+same container, credential and Environment.
+
+Running a newer release's bootstrap the same way is the only update. When the
+installed container runs another image, the bootstrap pulls this release's
+image and asks the running resident Kit to drain with `kit resident drain`. The
+resident stops acquiring Runs, resumptions, setup and agent CLI work, while the
+Sessions it supervises keep their renewal, owner stops, answers and reports.
+While any Agent Session is still running or unreported, including one whose Run
+was being acquired when the drain began, the bootstrap names it and leaves the
+container as it is; rerun it once they end. Once nothing remains,
+the resident stops renewing, releases its exact lease and stays quiescent, and
+the bootstrap replaces the container with one on this release's image over the
+same Kit home and workspace. The credential, Environment, Kit-home state and
+everything under the workspace are kept; anything installed elsewhere in the old
+container is not. A stopped container is replaced without a drain.
+
+If House refuses the installed Kit with `kit_upgrade_required`, including in
+its answer to a command the resident serves, the resident calls House no more,
+neither to release nor to report. It keeps supervising
+every running Session locally and never stops one to make progress. A Session
+that ends keeps its exact binding, stop observation and outcome in Kit home,
+and the drain answers ready once no supervised process runs. The updated Kit
+waits for the old lease to expire, acquires the next one and reports each held
+Session before it acquires any work, restoring no process and inventing no
+outcome.
+
+The versioned `bootstrap.json` is the machine-readable command source for this
+release. It is exported from the npm package as `@agentshouse/kit/bootstrap`
+(JSON import) and published byte-for-byte beside `connect-linux.sh` in the
+GitHub release. Its schema version is `1`, its `version` is the Kit package
+version, and `hosts` contains only bootstrap scripts published in that release.
+The package exports only the `./bootstrap` subpath; `./package.json` and source
+subpaths are not exported. For this release, only `hosts.linux` exists. In this
+schema example, `<version>` stands for the package's version:
+
+```json
+{
+  "schemaVersion": 1,
+  "version": "<version>",
+  "hosts": {
+    "linux": {
+      "command": "bash <(curl -fsSL https://github.com/agentshouse/kit/releases/download/v<version>/connect-linux.sh)",
+      "asset": {
+        "name": "connect-linux.sh",
+        "url": "https://github.com/agentshouse/kit/releases/download/v<version>/connect-linux.sh"
+      },
+      "workspace": { "argument": "--workspace", "quoting": "posix" }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+`command` is complete for the default workspace. To show a selected absolute
+workspace, append the declared `workspace.argument` and the path as one POSIX
+shell-quoted argument. For example, `/home/user/My Agents' House` becomes
+`--workspace '/home/user/My Agents'\'' House'`. Quote the entire path before
+adding it to a copyable shell command; never interpolate it as shell syntax.
+The bootstrap validates an absolute workspace root and encodes it as one Docker
+`--mount` CSV source field, including commas and double quotes in the name.
+The package manifest contains no image digest: the release workflow
+fills the immutable image digest into the published script after the package
+has been built.
 
 The bootstrap does not install native Kit on an ordinary computer. The native
 package remains for managed Nodes and an explicitly selected eligible Kit host.
 
+The same bootstrap is the host's entry point for the existing `kit` commands:
+append `kit` and the command to the connect command above, as in
+`bash <(curl -fsSL …/connect-linux.sh) kit apply` or
+`bash <(curl -fsSL …/connect-linux.sh) kit telegram connect`. It forwards the
+command and its arguments unchanged into the installed container through the
+host's Docker client and ends with the command's own output and exit status.
+Standard input stays attached and a terminal stays a terminal, so a hidden
+prompt such as the Telegram bot token is read inside the container and never
+becomes an argument or printed output. With the output redirected, the
+command's output and errors stay separate and the terminal stops echoing typed
+input until the command ends. A running container runs the command beside its
+resident Kit; a stopped one runs it in a one-off container over the same Kit
+home and workspace and stays stopped. `kit login` takes the bootstrap's own
+login route, a one-off container on the host network so the host browser can
+return to its loopback listener, or `--manual` for the URL and one-time code.
+Forwarding installs no host-native Kit and gives the container no Docker socket
+or further mount; it refuses when no Kit is installed or the installed one
+differs from this bootstrap's.
+
+The owner's working copy push is forwarded the same way: run
+`bash <(curl -fsSL …/connect-linux.sh) house git push [commit] --owner` from a
+directory beneath the workspace root, such as a Room copy under
+`working-copies/rooms/`. The bootstrap runs the container's `house` in the
+matching directory beneath `/agents/house`, through the resident's lease when
+the container runs, and refuses a directory outside the workspace before
+anything reaches House.

+## Working copies
+
+The Environment owner chooses in House which Rooms this Environment keeps
+locally, and whether it keeps `/private`. An Environment whose owner never chose
+copies nothing, and a Room joined later stays uncopied until the owner selects
+it. The resident Kit reads the saved choice through
+`POST /kit/working-copy/selection` when it starts, whenever its control stream
+connects or reconnects, and whenever House points it there after a save;
+`kit worker run` reads it once before its pass.
+
+Each selected Room becomes one ordinary Git repository at
+`/agents/house/working-copies/rooms/<room_ref>`, and `/private` one at
+`/agents/house/working-copies/private`. The Room reference names the location,
+so a Room handle change moves nothing. Every Agent launched afterwards receives
+the House path and local repository of each active copy in its context, one
+line each, such as `/rooms/work: /agents/house/working-copies/rooms/r_1x.q`.
+
+A Room repository holds the Room's complete readable content: `ROOM.md`,
+`library/`, `capture/` with its provenance sidecars, and `collaboration/`. The
+`/private` repository holds its Library, collaboration, each Room's private
+`AGENTS.md`, the `agents/` cards and `house/`. Attached settings and attachment
+bytes are not copied. The branch `main` starts at the commit House served, which
+tracks exactly the files House declares writable under the Environment's
+current grant. Every other file is read-only House content: the generated
+`.gitignore` names and explains it, so Git never tracks it, and the matching
+`.ignore` keeps it visible to ripgrep and other native search. Neither file
+grants anything, and House refuses a change to a read-only path however it is
+committed.
+
+Local edits, staging and commits change nothing in House until a commit is
+pushed. `refs/house/received` records the House content last received; each
+commit Kit wrote there, and each commit it acknowledged for a push, is a House
+state. The House revision of every file content Kit received, keyed by path and
+Git blob, stays in Kit home under `state/working-copies/`, outside the
+repository. A local commit is a local tree, never a House revision.
+
+`house git push [commit]`, run anywhere inside a copy or one of its linked
+worktrees, submits one commit, `HEAD` by default, resolved once. Kit compares
+that commit's tree with the newest House state in its history, so every linked
+worktree keeps its own base, and sends the difference as one ordinary House edit:
+a changed field, section or preamble against its own prior value, any other
+change as the whole file against its exact revision, a new file as a create and
+a committed deletion as a removal. Staged and unstaged work, and files absent
+only from the working tree, are never sent. Native `git push` reaches no House
+remote. Inside an Agent Session the push goes through that Session's bridge,
+under its own authority and provenance; outside one it needs
+`house git push [commit] --owner`, which the resident Kit carries out under its
+control lease when a resident runs, and which otherwise acquires and releases
+its own. A Session refuses `--owner`, and a missing bridge is never replaced by
+owner authority.
+
+Inside an Agent Session `git` is Kit's shim in front of the installed Git, and
+every command runs exactly as that Git runs it. In a copy or one of its linked
+worktrees the shim compares that worktree's index before and after each
+command. When `git mv` succeeds, Git's own dry run of the same command names
+which path went where, and the shim hands each move to the resident Kit, which
+keeps every moved document's successive paths in Kit home. A staged move
+belongs to its worktree's index: a command there that takes its path out of the
+index or brings it in anew, such as `git reset`, `git restore --staged`,
+`git rm`, `git stash` or `git switch`, takes it back, and so does removing the
+worktree. A `git commit` whose commit carries the move ties it to that commit.
+A tied move counts for every pushed commit whose history holds one of its
+commits, whatever the index does meanwhile. `git commit --amend` and
+`git rebase`, Kit's own rebase onto House's result included, also tie it to
+their result when the rewritten branch still carries it, so aborting the rebase
+or resetting back to the original commit keeps it as well. A `git reset` that
+leaves every commit of the move behind without touching its latest path in the
+index returns it to that worktree's index, where the next commit ties it again.
+Any other rewrite, such as a cherry-pick, leaves the move tied to its earlier
+commits. A push sends House's rename of the same document from the path its
+House base holds to the latest of its counted paths the pushed commit holds,
+when the commit no longer has the first and the base did not have the second;
+a moved file whose content also changed follows as a
+whole-file replacement at its destination. House keeps the document's identity
+and rewrites the links and references that name it; Kit reads those rewrites
+through `POST /kit/door/enumerate` and records them in the acknowledgment.
+Anything else records no move and the push sends an ordinary removal and
+creation, which House refuses while another document still refers to the
+removed one: a failed `git mv`, one undone or never committed through the
+shim, and a move made with Git outside the shim such as in the owner's own
+shell. An accepted push drops the moves its commit's history holds.
+
+House decides before any local Git step. A refusal changes nothing in House;
+after `edit_conflict` Kit records the current content House names for the
+refused paths in `refs/house/received`, reading by revision any content the
+refusal does not carry, so the agent merges or rebases onto it with native Git,
+commits, and pushes again. After acceptance Kit records House's result for the
+pushed paths, the contents an owner push receives or each accepted revision
+read by name, in a commit that covers the pushed one and in
+`refs/house/received`; a read-only path House regenerates, such as the Wiki
+index, stays out of Git. Kit then
+fast-forwards a clean branch still at the pushed commit, or rebases only its
+later commits. A result not yet readable, uncommitted tracked changes,
+a moved branch or a rebase conflict leave the branch as it was, with no stash or
+reset, and the push answers that House accepted it while local integration is
+pending; the next `house git push` finishes that integration without another
+House edit. A push whose answer was lost is recorded in Kit home before it is
+sent, and the next push by the same Session, or by the owner for an owner push,
+resends it under its original operation. Another caller cannot
+recover it: while the pushing Session lives it is refused as
+`kit_working_copy_push_pending`, and once that Session has ended Kit reads House
+again and drops it. When a retained push's operation has expired, Kit reads the
+Room again: if House holds the pushed content the push finishes as accepted,
+otherwise it is dropped and the next push submits it as a new operation.
+
+Deselecting a Room, or losing read access to it, marks its copy inactive:
+launches omit it, a new push is refused as `kit_working_copy_inactive`, and
+nothing local is deleted; a push already sent still settles and integrates. Selecting it again reads the Room
+again, advances `refs/house/received`, and replaces only the read-only content
+Kit wrote, never the branch, the index or a tracked file. A Room the owner may
+read without sync is refused as `operation_denied` and stays uncopied, while its
+ordinary remote reads are unaffected. Kit names each refused copy on its
+standard error.
