Remove the Goose agentic harness across the codebase per
docs/spec-native-harness.md §3. Goose made N sequential model calls inside the
sandbox (slow on CPU-only hardware) and forced an in-container→host Ollama
gateway that tripped the rootless-Podman slirp4netns loopback bug.
- bridge.py: delete _run_goose/_goose_argv/_goose_present + GOOSE_* consts and
the present-cache; __init__ now takes harness="simple"/max_turns=5; granted
!task runs _run_simple until the native loop lands (Phase 2).
- __main__.py: --harness {native,simple} (was {goose,simple}); drop
--goose-max-turns, add --max-turns; default harness simple.
- app.rs: /ai start accepts native|simple (plain aliases simple) instead of a
bare plain flag; refresh harness comments.
- sbx.rs: remove the in-container Ollama gateway (Docker host-gateway / Podman
slirp4netns host-loopback) and the dk_bootstrap OLLAMA_HOST env — kills the
slirp4netns loopback bug; drop Goose comments.
- bootstrap.sh: drop goose from the prereq probe.
- bootstrap-ai.sh: remove the entire Goose install block, --no-goose flag,
GOOSE_INSTALLER_URL, host config writer, and goose_bin helper.
- sandbox-bootstrap.sh: remove the in-sandbox Goose binary install + config.
- spec-goose-harness.md: banner — harness portion superseded; Podman stays.
cargo check + py_compile clean. No Goose refs remain (headroom/ untouched).

Add an installable-VM catalog that ships pointers only (no multi-GB images
in the repo). When a VM is chosen it is BUILT LOCALLY on the caller's own
machine — nothing is relayed to the room.
- scripts/vbox-library.json: 7-entry manifest (Windows 11, macOS Sonoma,
Kali, Parrot, Ubuntu 24.04, Fedora 41, Debian 12) with download
pointers, ostype, cpu/mem/disk, and build kind.
- scripts/vbox-library.sh: --list / --info / --plan / --install. Build
kinds: iso (download/--iso + createvm + boot installer; EFI+TPM for
Win11), cloudimg (delegate to vbox-new.sh, unattended), ova (import),
manual (pointer-only, e.g. macOS per Apple licensing). Detect-first:
--plan changes nothing, install refuses to clobber and rolls back
half-built VMs, direct URLs fall back to the page + --iso <path>.
- sbx.rs: vbox_library()/library_vm()/vbox_library_install() loaders +
running_vms() for live-state markers.
- app.rs: /sbx vmlib (catalog ✓installed/↓available), /sbx vmlib <id>
(pointer/notes), /sbx vmlib <id> install [--iso path] (local build);
/sbx vms now flags running VMs (▶). Registered in SBX_SUBCOMMANDS +
usage.
- ui.rs: help entry for the VM library.

The docker/podman headless-container desktop (XFCE + TigerVNC + websockify
+ noVNC published on host 127.0.0.1:6080) is removed. It was unreliable: the
desktop stack installed asynchronously during provisioning with every step
wrapped in `|| true` (silent failures), while the host port mapping existed
the moment the container ran — so opening the browser before websockify bound
6080 inside the container reset the connection (ERR_CONNECTION_RESET), with no
readiness signal and no loud failure. Containers also can't be rendered as a
real desktop by VirtualBox (no framebuffer/display), so the only desktop path
that stays is the native VirtualBox VM GUI.
Removed:
- sbx.rs: GUI_PORT const; PortHolder/port_holder()/kill_port_holder() (the
port-consent gate existed only for the noVNC publish); the `gui` param +
`-p 127.0.0.1:6080:6080` block in prepare(); HH_SBX_GUI env in dk_bootstrap();
the `gui` param on provision().
- app.rs: PendingGuiLaunch + PortPrompt structs; the port_prompt App field; the
`gui` field on PendingSudoLaunch; the port-consent modal + the sudo-submit
port check; want_gui/gui parsing + the container-GUI launch message; `gui`
threaded through spawn_launch and all call sites.
- sandbox-bootstrap.sh: the entire HH_SBX_GUI=1 desktop block.
- ui.rs / usage strings: dropped "[gui]"/"noVNC desktop" from the docker/podman
help and the /sbx usage line.
Kept (unchanged): the VirtualBox VM GUI — gui_launch() (VBoxManage startvm
--type gui), launch_vbox_gui, `/sbx vbox gui <vm>` and the `/sbx gui` alias. The
`gui` keyword is still stripped from positionals so `/sbx vbox gui <vm>` parses.
cargo check passes clean (no warnings).

GUI launch (docker/podman) now pre-flights the noVNC port (6080): if it's
already bound, a modal names the holding pid and asks before killing it and
proceeding — never a blind `bind: address already in use` collision.
Sudo capture is now uniform across every backend installer. Previously only
Docker fed the masked-modal password through `--stdin-pass`/`sudo -S`; the
captured password was silently dropped for Podman/Multipass and never wired
for VirtualBox, and those scripts used bare `sudo` (which hangs/corrupts a
raw-mode tty). Now:
- shared `run_ensure()` feeds the password to any ensure-*.sh via stdin
- podman/multipass/vbox scripts gain the docker sudo ladder
(interactive `sudo` / `--yes` `sudo -n` / `--stdin-pass` `sudo -S -p ''`)
- podman's apt path wrapped in `sh -c` so one sudo covers update+install
- vbox GUI path preflights `sudo_ready()` with actionable guidance, falling
back to fail-fast `sudo -n` instead of a tty hang

Add Podman as a rootless/daemonless sandbox backend alongside Docker,
Multipass and Local, and wire Goose in as the default agentic harness
for the granted `!task` path (bridge execs `<engine> exec <name> goose
run` and streams output to chat; auto-degrades to the simple one-shot
injector when goose is absent).
Add an optional GUI sandbox track (XFCE + TigerVNC + websockify/noVNC on
:6080) summoned via `/sbx <engine> gui`, plus container-side provisioning
in sandbox-bootstrap.sh and a host-side ensure-podman.sh prereq helper.
Refresh the in-app command help to the backend-led `/sbx <engine> [gui]`
grammar and minor ui tweaks.

Make the message-input bar part of the F5 resize cycle so its height is
adjustable without a sandbox (multi-line/wrapped inputs are now readable),
and let chat/clergy borrow height from the compose box when no terminal is
present. Add Option C masked sudo prompt that feeds `sudo -S` over stdin to
install/start Docker — the password never reaches chat, the PTY, or outbound
frames, and Docker Desktop on Linux is detected so no sudo is requested.
Fix a freeze where clicking the compose box entered layout-edit mode and
silently swallowed every keystroke: clicking the input bar no longer enters
edit mode, and typing any printable char now drops out of edit mode and types.

Previously, launching a sandbox on a machine without the backend binary
died with a raw "not installed" error and no path forward. Now the
missing backend can be installed in-line, gated on explicit consent, so
a fresh checkout can go from zero to a running sandbox without leaving
the TUI.
Folded into the existing `/sbx launch` verb rather than a new command
(menu is already dense): `/sbx launch docker|multipass [image] install`.
The `install` token opts in; without it the user gets an actionable
error naming the exact retry. The token is filtered out of positional
image parsing so it never shadows a custom image.
The install runs off-thread inside the existing spawn_launch task,
before provisioning, so the TUI never blocks and the *launching guard is
cleared via BrokerMsg on failure. A fresh Docker install also leaves its
daemon up, so launch proceeds straight through.
Scripts (detect-first, never silent, --plan dry-run, idempotent if
already present):
- ensure-multipass.sh (new): Linux→snap (clear failure if snapd absent),
macOS→brew cask, Windows→winget.
- ensure-docker.sh: new --install mode using Docker's OFFICIAL,
GPG-verified apt repo (docker-ce) on Debian/Ubuntu, with dnf
(Fedora/RHEL) and pacman (Arch) fallbacks. Deliberately avoids piping
get.docker.com into a root shell. Existing daemon-start path intact.
sbx.rs: docker_installed()/multipass_installed() detectors and
ensure_docker_install()/ensure_multipass_install() wrappers; ENSURE_MULTIPASS const.
ui.rs: help text documents the [install] option on both backends.

Multipass can only snapshot a powered-off instance, so `/sbx save` on a
running multipass sandbox previously just surfaced multipass's "instance
must be stopped" error — making the snapshot that `/sbx load` needs
impossible to create through the UI.
Now multipass save powers the instance down before snapshotting, and the
handler tears the shared session down first (same as `/sbx stop`, but
WITHOUT purging so the instance — and thus the snapshot — survives for a
later `/sbx load`). Docker is unchanged: `docker commit` captures a live
container, so its save stays non-disruptive.

The existing vbox paths only open pre-made images; there was no way to
build one from scratch. Add `/sbx launch vbox new [name]` backed by
scripts/vbox-new.sh: download an Ubuntu cloud image, convert it to a VDI,
build a cloud-init NoCloud seed that creates a sudo login user and installs
the sandbox-tools.json toolchain on first boot, then create + boot the VM.
VirtualBox guests can't be exec'd into like docker/multipass, so cloud-init
is the provisioning channel. Generates a one-time login password (or takes
--pass) and authorizes a local SSH key if present. Runs off-thread; rolls
back a half-built VM on failure.

Reorganize the help menu into one VIRTUAL MACHINES cluster covering all
backends, and bring docker/multipass/vbox to save+load parity:
- Launch-time dev toolchain: sandbox-bootstrap.sh + editable
sandbox-tools.json (vim/curl guaranteed), installed in docker AND
multipass sandboxes at provision time.
- Vbox load: vm_restore + `/sbx vmload <vm> [label]` (restore snapshot
then boot the GUI).
- Multipass load: `/sbx load` is now backend-aware (locate_snapshot +
SnapKind), mp_restore re-attaches the shared shell; teardown stops
(not purges) an instance that still has snapshots so they survive
`/sbx stop`.

Unify sandbox summoning under `/sbx launch <docker|multipass|vbox>`, each
running on the invoker's own machine. For vbox:
- `/sbx launch vbox` opens an arrow-navigable VM picker (↑↓/Enter/Tab/Esc).
- `/sbx launch vbox [gui] <vm>` boots frictionlessly for a host that already
has VirtualBox + the VM imported; a non-host appends `yes` to install
VirtualBox, import the shared appliance, and/or free VT-x first.
- `/sbx gui <vm> [yes]` kept as an alias.
Add `vm_registered()` + `import_appliance()` (VBoxManage import) in sbx.rs.
Make file transfer stream disk-to-disk so multi-GB VM images can be shared
(the old 50 MB in-memory cap blocked them): `STREAM_MAX` = 16 GiB for `/send`
(`MAX_SIZE` now guards only the in-memory tar_path for sandbox injection).
`prepare_send` stat+stream-hashes off the UI thread; `Sink`/`commit` write
incoming chunks straight to a temp `.part` file and verify SHA before moving
into place. Wire frames (offer/accept/chunk/done, 64 KB, base64) unchanged.
A received `.ova`/`.ovf` auto-imports so the recipient can immediately
`/sbx launch vbox gui <vm>`.

Two causes made a shared shell's PTY stream lag for non-host viewers and
then arrive "all at once":
1. Nagle's algorithm — PTY echo/keystrokes/chat are tiny frames; Nagle +
delayed-ACK (amplified by Tailscale RTT) coalesced them into bursts.
Set TCP_NODELAY on the client websocket (Plain/--no-tls path) and on
each server connection's socket (via ws.io_proto.transport).
2. Head-of-line blocking — ConnectionManager.broadcast awaited each
send() serially under a global lock, so the slowest viewer gated
delivery to everyone AND stalled the server's read of the broker's
next frame, backing the stream up. Give each connection its own
bounded outbound queue + writer task; broadcast now only enqueues and
never waits on a socket. A peer that overflows its backlog (4096) is
evicted (close 1013) and resyncs on reconnect rather than buffering
without bound or being fed a gapped terminal stream. Init snapshot is
enqueued as the guaranteed-first frame (send_state -> state_frame).
Adds tests/test_manager.py (FIFO, slow-client isolation, wedged
eviction, reconnect replacement). Also fmt-clean sbx.rs/theme.rs.

- /sbx save [--local] and new /sbx vmsave/vmsnaps: snapshot Docker,
Multipass, and VirtualBox; --local also writes a portable artifact
(docker .tar / VBox .ova) under hh-snapshots/ that survives pruning.
- sandbox reappears for anyone who leaves and rejoins (host replays
status + screen snapshot + ACL on Joined); SbxStatus ready handler is
now idempotent so it never wipes scrollback.
- received files auto-bridge into the hosted sandbox (ft::tar_path).
- AI agent: translate Ollama's cryptic 404 into model/host/fix guidance.
- bootstrap installs the AI layer (Ollama + default model) by default,
with consent gates; --no-ai opts out, --yes skips prompts.
- help menu lists the new save/vm flags.

- proptest-fuzz the untrusted frame parsers (sbx/ai/perm/users/decode_msg) so
a hostile relay/peer can never panic a client; fixes a decode_msg timestamp
byte-slice that panicked on a non-ASCII stamp (now char-boundary safe)
- extract a pure classify_vtx_holders() out of vtx_holders() and unit-test the
KVM/QEMU/multipass detection and stoppability rules
- headless cross-stack smoke test (smoke-e2e.sh): real relay + two TUI clients
in tmux, asserting SRP join, Fernet chat round-trip, and command dispatch

Integrate VirtualBox as a local facility rather than a shared-PTY backend: a
Windows guest has no shell to relay, so the honest fit is launching the VM's
GUI on the caller's own machine (the "share a VM, run it locally" path) — no
display is relayed to the room, so zero-knowledge is untouched.
- ensure-vbox.sh: detect-first installer mirroring ensure-docker.sh; --check,
--plan (real apt --simulate download plan, no changes), --yes; apt/dnf/
pacman/brew/winget; Secure Boot MOK warning. HH_VBOX_FORCE_MISSING lets a
demo exercise the missing->install path without uninstalling.
- sbx.rs: vbox_installed/vbox_version/list_vms/vm_running/gui_launch +
ensure_vbox_install.
- app.rs: /sbx vms (detect + list) and /sbx gui <vm> [--install] (detect-first
then startvm --type gui); /sbx launch virtualbox steers to /sbx gui.
- ui.rs help: /sbx vms and /sbx gui entries.

- /sbx save|load|snaps: docker commit → hh-snap:<label> image that
survives /sbx stop; load relaunches a fresh sandbox from it; multipass
delegates to `multipass snapshot`. Local backend unsupported.
- Help overlay redesigned into topical clusters (SANDBOX, AI AGENTS,
PERMISSIONS, FILES, APPEARANCE, KEYS, ROSTER GLYPHS), collapsed by
default; up/down highlight a cluster, left/right/Enter expand-collapse
it (tmux-style), PgUp/PgDn scroll overflow, Esc closes.
- docstring: example uses --model qwen2.5:3b (the locally-pulled model),
not llama3.

- add /pw (alias /password): reveal this room's password locally (never
broadcast); surfaced in the F1 help overlay and the join hint
- direnv-autostart/: cd-to-launch a single real-user session via direnv;
password is minted in memory at launch (never written to disk, matching the
RAM-only model) and scoped to the child process. setup.sh installs direnv,
hooks bash/zsh, and `direnv allow`s the dir
- lets-hack.sh: boot a FRESH server by default (replacing any live one) with a
--reuse opt-out; add -h/--help/-help; guard against killing the tmux session
you're attached to; switch-client into the coven when run inside tmux
- rename coven→clergy across rust/python/scripts; tests/test_coven.py→test_clergy.py
- snapshots in-progress hack-house client work (sandbox, themes, net, ui)

Linux-style user permissions inside the sandbox (the original superuser ask):
- Backends are now persistent (docker run -d + exec; multipass instance) so the
broker can provision accounts and run the shell as a chosen user.
- sbx::provision(): create a real unix account per coven member at launch; the
OWNER becomes a passwordless superuser (sudo group + /etc/sudoers.d NOPASSWD
drop-in on multipass). The shared shell runs as the owner's account.
- /sudo <user> and /unsudo <user> (owner-only): real usermod + sudoers.d in the
VM — delegate/withdraw superuser. ACL frame carries sudoers; roster shows
⛧ owner · ⚡ sudoer · ◆ driver · • member.
Verified live on a real Multipass VM: shell runs as owner@vm with
'sudo -n whoami' == root; '/sudo member' gives member 'NOPASSWD: ALL';
teardown purges the instance. Docker provisions accounts + persistent
container (shell as root; sudo pkg absent so drive-grant is the delegation).
Tests: 7 cargo tests pass; clean build.

- sbx.rs: prepare()/teardown() — multipass launch (idempotent, reuses an
existing instance) on /sbx launch multipass, delete --purge on stop;
Backend::default_image() per backend (24.04 / ubuntu:24.04).
- app.rs: async non-freezing launch — prepare runs in spawn_blocking and the
sandbox handle is handed to the run loop via a channel, so a ~30s multipass
VM boot never freezes the UI (status: "summoning…"). Sandbox is sized to the
actual pane (not fixed 24x80); broker resizes the PTY and broadcasts
{"_sbx":"resize"} on terminal-size changes; clients set their vt100 size to
match. Teardown on /sbx stop and on exit.
- net.rs: parse status rows/cols + resize frames.
Verified: cargo test (4 pass), clean build, live local sandbox via the async
path with dynamic full-width sizing. multipass 1.16.3 present; VM-boot path
implemented (live VM verify is slow, runs the same async flow).

Collaborative sandbox over the same zero-knowledge encrypted channel:
- sbx.rs: SandboxBackend (Local / Docker / Multipass) spawning a shell in a PTY
(portable-pty); reader thread pumps output to the broker.
- Broker (owner's client): /sbx launch [backend] [image] boots the sandbox and
relays PTY output as encrypted {"_sbx":"data"} frames; /sbx stop tears down.
PTY input arrives as {"_sbx":"input"} frames and is written back.
- All clients render the shared terminal from data frames via a vt100 parser;
F2 toggles drive mode (keystrokes -> input frames, incl. Ctrl-C); esc releases.
- ui.rs: sandbox pane (split below chat) with drive indicator.
- Server stays zero-knowledge: PTY bytes are Fernet-encrypted like chat/files;
the VM runs on the initiator's client, never the server.
Tests (cargo test, 4 pass): PTY I/O round-trip + headless end-to-end relay
(PTY -> _sbx frame encode -> decode -> vt100 screen shows command output).
Note: Multipass assumes the instance is launched separately (lifecycle = P3b);
per-user unix accounts + sudo delegation = P4.
