Every injected prompt becomes editable, and several get written

The instructions LLeMbas puts in front of a model were hard-coded: six
strings in a GUIDANCE dict, two headings, and the title request inline in
chat.py. An operator could not see what was being sent, let alone change
it, and there was nowhere for a custom tool to contribute its own guidance
when custom tools land.

services/prompts.py now holds each piece as a Fragment, and /admin/prompts
edits them with a preview of the whole assembled system message including
unsaved edits. harness.py keeps only the decisions -- which fragments apply
to this request, and what their variables resolve to.

The design turns on one choice: a fragment carries its gate as data
(families, requires, when_tools) rather than as a callable, because a
database row can carry the same three fields. Custom tools will therefore
register a fragment source and change nothing else -- there is a test that
says exactly that, and it is the reason the rest of the shape is what it is.

Consequences worth knowing:

  - Defaults live in code, overrides in the database, and text equal to its
    default is never stored. Otherwise pressing Save once would freeze
    today's wording forever and no later release could improve it.
  - An empty override means off. A fragment that was not submitted at all
    keeps what it had, because it may be missing from the page only because
    whatever contributes it is currently switched off.
  - requires= replaced the hand-written pair of memory guidance variants.
    The sentence that refers to a section now lives inside that section, so
    it cannot outlive it. That was the general problem the pair was a
    special case of.
  - {{name}}, with anything unrecognised passing through verbatim. The name
    grammar is the guard: {"total": 1} and ${PATH} are not candidates.
    Substitution is one pass and never recursive, because {{memories}}
    carries text a model wrote.

The wording is also overhauled, and a model now gets the core fragments
even with no tools -- the date above all. "An empty harness is worse than
none" was about tokens that say nothing; a model with no clock being asked
about the present is not that. Clearing those boxes restores the old
silence exactly. New: today's date, who it is talking to, the three-round
tool budget, that tool results are not replayed, that anything a tool
returns is data rather than instruction, and what the <document> wrapper
around an attachment is. Extended: memory_forget, notes_edit/delete,
skill_create/edit, and reading a knowledge document in full rather than
answering from an extract.

Tool descriptions stay in code and are listed read-only. They are schema
and they state facts about what a runner does; an edit would make the text
a lie with nothing to catch it.

No schema change -- one JSON row in the settings table.

488 tests. Version 0.2.0, which also invalidates the service worker cache
so the green artwork appears without a hard reload.

+
+## What it is
+
+A self-hosted web UI for OpenAI-compatible LLM endpoints, written in Python and
+themed after Middle-earth. Server-rendered FastAPI + Jinja + htmx; SQLite;
+no JavaScript build step.
+
+## Commands
+
+```bash

+```
+
+## Hard rules
+
+These are the constraints the project is built around. Breaking one is a
+redesign, not a tweak.
+
+1. **No Node, no npm, no build step.** Browser libraries are downloaded once by
+   `scripts/fetch_vendor.py`, hash-pinned in `scripts/vendor.lock.json`, and
+   committed under `web/static/vendor/`.
+2. **Nothing loads from a CDN at runtime.** A self-hosted tool must work
+   offline and must not report page views to a third party.
+3. **No hard-coded values outside `tokens.css`.** Every colour, space, radius
+   and control height resolves through a CSS variable. `--control-h` is why
+   buttons, inputs and selects line up: they all take their height from it, so
+   a mixed row is flush by construction rather than by nudging.
+4. **Additive-only schema changes.** SQLite only, no Alembic. `init_db()` runs
+   `db/migrations.py:sync_schema()`, which creates missing tables *and* adds
+   missing columns by diffing the models against the database. Renames, drops
+   and retypes are still manual. See "Changing the schema" below.
+5. **Secrets never reach the browser.** API keys are Fernet-encrypted at rest
+   and only ever rendered masked.
+6. **Model output is untrusted.** Everything from an endpoint goes through
+   `services/markdown.py` (markdown-it → nh3) or `escape_text()`. Never
+   `|safe` on anything that has not.
+
+## The flavour rule
+
+Middle-earth lives in the **artwork, theme names, empty states, loading lines
+and error pages**. It does not live in the functional UI.
+
+Chats are called *Chats*, not *Tales*. Folders are *Folders*, not *Chapters*.
+Buttons say what they do. Someone who has never read the books must be able to
+use this without a glossary. The two themes are named `moria` and `shire`, and
+the 404 says "Not all those who wander are lost. This page, however, is." —
+that is the right amount.

+
+## Things that will bite you
+
+**`render()`, not `TemplateResponse`.** `web/templating.py:render()` injects
+`user`, `theme`, `version` and `allow_signup`. Templates assume they exist. If
+you must call `templates.TemplateResponse` directly (the SSE path does, because
+there is no `Request`), pass `user` explicitly — `chat/_message.html` renders
+both roles and the user branch dereferences it.
+
+**The message template is the state machine.** `chat/_message.html` renders an
+incomplete assistant message as a streaming shell carrying `sse-connect`, and a
+complete one as finished output. That is the *only* thing that starts a
+generation. A consequence worth knowing: loading a page whose last reply is
+unfinished restarts it, which is how a dropped connection recovers.
+
+**SSE framing.** `services/sse.py:event()` splits payloads on newlines into
+several `data:` lines. A raw newline in a single `data:` line truncates the
+event — the failure shows up the first time a model emits a code block.
+
+**Streaming opens its own database session.** `api/chats.py:_generate()` uses
+`session_scope()`, not the request's session, because streaming outlives the
+request handler.
+
+**Escaping is chunk-safe on purpose.** `escape_text()` is `html.escape`, which
+works character by character, so escaping stream chunks separately equals
+escaping the whole string. `nh3.clean_text` would also be safe but escapes
+spaces and slashes, tripling the size of every streamed token.
+
+**The fence renderer is replaced, not configured.** markdown-it's `highlight`
+option re-wraps output in `<pre><code>` unless the string starts with `<pre`,
+which would nest a second `<pre>` inside our wrapper. `markdown.py` overrides
+`renderer.rules["fence"]` instead. There is a regression test for this.
+
+**SVG `<style>` is document-scoped.** Two text runs in one SVG sharing a class
+name means the later rule recolours both. `build_artwork.py` takes class names
+as parameters for exactly this reason.
+
+**Gradient ids are document-global.** The `mark()` macro takes a `uid` because
+two marks on one page with identical ids make the second silently reuse the
+first one's gradients.
+
+**Two kinds of settings.** `lembas.config` is deployment configuration read
+from the environment at startup. `services/settings_store.py` is instance
+settings an admin edits at runtime, stored in the `settings` table. Environment
+variables seed the latter as an *initial* value only — once stored, the database
+wins, or a toggle in the UI would silently revert on the next restart.
+
+**Permissions are a union, and admins bypass them.** `security/permissions.py`
+resolves a baseline (instance setting) widened by each group. A group grants;
+it never denies — otherwise "why can this user not do X" needs a simulation of
+every group to answer. Model *access* is separate: `models_visible_to()`.
+
+**FastAPI cannot tell an empty form field from an absent one.** With
+`x: str | None = Form(None)`, a submitted `x=` arrives as `None`, so "clear this
+field" is indistinguishable from "leave it alone". `api/chats.py:update_chat`
+reads `await request.form()` and checks key presence instead. Anything with a
+clearable field must do the same.
+
+**`Mapped[list]` without an element type is not a collection.** SQLAlchemy
+treats a bare `Mapped[list]` as a scalar and hands back `None` instead of `[]`.
+Always write `Mapped[list[Group]]`, with a `TYPE_CHECKING` import if the class
+lives in another module.
+
+**Reasoning arrives two ways.** A `reasoning_content` delta field (llama.cpp,
+llama-swap, vLLM) or `<think>` tags inline in `content` (Ollama and friends).
+`services/reasoning.py` handles the second with a streaming splitter, because
+the tags arrive split across chunks. Reasoning is stored in `Message.reasoning`
+and is deliberately **not** replayed as context on the next turn.
+
+**Attachments are typed by their bytes, not their name.** `services/files.py`
+sniffs magic numbers; a `.png` full of text is stored as text. Images are
+downscaled and re-encoded (a phone photo is megabytes of base64), PDFs have
+their text extracted **once at upload** — re-extracting per request would let a
+reply change because a parser was upgraded.
+
+**Images only go to models marked `vision`.** Sending content parts to an
+endpoint without multimodal support is not graceful degradation; most reject
+the whole request. `build_request()` checks the capability and falls back to a
+plain string. A plain text turn must *stay* a plain string for the same reason.
+
+**Attachments are served, never linked.** Images reach the model as base64 data
+URIs: a local endpoint has no route back to LLeMbas and a hosted one has no
+credentials. Non-images are served `Content-Disposition: attachment` with
+`nosniff`, so an uploaded `.html` cannot execute in this origin.
+
+**Uploads are unbound until the message is sent.** `Attachment.message_id` is
+null in the composer; `files.claim()` binds them, and only unclaimed rows owned
+by that user, so a forged id cannot pull in someone else's file. Abandoned ones
+are swept at startup.
+
+**Generation is a background task; the SSE endpoint only follows it.**
+`services/generation.py` owns the work and the registry; `api/chats.py:_follow`
+watches a `Generation` and streams what it sees. Closing the connection does
+NOT stop the reply -- that was the old behaviour and it cut answers off when
+the reader navigated away. Any route that creates an assistant placeholder must
+also call `generation.ensure()`.
+
+**Stream frames carry whole blocks, not deltas.** Both `render` and `reasoning`
+send the complete text each time. That is what makes reattaching mid-reply
+work: a follower arriving late has no earlier fragments to append to. It also
+means Markdown is re-rendered whole, which is required anyway -- a list or code
+fence is only correct once its context exists.
+
+**Stopping sets a flag the producer checks.** `generation.request_stop()`;
+whatever arrived is kept and the message is marked `stopped`, which is distinct
+from `error`. In-process, so single-worker only.
+
+**Unread is polled, not pushed.** A browser on another chat has no connection
+to the one that finished. `/api/chats/unread` returns out-of-band dot spans and
+an `HX-Trigger` for the toast; `unread_notified` stops the same arrival being
+announced every tick. Re-rendering the whole sidebar instead would reset the
+folder open/closed state every 10 seconds.
+
+**Editing rewinds, it does not branch.** `POST .../messages/{id}/edit` rewrites
+a user turn and **deletes everything after it**. Branching would need a UI for
+choosing between versions; "go back and try again from here" is what was asked
+for and what other clients do. `Message.parent_id` still exists unused.
+
+**Dialogs and toasts are ours, not the browser's.** `static/js/ui.js` provides
+`lembas.notify/confirm/prompt`, and intercepts htmx's `htmx:confirm` so every
+existing `hx-confirm` gets the themed dialog with no change at the call site.
+Plain forms opt in with `data-confirm`, lone submit buttons with
+`data-confirm-button`. Never add a `window.confirm` back.
+
+**The model picker is hand-built.** A `<select>` renders only text in an
+`<option>` -- no avatar, no description, no badges. `chat/_model_picker.html`
+plus the picker block in `ui.js`; the value lives in a hidden input so it still
+behaves as a form field.
+
+**Chats are created lazily.** There is no endpoint that makes an empty chat.
+"New chat" is a link to `/chat`, which renders a composer with no row behind
+it; `POST /api/chats/start` writes the chat together with its first message.
+That is why an opened-and-abandoned chat never appears in the sidebar. Tests
+that just need a chat use the `make_chat` fixture rather than the HTTP flow.
+
+**Admin lists are list-plus-detail, never a form per row.** `/admin/models`
+renders compact rows with search, filter tabs and pagination; the full form
+lives at `/admin/models/{id}/edit`. A connection can advertise a hundred models,
+and a page that renders a form for each is unusable. Any future admin list
+(tools, agents) should follow the same shape.
+
+**Route order matters for static path segments.** FastAPI matches in
+registration order, so `/admin/models/bulk` must be registered *before*
+`/admin/models/{model_id}` or "bulk" is parsed as a model id and 404s. This has
+already been a bug once.
+
+**Pinning is not ordering.** The model picker is always in the administrator's
+`position` order. Pinned models get shortcuts in the chat sidebar and nothing
+else -- a picker whose order differs from the admin screen is just confusing.
+
+**System prompts are precedence, not concatenation.** chat > model > instance,
+most specific wins outright (`services/chat.py:effective_system_prompt`).
+Stacking them reads well in a settings screen and badly in practice: two layers
+that disagree give the model contradictory instructions and nobody can tell
+which is losing.
+
+**JSON columns need reassignment.** `user.settings_json["theme"] = x` on a
+plain dict is not detected. The columns use `MutableDict` (`db/types.py`), but
+the safe habit is `obj.field = {**obj.field, "k": v}`.
+
+**`[hidden]` needs `!important`.** The browser's rule is `[hidden] { display:
+none }`, which any class setting `display` outranks — and `.btn` is
+`display: inline-flex`. That is not theoretical: it is why the old Stop button,
+created and then `hidden = true`, sat permanently beside Send. `app.css` forces
+the attribute to win. Anything toggled with `hidden` depends on that line.
+
+**Send and Stop are one button.** `chat/_composer.html` renders both icons and
+`ui.js` flips `data-composer-action` plus `type` (`submit` ↔ `button`) when a
+message in the thread is still streaming. Do not add a second button back.
+
+**The tool loop is inside one generation.** `services/generation.py:_run()` runs
+up to `tools_service.MAX_ROUNDS` request rounds for a single reply: stream,
+accumulate tool calls, run them, append the results, ask again. `Generation`
+accumulates content across all of them, so text emitted before a tool call
+survives. Tools are only offered when search is enabled, the user has
+`tools.web_search`, **and** the model is flagged `tools` — sending a `tools`
+array to an endpoint without support fails the whole request, exactly as images
+do without `vision`.
+
+**Tool-call arguments arrive in fragments.** `delta.tool_calls` carries an
+`index`, a name that appears once, and an `arguments` string split across
+chunks. `tools.ToolCallAccumulator` rejoins them keyed on `index` — not on
+name, which breaks the moment a model calls one tool twice in a turn.
+
+**Four stores, four different reasons.** `services/library/` — `documents`
+(uploaded by a person, searched by the model), `notes` (written by the model,
+searched), `memories` (short, and *injected whole* every turn), `skills` (index
+injected, body fetched by tool). The shape of each follows from how it reaches
+the model: a memory is capped short because it costs tokens on every request
+forever, a note is not injected because a dozen would fill the window.
+
+**Documents live in knowledge bases, and the base is what is shared.** A
+`Document` always belongs to a `KnowledgeBase`; visibility comes from the base,
+never the document, which is why `Document` is absent from
+`sharing.RESOURCE_TYPES` and `documents.visible()` filters on
+`base_id IN (visible bases)`. Per-document grants would mean answering "who can
+see this?" by checking every file. `Document.base_id` is nullable only because
+the column had to be added to a table that already had rows;
+`documents.sweep_unfiled()` runs at startup and files anything predating bases
+into its owner's default.
+
+**A chat attached to bases is scoped to them.** `Chat.knowledge_bases` is
+many-to-many; empty means "everything the owner can see", not "nothing".
+`tools.context_for(db, user, chat)` carries the ids and `knowledge_search`
+filters on them — and the harness names the bases, because otherwise the model
+cannot tell "there is nothing about this" from "I am only allowed to see the
+contracts folder".
+
+**Sharing goes through one helper, and admins do not bypass it.**
+`services/sharing.py:visible_to()` is the only definition of who can see a
+library item, and every listing and tool uses it. `permissions.resolve` gives an
+admin everything, deliberately — but that is about configuration, which an admin
+can grant themselves anyway. Reading someone's private notes is not the same
+act, so `sharing` has no admin branch. Sharing grants **reading only**.
+
+**FTS5 tables are outside the model-driven schema sync.** They are not
+SQLAlchemy models, so `sync_schema()` cannot diff them; `db/migrations.py:
+ensure_fts()` writes them out with `IF NOT EXISTS` and creates the triggers that
+keep an external-content index correct. It runs at every startup and converges,
+like the column sync beside it. `tests/conftest.py` calls `sync_schema` rather
+than `create_all` so tests run against the same schema.
+
+**A failed search rolls back.** One broken FTS statement otherwise leaves the
+session unusable and every later query in the request fails too, which looks
+nothing like a search problem.
+
+**Knowledge attachments are copies.** Attaching a library document to a message
+duplicates its text and its file (`files.copy_document`). Referencing it would
+mean a conversation changing when a document is edited or deleted later — the
+same reason PDF text is extracted once at upload.
+
+**The link fetcher is an SSRF hole unless guarded.** `services/fetch.py` refuses
+loopback, private and link-local addresses **after resolution** — a hostname
+pointing at 127.0.0.1 walks past any check that only reads the URL — and follows
+redirects by hand so every hop is checked. An admin can open it deliberately.
+The URL can come from a model, which can be talked into things by a page it just
+read.
+
+**The harness is an exception to the prompt-precedence rule, on purpose.**
+"System prompts are precedence, not concatenation" governs the three *authored*
+layers, and it stands: exactly one still wins, and `effective_system_prompt`
+still decides which. `services/harness.py` is a different axis — it describes
+the machinery rather than the behaviour, nobody authored it, and there is
+nothing for it to disagree with. It is prepended to whichever authored prompt
+won, in one system message (several endpoints reject a second one), and
+`build_request` is where the two meet.
+
+**The harness holds no text.** Every piece of it is a `Fragment` in
+`services/prompts.py`, edited on `/admin/prompts`. `harness.py` decides which
+fragments apply and what their variables resolve to; `prompts.py` owns the
+wording, the storage and the substitution, and knows nothing about chats or
+tools. Four rules hold the whole thing up:
+
+- **Defaults live in code, overrides live in the database**, and text equal to
+  its default is never stored. That is what lets a later release improve a
+  default and have it reach an instance whose administrator once pressed Save.
+- **An empty override means off**, which is why there is no separate enable
+  flag: clearing the box in the admin page *is* the switch. A fragment that was
+  not submitted at all keeps whatever it had — it may be missing from the page
+  because the thing contributing it is switched off.
+- **A fragment carries its gate as data** (`families`, `requires`,
+  `when_tools`), never as a callable, because a database row can carry the same
+  three fields. `requires` is why there is no longer a hand-written pair of
+  memory-guidance variants: the sentence that refers to a section lives *inside*
+  that section, so it cannot outlive it.
+- **`{{name}}`, and anything unrecognised passes through verbatim.** Names are
+  lowercase letters, digits and underscores, so `{"total": 1}` and `${PATH}` are
+  never candidates. Substitution is one pass and never recursive — `{{memories}}`
+  carries text a model wrote, and a memory reading `{{skills}}` must not expand.
+
+A model with no tools now gets the core fragments too, the date above all.
+"An empty harness is worse than none" was about tokens that say nothing, and a
+model with no clock being asked about the present is not that. Clearing those
+fragments restores the old silence exactly.
+
+**Tool descriptions are not fragments.** They are schema, sent verbatim in the
+`tools` array, and they state facts about what a runner does — an administrator
+editing `notes_edit`'s "omit a field to leave it alone" would make the text a
+lie with nothing to catch it. The page lists them read-only so nothing injected
+is hidden. A *custom* tool's description will be editable, because it is a row.
+
+**A model's tool flags default to on when `tools` is on.** Rows configured
+before the per-tool split have no `tool_*` keys. Reading absent as off would
+silently take web search away from every model already set up for it, so
+`tools.enabled_tools` treats absent as inherited.
+
+**Tool results are not replayed.** Like reasoning, `Message.tool_calls_json` is
+stored and rendered but never fed back as context. The answer already contains
+what the model made of the results; replaying stale results and the schema into
+every later request wastes the window and reliably sends a small model into a
+search loop. The sources stay visible in the transcript.
+
+**Search results are untrusted.** Hard rule 6 covers them as much as model
+output. `chat/_tool_activity.html` escapes everything and only renders `http`
+and `https` URLs as links — a result carrying a `javascript:` URL must never
+become an anchor.
+
+**A message bubble is rendered from four places.** `pages.py`,
+`chats.post_message`, `chats.regenerate` and `chats._follow`. Each needs
+`audio_service.template_flags(db, user)` or the speaker button's conditions are
+undefined; the template uses `| default(false)` so a missed one degrades to no
+button rather than an exception. `_follow` also passes `just_finished`, which is
+what read-aloud-automatically keys off — without it, reopening a chat would
+start reading its last reply out loud.
+
+**Dictation audio never touches disk.** `api/audio.py` reads it into memory,
+capped, and streams it upstream. It is not an attachment: it has no owner, no
+row, and nothing would ever sweep it.
+
+**The service worker must skip `/api/`.** A reply is an endless event stream and
+passing one through a worker turns it into one delivery at the end, or nothing.
+`static/js/sw.js` bails out on `/api/`, `/auth/`, `/admin/` and any request
+accepting `text/event-stream`. It is served from `GET /sw.js` rather than the
+static mount because a worker's scope is the path it came from.
+
+## Changing the schema
+
+There is no Alembic, but there *is* `db/migrations.py`. It compares the declared
+models against the live database and issues `ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN` for
+anything missing, so adding a column to a model is free: restart and it appears,
+with existing rows backfilled from a type-derived default.
+
+**A nullable column is added with no default**, so existing rows get NULL --
+the value the model treats as absent. Only a NOT NULL column gets one, because
+SQLite refuses to add one without. An earlier version defaulted every column by
+type, which meant an added foreign key arrived as `""` on old rows and every
+"is this set?" check downstream was wrong about them.
+
+It cannot rename, drop or retype a column, or add a UNIQUE/PRIMARY KEY to an
+existing table — SQLite mostly cannot do those with ALTER TABLE either. Those
+need the create-copy-swap dance by hand; record them in `MANUAL_STEPS` so a
+failure has somewhere to point.
+
+Because the runner exists, forward-looking columns are cheap now. `Message.parent_id`
+and `content_parts_json` (branching, multimodal) predate it and are still unread.
+
+## Artwork
+
+Do not hand-edit files in `assets/` — they are generated. Change
+`scripts/build_artwork.py` and re-run it. It also copies the few files the app
+serves into `web/static/img/`.
+
+The leaf geometry is defined once (`LEAF_BLADE`, `LEAF_MIDRIB`, …) and reused by
+the icon, favicon, lockup and banner. The 64×64 mark must stay legible at 16px:
+the favicon variant drops the score lines, rim and veins because they turn to
+mud at that size. The icon sprite is a **template partial**
+(`templates/partials/icons.html`), not an asset, because same-document
+`<use href="#id">` is universally supported and the cross-document form is not.
+
+The `mark()` macro in `_macros.html` duplicates the mark geometry so it can be
+inlined and themed. If the mark changes, update both.
+
+## Deployment
+
+`deploy/` holds a systemd unit template, an nginx vhost template, and
+install/update scripts. Both templates are parameterised (`__PREFIX__`,
+`__SITE_HOST__`, …) and substituted at install time, so nothing host-specific is
+committed here. See `deploy/README.md`.
+
+This repository is **public**. Keep deployment-specific hostnames, ports and
+internal infrastructure detail out of it — those belong in whatever private
+notes describe the machine.
+
+## Not built yet
+
+Custom tools and MCP, agentic execution (local subprocess and SSH connection
+profiles), image generation. Nav entries mark where each one goes. The tool
+loop in `services/generation.py` is what they plug into — a new tool is a
+`ToolDef` in `services/tools.py:REGISTRY` plus a permission and a capability
+flag, not a new code path. Its guidance is the same shape: a
+`prompts.register_source` yielding one `Fragment` per tool row puts it in the
+harness, on the admin page and in the preview without touching the assembler,
+the save handler or a template.
+
+No OCR: a scanned PDF is stored with an explanatory `extraction_error` rather
+than silently contributing nothing.

+# 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, a knowledge library, notes, memory and skills, speech in and
+out, users and groups, model administration, installable as an app. 437 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
+
+### 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
+
+### 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
+
+### 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
+
+### Interface
+- [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.
+
+### Custom tools and MCP servers
+An MCP client managing configured servers, their tools surfaced alongside the
+built-in ones. The loop they plug into exists now — `services/tools.py` is a
+registry of thirteen tools and `services/generation.py` already runs bounded
+rounds — so this is a client and an admin screen rather than a change to how
+chat works.
+
+### Agentic execution
+Two modes, as originally specified:
+- **local** — subprocess on the machine LLeMbas runs on
+- **remote** — SSH connection profiles, with `shell.run` / `fs.read` / `fs.write`
+
+Needs a confirmation model before it does anything. Note that the systemd unit
+is deliberately only `ProtectSystem=full` rather than `strict` **because** of
+this — revisit the hardening when the real filesystem needs are known.
+
+### 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.

+
+*Lembas* is the Elvish waybread — one bite sustains a traveller for a day's
+march. The capitals hide what it runs on: **LLeM**bas.
+
+## Why this exists
+
+Most self-hosted LLM front-ends are large JavaScript applications with a Python
+API bolted underneath. LLeMbas is the other way round: **server-rendered
+Python**, with htmx and a little Alpine for interactivity. There is no
+`package.json`, no bundler, no build step, and nothing is fetched from a CDN at
+runtime. Clone it, `pip install -e .`, run it.
+
+## Features
+
+**Working now**
+
+- **Chats** — streaming replies, Markdown with server-side syntax highlighting,
+  copy and regenerate, automatic chat titles. Chats are created when you send
+  the first message, so an abandoned one never clutters the sidebar
+- **System prompts** — instance-wide, per-model and per-chat, with the most
+  specific winning outright
+- **Reasoning display** — thinking streams into its own collapsible block
+  (closed by default), labelled with how long it took, and is never replayed as
+  context
+- **Live Markdown** — formatting appears as the model writes, not at the end
+- **Stop and rewind** — cut a reply short and keep what arrived, or edit an
+  earlier message and run the conversation on from there
+- **Replies keep running in the background** — navigate away, open another
+  chat, close the tab; a green dot and a notification tell you when it lands
+- **Attachments** — drag, paste or pick images, PDFs and text files. Images are
+  downscaled and sent to vision models; PDF and text content is extracted and
+  put in the prompt
+- **Folders** — arbitrarily nested, delete a folder without losing the chats
+  inside it
+- **Web search** — offered to the model as a tool it calls when a question needs
+  it. DuckDuckGo out of the box (no account, no key), or point it at your own
+  SearXNG, or Firecrawl. The sources stay in the transcript
+- **Speech in and out** — dictate a message and have replies read aloud, against
+  any OpenAI-compatible audio endpoint (whisper.cpp, Speaches, Kokoro…). Each
+  person picks their own voice
+- **A library** — four places a model can reach for. **Knowledge**: documents,
+  images and web pages you collect, grouped into named bases so a chat can be
+  pointed at just the right one, searched before the web. **Notes**: longer
+  things it writes down and finds again later. **Memory**: short facts about you,
+  in front of it on every turn. **Skills**: saved procedures it can follow, and
+  write. All of it visible and editable by you, and shareable with a group or a
+  person, read-only
+- **Installable** — add it to a phone home screen or a desktop launcher and it
+  runs in its own window
+- **OpenAI connections** — point at OpenAI, LM Studio, vLLM, llama.cpp,
+  llama-swap, Ollama or OpenRouter; models are discovered and cached
+- **Model settings** — searchable, filterable list with a page per model:
+  ordering, pinned models, an instance default and a per-user default, custom
+  names, descriptions and images. Scales to hundreds of models
+- **Users, groups & permissions** — per-group grants that union rather than
+  override, and model access restricted to chosen groups
+- **Accounts** — first account becomes the administrator, argon2 password
+  hashing, revocable server-side sessions, self-service password change,
+  admin-managed accounts
+- **Admin settings** — open or close registration from the UI, stored in the
+  database and effective immediately
+- **Two themes** — *Moria* (dark) and *Shire* (light), switchable per user
+
+**Planned**
+
+Custom tools and MCP servers · agentic execution (local and over SSH) · image
+generation · OCR for scanned PDFs · semantic search in the library.
+
+See [PLAN.md](PLAN.md) for what is built, what is not, and why.
+
+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+git clone https://git.houmeres.sk/Houmeres/LLeMbas.git
+cd LLeMbas
+
+python -m venv .venv && . .venv/bin/activate
+pip install -e ".[dev,search]"   # `search` adds DuckDuckGo; drop it if unwanted
+
+cp .env.example .env
+lembas secret-key           # paste the result into LEMBAS_SECRET_KEY
+
+lembas serve                # http://127.0.0.1:8080
+```
+
+Open the address and create the first account — it becomes the administrator.
+Then go to **Admin → Connections** and add an endpoint. For a local runner that
+is usually `http://localhost:1234/v1` with no API key. Press **Test & refresh**
+and its models appear in the chat model picker.
+
+> The vendored browser libraries (htmx, Alpine) are committed, so no network
+> access is needed to run. To re-fetch or bump them:
+> `python scripts/fetch_vendor.py --update`.
+
+### Web search
+
+**Admin → Web search.** DuckDuckGo needs nothing beyond the `search` extra
+above. SearXNG needs its JSON format enabled — add `- json` under
+`search.formats` in its `settings.yml`, or every search fails. Firecrawl needs
+an API key.
+
+Search is offered to the model as a *tool*, so it decides when a question needs
+looking up. It is only offered to models marked **tools** under
+**Admin → Models**: an endpoint without tool support rejects the whole request
+rather than ignoring the extra field, so the flag is a real switch and not a
+hint.
+
+### Audio
+
+**Admin → Audio.** Two endpoints, because they are usually two servers:
+
+| | Speaks | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| Dictation | `POST /v1/audio/transcriptions` | whisper.cpp's `whisper-server`, Speaches, faster-whisper-server |
+| Read aloud | `POST /v1/audio/speech` | Kokoro-FastAPI, OpenAI |
+
+If the speech endpoint also answers `GET /v1/audio/voices` the voice list is
+read from it, and each person can pick their own under **Settings → Audio**.
+Recorded audio is passed straight through and never written to disk.
+
+> The microphone needs HTTPS or localhost. Browsers do not grant it over plain
+> HTTP, so a LAN install without TLS will not offer dictation.
+
+### The library
+
+**Sidebar → Library**, and **Settings → Memory**. Nothing is on by default for a
+model: give it the tools it should have under **Admin → Models**, where
+`tools` decides whether a tool list may be sent at all and the built-in tools are
+chosen one by one.
+
+Knowledge is organised into **bases** — one per subject, project or client. A
+chat with no base attached searches everything you have; tick some in the chat's
+settings panel and it searches only those. Sharing happens at the base: share it
+and everything in it comes too, read-only.
+
+Search is SQLite's FTS5 — keyword matching with BM25 ranking, no embedding
+service to run and nothing that stops working offline. It will not match a
+paraphrase, so a line of description on a document is worth writing.
+
+> Saving a **link** makes your server fetch a URL. Addresses on your own machine
+> and network are refused unless an administrator opts in under
+> **Admin → Web search**, because the address can come from a model and the
+> server can reach things your browser cannot.
+
+### Installing as an app
+
+Open it in a browser and use *Install* (Chromium) or *Share → Add to Home
+Screen* (iOS). This also needs HTTPS or localhost — service workers are
+unavailable over plain HTTP, and without one there is nothing to install.
+
+There is no offline mode beyond a page saying so. Everything is rendered by your
+server, so a cached conversation would be a snapshot that silently went stale.
+
+## Configuration
+
+All variables are prefixed `LEMBAS_` and can live in `.env`. See
+[`.env.example`](.env.example) for the annotated list.
+
+| Variable | Default | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `LEMBAS_SECRET_KEY` | *generated* | Signs sessions and encrypts stored API keys. **Set this.** A generated key changes every restart, signing everyone out and making stored API keys unreadable. |
+| `LEMBAS_DATA_DIR` | `./data` | SQLite database and uploads. |
+| `LEMBAS_HOST` / `LEMBAS_PORT` | `127.0.0.1` / `8080` | Bind address. |
+| `LEMBAS_ALLOW_SIGNUP` | `true` | Whether new users may register themselves — the *initial* value only. Once set under **Admin → General** the stored setting wins. The first account is always an admin regardless. |
+| `LEMBAS_DEFAULT_THEME` | `moria` | `moria` (dark) or `shire` (light). |
+| `LEMBAS_SESSION_TTL` | `2592000` | Session lifetime in seconds. |
+| `LEMBAS_REQUEST_TIMEOUT` | `300` | Seconds to wait on an upstream model. |
+
+### Commands
+
+```bash
+lembas serve          # run the server
+lembas info           # where data lives, what is configured
+lembas secret-key     # generate a value for LEMBAS_SECRET_KEY
+lembas create-admin   # create or promote an administrator
+```
+
+## How it fits together
+
+```
+Browser  ──form POST──▶  FastAPI  ──▶  SQLite
+   ▲                        │
+   │                        └──httpx──▶  any OpenAI-compatible endpoint
+   └──── server-sent events ◀───────────────┘   (streamed reply)
+```
+
+Sending a message stores the turn and returns two HTML fragments: the user's
+bubble and an empty assistant bubble carrying an `sse-connect`. That opens a
+server-sent event stream which appends tokens as they arrive, then replaces the
+whole bubble with the finished, Markdown-rendered version. Rendering and
+highlighting happen in Python, so the streamed and final views cannot disagree.

+ruff check .                        # lint
+python scripts/build_artwork.py     # regenerate the SVG artwork
+python scripts/fetch_vendor.py      # verify vendored JS against the lockfile
+```
+
+There is no Alembic. The schema is SQLite-only and synchronised at startup:
+missing tables and missing columns are added automatically, so adding a field to
+a model needs nothing but a restart. Renames, drops and retypes are still manual
+— see `CLAUDE.md`.
+
+## Artwork
+
+The logo, favicon and banner are original vector work, generated by
+[`scripts/build_artwork.py`](scripts/build_artwork.py) so the mallorn leaf stays
+identical across every size it appears at. The wordmark is
+[Source Serif 4](https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-serif) (SIL OFL 1.1)
+converted to outlines — a README banner cannot load a webfont, and `<text>`
+would render in whatever serif the reader happens to have.
+
+## Licence
+
+[GPL-3.0](LICENSE).
+
+## A note on the theme
+
+This is an independent hobby project, themed as an affectionate nod to
+J.R.R. Tolkien's world. It is **not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected
+to** the Tolkien Estate, Middle-earth Enterprises, or any related rights
+holder. All artwork here is original.

+# Deployment
+
+Installs LLeMbas as a **system** service behind nginx with a self-signed
+certificate. Written for a systemd + nginx host; tested on Arch.
+
+| | Default |
+|---|---|
+| Service user | `lembas` (system account, `nologin`) |
+| Home | `/home/lembas` |
+| Install prefix | `/srv/lembas` (bind mount of the home) |
+| Checkout | `$PREFIX/app` |
+| Virtualenv | `$PREFIX/venv` |
+| Database | `$PREFIX/data/lembas.db` |
+| Environment | `$PREFIX/lembas.env` (mode 600) |
+| Unit | `/etc/systemd/system/lembas.service` |
+| Vhost | `/etc/nginx/conf.d/<host>.conf` |
+| Listens on | `127.0.0.1:8080` — reachable only through nginx |
+
+The prefix defaults to a bind mount of the service user's home because on many
+machines the root filesystem is small while `/home` is not, and the virtualenv
+plus database belong on the larger volume. Set `PREFIX=$HOME_DIR` to skip it.
+
+## First install
+
+```bash
+SITE_HOST=chat.example ./deploy/install.sh
+```
+
+Idempotent — safe to re-run. It creates the user and bind mount, clones the
+repo, builds the venv, generates `lembas.env` with a fresh `LEMBAS_SECRET_KEY`,
+installs the unit and vhost, issues a self-signed certificate, adds a
+`/etc/hosts` entry if the name does not already resolve, and enables the
+service.
+
+Then open `https://<SITE_HOST>`, accept the certificate warning, and create the
+first account — it becomes the administrator.
+
+Everything is overridable from the environment:
+
+| Variable | Default | |
+|---|---|---|
+| `SITE_HOST` | `lembas.local` | nginx `server_name` and certificate CN |
+| `APP_PORT` | `8080` | loopback port the service binds |
+| `SERVICE_USER` | `lembas` | system account to run as |
+| `HOME_DIR` | `/home/lembas` | that account's home |
+| `PREFIX` | `/srv/lembas` | install root (bind mount of `HOME_DIR`) |
+| `REPO_URL` | this checkout's `origin` | so a fork deploys itself |
+| `LEMBAS_BRANCH` | `main` | branch to deploy |
+
+## Deploying a change
+
+```bash
+git push
+./deploy/update.sh
+```
+
+`update.sh` fetches, hard-resets the deployment checkout to `origin/main`,
+reinstalls dependencies and restarts, printing the commits it pulled. The hard
+reset is deliberate: nothing is ever edited in place there, so there is no local
+work to preserve and no conflicts to resolve.
+
+## Operating it
+
+```bash
+systemctl status lembas
+journalctl -u lembas -f
+sudo -u lembas /srv/lembas/venv/bin/lembas info      # paths and counts
+```
+
+Configuration lives in `$PREFIX/lembas.env`. Edit it and restart.
+
+## Notes
+
+**The secret key is generated once.** `install.sh` will not overwrite an
+existing `lembas.env`. Rotating `LEMBAS_SECRET_KEY` signs every user out *and*
+makes stored upstream API keys unreadable — they would have to be re-entered.
+
+**nginx buffering is off for a reason.** Replies stream as server-sent events.
+With `proxy_buffering on` (the default) nginx holds the entire reply and
+delivers it in one lump at the end, which is indistinguishable from streaming
+being broken. `proxy_read_timeout` is raised to an hour because a model can
+think for minutes before the first token.
+
+**Hardening is deliberately moderate.** `ProtectSystem=full`, not `strict`: the
+agentic features planned for later need to run commands, and a lockdown that
+has to be torn out again is worse than one that was never applied.
+
+**Use a real certificate if this is exposed beyond a trusted LAN.** The
+self-signed cert exists so the install works with no external dependencies;
+point `ssl_certificate` at a real one and nothing else needs to change.

+"""Additive schema synchronisation.
+
+This project has no Alembic, by design: it is SQLite-only and the schema is
+created at startup. That was fine until the first live instance had data in it,
+at which point adding a column to a model stopped being free -- ``create_all``
+only creates missing *tables*, so a new column silently never appears and every
+query mentioning it fails.
+
+What this module does instead is derive the migration from the models: compare
+each table's declared columns against what the database actually has, and
+``ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN`` for whatever is missing. That covers new tables
+and new columns, which is essentially every schema change this project makes.
+
+What it deliberately does NOT do:
+
+* rename, drop or retype a column
+* add a PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE constraint to an existing table
+* backfill anything requiring application logic
+
+SQLite cannot do most of those with ALTER TABLE anyway; they need the
+create-copy-swap dance. Anything in that category is a hand-written job and
+should be added to MANUAL_STEPS below so it is at least visible.

+The model is deliberately small: a flat set of named booleans, granted by an
+instance-wide baseline and widened by group membership. Permissions are a union

+away. That is the behaviour people expect, and the alternative (a deny that
+wins) makes "why can this user not do X" unanswerable without simulating every
+group.
+
+Administrators bypass the whole thing. There is no permission that can be
+withheld from an admin, because an admin can grant it back to themselves in two
+clicks; pretending otherwise would be theatre.
+
+Model *access* is separate and lives in models_visible_to(): a permission says

+"""Telling the model how to use what it has been given.
+
+A model handed a `tools` array will often ignore it. It answers from recall
+because that is what it was trained to do, and nothing in the request suggests
+otherwise. The harness is the part of the prompt that says otherwise: what day it
+is, one line per tool about *when* to reach for it, the memories, and the list of
+skills available.
+
+The text itself is not here. Every piece of it is a fragment in
+``services/prompts.py``, defaulted there and overridable by an administrator on
+``/admin/prompts``; this module decides which fragments apply to a given request
+and what their variables resolve to. That split is what lets a custom tool
+contribute its own guidance later by registering a fragment source and nothing
+else.
+
+**On the "system prompts are precedence, not concatenation" rule.** That rule
+governs the three authored layers -- instance, model, chat -- and it is untouched
+here: exactly one of them still wins, and ``chat.effective_system_prompt`` still
+decides which. This is a different axis. It describes the machinery rather than
+the behaviour, nobody authored it, and there is nothing for it to disagree with.
+So it is prepended to whichever authored prompt won, inside one system message,
+under a heading that makes the seam obvious.
+
+One system message rather than two because several endpoints reject a second one.
+The authored prompt goes last, where it is closest to the conversation.
+
+A model with no tools still gets the core fragments -- the date above all, since
+it has no clock and is being asked about a present it cannot see. That is a
+change from the original behaviour, where no tools meant no harness at all;
+clearing those fragments in the admin page restores it exactly.

+"""Tools a model may call while it answers.

+same place, which is why the registry is keyed and grouped rather than being a
+handful of if-statements.
+
+Three things gate whether a tool is offered:
+
+* the instance is configured for it (web search has a provider, and so on),
+* the reader has the permission, and
+* the chat's model is marked as having that tool.
+
+The last is not optional politeness. Sending a ``tools`` array to an endpoint
+that does not implement tool calling fails the entire request, exactly the way
+sending image parts to a model without vision does.
+
+Tools that *write* -- notes, memories, skills -- need a database session and a
+user, and they run inside a background generation that outlives the request. So
+they are handed a `ToolContext` carrying an owner id rather than a live session,
+and open their own scope, the same way `services.generation` does.
