firings, 0 = unbounded
      "until": "2026-12-31T00:00:00Z"      # last instant, "" = unbounded
    }
 `every` and `at` compose, and the four combinations are the whole vocabulary:
    every  at   meaning
    ----- ----  ------------------------------------------------------------
      -    -    fire once, at `start`
      x    -    a timer: start, start + every, start + 2*every, ...
      -    x    a calendar: every matching wall-clock moment after `start`
      x    x    a calendar with a stride: matching moments, every Nth kept
 ## Timezone, and why the two halves differ
 `at.times` are **wall-clock** in the owner's zone: 15:00 stays 15:00 across a
 DST change, because that is what "every Monday at 3PM" means to the person who
 said it. `every` durations are **elapsed real time**: ten minutes is ten
 minutes, and a six-hourly timer must not skip or double on a 23- or 25-hour day.
 Those are different meanings, not an inconsistency, and conflating them is how
 one of the two comes out wrong twice a year.
 A wall-clock time that does not exist (the hour skipped on a spring-forward day)
 fires at the first instant that does, rather than being skipped -- a daily report
 vanishing once a year is precisely the silent failure this file exists to avoid.
 One that occurs twice on a fall-back day fires on the first, once.
 ## Not expressible
 Said plainly, because the gap is the point: "the last Friday of the month", "the
 third Monday", "weekdays except holidays", "the Nth business day", sub-minute
 intervals, sunrise-relative times, and any conditional firing ("only if the
 build is red"). The first two are what people will actually ask for; the rule is
 JSON, so an `nth` key inside `at` adds them later with no migration.
