+## `eta`
+
+Measured pace: the EWMA ETA for a (model, taskType,
+complexity) key, built **only** from this project's own recorded attempts
+(the ETA sample stream in the model-analytics store). Recent attempts weigh
+more (half-life in samples, default 10); the sample count, the spread, and
+the failure rate always travel with the number — a pace without provenance
+is exactly the confident guess this replaces. Fewer than 3 successful
+attempts is **not an estimate**: the command says so instead of guessing.
+3–5 samples is `thin` (shown with the caveat); 6+ is `solid`. `--all` lists
+every key with history and **names the keys that are still too thin**
+instead of silently omitting them.
+
+| Flag | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `--model <id>` | Model id (default: the active/executor model) |
+| `--taskType <t>` / `--complexity <c>` | Sample key (default `orchestrated`/`medium`) |
+| `--all` | Every key with history: estimates + too-thin keys by name (capped at the 50 most-active keys, truncation named); `--json` with `--all` emits `{keys, estimates, truncated}` |
+| `--limit <n>` / `--half-life <n>` | Sample window (default 50) / EWMA half-life in samples (default 10) — garbage input is refused loudly, never folded |
+| `--db <path>` | Pin the analytics DB path (odd layouts; the default is the project store) |
+| `--json` | Machine-readable: `{key, estimate}` for one key, `{keys, estimates, truncated}` for `--all` |
+

+## `diff`
+
+Local diff view: what the agent changed around here, in one
+honest render — uncommitted rows (staged + unstaged vs HEAD) with per-file
++N/-N and git status glyphs, untracked paths, honest totals, and unpushed
+commits vs the base with ahead/behind and aggregate deltas. Binary files
+render `±` (unknown), never `0`. Safe-git only: execFileSync argument
+arrays, a 5s timeout, and the stateful caches (fsmonitor, untrackedCache)
+defeated. Outside a repository it prints an explicit `git:` error line —
+never a stack trace, never silence.

+The self-knowledge card (S2): a small, version-pinned digest of UAP's own
+command surface and feature catalog, generated offline from the docs that ship
+inside the installed package (`docs/reference/CLI.md` +
+`docs/reference/FEATURES.md`). An agent that must search online to learn its
+own features wastes turns and self-describes from stale sources; the card is
+the fix. Cached in the project's `.uap/self-card.md` and regenerated
+automatically when the installed version or the source docs change

+pointer block.

+## `attention`
+
+The operator attention queue: the ask-instead-of-stop rail. When a
+decision is genuinely yours — a placement parked and waiting for a swap
+approval, a grant request, a blocking question — the agent records it here
+with its context and a SAFE DEFAULT, and keeps working. The session-start hook
+shows what is waiting (plus what was auto-decided while you were away); `sweep`
+is the AFK auto-decider: anything whose grace window elapsed without an answer
+adopts its recorded safe default (logged, never silent), and anything without
+one ESCALATES instead of silently expiring. The decider only records its own
+adoption — the underlying system keeps its own lifecycle. One queue per
+checkout: the MAIN checkout's `.uap/attention.json` (the dashboard, the CLI,
+and session hooks in any worktree share it; `UAP_ATTENTION_QUEUE` pins it
+elsewhere). Fail-open, atomic, re-sanitized on load; `UAP_ATTENTION_OFF=1`

+Grace window before the AFK auto-decider may adopt an attention item's recorded safe default (`uap attention sweep`, also swept at session start). Items without a safe default escalate instead.

-
-When the *identical* tool call fails with the *identical* error, escalates decisively: pivot directive → final warning → hard-fail the session with a 400, recording each tier to the loop-incident ledger (`UAP_LOOP_INCIDENTS`, default `~/.config/uap/loop-incidents.jsonl`). Both directives are always given before the stop, so the stop lands at `max(HARD_AT, PIVOT_AT + 2)` — never earlier. `uap loops` lists the ledger and prints a ready `uap ideate`/`uap deliver` handoff for the broken loop. A fresh human user turn re-arms the guard.
-
-**Dependency:** the streaks lockstep reads are fed by the ERROR-LOOP and DOUBLING-DOWN trackers — `PROXY_ERROR_LOOP=off` or `PROXY_DOUBLING_BREAK=off` silently disarms lockstep too. `PIVOT_AT=0` disables the guard; `HARD_AT=0` disables only the hard stop.

+
+### `PROXY_SOCKET`

+| **Where** | `.uap/proxy.env` |
+| **Type** | string |
+| **Default** | `` |
+
+AF_UNIX socket the inference proxy serves IN ADDITION to its TCP port — a permission-gated (0600) model-path choke point for sandboxed and multi-user setups (unset = off).
+
+**Recommendation:** Set in .uap/proxy.env to the checkout's `.uap/proxy.sock` on shared boxes; leave unset for single-user loopback setups.
+
+### `UAP_PROXY_SOCKET`

+|---|---|

+| **Type** | string |

+
+Where `uap proxy connect` looks for the proxy socket when re-serving it on local TCP (default: the checkout's `.uap/proxy.sock`).

+### `UAP_SANDBOX_NET`
+
+| | |
+|---|---|
+| **Where** | shell env |
+| **Type** | enum (shared \| off) |
+| **Default** | `shared` |
+
+Default network mode for `uap sandbox`: shared (normal network) or off (own network namespace with nothing up — the kernel egress boundary; model access impossible by design). Strictly `shared` or `off`: any other value fails loud (exit 2), never a silent downgrade to shared.
+
+**Recommendation:** Leave shared; use `--net off` per-run for untrusted code, evals, and data-only work.
+
+### `UAP_SANDBOX_GRANTS`
+
+| | |
+|---|---|
+| **Where** | shell env |
+| **Type** | string |
+| **Default** | `` |
+
+Pins the per-session sandbox grant ledger to an explicit FILE. Default: the MAIN checkout's `.uap/sandbox-grants.json`, so every surface shares ONE consent ledger.
+
+**Recommendation:** Tests and non-standard layouts only; unset means the default shared-per-checkout ledger.
+
+### `UAP_SANDBOX_GRANTS_OFF`
+
+| | |
+|---|---|
+| **Where** | shell env |
+| **Type** | boolean |
+| **Default** | `false` |
+
+Kill switch for the grant ledger: `1` resolves zero grants (no extra writable holes). The sandbox itself and its kernel boundary are unaffected.
+
+**Recommendation:** Leave unset. Inline use only, when the ledger is misbehaving — the safe direction is always least authority.
+
+### `UAP_SANDBOX_WORKDIR`
+
+| | |
+|---|---|
+| **Where** | shell env |
+| **Type** | string |
+| **Default** | `` |

+| **Default** | `` |

+Extra writable paths, colon-separated — UNRECORDED authority, honored for compatibility. Every use is named in the audit trail and the launch banner, and entries get the same plan-time realpath re-check recorded grants get: an entry resolving to `/`, `/home`, or `$HOME` is refused loudly, and a symlink entry binds its resolved target, not the link.
+
+**Recommendation:** Prefer `uap sandbox grant <path> --session <id> --reason "..."` (recorded, TTL-bounded, revocable); use this only in throwaway scripts.
+
+### `UAP_SANDBOX_AUDIT`

+
+**Recommendation:** Tests and non-standard layouts only; leave unset so the anchor stays outside the tree it vouches for.
