 starting a second client, binding an identity, or opening a network listener.
 
+The managed agent has one outbound rule: use its ordinary ours `send_message`
+tool to message the channel identity. Fleet checks that the authenticated sender
+CID exactly equals `agent`, then forwards the body as a new message to the owner
+CID that most recently sent inbound channel mail. This applies equally to progress,
+blockers, suggestions, and proactive notes: there is no task/request/update type.
+The agent never chooses an owner recipient. A single configured owner is the safe
+fallback; multiple owners without route history fail closed instead of guessing or
+broadcasting. Different devices sharing one ours identity share one CID, while
+separate authorized identities naturally hand off the route when either sends.
+
+Messages from CIDs which are neither an owner nor the configured agent are never
+injected or relayed. Fleet consumes the attempt, does not answer its sender, and
+sends the latest owner a bounded warning containing the authenticated sender CID
+but none of the attempted body. Repeated warnings use the existing dedupe/rate
+guard so hostile mail cannot become a notification amplifier.
+
 An owner request follows one ordered lifecycle on its authenticated source wire:
 
 1. Fleet sends an immediate receipt describing started, queued, or interrupting state.
 2. Periodic fleet-generated summaries may report allowlisted ACP activity shapes.
-3. The agent may explicitly send multiple high-level updates with the per-request
-   ID injected into its prompt. Phases are `working`, `approval`, and `blocked`,
-   rendered as precise `🔄`, `🔐`, and `🚧` notices. The one-line body is limited
-   to 280 characters/1024 bytes, deduplicated, capped at 20, and rate-limited to
-   one every five seconds. Reasoning, secret-like material, raw logs/tool output,
-   control characters, and late or unknown request IDs are rejected.
-4. Fleet waits for accepted intermediate sends, then emits exactly one final ACP
+3. The agent may send any non-final message to the channel identity through its
+   ordinary ours MCP tool. CID authentication is the message gate; no task ID,
+   request ID, phase, reply reference, or routing command is used.
+4. Fleet independently emits exactly one final ACP
    response (or a sanitized terminal outcome). Successful turns send regular files
    from the request outbox afterward, correlated to the same source wire.
 
-Fleet chooses the stored authenticated sender for every update; neither the CLI
-caller nor model supplies a recipient. Update audit logs contain only the hashed
-request ID prefix, phase, character count, sequence, and delivery result. Bodies
-remain memory-only and never enter the wire-ID state, authorization overlay, or
-logs. A crash therefore replays the deferred owner request instead of persisting
-an unfinished update body. `/interrupt` remains responsive and makes later
-updates for the cancelled request fail closed.
-
-Background work must not keep an ACP turn open. During the active authenticated
-request, `task open` accepts only its injected request ID and emits no owner
-message. Fleet creates a random opaque task ID and durably stores only the exact
-originating CID/wire route, expiry, counters, and content hashes. The agent may
-then tell the owner that a specialist is working, finalize, and idle. After a
-later fleet-mail wake it verifies the result and uses `task report` with
-`progress`, `done`, or `blocked`; fleet sends a new proactive follow-up from the
-already-bound channel identity, correlated to the original wire. The CLI has no
-recipient option and never broadcasts. `done` and `blocked` close the task only
-after a successful send.
-
-Tasks expire after seven days and are capped at 32 open tasks per role and eight
-per originating owner. Each allows at most 20 reports, one every five seconds.
-Reports reuse the one-sentence 280-character/1024-byte safety checks and body
-deduplication. Authorization is rechecked at send time; revocation deletes that
-owner's pending routes. The mode-0600 task file is bounded and contains no
-message/report bodies. Corruption fails closed. A durable `sending` marker is
-written before transport: if delivery fails, the response is lost, or the
-supervisor crashes mid-send, the task becomes `uncertain` and refuses automatic
-retry or later reordering. This at-most-once retry policy avoids double delivery
-when ours-mcp cannot prove whether a send crossed the boundary; an operator must
-resolve an uncertain task out of band.

-Coordinator workflow: spawn the specialist, run `task open` before the active
-owner turn ends, tell the owner work is continuing and finalize, then idle. On

+Fleet chooses the stored latest authenticated owner for every managed-agent

+- Mail to `owner_channel.identity` has two accepted origins. A CID in `owners`
+  becomes a `[fleet-owner]` instruction; the exact CID in `agent` becomes a new
+  outbound owner message. Every other CID is rejected and warned about without
+  reflecting its body. Fleet sends request notices itself, captures the ACP
+  turn's final assistant text, and sends that final back to the exact initiating
+  owner with `reply_to_wire_id`.
+
+#### Deterministic owner commands
+
+Any owner message whose trimmed text starts with `/` is a command attempt: it is
+handled by the fleet supervisor itself and never becomes an agent prompt.
+Unknown or malformed commands (wrong arguments included) answer with the help
+text instead of being forwarded; messages without a leading `/` reach the agent
+unchanged. The registry in `src/owner-channel/commands.ts` is the single source
+of truth — `/help` renders exactly that table, so adding an entry there is the
+whole registration step for a new command.
+
+| Command | Effect |
+| --- | --- |
+| `/help` (alias `/commands`) | list all deterministic owner-channel commands |
+| `/status` | report the agent's session state |
+| `/interrupt` | cancel the agent's active turn |
+| `/clear` | clear the agent's session context |
+| `/compact` | compact the agent's session context |
+| `/model <model-id>` | switch the model the agent runs on |
+| `/restart` | restart the agent, resuming its context |
+| `/force-restart` | restart the agent FRESH (context wiped) |
+| `/ls` | list running fleet sessions |
+| `/peek` | summarize recent session activity (event shapes only, no content) |
+| `/worklog` | tail the agent's worklog |
+| `/version` | report the fleet version |
+
+Implementation strategies differ but every command is deterministic:
+
+- `/help`, `/status`, `/interrupt`, `/peek`, `/worklog`, and `/version` are
+  answered by the supervisor directly. `/peek` deliberately reports event
+  *shapes* (kind, tool title, status) and never thought, agent-text, or tool
+  output bodies.
+- `/clear`, `/compact`, and `/model` deliver the raw slash text to the agent
+  harness, but only when the bundled ACP adapter for the role's harness
+  verifiably executes that command locally (pinned per harness in
+  `HARNESS_LOCAL_COMMANDS`): `claude-code` runs all three as Claude SDK
+  builtins; `codex` runs only `/compact` — `/clear` and `/model` are not
+  codex-acp builtins and would fall through to the model as an ordinary
+  prompt, so they answer with a truthful refusal instead of being forwarded.
+  When forwarded, fleet sends a `⏳` acceptance notice and reports the turn's
+  outcome on the same wire.
+- `/restart` and `/force-restart` confirm to the owner and durably mark the
+  message handled FIRST, then invoke the detached `ours-fleet restart` /
+  `force-restart` CLI — a successful bounce kills the supervisor process, so
+  nothing can be sent afterwards. `/ls` captures the CLI listing.
+
+Commands act only on the role whose channel received them (the restart target
+and session are fixed by the channel, never by message content), and the entire
+command path sits behind the authenticated owner-CID check: a non-owner sending
+`/force-restart` or `/model` is silently ignored exactly like any other
+unauthorized mail.
+
+Processed wire IDs are durably bounded for deduplication, while
 message and response bodies stay out of fleet state. Delivery is at-least-once
 across a crash (the bridge requeues fetched input before starting a turn); true
 exactly-once processing would require a leased claim/idempotency primitive in

An explicit watchdog `isolation:` block\nuses the same policy schema as a role and is applied unchanged; declare every\nextra filesystem access required by a custom prompt there.\nWhen `watch:` is omitted, each run watches the configured roles plus temporary\nfleet roles that are live when the run starts. An explicit `watch:` list is\nnever augmented.\n\nRole values override defaults. `${name}` substitutes entries from `vars`.\nOther role fields include `max_tokens`, `autocompact_pct`, and `isolation`.\nUse README.md for the complete isolation policy and resource-cap schema.\n\n## Permissions\n\nPrefer the harness-neutral `permissions` block:\n\n- `approval: ask|allow|deny`: whether actions may request or receive approval\n- `filesystem: read-only|workspace|unrestricted`: filesystem intent\n- `unattended: deny|wait`: what ACP does when no console can answer a request\n\nThe backend translates this common intent. Harness-native settings in\n`harness_options` take precedence where supplied. Do not choose\n`allow`/`unrestricted`, Codex `never`/`danger-full-access`, or Claude\n`bypassPermissions` without explicit authorization.\n\n### Creation-time isolation\n\n`ours-fleet spawn --isolation-file <path>` supplies a role's sandbox policy at\ncreation, so the FIRST launch is already confined \u2014 a role that only gains\n`isolation:` on a later `up` ran unsandboxed until then.\n\nThe file holds exactly the `isolation:` mapping documented above and nothing\nelse \u2014 the same schema, validated by the same code, so a policy written here\ncannot mean something different from the identical block in fleet.yaml:\n\n```yaml\nnetwork: deny\nfs:\n  read: [/opt/reference]\nresources:\n  mem: 2G\n```\n\nInvalid files are rejected before anything is created: no config, no state\ndirectory, no identity reservation. Works for both permanent and `--temp` roles.\n\n### Never-prompt failure\n\nThe failure this section exists to prevent leaves no error message anywhere.\n\nAn unattended role has no console. When the harness needs a permission decision\nthere is nobody to ask, so the request is refused INSIDE the harness \u2014 no\nprompt, no error, no log line. The agent simply does less than its briefing told\nit to, reports success, and nothing distinguishes that from having done the\nwork. Two settings produce it:\n\n1. a permission mode that suppresses the prompt without granting the action\n   (Claude `dontAsk`, which is why neutral `allow` maps to\n   `bypassPermissions` instead); and\n2. `unattended: deny`, which refuses every request that reaches it.\n\n**Automatic decisions are now recorded.** Every permission request decided\nwithout a human emits a completed event into\n`~/.ours-fleet/agents/<Name>/.session-events.jsonl` carrying the decision,\nwhether policy or a person made it, the policy that produced it\n(`permissions.unattended=deny` vs `permissions.approval=deny`/`=allow`),\nthe reason, and the option selected. `ours-fleet peek` and `attach` render\nthem. Automatic denial asks for a one-shot rejection, never a standing one, so a\nsingle unattended refusal cannot disable a tool for the rest of the session.\n\nA role that can auto-deny logs one line at startup saying so.\n\nTo detect an under-permissioned role BEFORE it runs, use the capability floor\nbelow: `ours-fleet doctor` fails such a role rather than letting it discover\nthe problem silently at work.\n\n### The unattended capability floor\n\nAn unattended role has no console, so a permission request cannot be answered \u2014\nit is refused, silently, inside the harness. The agent then does less than it\nwas told to and reports no error. To make that visible before launch,\n`ours-fleet config` and `ours-fleet doctor` resolve each role's neutral\npermissions through its harness and check the result against a fixed floor:\n\n- `read-state` \u2014 read its briefing, ROUTINES.md, and WORKLOG.md\n- `write-state` \u2014 append its WORKLOG and its own state files\n- `messaging` \u2014 bind its identity, send and receive ours mail\n- `monitor` \u2014 arm and observe its mail monitor\n- `workspace-edit` \u2014 edit and test files in its working directory\n- `status-commands` \u2014 run the inspection commands its briefing prescribes\n\n`doctor` reports this per role as `unattended floor: <Role>`. A role with\n`unattended: deny` that cannot meet the floor FAILS doctor, because it will\ndeny those requests with nobody to see it; with `unattended: wait` it warns,\nbecause a human can still attach and answer.\n\nSecurity meaning: `approval: allow` maps to Claude's `bypassPermissions`,\nwhich genuinely permits the actions the role was authorized to take \u2014\n`dontAsk` only suppresses the prompt while still refusing the action. Nothing\nother than an explicit `allow` is elevated: `ask` stays on Claude's default\nmode and `deny` maps to `plan`. `allow` is therefore a real grant and\nrequires explicit authorization; per-role `isolation:` remains the outer\nboundary that a permission mode cannot cross.\n\nSee also: `spawn --approval/--filesystem/--unattended` set this intent at\ncreation, and `ours-fleet config` prints each role's neutral settings, their\nnative translation, and any warning \u2014 the same text `doctor` reports.\n\nClaude `harness_options`: `permission_mode` (default, acceptEdits, plan,\ndontAsk, bypassPermissions), `plugins`, `mem_palace`, and\n`mem_palace_midsession_autosave`.\n\nCodex `harness_options`: `launcher` (auto, ours-codex, codex), `sandbox`\n(read-only, workspace-write, danger-full-access), `approval` or\n`permission_mode` (untrusted, on-request, never), `profile`, `search`,\n`config`, `add_dirs`, and `monitor`.\n\n## ACP adapters\n\nThe maintained `@agentclientprotocol/codex-acp` and\n`@agentclientprotocol/claude-agent-acp` runtimes are bundled automatically as\noptional ours-fleet dependencies. The supervisor resolves their executable\nentrypoints internally, so default ACP roles do not depend on global PATH.\nThe maintained Claude adapter requires Node 22; tmux and Codex ACP continue to\nwork on the ours-fleet core minimum of Node 20.\n\nOverride an adapter only when necessary with `session_options.acp.command`\n(string or argv list). If optional dependencies were deliberately omitted,\nours-fleet falls back to a compatible globally installed `codex-acp` or\n`claude-agent-acp`. `ours-fleet doctor -c FILE` verifies the resolved adapter.\n\n## Reliable mail wake\n\n`monitor.mode` selects exactly one wake owner:\n\n- `fleet` (default): the ours-fleet supervisor consumes body-free daemon\n  events and advances its durable cursor only after delivery is accepted. ACP\n  uses live steering when supported and falls back to structured\n  `session/prompt`; tmux uses verified console injection.\n- `native`: ours-fleet starts no supervisor monitor; the generated briefing\n  instructs Claude Code or Codex to arm its harness-native wake mechanism.\n\nSet `monitor.interrupt: true` in fleet mode to cancel active work before every\nconfigured wake. The policy is content-blind because the supervisor cannot\ninspect encrypted message bodies. Message bodies are released only when the\nrole calls the ours `get_messages` tool.\n\nThe default is `false`. For a temporary role whose mission intentionally arrives\nafter its readiness announcement, set `mode: fleet` and `interrupt: true`\nexplicitly. The readiness announcement does not change the transport: the\nmission remains ordinary ours mail, fleet injects only the body-free wake, and\nthe role calls `get_messages` before acting. Every later configured wake uses\nthe same interruption policy.\n\nLegacy `monitor.enabled: true|false` remains accepted as an alias for\n`mode: fleet|native`; use `mode` in new configuration. Codex's separate\n`harness_options.monitor: true` is native-monitor consent, not monitor-owner\nselection.\nInspect `ours-fleet status Name`, `peek Name`, role logs, and\n`~/.ours-fleet/agents/Name/.monitor-status` when diagnosing delivery.\n\n## Trusted owner channel\n\nAn ACP role may declare a separate, existing ours identity which fleet \u2014 never\nthe agent \u2014 binds:\n\n```yaml\nowner_channel:\n  identity: Coordinator Owner Channel\n  owners: [authenticated-owner-contact-cid]\n  interrupt: false\n  progress_interval_ms: 30000\n  attachments:\n    enabled: true\n    max_files_per_request: 4\n    max_file_bytes: 10485760\n    max_request_bytes: 20971520\n    retention_ms: 86400000\n    allowed_mime: [application/pdf, text/plain, image/png, audio/ogg]\n```\n\nThis does not replace the role identity. Normal identity mail remains untrusted\npeer input: the agent reads it through `get_messages` and replies through\n`send_message`. Only mail arriving on the dedicated channel from a CID in\n`owners` is injected as a direct `[fleet-owner]` prompt. Fleet itself sends\naccepted/queued/progress/interrupted/failure notices and routes the ACP turn's\nfinal assistant text back to the authenticated sender with its source wire ID.\nFor file replies, fleet injects a request-specific outbox path into the owner\nprompt. The agent copies completed artifacts there; fleet sends every regular\nfile from the channel identity with the same source wire ID and removes the\ntemporary outbox only after successful delivery. The agent never chooses a\nrecipient or calls ours `send_file` for an owner-channel response.\nExact `/status` and `/interrupt` commands bypass the model.\n\nOwner documents, images, and voice messages use the same authenticated sender\nand source-wire boundary. Fleet inspects body-free metadata first and rejects\ndisabled, over-count, over-size, or disallowed-MIME requests before selective\nretrieval. Unauthorized CIDs are never retrieved or answered. Reply-linked text\nand files from the same sender become one ordered request; a file-only wake also\nstarts a turn. Retrieved bytes must match their structured size and SHA-256,\ntheir content signature must match the declared MIME, and symlinks or non-regular\npaths fail closed. Sanitized copies live only in a mode-0700 request directory as\nmode-0600 files and are removed after completion or bounded stale retention.\n\nVoice prompts include a bounded transcript only when ours-mcp reports success.\nFailure or unavailability is explicit and preserves the private audio path as the\nfallback. Run `ours-mcp voice-status --json` to inspect the host configuration.\nA mode-0600 crash journal contains only authenticated CID and wire routing data;\nit never stores captions, filenames, paths, transcript text, or bytes. Journaled\npost-retrieval files resume selectively through `save_file`; corrupt state\ndisables attachment admission rather than weakening provenance checks.\n\nThe channel identity must be unique and must not be a role identity. The bridge\npersists bounded wire IDs only, never message/reply plaintext, and requeues input\nbefore starting its turn for at-least-once crash recovery. It currently requires\n`session: acp`: tmux has no structured, turn-correlated final answer, and pane\nscraping cannot provide the same reliable reply guarantee.\n\n### Live contact and owner administration\n\nThe supervisor which is already running the ACP role remains the sole binder of\n`owner_channel.identity`. The CLI reaches that exact live `OwnerChannel`\nthrough the role's token-authenticated, mode-0600 Unix control socket; it never\nstarts another ours client and never force-binds. An active owner turn uses the\nsame control plane for explicit bounded updates:\n\n```sh\nours-fleet owner-channel contact list <Role>\nours-fleet owner-channel contact invite <Role> [--name <label>]\nours-fleet owner-channel contact add <Role> (--invite-file <path> | --invite-stdin) [--name <label>]\nours-fleet owner-channel owner list <Role>\nours-fleet owner-channel owner authorize <Role> <exact-64-hex-contact-cid>\nours-fleet owner-channel owner revoke <Role> <exact-64-hex-contact-cid>\nours-fleet owner-channel update <Role> <request-id> --phase <working|approval|blocked> --message-stdin\nours-fleet owner-channel task open <Role> <active-request-id>\nours-fleet owner-channel task report <Role> <task-id> --phase <progress|done|blocked> --message-stdin\n```\n\nContact establishment and owner authorization are separate security steps.\n`contact add` never authorizes: invite redemption is pending until the peer\nverifies it. Once `contact list` reports the established contact, authorize\nits exact immutable CID explicitly. Invite creation emits invite material only\non stdout; acceptance reads it from a file or stdin, not argv.\n\nConfigured `owners` remain the baseline. Live authorizations/revocations are\nan immediately effective, restart-persistent overlay. `owner list` labels\nbaseline versus dynamic entries and effective status. The atomic mode-0600 file\ncontains bounded CIDs and audit actions only. Corruption disables all effective\nowners and refuses mutation rather than resurrecting authority; revoking the\nlast effective owner is always refused.\n\nA missing/stopped role, tmux session, role without `owner_channel`, unavailable\nMCP client, or a role entering shutdown returns an actionable error with no\nside effects. Management uses no network listener and never logs or persists\ninvite material.\n\nFor work delegated beyond the current owner turn, call `task open` while its\nauthenticated request ID is still active. It emits no message and returns a\nrandom opaque task ID whose mode-0600 durable record contains only the exact\noriginating CID/wire route, expiry, counters, delivery state, and body hashes.\nFinalize the ACP turn normally and idle; never keep it open or poll. After fleet\nmail wakes the coordinator, verify the specialist result and call `task report`.\nFleet rechecks authorization and sends the proactive follow-up only to the\nstored origin, correlated to the original wire. There is no recipient argument.\n`done` and `blocked` are terminal after successful delivery; `progress`\nkeeps the task open.\n\nTasks expire after seven days and are limited to 32 per role, eight per owner,\n20 reports each, and one report per five seconds. Reports use the same one-line\n280-character/1024-byte secret/reasoning/log rejection as active updates. The\nstate contains no body plaintext and corruption fails closed. Fleet persists a\npre-send marker; an ambiguous transport result becomes `uncertain` and is not\nretried or reordered, preventing duplicate delivery when the transport cannot\nprove whether the first send succeeded.\n\nThe full request lifecycle is ordered on the original authenticated source wire:\nimmediate receipt; optional allowlisted periodic activity; zero or more explicit\nagent-authored updates; an optional `\uD83D\uDD10` approval or `\uD83D\uDEA7` blocked update; one\nfinal ACP response or sanitized terminal outcome; then successful-turn files from\nthe request outbox. Updates use the request ID injected into the owner prompt,\nnever choose a recipient, and never create another channel binding.\n\nAuthored update bodies come from stdin rather than argv and must be a single\nplain-text sentence (280 characters/1024 bytes maximum). Fleet rejects empty,\noversized, control-character, reasoning, secret-like, log/tool-output, duplicate,\nunknown, late, and over-rate content. Distinct updates are limited to 20 per\nrequest and one every five seconds. The audit line retains only a hashed request\nprefix, phase, character count, sequence, and result\u2014not the body. The final ACP\ncontract remains exactly one response, ordered after every accepted update.\n\nFor a mobile owner, establish the contact first, wait for peer verification,\nauthorize its exact CID, and revoke that same CID when access ends. The bounded\nmode-0600 CID overlay survives supervisor restart and remains fail-closed on\ncorruption. Update bodies remain memory-only. After a crash/restart, unfinished\ndeferred owner input follows the existing at-least-once replay path; the restarted\nsupervisor remains the sole binder.\n\n## Stable config and YAML migration\n\n`ours-fleet config --json` emits schemaVersion 1 resolved plans. Environment\nvalues and mission/persona/bio bodies are withheld; environment keys are sorted\nand values are marked redacted. Additive fields may appear in schema 1, while a\nremoval or semantic reuse requires a new schema version.\n\nYAML parsing always rejects duplicate keys. The current default\n`--yaml-mode compat` warns with file/line/column for anchors, aliases, explicit\ntags, non-scalar keys, and multiple documents. Use `--yaml-mode strict` in CI\nnow; strict becomes the next-major default and compat is the temporary migration\nescape hatch.\n\n## Bounded worklogs, auth proxy, and model recovery\n\nAn optional `worklog: { max_kb, keep_tail_kb, max_archives }` policy rotates a\nstable snapshot at fleet-owned lifecycle points. Concurrent changes defer\nrotation. Archives remain beside WORKLOG.md with the same sensitive-state\nboundary; retention deletes only recognized fleet archive names.\n\n`auth_proxy: { kind: anthropic, base_url, required, health_url }` is Claude-only\nand loopback-only. Fleet injects only ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL and doctor rejects\ncredential env keys. The privileged reference companion is\n`contrib/anthropic-auth-proxy.mjs`; deploy it separately as a dedicated account\nwith a 0600 token file and per-role listener access. Fleet never installs it or\nreads its credential.\n\n`model_chain` is an ordered authorization list and its first entry must equal\n`model`. Only sustained high-confidence entitlement/quota 429 evidence advances\none entry. Transient 429, overload, auth, policy, and unknown errors never\ndown-shift. Runtime state is atomic in .model-recovery.json; exhaustion is\nfail-closed and held down. Change the declared chain/model and restart to\nreconcile explicitly; no chain preserves detection-only behavior.\n";

An explicit watchdog `isolation:` block\nuses the same policy schema as a role and is applied unchanged; declare every\nextra filesystem access required by a custom prompt there.\nWhen `watch:` is omitted, each run watches the configured roles plus temporary\nfleet roles that are live when the run starts. An explicit `watch:` list is\nnever augmented.\n\nRole values override defaults. `${name}` substitutes entries from `vars`.\nOther role fields include `max_tokens`, `autocompact_pct`, and `isolation`.\nUse README.md for the complete isolation policy and resource-cap schema.\n\n## Permissions\n\nPrefer the harness-neutral `permissions` block:\n\n- `approval: ask|allow|deny`: whether actions may request or receive approval\n- `filesystem: read-only|workspace|unrestricted`: filesystem intent\n- `unattended: deny|wait`: what ACP does when no console can answer a request\n\nThe backend translates this common intent. Harness-native settings in\n`harness_options` take precedence where supplied. Do not choose\n`allow`/`unrestricted`, Codex `never`/`danger-full-access`, or Claude\n`bypassPermissions` without explicit authorization.\n\n### Creation-time isolation\n\n`ours-fleet spawn --isolation-file <path>` supplies a role's sandbox policy at\ncreation, so the FIRST launch is already confined \u2014 a role that only gains\n`isolation:` on a later `up` ran unsandboxed until then.\n\nThe file holds exactly the `isolation:` mapping documented above and nothing\nelse \u2014 the same schema, validated by the same code, so a policy written here\ncannot mean something different from the identical block in fleet.yaml:\n\n```yaml\nnetwork: deny\nfs:\n  read: [/opt/reference]\nresources:\n  mem: 2G\n```\n\nInvalid files are rejected before anything is created: no config, no state\ndirectory, no identity reservation. Works for both permanent and `--temp` roles.\n\n### Never-prompt failure\n\nThe failure this section exists to prevent leaves no error message anywhere.\n\nAn unattended role has no console. When the harness needs a permission decision\nthere is nobody to ask, so the request is refused INSIDE the harness \u2014 no\nprompt, no error, no log line. The agent simply does less than its briefing told\nit to, reports success, and nothing distinguishes that from having done the\nwork. Two settings produce it:\n\n1. a permission mode that suppresses the prompt without granting the action\n   (Claude `dontAsk`, which is why neutral `allow` maps to\n   `bypassPermissions` instead); and\n2. `unattended: deny`, which refuses every request that reaches it.\n\n**Automatic decisions are now recorded.** Every permission request decided\nwithout a human emits a completed event into\n`~/.ours-fleet/agents/<Name>/.session-events.jsonl` carrying the decision,\nwhether policy or a person made it, the policy that produced it\n(`permissions.unattended=deny` vs `permissions.approval=deny`/`=allow`),\nthe reason, and the option selected. `ours-fleet peek` and `attach` render\nthem. Automatic denial asks for a one-shot rejection, never a standing one, so a\nsingle unattended refusal cannot disable a tool for the rest of the session.\n\nA role that can auto-deny logs one line at startup saying so.\n\nTo detect an under-permissioned role BEFORE it runs, use the capability floor\nbelow: `ours-fleet doctor` fails such a role rather than letting it discover\nthe problem silently at work.\n\n### The unattended capability floor\n\nAn unattended role has no console, so a permission request cannot be answered \u2014\nit is refused, silently, inside the harness. The agent then does less than it\nwas told to and reports no error. To make that visible before launch,\n`ours-fleet config` and `ours-fleet doctor` resolve each role's neutral\npermissions through its harness and check the result against a fixed floor:\n\n- `read-state` \u2014 read its briefing, ROUTINES.md, and WORKLOG.md\n- `write-state` \u2014 append its WORKLOG and its own state files\n- `messaging` \u2014 bind its identity, send and receive ours mail\n- `monitor` \u2014 arm and observe its mail monitor\n- `workspace-edit` \u2014 edit and test files in its working directory\n- `status-commands` \u2014 run the inspection commands its briefing prescribes\n\n`doctor` reports this per role as `unattended floor: <Role>`. A role with\n`unattended: deny` that cannot meet the floor FAILS doctor, because it will\ndeny those requests with nobody to see it; with `unattended: wait` it warns,\nbecause a human can still attach and answer.\n\nSecurity meaning: `approval: allow` maps to Claude's `bypassPermissions`,\nwhich genuinely permits the actions the role was authorized to take \u2014\n`dontAsk` only suppresses the prompt while still refusing the action. Nothing\nother than an explicit `allow` is elevated: `ask` stays on Claude's default\nmode and `deny` maps to `plan`. `allow` is therefore a real grant and\nrequires explicit authorization; per-role `isolation:` remains the outer\nboundary that a permission mode cannot cross.\n\nSee also: `spawn --approval/--filesystem/--unattended` set this intent at\ncreation, and `ours-fleet config` prints each role's neutral settings, their\nnative translation, and any warning \u2014 the same text `doctor` reports.\n\nClaude `harness_options`: `permission_mode` (default, acceptEdits, plan,\ndontAsk, bypassPermissions), `plugins`, `mem_palace`, and\n`mem_palace_midsession_autosave`.\n\nCodex `harness_options`: `launcher` (auto, ours-codex, codex), `sandbox`\n(read-only, workspace-write, danger-full-access), `approval` or\n`permission_mode` (untrusted, on-request, never), `profile`, `search`,\n`config`, `add_dirs`, and `monitor`.\n\n## ACP adapters\n\nThe maintained `@agentclientprotocol/codex-acp` and\n`@agentclientprotocol/claude-agent-acp` runtimes are bundled automatically as\noptional ours-fleet dependencies. The supervisor resolves their executable\nentrypoints internally, so default ACP roles do not depend on global PATH.\nThe maintained Claude adapter requires Node 22; tmux and Codex ACP continue to\nwork on the ours-fleet core minimum of Node 20.\n\nOverride an adapter only when necessary with `session_options.acp.command`\n(string or argv list). If optional dependencies were deliberately omitted,\nours-fleet falls back to a compatible globally installed `codex-acp` or\n`claude-agent-acp`. `ours-fleet doctor -c FILE` verifies the resolved adapter.\n\n## Reliable mail wake\n\n`monitor.mode` selects exactly one wake owner:\n\n- `fleet` (default): the ours-fleet supervisor consumes body-free daemon\n  events and advances its durable cursor only after delivery is accepted. ACP\n  uses live steering when supported and falls back to structured\n  `session/prompt`; tmux uses verified console injection.\n- `native`: ours-fleet starts no supervisor monitor; the generated briefing\n  instructs Claude Code or Codex to arm its harness-native wake mechanism.\n\nSet `monitor.interrupt: true` in fleet mode to cancel active work before every\nconfigured wake. The policy is content-blind because the supervisor cannot\ninspect encrypted message bodies. Message bodies are released only when the\nrole calls the ours `get_messages` tool.\n\nThe default is `false`. For a temporary role whose mission intentionally arrives\nafter its readiness announcement, set `mode: fleet` and `interrupt: true`\nexplicitly. The readiness announcement does not change the transport: the\nmission remains ordinary ours mail, fleet injects only the body-free wake, and\nthe role calls `get_messages` before acting. Every later configured wake uses\nthe same interruption policy.\n\nLegacy `monitor.enabled: true|false` remains accepted as an alias for\n`mode: fleet|native`; use `mode` in new configuration. Codex's separate\n`harness_options.monitor: true` is native-monitor consent, not monitor-owner\nselection.\nInspect `ours-fleet status Name`, `peek Name`, role logs, and\n`~/.ours-fleet/agents/Name/.monitor-status` when diagnosing delivery.\n\n## Trusted owner channel\n\nAn ACP role may declare a separate, existing ours identity which fleet \u2014 never\nthe agent \u2014 binds:\n\n```yaml\nowner_channel:\n  identity: Coordinator Owner Channel\n  owners: [authenticated-owner-contact-cid]\n  agent: authenticated-managed-agent-cid\n  interrupt: false\n  progress_interval_ms: 30000\n  attachments:\n    enabled: true\n    max_files_per_request: 4\n    max_file_bytes: 10485760\n    max_request_bytes: 20971520\n    retention_ms: 86400000\n    allowed_mime: [application/pdf, text/plain, image/png, audio/ogg]\n```\n\nThis does not replace the role identity. Normal identity mail remains untrusted\npeer input: the agent reads it through `get_messages` and replies through\n`send_message`. Mail arriving on the dedicated channel from a CID in `owners`\nis injected as a direct `[fleet-owner]` prompt. Mail from the exact `agent`\nCID is forwarded as a new message to the latest authenticated owner conversation.\nEvery other CID is rejected and warned about without reflecting its body. Fleet sends\naccepted/queued/progress/interrupted/failure notices and routes the ACP turn's\nfinal assistant text back to the authenticated sender with its source wire ID.\nFor file replies, fleet injects a request-specific outbox path into the owner\nprompt. The agent copies completed artifacts there; fleet sends every regular\nfile from the channel identity with the same source wire ID and removes the\ntemporary outbox only after successful delivery. The agent never chooses an owner\nrecipient or calls ours `send_file` for an owner-channel response.\nOwner messages whose trimmed text starts with `/` are deterministic\nsupervisor commands and never enter the model: `/help` (alias `/commands`),\n`/status`, `/interrupt`, `/clear`, `/compact`, `/model <model-id>`,\n`/restart`, `/force-restart`, `/ls`, `/peek`, `/worklog`, and\n`/version`. Unknown or malformed commands answer with the help text instead of\nbeing forwarded; plain messages reach the agent unchanged. `/clear`,\n`/compact`, and `/model` are forwarded only when the role's bundled ACP\nadapter executes them locally (claude-code: all three; codex: `/compact`\nonly) and are otherwise refused with a notice, so slash text never reaches the\nmodel as a prompt.\n\nOwner documents, images, and voice messages use the same authenticated sender\nand source-wire boundary. Fleet inspects body-free metadata first and rejects\ndisabled, over-count, over-size, or disallowed-MIME requests before selective\nretrieval. Unauthorized CIDs are never retrieved or answered. Reply-linked text\nand files from the same sender become one ordered request; a file-only wake also\nstarts a turn. Retrieved bytes must match their structured size and SHA-256,\ntheir content signature must match the declared MIME, and symlinks or non-regular\npaths fail closed. Sanitized copies live only in a mode-0700 request directory as\nmode-0600 files and are removed after completion or bounded stale retention.\n\nVoice prompts include a bounded transcript only when ours-mcp reports success.\nFailure or unavailability is explicit and preserves the private audio path as the\nfallback. Run `ours-mcp voice-status --json` to inspect the host configuration.\nA mode-0600 crash journal contains only authenticated CID and wire routing data;\nit never stores captions, filenames, paths, transcript text, or bytes. Journaled\npost-retrieval files resume selectively through `save_file`; corrupt state\ndisables attachment admission rather than weakening provenance checks.\n\nThe channel identity must be unique and must not be a role identity. The bridge\npersists bounded wire IDs only, never message/reply plaintext, and requeues input\nbefore starting its turn for at-least-once crash recovery. It currently requires\n`session: acp`: tmux has no structured, turn-correlated final answer, and pane\nscraping cannot provide the same reliable reply guarantee.\n\n### Live contact and owner administration\n\nThe supervisor which is already running the ACP role remains the sole binder of\n`owner_channel.identity`. The CLI reaches that exact live `OwnerChannel`\nthrough the role's token-authenticated, mode-0600 Unix control socket for contact\ninspection and setup; it never starts another ours client and never force-binds:\n\n```sh\nours-fleet owner-channel contact list <Role>\nours-fleet owner-channel contact invite <Role> [--name <label>]\nours-fleet owner-channel contact add <Role> (--invite-file <path> | --invite-stdin) [--name <label>]\nours-fleet owner-channel owner list <Role>\nours-fleet owner-channel owner authorize <Role> <exact-64-hex-contact-cid>\nours-fleet owner-channel owner revoke <Role> <exact-64-hex-contact-cid>\n```\n\nContact establishment and owner authorization are separate security steps.\n`contact add` never authorizes: invite redemption is pending until the peer\nverifies it. Once `contact list` reports the established contact, authorize\nits exact immutable CID explicitly. Invite creation emits invite material only\non stdout; acceptance reads it from a file or stdin, not argv.\n\nConfigured `owners` remain the baseline. On legacy channels without `agent`,\nlive authorizations/revocations are an immediately effective, restart-persistent\noverlay. Managed-agent CID gating makes fleet configuration authoritative and\ndisables live owner mutation and direct control-socket sends. `owner list` labels\nbaseline versus dynamic entries and effective status. The atomic mode-0600 file\ncontains bounded CIDs and audit actions only. Corruption disables all effective\nowners and refuses mutation rather than resurrecting authority; revoking the\nlast effective owner is always refused.\n\nA missing/stopped role, tmux session, role without `owner_channel`, unavailable\nMCP client, or a role entering shutdown returns an actionable error with no\nside effects. Management uses no network listener and never logs or persists\ninvite material.\n\nFor any non-final message\u2014progress, blocker, suggestion, or later proactive note\u2014\nthe managed agent calls ordinary ours `send_message` to the channel identity.\nFleet checks only that the authenticated sender CID exactly equals `agent`, then\nforwards the text as a new message. There is no task/request/update type, phase,\nreply correlation, or owner recipient argument. A sole owner is the safe fallback;\nwith multiple owners and no inbound route history the relay fails closed. Devices\nsharing one identity share its CID; separate owner identities hand off the route\nwhen either sends channel mail. The ACP final is separate: fleet extracts it from\nthe completed turn and deterministically replies to the initiating owner wire.\n\nThe bounded mode-0600 route state stores CIDs, wire IDs, timestamps, delivery state,\nand hashes but never message plaintext. Unauthorized attempts produce a bounded\nCID-only owner warning; attempted bodies are neither reflected nor persisted.\n\nFor a mobile owner, establish the contact first, wait for peer verification,\nauthorize its exact CID, and revoke that same CID when access ends. The bounded\nmode-0600 CID overlay survives supervisor restart and remains fail-closed on\ncorruption. Update bodies remain memory-only. After a crash/restart, unfinished\ndeferred owner input follows the existing at-least-once replay path; the restarted\nsupervisor remains the sole binder.\n\n## Stable config and YAML migration\n\n`ours-fleet config --json` emits schemaVersion 1 resolved plans. Environment\nvalues and mission/persona/bio bodies are withheld; environment keys are sorted\nand values are marked redacted. Additive fields may appear in schema 1, while a\nremoval or semantic reuse requires a new schema version.\n\nYAML parsing always rejects duplicate keys. The current default\n`--yaml-mode compat` warns with file/line/column for anchors, aliases, explicit\ntags, non-scalar keys, and multiple documents. Use `--yaml-mode strict` in CI\nnow; strict becomes the next-major default and compat is the temporary migration\nescape hatch.\n\n## Bounded worklogs, auth proxy, and model recovery\n\nAn optional `worklog: { max_kb, keep_tail_kb, max_archives }` policy rotates a\nstable snapshot at fleet-owned lifecycle points. Concurrent changes defer\nrotation. Archives remain beside WORKLOG.md with the same sensitive-state\nboundary; retention deletes only recognized fleet archive names.\n\n`auth_proxy: { kind: anthropic, base_url, required, health_url }` is Claude-only\nand loopback-only. Fleet injects only ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL and doctor rejects\ncredential env keys. The privileged reference companion is\n`contrib/anthropic-auth-proxy.mjs`; deploy it separately as a dedicated account\nwith a 0600 token file and per-role listener access. Fleet never installs it or\nreads its credential.\n\n`model_chain` is an ordered authorization list and its first entry must equal\n`model`. Only sustained high-confidence entitlement/quota 429 evidence advances\none entry. Transient 429, overload, auth, policy, and unknown errors never\ndown-shift. Runtime state is atomic in .model-recovery.json; exhaustion is\nfail-closed and held down. Change the declared chain/model and restart to\nreconcile explicitly; no chain preserves detection-only behavior.\n";
