 - **How it checks:** it matches on the addresses the name resolves to, so a public name that resolves to `127.0.0.1` is refused too. It checks every request and WebSocket open, `host.slicc.internal` and each redirect hop included.
 - **What a refusal looks like:** a `403` whose body names the option, and `EACCES` for a WebSocket, before any connection is made.
 - **The opt-in:** `nodeTransport({ hostLoopback: true })` allows the host's loopback except ports 9222–9229. `nodeTransport({ hostLoopback: [8080, 9222] })` allows exactly the listed ports, so DevTools ports are reachable only when named. Link-local stays refused either way.
-- **Connect-time enforcement:** the kernel also checks the address each connection actually reaches, before anything is sent, so a name whose DNS answer changes after the check is still refused. A keep-alive connection opened outside this kernel's policy (by the host application, or by another kernel in the same process whose `hostLoopback` allows it) to the same origin could be reused without a new check. When a proxy is in use (`HTTP_PROXY`/`HTTPS_PROXY` with `--use-env-proxy`), the connected socket is the proxy's, so only the pre-check applies; a proxy that resolves names itself closes the rebinding window on its side.

-A command's name is any single path component without whitespace or control characters, so coreutils' `[` is in `/usr/bin` too; a name that is empty, `.` or `..`, or has a `/`, a space, a tab, a newline, NUL or another control character is skipped. Entries may also set `argv0`, `args` and `env`, and a package can set `slicc.env` for all of its commands. A WASI entry with `"preopenRoot": true` also gets `/` as a preopen (see [WASI programs](#wasi-programs)). An entry with `"argv0Path": true` gets the absolute path it was run by as `argv[0]` when that path is a link outside `/bin` and `/usr/bin` to the command, as a venv's `bin/python` is (the `#!` line of a script naming such a link included), so it can find what sits beside that link; other entries keep their `argv0`. In `env`, `${package}` is the package directory, `${cwd}` the process's working directory, and `${NAME}` the caller's `NAME` when the program starts (a default naming an unset variable is left out); a relative path that exists in the package (`lib/python3.14`, `./`) becomes that absolute path. The caller's environment wins over these defaults; a `null` value removes the variable for the command, after the caller's environment is applied (a host-networked program can drop the kernel's proxy settings that way), and a command entry can set a variable its package's `slicc.env` removes. Of two packages that define a name, the one whose name sorts first wins (compared as strings by UTF-16 code unit, so a scoped `@scope/name` comes before names that start with a letter, but after those that start with a digit), whatever order the file system lists them in. `sh` runs bash as `sh` unless a package provides its own. The installed commands appear as executables in a virtual `/usr/bin` and `/bin`, so `PATH` lookups, `command -v` and `ls /usr/bin` work without writing anything to OPFS. A process can also run a program by the path of its glue when the `.wasm` sits next to it, a wasm module by its own path (as a WASI program), and a script through its `#!` line (including `#!/usr/bin/env name`). Executing any other file fails with `ENOEXEC`, so bash runs it as a shell script, as POSIX shells do. Commands also come from pnpm's global directory. Every process gets a `PNPM_HOME` and has `$PNPM_HOME/bin` on `PATH`: root's is `/usr/local/share/pnpm` (unless the embedder sets its own), a user's `~/.local/share/pnpm` (see [Users](#users)). The kernel scans each of pnpm's global install groups (`$PNPM_HOME/global/*/<group>/node_modules`) after `/node_modules`, which wins when both provide a command. The catalog is re-read whenever anything under either changes, so `pnpm add -g @ai-ecoverse/wasi-ripgrep` makes `rg` work in the same shell, and `pnpm remove -g` removes it again.
+A command's name is any single path component without whitespace or control characters, so coreutils' `[` is in `/usr/bin` too; a name that is empty, `.` or `..`, or has a `/`, a space, a tab, a newline, NUL or another control character is skipped. Entries may also set `argv0`, `args` and `env`, and a package can set `slicc.env` for all of its commands.

In `env`, `${package}` is the package directory, `${cwd}` the process's working directory, and `${NAME}` the caller's `NAME` when the program starts (a default naming an unset variable is left out); a relative path that exists in the package (`lib/python3.14`, `./`) becomes that absolute path. The caller's environment wins over these defaults; a `null` value removes the variable for the command, after the caller's environment is applied (a host-networked program can drop the kernel's proxy settings that way), and a command entry can set a variable its package's `slicc.env` removes. The catalog reads its roots in order, and the first root that provides a name wins it: a user's own global packages (for that user's processes), `/node_modules`, root's global packages, then each appended root. Within a root, packages are read by name and the first wins (compared as strings by UTF-16 code unit, so a scoped `@scope/name` comes before names that start with a letter, but after those that start with a digit), whatever order the file system lists them in; a `PNPM_HOME`'s install groups count as one root, read group by group (by the group directory's name, effectively arbitrary for pnpm's hashed names), each by package name. A variant can take over from the package it extends with `"slicc": { "replaces": ["@ai-ecoverse/wasm-imagemagick"] }`: when it and a package it names are in the same root, it wins every command name they share, whatever the order; names only the other provides stay the other's, a third package that provides the name and sorts first still wins it, and packages that replace each other fall back to the name order. A replace never reaches into an earlier root, so root's global packages can't take a name from `/node_modules` or a user's own packages. The field must be an array of package names; anything else is ignored. `sh` runs bash as `sh` unless a package provides its own. The installed commands appear as executables in a virtual `/usr/bin` and `/bin`, so `PATH` lookups, `command -v` and `ls /usr/bin` work without writing anything to OPFS. A process can also run a program by the path of its glue when the `.wasm` sits next to it, a wasm module by its own path (as a WASI program), and a script through its `#!` line (including `#!/usr/bin/env name`).

The kernel scans each of pnpm's global install groups (`$PNPM_HOME/global/*/<group>/node_modules`) after `/node_modules`, which wins when both provide a command. The catalog is re-read whenever anything under either changes, so `pnpm add -g @ai-ecoverse/wasi-ripgrep` makes `rg` work in the same shell, and `pnpm remove -g` removes it again.
 
 **More roots:** `createKernel({ commands: { append: ['/opt/user/node_modules'] } })` (and `createNodeKernel`) scans more directories, each absolute and normalised (anything else throws a `TypeError`). A name is looked up in a user's own global packages first, then in `modules`, then in root's global packages, then in the appended roots in the order given, and the first match wins, so an appended root never shadows another command (or `sudo`). Their commands are in `/usr/bin` for every user, like root's global packages, and their `binfmt` and file system entries count too. A package in an appended root also gets a command for each `bin` entry of its `package.json` (a string `bin` is named after the package, without its scope), which runs as a `#!` script; a name its `slicc.commands` gives wins. A `bin` entry is skipped when its name isn't a command name (see above), or its file, with symlinks resolved, isn't a regular file inside the package. `/node_modules` and the global packages keep reading only `slicc.commands`. A missing root counts as empty until it appears, and an install or removal in a root is picked up as it happens. With `users: 'enforce'` a root counts only when it and every directory above it are root's and not writable by group or others; another root is skipped without a word. Under `'report'` such a root is still scanned, and reported once to `onDenial` and the report log as `{ pid: 0, uid: 0, op: 'commands', path, errno: 'EACCES' }`. Running a `bin` command needs `r` and `x` on its file under `users` (see [Permissions](#permissions)), checked when it runs, so a `0644` file is `EACCES` under `'enforce'`.

   - Its default export receives `{ fetch }`, the kernel's network transport. It returns `{ handlers, capabilities }`.
   - Its worker gets a JS program's lockdown before the module loads: its own `fetch`, `WebSocket`, storage and workers are `undefined`, and a worker where one cannot be removed does not start the driver.

 - **Approval:** `approve(req, { signal })` gets `{ id, kind: 'sudo', user, uid, target, argv, path, cwd, pid, tag?, tty?, createdAt, expiresAt, always: true }`: the caller's name and real uid, the target user, the argv as typed, the resolved `path`, the caller's directory, pid, tag and terminal, and the times in ms. It answers `'once'` (run it), `'always'` (run it, and append `NOPASSWD <user> (<target>) Cwd <dir> Cmnd <path> <args…>` to `/etc/sudoers.d/<user>`, root's `0440`, so it's never asked again for this command, these arguments, in this directory; if that can't be written, nothing runs) or `'deny'`; a throw, any other answer or no hook at all is `sudo: approval denied`. After 5 minutes the request expires (`signal` aborts with `'expired'`, and `sudo` fails with `sudo: the request expired`); when the requester ends or gets a signal while it waits, `^C` included, `signal` aborts with `'withdrawn'` and `sudo` ends with that signal's status. A user has at most one request waiting; another fails with `sudo: another request is pending`. On the page, `createKernel` relays the request from the kernel worker and back, and the abort too; `terminate()` or a failed worker aborts every request still waiting with `'withdrawn'`.
 - **What `'always'` covers:** the same command with the same arguments in the same directory, so a relative argument (`tee config.toml`) can't be pointed elsewhere by running it from another directory. It doesn't make a command that writes, or an interpreter (`bash -c`, `tee`, `cp`), safe to allow: what such a command touches depends on the files it is given, which the caller may control (a symlink, a file it owns). Keep `'always'` to commands that are safe in any state of the files they're given. Lines that kernels before `Cwd` recorded have no `Cwd`, so they match in any directory; to drop them, rewrite `/etc/sudoers.d/<user>` as root.
 - **Running:** the command runs as the caller's child, with all six ids and the groups of the target user, in the caller's directory, on its terminal, standard input, output and error, in a **process group of its own** in the caller's session, as sudo(8) runs it without a pty. When `sudo` has the terminal's foreground, it hands the terminal to the command's group, so `^C`, `^\` and `^Z` reach the command, and takes it back when the command stops or ends. `sudo` exits with the command's status, and passes `SIGTERM`, `SIGHUP`, `SIGINT`, `SIGQUIT`, `SIGUSR1`, `SIGUSR2` and `SIGALRM` on to the command's whole group, so its children get them too; it installs these relays before it asks, so one that comes while the command starts is passed on once it runs (the kernel lets `sudo` signal the group of the command it started, which its own user may not). When the command stops (`^Z`), `sudo` stops by the same signal, so the shell's `jobs`, `fg` and `bg` work on it; when it is continued, it hands the terminal back to the command if it is in the foreground (`fg`) and continues the command's group. A `sudo` killed with `-9` leaves the command running in its group, as sudo(8) does, and the shell takes the terminal back as for any job;
-- **Symlinks:** a command `sudo` started, and every process it starts in turn, follows a symlink only when root or the target user owns it: Linux's `protected_symlinks`, applied in every directory rather than only in sticky world-writable ones. Any other link is `EACCES`, and the denial names the link. That holds in every runtime: in the kernel's own path walk (JS programs' `ctx.fs` and `ctx.open`, WASI paths, `exec` and `cd` by path), in an Emscripten program's lookups (where the denial's op is `follow`), and where a WASI program resolves `..` itself. So a link the caller put where a rule's file or directory is expected (`/tmp/k4l` → `/etc/fnox`, or `config.toml` → `/etc/fnox/config.toml` in the caller's own directory) leads nowhere. `readlink`, `ls -l`, `lstat`, and removing or renaming a link still work, since they don't follow it. One gap remains: the kernel checks the links in its walk ahead of each operation, and the operation then resolves the path again, so a link swapped in between the two, by a process racing the operation, can still be followed ([#542](https://github.com/ai-ecoverse/slicc-kernel/issues/542)).

 - **Cost:** with `users: 'off'`, and with owners on for programs that don't call `sudo`, nothing is added to any call. The symlink check costs those processes one owner compare per link in the kernel's walk (the owner is already loaded) and one kernel call per link an Emscripten program follows; other processes pay nothing for it.

The version is the one npm publishes, set when the package is built (`0.0.0-dev` when run from the sources). A JS program reads it as `ctx.kernel.version`.

CPU times are measured per process, its threads and the images it exec'd included: time a worker spends waiting for the kernel's answer is system time (at most 20 ms of each call; the rest of a longer one, such as a write into a full pipe, counts as blocked), time it spends blocked (a read, a `poll` or `select` that waits, a sleep, `wait`, a futex, while stopped) is neither (a readiness check that never waits is system time), and the rest is user time; a process's times stop when it ends, a call still in flight then adds nothing, so a loop that never calls the kernel shows as user time while it runs; they show in `/proc/<pid>/stat`, `ps` and `ps()`, and the times of the children a process has waited for (theirs and their own waited-for children's, as POSIX counts them) show as its `cutime` and `cstime` in `/proc/<pid>/stat`; a stopped process is `T` there, in `/proc/<pid>/status` (`T (stopped)`) and in `ps()`; a WASI or WASIX program's `CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID` and `CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID` (`clock_time_get`) count only the time its thread runs, its own waits and blocked kernel calls left out (a sleep is not CPU time), per thread for now, so a threaded program's process clock is its calling thread's; and `/proc/stat` counts every process of the kernel, the reaped ones included, and `/proc/loadavg` averages the processes not blocked, sampled every 5 seconds.

 The kernel writes `/etc/passwd` and `/etc/group` when it starts (see [Users](#users)). While the root has none of them, or no `/etc/mtab`, reading them gets per-process ones: root is uid 0 and the realm user, uid 1000, is named after `USER`, or `web_user` (Emscripten's default) without one, so it matches `$USER`, with `HOME` as its home, so `id`, `whoami`, `ls -l` and `ps` show names. Nothing is written to OPFS, and a real file there wins.
