gavrielc 2c36835762 Add an ncl tasks resource so operators can stop runaway tasks
Adds a host-side `ncl tasks` CLI resource (list/get/cancel/pause/resume)
backed by per-session inbound.db rows rather than the central DB, giving
operators a way to stop a runaway scheduled task without asking the agent
that owns it.

Amit Shafnir 411f5e71df feat(templates): local template loader, ncl --template, provider-agnostic persona and skills seams
Agent templates: folder-only templates under templates/ (context/instructions.md +
optional context extras, .mcp.json, skills/). Stamping via ncl groups create
--template writes the provider-neutral instructions.prepend.md (inlined at the top
of CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md every spawn), copies context extras preserving their
template-relative layout, writes MCP servers to container config, and installs the
per-group skills overlay. Includes docs (docs/templates.md, templates/README.md).

Setup-wizard wiring ships separately on top of this.

Rob Stevenson cf8478ffbb fix(setup): offer Slack Socket Mode in the guided setup flow
PR #2837 added Slack Socket Mode end-to-end ("adapter + guided setup") but
was merged into the `channels` branch, not `main`. As a result the
`setup:auto` Slack flow on main is webhook-only: it always collects a
signing secret and pushes the user toward a public Request URL, with no
Socket Mode option — even though setup/verify.ts already recognizes
SLACK_APP_TOKEN and the channels-branch adapter supports it.

Forward-port the setup-side of #2837 onto current main, re-authored on top
of main's current flow (back-nav, inline agent wiring, operator-role prompt,
welcome DM all preserved):

- setup/channels/slack.ts: add a mode picker (askSlackMode), mode-specific
  app-creation steps, collectAppToken() for the xapp- app-level token,
  conditional credential collection + env, and a mode-aware post-install
  checklist (Socket Mode skips the public-URL guidance).
- setup/add-slack.sh: require/persist either SLACK_APP_TOKEN (Socket Mode)
  or SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET (webhook) instead of mandating the signing secret.

Scope is setup-side only: the adapter's socket support already lives on
`channels` (#2837/#2839) and reaches users via /add-slack; the add-slack
SKILL.md doc is handled by #2700.

John Mathews dd1d0e5677 fix(security): contain channel-inbound attachments via shared inbox guard (#2828)
extractAttachmentFiles (the channel-inbound attachment path) hardened only
the per-message inbox subdir, not the `inbox` root itself. A compromised
container can write inside its own session dir, so it could replace `inbox`
with a symlink: mkdirSync({recursive}) then followed it, and the realpath
containment check passed because it compared against realpathSync(inboxRoot)
— which had already followed the symlink. A brand-new attachment file (the
`wx` flag only blocks an existing dst) therefore landed outside the session
sandbox. This is the same symlink-follow class fixed for the A2A path in
#2828 (CWE-59), but reachable from ordinary inbound messages.

Extract the guard both inbound paths need into src/inbox-safety.ts
(ensureContainedInboxDir + isPathInside): lstat-reject a pre-placed symlink
or non-dir at the inbox root AND the per-message subdir before mkdir, then a
realpath containment check. forwardAttachedFiles and extractAttachmentFiles
now share it, removing the duplicated guard logic. Callers still write with
an exclusive flag (COPYFILE_EXCL / wx) and skip-with-warn on failure.

Adds src/session-manager.attachments.test.ts (red before this change, green
after) covering the symlinked inbox-root vector on the channel path.

John Mathews 36afa40857 fix(agent-to-agent): containment-check target inbox in forwardAttachedFiles (#2828)
forwardAttachedFiles hardened only the source side of A2A attachment
forwarding; the target side called fs.mkdirSync({recursive}) and
fs.copyFileSync without any symlink or containment checks. A compromised
target agent that can write inside its own session dir could pre-place
`inbox` (or `inbox/<future-msgId>`) as a symlink pointing anywhere
host-writable — mkdirSync silently follows it and copyFileSync lands
attacker-influenced bytes outside the sandbox (CWE-59, GHSA #2828). This
mirrors the existing defensive pattern in src/session-manager.ts
saveAttachments(): lstat-reject a pre-existing symlink/non-dir at the
inbox root and the per-message subdir before mkdir, realpath + isPathInside
containment check, and an exclusive (COPYFILE_EXCL) copy that refuses to
follow or overwrite a pre-placed symlinked destination. Failures log.warn
with structured context and skip rather than throw, so one bad attachment
never kills a batch. Tests cover a symlinked inbox dir, a symlinked
inbox/<msgId> subdir, a pre-existing symlinked destination file, and a
normal end-to-end forward regression.

Without `--message`, the container comes back on the next user message. From inside a container, `--id` is auto-filled and only the calling session restarts.
## Runaway task
A scheduled task (cron) that keeps firing is a `messages_in` row with `kind='task'` in a session's `inbound.db`. When an agent won't stop one — or you'd rather not ask the misbehaving agent — use the `ncl tasks` operator surface to inspect and stop it directly from the host:
```bash
# List every pending/paused task across all groups (one row per series).
ncl tasks list
# Scope to a single agent group.
ncl tasks list --group <group-id>
# Inspect one task by id or series id.
ncl tasks get --id <task-id>
# Stop it. cancel/pause/resume match by id OR series id, so a recurring
# task's live next occurrence is caught, not just the row you looked up.
ncl tasks cancel --id <task-id>
ncl tasks pause --id <task-id>
ncl tasks resume --id <task-id>
```
The host is the legitimate writer of `inbound.db`, so these apply straight to the session DB without waking the container. `cancel` marks the series completed, `pause` holds a pending task, `resume` re-arms a paused one.
## Manual Container Probes
The container's entry point is `exec bun run /app/src/index.ts`; it talks only to the mounted session DBs, so there is no JSON to pipe in. To probe the image directly:

Conversation continuity lives in the container-owned `session_state` table in `outbound.db` (the provider's session/continuation id). The agent's `/clear` clears it. To reset a session from the host, just remove the session folder — it self-heals: the host re-creates the folder and re-initializes both DBs on the next inbound message, so you leave the central `sessions` row in place and don't need to restart the host.

# Agent Templates
A **template** is a reusable folder you stamp into a working agent group: it
carries the agent's standing instructions, its MCP tool servers, and its skills,
but **no secrets and no provider**. Point `ncl` (or the setup wizard) at one and
you get a configured agent in seconds; you choose the runtime/provider
separately.
Templates are purely additive: no DB migration, no new dependency. **At runtime,
templates are resolved only from a local directory**: `templates/` at the
project root by default (committed but shipped empty), or whatever
`NANOCLAW_TEMPLATES_DIR` points at (a local path only). The setup wizard can also
discover templates from the public registry
([`nanocoai/nanoclaw-templates`](https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw-templates))
and copy a chosen one into your local `templates/` before stamping.
## Using a template
**During install.** `bash nanoclaw.sh` opens the setup wizard. Choose **Template
setup**, then either **NanoClaw template library** (clones the public registry,
copies the template you pick into your local `templates/`) or **Local templates**
(lists what's already in `templates/`). The normal auth step then picks the
runtime, and the wizard stamps and wires your first agent.
**Anytime, via the CLI:**
```bash
ncl groups create --template sales/sdr --name "SDR Agent"
```
This stamps the group but does **not** wire it to a channel. Run
`/manage-channels` (or `ncl wirings create`) afterward, exactly as for a
hand-built group.
### The template ref
`--template <ref>` is a path **relative to the local templates directory**
(`templates/` by default, or `NANOCLAW_TEMPLATES_DIR`). Refs are multi-segment,
e.g. `sales/sdr``templates/sales/sdr`.
For safety the ref must stay inside the templates directory: absolute paths, a
leading `~`, and `../` escapes are rejected. There is no `--source`, no git URL,
and no remote fetch at `ncl` time. Populate `templates/` first (by hand, or via
the setup wizard's library option), then stamp.
`NANOCLAW_TEMPLATES_DIR` may point the library at another **local** directory; it
is never a URL and never changes at runtime.
## What's in a template
The full authoring reference lives in the
[templates repo README](https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw-templates#anatomy-of-a-template).
The short version: only `context/instructions.md` is required; everything else
is optional and defaults sensibly:
```
<template>/
├── context/
│ ├── instructions.md # REQUIRED: the agent's standing persona; marks the folder as a template
│ └── additional_context/ # optional: extra .md files, referenced from instructions.md by relative path
│ └── *.md
├── .mcp.json # optional: MCP servers (command + args), NO secrets
├── skills/<name>/ # optional: one folder per skill (SKILL.md + any references/), copied whole
└── README.md # recommended: per-template docs
```
| Path | Loaded as | Required |
|------|-----------|----------|
| `context/instructions.md` | The agent's persona, prepended to its `CLAUDE.md`/`AGENTS.md` every spawn (system-prompt tier, any provider) | **Yes** |
| `context/**/*.md` (others) | Extra context, copied into the agent's workspace with the same layout relative to `instructions.md` | No |
| `.mcp.json``mcpServers` | MCP tool servers (written verbatim to container config) | No |
| `skills/<name>/` | A skill, auto-triggered by its `description` | No |
Notes:
- **No provider, model, effort, or packages in a template.** Those are set on
the agent later via `ncl groups config update`. The runtime defaults to the
install's configured provider.
- **Keep `instructions.md` focused (under ~200 lines).** It's always in the
agent's prompt, and some providers cap that doc (Codex ~32 KB), so an over-long
persona gets truncated. Put bulk material in `skills/` or extra context files instead.
- Skills are copied into the agent's own skills overlay, keyed to that group,
never shared across groups.
### Referencing extra context files
Extra `.md` files under `context/` (by convention in an `additional_context/`
subfolder) are copied into the agent's workspace preserving their position
relative to `instructions.md` — a template file at
`context/additional_context/pricing.md` is readable by the agent as
`additional_context/pricing.md`, the same relative path you'd use from
`instructions.md` itself. Nothing is injected automatically: the agent only
reads an extra file if `instructions.md` points to it, so reference every file
you ship.
```markdown
Pricing rules live in `additional_context/pricing.md`. Read it before quoting a price.
```
Context files are copied when you stamp, so files added to the template later
won't reach an already-created agent. Re-stamp the same name to update it.
## MCP servers and credentials
**Templates declare MCP servers, not secrets.** `.mcp.json` carries `command` +
`args` only:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"hubspot": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@hubspot/mcp-server"] },
"exa": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "exa-mcp-server"] }
}
}
```
Credentials are held by the **credentials proxy** and injected into outbound
HTTPS calls at the proxy boundary, matched by API host, at request time. The key
never sits in `.mcp.json`, the container env, or chat context. See
[the credentials proxy section in CLAUDE.md](../CLAUDE.md#secrets--credentials--onecli)
for the model.
Two ways a credential gets connected:
1. **Up front.** Register the secret with the credentials proxy (its web UI or
CLI), matched to the service's API host (e.g. `api.example.com`). Matching
credentials are injected automatically, so usually nothing else is needed.
2. **On demand (the common path).** Don't set anything up first. The first time
the agent calls a service with no credential, the API returns **401/403** and
the agent replies with a prefilled connect link for that host. The user opens
it, pastes the key, and asks the agent to retry. The key lands in the
credentials proxy, which injects it on every later call.
### MCP servers that require an env var to boot
Some MCP servers refuse to start unless an env var is *present*, even though the
real credential should come from the credentials proxy, not the env. Because `.mcp.json`'s `env`
block passes through verbatim to the agent's container config, put a **placeholder
value** there to satisfy the boot check:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"acme": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@acme/mcp-server"],
"env": { "ACME_API_KEY": "placeholder" }
}
}
}
```
The server starts; its real outbound calls are still authenticated by the
credentials proxy. **Never put a real key in `env`**: a placeholder only, and only when
the server won't boot without one.
### Approval-gating sensitive actions
The credentials proxy can *hold* a credentialed outbound request and require a
human to approve it before it leaves the proxy: enforcement the agent can't talk
around. This is matched on the outbound HTTP request (host + method + path),
configured on the credentials proxy, and answered by NanoClaw (it DMs an approver). The host side is
already wired; see
[the credentialed-approval flow in CLAUDE.md](../CLAUDE.md#requiring-approval-for-credential-use)
and the [`sales/sdr` template README](https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw-templates/blob/main/sales/sdr/README.md)
for a worked example.
## Contributing a template
Templates ship in the separate
[`nanocoai/nanoclaw-templates`](https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw-templates)
repo, not this one. To add one: fork that repo, drop a folder at
`<category>/<template>/` with at least `context/instructions.md`, test it end to
end (copy it under `templates/` and run
`ncl groups create --template <category>/<template> --name Test`), confirm
no secrets are committed, and open a PR. The repo's README has the full anatomy,
category conventions, and checklist.

# Templates
Local agent-template library for this NanoClaw install. **This folder ships
empty.** Anything you drop here is a template you can stamp into an agent:
```bash
ncl groups create --template <relative-ref> --name "My Agent"
```
`<relative-ref>` is a path *relative to this folder* (e.g. `sales/sdr`). Refs
must stay inside this directory — absolute paths, `~`, and `../` escapes are
rejected. Override the location with `NANOCLAW_TEMPLATES_DIR=/another/local/path`
(a local path only — never a URL).
The setup wizard's **Template setup → NanoClaw template library** option clones
the public registry and copies your chosen template *into this folder*, after
which it stamps from the local copy. **Local templates** lists whatever is here.
## Anatomy of a template
Only `context/instructions.md` is required; it both supplies the agent's
standing brief and marks the folder as a template.
```
<template>/
├── context/
│ ├── instructions.md # REQUIRED: the agent's standing persona, prepended to its
│ │ # CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md every spawn
│ └── additional_context/ # optional: extra .md files
│ └── *.md
├── .mcp.json # optional: { "mcpServers": { ... } } — command + args, NO secrets
├── skills/<name>/ # optional: one folder per skill (SKILL.md + references/), copied whole
└── README.md # recommended: per-template docs
```
Notes:
- **Extra context is copied preserving its layout relative to `instructions.md`**
(`context/additional_context/faq.md``additional_context/faq.md` in the
agent's workspace). Nothing is referenced automatically — `instructions.md`
must point to each file (e.g. "Pricing rules live in
`additional_context/pricing.md`").
- **No provider, no model, no packages.** A template is instructions + MCP
servers + skills. The agent's runtime/provider is chosen separately
(`ncl groups config update --provider …` or during setup).
- **No secrets.** `.mcp.json` carries launch config only; credentials are
injected by the credentials proxy at request time. If an MCP server refuses
to boot without an env var, use a placeholder value — never a real key.
- Skills are copied into the agent's own per-group overlay, never shared.
