-# Hearth ↔ crtr runtime compatibility — v1 (retired)
-
-This is the historical v1 contract for an external product (originally: `@crouton-kit/hearth`) that pinned a crtr package version. It ended at the node-and-surface hard cut: current crtr removes `crtr node msg`, so do not run this document's v1 command examples against a current install. Migrate consumers to [v2](hearth-crtr-v2.md), which records the replacement contract. The retired developer web surface is not part of this document's current compatibility promise.
-
-## 1. Import contract
-
-See `docs/public-api.md` for the full picture. The subset this note assumes:
-`general`, `nowIso`, and `BROKER_READ_CAPS`, all imported from the package
-root (`@crouton-kit/crouter`). No subpath beyond `.`, `./cli`, `./web` exists
-or is supported.
-
-## 2. `crtr --json sys version`
-
-Read-only. Returns an object with at minimum:
-
-```json
-{ "version": "0.3.40" }
-```
-
-`version` is a required string, a semver matching `package.json#version` of
-the installed crtr. A consumer asserting a running crtr's version (e.g. after
-a guest image roll) should exec this command in-guest and compare the
-returned `version` against the expected target — do not parse `--help` output
-or read `package.json` directly, since the installed layout is not a public
-contract.
-
-## 3. `crtr --json node msg` — immediate-delivery subset
-
-The full command supports both immediate delivery and arming a future
-trigger (`--at`/`--every`/`--when`/`--until`); this contract covers only the
-**immediate inbox-message** path, since that is the delivery an external
-caller can rely on synchronously-issued.
-
-**Invocation:**
-
-```
-<body on stdin> | crtr --json node msg --to <node-id> [--tier critical|urgent|normal|deferred]
-```
-
-- `body` — the message text, passed on stdin (or positional).
-- `--to <node-id>` — required target (a real node id; `--self` is not
-  applicable to an external caller).
-- `--tier` — optional, one of `critical | urgent | normal | deferred`.
-  Defaults to `normal` when omitted. Governs how the message is presented at
-  the target's next turn, not delivery timing.
-
-**Output** (JSON object, `outputKind: object`):
-
-| field | type | when present |
-|---|---|---|
-| `mode` | string | always — `"inbox_message"` for this subset |
-| `armed` | boolean | always — `false` for immediate delivery |
-| `target` | string | always — the target node id |
-| `delivered` | boolean | present when `armed=false`; `true` once the inbox entry is appended |
-| `revived` | boolean | present when a dormant target was revived to receive the delivery |
-| `guidance` | string | always — human/agent-readable confirmation text |
-
-**Delivery semantics — read carefully:** this appends an entry to the
-target's `inbox.jsonl` and, if the target is dormant, makes a **best-effort**
-attempt to revive it so the message is acted on. Revival is asynchronous —
-the command returning `delivered: true` means the inbox write succeeded, not
-that the target has processed the message or is now running. A caller must
-not block synchronously waiting for a revive to complete as part of this
-call; if a caller needs to know the target acted on the message, that is a
-separate, out-of-band observation (e.g. polling node status or waiting for
-the target to message back), not a guarantee `node msg` makes.
-
-## 4. Retired web surface
-
-Current crtr provides no developer web server or in-guest web port. This historical v1 compatibility document does not promise either surface.
-
-## 5. Broker `view.sock` — the `reload_auth` subset
-
-A minimal, dependency-free client can nudge a live broker to re-read
-credentials after an external auth flow completes (e.g. a login page that
-just wrote fresh OAuth tokens to disk) without importing crtr's
-`ViewSocketClient` or any frame type. This is a v1-stable subset of the full
-broker wire protocol (`src/core/runtime/broker-protocol.ts`).
-
-### 5.1 Socket path resolution
-
-- If `CRTR_SOCK_DIR` is set: `<CRTR_SOCK_DIR>/<nodeId>.sock`.
-- Otherwise: `<CRTR_HOME>/nodes/<nodeId>/view.sock` (`CRTR_HOME` defaults to
-  `~/.crouter/canvas`).
-
-### 5.2 Framing
-
-Newline-delimited JSON. Each frame is one JSON object serialized on a single
-line, terminated by `\n`. Write frames to the socket in this form; read
-replies the same way (buffer until a `\n`, then `JSON.parse` the line).
-
-### 5.3 Handshake — `hello`
-
-On connect, send:
-
-```json
-{"type":"hello","role":"observer","client_id":"<any string>"}
-```
-
-`role: "observer"` is sufficient for this subset — `reload_auth` is open to
-any client (controller or observer), since it is an idempotent local
-credential re-read that does not steer the conversation. The broker replies
-with a `welcome` frame:
-
-```json
-{"type":"welcome","snapshot":{...},"role":"observer","controller_id":"<client-id-or-null>",...}
-```
-
-The `controller_id` is the current controller's client id (a real id if a controller is held, `null` if no controller is currently connected). Observer hello does not clear an existing controller.
-
-**The `welcome.snapshot` can carry the full message/session history and may
-be many megabytes** — the read side is capped generously (`CLIENT_READ_CAPS`:
-256 MiB per frame and per total buffer), not tightly. A `reload_auth`-only
-client must tolerate this frame arriving and either parse-and-discard it or
-skip it structurally (it is still one JSON line — read and drop it) rather
-than assuming the first frame is small.
-
-### 5.4 The nudge — `reload_auth`
-
-Send:
-
-```json
-{"type":"reload_auth"}
-```
-
-No other fields. The broker re-reads on-disk auth storage and refreshes its
-model registry in response.
-
-### 5.5 The reply — `ack`
-
-```json
-{"type":"ack","for":"reload_auth","ok":true}
-```
-
-- `for` echoes the frame type that was acted on.
-- `ok: true` on success. On failure the broker may instead send an `error`
-  frame (`{"type":"error","code":"...","message":"..."}`). A minimal client
-  must read frames until it receives either `{"type":"ack","for":"reload_auth",...}` or `{"type":"error",...}` and IGNORE any non-terminal frames sent in between (notably: `model_changed` broadcasts after the ack). Only the explicit ack or error frame determines the result.
-
-### 5.6 What this subset intentionally omits
-
-No other frame type in this protocol (prompt/steer, session control, model
-selection, read-op pickers, bash execution, etc.) is part of this v1 note. A
-consumer that needs more than the `reload_auth` nudge should import
-`ViewSocketClient` from the package root rather than hand-rolling a larger
-client against this doc.
-
-## 6. `canvas.db` byte-shape — version 1
-
-**Read/compat constraint only — never a write contract.** crtr's CLI and
-runtime primitives (`spawnChild`, `reviveNode`, `node msg`, etc.) are the only
-sanctioned way to mutate canvas state. Documenting the byte-shape below is
-for a consumer that needs to *read* or *reason about* the database (e.g.
-recovering a home's identity after a guest recreate), not for direct SQL
-writes.
-
-- Opened with Node's built-in `node:sqlite` `DatabaseSync`.
-- WAL mode enabled by `openDb()`.
-- Forward-only migrations gated by `PRAGMA user_version`, currently through
-  **v12**. A consumer pinning this contract should treat `user_version` as
-  the schema version to check, not assume a fixed column set never changes
-  going forward — this note describes the shape AS OF v12 and will need a v2
-  compat note if the schema changes in a way external readers depend on.
-- **`nodes` table** — identity columns (`id`, and the fields mirrored from
-  each node's `meta.json`) are derived from `nodes/<id>/meta.json` on disk;
-  runtime columns (status, lifecycle, etc.) are row-authoritative *while the
-  local canvas.db exists*, but are **not recoverable from a wiped local DB**
-  — a rebuild re-derives identity from meta.json but cannot resurrect
-  transient runtime state that only ever lived in the row.
-- **`subscribes_to`** — DB-authoritative edge table (the push/subscription
-  spine). Not derived from any on-disk file; a wiped DB loses these edges.
-- **`spawned_by`** — provenance/audit edges, **re-derived from each node's
-  `meta.json` during a rebuild** (unlike `subscribes_to`, this one survives a
-  DB wipe as long as the node directories/meta.json files survive).
-- **Auxiliary tables**: `focuses`, `triggers`, `canvas_meta`.
-
-A consumer pinning this contract should re-verify §6 against a live crtr
-install (`PRAGMA user_version`, `.schema`) whenever bumping its pinned crtr
-version, rather than assuming this note tracks every schema change.

-# Hearth ↔ crtr runtime compatibility — v2
-
-A versioned contract for any external product (originally: `@crouton-kit/hearth`) that runs alongside a crtr install as a separate process/repo and needs a stable surface to pin a crtr package version against. "v2" names the shape described here; a future breaking change to any part of this contract gets a new compatibility document rather than silently rewriting this one.
-
-## Status and migration from v1
-
-v2 is a breaking hard cut. `crtr node msg` is removed with no alias; replace immediate delivery calls with `crtr node message send`. The immediate result no longer contains `mode` or `armed`: consumers must read exactly `target`, `delivered`, `revived`, and `guidance`. Scheduled delivery, node birth, and revival are separate `node trigger` leaves; they are not modes of `node message send`.

-# Hearth ↔ crtr runtime compatibility — v3 (retired)
-
-This is the historical v3 contract for an external product (originally: `@crouton-kit/hearth`) that pinned a crtr package version. It ended at the trigger→cron hard cut: current crtr removes the entire `node trigger` command family (`node trigger send`, `node trigger revive`, and every other trigger leaf) along with the `triggers` canvas table, so do not run this document's `node trigger` examples against a current install — they now fail with `unknown subcommand`. Migrate consumers to [v4](hearth-crtr-v4.md), which records the replacement contract built on `crtr cron`. The retired developer web surface is not part of this document's current compatibility promise.
-
-## Status and migration from v2
-
-v3 is a breaking hard cut of the storage-layout env overrides. `CRTR_SOCK_DIR` and `CRTR_CANVAS_DB` are no longer read by crtr at all: a broker's `view.sock` always binds at `<CRTR_HOME>/nodes/<nodeId>/view.sock` (§5.1), and `canvas.db` always lives at `<CRTR_HOME>/canvas.db`. A consumer that exported either variable must stop computing socket or db paths from it — exporting them is inert, but deriving paths from them now resolves to locations crtr never uses. Everything canvas-shaped therefore lives together under `CRTR_HOME`; put the whole canvas home on the storage that should survive a host recreate (crtr expects ordinary local-disk POSIX semantics there — advisory fcntl/WAL locking and AF_UNIX bind — which locally-attached block volumes provide). Sections 1–4, 5.2–5.6, and 6 are unchanged from v2.

-
-**Delivery semantics — read carefully:** this appends an entry to the
-target's `inbox.jsonl` and, if the target is dormant, makes a **best-effort**
-attempt to revive it so the message is acted on. Revival is asynchronous —
-the command returning `delivered: true` means the inbox write succeeded, not
-that the target has processed the message or is now running. A caller must
-not block synchronously waiting for a revive to complete as part of this
-call; if a caller needs to know the target acted on the message, that is a
-separate, out-of-band observation (e.g. polling node status or waiting for
-the target to message back), not a guarantee `node message send` makes.

-## 4. Retired web surface
-
-Current crtr provides no developer web server or in-guest web port. This historical v3 compatibility document does not promise either surface.
-
-## 5. Broker `view.sock` — the `reload_auth` subset
-
-A minimal, dependency-free client can nudge a live broker to re-read
-credentials after an external auth flow completes (e.g. a login page that
-just wrote fresh OAuth tokens to disk) without importing crtr's
-`ViewSocketClient` or any frame type. This is a v3-stable subset of the full
-broker wire protocol (`src/core/runtime/broker-protocol.ts`).
-
-### 5.1 Socket path resolution
-
-- Always `<CRTR_HOME>/nodes/<nodeId>/view.sock` (`CRTR_HOME` defaults to
-  `~/.crouter/canvas`). `CRTR_SOCK_DIR` is not read.
-
-### 5.2 Framing
-
-Newline-delimited JSON. Each frame is one JSON object serialized on a single
-line, terminated by `\n`. Write frames to the socket in this form; read
-replies the same way (buffer until a `\n`, then `JSON.parse` the line).
-
-### 5.3 Handshake — `hello`
-
-On connect, send:
-
-```json
-{"type":"hello","role":"observer","client_id":"<any string>"}
-```
-
-`role: "observer"` is sufficient for this subset — `reload_auth` is open to
-any client (controller or observer), since it is an idempotent local
-credential re-read that does not steer the conversation. The broker replies
-with a `welcome` frame:
-
-```json
-{"type":"welcome","snapshot":{...},"role":"observer","controller_id":"<client-id-or-null>",...}
-```
-
-The `controller_id` is the current controller's client id (a real id if a controller is held, `null` if no controller is currently connected). Observer hello does not clear an existing controller.
-
-**The `welcome.snapshot` can carry the full message/session history and may
-be many megabytes** — the read side is capped generously (`CLIENT_READ_CAPS`:
-256 MiB per frame and per total buffer), not tightly. A `reload_auth`-only
-client must tolerate this frame arriving and either parse-and-discard it or
-skip it structurally (it is still one JSON line — read and drop it) rather
-than assuming the first frame is small.
-
-### 5.4 The nudge — `reload_auth`
-
-Send:
-
-```json
-{"type":"reload_auth"}
-```
-
-No other fields. The broker re-reads on-disk auth storage and refreshes its
-model registry in response.
-
-### 5.5 The reply — `ack`
-
-```json
-{"type":"ack","for":"reload_auth","ok":true}
-```
-
-- `for` echoes the frame type that was acted on.
-- `ok: true` on success. On failure the broker may instead send an `error`
-  frame (`{"type":"error","code":"...","message":"..."}`). A minimal client
-  must read frames until it receives either `{"type":"ack","for":"reload_auth",...}` or `{"type":"error",...}` and IGNORE any non-terminal frames sent in between (notably: `model_changed` broadcasts after the ack). Only the explicit ack or error frame determines the result.
-
-### 5.6 What this subset intentionally omits
-
-No other frame type in this protocol (prompt/steer, session control, model
-selection, read-op pickers, bash execution, etc.) is part of this v3 note. A
-consumer that needs more than the `reload_auth` nudge should import
-`ViewSocketClient` from the package root rather than hand-rolling a larger
-client against this doc.
-
-## 6. `canvas.db` byte-shape — version 1
-
-**Read/compat constraint only — never a write contract.** crtr's CLI and
-runtime primitives (`spawnChild`, `reviveNode`, `node message send`, etc.) are the only
-sanctioned way to mutate canvas state. Documenting the byte-shape below is
-for a consumer that needs to *read* or *reason about* the database (e.g.
-recovering a home's identity after a guest recreate), not for direct SQL
-writes.
-
-- Opened with Node's built-in `node:sqlite` `DatabaseSync`.
-- WAL mode enabled by `openDb()`.
-- Forward-only migrations gated by `PRAGMA user_version`, currently through
-  **v12**. A consumer pinning this contract should treat `user_version` as
-  the schema version to check, not assume a fixed column set never changes
-  going forward — this note describes the shape AS OF v12 and will need a later compatibility document if the schema changes in a way external readers depend on.
-- **`nodes` table** — identity columns (`id`, and the fields mirrored from
-  each node's `meta.json`) are derived from `nodes/<id>/meta.json` on disk;
-  runtime columns (status, lifecycle, etc.) are row-authoritative *while the
-  local canvas.db exists*, but are **not recoverable from a wiped local DB**
-  — a rebuild re-derives identity from meta.json but cannot resurrect
-  transient runtime state that only ever lived in the row.
-- **`subscribes_to`** — DB-authoritative edge table (the push/subscription
-  spine). Not derived from any on-disk file; a wiped DB loses these edges.
-- **`spawned_by`** — provenance/audit edges, **re-derived from each node's
-  `meta.json` during a rebuild** (unlike `subscribes_to`, this one survives a
-  DB wipe as long as the node directories/meta.json files survive).
-- **Auxiliary tables**: `focuses`, `triggers`, `canvas_meta`.
-
-A consumer pinning this contract should re-verify §6 against a live crtr
-install (`PRAGMA user_version`, `.schema`) whenever bumping its pinned crtr
-version, rather than assuming this note tracks every schema change.
