+## Ecosystem Layer Flow
+
+SKCapstone integrates four sovereign packages into a layered stack. Each layer
+depends only on the one below it:

+  └──────┬──────┘
+         │ all layers persist state via

+  │  SKMemory   │  Storage layer — short/mid/long-term memory tiers,
+  │ (skmemory)  │  SQLite index, ChromaDB vectors, FalkorDB graph
+  └─────────────┘
+```
+
+### Layer responsibilities
+
+**CapAuth (identity)** — Generates and manages the agent's PGP keypair. Every
+outbound envelope is signed; every inbound envelope is verified against the
+sender's known public key. Publishes DID documents at three tiers: `did:key`
+(local), `did:web` mesh (Tailscale), and `did:web` public. No other layer
+handles cryptographic identity.
+
+**SKComms (transport)** — Routes `.skc.json` envelopes between agents. Abstracts
+over Syncthing (default), local file drops, and TURN-relay transports. SKChat
+and the daemon's poll loop both call `skcomms.send()` / `skcomms.receive()` — they
+never touch transport internals directly.
+
+**SKChat (messaging)** — Provides the conversation abstraction: threads, per-peer
+history, inbox polling. Calls SKComms for delivery; writes conversation records to
+SKMemory. The CLI `skcapstone chat` and the consciousness loop both use SKChat's
+`AgentMessenger` to send responses.
+
+**SKMemory (storage)** — The single source of truth for all persistent state. All
+other layers store their durable data here (memories, conversation history, FEB
+emotional states, coordination board). Three JSON file tiers (short/mid/long-term)
+are the canonical source; SQLite and ChromaDB are derived indexes rebuilt on demand.

+## Where SKCapstone lives in SKWorld
+
+SKWorld groups every capability into the **4 C's** (cloud / comms / compute / core).
+SKCapstone is a **core** capability — the agent runtime that binds the core pillars
+and **hosts** the shared platform primitives (coord board · `skscheduler` · `sk-alert` ·
+ITIL tools). It persists to **compute/data** (`skmem-pg` + Syncthing), talks to peers
+over **comms**, and routes to **compute** models.

 ```bash
-# ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc
-export SKCAPSTONE_AGENT=lumina

-### Shell Aliases (Convenience)
+### Launcher Wrappers for `claude`, `codex`, and `opencode`
+
+The shell launcher in `~/.skenv/share/skcapstone/sk-agent-picker.sh` wraps
+the three supported coding CLIs so they all launch against the same SK agent
+selection flow.
+
+What the launcher does:
 
-Add these to `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc` for quick agent switching:
+- Honors `SKAGENT` and `SKCAPSTONE_AGENT` when already set
+- Shows an interactive picker when multiple agents exist
+- Supports `--agent <name>` and `--agent=<name>` one-shot overrides
+- Exports the chosen agent to the launched process
+- Applies tool-specific YOLO flags when enabled through env vars
+- Resolves the real binary path before launch so exported shell functions do not shadow the executable
+- Offers the standard install command if `claude`, `codex`, or `opencode` is missing
+
+Sample `~/.bashrc`:
 
 ```bash
-# Launch Claude Code as different agents
-alias claude-lumina='SKCAPSTONE_AGENT=lumina claude'
-alias claude-jarvis='SKCAPSTONE_AGENT=jarvis claude'
-alias claude-opus='SKCAPSTONE_AGENT=opus claude'
-alias claude-nova='SKCAPSTONE_AGENT=nova claude'

+Common usage:
+
+```bash
+claude
+codex
+opencode
+
+claude --agent lumina
+codex --agent jarvis
+opencode --agent opus
+
+SKAGENT=sovereign codex
+skswitch tester
+opencode
+```
+
+YOLO mode (per-tool permission bypass — opt-in):
+
+- `SK_CLAUDE_YOLO=1` adds `--dangerously-skip-permissions`
+- `SK_CODEX_YOLO=1` adds `--dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox`
+- `SK_OPENCODE_YOLO=1` sets `OPENCODE_PERMISSION='{"*":"allow"}'`
+
+Each var is read live by its wrapper function, so it composes the usual ways:
+
+- **Global:** `export SK_CLAUDE_YOLO=1` in `~/.bashrc` → every launch bypasses.
+- **One launch:** `SK_CLAUDE_YOLO=1 claude` → bypass just this run.
+- **Opt out once** (when global is on): `SK_CLAUDE_YOLO=0 claude`.
+
+`skcapstone doctor` reports the state under `harness:yolo:*`: it flags the
+common trap where the bypass is active in the current shell but not persisted
+to an rc file (so a fresh shell would silently behave differently). Only enable
+YOLO on a trusted, sovereign machine — it removes every permission prompt.
+
+Missing binary handling:
+
+- `claude` offers `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code`
+- `codex` offers `npm install -g @openai/codex`
+- `opencode` offers `curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash -s -- --no-modify-path`
+
+In non-interactive shells, the launcher prints the standard install command and exits instead of hanging on a prompt.
