feat(setup): add Slack and iMessage channel flows (experimental)

Slack: interactive driver walks through app creation, validates the
bot token via auth.test, installs the adapter, and prints a
post-install checklist for the webhook URL + Event Subscriptions
config. No welcome DM since Slack needs a public URL before inbound
events work — the driver's own "finish in Slack" note replaces the
outro "check your DMs" banner.

iMessage: picks local (macOS) vs remote (Photon) mode. Local mode
opens the node binary's directory in Finder so the user can drag it
into Full Disk Access. Remote mode prompts for Photon URL + API key.
Asks for the operator's phone/email, then wires the first agent
including a welcome iMessage.

Both marked "(experimental)" in the askChannelChoice picker.

-name: add-compact
-description: Add /compact command for manual context compaction. Solves context rot in long sessions by forwarding the SDK's built-in /compact slash command. Main-group or trusted sender only.
----
-
-# Add /compact Command
-
-Adds a `/compact` session command that compacts conversation history to fight context rot in long-running sessions. Uses the Claude Agent SDK's built-in `/compact` slash command — no synthetic system prompts.
-
-**Session contract:** `/compact` keeps the same logical session alive. The SDK returns a new session ID after compaction (via the `init` system message), which the agent-runner forwards to the orchestrator as `newSessionId`. No destructive reset occurs — the agent retains summarized context.
-
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
-
-Check if `src/session-commands.ts` exists:
-
-```bash
-test -f src/session-commands.ts && echo "Already applied" || echo "Not applied"
-```
-
-If already applied, skip to Phase 3 (Verify).
-
-## Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
-
-Merge the skill branch:
-
-```bash
-git fetch upstream skill/compact
-git merge upstream/skill/compact
-```
-
-> **Note:** `upstream` is the remote pointing to `qwibitai/nanoclaw`. If using a different remote name, substitute accordingly.
-
-This adds:
-- `src/session-commands.ts` (extract and authorize session commands)
-- `src/session-commands.test.ts` (unit tests for command parsing and auth)
-- Session command interception in `src/index.ts` (both `processGroupMessages` and `startMessageLoop`)
-- Slash command handling in `container/agent-runner/src/index.ts`
-
-### Validate
-
-```bash
-npm test
-npm run build
-```
-
-### Rebuild container
-
-```bash
-./container/build.sh
-```
-
-### Restart service
-
-```bash
-launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw  # macOS
-# Linux: systemctl --user restart nanoclaw
-```
-
-## Phase 3: Verify
-
-### Integration Test
-
-1. Start NanoClaw in dev mode: `npm run dev`
-2. From the **main group** (self-chat), send exactly: `/compact`
-3. Verify:
-   - The agent acknowledges compaction (e.g., "Conversation compacted.")
-   - The session continues — send a follow-up message and verify the agent responds coherently
-   - A conversation archive is written to `groups/{folder}/conversations/` (by the PreCompact hook)
-   - Container logs show `Compact boundary observed` (confirms SDK actually compacted)
-   - If `compact_boundary` was NOT observed, the response says "compact_boundary was not observed"
-4. From a **non-main group** as a non-admin user, send: `@<assistant> /compact`
-5. Verify:
-   - The bot responds with "Session commands require admin access."
-   - No compaction occurs, no container is spawned for the command
-6. From a **non-main group** as the admin (device owner / `is_from_me`), send: `@<assistant> /compact`
-7. Verify:
-   - Compaction proceeds normally (same behavior as main group)
-8. While an **active container** is running for the main group, send `/compact`
-9. Verify:
-   - The active container is signaled to close (authorized senders only — untrusted senders cannot kill in-flight work)
-   - Compaction proceeds via a new container once the active one exits
-   - The command is not dropped (no cursor race)
-10. Send a normal message, then `/compact`, then another normal message in quick succession (same polling batch):
-11. Verify:
-    - Pre-compact messages are sent to the agent first (check container logs for two `runAgent` calls)
-    - Compaction proceeds after pre-compact messages are processed
-    - Messages **after** `/compact` in the batch are preserved (cursor advances to `/compact`'s timestamp only) and processed on the next poll cycle
-12. From a **non-main group** as a non-admin user, send `@<assistant> /compact`:
-13. Verify:
-    - Denial message is sent ("Session commands require admin access.")
-    - The `/compact` is consumed (cursor advanced) — it does NOT replay on future polls
-    - Other messages in the same batch are also consumed (cursor is a high-water mark — this is an accepted tradeoff for the narrow edge case of denied `/compact` + other messages in the same polling interval)
-    - No container is killed or interrupted
-14. From a **non-main group** (with `requiresTrigger` enabled) as a non-admin user, send bare `/compact` (no trigger prefix):
-15. Verify:
-    - No denial message is sent (trigger policy prevents untrusted bot responses)
-    - The `/compact` is consumed silently
-    - Note: in groups where `requiresTrigger` is `false`, a denial message IS sent because the sender is considered reachable
-16. After compaction, verify **no auto-compaction** behavior — only manual `/compact` triggers it
-
-### Validation on Fresh Clone
-
-```bash
-git clone <your-fork> /tmp/nanoclaw-test
-cd /tmp/nanoclaw-test
-claude  # then run /add-compact
-npm run build
-npm test
-./container/build.sh
-# Manual: send /compact from main group, verify compaction + continuation
-# Manual: send @<assistant> /compact from non-main as non-admin, verify denial
-# Manual: send @<assistant> /compact from non-main as admin, verify allowed
-# Manual: verify no auto-compaction behavior
-```
-
-## Security Constraints
-
-- **Main-group or trusted/admin sender only.** The main group is the user's private self-chat and is trusted (see `docs/SECURITY.md`). Non-main groups are untrusted — a careless or malicious user could wipe the agent's short-term memory. However, the device owner (`is_from_me`) is always trusted and can compact from any group.
-- **No auto-compaction.** This skill implements manual compaction only. Automatic threshold-based compaction is a separate concern and should be a separate skill.
-- **No config file.** NanoClaw's philosophy is customization through code changes, not configuration sprawl.
-- **Transcript archived before compaction.** The existing `PreCompact` hook in the agent-runner archives the full transcript to `conversations/` before the SDK compacts it.
-- **Session continues after compaction.** This is not a destructive reset. The conversation continues with summarized context.
-
-## What This Does NOT Do
-
-- No automatic compaction threshold (add separately if desired)
-- No `/clear` command (separate skill, separate semantics — `/clear` is a destructive reset)
-- No cross-group compaction (each group's session is isolated)
-- No changes to the container image, Dockerfile, or build script
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-- **"Session commands require admin access"**: Only the device owner (`is_from_me`) or main-group senders can use `/compact`. Other users are denied.
-- **No compact_boundary in logs**: The SDK may not emit this event in all versions. Check the agent-runner logs for the warning message. Compaction may still have succeeded.
-- **Pre-compact failure**: If messages before `/compact` fail to process, the error message says "Failed to process messages before /compact." The cursor advances past sent output to prevent duplicates; `/compact` remains pending for the next attempt.

+name: add-dashboard
+description: Add a monitoring dashboard to NanoClaw. Installs @nanoco/nanoclaw-dashboard and a pusher that sends periodic JSON snapshots.
+---
+
+# /add-dashboard — NanoClaw Dashboard
+
+Adds a local monitoring dashboard showing agent groups, sessions, channels, users, token usage, context windows, message activity, and real-time logs.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+NanoClaw (pusher)              Dashboard (npm package)
+┌──────────┐    POST JSON      ┌──────────────┐
+│ collects │ ────────────────→ │ /api/ingest  │
+│ DB data  │   every 60s       │ in-memory    │
+│ tails    │ ────────────────→ │ /api/logs/   │
+│ log file │   every 2s        │   push       │
+└──────────┘                   │ serves UI    │
+                               └──────────────┘
+```
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. Install the npm package
+
+```bash
+pnpm install @nanoco/nanoclaw-dashboard
+```
+
+### 2. Copy the pusher module
+
+Copy the resource file into src:
+
+```
+.claude/skills/add-dashboard/resources/dashboard-pusher.ts → src/dashboard-pusher.ts
+```
+
+### 3. Add exports to src/db/index.ts
+
+Add these two export blocks if not already present:
+
+```typescript
+// After the messaging-groups exports, add:
+export {
+  getMessagingGroupsByAgentGroup,
+} from './messaging-groups.js';
+
+// Before the credentials exports, add:
+export {
+  createDestination,
+  getDestinations,
+  getDestinationByName,
+  getDestinationByTarget,
+  hasDestination,
+  deleteDestination,
+} from './agent-destinations.js';
+```
+
+### 4. Wire into src/index.ts
+
+Add the `readEnvFile` import at the top if not already present:
+
+```typescript
+import { readEnvFile } from './env.js';
+```
+
+Add after step 7 (OneCLI approval handler), before the `log.info('NanoClaw running')` line:
+
+```typescript
+  // 8. Dashboard (optional)
+  const dashboardEnv = readEnvFile(['DASHBOARD_SECRET', 'DASHBOARD_PORT']);
+  const dashboardSecret = process.env.DASHBOARD_SECRET || dashboardEnv.DASHBOARD_SECRET;
+  const dashboardPort = parseInt(process.env.DASHBOARD_PORT || dashboardEnv.DASHBOARD_PORT || '3100', 10);
+  if (dashboardSecret) {
+    const { startDashboard } = await import('@nanoco/nanoclaw-dashboard');
+    const { startDashboardPusher } = await import('./dashboard-pusher.js');
+    startDashboard({ port: dashboardPort, secret: dashboardSecret });
+    startDashboardPusher({ port: dashboardPort, secret: dashboardSecret, intervalMs: 60000 });
+  } else {
+    log.info('Dashboard disabled (no DASHBOARD_SECRET)');
+  }
+```
+
+### 5. Add environment variables to .env
+
+```
+DASHBOARD_SECRET=<generate-a-random-secret>
+DASHBOARD_PORT=3100
+```
+
+Generate the secret: `node -e "console.log('nc-' + require('crypto').randomBytes(16).toString('hex'))"`
+
+### 6. Build and restart
+
+```bash
+pnpm run build
+systemctl --user restart nanoclaw   # Linux
+# or: launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw  # macOS
+```
+
+### 7. Verify
+
+```bash
+curl -s http://localhost:3100/api/status
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer <secret>" http://localhost:3100/api/overview
+```
+
+Open `http://localhost:3100/dashboard` in a browser.
+
+## Dashboard Pages
+
+| Page | Shows |
+|------|-------|
+| Overview | Stats, token usage + cache hit rate, context windows, activity chart |
+| Agent Groups | Sessions, wirings, destinations, members, admins |
+| Sessions | Status, container state, context window usage bars |
+| Channels | Live/offline status, messaging groups, sender policies |
+| Messages | Per-session inbound/outbound messages |
+| Users | Privilege hierarchy: owner > admin > member |
+| Logs | Real-time log streaming with level filter |
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **"No data yet"**: Wait 60s for first push, or check logs for push errors
+- **401 errors**: Verify `DASHBOARD_SECRET` matches in `.env`
+- **Port conflict**: Change `DASHBOARD_PORT` in `.env`
+- **No logs**: Check `logs/nanoclaw.log` exists
+
+## Removal
+
+```bash
+pnpm uninstall @nanoco/nanoclaw-dashboard
+rm src/dashboard-pusher.ts
+# Remove the dashboard block from src/index.ts
+# Remove DASHBOARD_SECRET and DASHBOARD_PORT from .env
+pnpm run build
+```

 # Add Discord Channel
 
-This skill adds Discord support to NanoClaw, then walks through interactive setup.
+Adds Discord bot support via the Chat SDK bridge.
 
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
+## Install
 
-### Check if already applied
+NanoClaw doesn't ship channels in trunk. This skill copies the Discord adapter in from the `channels` branch.
 
-Check if `src/channels/discord.ts` exists. If it does, skip to Phase 3 (Setup). The code changes are already in place.
+### Pre-flight (idempotent)
 
-### Ask the user
+Skip to **Credentials** if all of these are already in place:
 
-Use `AskUserQuestion` to collect configuration:
+- `src/channels/discord.ts` exists
+- `src/channels/index.ts` contains `import './discord.js';`
+- `@chat-adapter/discord` is listed in `package.json` dependencies
 
-AskUserQuestion: Do you have a Discord bot token, or do you need to create one?
+Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.
 
-If they have one, collect it now. If not, we'll create one in Phase 3.
-
-## Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
-
-### Ensure channel remote
+### 1. Fetch the channels branch
 
 ```bash
-git remote -v
+git fetch origin channels
 ```
 
-If `discord` is missing, add it:
+### 2. Copy the adapter
 
 ```bash
-git remote add discord https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw-discord.git
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/discord.ts > src/channels/discord.ts
 ```
 
-### Merge the skill branch
+### 3. Append the self-registration import
+
+Append to `src/channels/index.ts` (skip if the line is already present):
+
+```typescript
+import './discord.js';
+```
+
+### 4. Install the adapter package (pinned)
 
 ```bash
-git fetch discord main
-git merge discord/main || {
-  git checkout --theirs package-lock.json
-  git add package-lock.json
-  git merge --continue
-}
+pnpm install @chat-adapter/discord@4.26.0
 ```
 
-This merges in:
-- `src/channels/discord.ts` (DiscordChannel class with self-registration via `registerChannel`)
-- `src/channels/discord.test.ts` (unit tests with discord.js mock)
-- `import './discord.js'` appended to the channel barrel file `src/channels/index.ts`
-- `discord.js` npm dependency in `package.json`
-- `DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN` in `.env.example`
-
-If the merge reports conflicts, resolve them by reading the conflicted files and understanding the intent of both sides.
-
-### Validate code changes
+### 5. Build
 
 ```bash
-npm install
-npm run build
-npx vitest run src/channels/discord.test.ts
+pnpm run build
 ```
 
-All tests must pass (including the new Discord tests) and build must be clean before proceeding.
+## Credentials
 
-## Phase 3: Setup
+### Create Discord Bot
 
-### Create Discord Bot (if needed)
-
-If the user doesn't have a bot token, tell them:
-
-> I need you to create a Discord bot:
->
-> 1. Go to the [Discord Developer Portal](https://discord.com/developers/applications)
-> 2. Click **New Application** and give it a name (e.g., "Andy Assistant")
-> 3. Go to the **Bot** tab on the left sidebar
-> 4. Click **Reset Token** to generate a new bot token — copy it immediately (you can only see it once)
-> 5. Under **Privileged Gateway Intents**, enable:
->    - **Message Content Intent** (required to read message text)
->    - **Server Members Intent** (optional, for member display names)
-> 6. Go to **OAuth2** > **URL Generator**:
->    - Scopes: select `bot`
->    - Bot Permissions: select `Send Messages`, `Read Message History`, `View Channels`
->    - Copy the generated URL and open it in your browser to invite the bot to your server
-
-Wait for the user to provide the token.
+1. Go to the [Discord Developer Portal](https://discord.com/developers/applications)
+2. Click **New Application** and give it a name (e.g., "NanoClaw Assistant")
+3. From the **General Information** tab, copy the **Application ID** and **Public Key**
+4. Go to the **Bot** tab and click **Add Bot** if needed
+5. Copy the Bot Token (click **Reset Token** if you need a new one — you can only see it once)
+6. Under **Privileged Gateway Intents**, enable **Message Content Intent**
+7. Go to **OAuth2** > **URL Generator**:
+   - Scopes: select `bot`
+   - Bot Permissions: select `Send Messages`, `Read Message History`, `Add Reactions`, `Attach Files`, `Use Slash Commands`
+8. Copy the generated URL and open it in your browser to invite the bot to your server
 
 ### Configure environment
 
+All three values are required — the adapter will fail to start without `DISCORD_PUBLIC_KEY` and `DISCORD_APPLICATION_ID`.
+
 Add to `.env`:
 
 ```bash
-DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=<their-token>
+DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=your-bot-token
+DISCORD_APPLICATION_ID=your-application-id
+DISCORD_PUBLIC_KEY=your-public-key
 ```
 
-Channels auto-enable when their credentials are present — no extra configuration needed.
+Sync to container: `mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env`
 
-Sync to container environment:
+## Next Steps
 
-```bash
-mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env
-```
+If you're in the middle of `/setup`, return to the setup flow now.
 
-The container reads environment from `data/env/env`, not `.env` directly.
+Otherwise, run `/manage-channels` to wire this channel to an agent group.
 
-### Build and restart
+## Channel Info
 
-```bash
-npm run build
-launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw
-```
-
-## Phase 4: Registration
-
-### Get Channel ID
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> To get the channel ID for registration:
->
-> 1. In Discord, go to **User Settings** > **Advanced** > Enable **Developer Mode**
-> 2. Right-click the text channel you want the bot to respond in
-> 3. Click **Copy Channel ID**
->
-> The channel ID will be a long number like `1234567890123456`.
-
-Wait for the user to provide the channel ID (format: `dc:1234567890123456`).
-
-### Register the channel
-
-The channel ID, name, and folder name are needed. Use `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step register` with the appropriate flags.
-
-For a main channel (responds to all messages):
-
-```bash
-npx tsx setup/index.ts --step register -- --jid "dc:<channel-id>" --name "<server-name> #<channel-name>" --folder "discord_main" --trigger "@${ASSISTANT_NAME}" --channel discord --no-trigger-required --is-main
-```
-
-For additional channels (trigger-only):
-
-```bash
-npx tsx setup/index.ts --step register -- --jid "dc:<channel-id>" --name "<server-name> #<channel-name>" --folder "discord_<channel-name>" --trigger "@${ASSISTANT_NAME}" --channel discord
-```
-
-## Phase 5: Verify
-
-### Test the connection
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> Send a message in your registered Discord channel:
-> - For main channel: Any message works
-> - For non-main: @mention the bot in Discord
->
-> The bot should respond within a few seconds.
-
-### Check logs if needed
-
-```bash
-tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log
-```
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Bot not responding
-
-1. Check `DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN` is set in `.env` AND synced to `data/env/env`
-2. Check channel is registered: `sqlite3 store/messages.db "SELECT * FROM registered_groups WHERE jid LIKE 'dc:%'"`
-3. For non-main channels: message must include trigger pattern (@mention the bot)
-4. Service is running: `launchctl list | grep nanoclaw`
-5. Verify the bot has been invited to the server (check OAuth2 URL was used)
-
-### Bot only responds to @mentions
-
-This is the default behavior for non-main channels (`requiresTrigger: true`). To change:
-- Update the registered group's `requiresTrigger` to `false`
-- Or register the channel as the main channel
-
-### Message Content Intent not enabled
-
-If the bot connects but can't read messages, ensure:
-1. Go to [Discord Developer Portal](https://discord.com/developers/applications)
-2. Select your application > **Bot** tab
-3. Under **Privileged Gateway Intents**, enable **Message Content Intent**
-4. Restart NanoClaw
-
-### Getting Channel ID
-
-If you can't copy the channel ID:
-- Ensure **Developer Mode** is enabled: User Settings > Advanced > Developer Mode
-- Right-click the channel name in the server sidebar > Copy Channel ID
-
-## After Setup
-
-The Discord bot supports:
-- Text messages in registered channels
-- Attachment descriptions (images, videos, files shown as placeholders)
-- Reply context (shows who the user is replying to)
-- @mention translation (Discord `<@botId>` → NanoClaw trigger format)
-- Message splitting for responses over 2000 characters
-- Typing indicators while the agent processes
+- **type**: `discord`
+- **terminology**: Discord has "servers" (also called "guilds") containing "channels." Text channels start with #. The bot can also receive direct messages.
+- **how-to-find-id**: Enable Developer Mode in Discord (Settings > App Settings > Advanced > Developer Mode). Then right-click a server and select "Copy Server ID" for the guild ID, and right-click the text channel and select "Copy Channel ID." The platform ID format used in registration is `discord:{guildId}:{channelId}` — both IDs are required.
+- **supports-threads**: yes
+- **typical-use**: Interactive chat — server channels or direct messages
+- **default-isolation**: Same agent group for your personal server. Separate agent group for servers with different communities or where different members have different information boundaries.

-### Merge the skill branch
+No npm package to install — the adapter uses only Node builtins (`http`).
+
+## Enable
+
+The adapter is gated by `EMACS_ENABLED` so the HTTP port isn't opened on hosts that aren't running Emacs. Add to `.env`:
 
 ```bash
-git fetch upstream skill/emacs
-git merge upstream/skill/emacs
+EMACS_ENABLED=true
+EMACS_CHANNEL_PORT=8766       # optional — change only if 8766 is taken
+EMACS_AUTH_TOKEN=             # optional — set to a random string to lock the endpoint
+EMACS_PLATFORM_ID=default     # optional — only change if you want a non-default chat id

-If there are merge conflicts on `package-lock.json`, resolve them by accepting the incoming
-version and continuing:
+Generate an auth token (recommended even on single-user machines — prevents other local processes from poking the endpoint):

-git checkout --theirs package-lock.json
-git add package-lock.json
-git merge --continue
+node -e "console.log(require('crypto').randomBytes(16).toString('hex'))"
 ```
 
-For any other conflict, read the conflicted file and reconcile both sides manually.
+## Wire the channel
 
-This adds:
-- `src/channels/emacs.ts` — `EmacsBridgeChannel` HTTP server (port 8766)
-- `src/channels/emacs.test.ts` — unit tests
-- `emacs/nanoclaw.el` — Emacs Lisp package (`nanoclaw-chat`, `nanoclaw-org-send`)
-- `import './emacs.js'` appended to `src/channels/index.ts`
+Emacs is a single-user, single-chat channel. One host = one messaging group with `platform_id = "default"`.
 
-If the merge reports conflicts, resolve them by reading the conflicted files and understanding the intent of both sides.
+### If this is your first agent group
 
-### Validate code changes
+Run `/init-first-agent` — pick **Emacs** as the channel, use any short handle as the "user id" (e.g. your OS username), and the skill will create the agent group, wire the channel, and write a welcome message that the agent delivers back to your Emacs buffer.
+
+### Otherwise — wire to an existing agent group
+
+Run the `register` step directly. The `EMACS_PLATFORM_ID` (default `default`) becomes the messaging group's platform id:
 
 ```bash
-npm run build
-npx vitest run src/channels/emacs.test.ts
+pnpm exec tsx setup/index.ts --step register -- \
+  --platform-id "default" --name "Emacs" \
+  --folder "<existing-folder>" --channel "emacs" \
+  --session-mode "agent-shared" \
+  --assistant-name "<existing-assistant-name>"
 ```
 
-Build must be clean and tests must pass before proceeding.
+`agent-shared` puts Emacs messages in the same session as any other channel wired to the same agent group — so a conversation you started in Telegram continues in Emacs. Use `shared` to keep an independent Emacs thread with the same workspace, or a new `--folder` for a dedicated Emacs-only agent.
 
-## Phase 3: Setup
+## Configure Emacs
 
-### Configure environment (optional)
-
-The channel works out of the box with defaults. Add to `.env` only if you need non-defaults:
-
-```bash
-EMACS_CHANNEL_PORT=8766     # default — change if 8766 is already in use
-EMACS_AUTH_TOKEN=<random>   # optional — locks the endpoint to Emacs only
-```
-
-If you change or add values, sync to the container environment:
-
-```bash
-mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env
-```
-
-### Configure Emacs
-
-The `nanoclaw.el` package requires only Emacs 27.1+ built-in libraries (`url`, `json`, `org`) — no package manager setup needed.
+`nanoclaw.el` needs only Emacs 27.1+ builtins (`url`, `json`, `org`) — no package manager.

+## Channel Info
+
+- **type**: `emacs`
+- **terminology**: Single local buffer. There are no "groups" or separate chats — one host = one chat, addressed by a `platform_id` string (default `default`).
+- **how-to-find-id**: The platform id is whatever you set in `EMACS_PLATFORM_ID` (default `default`). User handles are arbitrary; your OS username or first name is fine (e.g. `emacs:<username>`).
+- **supports-threads**: no
+- **typical-use**: Single developer talking to the assistant from within Emacs, alongside whatever other channel they use (Slack, Telegram, Discord).
+- **default-isolation**: Same agent group as the primary DM, with `session-mode = agent-shared` so a conversation started elsewhere continues in Emacs. Pick a separate folder only if you specifically want an Emacs-only persona.
+
+### Features
+
+- Interactive chat buffer (`nanoclaw-chat`) with markdown → org-mode rendering
+- Org integration (`nanoclaw-org-send`) — sends the current subtree or region; reply lands as a child heading
+- Optional bearer-token auth for the local endpoint
+- Single-user: the adapter exposes exactly one messaging group per host
+
+Not applicable (design): multi-user channels, threads, cold DM initiation, typing indicators, attachments.

+# Add GitHub Channel
+
+Adds GitHub support via the Chat SDK bridge. The agent participates in PR and issue comment threads.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+You need a **dedicated GitHub bot account** (not your personal account). The adapter uses this account to post replies and filters out its own messages to avoid loops. Create a free GitHub account for your bot (e.g. `my-org-bot`), then invite it as a collaborator with write access to the repos you want monitored.

+
+1. Go to [Settings > Developer Settings > Personal Access Tokens](https://github.com/settings/tokens)
+2. Create a **Fine-grained token** with:
+   - Repository access: select the repos you want the bot to monitor
+   - Permissions: **Pull requests** (Read & Write), **Issues** (Read & Write)
+3. Copy the token
+
+### 2. Set up a webhook on each repo
+
+On each repo (logged in as the repo owner/admin):
+
+1. Go to **Settings** > **Webhooks** > **Add webhook**
+2. Payload URL: `https://your-domain/webhook/github` (the shared webhook server, default port 3000)
+3. Content type: `application/json`
+4. Secret: generate a random string (e.g. `openssl rand -hex 20`)

+
+Add to `.env`:
+
+```bash
+GITHUB_TOKEN=github_pat_...
+GITHUB_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your-webhook-secret
+GITHUB_BOT_USERNAME=your-bot-username
+```
+
+`GITHUB_BOT_USERNAME` must match the bot account's GitHub username exactly. This is used for @-mention detection — the agent responds when someone writes `@your-bot-username` in a PR or issue comment.
+
+Sync to container: `mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env`
+
+## Wiring
+
+Ask the user: **Is this a private or public repo?**
+
+- **Private repo** — use `unknown_sender_policy: 'public'`. Only collaborators can comment anyway, so it's safe to let all comments through.
+- **Public repo** — use `unknown_sender_policy: 'strict'`. Only registered members can trigger the agent, preventing strangers from consuming agent resources. Add trusted collaborators as members (see below).
+
+Run `/manage-channels` to wire the GitHub channel to an agent group, or insert manually:
+
+```sql
+-- Create messaging group (one per repo)
+INSERT INTO messaging_groups (id, channel_type, platform_id, name, is_group, unknown_sender_policy, created_at)
+VALUES ('mg-github-myrepo', 'github', 'github:owner/repo', 'owner/repo', 1, '<policy>', datetime('now'));
+
+-- Wire to agent group
+INSERT INTO messaging_group_agents (id, messaging_group_id, agent_group_id, trigger_rules, response_scope, session_mode, priority, created_at)
+VALUES ('mga-github-myrepo', 'mg-github-myrepo', '<your-agent-group-id>', '', 'all', 'per-thread', 10, datetime('now'));
+```
+
+Replace `<policy>` with `public` or `strict` based on the user's choice above.
+
+### Adding members (for strict mode)
+
+When using `strict`, add each GitHub user who should be able to trigger the agent:
+
+```sql
+-- Add user (kind = 'github', id = 'github:<numeric-user-id>')
+INSERT OR IGNORE INTO users (id, kind, display_name, created_at)
+VALUES ('github:<user-id>', 'github', '<username>', datetime('now'));
+
+-- Grant membership to the agent group
+INSERT OR IGNORE INTO agent_group_members (user_id, agent_group_id)
+VALUES ('github:<user-id>', '<agent-group-id>');
+```
+
+To find a GitHub user's numeric ID: `gh api users/<username> --jq .id`
+
+Use `per-thread` session mode so each PR/issue gets its own agent session.
+
+## Next Steps
+
+If you're in the middle of `/setup`, return to the setup flow now.
+
+Otherwise, restart the service (`systemctl --user restart nanoclaw` or `launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw`) to pick up the new channel.
+
+## Channel Info
+
+- **type**: `github`
+- **terminology**: GitHub has "repositories" containing "pull requests" and "issues." Each PR or issue comment thread is a separate conversation.
+- **how-to-find-id**: The platform ID is `github:owner/repo` (e.g. `github:acme/backend`). Each PR/issue becomes its own thread automatically.
+- **supports-threads**: yes (PR and issue comment threads are native conversations)
+- **typical-use**: Webhook-driven — the agent receives PR and issue comment events and responds in comment threads when @-mentioned. After the first mention, the thread is subscribed and the agent responds to all follow-up comments.
+- **default-isolation**: Use `per-thread` session mode. Each PR or issue gets its own isolated agent session. Typically wire to a dedicated agent group if the repo contains sensitive code.

-
-# Add Gmail Integration
-
-This skill adds Gmail support to NanoClaw — either as a tool (read, send, search, draft) or as a full channel that polls the inbox.
-
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
-
-### Check if already applied
-
-Check if `src/channels/gmail.ts` exists. If it does, skip to Phase 3 (Setup). The code changes are already in place.
-
-### Ask the user
-
-Use `AskUserQuestion`:
-
-AskUserQuestion: Should incoming emails be able to trigger the agent?
-
-- **Yes** — Full channel mode: the agent listens on Gmail and responds to incoming emails automatically
-- **No** — Tool-only: the agent gets full Gmail tools (read, send, search, draft) but won't monitor the inbox. No channel code is added.
-
-## Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
-
-### Ensure channel remote
-
-```bash
-git remote -v
-```
-
-If `gmail` is missing, add it:
-
-```bash
-git remote add gmail https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw-gmail.git
-```
-
-### Merge the skill branch
-
-```bash
-git fetch gmail main
-git merge gmail/main || {
-  git checkout --theirs package-lock.json
-  git add package-lock.json
-  git merge --continue
-}
-```
-
-This merges in:
-- `src/channels/gmail.ts` (GmailChannel class with self-registration via `registerChannel`)
-- `src/channels/gmail.test.ts` (unit tests)
-- `import './gmail.js'` appended to the channel barrel file `src/channels/index.ts`
-- Gmail credentials mount (`~/.gmail-mcp`) in `src/container-runner.ts`
-- Gmail MCP server (`@gongrzhe/server-gmail-autoauth-mcp`) and `mcp__gmail__*` allowed tool in `container/agent-runner/src/index.ts`
-- `googleapis` npm dependency in `package.json`
-
-If the merge reports conflicts, resolve them by reading the conflicted files and understanding the intent of both sides.

-### Add email handling instructions (Channel mode only)

-If the user chose channel mode, append the following to `groups/main/CLAUDE.md` (before the formatting section):
-
-```markdown
-## Email Notifications
-
-When you receive an email notification (messages starting with `[Email from ...`), inform the user about it but do NOT reply to the email unless specifically asked. You have Gmail tools available — use them only when the user explicitly asks you to reply, forward, or take action on an email.
-```
-
-### Validate code changes
-
-```bash
-npm install
-npm run build
-npx vitest run src/channels/gmail.test.ts
-```
-
-All tests must pass (including the new Gmail tests) and build must be clean before proceeding.
-
-## Phase 3: Setup
-
-### Check existing Gmail credentials
-
-```bash
-ls -la ~/.gmail-mcp/ 2>/dev/null || echo "No Gmail config found"
-```
-
-If `credentials.json` already exists, skip to "Build and restart" below.
-
-### GCP Project Setup
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> I need you to set up Google Cloud OAuth credentials:
->
-> 1. Open https://console.cloud.google.com — create a new project or select existing
-> 2. Go to **APIs & Services > Library**, search "Gmail API", click **Enable**
-> 3. Go to **APIs & Services > Credentials**, click **+ CREATE CREDENTIALS > OAuth client ID**
->    - If prompted for consent screen: choose "External", fill in app name and email, save
->    - Application type: **Desktop app**, name: anything (e.g., "NanoClaw Gmail")
-> 4. Click **DOWNLOAD JSON** and save as `gcp-oauth.keys.json`
->
-> Where did you save the file? (Give me the full path, or paste the file contents here)
-
-If user provides a path, copy it:
-
-```bash
-mkdir -p ~/.gmail-mcp
-cp "/path/user/provided/gcp-oauth.keys.json" ~/.gmail-mcp/gcp-oauth.keys.json
-```
-
-If user pastes JSON content, write it to `~/.gmail-mcp/gcp-oauth.keys.json`.
-
-### OAuth Authorization
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> I'm going to run Gmail authorization. A browser window will open — sign in and grant access. If you see an "app isn't verified" warning, click "Advanced" then "Go to [app name] (unsafe)" — this is normal for personal OAuth apps.
-
-Run the authorization:
-
-```bash
-npx -y @gongrzhe/server-gmail-autoauth-mcp auth
-```
-
-If that fails (some versions don't have an auth subcommand), try `timeout 60 npx -y @gongrzhe/server-gmail-autoauth-mcp || true`. Verify with `ls ~/.gmail-mcp/credentials.json`.
-
-### Build and restart
-
-Clear stale per-group agent-runner copies (they only get re-created if missing, so existing copies won't pick up the new Gmail server):
-
-```bash
-rm -r data/sessions/*/agent-runner-src 2>/dev/null || true
-```
-
-Rebuild the container (agent-runner changed):
-
-```bash
-cd container && ./build.sh
-```
-
-Then compile and restart:
-
-```bash
-npm run build
-launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw  # macOS
-# Linux: systemctl --user restart nanoclaw
-```
-
-## Phase 4: Verify
-
-### Test tool access (both modes)
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> Gmail is connected! Send this in your main channel:
->
-> `@Andy check my recent emails` or `@Andy list my Gmail labels`
-
-### Test channel mode (Channel mode only)
-
-Tell the user to send themselves a test email. The agent should pick it up within a minute. Monitor: `tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log | grep -iE "(gmail|email)"`.
-
-Once verified, offer filter customization via `AskUserQuestion` — by default, only emails in the Primary inbox trigger the agent (Promotions, Social, Updates, and Forums are excluded). The user can keep this default or narrow further by sender, label, or keywords. No code changes needed for filters.
-
-### Check logs if needed
-
-```bash
-tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log
-```
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Gmail connection not responding
-
-Test directly:
-
-```bash
-npx -y @gongrzhe/server-gmail-autoauth-mcp
-```
-
-### OAuth token expired
-
-Re-authorize:
-
-```bash
-rm ~/.gmail-mcp/credentials.json
-npx -y @gongrzhe/server-gmail-autoauth-mcp
-```
-
-### Container can't access Gmail
-
-- Verify `~/.gmail-mcp` is mounted: check `src/container-runner.ts` for the `.gmail-mcp` mount
-- Check container logs: `cat groups/main/logs/container-*.log | tail -50`
-
-### Emails not being detected (Channel mode only)
-
-- By default, the channel polls unread Primary inbox emails (`is:unread category:primary`)
-- Check logs for Gmail polling errors
-
-## Removal
-
-### Tool-only mode
-
-1. Remove `~/.gmail-mcp` mount from `src/container-runner.ts`
-2. Remove `gmail` MCP server and `mcp__gmail__*` from `container/agent-runner/src/index.ts`
-3. Rebuild and restart
-4. Clear stale agent-runner copies: `rm -r data/sessions/*/agent-runner-src 2>/dev/null || true`
-5. Rebuild: `cd container && ./build.sh && cd .. && npm run build && launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw` (macOS) or `systemctl --user restart nanoclaw` (Linux)
-
-### Channel mode
-
-1. Delete `src/channels/gmail.ts` and `src/channels/gmail.test.ts`
-2. Remove `import './gmail.js'` from `src/channels/index.ts`
-3. Remove `~/.gmail-mcp` mount from `src/container-runner.ts`
-4. Remove `gmail` MCP server and `mcp__gmail__*` from `container/agent-runner/src/index.ts`
-5. Uninstall: `npm uninstall googleapis`
-6. Rebuild and restart
-7. Clear stale agent-runner copies: `rm -r data/sessions/*/agent-runner-src 2>/dev/null || true`
-8. Rebuild: `cd container && ./build.sh && cd .. && npm run build && launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw` (macOS) or `systemctl --user restart nanoclaw` (Linux)

-description: Add image vision to NanoClaw agents. Resizes and processes WhatsApp image attachments, then sends them to Claude as multimodal content blocks.
----
-
-# Image Vision Skill
-
-Adds the ability for NanoClaw agents to see and understand images sent via WhatsApp. Images are downloaded, resized with sharp, saved to the group workspace, and passed to the agent as base64-encoded multimodal content blocks.
-
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
-
-1. Check if `src/image.ts` exists — skip to Phase 3 if already applied
-2. Confirm `sharp` is installable (native bindings require build tools)
-
-**Prerequisite:** WhatsApp must be installed first (`skill/whatsapp` merged). This skill modifies WhatsApp channel files.
-
-## Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
-
-### Ensure WhatsApp fork remote
-
-```bash
-git remote -v
-```
-
-If `whatsapp` is missing, add it:
-
-```bash
-git remote add whatsapp https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw-whatsapp.git
-```
-
-### Merge the skill branch
-
-```bash
-git fetch whatsapp skill/image-vision
-git merge whatsapp/skill/image-vision || {
-  git checkout --theirs package-lock.json
-  git add package-lock.json
-  git merge --continue
-}
-```
-
-This merges in:
-- `src/image.ts` (image download, resize via sharp, base64 encoding)
-- `src/image.test.ts` (8 unit tests)
-- Image attachment handling in `src/channels/whatsapp.ts`
-- Image passing to agent in `src/index.ts` and `src/container-runner.ts`
-- Image content block support in `container/agent-runner/src/index.ts`
-- `sharp` npm dependency in `package.json`
-
-If the merge reports conflicts, resolve them by reading the conflicted files and understanding the intent of both sides.
-
-### Validate code changes
-
-```bash
-npm install
-npm run build
-npx vitest run src/image.test.ts
-```
-
-All tests must pass and build must be clean before proceeding.
-
-## Phase 3: Configure
-
-1. Rebuild the container (agent-runner changes need a rebuild):
-   ```bash
-   ./container/build.sh
-   ```
-
-2. Sync agent-runner source to group caches:
-   ```bash
-   for dir in data/sessions/*/agent-runner-src/; do
-     cp container/agent-runner/src/*.ts "$dir"
-   done
-   ```
-
-3. Restart the service:
-   ```bash
-   launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw
-   ```
-
-## Phase 4: Verify
-
-1. Send an image in a registered WhatsApp group
-2. Check the agent responds with understanding of the image content
-3. Check logs for "Processed image attachment":
-   ```bash
-   tail -50 groups/*/logs/container-*.log
-   ```
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-- **"Image - download failed"**: Check WhatsApp connection stability. The download may timeout on slow connections.
-- **"Image - processing failed"**: Sharp may not be installed correctly. Run `npm ls sharp` to verify.
-- **Agent doesn't mention image content**: Check container logs for "Loaded image" messages. If missing, ensure agent-runner source was synced to group caches.

+
+# Add iMessage Channel
+
+Adds iMessage support via the Chat SDK bridge. Two modes: local (macOS with Full Disk Access) or remote (Photon API).
+
+## Install
+
+NanoClaw doesn't ship channels in trunk. This skill copies the iMessage adapter in from the `channels` branch.
+
+### Pre-flight (idempotent)
+
+Skip to **Credentials** if all of these are already in place:
+
+- `src/channels/imessage.ts` exists
+- `src/channels/index.ts` contains `import './imessage.js';`
+- `chat-adapter-imessage` is listed in `package.json` dependencies
+
+Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.
+
+### 1. Fetch the channels branch
+
+```bash
+git fetch origin channels
+```
+
+### 2. Copy the adapter
+
+```bash
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/imessage.ts > src/channels/imessage.ts
+```
+
+### 3. Append the self-registration import
+
+Append to `src/channels/index.ts` (skip if the line is already present):
+
+```typescript
+import './imessage.js';
+```
+
+### 4. Install the adapter package (pinned)
+
+```bash
+pnpm install chat-adapter-imessage@0.1.1
+```
+
+### 5. Build
+
+```bash
+pnpm run build
+```
+
+## Credentials
+
+### Local Mode (macOS)
+
+Requirements: macOS with Full Disk Access granted to the Node.js binary.
+
+The Node binary path is buried deep (e.g. `~/.nvm/versions/node/v22.x.x/bin/node`). To make it easy, open the folder in Finder so the user can drag the file into System Settings:
+
+```bash
+open "$(dirname "$(which node)")"
+```
+
+Then tell the user:
+
+1. Open **System Settings** > **Privacy & Security** > **Full Disk Access**
+2. Click **+**, then drag the `node` file from the Finder window that just opened
+3. Toggle it on
+
+Stop and wait for the user to confirm before continuing.
+
+### Remote Mode (Photon API)
+
+1. Set up a [Photon](https://photon.im) account
+2. Get your server URL and API key
+
+### Configure environment
+
+**Local mode** -- add to `.env`:
+
+```bash
+IMESSAGE_ENABLED=true
+IMESSAGE_LOCAL=true
+```
+
+**Remote mode** -- add to `.env`:
+
+```bash
+IMESSAGE_LOCAL=false
+IMESSAGE_SERVER_URL=https://your-photon-server.com
+IMESSAGE_API_KEY=your-api-key
+```
+
+Sync to container: `mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env`
+
+## Next Steps
+
+If you're in the middle of `/setup`, return to the setup flow now.
+
+Otherwise, run `/manage-channels` to wire this channel to an agent group.
+
+## Channel Info
+
+- **type**: `imessage`
+- **terminology**: iMessage has "conversations." Each conversation is with a contact identified by phone number or email address. Group chats are also supported.
+- **how-to-find-id**: The platform ID is the contact's phone number (e.g. `+15551234567`) or email address. For group chats, the ID is assigned by iMessage internally.
+- **supports-threads**: no
+- **typical-use**: Interactive 1:1 chat — personal messaging
+- **default-isolation**: Same agent group if you're the only person messaging the bot across iMessage and other channels. Separate agent group if different contacts should have information isolation.

+---
+
+# Add Karpathy LLM Wiki
+
+Set up a persistent wiki knowledge base on NanoClaw, based on Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern.
+
+## Step 1: Read the pattern
+
+Read `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/llm-wiki.md` — this is the full LLM Wiki idea as written by Karpathy. Understand it thoroughly before proceeding. Summarize the core idea to the user briefly, then discuss what they want to build.
+
+## Step 2: Choose a group
+
+AskUserQuestion: "Which group should have the wiki?"
+
+1. **Main group** — add to your existing main chat
+2. **Dedicated group** — create a new group just for the wiki
+3. **Other** — pick an existing group
+
+If dedicated: ask which channel and chat, then register with `pnpm exec tsx setup/index.ts --step register`.
+
+## Step 3: Design collaboratively
+
+Discuss with the user based on the pattern:
+- What's the wiki's domain or topic?
+- What kinds of sources will they add? (URLs, PDFs, images, voice notes, books, transcripts)
+- Do they want the full three-layer architecture or a lighter version?
+- Any specific conventions they care about? (The pattern intentionally leaves this open.)
+
+Based on this discussion, create three things:
+
+### 3a. Directory structure
+
+Create `wiki/` and `sources/` directories in the group folder. Create initial `index.md` and `log.md` per the pattern's Indexing and Logging section. Adapt to the user's domain.
+
+### 3b. Container skill
+
+Create a `container/skills/wiki/SKILL.md` tailored to this user's wiki. This is the schema layer from the pattern — it tells the agent how to maintain the wiki. Base it on the pattern's Operations section (ingest, query, lint) and the conventions you agreed on with the user. Don't over-prescribe — the pattern says "your LLM figures out the rest."
+
+### 3c. Group CLAUDE.md
+
+Edit the group's CLAUDE.md to add a wiki section. This is critical — it's what turns the agent into a wiki maintainer. It should:
+
+- Explain the wiki system concisely: what it is, the three layers (sources, wiki, schema), the three operations (ingest, query, lint)
+- Index the key files and folders (`wiki/`, `sources/`, `wiki/index.md`, `wiki/log.md`)
+- Point to the container skill for detailed workflow
+- **Ingest discipline:** Be very explicit that when the user provides multiple files or points at a folder with many files, the agent MUST process them one at a time. For each file: read it, discuss takeaways, create/update all wiki pages (summary, entities, concepts, cross-references, index, log), and completely finish with that file before moving to the next. Never batch-read all files and then process them together — this produces shallow, generic pages instead of the deep integration the pattern requires.
+
+## Step 4: Source handling capabilities
+
+Based on the source types the user plans to ingest (discussed in Step 3), check whether the agent can already handle those formats — some are supported natively, others need a skill (e.g. `/add-image-vision`, `/add-pdf-reader`, `/add-voice-transcription`). If a needed capability isn't installed, check if there's an available skill for it and help the user get it set up.
+
+### URL handling note
+
+claude has built-in `WebFetch`, but it returns a summary, not the full document. For wiki ingestion of a URL where the full text matters, the container skill and CLAUDE.md should instruct claude to use bash commands to download full files instead. For example:
+
+```bash
+curl -sLo sources/filename.pdf "<url>"
+```
+
+If the document is a webpage, then claude can use fetch or `agent-browser` to open the page and extract full text if available. The container skill and CLAUDE.md should note this so claude gets full content for sources rather than summaries.
+
+
+## Step 5: Optional lint schedule
+
+AskUserQuestion: "Want periodic wiki health checks?"
+
+1. **Weekly**
+2. **Monthly**
+3. **Skip** — lint manually
+
+If yes, create a NanoClaw scheduled task that runs in the wiki group. This is NOT a Claude Code cron job — it's a NanoClaw group task that runs in the agent container. Insert it into the SQLite database:
+
+```bash
+pnpm exec tsx -e "
+const Database = require('better-sqlite3');
+const { CronExpressionParser } = require('cron-parser');
+const db = new Database('store/messages.db');
+const interval = CronExpressionParser.parse('<cron-expr>', { tz: process.env.TZ || 'UTC' });
+const nextRun = interval.next().toISOString();
+db.prepare('INSERT INTO scheduled_tasks (id, group_folder, chat_jid, prompt, schedule_type, schedule_value, context_mode, next_run, status, created_at) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)').run(
+  'wiki-lint',
+  '<group_folder>',
+  '<chat_jid>',
+  'Run a wiki lint pass per the wiki container skill. Check for contradictions, orphan pages, stale content, missing cross-references, and gaps. Report findings and offer to fix issues.',
+  'cron',
+  '<cron-expr>',
+  'group',
+  nextRun,
+  'active',
+  new Date().toISOString()
+);
+db.close();
+"
+```
+
+Use the group's `folder` and `chat_jid` from the registered groups table. Cron expressions: `0 10 * * 0` (weekly Sunday 10am) or `0 10 1 * *` (monthly 1st at 10am).
+
+## Step 6: Build and restart
+
+```bash
+pnpm run build
+./container/build.sh
+launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw  # macOS
+# Linux: systemctl --user restart nanoclaw
+```

+Tell the user to test by sending a source to the wiki group.

+# LLM Wiki
+
+> Source: [karpathy/llm-wiki.md](https://gist.github.com/karpathy/442a6bf555914893e9891c11519de94f)
+
+A pattern for building personal knowledge bases using LLMs.
+
+This is an idea file, designed to be copied to your own LLM Agent (e.g. OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode / Pi, etc.). Its goal is to communicate the high-level idea, with your agent building out specifics through collaboration with you.
+
+## The Core Idea
+
+Most interactions with LLMs and documents follow RAG patterns: upload files, retrieve relevant chunks at query time, generate answers. The knowledge is re-derived on each question with no accumulation.
+
+The concept here differs fundamentally. Rather than just retrieving from raw documents, the LLM incrementally builds and maintains a persistent wiki — a structured, interlinked markdown collection sitting between you and raw sources. When adding new material, the LLM reads it, extracts key information, and integrates it into existing wiki pages—updating entities, revising summaries, flagging contradictions, strengthening synthesis. Knowledge compiles once and stays current rather than re-deriving on every query.
+
+The wiki becomes a persistent, compounding artifact. Cross-references already exist. Contradictions are flagged. Synthesis reflects everything read. The wiki enriches with every source added and question asked.
+
+You source material and ask questions; the LLM maintains everything—summarizing, cross-referencing, filing, and organizing. The LLM acts as programmer; Obsidian serves as IDE; the wiki functions as codebase.
+
+**Applications include:**
+- Personal: tracking goals, health, self-improvement
+- Research: deep dives over weeks/months
+- Reading: building companion wikis while progressing through books
+- Business/teams: internal wikis fed by Slack, transcripts, documents
+- Analysis: competitive research, due diligence, trip planning, hobby deep-dives
+
+## Architecture
+
+Three layers comprise the system:
+
+**Raw sources** — immutable curated documents (articles, papers, images, data). The LLM reads but never modifies these.
+
+**The wiki** — LLM-generated markdown directories containing summaries, entity pages, concept pages, comparisons, syntheses. The LLM owns this entirely, creating and updating pages while maintaining cross-references and consistency.
+
+**The schema** — configuration document (e.g., CLAUDE.md) explaining wiki structure, conventions, and workflows for ingestion, querying, and maintenance. This key file transforms the LLM into disciplined wiki maintainer rather than generic chatbot.
+
+## Operations
+
+**Ingest:** Drop new sources into the raw collection; the LLM processes them. The agent reads sources, discusses takeaways, writes summaries, updates indexes, refreshes entity and concept pages, logs entries. Single sources might touch 10-15 wiki pages. Prefer ingesting individually while staying involved, though batch ingestion with less oversight is possible.
+
+**Query:** Ask questions against the wiki. The LLM searches relevant pages, synthesizes answers with citations. Answers take various forms—markdown pages, comparison tables, slide decks, charts, canvas. Good answers can be filed back into the wiki as new pages—explorations compound in the knowledge base rather than disappearing into chat history.
+
+**Lint:** Periodically health-check the wiki. Look for contradictions, stale claims superseded by newer sources, orphan pages lacking inbound links, important concepts lacking dedicated pages, missing cross-references, data gaps. The LLM suggests investigations and sources to pursue, keeping the wiki healthy as it grows.
+
+## Indexing and Logging
+
+Two special files help navigate the growing wiki:
+
+**index.md** — content-oriented catalog of everything (each page with link, one-line summary, optional metadata like dates or source counts), organized by category. The LLM updates it on every ingest. When answering queries, read the index first to locate relevant pages before drilling deeper. This approach works surprisingly well at moderate scale (~100 sources, ~hundreds of pages) while avoiding embedding-based RAG infrastructure needs.
+
+**log.md** — append-only chronological record of what happened and when (ingests, queries, lint passes). Each entry beginning with consistent prefix (e.g., `## [2026-04-02] ingest | Article Title`) becomes parseable with simple tools—`grep "^## \[" log.md | tail -5` yields last 5 entries. The log shows wiki evolution timeline and helps the LLM understand recent activity.
+
+## Optional: CLI Tools
+
+At scale, small tools help the LLM operate more efficiently. Search engine over wiki pages is most obvious—at small scale the index suffices, but as the wiki grows, proper search becomes necessary. qmd (https://github.com/tobi/qmd) offers local search with hybrid BM25/vector search and LLM re-ranking, entirely on-device. It includes both CLI (so LLMs can shell out) and MCP server (native tool integration). Build simpler custom search scripts as needs arise.
+
+## Tips and Tricks
+
+- **Obsidian Web Clipper** converts web articles to markdown for quick source collection
+- **Download images locally:** Set attachment folder in Obsidian Settings, bind download hotkey. All images store locally; LLM views and references directly instead of relying on potentially broken URLs
+- **Obsidian's graph view** visualizes wiki connectivity—what connects to what, hub pages, orphans
+- **Marp** provides markdown-based slide deck format with Obsidian plugin integration
+- **Dataview** plugin queries page frontmatter, generating dynamic tables/lists when LLM adds YAML frontmatter
+- The wiki is simply a git-backed markdown directory—version history, branching, collaboration included
+
+## Why This Works
+
+Knowledge base maintenance's tedious part is bookkeeping, not reading/thinking: updating cross-references, keeping summaries current, noting data contradictions, maintaining consistency across pages. Humans abandon wikis as maintenance burden outpaces value. LLMs don't bore, don't forget updates, can touch 15 files in one pass. Wiki maintenance becomes nearly free.
+
+Humans curate sources, direct analysis, ask good questions, think about meaning. LLMs handle everything else.
+
+This relates in spirit to Vannevar Bush's 1945 Memex—personal curated knowledge stores with associative document trails. Bush's vision resembled this more than what the web became: private, actively curated, with connections between documents as valuable as documents themselves. Bush couldn't solve maintenance; LLMs handle that.
+
+## Note
+
+This document intentionally remains abstract, describing the idea rather than specific implementation. Directory structure, schema conventions, page formats, tooling—all depend on domain, preferences, and LLM choice. Everything is optional and modular. Pick what's useful; ignore what isn't. Your sources might be text-only (no image handling needed). Your wiki might stay small enough that index files suffice (no search engine required). You might want different output formats entirely. Share this with your LLM agent and work collaboratively to instantiate a version fitting your needs. This document's sole purpose is communicating the pattern; your LLM figures out the rest.

+# Add Linear Channel
+
+Adds Linear support via the Chat SDK bridge. The agent participates in issue comment threads. Every comment on a Linear issue triggers the agent — no @-mention needed.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+**Recommended:** Create a Linear **OAuth application** so the agent posts as an app identity, not as you. This prevents the adapter from filtering your own comments as self-messages.
+
+1. Go to [Linear Settings > API > OAuth Applications](https://linear.app/settings/api/applications/new)
+2. Create an app (e.g. "NanoClaw Bot")
+   - Developer URL: your repo URL (e.g. `https://github.com/your-org/nanoclaw`)
+   - Callback URL: `http://localhost`
+3. After creating, click the app and enable **Client credentials** under grant types
+4. Copy the **Client ID** and **Client Secret**
+
+**Alternative:** Use a Personal API Key (`LINEAR_API_KEY`) for simpler setup. The agent will post as you, and your own comments will be filtered (other team members' comments still work).
+
+## Install
+
+NanoClaw doesn't ship channels in trunk. This skill copies the Linear adapter in from the `channels` branch and patches the Chat SDK bridge to support catch-all message forwarding (Linear OAuth apps can't be @-mentioned).
+
+### Pre-flight (idempotent)
+
+Skip to **Credentials** if all of these are already in place:
+
+- `src/channels/linear.ts` exists
+- `src/channels/index.ts` contains `import './linear.js';`
+- `@chat-adapter/linear` is listed in `package.json` dependencies
+- `src/channels/chat-sdk-bridge.ts` contains `catchAll`
+
+Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.
+
+### 1. Fetch the channels branch
+
+```bash
+git fetch origin channels
+```
+
+### 2. Copy the adapter
+
+```bash
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/linear.ts > src/channels/linear.ts
+```
+
+### 3. Append the self-registration import
+
+Append to `src/channels/index.ts` (skip if the line is already present):
+
+```typescript
+import './linear.js';
+```
+
+### 4. Patch the Chat SDK bridge for catch-all message forwarding
+
+Linear OAuth apps can't be @-mentioned, so the bridge's `onNewMention` handler never fires. Add `catchAll` support to `src/channels/chat-sdk-bridge.ts`:
+
+**4a.** Add `catchAll?: boolean` to the `ChatSdkBridgeConfig` interface:
+
+```typescript
+  /**
+   * Forward ALL messages in unsubscribed threads, not just @-mentions.
+   * Use for platforms where the bot identity can't be @-mentioned (e.g.
+   * Linear OAuth apps). The thread is auto-subscribed on first message.
+   */
+  catchAll?: boolean;
+```
+
+**4b.** Add this handler block right after the `chat.onNewMention(...)` block (before the DMs block):
+
+```typescript
+      // Catch-all for platforms where @-mention isn't possible (e.g. Linear
+      // OAuth apps). Forward every unsubscribed message and auto-subscribe.
+      if (config.catchAll) {
+        chat.onNewMessage(/.*/, async (thread, message) => {
+          const channelId = adapter.channelIdFromThreadId(thread.id);
+          await setupConfig.onInbound(channelId, thread.id, await messageToInbound(message));
+          await thread.subscribe();
+        });
+      }
+```
+
+### 5. Install the adapter package (pinned)
+
+```bash
+pnpm install @chat-adapter/linear@4.26.0
+```
+
+### 6. Build
+
+```bash
+pnpm run build
+```
+
+## Credentials
+
+### 1. Set up a webhook
+
+1. Go to **Linear Settings** > **API** > **Webhooks** > **New webhook**
+2. Label: `NanoClaw`
+3. URL: `https://your-domain/webhook/linear` (the shared webhook server, default port 3000)
+4. Team: select the team you want to monitor
+5. Events: check **Comment**
+6. Save — copy the **signing secret**
+
+Note: Linear webhook delivery may be delayed 1-5 minutes for new webhooks. This is normal.
+
+### 2. Configure environment
+
+Add to `.env`:
+
+```bash
+# OAuth app (recommended)
+LINEAR_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
+LINEAR_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret
+
+# OR Personal API key (simpler, but agent posts as you)
+# LINEAR_API_KEY=lin_api_...
+
+LINEAR_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your-webhook-signing-secret
+LINEAR_BOT_USERNAME=NanoClaw Bot
+LINEAR_TEAM_KEY=ENG
+```
+
+- `LINEAR_BOT_USERNAME`: display name for the bot (used for self-message detection when using a Personal API Key)
+- `LINEAR_TEAM_KEY`: the Linear team key (e.g. `ENG`, `NAN`). Find it in Linear under Settings > Teams. All issues in this team route to one messaging group.
+
+Sync to container: `mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env`
+
+## Wiring
+
+Ask the user: **Is this a private or public Linear workspace?**
+
+- **Private workspace** — use `unknown_sender_policy: 'public'`. Only workspace members can comment.
+- **Public workspace** — use `unknown_sender_policy: 'strict'` and add trusted members (see GitHub skill for member registration example).
+
+Run `/manage-channels` to wire the Linear channel to an agent group, or insert manually:
+
+```sql
+-- Create messaging group (one per team)
+INSERT INTO messaging_groups (id, channel_type, platform_id, name, is_group, unknown_sender_policy, created_at)
+VALUES ('mg-linear-eng', 'linear', 'linear:ENG', 'Engineering', 1, 'public', datetime('now'));
+
+-- Wire to agent group
+INSERT INTO messaging_group_agents (id, messaging_group_id, agent_group_id, trigger_rules, response_scope, session_mode, priority, created_at)
+VALUES ('mga-linear-eng', 'mg-linear-eng', '<your-agent-group-id>', '', 'all', 'per-thread', 10, datetime('now'));
+```
+
+The `platform_id` must be `linear:<TEAM_KEY>` matching the `LINEAR_TEAM_KEY` env var. Use `per-thread` session mode so each issue comment thread gets its own agent session.
+
+## Next Steps
+
+If you're in the middle of `/setup`, return to the setup flow now.
+
+Otherwise, restart the service (`systemctl --user restart nanoclaw` or `launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw`) to pick up the new channel.
+
+## Channel Info
+
+- **type**: `linear`
+- **terminology**: Linear has "teams" containing "issues." Each issue's comment thread is a separate conversation.
+- **how-to-find-id**: The platform ID is `linear:<TEAM_KEY>` (e.g. `linear:ENG`). Find your team key in Linear under Settings > Teams. Each issue becomes its own thread automatically.
+- **supports-threads**: yes (issue comment threads are native conversations)
+- **typical-use**: Webhook-driven — the agent receives all issue comment events and responds automatically. No @-mention needed (Linear OAuth apps can't be @-mentioned).
+- **default-isolation**: Use `per-thread` session mode. Each issue comment thread gets its own isolated agent session.

+```
+
+### 5. Patch matrix-js-sdk ESM imports
+
+The adapter's published dist references `matrix-js-sdk/lib/...` without `.js`
+extensions, which fails under Node 22 strict ESM resolution. Add the missing
+extensions (idempotent — safe to re-run):
+
+```bash

+  const root = "node_modules/.pnpm";
+  const dir = fs.readdirSync(root).find(d => d.startsWith("@beeper+chat-adapter-matrix@"));

+    /from "(matrix-js-sdk\/lib\/[^"]+?)(?<!\.js)"/g, "from \"$1.js\""
+  ));
+  console.log("Patched", f);
+'
+```
+
+Re-run this after every `pnpm install` that touches the adapter.
+
+### 6. Build
+
+```bash
+pnpm run build
+```
+
+## Credentials
+
+The bot needs its own Matrix account — separate from the user's account. This is required because Matrix cannot send DMs to yourself.
+
+### Create a bot account
+
+1. Open [app.element.io](https://app.element.io) in a private/incognito window (or sign out first)
+2. Register a new account for the bot (e.g. `andybot` on matrix.org)
+3. Note the bot's user ID (e.g. `@andybot:matrix.org`)
+
+### Choose an auth method
+
+**Option A: Username + Password (simpler)**
+
+No extra steps — just use the bot account's credentials directly. The adapter logs in automatically.
+
+```bash
+MATRIX_BASE_URL=https://matrix.org
+MATRIX_USERNAME=andybot
+MATRIX_PASSWORD=your-bot-password
+MATRIX_USER_ID=@andybot:matrix.org
+MATRIX_BOT_USERNAME=Andy
+```
+
+**Option B: Access Token (recommended for production)**
+
+Get an access token from Element: sign into the bot account → **Settings** > **Help & About** > **Access Token** (under Advanced). Or via API:
+
+```bash
+curl -XPOST 'https://matrix.org/_matrix/client/r0/login' \
+  -d '{"type":"m.login.password","user":"andybot","password":"..."}'
+```
+
+```bash
+MATRIX_BASE_URL=https://matrix.org
+MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token
+MATRIX_USER_ID=@andybot:matrix.org
+MATRIX_BOT_USERNAME=Andy
+```
+
+### Optional settings
+
+```bash
+MATRIX_INVITE_AUTOJOIN=true                    # Auto-accept room invites (default: true)
+MATRIX_INVITE_AUTOJOIN_ALLOWLIST=@you:matrix.org  # Only accept invites from these users
+MATRIX_RECOVERY_KEY=your-recovery-key          # Enable E2EE cross-signing
+MATRIX_DEVICE_ID=NANOCLAW01                    # Stable device ID across restarts
+```
+
+### Configure environment
+
+Add the chosen env vars to `.env`, then sync:
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env
+```
+
+## Next Steps
+
+If you're in the middle of `/setup`, return to the setup flow now.
+
+Otherwise, run `/manage-channels` to wire this channel to an agent group.
+
+## Channel Info
+
+- **type**: `matrix`
+- **terminology**: Matrix has "rooms." A room can be a group chat or a direct message. Rooms have internal IDs (like `!abc123:matrix.org`) and optional aliases (like `#general:matrix.org`).
+- **how-to-find-id**: For DMs, use the bot's `openDM` to resolve the room automatically. For group rooms, in Element click the room name > Settings > Advanced — the "Internal room ID" is the platform ID (starts with `!`). Or use a room alias like `#general:matrix.org`.
+- **supports-threads**: partial (some clients support threads, but not all — treat as no for reliability)
+- **typical-use**: Interactive chat — rooms or direct messages. Requires a separate bot account (the agent cannot DM users from their own account).
+- **default-isolation**: Same agent group for rooms where you're the primary user. Separate agent group for rooms with different communities or sensitive contexts.

+description: Route a NanoClaw agent group to a local Ollama model instead of the Anthropic API. Ollama speaks the Anthropic API natively (v1/messages), so no provider code changes are needed — just env var overrides and a model setting. Use when the user wants to run their agent locally, cut API costs, or experiment with open-weight models. See docs/ollama.md for background.
+---
+
+# Add Ollama Provider
+
+Routes an agent group to a local Ollama instance instead of the Anthropic API.
+See `docs/ollama.md` for how this works and the tradeoffs involved.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. **Ollama is installed and running** on the host — verify: `curl -s http://localhost:11434/api/tags`
+2. **A model is pulled** — e.g. `ollama pull gemma4` or `ollama pull qwen3-coder`
+3. **The agent group already exists** — run `/init-first-agent` first if needed
+
+## 1. Check source support
+
+The feature requires two fields in `ContainerConfig` (`env` and `blockedHosts`) and their
+corresponding wiring in `container-runner.ts`. Check if already present:
+
+```bash
+grep -c 'blockedHosts' src/container-config.ts src/container-runner.ts
+```
+
+If either count is 0, apply the changes in steps 1a and 1b. Otherwise skip to step 2.
+
+### 1a. Extend ContainerConfig
+
+In `src/container-config.ts`, add to the `ContainerConfig` interface:
+
+```typescript
+env?: Record<string, string>;
+blockedHosts?: string[];
+```
+
+And in `readContainerConfig`, add inside the returned object:
+
+```typescript
+env: raw.env,
+blockedHosts: raw.blockedHosts,
+```
+
+### 1b. Wire into container-runner
+
+In `src/container-runner.ts`, after the `NANOCLAW_MCP_SERVERS` block, add:
+
+```typescript
+// Per-agent-group env overrides — applied last to win over OneCLI values.
+if (containerConfig.env) {
+  for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(containerConfig.env)) {
+    args.push('-e', `${key}=${value}`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Blocked hosts: resolve to 0.0.0.0 so they are unreachable inside the container.
+if (containerConfig.blockedHosts) {
+  for (const host of containerConfig.blockedHosts) {
+    args.push('--add-host', `${host}:0.0.0.0`);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 1c. Fix home directory permissions (if not already done)
+
+The container may run as your host uid (not uid 1000). Check the Dockerfile:
+
+```bash
+grep 'chmod.*home/node' container/Dockerfile
+```
+
+If it shows `chmod 755`, change it to `chmod 777` so any uid can write there.
+Then rebuild the container image: `./container/build.sh`
+
+## 2. Identify the setup
+
+Ask the user (plain text, not AskUserQuestion):
+
+1. **Which agent group?** List available groups: `sqlite3 data/v2.db "SELECT folder, name FROM agent_groups;"`
+2. **Which Ollama model?** List available: `curl -s http://localhost:11434/api/tags | grep '"name"'`
+3. **Block Anthropic API?** Recommended yes — prevents accidental spend if config drifts.
+
+Record as `FOLDER`, `MODEL`, and `BLOCK_ANTHROPIC`.
+
+## 3. Configure container.json
+
+Read `groups/<FOLDER>/container.json`. Add (or merge into) an `env` block and optionally `blockedHosts`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "env": {
+    "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "http://host.docker.internal:11434",
+    "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "ollama",
+    "NO_PROXY": "host.docker.internal",
+    "no_proxy": "host.docker.internal"
+  },
+  "blockedHosts": ["api.anthropic.com"]
+}
+```
+
+Omit `blockedHosts` if the user declined step 2.
+
+**Why these vars:** `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` redirects the Anthropic SDK to Ollama.
+`ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=ollama` satisfies the SDK's key requirement (Ollama ignores it).
+`NO_PROXY` bypasses the OneCLI HTTPS proxy for requests to `host.docker.internal`
+so they reach Ollama directly instead of going through the credential gateway.
+
+## 4. Set the model
+
+Read the agent group's shared Claude settings:
+
+```bash
+# Find the agent group ID
+AG_ID=$(sqlite3 data/v2.db "SELECT id FROM agent_groups WHERE folder='<FOLDER>';")
+SETTINGS=data/v2-sessions/$AG_ID/.claude-shared/settings.json
+```
+
+Add `"model": "<MODEL>"` to that settings file. Create the file if it doesn't exist:
+
+```json
+{
+  "model": "gemma4:latest"
+}
+```
+
+If the file already has content, merge the `model` key in — don't overwrite existing keys.
+
+**Why here and not container.json:** Claude Code reads its model from its own settings
+file, not from env vars. This file is bind-mounted into the container as `~/.claude/settings.json`.
+
+## 5. Build and restart
+
+```bash
+export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH"
+pnpm run build
+launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
+launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
+# Linux: systemctl --user restart nanoclaw
+```
+
+## 6. Verify
+
+Send a message to the agent. Then confirm:
+
+```bash
+# Ollama shows the model as active
+curl -s http://localhost:11434/api/ps | grep '"name"'
+
+# Container has the right env vars
+CTR=$(docker ps --filter "name=nanoclaw-v2-<FOLDER>" --format "{{.Names}}" | head -1)
+docker inspect "$CTR" --format '{{json .HostConfig.ExtraHosts}}'
+docker exec "$CTR" env | grep ANTHROPIC
+```
+
+Expected: `api.anthropic.com:0.0.0.0` in ExtraHosts, `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://host.docker.internal:11434`.
+
+## Reverting to Claude
+
+To switch back to the Anthropic API:
+
+1. Remove the `env` and `blockedHosts` keys from `groups/<FOLDER>/container.json`
+2. Remove `"model"` from the shared settings file
+3. Restart the service
+
+No rebuild needed — both files are read at container spawn time.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Agent hangs, no response:** Ollama may be loading the model cold (large models take 10–30s).
+Watch `curl -s http://localhost:11434/api/ps` — the model appears once loaded.
+
+**"model not found" error in container logs:** The model name in settings.json doesn't match
+what Ollama has. Run `ollama list` on the host and use the exact name shown.
+
+**Responses claim to be Claude:** The model was trained on data that includes Claude conversations.
+Add a line to `groups/<FOLDER>/CLAUDE.md` telling it what model it runs on.
+
+**Agent responds but Ollama shows no activity:** `NO_PROXY` may not have taken effect for
+`http_proxy` (lowercase). Add both `NO_PROXY` and `no_proxy` to the env block.

+# OpenCode agent provider
+
+NanoClaw runs agents in a long-lived **poll loop** inside the container. The backend is selected with **`AGENT_PROVIDER`** (`claude` | `opencode` | `mock`).
+
+Trunk ships with only the `claude` provider baked in. This skill copies the OpenCode provider files in from the `providers` branch, wires them into the host and container barrels, installs dependencies, and rebuilds the image.
+
+## Install
+
+### Pre-flight
+
+If all of the following are already present, skip to **Configuration**:
+
+- `src/providers/opencode.ts`
+- `container/agent-runner/src/providers/opencode.ts`
+- `import './opencode.js';` line in `src/providers/index.ts`
+- `import './opencode.js';` line in `container/agent-runner/src/providers/index.ts`
+- `@opencode-ai/sdk` in `container/agent-runner/package.json`
+- `opencode-ai@${OPENCODE_VERSION}` in the pnpm global-install block in `container/Dockerfile`
+
+Missing pieces — continue below. All steps are idempotent; re-running is safe.
+
+### 1. Fetch the providers branch
+
+```bash
+git fetch origin providers
+```
+
+### 2. Copy the OpenCode source files
+
+Wholesale copies (owned entirely by this skill — user edits to these files won't survive a re-run, as designed):
+
+```bash
+git show origin/providers:src/providers/opencode.ts                                    > src/providers/opencode.ts
+git show origin/providers:container/agent-runner/src/providers/opencode.ts             > container/agent-runner/src/providers/opencode.ts
+git show origin/providers:container/agent-runner/src/providers/mcp-to-opencode.ts      > container/agent-runner/src/providers/mcp-to-opencode.ts
+git show origin/providers:container/agent-runner/src/providers/mcp-to-opencode.test.ts > container/agent-runner/src/providers/mcp-to-opencode.test.ts
+git show origin/providers:container/agent-runner/src/providers/opencode.factory.test.ts > container/agent-runner/src/providers/opencode.factory.test.ts
+```
+
+### 3. Append the self-registration imports
+
+Each barrel gets one line appended at the end — skip if the line is already present.
+
+`src/providers/index.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+import './opencode.js';
+```
+
+`container/agent-runner/src/providers/index.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+import './opencode.js';
+```
+
+### 4. Add the agent-runner dependency
+
+Pinned. Bump deliberately, not with `bun update`. Use `1.4.17` — must match the `opencode-ai` CLI version pinned in step 5. The 1.14.x SDK has a completely different API and is **incompatible** with the current provider code.
+
+```bash
+cd container/agent-runner && bun add @opencode-ai/sdk@1.4.17 && cd -
+```
+
+### 5. Add `opencode-ai` to the container Dockerfile
+
+Two edits to `container/Dockerfile`, both idempotent (skip if already present):
+
+**(a)** In the "Pin CLI versions" ARG block (around line 18), add after `ARG VERCEL_VERSION=latest`:
+
+```dockerfile
+ARG OPENCODE_VERSION=1.4.17
+```
+
+> **Do not use `latest`** — the CLI and SDK must be the same version. `latest` silently upgrades the CLI to 1.14.x which has a breaking session API change (UUID session IDs → `ses_` prefix) incompatible with SDK 1.4.x.
+
+**(b)** In the `pnpm install -g` block (around line 80), append `"opencode-ai@${OPENCODE_VERSION}"` to the list:
+
+```dockerfile
+    pnpm install -g \
+        "@anthropic-ai/claude-code@${CLAUDE_CODE_VERSION}" \
+        "agent-browser@${AGENT_BROWSER_VERSION}" \
+        "vercel@${VERCEL_VERSION}" \
+        "opencode-ai@${OPENCODE_VERSION}"
+```
+
+### 6. Build
+
+```bash
+pnpm run build                                         # host
+pnpm exec tsc -p container/agent-runner/tsconfig.json --noEmit   # container typecheck
+./container/build.sh                                   # agent image
+```
+
+> **Build cache gotcha:** The container buildkit caches COPY steps aggressively. If provider files were already present in the build context before, the new files may not be picked up. If you see "Unknown provider: opencode" after the build, prune the builder and rebuild:
+> ```bash
+> docker builder prune -f && ./container/build.sh
+> ```
+
+### 7. Propagate to existing per-group overlays
+
+Each agent group has a live source overlay at `data/v2-sessions/<group-id>/agent-runner-src/providers/` that **overrides the image at runtime**. This overlay is created when the group is first wired and never auto-updated by image rebuilds. Any group that already existed before this skill ran needs the new files copied in manually.
+
+```bash
+for overlay in data/v2-sessions/*/agent-runner-src/providers/; do
+  [ -d "$overlay" ] || continue
+  cp container/agent-runner/src/providers/opencode.ts "$overlay"
+  cp container/agent-runner/src/providers/mcp-to-opencode.ts "$overlay"
+  cp container/agent-runner/src/providers/index.ts "$overlay"
+  echo "Updated: $overlay"
+done
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Host `.env` (typical)
+
+Set model/provider strings in the form OpenCode expects (often `provider/model-id`). **Put comments on their own lines** — a `#` inside a value is kept verbatim and breaks model IDs.
+
+These variables are read **on the host** and passed into the container only when the effective provider is `opencode`. They do not switch the provider by themselves; the DB still needs `agent_provider` set (below).
+
+- `OPENCODE_PROVIDER` — OpenCode provider id, e.g. `openrouter`, `anthropic`, `deepseek`.
+- `OPENCODE_MODEL` — full model id in `provider/model` form, e.g. `deepseek/deepseek-chat`.
+- `OPENCODE_SMALL_MODEL` — optional second model for lighter tasks; defaults to `OPENCODE_MODEL` if unset.
+- `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` — **required for non-`anthropic` providers.** The opencode container provider passes this as the `baseURL` for the upstream provider config so requests route through OneCLI's credential proxy or directly to the provider's API. Set it to the provider's API base URL (e.g. `https://api.deepseek.com/v1`, `https://openrouter.ai/api/v1`).
+
+Credentials: register provider API keys in OneCLI with the matching `--host-pattern` (e.g. `api.deepseek.com`, `openrouter.ai`). OneCLI injects them via `HTTPS_PROXY` in the container — the key never lives in `.env` or the container environment.
+
+After adding a secret, **grant the agent access** — agents in `selective` mode only receive secrets they've been explicitly assigned:
+
+```bash
+# Find the agent id and secret id, then:
+onecli agents set-secrets --id <agent-id> --secret-ids <existing-ids>,<new-secret-id>
+```
+
+Always include existing secret IDs in the list — `set-secrets` replaces, not appends.
+
+#### Example: DeepSeek
+
+```env
+OPENCODE_PROVIDER=deepseek
+OPENCODE_MODEL=deepseek/deepseek-chat
+OPENCODE_SMALL_MODEL=deepseek/deepseek-chat
+ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://api.deepseek.com/v1
+```
+
+Register the key:
+```bash
+onecli secrets create --name "DeepSeek" --type generic \
+  --value YOUR_KEY --host-pattern "api.deepseek.com" \
+  --header-name "Authorization" --value-format "Bearer {value}"
+```
+
+#### Example: OpenRouter
+
+```env
+OPENCODE_PROVIDER=openrouter
+OPENCODE_MODEL=openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
+OPENCODE_SMALL_MODEL=openrouter/anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5
+ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://openrouter.ai/api/v1
+```
+
+Register the key:
+```bash
+onecli secrets create --name "OpenRouter" --type generic \
+  --value YOUR_KEY --host-pattern "openrouter.ai" \
+  --header-name "Authorization" --value-format "Bearer {value}"
+```
+
+#### Example: Anthropic (no ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL needed)
+
+When `OPENCODE_PROVIDER` is `anthropic`, OpenCode uses normal Anthropic env inside the container — the proxy + placeholder key pattern is unchanged and `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` is not required.
+
+```env
+OPENCODE_PROVIDER=anthropic
+OPENCODE_MODEL=anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514
+OPENCODE_SMALL_MODEL=anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5-20251001
+```
+
+#### OpenCode Zen (`x-api-key`, not Bearer)
+
+Zen's HTTP API (e.g. `POST …/zen/v1/messages`) expects the key in the **`x-api-key`** header. If OneCLI injects **`Authorization: Bearer …`** only, Zen often returns **401 / "Missing API key"** even though the gateway is working.
+
+**Naming:** NanoClaw **`AGENT_PROVIDER=opencode`** (DB `agent_provider`) means "run the **OpenCode agent provider**." Separately, **`OPENCODE_PROVIDER=opencode`** in `.env` is OpenCode's **Zen provider id** inside the OpenCode config (see [Zen docs](https://opencode.ai/docs/zen/)).
+
+**Host `.env` (typical Zen shape):**
+
+```env
+OPENCODE_PROVIDER=opencode
+OPENCODE_MODEL=opencode/big-pickle
+OPENCODE_SMALL_MODEL=opencode/big-pickle
+ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://opencode.ai/zen/v1
+```
+
+Use a real Zen model id from the docs; `big-pickle` is one example.
+
+**OneCLI:** register the Zen key with **`x-api-key`**, not Bearer:
+
+```bash
+onecli secrets create --name "OpenCode Zen" --type generic \
+  --value YOUR_ZEN_KEY --host-pattern opencode.ai \
+  --header-name "x-api-key" --value-format "{value}"
+```
+
+### Per group / per session
+
+Schema: **`agent_groups.agent_provider`** and **`sessions.agent_provider`**. Set to `opencode` for groups or sessions that should use OpenCode. The container receives `AGENT_PROVIDER` from the resolved value (session overrides group).
+
+Extra MCP servers still come from **`NANOCLAW_MCP_SERVERS`** / `container_config.mcpServers` on the host; the runner merges them into the same `mcpServers` object passed to **both** Claude and OpenCode providers.
+
+## Operational notes
+
+- OpenCode keeps a local **`opencode serve`** process and SSE subscription; the provider tears down with **`stream.return`** and **SIGKILL** on the server process on **`abort()`** / shared runtime reset to avoid MCP/zombie hangs.
+- Session continuation uses UUID format (SDK 1.4.x / CLI 1.4.x). Stale sessions are cleared by `isSessionInvalid` on OpenCode-specific error patterns. If you see UUID-related errors after an accidental CLI upgrade, clear `session_state` in `outbound.db` and wipe the `opencode-xdg` directory under the session folder.
+- **`NO_PROXY`** for localhost matters when the OpenCode client talks to `127.0.0.1` inside the container while HTTP(S)_PROXY is set (e.g. OneCLI).
+
+## Verify

-description: Add PDF reading to NanoClaw agents. Extracts text from PDFs via pdftotext CLI. Handles WhatsApp attachments, URLs, and local files.
----
-
-# Add PDF Reader
-
-Adds PDF reading capability to all container agents using poppler-utils (pdftotext/pdfinfo). PDFs sent as WhatsApp attachments are auto-downloaded to the group workspace.
-
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
-
-1. Check if `container/skills/pdf-reader/pdf-reader` exists — skip to Phase 3 if already applied
-2. Confirm WhatsApp is installed first (`skill/whatsapp` merged). This skill modifies WhatsApp channel files.
-
-## Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
-
-### Ensure WhatsApp fork remote
-
-```bash
-git remote -v
-```
-
-If `whatsapp` is missing, add it:
-
-```bash
-git remote add whatsapp https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw-whatsapp.git
-```
-
-### Merge the skill branch
-
-```bash
-git fetch whatsapp skill/pdf-reader
-git merge whatsapp/skill/pdf-reader || {
-  git checkout --theirs package-lock.json
-  git add package-lock.json
-  git merge --continue
-}
-```
-
-This merges in:
-- `container/skills/pdf-reader/SKILL.md` (agent-facing documentation)
-- `container/skills/pdf-reader/pdf-reader` (CLI script)
-- `poppler-utils` in `container/Dockerfile`
-- PDF attachment download in `src/channels/whatsapp.ts`
-- PDF tests in `src/channels/whatsapp.test.ts`
-
-If the merge reports conflicts, resolve them by reading the conflicted files and understanding the intent of both sides.
-
-### Validate
-
-```bash
-npm run build
-npx vitest run src/channels/whatsapp.test.ts
-```
-
-### Rebuild container
-
-```bash
-./container/build.sh
-```
-
-### Restart service
-
-```bash
-launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw  # macOS
-# Linux: systemctl --user restart nanoclaw
-```
-
-## Phase 3: Verify
-
-### Test PDF extraction
-
-Send a PDF file in any registered WhatsApp chat. The agent should:
-1. Download the PDF to `attachments/`
-2. Respond acknowledging the PDF
-3. Be able to extract text when asked
-
-### Test URL fetching
-
-Ask the agent to read a PDF from a URL. It should use `pdf-reader fetch <url>`.
-
-### Check logs if needed
-
-```bash
-tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log | grep -i pdf
-```
-
-Look for:
-- `Downloaded PDF attachment` — successful download
-- `Failed to download PDF attachment` — media download issue
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Agent says pdf-reader command not found
-
-Container needs rebuilding. Run `./container/build.sh` and restart the service.
-
-### PDF text extraction is empty
-
-The PDF may be scanned (image-based). pdftotext only handles text-based PDFs. Consider using the agent-browser to open the PDF visually instead.
-
-### WhatsApp PDF not detected
-
-Verify the message has `documentMessage` with `mimetype: application/pdf`. Some file-sharing apps send PDFs as generic files without the correct mimetype.

-1. Send a message from your phone
-2. React to it with an emoji on WhatsApp
-3. Check the database:
-
-```bash
-sqlite3 store/messages.db "SELECT * FROM reactions ORDER BY timestamp DESC LIMIT 5;"
-```
-
-### Test sending reactions
-
-Ask the agent to react to a message via the `react_to_message` MCP tool. Check your phone — the reaction should appear on the message.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Reactions not appearing in database
-
-- Check NanoClaw logs for `Failed to process reaction` errors
-- Verify the chat is registered
-- Confirm the service is running
-
-### Migration fails
-
-- Ensure `store/messages.db` exists and is accessible
-- If "table reactions already exists", the migration already ran — skip it
-
-### Agent can't send reactions
-
-- Check IPC logs for `Unauthorized IPC reaction attempt blocked` — the agent can only react in its own group's chat
-- Verify WhatsApp is connected: check logs for connection status

+## Channel Info
+
+- **type**: `resend`
+- **terminology**: Resend handles email. Each email thread (identified by subject/In-Reply-To headers) is a separate conversation. The "from address" is the bot's identity.
+- **how-to-find-id**: The platform ID is the from email address (e.g. `bot@yourdomain.com`). Each sender's email thread becomes its own conversation.
+- **supports-threads**: yes (via email threading headers -- replies to the same thread stay together)
+- **typical-use**: Async communication -- email conversations with longer response expectations
+- **default-isolation**: Same agent group if you want your agent to handle email alongside other channels. Separate agent group if email contains sensitive correspondence that shouldn't be accessible from other channels.

-
-Wait for the user to provide the channel ID.
-
-### Register the channel
-
-The channel ID, name, and folder name are needed. Use `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step register` with the appropriate flags.
-
-For a main channel (responds to all messages):
-
-```bash
-npx tsx setup/index.ts --step register -- --jid "slack:<channel-id>" --name "<channel-name>" --folder "slack_main" --trigger "@${ASSISTANT_NAME}" --channel slack --no-trigger-required --is-main

-```
-
-## Phase 5: Verify
-
-### Test the connection
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> Send a message in your registered Slack channel:
-> - For main channel: Any message works
-> - For non-main: `@<assistant-name> hello` (using the configured trigger word)
->
-> The bot should respond within a few seconds.

-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Bot not responding
-
-1. Check `SLACK_BOT_TOKEN` and `SLACK_APP_TOKEN` are set in `.env` AND synced to `data/env/env`
-2. Check channel is registered: `sqlite3 store/messages.db "SELECT * FROM registered_groups WHERE jid LIKE 'slack:%'"`
-3. For non-main channels: message must include trigger pattern
-4. Service is running: `launchctl list | grep nanoclaw`
-
-### Bot connected but not receiving messages
-
-1. Verify Socket Mode is enabled in the Slack app settings
-2. Verify the bot is subscribed to the correct events (`message.channels`, `message.groups`, `message.im`)
-3. Verify the bot has been added to the channel
-4. Check that the bot has the required OAuth scopes
-
-### Bot not seeing messages in channels
-
-By default, bots only see messages in channels they've been explicitly added to. Make sure to:
-1. Add the bot to each channel you want it to monitor
-2. Check the bot has `channels:history` and/or `groups:history` scopes
-
-### "missing_scope" errors
-
-If the bot logs `missing_scope` errors:
-1. Go to **OAuth & Permissions** in your Slack app settings
-2. Add the missing scope listed in the error message
-3. **Reinstall the app** to your workspace — scope changes require reinstallation
-4. Copy the new Bot Token (it changes on reinstall) and update `.env`
-5. Sync: `mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env`
-6. Restart: `launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw`
-
-### Getting channel ID
-
-If the channel ID is hard to find:
-- In Slack desktop: right-click channel → **Copy link** → extract the `C...` ID from the URL
-- In Slack web: the URL shows `https://app.slack.com/client/TXXXXXXX/C0123456789`
-- Via API: `curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $SLACK_BOT_TOKEN" "https://slack.com/api/conversations.list" | jq '.channels[] | {id, name}'`
-
-## After Setup
-
-The Slack channel supports:
-- **Public channels** — Bot must be added to the channel
-- **Private channels** — Bot must be invited to the channel
-- **Direct messages** — Users can DM the bot directly
-- **Multi-channel** — Can run alongside WhatsApp or other channels (auto-enabled by credentials)
-
-## Known Limitations
-
-- **Threads are flattened** — Threaded replies are delivered to the agent as regular channel messages. The agent sees them but has no awareness they originated in a thread. Responses always go to the channel, not back into the thread. Users in a thread will need to check the main channel for the bot's reply. Full thread-aware routing (respond in-thread) requires pipeline-wide changes: database schema, `NewMessage` type, `Channel.sendMessage` interface, and routing logic.
-- **No typing indicator** — Slack's Bot API does not expose a typing indicator endpoint. The `setTyping()` method is a no-op. Users won't see "bot is typing..." while the agent works.
-- **Message splitting is naive** — Long messages are split at a fixed 4000-character boundary, which may break mid-word or mid-sentence. A smarter split (on paragraph or sentence boundaries) would improve readability.
-- **No file/image handling** — The bot only processes text content. File uploads, images, and rich message blocks are not forwarded to the agent.
-- **Channel metadata sync is unbounded** — `syncChannelMetadata()` paginates through all channels the bot is a member of, but has no upper bound or timeout. Workspaces with thousands of channels may experience slow startup.
-- **Workspace admin policies not detected** — If the Slack workspace restricts bot app installation, the setup will fail at the "Install to Workspace" step with no programmatic detection or guidance. See SLACK_SETUP.md troubleshooting section.
+- **type**: `slack`
+- **terminology**: Slack has "workspaces" containing "channels." Channels can be public (#general) or private. The bot can also receive direct messages.
+- **platform-id-format**: `slack:{channelId}` for channels (e.g., `slack:C0123ABC`), `slack:{dmId}` for DMs (e.g., `slack:D0ARWEBLV63`)
+- **how-to-find-id**: Right-click a channel name > "View channel details" — the Channel ID is at the bottom (starts with C). For DMs, the ID starts with D. Or copy the channel link — the ID is the last segment of the URL.
+- **supports-threads**: yes
+- **typical-use**: Interactive chat — team channels or direct messages
+- **default-isolation**: Same agent group for channels where you're the primary user. Separate agent group for channels with different teams or sensitive contexts.

+---
+
+# Add Microsoft Teams Channel
+
+Connect NanoClaw to Microsoft Teams for interactive chat in team channels, group chats, and direct messages.
+
+## Install
+
+NanoClaw doesn't ship channels in trunk. This skill copies the Teams adapter in from the `channels` branch.
+
+### Pre-flight (idempotent)
+
+Skip to **Credentials** if all of these are already in place:
+
+- `src/channels/teams.ts` exists
+- `src/channels/index.ts` contains `import './teams.js';`
+- `@chat-adapter/teams` is listed in `package.json` dependencies
+
+Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.
+
+### 1. Fetch the channels branch
+
+```bash
+git fetch origin channels
+```
+
+### 2. Copy the adapter
+
+```bash
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/teams.ts > src/channels/teams.ts
+```
+
+### 3. Append the self-registration import
+
+Append to `src/channels/index.ts` (skip if the line is already present):
+
+```typescript
+import './teams.js';
+```
+
+### 4. Install the adapter package (pinned)
+
+```bash
+pnpm install @chat-adapter/teams@4.26.0
+```
+
+### 5. Build
+
+```bash
+pnpm run build
+```
+
+## Credentials
+
+### Step 1: Create an Azure AD App Registration
+
+1. Go to [Azure Portal](https://portal.azure.com) > **App registrations** > **New registration**
+2. Name it (e.g., "NanoClaw")
+3. Supported account types: **Single tenant** (your org only) or **Multi tenant** (any org)
+4. Click **Register**
+5. Copy the **Application (client) ID** and **Directory (tenant) ID** from the Overview page
+
+### Step 2: Create a Client Secret
+
+1. In the App Registration, go to **Certificates & secrets**
+2. Click **New client secret**, description "nanoclaw", expiry 180 days
+3. Click **Add** and **copy the Value immediately** (shown only once)
+
+### Step 3: Create an Azure Bot
+
+1. Go to Azure Portal > search **Azure Bot** > **Create**
+2. Fill in:
+   - **Bot handle**: unique name (e.g., "nanoclaw-bot")
+   - **Type of App**: match your app registration (Single or Multi Tenant)
+   - **Creation type**: **Use existing app registration**
+   - **App ID**: paste from Step 1
+   - **App tenant ID**: paste from Step 1 (Single Tenant only)
+3. Click **Review + create** > **Create**
+
+Or use Azure CLI:
+
+```bash
+az group create --name nanoclaw-rg --location eastus
+az bot create \
+  --resource-group nanoclaw-rg \
+  --name nanoclaw-bot \
+  --app-type SingleTenant \
+  --appid YOUR_APP_ID \
+  --tenant-id YOUR_TENANT_ID \
+  --endpoint "https://your-domain/api/webhooks/teams"
+```
+
+### Step 4: Configure Messaging Endpoint
+
+1. Go to your Azure Bot resource > **Configuration**
+2. Set **Messaging endpoint** to `https://your-domain/api/webhooks/teams`
+3. Click **Apply**
+
+### Step 5: Enable Teams Channel
+
+1. In the Azure Bot resource, go to **Channels**
+2. Click **Microsoft Teams** > Accept terms > **Apply**
+
+Or via CLI:
+
+```bash
+az bot msteams create --resource-group nanoclaw-rg --name nanoclaw-bot
+```
+
+### Step 6: Create and Sideload Teams App
+
+Create a `manifest.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/json-schemas/teams/v1.16/MicrosoftTeams.schema.json",
+  "manifestVersion": "1.16",
+  "version": "1.0.0",
+  "id": "YOUR_APP_ID",
+  "packageName": "com.nanoclaw.bot",
+  "developer": {
+    "name": "NanoClaw",
+    "websiteUrl": "https://your-domain",
+    "privacyUrl": "https://your-domain",
+    "termsOfUseUrl": "https://your-domain"
+  },
+  "name": { "short": "NanoClaw", "full": "NanoClaw Assistant" },
+  "description": {
+    "short": "NanoClaw assistant bot",
+    "full": "NanoClaw personal assistant powered by Claude."
+  },
+  "icons": { "outline": "outline.png", "color": "color.png" },
+  "accentColor": "#4A90D9",
+  "bots": [{
+    "botId": "YOUR_APP_ID",
+    "scopes": ["personal", "team", "groupchat"],
+    "supportsFiles": false,
+    "isNotificationOnly": false
+  }],
+  "permissions": ["identity", "messageTeamMembers"],
+  "validDomains": ["your-domain"]
+}
+```
+
+Create two icon PNGs (32x32 `outline.png`, 192x192 `color.png`), zip all three files together.
+
+**Sideload in Teams:**
+1. Open Teams > **Apps** > **Manage your apps**
+2. Click **Upload an app** > **Upload a custom app**
+3. Select the zip file
+
+Sideloading requires Teams admin access. Free personal Teams does NOT support sideloading. Use a Microsoft 365 Business account or developer tenant.
+
+### Step 7: Receive All Messages (Optional)
+
+By default, the bot only receives messages when @-mentioned. To receive all messages in a channel without @-mention, add RSC permissions to `manifest.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "authorization": {
+    "permissions": {
+      "resourceSpecific": [
+        { "name": "ChannelMessage.Read.Group", "type": "Application" }
+      ]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Configure environment
+
+Add to `.env`:
+
+```bash
+TEAMS_APP_ID=your-app-id
+TEAMS_APP_PASSWORD=your-client-secret
+# For Single Tenant only:
+TEAMS_APP_TENANT_ID=your-tenant-id
+TEAMS_APP_TYPE=SingleTenant
+```
+
+Sync to container: `mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env`
+
+### Webhook server
+
+The Chat SDK bridge automatically starts a shared webhook server on port 3000 (configurable via `WEBHOOK_PORT` env var). The server handles `/api/webhooks/teams` for Teams and other webhook-based adapters. This port must be publicly reachable from the internet for Azure Bot Service to deliver activities.
+
+For local development without a public URL, use a tunnel (e.g., `ngrok http 3000`) and update the messaging endpoint in Azure Bot Configuration.
+
+## Next Steps
+
+If you're in the middle of `/setup`, return to the setup flow now.
+
+Otherwise, run `/manage-channels` to wire this channel to an agent group.
+
+## Channel Info
+
+- **type**: `teams`
+- **terminology**: Teams has "teams" containing "channels." The bot can also receive DMs (personal scope) and group chat messages. Channels support threaded replies.
+- **platform-id-format**: `teams:{base64-encoded-conversation-id}:{base64-encoded-service-url}` — auto-generated by the adapter, not human-readable. Use the auto-created messaging group ID for wiring.
+- **how-to-find-id**: Send a message to the bot in the channel. NanoClaw auto-creates a messaging group and logs the platform ID. Use that messaging group ID for wiring.
+- **supports-threads**: yes (channels only; DMs and group chats are flat)
+- **typical-use**: Team collaboration with the bot in channels; personal assistant via DMs
+- **default-isolation**: Separate agent group per team. DMs can share an agent group with your main channel for unified personal memory.

-name: add-telegram-swarm
-description: Add Agent Swarm (Teams) support to Telegram. Each subagent gets its own bot identity in the group. Requires Telegram channel to be set up first (use /add-telegram). Triggers on "agent swarm", "agent teams telegram", "telegram swarm", "bot pool".
----
-
-# Add Agent Swarm to Telegram
-
-This skill adds Agent Teams (Swarm) support to an existing Telegram channel. Each subagent in a team gets its own bot identity in the Telegram group, so users can visually distinguish which agent is speaking.
-
-**Prerequisite**: Telegram must already be set up via the `/add-telegram` skill. If `src/telegram.ts` does not exist or `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN` is not configured, tell the user to run `/add-telegram` first.
-
-## How It Works
-
-- The **main bot** receives messages and sends lead agent responses (already set up by `/add-telegram`)
-- **Pool bots** are send-only — each gets a Grammy `Api` instance (no polling)
-- When a subagent calls `send_message` with a `sender` parameter, the host assigns a pool bot and renames it to match the sender's role
-- Messages appear in Telegram from different bot identities
-
-```
-Subagent calls send_message(text: "Found 3 results", sender: "Researcher")
-  → MCP writes IPC file with sender field
-  → Host IPC watcher picks it up
-  → Assigns pool bot #2 to "Researcher" (round-robin, stable per-group)
-  → Renames pool bot #2 to "Researcher" via setMyName
-  → Sends message via pool bot #2's Api instance
-  → Appears in Telegram from "Researcher" bot
-```
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-### 1. Create Pool Bots
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> I need you to create 3-5 Telegram bots to use as the agent pool. These will be renamed dynamically to match agent roles.
->
-> 1. Open Telegram and search for `@BotFather`
-> 2. Send `/newbot` for each bot:
->    - Give them any placeholder name (e.g., "Bot 1", "Bot 2")
->    - Usernames like `myproject_swarm_1_bot`, `myproject_swarm_2_bot`, etc.
-> 3. Copy all the tokens
-> 4. Add all bots to your Telegram group(s) where you want agent teams
-
-Wait for user to provide the tokens.
-
-### 2. Disable Group Privacy for Pool Bots
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> **Important**: Each pool bot needs Group Privacy disabled so it can send messages in groups.
->
-> For each pool bot in `@BotFather`:
-> 1. Send `/mybots` and select the bot
-> 2. Go to **Bot Settings** > **Group Privacy** > **Turn off**
->
-> Then add all pool bots to your Telegram group(s).
-
-## Implementation
-
-### Step 1: Update Configuration
-
-Read `src/config.ts` and add the bot pool config near the other Telegram exports:
-
-```typescript
-export const TELEGRAM_BOT_POOL = (process.env.TELEGRAM_BOT_POOL || '')
-  .split(',')
-  .map((t) => t.trim())
-  .filter(Boolean);
-```
-
-### Step 2: Add Bot Pool to Telegram Module
-
-Read `src/telegram.ts` and add the following:
-
-1. **Update imports** — add `Api` to the Grammy import:
-
-```typescript
-import { Api, Bot } from 'grammy';
-```
-
-2. **Add pool state** after the existing `let bot` declaration:
-
-```typescript
-// Bot pool for agent teams: send-only Api instances (no polling)
-const poolApis: Api[] = [];
-// Maps "{groupFolder}:{senderName}" → pool Api index for stable assignment
-const senderBotMap = new Map<string, number>();
-let nextPoolIndex = 0;
-```
-
-3. **Add pool functions** — place these before the `isTelegramConnected` function:
-
-```typescript
-/**
- * Initialize send-only Api instances for the bot pool.
- * Each pool bot can send messages but doesn't poll for updates.
- */
-export async function initBotPool(tokens: string[]): Promise<void> {
-  for (const token of tokens) {
-    try {
-      const api = new Api(token);
-      const me = await api.getMe();
-      poolApis.push(api);
-      logger.info(
-        { username: me.username, id: me.id, poolSize: poolApis.length },
-        'Pool bot initialized',
-      );
-    } catch (err) {
-      logger.error({ err }, 'Failed to initialize pool bot');
-    }
-  }
-  if (poolApis.length > 0) {
-    logger.info({ count: poolApis.length }, 'Telegram bot pool ready');
-  }
-}
-
-/**
- * Send a message via a pool bot assigned to the given sender name.
- * Assigns bots round-robin on first use; subsequent messages from the
- * same sender in the same group always use the same bot.
- * On first assignment, renames the bot to match the sender's role.
- */
-export async function sendPoolMessage(
-  chatId: string,
-  text: string,
-  sender: string,
-  groupFolder: string,
-): Promise<void> {
-  if (poolApis.length === 0) {
-    // No pool bots — fall back to main bot
-    await sendTelegramMessage(chatId, text);
-    return;
-  }
-
-  const key = `${groupFolder}:${sender}`;
-  let idx = senderBotMap.get(key);
-  if (idx === undefined) {
-    idx = nextPoolIndex % poolApis.length;
-    nextPoolIndex++;
-    senderBotMap.set(key, idx);
-    // Rename the bot to match the sender's role, then wait for Telegram to propagate
-    try {
-      await poolApis[idx].setMyName(sender);
-      await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 2000));
-      logger.info({ sender, groupFolder, poolIndex: idx }, 'Assigned and renamed pool bot');
-    } catch (err) {
-      logger.warn({ sender, err }, 'Failed to rename pool bot (sending anyway)');
-    }
-  }
-
-  const api = poolApis[idx];
-  try {
-    const numericId = chatId.replace(/^tg:/, '');
-    const MAX_LENGTH = 4096;
-    if (text.length <= MAX_LENGTH) {
-      await api.sendMessage(numericId, text);
-    } else {
-      for (let i = 0; i < text.length; i += MAX_LENGTH) {
-        await api.sendMessage(numericId, text.slice(i, i + MAX_LENGTH));
-      }
-    }
-    logger.info({ chatId, sender, poolIndex: idx, length: text.length }, 'Pool message sent');
-  } catch (err) {
-    logger.error({ chatId, sender, err }, 'Failed to send pool message');
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Step 3: Add sender Parameter to MCP Tool
-
-Read `container/agent-runner/src/ipc-mcp-stdio.ts` and update the `send_message` tool to accept an optional `sender` parameter:
-
-Change the tool's schema from:
-```typescript
-{ text: z.string().describe('The message text to send') },
-```
-
-To:
-```typescript
-{
-  text: z.string().describe('The message text to send'),
-  sender: z.string().optional().describe('Your role/identity name (e.g. "Researcher"). When set, messages appear from a dedicated bot in Telegram.'),
-},
-```
-
-And update the handler to include `sender` in the IPC data:
-
-```typescript
-async (args) => {
-    const data: Record<string, string | undefined> = {
-      type: 'message',
-      chatJid,
-      text: args.text,
-      sender: args.sender || undefined,
-      groupFolder,
-      timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
-    };
-
-    writeIpcFile(MESSAGES_DIR, data);
-
-    return { content: [{ type: 'text' as const, text: 'Message sent.' }] };
-  },
-```
-
-### Step 4: Update Host IPC Routing
-
-Read `src/ipc.ts` and make these changes:
-
-1. **Add imports** — add `sendPoolMessage` and `initBotPool` from the Telegram swarm module, and `TELEGRAM_BOT_POOL` from config.
-
-2. **Update IPC message routing** — in `src/ipc.ts`, find where the `sendMessage` dependency is called to deliver IPC messages (inside `processIpcFiles`). The `sendMessage` is passed in via the `IpcDeps` parameter. Wrap it to route Telegram swarm messages through the bot pool:
-
-```typescript
-if (data.sender && data.chatJid.startsWith('tg:')) {
-  await sendPoolMessage(
-    data.chatJid,
-    data.text,
-    data.sender,
-    sourceGroup,
-  );
-} else {
-  await deps.sendMessage(data.chatJid, data.text);
-}
-```
-
-Note: The assistant name prefix is handled by `formatOutbound()` in the router — Telegram channels have `prefixAssistantName = false` so no prefix is added for `tg:` JIDs.
-
-3. **Initialize pool in `main()` in `src/index.ts`** — after creating the Telegram channel, add:
-
-```typescript
-if (TELEGRAM_BOT_POOL.length > 0) {
-  await initBotPool(TELEGRAM_BOT_POOL);
-}
-```
-
-### Step 5: Update CLAUDE.md Files
-
-#### 5a. Add global message formatting rules
-
-Read `groups/global/CLAUDE.md` and add a Message Formatting section:
-
-```markdown
-## Message Formatting
-
-NEVER use markdown. Only use WhatsApp/Telegram formatting:
-- *single asterisks* for bold (NEVER **double asterisks**)
-- _underscores_ for italic
-- • bullet points
-- ```triple backticks``` for code
-
-No ## headings. No [links](url). No **double stars**.
-```
-
-#### 5b. Update existing group CLAUDE.md headings
-
-In any group CLAUDE.md that has a "WhatsApp Formatting" section (e.g. `groups/main/CLAUDE.md`), rename the heading to reflect multi-channel support:
-
-```
-## WhatsApp Formatting (and other messaging apps)
-```
-
-#### 5c. Add Agent Teams instructions to Telegram groups
-
-For each Telegram group that will use agent teams, create or update its `groups/{folder}/CLAUDE.md` with these instructions. Read the existing CLAUDE.md first (or `groups/global/CLAUDE.md` as a base) and add the Agent Teams section:
-
-```markdown
-## Agent Teams
-
-When creating a team to tackle a complex task, follow these rules:
-
-### CRITICAL: Follow the user's prompt exactly
-
-Create *exactly* the team the user asked for — same number of agents, same roles, same names. Do NOT add extra agents, rename roles, or use generic names like "Researcher 1". If the user says "a marine biologist, a physicist, and Alexander Hamilton", create exactly those three agents with those exact names.
-
-### Team member instructions
-
-Each team member MUST be instructed to:
-
-1. *Share progress in the group* via `mcp__nanoclaw__send_message` with a `sender` parameter matching their exact role/character name (e.g., `sender: "Marine Biologist"` or `sender: "Alexander Hamilton"`). This makes their messages appear from a dedicated bot in the Telegram group.
-2. *Also communicate with teammates* via `SendMessage` as normal for coordination.
-3. Keep group messages *short* — 2-4 sentences max per message. Break longer content into multiple `send_message` calls. No walls of text.
-4. Use the `sender` parameter consistently — always the same name so the bot identity stays stable.
-5. NEVER use markdown formatting. Use ONLY WhatsApp/Telegram formatting: single *asterisks* for bold (NOT **double**), _underscores_ for italic, • for bullets, ```backticks``` for code. No ## headings, no [links](url), no **double asterisks**.
-
-### Example team creation prompt
-
-When creating a teammate, include instructions like:
-
-\```
-You are the Marine Biologist. When you have findings or updates for the user, send them to the group using mcp__nanoclaw__send_message with sender set to "Marine Biologist". Keep each message short (2-4 sentences max). Use emojis for strong reactions. ONLY use single *asterisks* for bold (never **double**), _underscores_ for italic, • for bullets. No markdown. Also communicate with teammates via SendMessage.
-\```
-
-### Lead agent behavior
-
-As the lead agent who created the team:
-
-- You do NOT need to react to or relay every teammate message. The user sees those directly from the teammate bots.
-- Send your own messages only to comment, share thoughts, synthesize, or direct the team.
-- When processing an internal update from a teammate that doesn't need a user-facing response, wrap your *entire* output in `<internal>` tags.
-- Focus on high-level coordination and the final synthesis.
-```
-
-### Step 6: Update Environment
-
-Add pool tokens to `.env`:
-
-```bash
-TELEGRAM_BOT_POOL=TOKEN1,TOKEN2,TOKEN3,...
-```
-
-**Important**: Sync to all required locations:
-
-```bash
-cp .env data/env/env
-```
-
-Also add `TELEGRAM_BOT_POOL` to the launchd plist (`~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist`) in the `EnvironmentVariables` dict if using launchd.
-
-### Step 7: Rebuild and Restart
-
-```bash
-npm run build
-./container/build.sh  # Required — MCP tool changed
-# macOS:
-launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
-launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
-# Linux:
-# systemctl --user restart nanoclaw
-```
-
-Must use `unload/load` (macOS) or `restart` (Linux) because the service env vars changed.
-
-### Step 8: Test
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> Send a message in your Telegram group asking for a multi-agent task, e.g.:
-> "Assemble a team of a researcher and a coder to build me a hello world app"
->
-> You should see:
-> - The lead agent (main bot) acknowledging and creating the team
-> - Each subagent messaging from a different bot, renamed to their role
-> - Short, scannable messages from each agent
->
-> Check logs: `tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log | grep -i pool`
-
-## Architecture Notes
-
-- Pool bots use Grammy's `Api` class — lightweight, no polling, just send
-- Bot names are set via `setMyName` — changes are global to the bot, not per-chat
-- A 2-second delay after `setMyName` allows Telegram to propagate the name change before the first message
-- Sender→bot mapping is stable within a group (keyed as `{groupFolder}:{senderName}`)
-- Mapping resets on service restart — pool bots get reassigned fresh
-- If pool runs out, bots are reused (round-robin wraps)
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Pool bots not sending messages
-
-1. Verify tokens: `curl -s "https://api.telegram.org/botTOKEN/getMe"`
-2. Check pool initialized: `grep "Pool bot" logs/nanoclaw.log`
-3. Ensure all pool bots are members of the Telegram group
-4. Check Group Privacy is disabled for each pool bot
-
-### Bot names not updating
-
-Telegram caches bot names client-side. The 2-second delay after `setMyName` helps, but users may need to restart their Telegram client to see updated names immediately.
-
-### Subagents not using send_message
-
-Check the group's `CLAUDE.md` has the Agent Teams instructions. The lead agent reads this when creating teammates and must include the `send_message` + `sender` instructions in each teammate's prompt.
-
-## Removal
-
-To remove Agent Swarm support while keeping basic Telegram:
-
-1. Remove `TELEGRAM_BOT_POOL` from `src/config.ts`
-2. Remove pool code from `src/telegram.ts` (`poolApis`, `senderBotMap`, `initBotPool`, `sendPoolMessage`)
-3. Remove pool routing from IPC handler in `src/index.ts` (revert to plain `sendMessage`)
-4. Remove `initBotPool` call from `main()`
-5. Remove `sender` param from MCP tool in `container/agent-runner/src/ipc-mcp-stdio.ts`
-6. Remove Agent Teams section from group CLAUDE.md files
-7. Remove `TELEGRAM_BOT_POOL` from `.env`, `data/env/env`, and launchd plist/systemd unit
-8. Rebuild: `npm run build && ./container/build.sh && launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist && launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist` (macOS) or `npm run build && ./container/build.sh && systemctl --user restart nanoclaw` (Linux)

 # Add Telegram Channel
 
-This skill adds Telegram support to NanoClaw, then walks through interactive setup.
+Adds Telegram bot support via the Chat SDK bridge.
 
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
+## Install
 
-### Check if already applied
+NanoClaw doesn't ship channels in trunk. This skill copies the Telegram adapter, its formatting/pairing helpers, their tests, and the `pair-telegram` setup step in from the `channels` branch.
 
-Check if `src/channels/telegram.ts` exists. If it does, skip to Phase 3 (Setup). The code changes are already in place.
+### Pre-flight (idempotent)
 
-### Ask the user
+Skip to **Credentials** if all of these are already in place:
 
-Use `AskUserQuestion` to collect configuration:
+- `src/channels/telegram.ts`, `telegram-pairing.ts`, `telegram-markdown-sanitize.ts` (and their `.test.ts` siblings) all exist
+- `src/channels/index.ts` contains `import './telegram.js';`
+- `setup/pair-telegram.ts` exists and `setup/index.ts`'s `STEPS` map contains `'pair-telegram':`
+- `@chat-adapter/telegram` is listed in `package.json` dependencies
 
-AskUserQuestion: Do you have a Telegram bot token, or do you need to create one?
+Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.
 
-If they have one, collect it now. If not, we'll create one in Phase 3.
-
-## Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
-
-### Ensure channel remote
+### 1. Fetch the channels branch
 
 ```bash
-git remote -v
+git fetch origin channels
 ```
 
-If `telegram` is missing, add it:
+### 2. Copy the adapter, helpers, tests, and setup step
 
 ```bash
-git remote add telegram https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw-telegram.git
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/telegram.ts                        > src/channels/telegram.ts
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/telegram-pairing.ts                > src/channels/telegram-pairing.ts
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/telegram-pairing.test.ts           > src/channels/telegram-pairing.test.ts
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/telegram-markdown-sanitize.ts      > src/channels/telegram-markdown-sanitize.ts
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/telegram-markdown-sanitize.test.ts > src/channels/telegram-markdown-sanitize.test.ts
+git show origin/channels:setup/pair-telegram.ts                          > setup/pair-telegram.ts
 ```
 
-### Merge the skill branch
+### 3. Append the self-registration import
+
+Append to `src/channels/index.ts` (skip if already present):
+
+```typescript
+import './telegram.js';
+```
+
+### 4. Register the setup step
+
+In `setup/index.ts`, add this entry to the `STEPS` map (right after the `register` line is fine; skip if already present):
+
+```typescript
+'pair-telegram': () => import('./pair-telegram.js'),
+```
+
+### 5. Install the adapter package (pinned)
 
 ```bash
-git fetch telegram main
-git merge telegram/main || {
-  git checkout --theirs package-lock.json
-  git add package-lock.json
-  git merge --continue
-}
+pnpm install @chat-adapter/telegram@4.26.0
 ```
 
-This merges in:
-- `src/channels/telegram.ts` (TelegramChannel class with self-registration via `registerChannel`)
-- `src/channels/telegram.test.ts` (unit tests with grammy mock)
-- `import './telegram.js'` appended to the channel barrel file `src/channels/index.ts`
-- `grammy` npm dependency in `package.json`
-- `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN` in `.env.example`
-
-If the merge reports conflicts, resolve them by reading the conflicted files and understanding the intent of both sides.
-
-### Validate code changes
+### 6. Build
 
 ```bash
-npm install
-npm run build
-npx vitest run src/channels/telegram.test.ts
+pnpm run build
 ```
 
-All tests must pass (including the new Telegram tests) and build must be clean before proceeding.
+## Credentials
 
-## Phase 3: Setup
+### Create Telegram Bot
 
-### Create Telegram Bot (if needed)
+1. Open Telegram and search for `@BotFather`
+2. Send `/newbot` and follow the prompts:
+   - Bot name: Something friendly (e.g., "NanoClaw Assistant")
+   - Bot username: Must end with "bot" (e.g., "nanoclaw_bot")
+3. Copy the bot token (looks like `123456:ABC-DEF1234ghIkl-zyx57W2v1u123ew11`)
 
-If the user doesn't have a bot token, tell them:
+**Important for group chats**: By default, Telegram bots only see @mentions and commands in groups. To let the bot see all messages:
 
-> I need you to create a Telegram bot:
->
-> 1. Open Telegram and search for `@BotFather`
-> 2. Send `/newbot` and follow prompts:
->    - Bot name: Something friendly (e.g., "Andy Assistant")
->    - Bot username: Must end with "bot" (e.g., "andy_ai_bot")
-> 3. Copy the bot token (looks like `123456:ABC-DEF1234ghIkl-zyx57W2v1u123ew11`)
-
-Wait for the user to provide the token.
+1. Open `@BotFather` > `/mybots` > select your bot
+2. **Bot Settings** > **Group Privacy** > **Turn off**
 
 ### Configure environment
 
 Add to `.env`:
 
 ```bash
-TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=<their-token>
+TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=your-bot-token
 ```
 
-Channels auto-enable when their credentials are present — no extra configuration needed.
+Sync to container: `mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env`
 
-Sync to container environment:
+## Next Steps
 
-```bash
-mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env
-```
+If you're in the middle of `/setup`, return to the setup flow now.
 
-The container reads environment from `data/env/env`, not `.env` directly.
+Otherwise, run `/manage-channels` to wire this channel to an agent group.
 
-### Disable Group Privacy (for group chats)
+## Channel Info
 
-Tell the user:
-
-> **Important for group chats**: By default, Telegram bots only see @mentions and commands in groups. To let the bot see all messages:
->
-> 1. Open Telegram and search for `@BotFather`
-> 2. Send `/mybots` and select your bot
-> 3. Go to **Bot Settings** > **Group Privacy** > **Turn off**
->
-> This is optional if you only want trigger-based responses via @mentioning the bot.
-
-### Build and restart
-
-```bash
-npm run build
-launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw  # macOS
-# Linux: systemctl --user restart nanoclaw
-```
-
-## Phase 4: Registration
-
-### Get Chat ID
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> 1. Open your bot in Telegram (search for its username)
-> 2. Send `/chatid` — it will reply with the chat ID
-> 3. For groups: add the bot to the group first, then send `/chatid` in the group
-
-Wait for the user to provide the chat ID (format: `tg:123456789` or `tg:-1001234567890`).
-
-### Register the chat
-
-The chat ID, name, and folder name are needed. Use `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step register` with the appropriate flags.
-
-For a main chat (responds to all messages):
-
-```bash
-npx tsx setup/index.ts --step register -- --jid "tg:<chat-id>" --name "<chat-name>" --folder "telegram_main" --trigger "@${ASSISTANT_NAME}" --channel telegram --no-trigger-required --is-main
-```
-
-For additional chats (trigger-only):
-
-```bash
-npx tsx setup/index.ts --step register -- --jid "tg:<chat-id>" --name "<chat-name>" --folder "telegram_<group-name>" --trigger "@${ASSISTANT_NAME}" --channel telegram
-```
-
-## Phase 5: Verify
-
-### Test the connection
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> Send a message to your registered Telegram chat:
-> - For main chat: Any message works
-> - For non-main: `@Andy hello` or @mention the bot
->
-> The bot should respond within a few seconds.
-
-### Check logs if needed
-
-```bash
-tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log
-```
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Bot not responding
-
-Check:
-1. `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN` is set in `.env` AND synced to `data/env/env`
-2. Chat is registered in SQLite (check with: `sqlite3 store/messages.db "SELECT * FROM registered_groups WHERE jid LIKE 'tg:%'"`)
-3. For non-main chats: message includes trigger pattern
-4. Service is running: `launchctl list | grep nanoclaw` (macOS) or `systemctl --user status nanoclaw` (Linux)
-
-### Bot only responds to @mentions in groups
-
-Group Privacy is enabled (default). Fix:
-1. `@BotFather` > `/mybots` > select bot > **Bot Settings** > **Group Privacy** > **Turn off**
-2. Remove and re-add the bot to the group (required for the change to take effect)
-
-### Getting chat ID
-
-If `/chatid` doesn't work:
-- Verify token: `curl -s "https://api.telegram.org/bot${TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN}/getMe"`
-- Check bot is started: `tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log`
-
-## After Setup
-
-If running `npm run dev` while the service is active:
-```bash
-# macOS:
-launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
-npm run dev
-# When done testing:
-launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
-# Linux:
-# systemctl --user stop nanoclaw
-# npm run dev
-# systemctl --user start nanoclaw
-```
-
-## Removal
-
-To remove Telegram integration:
-
-1. Delete `src/channels/telegram.ts` and `src/channels/telegram.test.ts`
-2. Remove `import './telegram.js'` from `src/channels/index.ts`
-3. Remove `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN` from `.env`
-4. Remove Telegram registrations from SQLite: `sqlite3 store/messages.db "DELETE FROM registered_groups WHERE jid LIKE 'tg:%'"`
-5. Uninstall: `npm uninstall grammy`
-6. Rebuild: `npm run build && launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw` (macOS) or `npm run build && systemctl --user restart nanoclaw` (Linux)
+- **type**: `telegram`
+- **terminology**: Telegram calls them "groups" and "chats." A "group" has multiple members; a "chat" is a 1:1 conversation with the bot.
+- **how-to-find-id**: Do NOT ask the user for a chat ID. Telegram registration uses pairing — run `pnpm exec tsx setup/index.ts --step pair-telegram -- --intent <main|wire-to:folder|new-agent:folder>`, show the user the 4-digit `CODE` from the `PAIR_TELEGRAM_ISSUED` block (follow the `REMINDER_TO_ASSISTANT` line in that block), and tell them to send just the 4 digits as a message from the chat they want to register (DM the bot for `main`, post in the group otherwise). In groups with Group Privacy ON, prefix with the bot handle: `@<botname> CODE`. Wrong guesses invalidate the code — if a `PAIR_TELEGRAM_ATTEMPT` block arrives with a mismatched `RECEIVED_CODE`, a `PAIR_TELEGRAM_NEW_CODE` block will follow automatically (up to 5 regenerations); show the new code. On `PAIR_TELEGRAM STATUS=failed ERROR=max-regenerations-exceeded`, ask the user if they want to try again and re-invoke the step — each invocation starts a fresh 5-attempt batch. Success emits `PAIR_TELEGRAM STATUS=success` with `PLATFORM_ID`, `IS_GROUP`, and `ADMIN_USER_ID`. The service must be running for this to work (the polling adapter is what observes the code).
+- **supports-threads**: no
+- **typical-use**: Interactive chat — direct messages or small groups
+- **default-isolation**: Same agent group if you're the only participant across multiple chats. Separate agent group if different people are in different groups.

+---
+
+# Add Vercel
+
+This skill gives NanoClaw agents the ability to deploy web applications to Vercel. It installs the Vercel CLI in agent containers and configures OneCLI to inject Vercel credentials automatically.
+
+**Principle:** Do the work — don't tell the user to do it. Only ask for their input when it genuinely requires manual action (pasting a token).
+
+## Phase 1: Pre-flight
+
+### Check if already applied
+
+Check if the container skill exists:
+
+```bash
+test -d container/skills/vercel-cli && echo "INSTALLED" || echo "NOT_INSTALLED"
+```
+
+If `INSTALLED`, skip to Phase 3 (Configure Credentials).
+
+### Check prerequisites
+
+Verify OneCLI is working (required for credential injection):
+
+```bash
+onecli version 2>/dev/null && echo "ONECLI_OK" || echo "ONECLI_MISSING"
+```
+
+If `ONECLI_MISSING`, tell the user to run `/init-onecli` first, then retry `/add-vercel`. Stop here.
+
+## Phase 2: Install Container Skill
+
+Copy the bundled container skill into the container skills directory:
+
+```bash
+rsync -a .claude/skills/add-vercel/container-skills/ container/skills/
+```
+
+Verify:
+
+```bash
+head -5 container/skills/vercel-cli/SKILL.md
+```
+
+## Phase 3: Configure Credentials
+
+### Check if Vercel credential already exists
+
+```bash
+onecli secrets list 2>/dev/null | grep -i vercel
+```
+
+If a Vercel credential already exists, skip to Phase 4.
+
+### Set up Vercel API credential
+
+The agent needs a Vercel personal access token. Tell the user:
+
+> I need your Vercel personal access token. Go to https://vercel.com/account/tokens and create one with these settings:
+>
+> - **Token name:** `nanoclaw` (or any name you'll recognize)
+> - **Scope:** "Full Account" — the agent needs to create projects, deploy, and manage domains
+> - **Expiration:** "No expiration" recommended (avoids credential rotation), or pick a date if your security policy requires it
+>
+> After creating the token, copy it — you'll only see it once.
+
+Once the user provides the token, add it to OneCLI:
+
+```bash
+onecli secrets create \
+  --name "Vercel API Token" \
+  --type generic \
+  --value "<TOKEN>" \
+  --host-pattern "api.vercel.com" \
+  --header-name "Authorization" \
+  --value-format "Bearer {value}"
+```
+
+Verify:
+
+```bash
+onecli secrets list | grep -i vercel
+```
+
+### Assign the secret to all agents
+
+OneCLI uses selective secret mode — secrets must be explicitly assigned to each agent. Get the Vercel secret ID from the output above, then assign it to every agent:
+
+```bash
+# For each agent, add the Vercel secret to its assigned secrets list.
+# First get current assignments, then set them with the new secret appended.
+VERCEL_SECRET_ID=$(onecli secrets list 2>/dev/null | grep -B2 "Vercel" | grep '"id"' | head -1 | sed 's/.*"id": "//;s/".*//')
+for agent in $(onecli agents list 2>/dev/null | grep '"id"' | sed 's/.*"id": "//;s/".*//'); do
+  CURRENT=$(onecli agents secrets --id "$agent" 2>/dev/null | grep '"' | grep -v hint | grep -v data | sed 's/.*"//;s/".*//' | tr '\n' ',' | sed 's/,$//')
+  onecli agents set-secrets --id "$agent" --secret-ids "${CURRENT:+$CURRENT,}$VERCEL_SECRET_ID"
+done
+```
+
+## Phase 4: Ensure Vercel CLI in Container Image
+
+Check if `vercel` is already in the Dockerfile:
+
+```bash
+grep -q 'vercel' container/Dockerfile && echo "PRESENT" || echo "MISSING"
+```
+
+If `MISSING`, add `vercel` to the global npm install line in `container/Dockerfile`, then rebuild:
+
+```bash
+./container/build.sh
+```
+
+If `PRESENT`, skip — no rebuild needed.
+
+## Phase 5: Sync Skills to Running Agent Groups
+
+Container skills are copied once at group creation and not auto-synced. After installing or updating a container skill, sync it to all existing agent groups:
+
+```bash
+for session_dir in data/v2-sessions/ag-*; do
+  if [ -d "$session_dir/.claude-shared/skills" ]; then
+    rsync -a container/skills/ "$session_dir/.claude-shared/skills/"
+    echo "Synced skills to: $session_dir"
+  fi
+done
+```
+
+## Phase 6: Restart Running Containers
+
+Stop all running agent containers so they pick up the new skills on next wake:
+
+```bash
+docker ps --format "{{.ID}} {{.Names}}" | grep nanoclaw-v2 | awk '{print $1}' | xargs -r docker stop
+```
+
+## Done
+
+The agent can now deploy web applications to Vercel. Key commands:
+
+- `vercel deploy --yes --prod --token placeholder` — deploy to production
+- `vercel ls --token placeholder` — list deployments
+- `vercel whoami --token placeholder` — check auth
+
+For the full command reference, the agent has the `vercel-cli` container skill loaded automatically.

+description: Deploy apps to Vercel. Use when asked to deploy, ship, or publish a web application, or manage Vercel projects, domains, and environment variables.
+---
+
+# Vercel CLI
+
+You can deploy web applications to Vercel using the `vercel` CLI.
+
+## Auth
+
+Auth is handled by OneCLI — the HTTPS_PROXY injects the real token into API requests automatically. The Vercel CLI requires a token to be present to skip its local credential check, so **always pass `--token placeholder`** on every command. OneCLI replaces this with the real token at the proxy level.
+
+Before any Vercel operation, verify auth:
+
+```bash
+vercel whoami --token placeholder
+```
+
+If this fails with an auth error, ask the user to add a Vercel token to OneCLI. They can create one at https://vercel.com/account/tokens and register it via `onecli secrets create` on the host. Once added, retry `vercel whoami`.
+
+## Deploying
+
+Always use `--yes` to skip interactive prompts and `--token placeholder` for auth (OneCLI replaces with real token).
+
+```bash
+# Deploy to production
+vercel deploy --yes --prod --token placeholder
+
+# Deploy from a specific directory
+vercel deploy --yes --prod --token placeholder --cwd /path/to/project
+
+# Preview deployment (not production)
+vercel deploy --yes --token placeholder
+```
+
+After deploying, verify the live URL:
+
+```bash
+# Check deployment status
+vercel inspect <deployment-url> --token placeholder
+```
+
+## Pre-Send Checks (do this before sharing the URL)
+
+Don't send the deployment URL to the user until you've confirmed it's actually working. At minimum:
+
+1. **Local build passes** — run `npm run build` (or the project's build command) before `vercel deploy`. If the build fails locally, fix it first; don't deploy broken code.
+2. **Deployment succeeded** — the `vercel deploy` output shows a "Production: https://..." URL and the status is READY (confirm with `vercel inspect`).
+3. **Live URL responds** — `curl -sI <url> | head -1` should return `HTTP/2 200` (or another 2xx/3xx). A 404/500 means something's broken even though Vercel reported success.
+4. **Optional visual check** — if `agent-browser` is loaded, open the URL and eyeball it. Helpful for catching broken layouts that a 200 response wouldn't reveal.
+
+If any check fails, fix the issue and redeploy before reporting to the user.
+
+## Project Management
+
+```bash
+# Link to an existing Vercel project (non-interactive)
+vercel link --yes --token placeholder
+
+# List recent deployments
+vercel ls --token placeholder
+
+# List all projects
+vercel project ls --token placeholder
+```
+
+## Domains
+
+```bash
+# List domains
+vercel domains ls --token placeholder
+
+# Add a domain to the current project
+vercel domains add example.com --token placeholder
+```
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+```bash
+# Pull env vars from Vercel to local .env
+vercel env pull --token placeholder
+
+# Add an env var (use echo to pipe the value — avoids interactive prompt)
+echo "value" | vercel env add VAR_NAME production --token placeholder
+```
+
+## Common Errors
+
+| Error | Fix |
+|-------|-----|
+| `Error: No framework detected` | Ensure the project has a `package.json` with a `build` script, or set the framework in `vercel.json` |
+| `Error: Rate limited` | Wait and retry. Don't loop — report to user |
+| `Error: You have reached your project limit` | User needs to upgrade Vercel plan or delete unused projects |
+| `ENOTFOUND api.vercel.com` | Network issue. Check proxy connectivity |
+| Auth error after `vercel whoami` | Credential may be expired. Ask the user to refresh the Vercel token in OneCLI |
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Run `npm run build` locally before deploying to catch build errors early
+- Use `--cwd` instead of `cd` to keep your working directory stable
+- For Next.js projects, `vercel deploy` auto-detects the framework — no extra config needed
+- Use `vercel.json` only when you need custom build settings, rewrites, or headers

-# Add Voice Transcription
-
-This skill adds automatic voice message transcription to NanoClaw's WhatsApp channel using OpenAI's Whisper API. When a voice note arrives, it is downloaded, transcribed, and delivered to the agent as `[Voice: <transcript>]`.
-
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
-
-### Check if already applied
-
-Check if `src/transcription.ts` exists. If it does, skip to Phase 3 (Configure). The code changes are already in place.
-
-### Ask the user

-
-If yes, collect it now. If no, direct them to create one at https://platform.openai.com/api-keys.
-
-## Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
-
-**Prerequisite:** WhatsApp must be installed first (`skill/whatsapp` merged). This skill modifies WhatsApp channel files.

-> Cost: ~$0.006 per minute of audio (~$0.003 per typical 30-second voice note)
-
-Wait for the user to provide the key.
-
-### Add to environment
-
-Add to `.env`:
-
-```bash
-OPENAI_API_KEY=<their-key>
-```
-
-Sync to container environment:
-
-```bash
-mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env
-```
-
-The container reads environment from `data/env/env`, not `.env` directly.
-
-### Build and restart
-
-```bash
-npm run build
-launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw  # macOS
-# Linux: systemctl --user restart nanoclaw
-```
-
-## Phase 4: Verify
-
-### Test with a voice note
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> Send a voice note in any registered WhatsApp chat. The agent should receive it as `[Voice: <transcript>]` and respond to its content.
-
-### Check logs if needed
-
-```bash
-tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log | grep -i voice
-```
-
-Look for:
-- `Transcribed voice message` — successful transcription with character count
-- `OPENAI_API_KEY not set` — key missing from `.env`
-- `OpenAI transcription failed` — API error (check key validity, billing)
-- `Failed to download audio message` — media download issue
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Voice notes show "[Voice Message - transcription unavailable]"
-
-1. Check `OPENAI_API_KEY` is set in `.env` AND synced to `data/env/env`
-2. Verify key works: `curl -s https://api.openai.com/v1/models -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" | head -c 200`
-3. Check OpenAI billing — Whisper requires a funded account
-
-### Voice notes show "[Voice Message - transcription failed]"
-
-Check logs for the specific error. Common causes:
-- Network timeout — transient, will work on next message
-- Invalid API key — regenerate at https://platform.openai.com/api-keys
-- Rate limiting — wait and retry
-
-### Agent doesn't respond to voice notes
-
-Verify the chat is registered and the agent is running. Voice transcription only runs for registered groups.

+
+## Next Steps
+
+If you're in the middle of `/setup`, return to the setup flow now.
+
+Otherwise, run `/manage-channels` to wire this channel to an agent group.
+
+## Channel Info
+
+- **type**: `webex`
+- **terminology**: Webex has "spaces." A space can be a group conversation or a 1:1 direct message with the bot.
+- **how-to-find-id**: Open the space in Webex, click the space name > Settings — the Space ID is listed there. Or use the Webex API (`GET /rooms`) to list spaces and their IDs.
+- **supports-threads**: yes
+- **typical-use**: Interactive chat — team spaces or direct messages
+- **default-isolation**: Same agent group for spaces where you're the primary user. Separate agent group for spaces with different teams or sensitive information.

+name: add-wechat
+description: Add WeChat (personal) channel integration via Tencent's official iLink Bot API. Uses long-polling and QR scan — no webhook, no ToS risk, no paid token.
+---
+
+# Add WeChat Channel
+
+Adds WeChat support via **iLink Bot API** — the first-party Tencent API for personal WeChat bots (different from WeCom / Official Account).
+
+**Why this is different from wechaty/PadLocal:**
+
+- Official Tencent API — no ToS violation, no ban risk
+- Free — no PadLocal token required
+- No public webhook URL needed — uses long-poll
+- Works with any personal WeChat account
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- A **personal WeChat account** with the mobile app installed
+- A phone to scan the QR code for login
+- Node.js >= 20 (already required by NanoClaw)
+
+## Install
+
+NanoClaw doesn't ship channels in trunk. This skill copies the WeChat adapter in from the `channels` branch.
+
+### Pre-flight (idempotent)
+
+Skip to **Credentials** if all of these are already in place:
+
+- `src/channels/wechat.ts` exists
+- `src/channels/index.ts` contains `import './wechat.js';`
+- `wechat-ilink-client` is listed in `package.json` dependencies
+
+Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.
+
+### 1. Fetch the channels branch
+
+```bash
+git fetch origin channels
+```
+
+### 2. Copy the adapter
+
+```bash
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/wechat.ts > src/channels/wechat.ts
+```
+
+### 3. Append the self-registration import
+
+Append to `src/channels/index.ts` (skip if the line is already present):
+
+```typescript
+import './wechat.js';
+```
+
+### 4. Install the library (pinned)
+
+```bash
+pnpm install wechat-ilink-client@0.1.0
+```
+
+### 5. Build
+
+```bash
+pnpm run build
+```
+
+## Credentials
+
+Unlike most channels, WeChat requires **no pre-configured API keys**. Auth happens via QR code scan from your phone.
+
+### 1. Enable the channel
+
+Add to `.env`:
+
+```bash
+WECHAT_ENABLED=true
+```
+
+Sync to container: `mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env`
+
+### 2. Start the service and scan the QR
+
+Restart NanoClaw:
+
+```bash
+systemctl --user restart nanoclaw   # Linux
+# or
+launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw   # macOS
+```
+
+The adapter will print a **QR URL** to the logs and save it to `data/wechat/qr.txt`:
+
+```bash
+tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log | grep WeChat
+# or
+cat data/wechat/qr.txt
+```
+
+Open the URL in a browser (it renders a QR code), then:
+
+1. Open WeChat on your phone
+2. Use its built-in QR scanner (top-right "+" → Scan)
+3. Approve the authorization on your phone
+4. Auth credentials are saved to `data/wechat/auth.json` — do not commit this file
+
+The bot is now connected as your WeChat account.
+
+## Wire your first DM
+
+A successful QR login alone isn't enough — the adapter still needs to be wired to an agent group before it can respond.
+
+### 1. Trigger the first inbound message
+
+Have a different WeChat account send a message to the bot account. This auto-creates a `messaging_groups` row with the sender's `platform_id`.
+
+### 2. Run the wire script
+
+```bash
+pnpm exec tsx .claude/skills/add-wechat/scripts/wire-dm.ts
+```
+
+Interactive flow: the script lists all unwired WeChat messaging groups, asks which agent group to wire it to, and creates the `messaging_group_agents` row with sensible defaults (sender policy `request_approval`, session mode `shared`).
+
+With `request_approval`, the next DM from the stranger fires an approval card to the admin — admin taps Approve/Deny, approved users are added as members and their queued message replays through the agent.
+
+Non-interactive:
+
+```bash
+pnpm exec tsx .claude/skills/add-wechat/scripts/wire-dm.ts \
+  --platform-id wechat:wxid_xxxxx \
+  --agent-group ag-xxxxx \
+  --non-interactive
+```
+
+Flags:
+
+- `--platform-id <id>` — wire a specific messaging group (default: most recent unwired)
+- `--agent-group <id>` — target agent group (default: prompt; or solo admin group in non-interactive)
+- `--sender-policy public|strict|request_approval` — default `request_approval` (fires an admin approval card on unknown-sender DMs)
+- `--session-mode shared|per-thread` — default `shared`
+
+### 3. Test
+
+Have the sender message the bot again — the agent should respond.
+
+## Operational notes
+
+- **Only one instance can use a given token at a time.** Don't run multiple NanoClaw instances pointing to the same `data/wechat/auth.json`.
+- **Re-login on session expiry:** if you see `WeChat: session expired` in logs, delete `data/wechat/auth.json` and restart — you'll be asked to re-scan.
+- **Sync cursor persistence:** `data/wechat/sync-buf.txt` holds the long-poll cursor. Deleting it replays recent history on next start; don't delete it in normal operation.
+- **Account safety:** this uses the official Tencent API, so account bans for bot automation aren't a risk. That said, don't spam — normal rate limits still apply.
+
+## Next Steps
+
+If you're in the middle of `/setup`, return to the setup flow now.
+
+Otherwise, restart the service to pick up the new channel and wiring.
+
+## Channel Info
+
+- **type**: `wechat`
+- **terminology**: WeChat has "contacts" (DMs) and "group chats" (rooms). Each DM or group is a separate messaging group.
+- **how-to-find-id**: Send a message to the bot from the target account; the adapter auto-creates a messaging group and logs `WeChat inbound platformId=wechat:<id>`. Use `wechat:<user_id>` for DMs, `wechat:<group_id>` for rooms.
+- **admin-user-id**: The operator's WeChat user_id (for `init-first-agent.ts --admin-user-id`) is saved to `data/wechat/auth.json` as `operatorUserId` after the QR scan. Read it with `cat data/wechat/auth.json | jq -r .operatorUserId` and prefix with `wechat:` (i.e. `wechat:<operatorUserId>`).
+- **supports-threads**: no (WeChat has no reply threads)
+- **typical-use**: Long-poll — the adapter holds a persistent connection to Tencent's iLink API and receives messages in real time. No webhook URL needed.
+- **default-isolation**: `shared` session mode per messaging group (DM or room). Use `strict` sender policy if you want only specific users to reach the agent; `public` opens it to anyone who messages the bot.
+- **post-install-wiring**: Use the `wire-dm.ts` helper (see the "Wire your first DM" section above) if running this skill standalone. If running as part of `bash nanoclaw.sh`, `init-first-agent.ts` handles wiring — just pass the `platform-id` and `admin-user-id` captured above.

+- `@chat-adapter/whatsapp` is listed in `package.json` dependencies
+
+Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.
+
+### 1. Fetch the channels branch
+
+```bash
+git fetch origin channels

+
+## Credentials
+
+1. Go to [Meta for Developers](https://developers.facebook.com/apps/) and create an app (type: Business).
+2. Add the **WhatsApp** product.
+3. Go to **WhatsApp** > **API Setup**:
+   - Note the **Phone Number ID** (not the phone number itself).
+   - Generate a **permanent System User access token** with `whatsapp_business_messaging` permission.
+4. Go to **WhatsApp** > **Configuration**:
+   - Set webhook URL: `https://your-domain/webhook/whatsapp`.
+   - Set a **Verify Token** (any random string you choose).
+   - Subscribe to webhook fields: `messages`.
+5. Copy the **App Secret** from **Settings** > **Basic**.

+- **terminology**: WhatsApp Cloud API supports 1:1 conversations only (no group chats). Each conversation is with a phone number.
+- **how-to-find-id**: The platform ID is the Phone Number ID from the Meta Business dashboard (not the phone number itself). Find it under WhatsApp > API Setup.
+- **supports-threads**: no
+- **typical-use**: Interactive 1:1 chat -- direct messages only
+- **default-isolation**: Same agent group if you're the only person messaging the bot. Each additional person who messages gets their own conversation automatically, but they share the agent's workspace and memory -- use a separate agent group if you need information isolation between different contacts.

 # Add WhatsApp Channel
 
-This skill adds WhatsApp support to NanoClaw. It installs the WhatsApp channel code, dependencies, and guides through authentication, registration, and configuration.
+Adds WhatsApp support via the native Baileys adapter (no Chat SDK bridge).
 
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
+## Install
+
+NanoClaw doesn't ship channels in trunk. This skill copies the native WhatsApp (Baileys) adapter and its `whatsapp-auth` setup step in from the `channels` branch. No Chat SDK bridge.
+
+### Pre-flight (idempotent)
+
+Skip to **Credentials** if all of these are already in place:
+
+- `src/channels/whatsapp.ts` exists
+- `src/channels/index.ts` contains `import './whatsapp.js';`
+- `setup/whatsapp-auth.ts` and `setup/groups.ts` both exist
+- `setup/index.ts`'s `STEPS` map contains both `'whatsapp-auth':` and `groups:`
+- `@whiskeysockets/baileys`, `qrcode`, `pino` are listed in `package.json` dependencies
+
+Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.
+
+### 1. Fetch the channels branch
+
+```bash
+git fetch origin channels
+```
+
+### 2. Copy the adapter and setup steps
+
+```bash
+git show origin/channels:src/channels/whatsapp.ts > src/channels/whatsapp.ts
+git show origin/channels:setup/whatsapp-auth.ts   > setup/whatsapp-auth.ts
+git show origin/channels:setup/groups.ts          > setup/groups.ts
+```
+
+### 3. Append the self-registration import
+
+Append to `src/channels/index.ts` (skip if already present):
+
+```typescript
+import './whatsapp.js';
+```
+
+### 4. Register the setup steps
+
+In `setup/index.ts`, add these entries to the `STEPS` map (skip lines already present):
+
+```typescript
+groups: () => import('./groups.js'),
+'whatsapp-auth': () => import('./whatsapp-auth.js'),
+```
+
+### 5. Install the adapter packages (pinned)
+
+```bash
+pnpm install @whiskeysockets/baileys@6.17.16 qrcode@1.5.4 @types/qrcode@1.5.6 pino@9.6.0
+```
+
+### 6. Build
+
+```bash
+pnpm run build
+```
+
+## Credentials
+
+WhatsApp uses linked-device authentication — no API key, just a one-time pairing from your phone.
 
 ### Check current state
 
-Check if WhatsApp is already configured. If `store/auth/` exists with credential files, skip to Phase 4 (Registration) or Phase 5 (Verify).
+Check if WhatsApp is already authenticated. If `store/auth/creds.json` exists, skip to "Shared vs dedicated number".
 
 ```bash
-ls store/auth/creds.json 2>/dev/null && echo "WhatsApp auth exists" || echo "No WhatsApp auth"

----
-
-# Channel Formatting
-
-This skill wires channel-aware Markdown conversion into the outbound pipeline so Claude's
-responses render natively on each platform — no more literal `**asterisks**` in WhatsApp or
-Telegram.
-
-| Channel | Transformation |
-|---------|---------------|
-| WhatsApp | `**bold**` → `*bold*`, `*italic*` → `_italic_`, headings → bold, links → `text (url)` |
-| Telegram | same as WhatsApp, but `[text](url)` links are preserved (Markdown v1 renders them natively) |
-| Slack | same as WhatsApp, but links become `<url\|text>` |
-| Discord | passthrough (Discord already renders Markdown) |
-| Signal | passthrough for `parseTextStyles`; `parseSignalStyles` in `src/text-styles.ts` produces plain text + native `textStyle` ranges for use by the Signal skill |
-
-Code blocks (fenced and inline) are always protected — their content is never transformed.
-
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
-
-### Check if already applied
-
-```bash
-test -f src/text-styles.ts && echo "already applied" || echo "not yet applied"
-```
-
-If `already applied`, skip to Phase 3 (Verify).
-
-## Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
-
-### Ensure the upstream remote
-
-```bash
-git remote -v
-```
-
-If an `upstream` remote pointing to `https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw.git` is missing,
-add it:
-
-```bash
-git remote add upstream https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw.git
-```
-
-### Merge the skill branch
-
-```bash
-git fetch upstream skill/channel-formatting
-git merge upstream/skill/channel-formatting
-```
-
-If there are merge conflicts on `package-lock.json`, resolve them by accepting the incoming
-version and continuing:
-
-```bash
-git checkout --theirs package-lock.json
-git add package-lock.json
-git merge --continue
-```
-
-For any other conflict, read the conflicted file and reconcile both sides manually.
-
-This merge adds:
-
-- `src/text-styles.ts` — `parseTextStyles(text, channel)` for marker substitution and
-  `parseSignalStyles(text)` for Signal native rich text
-- `src/router.ts` — `formatOutbound` gains an optional `channel` parameter; when provided
-  it calls `parseTextStyles` after stripping `<internal>` tags
-- `src/index.ts` — both outbound `sendMessage` paths pass `channel.name` to `formatOutbound`
-- `src/formatting.test.ts` — test coverage for both functions across all channels
-
-### Validate
-
-```bash
-npm install
-npm run build
-npx vitest run src/formatting.test.ts
-```
-
-All 73 tests should pass and the build should be clean before continuing.
-

-### Rebuild and restart
-
-```bash
-npm run build
-launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw   # macOS
-# Linux: systemctl --user restart nanoclaw
-```
-
-### Spot-check formatting
-
-Send a message through any registered WhatsApp or Telegram chat that will trigger a
-response from Claude. Ask something that will produce formatted output, such as:
-
-> Summarise the three main advantages of TypeScript using bullet points and **bold** headings.
-
-Confirm that the response arrives with native bold (`*text*`) rather than raw double
-asterisks.
-
-### Check logs if needed
-
-```bash
-tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log
-```
-
-## Signal Skill Integration
-
-If you have the Signal skill installed, `src/channels/signal.ts` can import
-`parseSignalStyles` from the newly present `src/text-styles.ts`:
-
-```typescript
-import { parseSignalStyles, SignalTextStyle } from '../text-styles.js';
-```
-
-`parseSignalStyles` returns `{ text: string, textStyle: SignalTextStyle[] }` where
-`textStyle` is an array of `{ style, start, length }` objects suitable for the
-`signal-cli` JSON-RPC `textStyles` parameter (format: `"start:length:STYLE"`).

+description: Walk the operator through creating the first NanoClaw agent for a DM channel — resolve the operator's channel identity, wire the DM messaging group to a new agent, and trigger a welcome DM via the normal delivery path. Use after channel credentials are configured and the service is running.
+---
+
+# Init First Agent
+
+Stand up the first NanoClaw agent for a channel and verify end-to-end delivery by having the agent DM the operator. Everything the skill does is idempotent — rerunning is safe.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Service running.** Check: `launchctl list | grep nanoclaw` (macOS) or `systemctl --user status nanoclaw` (Linux). If stopped, tell the user to run `/setup` first.
+- **Target channel installed.** At least one `/add-<channel>` skill has run, credentials are in `.env`, and the adapter is uncommented in `src/channels/index.ts`.
+- **Adapter connected.** Tail `logs/nanoclaw.log` — look for a recent `channel setup` / `adapter connected` line for the target channel.
+
+## 1. Pick the channel
+
+Read `src/channels/index.ts` to find enabled channels (uncommented imports). Cross-check `.env` for the relevant credentials.
+
+AskUserQuestion: "Which channel should host the welcome DM?" with one option per enabled channel (Discord, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, Webex, Teams, Google Chat, Matrix, iMessage, Resend, …).
+
+Record the choice as `CHANNEL` (lowercase, e.g. `discord`).
+
+## 2. Ask for the operator's identity
+
+Read the channel's own skill for its `## Channel Info > how-to-find-id` section (e.g. `.claude/skills/add-discord/SKILL.md`, `.claude/skills/add-telegram/SKILL.md`). Show those instructions to the user in plain text.
+
+Then ask in plain text (NOT `AskUserQuestion` — these are free-form):
+
+1. **Your user id on this channel** — e.g. a Discord user ID, Telegram user ID, Slack user ID. Record as `USER_HANDLE`.
+2. **Your display name** — human name, used to name the agent group (`dm-with-<normalized>`) and as the welcome-message addressee. Record as `DISPLAY_NAME`.
+3. **Agent persona name** — the assistant's display name. Default: `DISPLAY_NAME`. Record as `AGENT_NAME`.
+
+## 3. Resolve the DM platform id
+
+This depends on whether the channel supports cold DM via `adapter.openDM`.
+
+**Channels without cold DM (direct-addressable): telegram, whatsapp, imessage, matrix, resend.** The user handle doubles as the DM chat id. Set:
+
+```
+PLATFORM_ID=${CHANNEL}:${USER_HANDLE}
+```
+
+Skip to step 4.
+
+**Channels with cold DM (resolution-required): discord, slack, teams, webex, gchat.** The bot can DM cold at runtime via Chat SDK, but this skill runs standalone — it can't call the adapter. Two resolutions:
+
+### 3a. User DMs the bot once (Discord / Slack / Teams / Webex / gChat)
+
+Tell the user:
+
+> Send any single message to the bot as a DM from your account on `${CHANNEL}`. The router will record the DM as a messaging group. Reply `done` here when you've sent the message.
+
+Wait for the user's confirmation. Then look up the most recent DM messaging groups:
+
+```bash
+sqlite3 data/v2.db "SELECT id, platform_id, name, created_at FROM messaging_groups WHERE channel_type='${CHANNEL}' AND is_group=0 ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 5"
+```
+
+Show the top rows to the user and confirm which `platform_id` is theirs (usually the most recent). Record as `PLATFORM_ID`. If none appeared, check `logs/nanoclaw.log` for `unknown_sender` drops — the adapter might be rejecting inbound due to connection or permission issues.
+
+### 3b. Telegram pair-code path (if the user prefers not to DM first)
+
+For Telegram only, there's an existing pair-code primitive. When you run this tool, take the output and extract the pairing code. Then show it to the user in plain text and ask the user to send the code in the Telegram chat to complete the pairing.
+
+```bash
+npx tsx setup/index.ts --step pair-telegram -- --intent new-agent:dm-with-<folder>
+```
+
+Parse the `PAIR_TELEGRAM_ISSUED` status block for `CODE` and follow the `REMINDER_TO_ASSISTANT` line in that block. Then wait for the `PAIR_TELEGRAM` block — read `PLATFORM_ID` and `PAIRED_USER_ID` from it. telegram.ts's interceptor has already upserted the user and granted owner if none existed yet. Use `PLATFORM_ID` and `PAIRED_USER_ID` directly in step 4.
+
+## 4. Run the init script
+
+```bash
+npx tsx scripts/init-first-agent.ts \
+  --channel "${CHANNEL}" \
+  --user-id "${CHANNEL}:${USER_HANDLE}" \
+  --platform-id "${PLATFORM_ID}" \
+  --display-name "${DISPLAY_NAME}" \
+  --agent-name "${AGENT_NAME}"
+```
+
+Add `--welcome "System instruction: ..."` to override the default welcome prompt.
+
+The script:
+1. Upserts the `users` row and grants `owner` role if no owner exists.
+2. Creates the `agent_groups` row and calls `initGroupFilesystem` at `groups/dm-with-<name>/`.
+3. Reuses or creates the DM `messaging_groups` row.
+4. Wires them via `messaging_group_agents` (which auto-creates the companion `agent_destinations` row).
+5. Hands the welcome message to the running service via its CLI socket (`data/cli.sock`), targeting the DM messaging group. The service routes it into the DM session, which wakes the container synchronously. If the socket isn't reachable (service down), falls back to a direct `inbound.db` write that the next host sweep picks up.
+
+Show the script's output to the user.
+
+## 5. Verify
+
+The welcome DM is queued synchronously; the only wait is container cold-start (~60s on first launch) before the agent processes the message and the reply flows through `outbound.db` to the channel.
+
+Do not tail the log or poll in a sleep loop. Ask the user in plain text:
+
+> The welcome DM should arrive shortly. Let me know when you've received it (or if it doesn't arrive within two minutes).
+
+Wait for the user's reply. If they confirm receipt, the skill is done.
+
+If they say it didn't arrive, then diagnose using the DB directly (no waiting loops required — the message either delivered or it didn't):
+
+- `sqlite3 data/v2-sessions/<agent-group-id>/sessions/<session-id>/outbound.db "SELECT id, status, created_at FROM messages_out ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 5"` — check for stuck `pending` rows. Replace `<agent-group-id>` and `<session-id>` with the values from the script's output.
+- `grep -E 'Unauthorized channel destination|container.*exited|error' logs/nanoclaw.log | tail -20` — look for ACL rejections or container crashes.
+- `ls data/v2-sessions/<agent-group-id>/sessions/*/outbound.db` — confirm the session exists.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**"Missing required args"** — the script wants `--channel`, `--user-id`, `--platform-id`, `--display-name` at minimum. Re-check the command you assembled.
+
+**No `messaging_groups` row appears after the user DMs (step 3a)** — the router silently drops messages from unknown senders under `strict` policy but still creates the `messaging_groups` row. If the row is missing entirely, the adapter isn't receiving the inbound message. Check `logs/nanoclaw.log` for adapter errors (auth, gateway disconnect, rate limit).
+
+**Owner already exists** — `hasAnyOwner()` returned true, so the grant is skipped silently. That's fine; the script still creates the agent and wiring. Reassigning ownership needs a separate flow (not this skill).
+
+**Wrong person got the welcome DM** — the `--platform-id` you passed is someone else's DM channel. Rerun with the correct one; the script is idempotent on user/messaging-group/agent-group but writes a new session welcome each run.
+
+**Agent group name collision** — if `dm-with-<display-name>` already exists (e.g. rerunning with the same display name), the script reuses it. Pass a different `--display-name` to get a distinct folder.

+name: manage-channels
+description: Wire channels to agent groups, manage isolation levels, add new channel groups. Use after adding a channel, during setup, or standalone to reconfigure.
+---
+
+# Manage Channels
+
+Wire messaging channels to agent groups. See `docs/isolation-model.md` for the full isolation model.
+
+Privilege is a **user-level** concept, not a channel-level one (see `src/db/user-roles.ts`, `src/access.ts`). There is no "main channel" / "main group" — any user can be granted `owner` or `admin` (global or scoped to an agent group) via `grantRole()`, and messages from unknown senders are gated per-messaging-group by `unknown_sender_policy` (`strict` | `request_approval` | `public`).
+
+## Assess Current State
+
+Read the central DB (`data/v2.db`) — query `agent_groups`, `messaging_groups`, `messaging_group_agents`, `users`, and `user_roles` tables. Also check `.env` for channel tokens and `src/channels/index.ts` for uncommented imports.
+
+Categorize channels as: **wired** (has DB entities + messaging_group_agents row), **configured but unwired** (has credentials + barrel import, no DB entities), or **not configured**.
+
+If the instance has no owner yet (`SELECT COUNT(*) FROM user_roles WHERE role='owner' AND agent_group_id IS NULL` returns 0), tell the user they should run `/init-first-agent` first — it stands up the first agent group, promotes the operator to owner, and verifies delivery end-to-end by having the agent DM them. Then return here for any additional channels/groups.
+
+## First Channel (No Agent Groups Exist)
+
+**Delegate to `/init-first-agent`.** It handles: channel choice, operator identity lookup, DM platform id resolution (with cold-DM or pair-code fallback), agent group creation, wiring, and the welcome DM. Return here afterward for any additional channels.
+
+## Wire New Channel
+
+For each unwired channel:
+
+1. Read its SKILL.md `## Channel Info` for terminology, how-to-find-id, typical-use, and default-isolation
+2. Ask for the platform ID using the platform's terminology
+3. Ask the isolation question (see below)
+4. Register with the appropriate flags
+
+### Isolation Question
+
+Present a multiple-choice with a contextual recommendation. The three options:
+
+- **Same conversation** (`--session-mode "agent-shared"` + existing folder) — all messages land in one session. Recommend for webhook + chat combos (GitHub + Slack).
+- **Same agent, separate conversations** (`--session-mode "shared"` + existing folder) — shared workspace/memory, independent threads. Recommend for same user across platforms.
+- **Separate agent** (new `--folder`) — full isolation. Recommend when different people are involved.
+
+Use the channel's `typical-use` and `default-isolation` fields to pick the recommendation. Offer to explain more if the user is unsure — reference `docs/isolation-model.md` for the detailed explanation.
+
+### Register Command
+
+```bash
+pnpm exec tsx setup/index.ts --step register -- \
+  --platform-id "<id>" --name "<name>" \
+  --folder "<folder>" --channel "<type>" \
+  --session-mode "<shared|agent-shared|per-thread>" \
+  --assistant-name "<name>"
+```
+
+The `register` step creates the agent group (reusing it if the folder already exists), the messaging group, and the wiring row. `createMessagingGroupAgent` auto-creates the companion `agent_destinations` row so the agent can address the channel by name — no separate destination step needed.
+
+For separate agents, also ask for a folder name and optionally a different assistant name.
+
+## Add Channel Group
+
+When adding another group/chat on an already-configured platform (e.g. a second Telegram group):
+
+1. **Telegram:** ask the isolation question first to determine intent (`wire-to:<folder>` for an existing agent, `new-agent:<folder>` for a fresh one). Run `pnpm exec tsx setup/index.ts --step pair-telegram -- --intent <intent>`, show the CODE (follow the `REMINDER_TO_ASSISTANT` line in the `PAIR_TELEGRAM_ISSUED` block) and tell the user to post `@<botname> CODE` in the target group (or DM the bot for a private chat). Wait for the `PAIR_TELEGRAM` block. The inbound interceptor has already created the `messaging_groups` row with `unknown_sender_policy = 'strict'` and upserted the paired user — `register` only needs to add the wiring:
+
+   ```bash
+   pnpm exec tsx setup/index.ts --step register -- \
+     --platform-id "<PLATFORM_ID>" --name "<group-name>" \
+     --folder "<folder>" --channel "telegram" \
+     --session-mode "<shared|agent-shared|per-thread>" \
+     --assistant-name "<name>"
+   ```
+
+2. **Other channels:** read the channel's SKILL.md `## Channel Info` for terminology and how-to-find-id. Ask for the new group/chat ID, ask the isolation question, then register. No package or credential changes needed.
+
+## Change Wiring
+
+1. Show current wiring (agent_groups × messaging_group_agents)
+2. Ask which channel to move and to which agent group
+3. Delete the old `messaging_group_agents` entry, create a new one
+4. Note: existing sessions stay with the old agent group; new messages route to the new one. The `agent_destinations` row created for the old wiring is NOT automatically removed — if you want the old agent to stop seeing the channel as a named target, delete it from `agent_destinations` manually.
+
+## Show Configuration
+
+Display a readable summary showing:
+
+- **Agent groups** with their wired channels (from `messaging_group_agents`)
+- **Configured-but-unwired** channels (credentials present, no DB entities)
+- **Unconfigured** channels
+- **Privileged users**: `SELECT user_id, role, agent_group_id FROM user_roles ORDER BY role='owner' DESC`

+- `sessionTarget:"isolated"` → `context_mode:"isolated"`, `sessionTarget:"main"` or `"current"` → `context_mode:"group"`
+
+## What Doesn't Map
+
+- `delivery.mode:"webhook"` — NanoClaw has no webhook delivery. Discuss with the user: this could be implemented as a task `script` that runs `curl` to hit the webhook endpoint.
+- `failureAlert` — NanoClaw has no failure alert system. Note this to the user.
+- `wakeMode` — NanoClaw tasks always wake the agent immediately.
+- `payload.model`, `payload.thinking`, `payload.timeoutSeconds` — NanoClaw doesn't support per-task model/thinking config. These are handled by the SDK.
+- `deleteAfterRun` — NanoClaw `"once"` tasks are marked `"completed"` after running, not deleted.
+
+## For Each Enabled Job
+
+1. Show what it does: name, schedule, prompt, delivery mode
+2. Explain any differences (no retry config, no webhook delivery, no failure alerts)
+3. If `delivery.mode:"webhook"`: discuss with the user — a task `script` with `curl` often suffices
+4. Ask if they want to keep this task
+
+## Inserting Tasks
+
+Insert directly into the SQLite database. This requires groups to be registered first (Phase 1). Use the registered group's `folder` and `chat_jid`:
+
+```bash
+pnpm exec tsx -e "
+const Database = require('better-sqlite3');
+const { CronExpressionParser } = require('cron-parser');
+const db = new Database('store/messages.db');
+// Compute next_run for cron tasks:
+// const interval = CronExpressionParser.parse('<expr>', { tz: process.env.TZ || 'UTC' });
+// const nextRun = interval.next().toISOString();
+db.prepare(\`INSERT INTO scheduled_tasks (id, group_folder, chat_jid, prompt, script, schedule_type, schedule_value, context_mode, next_run, status, created_at) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)\`).run(
+  'migrated-<original-id>',
+  '<group_folder>',
+  '<chat_jid>',
+  '<mapped prompt>',
+  null,
+  '<mapped schedule_type>',
+  '<mapped schedule_value>',
+  '<mapped context_mode>',
+  '<computed next_run ISO>',
+  'active',
+  new Date().toISOString()
+);
+db.close();
+"
+```
+
+**Computing `next_run`:**
+- `cron` tasks: use `CronExpressionParser.parse(expr, { tz }).next().toISOString()`
+- `interval` tasks: `new Date(Date.now() + ms).toISOString()`
+- `once` tasks: `next_run` equals `schedule_value`
+
+If groups haven't been registered yet (database doesn't exist), save the task details to `groups/main/openclaw-migration-tasks.md` with the exact SQL payloads, and tell the user: "These tasks will be created after `/setup` registers your groups."

+- **Discovery** — STATE_DIR, IDENTITY_NAME, channels, groups (with JID mappings), workspace files, cron job count, MCP servers
+- **Decisions** — assistant_name, group_model (shared/separate/main-only), main_group (folder + jid)
+- **Registered Groups** — table: folder, jid, channel, is_main

+- **Deferred / Not Applicable** — unsupported channels, discussed customizations, OpenClaw-only features
+
+Keep it factual and terse — this is for machine recovery after compaction, not human reading. Delete the file at the end of Phase 7 (or offer to keep it as a record).
+
+## Phase 0: Discovery
+
+Run the discovery script to find and summarize the OpenClaw installation:
+
+```bash
+pnpm exec tsx ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/discover-openclaw.ts
+```
+
+If the user specifies a custom path, pass it: `--state-dir <path>`
+
+Parse the status block. Key fields: STATUS, STATE_DIR, CHANNELS, WORKSPACE_FILES, DAILY_MEMORY_FILES, SKILL_COUNT, SKILLS, CRON_JOBS, MCP_SERVERS, IDENTITY_NAME, AGENT_COUNT, AGENT_IDS.
+
+**Sanity-check the output:** The discovery script detects known structures but can silently miss data if OpenClaw's format has changed. Check `CONFIG_TOP_KEYS` and `CONFIG_CHANNEL_KEYS` — if you see keys the script didn't report on (e.g. a channel name not in CHANNELS, or a top-level section like `integrations` or `plugins`), read that section of the config directly with the Read tool. Also check `STATE_DIR_CONTENTS` for directories the script doesn't scan (e.g. unexpected folders alongside `workspace/`, `agents/`, `cron/`).
+
+**If STATUS=not_found:** Tell the user no OpenClaw installation was detected at the standard locations (`~/.openclaw`, `~/.clawdbot`). Ask if they have a custom path. If not, exit.
+
+**If STATUS=found:** Present a human-readable summary:
+
+- "I found your OpenClaw installation at `<STATE_DIR>`."
+- Identity: name from IDENTITY.md (if found)
+- Workspace files: which of SOUL.md, USER.md, MEMORY.md, IDENTITY.md exist
+- Channels: list each, note which NanoClaw supports (whatsapp, telegram, slack, discord) and which it doesn't
+- Daily memory files: count (if any)
+- Skills: count and names (from workspace, shared, personal, project locations)
+- Cron jobs: count and names
+- MCP servers: count and names
+- Agents: count (relevant for Phase 1 groups discussion)
+
+Then explain the key architectural differences. Don't dump a table — paraphrase conversationally:
+
+- **Container isolation:** NanoClaw runs each agent in an isolated Linux container (Docker or Apple Container). OpenClaw runs everything in one process. This means stronger isolation but also means each group is its own sandbox.
+- **Group-based memory:** In OpenClaw, all groups under one agent share the same SOUL.md, MEMORY.md, and IDENTITY.md. In NanoClaw, each group has its own filesystem and CLAUDE.md. Shared state goes in `groups/global/CLAUDE.md` (mounted read-only into all non-main containers).
+- **Channel skills:** In OpenClaw, channels are configured in `openclaw.json`. In NanoClaw, channels are installed as code via skills (`/add-telegram`, `/add-whatsapp`, etc.) and configured through `.env` variables.
+- **Simpler config:** NanoClaw has no config file — behavior is in the code and `CLAUDE.md` files. Credentials live in `.env` or the OneCLI vault.
+
+AskUserQuestion: "Ready to start migrating? I'll go through each area one at a time."
+1. **Yes, let's go** — proceed to Phase 1
+2. **Tell me more** — explain more about any area they ask about
+3. **Skip migration** — exit
+
+## Phase 1: Groups and Architecture
+
+**This discussion must happen before identity/memory, because the shared-vs-isolated decision determines where files go.**
+
+If GROUP_COUNT > 0 or AGENT_COUNT > 1, this is a critical conversation. Even with just one group, explain the model difference so the user understands what they're getting into.
+
+**OpenClaw model:** All groups routed to the same agent share one workspace — the same SOUL.md, MEMORY.md, IDENTITY.md, and tools. When you talk to the bot in your family chat or your work chat, it's the same agent with the same personality and memory. Only the session (conversation history) is separate per group.
+
+**NanoClaw model:** Each group is a completely separate agent running in its own Linux container. Separate filesystem, separate memory, separate CLAUDE.md. The bot in your family chat and your work chat are different agents that don't know about each other — unless you explicitly share state via `groups/global/CLAUDE.md`, which is mounted read-only into all non-main containers.
+
+Explain this conversationally. If the user only has one group, it's simple — just note the difference and move on. If they have multiple groups, discuss:
+
+AskUserQuestion: "In OpenClaw, your groups shared the same personality and memory. In NanoClaw, each group is a fully separate agent. How would you like to handle this?"
+
+1. **Shared personality (recommended if your groups had the same bot)** — "I'll put the shared personality, identity, and user context in `groups/global/CLAUDE.md`. Every group sees it. Each group can add its own customizations on top."
+2. **Fully separate** — "Each group gets its own independent personality and memory. Complete isolation between groups."
+3. **Just main group for now** — "Set up one group now. We can add others later."
+
+Remember this choice — it determines where identity and memory files go in the next phase.
+
+### Confirm assistant name
+
+Before registering groups, confirm the assistant name — it's used for trigger patterns and CLAUDE.md templates.
+
+IDENTITY_NAME from discovery gives the OpenClaw name. Ask the user: "Your OpenClaw assistant was named `<IDENTITY_NAME>`. Want to keep this name in NanoClaw?" If they want a different name, ask what it should be. If IDENTITY_NAME was empty, ask them to choose a name (default: "Andy").
+
+The register step's `--assistant-name` flag writes `ASSISTANT_NAME` to `.env` and updates CLAUDE.md templates automatically — no manual `.env` write needed.
+
+### Registering groups
+
+The discovery script provides detected groups in the GROUPS field (format: `channel:id(name)=>nanoclaw_jid`). These are extracted from OpenClaw's session store and channel config.
+
+For each group the user wants to bring over, pre-register it:
+
+```bash
+pnpm exec tsx setup/index.ts --step register -- --jid "<nanoclaw_jid>" --name "<group_name>" --folder "<channel>_<slug>" --trigger "@<confirmed_name>" --channel <channel> --assistant-name "<confirmed_name>"
+```
+
+Only pass `--assistant-name` on the first registration (it updates all CLAUDE.md templates globally).
+
+Folder naming: `<channel>_<name-slug>` (e.g. `whatsapp_family-chat`, `telegram_dev-team`). Ask the user to confirm each group's name and folder.
+
+For the first/primary group, add `--is-main --no-trigger-required`. Other groups default to requiring a trigger prefix.
+
+**Important:** Registration requires the database to exist. If the environment step hasn't been run yet, run it first: `pnpm exec tsx setup/index.ts --step environment`. Registration also creates the group folder under `groups/` and copies the CLAUDE.md template.
+
+Register groups from all channels — including channels NanoClaw doesn't yet support (signal, matrix, etc.). The registration stores the JID and metadata in the database, ready for when that channel is added later. Groups won't receive messages until their channel code is installed, but the registration, group folder, and CLAUDE.md will be ready.
+
+## Phase 2: Settings from Config
+
+Before identity/memory, extract settings from `openclaw.json` that map directly to NanoClaw setup. Read the config file with the Read tool (`<STATE_DIR>/openclaw.json` or `clawdbot.json`).
+
+### Timezone
+
+Check `agents.defaults.userTimezone` in the config. If present and it's a valid IANA timezone (e.g. `America/New_York`, `Asia/Jerusalem`), write it to `.env` as `TZ=<timezone>`. NanoClaw's setup step 2a reads `TZ` from `.env` (`src/config.ts:84-97`) and will skip the autodetection prompt.
+
+### Anthropic Credentials
+
+Check for Anthropic API keys or tokens in OpenClaw's auth system. OpenClaw stores credentials in `<STATE_DIR>/auth-profiles.json` or `<STATE_DIR>/agents/main/agent/auth-profiles.json` with this structure:
+
+```json
+{
+  "version": 1,
+  "profiles": {
+    "anthropic:default": {
+      "type": "api_key",       // or "token" or "oauth"
+      "provider": "anthropic",
+      "key": "sk-ant-..."      // for api_key type
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Profile IDs follow `provider:identifier` format. Look for any profile where `provider` is `"anthropic"`. The credential field depends on the `type`:
+- `type: "api_key"` → `key` field (or `keyRef` for SecretRef)
+- `type: "token"` → `token` field (or `tokenRef` for SecretRef)
+- `type: "oauth"` → `access` field (OAuth access token, may need refresh)
+
+Also check:
+1. `<STATE_DIR>/.env` — for `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` or `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN`
+2. Config `models.providers` — for Anthropic provider entries with `apiKey`
+
+If found, offer to save to `.env`. This pre-fills the NanoClaw setup credential step (step 4) so the user doesn't need to re-enter it. Use the same masking approach — show first 4 + last 4 characters, write the full value directly.
+
+**Important:** If the credential uses `keyRef`/`tokenRef` with `source:"exec"` or `source:"file"`, explain that it can't be auto-extracted and the user will need to enter it during setup. For `type: "oauth"` credentials with an expiry in the past, warn the user the token may need to be refreshed during setup.
+
+### Sender Allowlists
+
+Read the channel configs for access control settings. OpenClaw stores these per-channel:
+- `channels.<channel>.allowFrom` — array of allowed sender IDs (E.164 for WhatsApp, numeric IDs for Telegram)
+- `channels.<channel>.dmPolicy` — `"open"`, `"allowlist"`, `"disabled"`
+- `channels.<channel>.groupPolicy` — `"open"`, `"allowlist"`, `"disabled"`
+- `channels.<channel>.groupAllowFrom` — array of allowed group member IDs
+
+NanoClaw uses `~/.config/nanoclaw/sender-allowlist.json` with this format:
+```json
+{
+  "default": { "allow": "*", "mode": "trigger" },
+  "chats": {
+    "<chat-jid>": {
+      "allow": ["sender-id-1", "sender-id-2"],
+      "mode": "trigger"
+    }
+  },
+  "logDenied": true
+}
+```
+
+Fields:
+- `allow`: `"*"` (all senders) or `string[]` (specific sender IDs)
+- `mode`: `"trigger"` (messages stored but trigger blocked for non-allowed senders) or `"drop"` (messages silently discarded before storage)
+- `logDenied`: optional boolean (default `true`), logs denied messages
+
+If OpenClaw had allowlists configured, show the user what was set and offer to create the NanoClaw equivalent. Map:
+- `dmPolicy:"allowlist"` + `allowFrom` → per-chat entry with `"allow"` array, `"mode": "trigger"`
+- `groupPolicy:"allowlist"` + `groupAllowFrom` → per-group entry with `"allow"` array, `"mode": "trigger"`
+- `dmPolicy:"open"` → `"allow": "*"`
+- `dmPolicy:"disabled"` → per-chat entry with `"allow": []`, `"mode": "drop"` (or don't register that chat)
+
+Create the directory and file:
+```bash
+mkdir -p ~/.config/nanoclaw
+```
+
+Then write the JSON file. If no allowlists were configured, skip this.
+
+### Container Timeout
+
+Check `agents.defaults.timeoutSeconds` in the config. This is maximum total agent runtime (wall-clock). NanoClaw's equivalent is `CONTAINER_TIMEOUT` (env var, default 30 min), also configurable per-group via `containerConfig.timeout`. Note: NanoClaw also has a separate `IDLE_TIMEOUT` (max time without output) which resets on activity — OpenClaw has no equivalent.
+
+If the OpenClaw value differs significantly from 30 minutes, note it for the user. They can set `CONTAINER_TIMEOUT=<ms>` in `.env` after setup.
+
+## Phase 3: Identity and Memory
+
+This phase is fully conversational — read files directly and discuss with the user. No script needed.
+
+**Where files go depends on the Phase 1 (groups) decision:**
+- **Shared personality:** Core identity goes in `groups/global/CLAUDE.md` (seen by all groups). Group-specific customizations go in each group's own CLAUDE.md.
+- **Fully separate:** Everything goes in `groups/main/` (or each group's own folder).
+- **Just main group:** Everything goes in `groups/main/`.
+
+### Find workspace files
+
+The STATE_DIR from discovery tells you where OpenClaw lives. Look for workspace files at `<STATE_DIR>/workspace/`. If AGENT_COUNT > 1, also check `<STATE_DIR>/agents/*/workspace/` and ask which agent to migrate.
+
+Use the Read tool to look at each file found.
+
+### IDENTITY.md
+
+Read `<STATE_DIR>/workspace/IDENTITY.md` if it exists. It uses a key:value format (name, emoji, creature, vibe, etc.).
+
+The assistant name was already confirmed and written to `.env` in Phase 1. Here, focus on the rest of the identity — create an `identity.md` file with the full identity details (emoji, creature, vibe, personality traits, etc.). If shared personality was chosen in Phase 1, put it alongside `groups/global/CLAUDE.md`. Otherwise, put it in `groups/main/`.
+
+### SOUL.md
+
+Read `<STATE_DIR>/workspace/SOUL.md` if it exists. Then read `groups/main/CLAUDE.md`.
+
+CLAUDE.md is always loaded into the agent's context — it's the agent's continuous instructions. Not everything from SOUL.md needs to be there. Discuss with the user what belongs where:
+
+- **In CLAUDE.md (always loaded):** Core personality traits, communication style, key behavioral rules. Weave these into the existing CLAUDE.md structure — adjust the opening description under the `# <Name>` heading, modify the tone in the Communication section.
+- **In a separate soul file:** Detailed personality backstory, extended guidelines, creative writing style, philosophical grounding — things the agent can reference when relevant but don't need to consume context tokens on every turn.
+
+**File placement depends on Phase 1 choice:**
+- Shared personality → edit `groups/global/CLAUDE.md` for the core traits, create `groups/global/soul.md` for the extended content. All groups will see both.
+- Separate / main only → edit `groups/main/CLAUDE.md`, create `groups/main/soul.md`.
+
+Add a reference in the relevant CLAUDE.md: "Your personality and extended behavioral guidelines are in `soul.md`. Refer to it for identity questions or when crafting responses that need your full character."
+
+Show proposed edits to the user before applying. This is a thoughtful merge, not a copy-paste.
+
+### USER.md
+
+Read `<STATE_DIR>/workspace/USER.md` if it exists.
+
+Create `groups/main/user-context.md` with the user information. Add a reference in CLAUDE.md: "Information about your user is in `user-context.md`. Read it when you need context about who you're talking to."
+
+Ask if they want any critical user facts (name, timezone, key preferences) directly in CLAUDE.md for always-on awareness.
+
+### MEMORY.md
+
+Read `<STATE_DIR>/workspace/MEMORY.md` if it exists.
+
+Show the contents and discuss what's worth keeping. Some memory entries may be stale or OpenClaw-specific. Create `groups/main/memories.md` for relevant items. Add a reference in CLAUDE.md.
+
+### Daily memory files (`workspace/memory/*.md`)
+
+If DAILY_MEMORY_FILES > 0 in the discovery output, OpenClaw accumulated dated memory files (e.g. `2024-01-01.md`). These contain observations, facts, and context gathered over time.
+
+AskUserQuestion: "You have N daily memory files from OpenClaw. How would you like to handle them?"
+
+1. **Copy as-is (recommended for many files)** — "I'll create a `daily-memories/` folder in your group directory and copy them over. Your agent can reference them when needed."
+   - Create the folder in the appropriate group directory (per Phase 1 decision)
+   - Copy all `.md` files: `cp -r <workspace>/memory/*.md <group_dir>/daily-memories/`
+   - Add a reference in CLAUDE.md: "Historical daily memory files from your previous system are in `daily-memories/`. Refer to them when you need context about past events or observations."
+
+2. **Consolidate into memories** — "I'll read through them, extract the durable facts, and add them to your memories file. This reduces clutter but takes longer."
+   - Read each file, extract entries worth keeping (skip transient observations, focus on durable facts about the user, preferences, recurring topics)
+   - Consolidate into `memories.md`
+   - Use sub-agents for large volumes (>10 files)
+
+3. **Skip** — "Don't bring daily memories over."
+
+### OpenClaw Skills
+
+If SKILL_COUNT > 0 in discovery, OpenClaw had custom skills. The SKILL.md format is a shared standard — skills are directly portable.
+
+The discovery reports skill names and source locations. For each skill, read just the YAML front matter (name + description at the top of SKILL.md) and present a list to the user: skill name, description, source location. Let the user select which ones to bring over.
+
+For confirmed skills, copy the entire skill directory as-is:
+
+```bash
+cp -r <skill_source_dir> container/skills/<skill_name>
+```
+
+After all skills are copied, a container rebuild is needed — note this for post-migration: `./container/build.sh`.
+
+### Config-registered plugins and skills
+
+If CONFIG_PLUGIN_COUNT > 0 in discovery, OpenClaw had installed plugins/skills with API keys (e.g. `plugins.entries.brave`, `skills.entries.openai-whisper-api`). These are functional tools the agent had access to.
+
+For each detected plugin, present the name to the user and discuss whether to set it up in NanoClaw. Read the OpenClaw config section to understand what it is, then:
+
+1. **If NanoClaw has a matching skill** — check the available NanoClaw skills list for an equivalent (e.g. `/add-voice-transcription` for whisper). If found, save the API key to `.env` and invoke that skill.
+
+2. **If the OpenClaw plugin was an MCP server** — read its config to find the exact package name and command. Install the same MCP server (e.g. `pnpm dlx <exact-package-from-config>`). Don't search for or guess at MCP packages — only install what was explicitly configured.
+
+3. **If the OpenClaw plugin was a CLI tool** — read the config to identify the exact tool. If it's an npm package, add it to the container's Dockerfile. Add a note to the group's CLAUDE.md that the tool is available and how to invoke it.
+
+4. **If the plugin wraps an API** — discuss with the user what it did and offer to implement the equivalent: save the API key to `.env`, write a container skill with instructions for using the API, or wire it into the message flow if it's something automatic (e.g. voice transcription).
+
+5. **If unclear** — discuss with the user what the plugin did and decide together. Don't install unknown packages or search for replacements — that's a supply chain risk.
+
+For API keys, read the config value directly (don't display raw keys) and write to `.env`. The discovery script reports which plugins have keys but never extracts them.
+
+### Other files (TOOLS.md, HEARTBEAT.md, BOOTSTRAP.md, AGENTS.md)
+
+If these exist, briefly mention them and explain:
+- TOOLS.md: NanoClaw agents have their own tool discovery; this doesn't transfer
+- HEARTBEAT.md: NanoClaw uses scheduled tasks instead
+- BOOTSTRAP.md: NanoClaw uses CLAUDE.md and container skills instead
+- AGENTS.md: Already covered in the Phase 1 groups discussion
+
+## Phase 4: Channel Credentials
+
+For each channel found in the discovery results, handle it based on NanoClaw support:
+
+### Supported channels (whatsapp, telegram, slack, discord)
+
+Run the credential extraction script with `--write-env .env` so it writes credentials directly to NanoClaw's `.env` file. The script never emits raw credential values to stdout — only masked versions.
+
+First, run without `--write-env` to preview:
+
+```bash
+pnpm exec tsx ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/extract-channel-credentials.ts --state-dir <STATE_DIR> --channel <name>
+```
+
+Parse the status block. Key fields: HAS_CREDENTIAL, CREDENTIAL_MASKED, NANOCLAW_ENV_VAR.
+
+**If HAS_CREDENTIAL=false but the user expects a credential:** The extraction script may not recognize the config structure. Fall back to reading the channel section of `openclaw.json` directly with the Read tool and look for any field that contains a token or key value. Ask the user to confirm.
+
+If HAS_CREDENTIAL=true: Show the masked credential (`CREDENTIAL_MASKED`). AskUserQuestion:
+1. **Use this credential** — run again with `--write-env .env` to save it
+2. **Enter a new one** — ask in plain text, write to `.env` manually
+3. **Skip this channel** — don't configure
+
+If using the credential:
+
+```bash
+pnpm exec tsx ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/extract-channel-credentials.ts --state-dir <STATE_DIR> --channel <name> --write-env .env
+```
+
+The script writes the credential directly to `.env` using the correct NanoClaw variable name (e.g. `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN`). Check the status block for `WRITTEN_TO` and `WRITTEN_COUNT` to confirm.
+
+**Credential destination note:** Credentials are saved to `.env` for now. During `/setup`, the credential step will either keep them in `.env` (Apple Container) or migrate them to the OneCLI vault (Docker). The user doesn't need to worry about this now.
+
+For Slack: there are two credentials (bot token + app token). The script handles both in one run — check `HAS_CREDENTIAL_2` and `NANOCLAW_ENV_VAR_2` in the status block.
+
+**WhatsApp special case:** WhatsApp uses QR/pairing-code authentication, not a token. Do not copy auth state from OpenClaw — encryption sessions become stale after copying and messages fail to decrypt. Authentication will be handled during `/setup` via the `/add-whatsapp` skill (takes about 60 seconds with a pairing code). Just note that WhatsApp was configured and move on.
+
+**Allowlist note:** If the channel had `allowFrom` or group policies, these were already handled in Phase 2 (sender allowlists). Mention that the allowlist file was created earlier.
+
+### Unsupported channels (signal, matrix, irc, msteams, feishu, etc.)
+
+Explain briefly: "NanoClaw doesn't have a `<channel>` integration yet, but channels are added over time via skills. Any groups from this channel were already registered in Phase 1 — they'll activate when the channel is added."
+
+If there are credentials (tokens, keys) for the unsupported channel, offer to save them to `.env` with a descriptive variable name (e.g. `SIGNAL_ACCOUNT`, `MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN`) so they're available when the channel is eventually supported.
+
+Don't invoke channel skills here — just prepare `.env` credentials. Channel code is installed during `/setup`.
+
+## Phase 5: Scheduled Tasks
+
+Read `<STATE_DIR>/cron/jobs.json` with the Read tool. If the file doesn't exist or has no jobs, skip this phase.
+
+If jobs exist, read `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/MIGRATE_CRONS.md` for the full OpenClaw cron format, NanoClaw table schema, field mapping, and SQL insert template. Follow those instructions for each job.
+
+## Phase 6: Webhooks, MCP, and Other Config
+
+Read relevant sections from `<STATE_DIR>/openclaw.json` directly with the Read tool. This phase is fully conversational.
+
+### MCP Servers
+
+If MCP_SERVERS was non-empty in discovery, these can be ported. Claude Code supports MCP servers natively. Read the OpenClaw config's `mcp.servers` section to get each server's details (`command`, `args`, `env`, `url`).
+
+MCP servers in NanoClaw are registered in the agent-runner source code. Before editing, grep for `mcpServers` in `container/agent-runner/src/` to find the current location — it's expected to be in `index.ts` in the `query()` options, but may have moved. For each OpenClaw MCP server the user wants to bring over:
+
+1. Read its config: command, args, env, url
+2. **stdio servers** (have `command`): Add an entry to the `mcpServers` object in `container/agent-runner/src/index.ts`. The command runs inside the container, so it needs to be available there (Node.js/npx-based servers work; custom binaries would need to be added to the Dockerfile).
+3. **HTTP/SSE servers** (have `url`): These work if the URL is accessible from inside the container. Add them the same way.
+4. **Environment variables**: Any `env` values that reference secrets should be added to `.env` and passed through via `process.env.*` in the mcpServers entry.
+
+After adding all MCP servers, a container rebuild is needed: `./container/build.sh`
+
+Show the user each server and ask which to bring over. For servers that need custom binaries not available in the container, note them for manual setup.
+
+### Webhooks and Endpoints
+
+If the config has webhook sections (in `cron.webhook`, `cron.failureDestination`, or channel-specific webhooks):
+- Explain what they were used for
+- These don't map directly but NanoClaw can be customized to support them
+- Discuss the use case with the user and propose a solution if it's important to them
+- For simple webhook notifications: a task script with `curl` often suffices
+
+### Other Config
+
+Scan the config for notable sections and briefly mention anything that doesn't carry over:
+- **Exec approvals / command allowlist:** NanoClaw uses container isolation instead — the agent runs with `--dangerously-skip-permissions` inside a sandboxed container
+- **Human delay:** Not applicable in NanoClaw's container model
+- **Compaction:** Handled by Claude Code SDK automatically
+- **TTS:** Not built into NanoClaw
+- **Model configuration:** NanoClaw uses whatever Anthropic model the credential provides access to
+
+Don't belabor these — just mention and move on.
+
+## Phase 7: Summary
+
+### Summary
+
+Print a comprehensive summary:
+
+**Migrated:**
+- Assistant name → `.env` ASSISTANT_NAME + CLAUDE.md templates updated
+- Groups → registered in database, folders created with CLAUDE.md templates
+- Timezone → `.env` TZ
+- Anthropic credential → `.env` (for setup to pick up)
+- Sender allowlists → `~/.config/nanoclaw/sender-allowlist.json`
+- Personality → CLAUDE.md (core) + `soul.md` (extended), placed per Phase 1 decision (global or per-group)
+- User context → `user-context.md`
+- Memories → `memories.md` + daily memory files (copied to `daily-memories/` or consolidated)
+- OpenClaw skills → copied to `container/skills/`
+- Channel credentials → `.env` (list which channels)
+- Scheduled tasks → inserted into database or noted for post-setup
+- MCP servers → registered in agent-runner
+
+**Noted for later:**
+- Channel code installation (happens during `/setup`)
+- Task creation (if deferred due to no registered group yet)
+- Container rebuild needed (if skills or MCP servers were added): `./container/build.sh`
+
+**Not applicable:**
+- Unsupported channels (list them — groups registered for future)
+- OpenClaw-specific features (exec approvals, human delay, TTS, model config, session reset policies, etc.)
+
+**Discussed and deferred:**
+- List any customizations agreed on but not yet implemented
+
+Remind: "Run `/setup` next to complete your NanoClaw installation. Channel credentials are already prepared in `.env`. When setup asks which channels to enable, select the ones we configured."
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Config parse error:** If `openclaw.json` fails to parse, it may use JSON5 features the parser doesn't handle. Ask the user to check the file for unusual syntax. As a fallback, the agent can read the file directly and work with it manually.
+
+**Credential not found:** If a channel credential resolves to empty, it may use `source:"exec"` or `source:"file"` SecretRef. These can't be auto-extracted. Ask the user to provide the value directly.
+
+**Multi-agent complexity:** If the user had many agents with different configs, focus on the primary/default agent first. Additional agents can be set up as separate NanoClaw groups later.

+name: migrate-nanoclaw
+description: Extracts user customizations from a fork, generates a replayable migration guide, and upgrades to upstream by reapplying customizations on a clean base. Replaces merge-based upgrades with intent-based migration.
+---
+
+# Context
+
+NanoClaw users fork the repo and customize it — changing config values, editing source files, modifying personas, adding skills. When upstream ships updates or refactors, `git merge` produces painful conflicts because the same core files were changed on both sides.
+
+This skill extracts the user's customizations into a migration guide — capturing both the intent (what they want) and the implementation details (how they did it, with code snippets, API calls, and specific configurations). On upgrade, it checks out clean upstream in a worktree, then reapplies customizations using the guide. No merge conflicts because there's nothing to merge.
+
+The migration guide is markdown, not structured data. It needs to capture the full range of what a user might customize, with enough implementation detail that a fresh Claude session can reapply it without having seen the original code. Standard changes (config values, simple logic) can be described briefly. Non-standard changes (specific APIs, custom integrations, unusual patterns) need code snippets and precise instructions.
+
+Two phases: **Extract** (build the migration guide) and **Upgrade** (use it). If a guide already exists, offer to skip to Upgrade.
+
+# Principles
+
+- Never proceed with a dirty working tree.
+- Always create a rollback point (backup branch + tag) before touching anything.
+- The migration guide is the source of truth, not diffs.
+- Use a worktree to validate before affecting the live install.
+- Data directories (`groups/`, `store/`, `data/`, `.env`) are never touched — only code.
+- Be helpful: offer to do things (stash, commit, stop services) rather than telling the user to do them.
+- **Use sub-agents for exploration.** Spawn haiku sub-agents to explore the codebase, trace skill merges, diff files, and identify customizations. This keeps the main context focused on the user conversation and decision-making.
+- **Always use absolute paths in worktrees.** The Bash tool resets the working directory between calls. Never use relative `cd .upgrade-worktree` — always use the full absolute path: `cd /absolute/path/.upgrade-worktree && <command>`. Store the worktree absolute path in a variable at creation time and reference it throughout.
+- **Balance exploration and asking.** Don't bombard the user with questions when you can figure things out from the code. Don't burn endless tokens exploring when the user could clarify in one sentence. Use sub-agents to explore first, then ask the user targeted questions about things that are ambiguous or where intent isn't clear from the code alone.
+- **Scale effort to complexity.** Not every migration needs the full process. Assess the scope early and take the lightest path that fits.
+
+---
+
+# Phase 1: Extract
+
+## 1.0 Preflight
+
+Run `git status --porcelain`. If non-empty, offer to stash or commit for them (AskUserQuestion: "Stash changes" / "Commit changes" / "I'll handle it"). If they want to commit, stage and commit with a descriptive message. If they want to stash, run `git stash push -m "pre-migration stash"`.
+
+Check remotes with `git remote -v`. If `upstream` is missing, ask for the URL (default: `https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw.git`), add it, then `git fetch upstream --prune`.
+
+Detect upstream branch: check `git branch -r | grep upstream/` for `main` or `master`. Store as UPSTREAM_BRANCH.
+
+## 1.1 Assess scope and determine path
+
+Quickly assess the scale of divergence, check for an existing guide, and determine the right approach — all before asking the user anything.
+
+```bash
+BASE=$(git merge-base HEAD upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH)
+# Divergence stats
+git rev-list --count $BASE..upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH  # upstream commits
+git rev-list --count $BASE..HEAD                       # user commits
+git diff --name-only $BASE..HEAD | wc -l               # user changed files
+git diff --stat $BASE..HEAD | tail -1                   # insertions/deletions
+git diff --name-only $BASE..upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH | wc -l  # upstream changed files
+```
+
+Check for existing guide: `.nanoclaw-migrations/guide.md` or `.nanoclaw-migrations/index.md`.
+
+**Determine the tier based on the total diff from base:**
+
+### Tier 1: Lightweight — suggest `/update-nanoclaw` instead
+
+Conditions (any of):
+- Very few upstream changes (< ~5 commits) AND few user changes (< ~3 changed files)
+- User recently updated/migrated (merge-base is close to upstream HEAD)
+
+Tell the user the scope is small and suggest `/update-nanoclaw` might be simpler. Let them choose.
+
+### Tier 2: Standard
+
+Conditions:
+- Moderate total diff (3-15 changed files, no large number of new files)
+- Manageable scope that fits in a single guide file
+
+### Tier 3: Complex
+
+Conditions (any of):
+- Many new files added (indicates many skills applied) — discount files that come purely from skill merges when assessing complexity; a fork with 3 skills and no other changes is simpler than it looks by file count alone
+- Deep source changes to core files (`src/index.ts`, `src/container-runner.ts`, etc.) beyond what skills introduced
+- Lots of insertions/deletions in user-authored code (not skill-merged code)
+- Many skills applied (3+) AND the user confirms or sub-agents find customizations on top of them
+
+Use the full process: multiple sub-agents in parallel, directory-based guide, migration plan.
+
+**Now combine the scope assessment with initial user input in one interaction.** Present the scope summary (how many commits, files, which tier) and ask (AskUserQuestion):
+
+For Tier 1:
+- **Use /update-nanoclaw** — simpler merge-based approach
+- **Proceed with full migration** — continue
+
+For Tier 2/3 (with or without existing guide):
+- If guide exists and is current: **Skip to upgrade** / **Update guide** (add new changes) / **Re-extract from scratch**
+- If guide exists but is stale: **Update guide** (recommended) / **Re-extract from scratch** / **Skip to upgrade anyway**
+- If no guide: **Yes, let me describe my customizations first** / **Just figure it out** / **A bit of both**
+
+This single interaction replaces what were previously separate steps for scope assessment, user input, and existing guide check.
+
+## 1.2 Update existing guide (if applicable)
+
+If the user chose to update an existing guide rather than re-extract:
+
+1. Read the existing guide
+2. Find commits made since the guide was generated (compare guide's recorded base hash against current HEAD)
+3. Spawn a haiku sub-agent to analyze only the new changes:
+   > Diff HEAD against `<guide-recorded-hash>`. For each changed file, summarize what changed and why.
+4. Present the new changes to the user for confirmation
+5. Append new customizations to the existing guide, update the header hashes
+6. Skip to Phase 2
+
+## 1.3 Explore the codebase
+
+Spawn a haiku sub-agent (Agent tool, model: haiku) for initial exploration:
+
+> Explore this NanoClaw fork to identify all changes from the upstream base. Run these commands and report back:
+>
+> 1. `git diff --name-only $BASE..HEAD` — all changed files
+> 2. `git log --oneline $BASE..HEAD` — all commits (look for skill branch merges like `Merge branch 'skill/*'`)
+> 3. `git branch -r --list 'upstream/skill/*'` — available upstream skill branches
+> 4. `ls .claude/skills/` — installed skills
+> 5. For each skill merge found, record the merge commit hash
+>
+> Report: (a) list of applied skills with their merge commit hashes, (b) list of all changed files, (c) any custom skill directories that don't match upstream branches.
+
+From the sub-agent results, identify:
+- **Which files came purely from skill merges** — these will be reapplied by re-merging skill branches in Phase 2
+- **Everything else** — all remaining changes are customizations to analyze (whether they're on skill-touched files or not)
+
+Don't try to distinguish "user modified a skill file" from "user made their own change" at this stage. The sub-agents in 1.4 will look at all non-skill changes together and surface what matters.
+
+## 1.4 Analyze customizations
+
+For each applied skill, ask the user in a single batched question (AskUserQuestion, multiSelect):
+
+> "I found these applied skills. Select any you customized further after applying:"
+
+Options: one per skill, plus "None — all used as-is".
+
+Then spawn sub-agents to analyze all non-skill changes. For Tier 2, one or two agents. For Tier 3, run in parallel by area:
+
+- **Config + build files** — one sub-agent
+- **Source files** (`src/*.ts`) — one sub-agent
+- **Skills the user flagged as modified** (or all of them for Tier 3) — one sub-agent per skill, comparing the user's current files against the skill merge commit version:
+  ```
+  git diff <merge-commit-hash>..HEAD -- <files-touched-by-skill>
+  ```
+- **Container files** — one sub-agent (if changes exist)
+
+Each sub-agent task:
+
+> Read these diffs and the current file contents. For each change:
+> 1. `git diff $BASE..HEAD -- <file>` (or `git diff <skill-merge-hash>..HEAD -- <file>` for skill-modified files)
+> 2. Read the full current file for context
+> 3. Summarize: what changed, what the likely intent is
+> 4. Assess detail level: could a fresh Claude session reproduce this from intent alone, or does it need specific code snippets, API details, import paths?
+> 5. For non-standard changes, extract the key code, imports, API calls, and configurations verbatim.
+
+**Inter-skill conflicts:** If multiple skills are applied, spawn an additional sub-agent to check for interactions between them. Look for:
+- Duplicate declarations (same variable/constant defined by two skill branches)
+- Conflicting approaches (one skill throws on missing env var, another provides a fallback)
+- Shared files modified by multiple skills
+
+Document any findings in the "Skill Interactions" section of the migration guide so they can be resolved after skill branches are re-merged during upgrade.
+
+## 1.5 Confirm with user
+
+After sub-agents report back, compile the findings and present to the user.
+
+For customizations where the intent is clear (config values, simple modifications): present as a batch for confirmation. Use AskUserQuestion with multiSelect to let the user flag any entries that need correction.
+
+For customizations where the intent is ambiguous: ask specific questions. Don't ask "what did you do?" — instead ask "I see you added X in this file. Was this for Y or something else?"
+
+The user can select "Other" on any question to provide their own description.
+
+## 1.6 Migration plan (Tier 3 only)
+
+For complex migrations, before writing the guide, create a migration plan:
+
+- **Order of operations**: which customizations depend on others, which skills must be applied first
+- **Staging**: whether the migration should happen in stages (e.g. apply skills first, validate, then apply source customizations)
+- **Risk areas**: customizations that touch files heavily changed by upstream — these may need manual review
+- **Interactions**: customizations that interact with each other (e.g. a source change that depends on a skill, or two customizations that touch the same file)
+
+Present the plan to the user for review before proceeding to the guide.
+
+## 1.7 Write the migration guide
+
+**Storage:** `.nanoclaw-migrations/guide.md` for Tier 2. `.nanoclaw-migrations/` directory with `index.md` and section files for Tier 3.
+
+**Verification:** After writing the guide, read it back and verify:
+- Every referenced file path exists in the current codebase
+- Code snippets match what's actually in the files
+- No customizations from the analysis were accidentally omitted
+
+The guide is structured markdown that a fresh Claude session can follow to reproduce this user's exact setup on a clean upstream checkout.
+
+Structure:
+
+```markdown
+# NanoClaw Migration Guide
+
+Generated: <timestamp>
+Base: <BASE hash>
+HEAD at generation: <HEAD hash>
+Upstream: <upstream HEAD hash>
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+(Tier 3 only — big-picture overview of order, staging, risks)
+
+## Applied Skills
+
+List each skill with its branch name. These are reapplied by merging the upstream skill branch.
+
+- `add-telegram` — branch `skill/telegram`
+- `add-voice-transcription` — branch `skill/voice-transcription`
+
+Custom skills (user-created, not from upstream): `.claude/skills/my-custom-skill/` — copy as-is from main tree.
+
+## Skill Interactions
+
+(Document known conflicts or interactions between applied skills.
+When two or more skills modify the same file or depend on shared
+config, describe the conflict and how to resolve it after merging.
+Example: skill A and skill B both add a PROXY_BIND_HOST declaration —
+after merging both, deduplicate. Or: skill A throws if ENV_VAR is
+missing, but skill B provides a fallback — use the fallback version.)
+
+## Modifications to Applied Skills
+
+### <Skill name>: <what was modified>
+
+**Intent:** ...
+
+**Files:** ...
+
+**How to apply:** (after the skill branch has been merged)
+
+...
+
+## Customizations
+
+### <Descriptive title for customization>
+
+**Intent:** What the user wants and why.
+
+**Files:** Which files to modify.
+
+**How to apply:**
+
+<For standard changes, a brief description is enough.>
+
+<For non-standard changes, include code snippets, API details,
+specific values, import paths — everything needed to reproduce
+without seeing the original diff.>
+
+### <Next customization...>
+```
+
+**Judging detail level:** For each customization, assess whether a fresh Claude session could reproduce it from intent alone:
+- **Standard changes** (config values, simple logic, well-known patterns): describe the intent and the target. Example: "Change `POLL_INTERVAL` in `src/config.ts` from 2000 to 1000."
+- **Non-standard changes** (specific API usage, custom integrations, unusual patterns, library-specific configurations): include the actual code snippets, import paths, API endpoints, configuration objects — everything needed to reproduce it without guessing.
+
+Example entries at different detail levels:
+
+**Standard (brief):**
+```markdown
+### Custom trigger word
+
+**Intent:** Use `@Bob` instead of the default `@Andy`.
+
+**Files:** `src/config.ts`
+
+**How to apply:** Change the default value of `ASSISTANT_NAME` from `'Andy'` to `'Bob'`.
+```
+
+**Non-standard (detailed):**
+```markdown
+### Spanish translation for outbound messages
+
+**Intent:** All outbound messages are translated to Spanish before sending. Uses the DeepL API via the `deepl-node` package.
+
+**Files:** `src/router.ts`, `package.json`
+
+**How to apply:**
+
+1. Add dependency: `npm install deepl-node`
+
+2. In `src/router.ts`, add import at top:
+   ```typescript
+   import * as deepl from 'deepl-node';
+   const translator = new deepl.Translator(process.env.DEEPL_API_KEY!);
+   ```
+
+3. In the `formatOutbound` function, before the return statement, add:
+   ```typescript
+   const result = await translator.translateText(text, null, 'es');
+   text = result.text;
+   ```
+   Note: the function needs to be made async if it isn't already.
+```
+
+After writing, offer to commit for the user:
+```bash
+git add .nanoclaw-migrations/
+git commit -m "chore: save migration guide"
+```
+
+Ask (AskUserQuestion): "Migration guide saved. Want to upgrade now or later?"
+- **Upgrade now** — continue to Phase 2
+- **Later** — stop here
+
+---
+
+# Phase 2: Upgrade
+
+## 2.0 Preflight
+
+Same checks as 1.0 — clean tree (offer to stash/commit if dirty), upstream configured, fetch latest.
+
+Read the migration guide. If missing, tell the user you need to extract customizations first and ask if they want to do that now.
+
+**New-changes guard:** Compare the guide's "HEAD at generation" hash against current HEAD. If there are commits since the guide was generated, warn the user:
+
+> "You've made changes since the migration guide was generated. These changes won't be included in the upgrade."
+
+AskUserQuestion:
+- **Update the guide first** — go to step 1.2 to incorporate new changes
+- **Proceed anyway** — user accepts that recent changes will be lost
+- **Abort** — stop
+
+## 2.1 Safety net
+
+```bash
+HASH=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)
+TIMESTAMP=$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)
+git branch backup/pre-migrate-$HASH-$TIMESTAMP
+git tag pre-migrate-$HASH-$TIMESTAMP
+```
+
+Save the tag name for rollback instructions at the end.
+
+## 2.2 Preview upstream changes
+
+```bash
+BASE=$(git merge-base HEAD upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH)
+git log --oneline $BASE..upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH
+git diff $BASE..upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH -- CHANGELOG.md
+```
+
+If there are `[BREAKING]` entries, show them and explain how they interact with the user's customizations from the migration guide.
+
+Ask (AskUserQuestion) to proceed or abort.
+
+## 2.3 Create upgrade worktree
+
+```bash
+PROJECT_ROOT=$(pwd)
+git worktree add .upgrade-worktree upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH --detach
+WORKTREE="$PROJECT_ROOT/.upgrade-worktree"
+```
+
+Store `$PROJECT_ROOT` and `$WORKTREE` as absolute paths. Use `$WORKTREE` in all subsequent commands — never `cd .upgrade-worktree` with a relative path.
+
+## 2.4 Reapply skills in worktree
+
+For each skill listed in the migration guide's "Applied Skills" section:
+
+1. Check if branch exists: `git branch -r --list "upstream/$branch"`
+2. If yes, merge it in the worktree:
+   ```bash
+   cd "$WORKTREE" && git merge upstream/skill/<name> --no-edit
+   ```
+3. If missing, warn the user (skill may have been removed or renamed upstream).
+4. If any skill merge conflicts, stop and tell the user — the skill needs updating for the new upstream.
+
+Copy any custom skills mentioned in the guide from the main tree into the worktree.
+
+## 2.5 Reapply customizations in worktree
+
+Work in `.upgrade-worktree/`. Follow each customization section in the migration guide, including "Modifications to Applied Skills."
+
+For Tier 3 migrations with a migration plan, follow the plan's ordering and staging. If the plan calls for staged validation (e.g. validate after skills, then validate after source changes), do so.
+
+For each customization:
+1. Read the "How to apply" instructions from the guide
+2. Read the target file(s) in the worktree to understand the current upstream version
+3. Apply the changes as described — use the code snippets and specific instructions from the guide
+4. If the target file has changed significantly from what the guide expects (function removed, file restructured, API changed), flag it and ask the user what to do
+5. Verify the file has no syntax errors or broken imports after each change
+
+For behavior customizations (CLAUDE.md files): copy from the main tree. These are user content, not code.
+
+## 2.6 Validate in worktree
+
+```bash
+cd "$WORKTREE" && pnpm install && pnpm run build && pnpm test
+```
+
+If build fails, show the error. Fix only issues caused by the migration. If unclear, ask the user.
+
+## 2.7 Live test (optional)
+
+Ask (AskUserQuestion):
+- **Test live** — stop service, run from worktree against real data, send a test message
+- **Skip** — trust the build, proceed to swap
+
+If testing live:
+
+1. Stop the service (do this directly):
+   ```bash
+   launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist 2>/dev/null || true
+   ```
+
+2. Symlink data into the worktree:
+   ```bash
+   ln -s "$PROJECT_ROOT/store" "$WORKTREE/store"
+   ln -s "$PROJECT_ROOT/data" "$WORKTREE/data"
+   ln -s "$PROJECT_ROOT/groups" "$WORKTREE/groups"
+   ln -s "$PROJECT_ROOT/.env" "$WORKTREE/.env"
+   ```
+
+3. Start from worktree: `cd "$WORKTREE" && pnpm run dev`
+
+4. Ask the user to send a test message from their phone. Wait for them to confirm it works.
+
+5. After confirmation, stop the dev server.
+
+6. Clean up symlinks:
+   ```bash
+   rm "$WORKTREE/store" "$WORKTREE/data" "$WORKTREE/groups" "$WORKTREE/.env"
+   ```
+
+## 2.8 Swap into main tree
+
+The swap must be done carefully — the worktree has the upgraded code, but main needs to point to it cleanly. Use absolute paths throughout.
+
+```bash
+# 1. Capture the worktree HEAD before removing it
+WORKTREE_PATH=$(cd "$PROJECT_ROOT/.upgrade-worktree" && pwd)
+UPGRADE_COMMIT=$(git -C "$WORKTREE_PATH" rev-parse HEAD)
+
+# 2. Copy the migration guide out of the worktree before removing it
+cp -r "$WORKTREE_PATH/.nanoclaw-migrations" /tmp/nanoclaw-migrations-backup 2>/dev/null || true
+
+# 3. Remove the worktree
+git worktree remove "$WORKTREE_PATH" --force
+
+# 4. Point the current branch at the upgraded commit
+git reset --hard $UPGRADE_COMMIT
+
+# 5. Restore the migration guide and update its hashes
+cp -r /tmp/nanoclaw-migrations-backup/* .nanoclaw-migrations/ 2>/dev/null || true
+rm -rf /tmp/nanoclaw-migrations-backup
+```
+
+Update the guide's header hashes to reflect the new state. Offer to commit:
+```bash
+git add .nanoclaw-migrations/
+git commit -m "chore: upgrade to upstream $(git rev-parse --short upstream/$UPSTREAM_BRANCH)"
+```
+
+Do NOT use `git checkout -B` to create an intermediate branch — this caused issues in practice. The `git reset --hard` to the upgrade commit is the cleanest path since the backup tag already preserves the pre-upgrade state.
+
+## 2.9 Post-upgrade
+
+Run `npm install && pnpm run build` in the main tree to confirm.
+
+Restart the service:
+```bash
+launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
+```
+
+Show summary:
+- Previous version (backup tag)
+- New HEAD
+- Customizations reapplied (list from guide)
+- Skills reapplied
+- Rollback: `git reset --hard <backup-tag>`
+- Any customizations that needed manual adjustment
+
+Offer to pop the stash if one was created in preflight: `git stash pop`
+
+## Diagnostics
+
+1. Use the Read tool to read `.claude/skills/migrate-nanoclaw/diagnostics.md`.
+2. Follow every step in that file before finishing.

 # NanoClaw Setup
 
-Run setup steps automatically. Only pause when user action is required (channel authentication, configuration choices). Setup uses `bash setup.sh` for bootstrap, then `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step <name>` for all other steps. Steps emit structured status blocks to stdout. Verbose logs go to `logs/setup.log`.
+Tell the user to run `bash nanoclaw.sh` in their terminal. That script handles the full end-to-end setup — dependencies, container image, OneCLI vault, Anthropic credential, service, first agent, and optional channel wiring.
 
-**Principle:** When something is broken or missing, fix it. Don't tell the user to go fix it themselves unless it genuinely requires their manual action (e.g. authenticating a channel, pasting a secret token). If a dependency is missing, install it. If a service won't start, diagnose and repair. Ask the user for permission when needed, then do the work.
-
-**UX Note:** Use `AskUserQuestion` for multiple-choice questions only (e.g. "Docker or Apple Container?", "which channels?"). Do NOT use it when free-text input is needed (e.g. phone numbers, tokens, paths) — just ask the question in plain text and wait for the user's reply.
-
-## 0. Git & Fork Setup
-
-Check the git remote configuration to ensure the user has a fork and upstream is configured.
-
-Run:
-- `git remote -v`
-
-**Case A — `origin` points to `qwibitai/nanoclaw` (user cloned directly):**
-
-The user cloned instead of forking. AskUserQuestion: "You cloned NanoClaw directly. We recommend forking so you can push your customizations. Would you like to set up a fork?"
-- Fork now (recommended) — walk them through it
-- Continue without fork — they'll only have local changes
-
-If fork: instruct the user to fork `qwibitai/nanoclaw` on GitHub (they need to do this in their browser), then ask them for their GitHub username. Run:
-```bash
-git remote rename origin upstream
-git remote add origin https://github.com/<their-username>/nanoclaw.git
-git push --force origin main
-```
-Verify with `git remote -v`.
-
-If continue without fork: add upstream so they can still pull updates:
-```bash
-git remote add upstream https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw.git
-```
-
-**Case B — `origin` points to user's fork, no `upstream` remote:**
-
-Add upstream:
-```bash
-git remote add upstream https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw.git
-```
-
-**Case C — both `origin` (user's fork) and `upstream` (qwibitai) exist:**
-
-Already configured. Continue.
-
-**Verify:** `git remote -v` should show `origin` → user's repo, `upstream` → `qwibitai/nanoclaw.git`.
-
-## 1. Bootstrap (Node.js + Dependencies)
-
-Run `bash setup.sh` and parse the status block.
-
-- If NODE_OK=false → Node.js is missing or too old. Use `AskUserQuestion: Would you like me to install Node.js 22?` If confirmed:
-  - macOS: `brew install node@22` (if brew available) or install nvm then `nvm install 22`
-  - Linux: `curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_22.x | sudo -E bash - && sudo apt-get install -y nodejs`, or nvm
-  - After installing Node, re-run `bash setup.sh`
-- If DEPS_OK=false → Read `logs/setup.log`. Try: delete `node_modules`, re-run `bash setup.sh`. If native module build fails, install build tools (`xcode-select --install` on macOS, `build-essential` on Linux), then retry.
-- If NATIVE_OK=false → better-sqlite3 failed to load. Install build tools and re-run.
-- Record PLATFORM and IS_WSL for later steps.
-
-## 2. Check Environment
-
-Run `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step environment` and parse the status block.
-
-- If HAS_AUTH=true → WhatsApp is already configured, note for step 5
-- If HAS_REGISTERED_GROUPS=true → note existing config, offer to skip or reconfigure
-- Record APPLE_CONTAINER and DOCKER values for step 3
-
-## 2a. Timezone
-
-Run `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step timezone` and parse the status block.
-
-- If NEEDS_USER_INPUT=true → The system timezone could not be autodetected (e.g. POSIX-style TZ like `IST-2`). AskUserQuestion: "What is your timezone?" with common options (America/New_York, Europe/London, Asia/Jerusalem, Asia/Tokyo) and an "Other" escape. Then re-run: `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step timezone -- --tz <their-answer>`.
-- If STATUS=success → Timezone is configured. Note RESOLVED_TZ for reference.
-
-## 3. Container Runtime
-
-### 3a. Choose runtime
-
-Check the preflight results for `APPLE_CONTAINER` and `DOCKER`, and the PLATFORM from step 1.
-
-- PLATFORM=linux → Docker (only option)
-- PLATFORM=macos + APPLE_CONTAINER=installed → AskUserQuestion with two options:
-  1. **Docker (recommended)** — description: "Cross-platform, better credential management, well-tested."
-  2. **Apple Container (experimental)** — description: "Native macOS runtime. Requires advanced setup."
-  If Apple Container, run `/convert-to-apple-container` now, then skip to 3c.
-- PLATFORM=macos + APPLE_CONTAINER=not_found → Docker
-
-### 3a-docker. Install Docker
-
-- DOCKER=running → continue to 4b
-- DOCKER=installed_not_running → start Docker: `open -a Docker` (macOS) or `sudo systemctl start docker` (Linux). Wait 15s, re-check with `docker info`.
-- DOCKER=not_found → Use `AskUserQuestion: Docker is required for running agents. Would you like me to install it?` If confirmed:
-  - macOS: install via `brew install --cask docker`, then `open -a Docker` and wait for it to start. If brew not available, direct to Docker Desktop download at https://docker.com/products/docker-desktop
-  - Linux: install with `curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh && sudo usermod -aG docker $USER`. Note: user may need to log out/in for group membership.
-
-### 3b. Apple Container conversion gate (if needed)
-
-**If the chosen runtime is Apple Container**, you MUST check whether the source code has already been converted from Docker to Apple Container. Do NOT skip this step. Run:
-
-```bash
-grep -q "CONTAINER_RUNTIME_BIN = 'container'" src/container-runtime.ts && echo "ALREADY_CONVERTED" || echo "NEEDS_CONVERSION"
-```
-
-**If NEEDS_CONVERSION**, the source code still uses Docker as the runtime. You MUST run the `/convert-to-apple-container` skill NOW, before proceeding to the build step.
-
-**If ALREADY_CONVERTED**, the code already uses Apple Container. Continue to 3c.
-
-**If the chosen runtime is Docker**, no conversion is needed. Continue to 3c.
-
-### 3c. Build and test
-
-Run `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step container -- --runtime <chosen>` and parse the status block.
-
-**If BUILD_OK=false:** Read `logs/setup.log` tail for the build error.
-- Cache issue (stale layers): `docker builder prune -f` (Docker) or `container builder stop && container builder rm && container builder start` (Apple Container). Retry.
-- Dockerfile syntax or missing files: diagnose from the log and fix, then retry.
-
-**If TEST_OK=false but BUILD_OK=true:** The image built but won't run. Check logs — common cause is runtime not fully started. Wait a moment and retry the test.
-
-## 4. Credential System
-
-The credential system depends on the container runtime chosen in step 3.
-
-### 4a. Docker → OneCLI
-
-Install OneCLI and its CLI tool:
-
-```bash
-curl -fsSL onecli.sh/install | sh
-curl -fsSL onecli.sh/cli/install | sh
-```
-
-Verify both installed: `onecli version`. If the command is not found, the CLI was likely installed to `~/.local/bin/`. Add it to PATH for the current session and persist it:
-
-```bash
-export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
-# Persist for future sessions (append to shell profile if not already present)
-grep -q '.local/bin' ~/.bashrc 2>/dev/null || echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
-grep -q '.local/bin' ~/.zshrc 2>/dev/null || echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
-```
-
-Then re-verify with `onecli version`.
-
-Point the CLI at the local OneCLI instance (it defaults to the cloud service otherwise):
-```bash
-onecli config set api-host http://127.0.0.1:10254
-```
-
-Ensure `.env` has the OneCLI URL (create the file if it doesn't exist):
-```bash
-grep -q 'ONECLI_URL' .env 2>/dev/null || echo 'ONECLI_URL=http://127.0.0.1:10254' >> .env
-```
-
-Check if a secret already exists:
-```bash
-onecli secrets list
-```
-
-If an Anthropic secret is listed, confirm with user: keep or reconfigure? If keeping, skip to step 5.
-
-AskUserQuestion: Do you want to use your **Claude subscription** (Pro/Max) or an **Anthropic API key**?
-
-1. **Claude subscription (Pro/Max)** — description: "Uses your existing Claude Pro or Max subscription. You'll run `claude setup-token` in another terminal to get your token."
-2. **Anthropic API key** — description: "Pay-per-use API key from console.anthropic.com."
-
-#### Subscription path
-
-Tell the user:
-
-> Run `claude setup-token` in another terminal. It will output a token — copy it but don't paste it here.
-
-Then stop and wait for the user to confirm they have the token. Do NOT proceed until they respond.
-
-Once they confirm, they register it with OneCLI. AskUserQuestion with two options:
-
-1. **Dashboard** — description: "Best if you have a browser on this machine. Open http://127.0.0.1:10254 and add the secret in the UI. Use type 'anthropic' and paste your token as the value."
-2. **CLI** — description: "Best for remote/headless servers. Run: `onecli secrets create --name Anthropic --type anthropic --value YOUR_TOKEN --host-pattern api.anthropic.com`"
-
-#### API key path
-
-Tell the user to get an API key from https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys if they don't have one.
-
-Then AskUserQuestion with two options:
-
-1. **Dashboard** — description: "Best if you have a browser on this machine. Open http://127.0.0.1:10254 and add the secret in the UI."
-2. **CLI** — description: "Best for remote/headless servers. Run: `onecli secrets create --name Anthropic --type anthropic --value YOUR_KEY --host-pattern api.anthropic.com`"
-
-#### After either path
-
-Ask them to let you know when done.
-
-**If the user's response happens to contain a token or key** (starts with `sk-ant-`): handle it gracefully — run the `onecli secrets create` command with that value on their behalf.
-
-**After user confirms:** verify with `onecli secrets list` that an Anthropic secret exists. If not, ask again.
-
-### 4b. Apple Container → Native Credential Proxy
-
-Apple Container is not compatible with OneCLI. Invoke `/use-native-credential-proxy` to set up the built-in credential proxy instead. That skill handles credential collection, `.env` configuration, and verification.
-
-## 5. Set Up Channels
-
-AskUserQuestion (multiSelect): Which messaging channels do you want to enable?
-- WhatsApp (authenticates via QR code or pairing code)
-- Telegram (authenticates via bot token from @BotFather)
-- Slack (authenticates via Slack app with Socket Mode)
-- Discord (authenticates via Discord bot token)
-
-**Delegate to each selected channel's own skill.** Each channel skill handles its own code installation, authentication, registration, and JID resolution. This avoids duplicating channel-specific logic and ensures JIDs are always correct.
-
-For each selected channel, invoke its skill:
-
-- **WhatsApp:** Invoke `/add-whatsapp`
-- **Telegram:** Invoke `/add-telegram`
-- **Slack:** Invoke `/add-slack`
-- **Discord:** Invoke `/add-discord`
-
-Each skill will:
-1. Install the channel code (via `git merge` of the skill branch)
-2. Collect credentials/tokens and write to `.env`
-3. Authenticate (WhatsApp QR/pairing, or verify token-based connection)
-4. Register the chat with the correct JID format
-5. Build and verify
-
-**After all channel skills complete**, install dependencies and rebuild — channel merges may introduce new packages:
-
-```bash
-npm install && npm run build
-```
-
-If the build fails, read the error output and fix it (usually a missing dependency). Then continue to step 6.
-
-## 6. Mount Allowlist
-
-AskUserQuestion: Agent access to external directories?
-
-**No:** `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step mounts -- --empty`
-**Yes:** Collect paths/permissions. `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step mounts -- --json '{"allowedRoots":[...],"blockedPatterns":[],"nonMainReadOnly":true}'`
-
-## 7. Start Service
-
-If service already running: unload first.
-- macOS: `launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist`
-- Linux: `systemctl --user stop nanoclaw` (or `systemctl stop nanoclaw` if root)
-
-Run `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step service` and parse the status block.
-
-**If FALLBACK=wsl_no_systemd:** WSL without systemd detected. Tell user they can either enable systemd in WSL (`echo -e "[boot]\nsystemd=true" | sudo tee /etc/wsl.conf` then restart WSL) or use the generated `start-nanoclaw.sh` wrapper.
-
-**If DOCKER_GROUP_STALE=true:** The user was added to the docker group after their session started — the systemd service can't reach the Docker socket. Ask user to run these two commands:
-
-1. Immediate fix: `sudo setfacl -m u:$(whoami):rw /var/run/docker.sock`
-2. Persistent fix (re-applies after every Docker restart):
-```bash
-sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d
-sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/socket-acl.conf << 'EOF'
-[Service]
-ExecStartPost=/usr/bin/setfacl -m u:USERNAME:rw /var/run/docker.sock
-EOF
-sudo systemctl daemon-reload
-```
-Replace `USERNAME` with the actual username (from `whoami`). Run the two `sudo` commands separately — the `tee` heredoc first, then `daemon-reload`. After user confirms setfacl ran, re-run the service step.
-
-**If SERVICE_LOADED=false:**
-- Read `logs/setup.log` for the error.
-- macOS: check `launchctl list | grep nanoclaw`. If PID=`-` and status non-zero, read `logs/nanoclaw.error.log`.
-- Linux: check `systemctl --user status nanoclaw`.
-- Re-run the service step after fixing.
-
-## 8. Verify
-
-Run `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step verify` and parse the status block.
-
-**If STATUS=failed, fix each:**
-- SERVICE=stopped → `npm run build`, then restart: `launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw` (macOS) or `systemctl --user restart nanoclaw` (Linux) or `bash start-nanoclaw.sh` (WSL nohup)
-- SERVICE=not_found → re-run step 7
-- CREDENTIALS=missing → re-run step 4 (Docker: check `onecli secrets list`; Apple Container: check `.env` for credentials)
-- CHANNEL_AUTH shows `not_found` for any channel → re-invoke that channel's skill (e.g. `/add-telegram`)
-- REGISTERED_GROUPS=0 → re-invoke the channel skills from step 5
-- MOUNT_ALLOWLIST=missing → `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step mounts -- --empty`
-
-Tell user to test: send a message in their registered chat. Show: `tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log`
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-**Service not starting:** Check `logs/nanoclaw.error.log`. Common: wrong Node path (re-run step 7), credential system not running (Docker: check `curl http://127.0.0.1:10254/api/health`; Apple Container: check `.env` credentials), missing channel credentials (re-invoke channel skill).
-
-**Container agent fails ("Claude Code process exited with code 1"):** Ensure the container runtime is running — `open -a Docker` (macOS Docker), `container system start` (Apple Container), or `sudo systemctl start docker` (Linux). Check container logs in `groups/main/logs/container-*.log`.
-
-**No response to messages:** Check trigger pattern. Main channel doesn't need prefix. Check DB: `npx tsx setup/index.ts --step verify`. Check `logs/nanoclaw.log`.
-
-**Channel not connecting:** Verify the channel's credentials are set in `.env`. Channels auto-enable when their credentials are present. For WhatsApp: check `store/auth/creds.json` exists. For token-based channels: check token values in `.env`. Restart the service after any `.env` change.
-
-**Unload service:** macOS: `launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist` | Linux: `systemctl --user stop nanoclaw`

-description: Use when the user wants local voice transcription instead of OpenAI Whisper API. Switches to whisper.cpp running on Apple Silicon. WhatsApp only for now. Requires voice-transcription skill to be applied first.
----
-
-# Use Local Whisper
-
-Switches voice transcription from OpenAI's Whisper API to local whisper.cpp. Runs entirely on-device — no API key, no network, no cost.
-
-**Channel support:** Currently WhatsApp only. The transcription module (`src/transcription.ts`) uses Baileys types for audio download. Other channels (Telegram, Discord, etc.) would need their own audio-download logic before this skill can serve them.
-
-**Note:** The Homebrew package is `whisper-cpp`, but the CLI binary it installs is `whisper-cli`.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- `voice-transcription` skill must be applied first (WhatsApp channel)
-- macOS with Apple Silicon (M1+) recommended
-- `whisper-cpp` installed: `brew install whisper-cpp` (provides the `whisper-cli` binary)
-- `ffmpeg` installed: `brew install ffmpeg`
-- A GGML model file downloaded to `data/models/`
-
-## Phase 1: Pre-flight
-
-### Check if already applied
-
-Check if `src/transcription.ts` already uses `whisper-cli`:
-
-```bash
-grep 'whisper-cli' src/transcription.ts && echo "Already applied" || echo "Not applied"
-```
-
-If already applied, skip to Phase 3 (Verify).
-
-### Check dependencies are installed
-
-```bash
-whisper-cli --help >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "WHISPER_OK" || echo "WHISPER_MISSING"
-ffmpeg -version >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "FFMPEG_OK" || echo "FFMPEG_MISSING"
-```
-
-If missing, install via Homebrew:
-```bash
-brew install whisper-cpp ffmpeg
-```
-
-### Check for model file
-
-```bash
-ls data/models/ggml-*.bin 2>/dev/null || echo "NO_MODEL"
-```
-
-If no model exists, download the base model (148MB, good balance of speed and accuracy):
-```bash
-mkdir -p data/models
-curl -L -o data/models/ggml-base.bin "https://huggingface.co/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/resolve/main/ggml-base.bin"
-```
-
-For better accuracy at the cost of speed, use `ggml-small.bin` (466MB) or `ggml-medium.bin` (1.5GB).
-
-## Phase 2: Apply Code Changes
-
-### Ensure WhatsApp fork remote
-
-```bash
-git remote -v
-```
-
-If `whatsapp` is missing, add it:
-
-```bash
-git remote add whatsapp https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw-whatsapp.git
-```
-
-### Merge the skill branch
-
-```bash
-git fetch whatsapp skill/local-whisper
-git merge whatsapp/skill/local-whisper || {
-  git checkout --theirs package-lock.json
-  git add package-lock.json
-  git merge --continue
-}
-```
-
-This modifies `src/transcription.ts` to use the `whisper-cli` binary instead of the OpenAI API.
-
-### Validate
-
-```bash
-npm run build
-```
-
-## Phase 3: Verify
-
-### Ensure launchd PATH includes Homebrew
-
-The NanoClaw launchd service runs with a restricted PATH. `whisper-cli` and `ffmpeg` are in `/opt/homebrew/bin/` (Apple Silicon) or `/usr/local/bin/` (Intel), which may not be in the plist's PATH.
-
-Check the current PATH:
-```bash
-grep -A1 'PATH' ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
-```
-
-If `/opt/homebrew/bin` is missing, add it to the `<string>` value inside the `PATH` key in the plist. Then reload:
-```bash
-launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
-launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nanoclaw.plist
-```
-
-### Build and restart
-
-```bash
-npm run build
-launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw
-```
-
-### Test
-
-Send a voice note in any registered group. The agent should receive it as `[Voice: <transcript>]`.
-
-### Check logs
-
-```bash
-tail -f logs/nanoclaw.log | grep -i -E "voice|transcri|whisper"
-```
-
-Look for:
-- `Transcribed voice message` — successful transcription
-- `whisper.cpp transcription failed` — check model path, ffmpeg, or PATH
-
-## Configuration
-
-Environment variables (optional, set in `.env`):
-
-| Variable | Default | Description |
-|----------|---------|-------------|
-| `WHISPER_BIN` | `whisper-cli` | Path to whisper.cpp binary |
-| `WHISPER_MODEL` | `data/models/ggml-base.bin` | Path to GGML model file |
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-**"whisper.cpp transcription failed"**: Ensure both `whisper-cli` and `ffmpeg` are in PATH. The launchd service uses a restricted PATH — see Phase 3 above. Test manually:
-```bash
-ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anullsrc=r=16000:cl=mono -t 1 -f wav /tmp/test.wav -y
-whisper-cli -m data/models/ggml-base.bin -f /tmp/test.wav --no-timestamps -nt
-```
-
-**Transcription works in dev but not as service**: The launchd plist PATH likely doesn't include `/opt/homebrew/bin`. See "Ensure launchd PATH includes Homebrew" in Phase 3.
-
-**Slow transcription**: The base model processes ~30s of audio in <1s on M1+. If slower, check CPU usage — another process may be competing.
-
-**Wrong language**: whisper.cpp auto-detects language. To force a language, you can set `WHISPER_LANG` and modify `src/transcription.ts` to pass `-l $WHISPER_LANG`.

@@ -4,9 +4,28 @@ All notable changes to NanoClaw will be documented in this file.
 
 For detailed release notes, see the [full changelog on the documentation site](https://docs.nanoclaw.dev/changelog).
 
+## [2.0.0] - 2026-04-22
+
+Major version. NanoClaw v2 is a substantial architectural rewrite. Existing forks should run `/migrate-nanoclaw` (clean-base replay of customizations) or `/update-nanoclaw` (selective cherry-pick) before resuming work.
+
+- [BREAKING] **New entity model.** Users, roles (owner/admin), messaging groups, and agent groups are now tracked as separate entities, wired via `messaging_group_agents`. Privilege is user-level instead of channel-level, so the old "main channel = admin" concept is retired. See [docs/architecture.md](docs/architecture.md) and [docs/isolation-model.md](docs/isolation-model.md).
+- [BREAKING] **Two-DB session split.** Each session now has `inbound.db` (host writes, container reads) and `outbound.db` (container writes, host reads) with exactly one writer each. Replaces the single shared session DB and eliminates cross-mount SQLite contention. See [docs/db-session.md](docs/db-session.md).
+- [BREAKING] **Install flow replaced.** `bash nanoclaw.sh` is the new default: a scripted installer that hands off to Claude Code for error recovery and guided decisions. The `/setup` Claude-guided skill still works as an alternative.
+- [BREAKING] **Channels moved to the `channels` branch.** Trunk no longer ships Discord, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, iMessage, Teams, Linear, GitHub, WeChat, Matrix, Google Chat, Webex, Resend, or WhatsApp Cloud. Install them per fork via `/add-<channel>` skills, which copy from the `channels` branch. `/update-nanoclaw` will re-install the channels your fork had.
+- [BREAKING] **Alternative providers moved to the `providers` branch.** OpenCode, Codex, and Ollama install via `/add-opencode`, `/add-codex`, `/add-ollama-provider`. Claude remains the default provider baked into trunk.
+- [BREAKING] **Three-level channel isolation.** Wire channels to their own agent (separate agent groups), share an agent with independent conversations (`session_mode: 'shared'`), or merge channels into one shared session (`session_mode: 'agent-shared'`). Chosen per channel via `/manage-channels`.
+- [BREAKING] **Apple Container removed from default setup.** Still available as an opt-in via `/convert-to-apple-container`.
+- **Shared-source agent-runner.** Per-group `agent-runner-src/` overlays are gone; all groups mount the same agent-runner read-only. Per-group customization flows through composed `CLAUDE.md` (shared base + per-group fragments).
+- **Agent-runner runtime moved from Node to Bun.** Container image is self-contained; no host-side impact. Host remains on Node + pnpm.
+- **OneCLI Agent Vault is the sole credential path.** Containers never receive raw API keys; credentials are injected at request time.
+
+## [1.2.36] - 2026-03-26
+
+- [BREAKING] Replaced pino logger with built-in logger. WhatsApp users must re-merge the WhatsApp fork to pick up the Baileys logger compatibility fix: `git fetch whatsapp main && git merge whatsapp/main`. If the `whatsapp` remote is not configured: `git remote add whatsapp https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw-whatsapp.git`.
+
 ## [1.2.35] - 2026-03-26
 
-- [BREAKING] OneCLI Agent Vault replaces the built-in credential proxy. Existing `.env` credentials must be migrated to the vault. Run `/init-onecli` to install OneCLI and migrate credentials.
+- [BREAKING] OneCLI Agent Vault replaces the built-in credential proxy. Check your runtime: `grep CONTAINER_RUNTIME_BIN src/container-runtime.ts` — if it shows `'container'` you are on Apple Container, if `'docker'` you are on Docker. Docker users: run `/init-onecli` to install OneCLI and migrate `.env` credentials to the vault. Apple Container users: re-merge the skill branch (`git fetch upstream skill/apple-container && git merge upstream/skill/apple-container`) then run `/convert-to-apple-container` and follow all instructions (configures credential proxy networking) — do NOT run `/init-onecli`, it requires Docker.

+**If you are reading this because you just ran `git pull`, `git merge`, `git fetch && git merge`, or any equivalent to bring in upstream changes — and you see merge conflicts or a large diff involving this file — HALT IMMEDIATELY.**
+
+This is NanoClaw v2, a ground-up rewrite with breaking changes throughout. It cannot be merged into an existing v1 install. Attempting to resolve the conflicts by hand, run builds, or "fix" anything will corrupt the user's install and burn tokens for no result.
+
+**Do this instead:**
+1. Abort the merge: `git merge --abort` (or `git reset --hard ORIG_HEAD` if the merge already completed).
+2. Tell the user, verbatim: *"This is the v2 rewrite — it can't be merged into your existing install. Run `bash migrate-v2.sh` to migrate instead."*
+3. Wait for the user to confirm before doing anything else. Do not attempt the migration yourself.
+
+If you are a fresh install (you ran `git clone`, not `git pull`) and there are no conflicts, ignore this banner and continue below.

+Personal Claude assistant. See [README.md](README.md) for philosophy and setup. Architecture lives in `docs/`.
 
 ## Quick Context
 
-Single Node.js process with skill-based channel system. Channels (WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Gmail) are skills that self-register at startup. Messages route to Claude Agent SDK running in containers (Linux VMs). Each group has isolated filesystem and memory.
+The host is a single Node process that orchestrates per-session agent containers. Platform messages land via channel adapters, route through an entity model (users → messaging groups → agent groups → sessions), get written into the session's inbound DB, and wake a container. The agent-runner inside the container polls the DB, calls Claude, and writes back to the outbound DB. The host polls the outbound DB and delivers through the same adapter.
+
+**Everything is a message.** There is no IPC, no file watcher, no stdin piping between host and container. The two session DBs are the sole IO surface.
+
+## Entity Model
+
+```
+users (id "<channel>:<handle>", kind, display_name)
+user_roles (user_id, role, agent_group_id)       — owner | admin (global or scoped)
+agent_group_members (user_id, agent_group_id)    — unprivileged access gate
+user_dms (user_id, channel_type, messaging_group_id) — cold-DM cache
+
+agent_groups (workspace, memory, CLAUDE.md, personality, container config)
+    ↕ many-to-many via messaging_group_agents (session_mode, trigger_rules, priority)
+messaging_groups (one chat/channel on one platform; unknown_sender_policy)
+
+sessions (agent_group_id + messaging_group_id + thread_id → per-session container)
+```
+
+Privilege is user-level (owner/admin), not agent-group-level. See [docs/isolation-model.md](docs/isolation-model.md) for the three isolation levels (`agent-shared`, `shared`, separate agents).
+
+## Two-DB Session Split
+
+Each session has **two** SQLite files under `data/v2-sessions/<session_id>/`:
+
+- `inbound.db` — host writes, container reads. `messages_in`, routing, destinations, pending_questions, processing_ack.
+- `outbound.db` — container writes, host reads. `messages_out`, session_state.
+
+Exactly one writer per file — no cross-mount lock contention. Heartbeat is a file touch at `/workspace/.heartbeat`, not a DB update. Host uses even `seq` numbers, container uses odd.
+
+## Central DB
+
+`data/v2.db` holds everything that isn't per-session: users, user_roles, agent_groups, messaging_groups, wiring, pending_approvals, user_dms, chat_sdk_* (for the Chat SDK bridge), schema_version. Migrations live at `src/db/migrations/`.

-## Secrets / Credentials / Proxy (OneCLI)
+## Channels and Providers (skill-installed)
 
-API keys, secret keys, OAuth tokens, and auth credentials are managed by the OneCLI gateway — which handles secret injection into containers at request time, so no keys or tokens are ever passed to containers directly. Run `onecli --help`.
+Trunk does not ship any specific channel adapter or non-default agent provider. The codebase is the registry/infra; the actual adapters and providers live on long-lived sibling branches and get copied in by skills:
+
+- **`channels` branch** — Discord, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, Teams, Linear, GitHub, iMessage, Webex, Resend, Matrix, Google Chat, WhatsApp Cloud (+ helpers, tests, channel-specific setup steps). Installed via `/add-<channel>` skills.
+- **`providers` branch** — OpenCode (and any future non-default agent providers). Installed via `/add-opencode`.
+
+Each `/add-<name>` skill is idempotent: `git fetch origin <branch>` → copy module(s) into the standard paths → append a self-registration import to the relevant barrel → `pnpm install <pkg>@<pinned-version>` → build.
+
+## Self-Modification
+
+One tier of agent self-modification today:
+
+1. **`install_packages` / `add_mcp_server`** — changes to the per-agent-group container config only (apt/npm deps, wire an existing MCP server). Single admin approval per request; on approve, the handler in `src/modules/self-mod/apply.ts` rebuilds the image when needed (`install_packages` only) and restarts the container. `container/agent-runner/src/mcp-tools/self-mod.ts`.
+
+A second tier (direct source-level self-edits via a draft/activate flow) is planned but not yet implemented.
+
+## Secrets / Credentials / OneCLI
+
+API keys, OAuth tokens, and auth credentials are managed by the OneCLI gateway. Secrets are injected into per-agent containers at request time — none are passed in env vars or through chat context. `src/onecli-approvals.ts`, `ensureAgent()` in `container-runner.ts`. Run `onecli --help`.
+
+### Gotcha: auto-created agents start in `selective` secret mode
+
+When the host first spawns a session for a new agent group, `container-runner.ts:385` calls `onecli.ensureAgent({ name, identifier })`. The OneCLI `POST /api/agents` endpoint creates the agent in **`selective`** secret mode — meaning **no secrets are assigned to it by default**, even if the secrets exist in the vault and have host patterns that would otherwise match.
+
+Symptom: container starts, the proxy + CA cert are wired correctly, but the agent gets `401 Unauthorized` (or similar) from APIs whose credentials *are* in the vault. The credential just isn't in this agent's allow-list.
+
+The SDK does not expose `setSecretMode` — the only fix is the CLI (or the web UI at `http://127.0.0.1:10254`).
+
+```bash
+# Find the agent (identifier is the agent group id)
+onecli agents list
+
+# Flip to "all" so every vault secret with a matching host pattern gets injected
+onecli agents set-secret-mode --id <agent-id> --mode all
+
+# Or, stay selective and assign specific secrets
+onecli secrets list                                    # find secret ids
+onecli agents set-secrets --id <agent-id> --secret-ids <id1>,<id2>
+
+# Inspect what an agent currently has
+onecli agents secrets --id <agent-id>                  # secrets assigned to this agent
+onecli secrets list                                    # all vault secrets (with host patterns)
+```
+
+If you've just enabled `mode all`, no container restart is needed — the gateway looks up secrets per request, so the next API call from the running container will see the new credentials.
+
+### Requiring approval for credential use
+
+Approval-gating credentialed actions is a **two-sided** flow:
+
+- **Server-side** (OneCLI gateway): decides *when* to hold a request and emit a pending approval. As of `onecli@1.3.0`, the CLI does **not** expose this — `rules create --action` only accepts `block` or `rate_limit`, and `secrets create` has no approval flag. Approval policies must be configured via the OneCLI web UI at `http://127.0.0.1:10254`. If/when the CLI grows an `approve` action, this section needs updating.
+- **Host-side** (nanoclaw): receives pending approvals and routes them to a human. `src/modules/approvals/onecli-approvals.ts` registers a callback via `onecli.configureManualApproval(cb)` (long-polls `GET /api/approvals/pending`). The callback uses `pickApprover` + `pickApprovalDelivery` from `src/modules/approvals/primitive.ts` to DM an approver. Approvers are resolved from the `user_roles` table — preference order: scoped admins for the agent group → global admins → owners. There is no env var like `NANOCLAW_ADMIN_USER_IDS`; roles are persisted in the central DB only.
+
+If approvals are configured server-side but the host callback isn't running (or throws), every credentialed call hangs until the gateway times out. Conversely, if the gateway has no rule asking for approval, the host callback never fires regardless of how it's wired.

+Container typecheck is a separate tsconfig — if you edit `container/agent-runner/src/`, run `pnpm exec tsc -p container/agent-runner/tsconfig.json --noEmit` from root (or `bun run typecheck` from `container/agent-runner/`).

-## Troubleshooting
+Host logs: `logs/nanoclaw.log` (normal) and `logs/nanoclaw.error.log` (errors only — some delivery/approval failures only show up here).
 
-**WhatsApp not connecting after upgrade:** WhatsApp is now a separate skill, not bundled in core. Run `/add-whatsapp` (or `npx tsx scripts/apply-skill.ts .claude/skills/add-whatsapp && npm run build`) to install it. Existing auth credentials and groups are preserved.
+## Supply Chain Security (pnpm)
+
+This project uses pnpm with `minimumReleaseAge: 4320` (3 days) in `pnpm-workspace.yaml`. New package versions must exist on the npm registry for 3 days before pnpm will resolve them.
+
+**Rules — do not bypass without explicit human approval:**
+- **`minimumReleaseAgeExclude`**: Never add entries without human sign-off. If a package must bypass the release age gate, the human must approve and the entry must pin the exact version being excluded (e.g. `package@1.2.3`), never a range.
+- **`onlyBuiltDependencies`**: Never add packages to this list without human approval — build scripts execute arbitrary code during install.
+- **`pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`** should be used in CI, automation, and container builds. Never run bare `pnpm install` in those contexts.

 ## Container Build Cache
 
 The container buildkit caches the build context aggressively. `--no-cache` alone does NOT invalidate COPY steps — the builder's volume retains stale files. To force a truly clean rebuild, prune the builder then re-run `./container/build.sh`.
+
+## Container Runtime (Bun)
+
+The agent container runs on **Bun**; the host runs on **Node** (pnpm). They communicate only via session DBs — no shared modules. Details and rationale: [docs/build-and-runtime.md](docs/build-and-runtime.md).
+
+**Gotchas — trigger + action:**
+
+- **Adding or bumping a runtime dep in `container/agent-runner/`** → edit `package.json`, then `cd container/agent-runner && bun install` and commit the updated `bun.lock`. Do not run `pnpm install` there — agent-runner is not a pnpm workspace.
+- **Bumping `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk`, `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk`, or any agent-runner runtime dep** → no `minimumReleaseAge` policy applies to this tree. Check the release date on npm, pin deliberately, never `bun update` blindly.
+- **Writing a new named-param SQL insert/update in the container** → use `$name` in both SQL and JS keys: `.run({ $id: msg.id })`. `bun:sqlite` does not auto-strip the prefix the way `better-sqlite3` does on the host. Positional `?` params work normally.
+- **Adding a test in `container/agent-runner/src/`** → import from `bun:test`, not `vitest`. Vitest runs on Node and can't load `bun:sqlite`. `vitest.config.ts` excludes this tree.
+- **Adding a Node CLI the agent invokes at runtime** (like `agent-browser`, `claude-code`, `vercel`) → put it in the Dockerfile's pnpm global-install block, pinned to an exact version via a new `ARG`. Don't use `bun install -g` — that bypasses the pnpm supply-chain policy.
+- **Changing the Dockerfile entrypoint or the dynamic-spawn command** (`src/container-runner.ts` line ~301) → keep `exec bun ...` so signals forward cleanly. The image has no `/app/dist`; don't reintroduce a tsc build step.
+- **Changing session-DB pragmas** (`container/agent-runner/src/db/connection.ts`) → `journal_mode=DELETE` is load-bearing for cross-mount visibility. Read the comment block at the top of the file first.
+
+## CJK font support
+
+Agent containers ship without CJK fonts by default (~200MB saved). If you notice signals the user works with Chinese/Japanese/Korean content — conversing in CJK, CJK timezone (e.g., `Asia/Tokyo`, `Asia/Shanghai`, `Asia/Seoul`, `Asia/Taipei`, `Asia/Hong_Kong`), system locale hint, or mentions of needing to render CJK in screenshots/PDFs/scraped pages — offer to enable it:
+
+```bash
+# Ensure .env has INSTALL_CJK_FONTS=true (overwrite or append)
+grep -q '^INSTALL_CJK_FONTS=' .env && sed -i.bak 's/^INSTALL_CJK_FONTS=.*/INSTALL_CJK_FONTS=true/' .env && rm -f .env.bak || echo 'INSTALL_CJK_FONTS=true' >> .env
+
+# Rebuild and restart so new sessions pick up the new image
+./container/build.sh
+launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.nanoclaw   # macOS
+# systemctl --user restart nanoclaw                # Linux
+```
+
+`container/build.sh` reads `INSTALL_CJK_FONTS` from `.env` and passes it through as a Docker build-arg. Without CJK fonts, Chromium-rendered screenshots and PDFs containing CJK text show tofu (empty rectangles) instead of characters.

Type them inside the `claude` CLI prompt, not in your regular terminal. If you don't have Claude Code installed, get it at [claude.com/product/claude-code](https://claude.com/product/claude-code).
+`nanoclaw.sh` walks you from a fresh machine to a named agent you can message. It installs Node, pnpm, and Docker if missing, registers your Anthropic credential with OneCLI, builds the agent container, and pairs your first channel (Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, or a local CLI). If a step fails, Claude Code is invoked automatically to diagnose and resume from where it broke.
 
 ## Philosophy
 
 **Small enough to understand.** One process, a few source files and no microservices. If you want to understand the full NanoClaw codebase, just ask Claude Code to walk you through it.
 
-**Secure by isolation.** Agents run in Linux containers (Apple Container on macOS, or Docker) and they can only see what's explicitly mounted. Bash access is safe because commands run inside the container, not on your host.
+**Secure by isolation.** Agents run in Linux containers and they can only see what's explicitly mounted. Bash access is safe because commands run inside the container, not on your host.
 
 **Built for the individual user.** NanoClaw isn't a monolithic framework; it's software that fits each user's exact needs. Instead of becoming bloatware, NanoClaw is designed to be bespoke. You make your own fork and have Claude Code modify it to match your needs.
 
 **Customization = code changes.** No configuration sprawl. Want different behavior? Modify the code. The codebase is small enough that it's safe to make changes.
 
-**AI-native.**
-- No installation wizard; Claude Code guides setup.
-- No monitoring dashboard; ask Claude what's happening.
-- No debugging tools; describe the problem and Claude fixes it.
+**AI-native, hybrid by design.** The install and onboarding flow is an optimized scripted path, fast and deterministic. When a step needs judgment, whether a failed install, a guided decision, or a customization, control hands off to Claude Code seamlessly. Beyond setup there's no monitoring dashboard or debugging UI either: describe the problem in chat and Claude Code handles it.
 
-**Skills over features.** Instead of adding features (e.g. support for Telegram) to the codebase, contributors submit [claude code skills](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/skills) like `/add-telegram` that transform your fork. You end up with clean code that does exactly what you need.
+**Skills over features.** Trunk ships the registry and infrastructure, not specific channel adapters or alternative agent providers. Channels (Discord, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, …) live on a long-lived `channels` branch; alternative providers (OpenCode, Ollama) live on `providers`. You run `/add-telegram`, `/add-opencode`, etc. and the skill copies exactly the module(s) you need into your fork. No feature you didn't ask for.
 
-**Best harness, best model.** NanoClaw runs on the Claude Agent SDK, which means you're running Claude Code directly. Claude Code is highly capable and its coding and problem-solving capabilities allow it to modify and expand NanoClaw and tailor it to each user.
+**Best harness, best model.** NanoClaw natively uses Claude Code via Anthropic's official Claude Agent SDK, so you get the latest Claude models and Claude Code's full toolset, including the ability to modify and expand your own NanoClaw fork. Other providers are drop-in options: `/add-codex` for OpenAI's Codex (ChatGPT subscription or API key), `/add-opencode` for OpenRouter, Google, DeepSeek and more via OpenCode, and `/add-ollama-provider` for local open-weight models. Provider is configurable per agent group.
 
 ## What It Supports
 
-- **Multi-channel messaging** - Talk to your assistant from WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, or Gmail. Add channels with skills like `/add-whatsapp` or `/add-telegram`. Run one or many at the same time.
-- **Isolated group context** - Each group has its own `CLAUDE.md` memory, isolated filesystem, and runs in its own container sandbox with only that filesystem mounted to it.
-- **Main channel** - Your private channel (self-chat) for admin control; every group is completely isolated
-- **Scheduled tasks** - Recurring jobs that run Claude and can message you back
-- **Web access** - Search and fetch content from the Web
-- **Container isolation** - Agents are sandboxed in Docker (macOS/Linux), [Docker Sandboxes](docs/docker-sandboxes.md) (micro VM isolation), or Apple Container (macOS)
-- **Credential security** - Agents never hold raw API keys. Outbound requests route through [OneCLI's Agent Vault](https://github.com/onecli/onecli), which injects credentials at request time and enforces per-agent policies and rate limits.
-- **Agent Swarms** - Spin up teams of specialized agents that collaborate on complex tasks
-- **Optional integrations** - Add Gmail (`/add-gmail`) and more via skills
+- **Multi-channel messaging** — WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Microsoft Teams, iMessage, Matrix, Google Chat, Webex, Linear, GitHub, WeChat, and email via Resend. Installed on demand with `/add-<channel>` skills. Run one or many at the same time.
+- **Flexible isolation** — connect each channel to its own agent for full privacy, share one agent across many channels for unified memory with separate conversations, or fold multiple channels into a single shared session so one conversation spans many surfaces. Pick per channel via `/manage-channels`. See [docs/isolation-model.md](docs/isolation-model.md).
+- **Per-agent workspace** — each agent group has its own `CLAUDE.md`, its own memory, its own container, and only the mounts you allow. Nothing crosses the boundary unless you wire it to.
+- **Scheduled tasks** — recurring jobs that run Claude and can message you back
+- **Web access** — search and fetch content from the web
+- **Container isolation** — agents are sandboxed in Docker (macOS/Linux/WSL2), with optional [Docker Sandboxes](docs/docker-sandboxes.md) micro-VM isolation or Apple Container as a macOS-native opt-in
+- **Credential security** — agents never hold raw API keys. Outbound requests route through [OneCLI's Agent Vault](https://github.com/onecli/onecli), which injects credentials at request time and enforces per-agent policies and rate limits.

 ```
-Channels --> SQLite --> Polling loop --> Container (Claude Agent SDK) --> Response
+messaging apps → host process (router) → inbound.db → container (Bun, Claude Agent SDK) → outbound.db → host process (delivery) → messaging apps
 ```
 
-Single Node.js process. Channels are added via skills and self-register at startup — the orchestrator connects whichever ones have credentials present. Agents execute in isolated Linux containers with filesystem isolation. Only mounted directories are accessible. Per-group message queue with concurrency control. IPC via filesystem.
+A single Node host orchestrates per-session agent containers. When a message arrives, the host routes it via the entity model (user → messaging group → agent group → session), writes it to the session's `inbound.db`, and wakes the container. The agent-runner inside the container polls `inbound.db`, runs Claude, and writes responses to `outbound.db`. The host polls `outbound.db` and delivers back through the channel adapter.
 
-For the full architecture details, see the [documentation site](https://docs.nanoclaw.dev/concepts/architecture).
+Two SQLite files per session, each with exactly one writer — no cross-mount contention, no IPC, no stdin piping. Channels and alternative providers self-register at startup; trunk ships the registry and the Chat SDK bridge, while the adapters themselves are skill-installed per fork.

 ## FAQ
 
 **Why Docker?**
 
-Docker provides cross-platform support (macOS, Linux and even Windows via WSL2) and a mature ecosystem. On macOS, you can optionally switch to Apple Container via `/convert-to-apple-container` for a lighter-weight native runtime. For additional isolation, [Docker Sandboxes](docs/docker-sandboxes.md) run each container inside a micro VM.

-Yes. NanoClaw supports any Claude API-compatible model endpoint. Set these environment variables in your `.env` file:
+Yes. The supported path is `/add-opencode` (OpenRouter, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, and more via OpenCode config) or `/add-ollama-provider` (local open-weight models via Ollama). Both are configurable per agent group, so different agents can run on different backends in the same install.

 **What changes will be accepted into the codebase?**
 
 Only security fixes, bug fixes, and clear improvements will be accepted to the base configuration. That's all.
