-# Agent context — Mathias workspace
-
-<!-- Canonical root context for all AI coding agents.
-     Lives at: ~/dev/.context/AGENT.md
-     Applies to every project under ~/dev/ unless overridden.

-## Who I am
-
-I'm Mathias, a digital product manager and technology consultant based in Sweden.
-I build software, research emerging tech, and deliver consulting engagements
-for clients under NDA. I work across AI/ML, financial automation, web applications,
-and climate/sustainability tech.
-
-## How I work with agents
-
-- I think like a product manager — I care about *why* before *how*
-- I want agents to be opinionated and push back, not just execute blindly
-- I prefer concise responses; skip ceremony and get to the point
-- When I say "build this", I mean production-quality with tests, not a demo
-- Ask me before making irreversible changes or adding heavy dependencies
-- I work with confidential client data — never send it to cloud APIs unless I explicitly say it's OK
-
-## Behavior rules
-
-These rules apply to every task across every project, regardless of harness.
-
-0. **Pre-task ritual — before ANY implementation (non-negotiable).** Run this before writing a single line:
-   - **Query the brain** (`brain_query`) for the domain + symptom. If the result changes your approach, surface it before acting. 5 seconds beats 5 hours.
-   - **Load the relevant skill** — see trigger table in *Engineering Skills* below.
-   - **Write the failing test first.** Name the test before the function. If the target is untestable (e.g. `main()` wiring), extract the logic into a testable function first. No implementation without a red test.
-   - **State the observable success criterion** — what specific behavior, output, or passing test proves this is done?
-
-   **TDD is non-negotiable.** "Tests pass" is not proof of correctness — only proof the tests ran. Write tests that would catch the bug before writing code that fixes it.
-
-1. **No assumptions.** Don't hide confusion — surface it. Surface tradeoffs explicitly.
-   Think before coding; if the problem is unclear, ask or state assumptions before acting.
-2. **Minimum viable code.** Solve with the smallest change that works. Nothing
-   speculative, no "while we're here" cleanups, no premature abstractions. Simplicity first.
-3. **Surgical changes.** Touch only what the task requires. Leave unrelated code,
-   files, and formatting alone. Diffs should be small and reviewable.
-4. **Goal-driven execution.** Define clear success criteria up front for every task.
-   Loop — implement, verify, refine — until those criteria are met. Don't claim
-   completion without evidence (tests pass, command output, observed behavior).
-5. **Trunk-Based Development — commit directly to main.** Every commit is one
-   logical change (one tool, one fix, one test) with passing tests. Main is always
-   deployable. Never create long-lived feature branches.
-
-   **The PR trigger is RISK, not concurrency.** `risk/low` work commits straight to
-   main with CI as the gate — that is most work and is unchanged. `risk/medium` and
-   above opens a PR, even solo, even with nobody waiting to review it. This mirrors
-   the tiered merge model in `assessor-loop`
-   `method/transfer-to-a-regulated-organisation.md` §4.1, so the estate practises
-   what it sells instead of merging everything on green and claiming otherwise.
-
-   **Concurrency is NOT a reason to branch.** Measured 2026-08-29 across three real
-   collisions between parallel sessions: two were not branching problems at all — a
-   generated artifact written to the same path by both (branching turns that into a
-   merge conflict on a 33k-line JSON), and uncommitted work in a shared checkout
-   (a per-session worktree fixes it) — and the third was an ordinary non-fast-forward
-   push resolved by rebase in seconds. Use a worktree per session on shared repos and
-   timestamp generated artifacts. Do not reach for a branch.
-
-   Branch+PR flow carries documented costs on solo repos: merging auto-closes gated
-   issues, review comments live on a thread separate from the issue's, and a
-   merged-and-deleted branch cannot be amended (brain:
-   `gitea-pr-merge-autoclose-and-review-comment-footguns`). Those are the price of
-   the `risk/medium`+ lane — paid deliberately, not incurred by accident.
-
-   **Exception — external contributor or client four-eyes requirement:** Use PR flow
-   when a human reviewer outside the project is required. Document the reason in
-   PROJECT.md.
-
-   **Exception — a GitOps repo where a branch cannot be reconciled.** In a repo whose
-   deployment watches one branch (`mathias/infra`: Flux watches `main`), a branch is
-   invisible to the thing that applies it. A `risk/medium` change to `alerts.yaml` or
-   `litellm-config.yaml` can be linted on a branch but never *exercised* there, so a
-   PR would buy a review of a state that was never deployed.
-
-   There, `risk/medium`+ work stays on `main` and instead requires a **recorded
-   adversarial review pass before the push** — `skills:pr-gatekeeper` or equivalent,
-   reviewing the staged diff. **The reviewer's verdict goes in the issue, not a PR
-   thread.** No verdict recorded means the lane was not used, and saying "the gate was
-   green" is not the same claim.
-
-   Be honest about what this is: a recorded *independent* pass, not four-eyes in the
-   sense `assessor-loop` §4.1 means for a regulated organisation, because the reviewer
-   is an agent. It is more than the repo had and less than the model it mirrors; do not
-   describe it as the stronger property. (infra#470, decided 2026-09-29.)
-
-   This lane depends on the `risk/` label being right. A label that triggers a heavier
-   lane is load-bearing, not cosmetic — if work that belongs in it is unlabelled, the
-   lane silently does not apply.
-
-6. **Close the loop — every substantive task ends with the same ritual.** Shipping
-   the code is not the end of the task; capturing it is. Run this unprompted:
-   - **Tag + bump SemVer** on the change (annotated tag; minor for a feature or
-     new/changed ADR, patch for a fix; docs in the same commit). Check the repo's
-     actual last tag — stated versions in docs drift stale.
-   - **Push** main and the tag (CI is the gate).
-   - **Persist generalizable learnings to the brain** (`brain_write`, wing/hall) —
-     the reusable patterns and the footguns that would bite anyone again, never
-     project status. See *Knowledge base — when to write* below.
-   - **File discovered-but-deferred work as tracker issues** on the project's own
-     repo — token-budget gaps, recorded ADR limitations, v2 follow-ups. Don't let
-     "out of scope, recorded" rot in a commit message; make it a ticket with a
-     source pointer.
-   - Surface the brain entries and issue numbers in the closing summary so the
-     trail is auditable.
-
-   **Chat is not a durable store. Never rely on Mathias remembering anything.**
-   Every gap, caveat, risk, open question and next step must land in one of four
-   places before the turn ends: **the brain**, **a repo** (code, docs, ADR),
-   **a tracker issue**, or **a plan file**. A finding stated only in conversation is
-   lost the moment the session closes — and this estate has repeatedly proved that a
-   remembered convention is an unreliable control.
-
-   This applies hardest to what is tempting to leave as a closing remark: "worth
-   knowing X isn't enforced yet", "this is a convention, not a gate", "we should
-   revisit Y". Those are exactly the items that need a locator. If it is worth
-   saying in a summary, it is worth writing where it can be found again without you.
-
-7. **Finish what's closable — only involve me for a genuine call.** If a
-   tracker issue, PR, or checklist item is demonstrably resolved — the fix
-   landed, the state changed, you verified it live — close/merge/check it off
-   in the same turn. Don't leave it open "for the record" or park it waiting
-   on me to confirm something that already happened; that's bookkeeping, not
-   a decision. Reserve asking me (`AskUserQuestion`, a `DECISION NEEDED`
-   comment, or otherwise pausing) for when it's genuinely mine to call:
-   irreversible or prod/host-impacting actions, a real judgment call with no
-   clearly-better option, ambiguous intent, or anything secret-writes/
-   destructive-git already gate. Before claiming something is closable,
-   verify it live (re-check the issue, re-run the command) rather than
-   trusting your own earlier summary (brain: `filed-issue-not-same-as-fixed`).
-
-8. **Control code needs an adversary, not a checklist.** Code whose job is to
-   refuse, deny, gate or contain is not adequately verified by a green gate.
-   Rule 5 makes CI the quality gate and that holds for ordinary work — but a
-   passing suite only asserts what its author already thought of, and for a
-   control the author is precisely the person whose imagination just failed.
-   Measured on `dispatch#75`: five review rounds, five real escapes verified by
-   execution, and **CI was green on every one of them** while `git rm
-   ././.dispatch-allow` deleted the file the control existed to protect. So
-   route this work through a review with authority to block, instructed to
-   verify by execution rather than by reading the implementation. Expect to be
-   blocked more than once; that is the control working, not the reviewer being
-   difficult. (brain: `a-green-gate-is-not-evidence-for-control-code`; the
-   practices live in the `pr-gatekeeper` agent.)
-
-9. **A test's name must not claim more than its assertions prove.** Name a test
-   after the mechanism it observes, not the goal it serves.
-   `DoesNotInheritEnv` is honest; `IsContained` is a claim the test cannot
-   support. This is not pedantry about naming — when name and assertion
-   diverge, the name wins in the reader's head and the gap becomes invisible,
-   which is what lets the defect survive review. Found three times in one PR,
-   twice in tests written to fix the previous instance of it; each passed while
-   the thing it was named for was exploitable. If you cannot name the mechanism,
-   you do not yet know what the test observes.
-
-## CAD sprint patterns
-
-Two CAD sprint archetypes (defs: brain `wiki/homelab/decisions/continuous-agentic-development-cad-concept-2026-06-16`):
-- **Inception Sprint** — birth a new repo. Oath-gated close; tag only once every clause holds. Brain: `.../inception-sprint-and-oath`.
-- **Sweep Sprint** — clear an existing backlog. Parallel read-only research per issue → sequential one-issue-per-commit execution. Brain: `.../sweep-sprint-and-oath`.
-
-Shared: decisions that are yours, not the agent's, surface as `DECISION NEEDED` (question/options/recommendation/blocks) — ask live if you're present, else comment and wait, never act past it. Live-breaking regressions get `git revert`, never forward-fixed; host-network work skips even read-only research (solo, synchronous, you present). Rule 6's closing ritual only fires once every Oath clause genuinely holds — blocked = descoped-and-tracked, never marked done.

-## Code conventions
-
-- **Go style**: golines, gofumpt, golangci-lint
-- **Python style** (fallback language): ruff (format+lint, one tool), mypy --strict (non-negotiable,
-  matches Go's static typing discipline), pytest + pytest-cov (table-driven via
-  `@pytest.mark.parametrize`), uv (venv+deps+lock, one tool), pydantic-settings (typed env-var config
-  — same principle as Go's typed structs), src-layout + `pyproject.toml` only (no `setup.py`)
-- **Errors**: `fmt.Errorf("operation: %w", err)` — never naked, never log-and-return.
-  Python: `raise X from e` (exception chaining, same principle) — never bare `except`, never silent `pass`
-- **Naming**: stdlib conventions, no stuttering
-- **Architecture**: prefer stdlib over frameworks, constructor injection, env-var config parsed into typed structs
-- **Git**: conventional commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`), commit directly to main,
-  one logical change per commit, CI is the quality gate
-- **Never**: long-lived feature branches, PRs for solo work, direct push without
-  passing `task check` locally first
-- **Security**: no secrets in code, govulncheck before adding deps, SOPS for encrypted config
-- **Dependencies**: prefer stdlib. testify, slog, templ, sqlc, google.golang.org/adk (agent projects only) are pre-approved; anything else needs justification in the commit message
-
-## Secret handling (every harness, every command)
-
-Tool output is persisted: terminal → `~/.claude/projects` transcripts →
-claudewatcher → brain/wiki → gitea history. A secret printed once is
-searchable forever, and clearing it means rotating the key. So:
-
-1. **Never print, echo, log, or transform a secret to inspect it.** No
-   `base64`/`xxd`/`cat` of a key, and never pipe a secret through a transform
-   to defeat `op run`'s output masking (it masks raw values; base64 hides them
-   from the mask — that exact trick leaked a key on 2026-06-11).
-2. **Secrets stay in the subprocess.** Reference them only as env vars consumed
-   *inside* `op run --env-file ~/.op-env -- <cmd>`. Never place a literal secret
-   in a command's argv (it lands in the tool call and the transcript).
-3. **Existence check without revealing the value:** `[ -n "$X" ] && echo set` —
-   never `${X:-...}` (returns the value when set) and never echo a substring of it.
-4. **Cross-host secrets:** run the secret-consuming command on the host that has
-   the secret; do not forward a raw key over ssh argv/stdout.
-5. If a secret does leak into output, say so immediately and flag it for rotation —
-   don't bury it.
-
-## Infrastructure
-
-Three machines on Tailscale:
-
-| Machine | Role | Key specs |
-|---------|------|-----------|
-| koala | GPU inference, heavy compute | RTX 5070, runs k3s + llama-swap + shared postgres18/pgvector |
-| iguana | Services, builds | M2 Ultra Mac |
-| flamingo | Daily driver, edge | Apple Silicon Mac, ~/dev is here |
-
-- **Model routing**: LiteLLM in front of llama-swap (local) + cloud APIs (when permitted)
-- **Orchestration**: k3s on koala only — single control-plane node, no workers (verified 2026-08-30). iguana and flamingo are on the tailnet but are not cluster members
-- **Networking**: Tailscale mesh
-
-## Project landscape
-
-All development repos live at `~/dev/` (softlink from `~/Documents/local-dev/`).
-
-Organized in thematic folders:
-
-| Folder | Focus | Count |
-|--------|-------|-------|
-| `GO/` | Go web frameworks, API integrations, learning projects | ~10 |
-| `AI/` | ML research, AI frameworks (FinRL, DSPy, crawl4ai) | ~6 |
-| `AGENTS/` | Autonomous agents, coding agents, MCP servers, infra | ~15 |
-| `QKX/` | Invoice processing, financial automation, payment systems | ~13 |
-| `XT/` | Climate data, sustainability (Klimatkollen, Garbo) | ~2 |
-
-See `~/dev/PROJECT_SUMMARY.md` for detailed descriptions of each project.
-
-### Key active projects
-
-- **super-koala** (`AGENTS/`) — multi-component agent stack with LangGraph, DSPy, MCP
-- **azure-tiger** (`QKX/`) — invoice extraction → ISO 20022 payment instructions
-- **gocrwl** (`AGENTS/`) — Go web crawler with containerized deployment
-- **koala-ai-stack** (`AGENTS/`) — local AI server infrastructure management
-- **klimatkollen** (`XT/`) — Swedish municipal climate data platform
-
-## Knowledge base — actively use it
-
-A persistent brain (BM25 search + LLM-synthesised Q&A) survives across sessions,
-hosts, and harnesses. It holds 100+ hard-won entries: infra incident postmortems,
-Go pitfalls, framework gotchas, design principles, ADRs. **It is not optional
-reference material — query it actively, not just when explicitly told.**
-
-### When to query (treat as a reflex)
-
-- **Before** starting a non-trivial task — search for prior art with the symptom
-  AND the system component ("how did we solve X in Y?"). 5 seconds beats 5 hours.
-- **When debugging** — search for the error string, the stack frame, the affected
-  service. Past you may have already paid this tax.
-- **Before adopting** a pattern, library, framework, or model name — check if it
-  was tried and rejected, or what the integration footguns are.
-- **When making architectural decisions** — search for the domain + "ADR" or
-  "decision" to find prior reasoning before re-deriving it.
-- **When a recommendation feels novel** — challenge yourself: "has this been
-  documented?" The brain often has it.
-
-### When to write
-
-After you discover something that **future-you would forget** and that **isn't
-recoverable from the code, git log, or PR description alone**:
-
-- Bugs whose root cause is non-obvious and generalisable beyond this project.
-- Framework / library / model-name quirks that bit you and would bite anyone.
-- Design principles validated under fire (e.g. "every `_get` needs a `_list`").
-- Postmortems for incidents: what broke, why, how diagnosed, what to do next time.
-
-DON'T write project status, sprint progress, PR summaries, or "what I did this
-session" — those rot fast and the originals are in git/gitea anyway. Brain
-entries that age well are about *why*, *how to avoid*, and *what to do when*.
-
-### How to access (per harness)
-
-| Harness | Query | Write |
-|---------|-------|-------|
-| **Claude Code, Claude Desktop** | `brain_query` (BM25), `brain_answer` (LLM-synth + sources) MCP tools | `brain_write` MCP tool |
-| **Crush, Pi, Antigravity, other MCP-capable** | same MCP server: `ingestion-brain` (via the `mcp__*_brain__*` namespace once authenticated) | same |
-| **Anything HTTP-only (curl, scripts)** | Tailnet only: `POST https://koala.tail30472e.ts.net:8443/query` with `{"query":"..."}`, sending `BRAIN_MCP_TOKEN` (not yet enforced on REST, hyperguild#149). The public `brain-mcp.d-ma.be` serves `/mcp` only (infra#517). | `POST .../write` with `{"content":"...","wing":"...","hall":"..."}` |
-| **Browser / human inspection** | `https://git.d-ma.be/mathias/hyperguild` → `knowledge/` and `wiki/` markdown files |
-
-- **Scoping — the brain holds no confidential client content.** Nothing on the read path
-  filters by client: every token holder can read every wing, and `wing` on `brain_query`
-  is an optional argument, not an access control. Client confidentiality is enforced only
-  at write time (`capture`'s I1 gate refuses internal/confidential). So never `brain_write`
-  client material; generalise it first or keep it in the client's own repo. (hyperguild#144,
-  decided 2026-10-01. This line previously claimed client projects were filtered; they
-  were not.)
-- **Routing**: brain_answer's LLM uses berget.ai as primary, iguana ollama as
-  fallback. Both are configurable in the `supervisor/ingestion-deployment.yaml`
-  on the koala k3s cluster; don't hardcode local-only model names into the
-  berget URL (see knowledge entry on namespace mismatches).
-
-### Quick reflex checks
-
-If you find yourself about to say any of these out loud, you owe yourself a brain query first:
-
-- "I think the issue might be..."
-- "Let me try X and see..."
-- "I'll just write a script to..."
-- "This is probably a new bug..."
-- "Has anyone done this before?" — *yes, probably, go check.*
-
-## Client work rules
-
-When working on a project tagged with a client name:
-1. Never send code, data, or context to cloud APIs — use local models only
-2. Never reference other client projects or their data
-3. Keep all artifacts within the client's git org / directory
-4. Treat everything as confidential unless told otherwise
-
-## Harness-agnostic principles
-
-Supported harnesses (2026-09-01) — Cursor and Aider were dropped; do not
-re-add adapters for them:
-- Claude Code, Antigravity, OpenCode, Mistral Vibe, Crush, Pi Coding Agent
-- Open WebUI, Charmbracelet Mods, or any tool that takes a system prompt string
-- Any other tool that reads `AGENTS.md`, which is the de facto convention
-
-The canonical source is always `.context/AGENT.md` (root) and `.context/PROJECT.md` (per-project).
-Derived files are committed (see *How context propagates* below) so a `git pull` on any host yields full agent context with no setup.
-
-## How context propagates
-
-Canonical sources of truth:
-- Universal: `~/dev/.context/AGENT.md` (this file)
-- Project: `<repo>/.context/PROJECT.md` (per-repo)
-
-Derived files (committed, regenerated by `task context:sync`):
-- `CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `.context/system-prompt.txt`
-
-Repos still carrying `.cursorrules`, `.aider.conventions.md` or
-`.aider.conf.yml` are stale: nothing regenerates them. Delete them the next time
-you touch the repo, along with their entries in that repo's `task check`
-assertion.
-
-Workflow:
-1. Edit a canonical file. Run `task context:sync`. Commit canonical and
-   derived together. Push.
-2. On any other host, `git pull` brings both. Which file a harness reads does
-   NOT split cleanly by lookup strategy, so do not reason from the strategy:
-   - `CLAUDE.md` — Claude Code (walks up the tree)
-   - `AGENTS.md` — Crush, Pi, Antigravity (cwd-only), OpenCode (project root,
-     global at `~/.config/opencode/AGENTS.md`), and Mistral Vibe, which **walks
-     up** from cwd and takes the first `AGENTS.md` it finds
-     (user-level `~/.vibe/AGENTS.md`)
-   - `.context/system-prompt.txt` — Open WebUI, Mods, raw API calls; not read by
-     any harness, it is for pasting
-
-   Vibe tree-walks for `AGENTS.md`, so "tree-walkers use CLAUDE.md" is false.
-   Each repo's `AGENTS.md` embeds the canonical and is the first one found from
-   inside that repo, so this works — but by construction, not by luck.
-3. `task check` runs `context:sync` then asserts `git status --porcelain`
-   is empty over the derived files (catches both modified-tracked drift
-   and missing-untracked adapters). A drift fails the check with a
-   message telling you to stage the regenerated files.
-
-Behavior rules in this file and per-project rules in `PROJECT.md` apply on every
-host and every harness.
-
-**Where a project rule contradicts a rule here, the project rule governs — and it
-must state its reason.** Both halves matter: the project file wins because it knows
-something this file cannot (infra's Flux constraint is real and not visible from
-here), and it must say why because a bare override is indistinguishable from drift.
-
-This replaces the previous wording, which said rules here and in `PROJECT.md` both
-apply *"unconditionally"*. That was not a tiebreak but a contradiction, and it went
-unnoticed until rule 5 and infra's "never create feature branches" had to be obeyed
-at the same time (infra#470). A standard can hold two individually sensible clauses
-that are jointly unsatisfiable, and survive for as long as everyone reads it
-charitably — the same failure the Inception Sprint Oath's G6 had.
-
-## Engineering Skills
-
-Shared engineering skills live in the **`mathias/skills`** repo (`git.d-ma.be/mathias/skills`). Load at task start — not "on demand" but on schedule, before writing code. Browse `SKILLS_INDEX.md` for the full list.
-
-**Claude Code** installs the repo as a plugin from the marketplace the same repo hosts. That path also carries the `secret-guard` and `pre-task-ritual` hooks and the brain/gitea/infra MCP servers, which symlinks cannot:
-
-```
-/plugin marketplace add https://git.d-ma.be/mathias/skills.git
-/plugin install skills@mathias
-```
-
-Skills are **namespaced** under Claude Code: load `tdd` as `skills:tdd`. The trigger table below uses bare names — prefix them.

-**Crush, Pi and OpenCode** have no plugin system and are wired by `install.sh` as one directory symlink per harness via `~/.agents/skills`. Do not clone the checkout into `~/dev`: that folder is iCloud-shared between the Macs and spans two path roots (`/Users/mathias` vs `/home/mathias` on koala), so a checkout there is a git working tree with two concurrent writers, and any absolute symlink stored in it is broken on one side by construction (skills#23). Leave `SKILLS_CHECKOUT_DIR` at its host-local default.

-Check a host with `task doctor` in the skills repo; it also runs automatically at session start via the plugin.

-#!/usr/bin/env bash
-# Build an OCI image with buildctl and push it to the local registry.
-#
-# CANONICAL COPY: mathias/infra ci-templates/build-image.sh (infra#309).
-# Every repo carries a byte-identical copy at .gitea/build-image.sh, written by
-# `task ci:sync` and held in place by the drift gate. DO NOT EDIT THE COPIES --
-# edit here, re-sync, and the gate will tell you which repos still disagree.
-#
-# Why this exists: this step was hand-copied into a dozen repos, so migrating it
-# off rootless buildah (infra#241) meant eleven near-identical commits, eleven
-# verifications, and three separate rediscoveries of the same fix in the two
-# repo templates and the gitea-ci skill. The differences between the copies were
-# incidental -- a label here, a build-arg there -- never intentional. Those are
-# inputs now, not forks of the implementation.
-#
-# Why buildctl and not buildah: the gitea-runner pod runs with
-# `capabilities: drop [ALL]` and `allowPrivilegeEscalation: false`, which
-# unconditionally blocks the setuid-root exec that rootless buildah's uid/gid
-# remapping needs, and the pod has no OCI runtime at all. buildctl is a thin
-# client -- it hands the build to the host's buildkitd over a socket, so the
-# privileged layer work happens on the host and this pod's securityContext is
-# not in the picture. buildah is absent from the runner image as of baked-v14
-# and its absence is asserted at pod start (infra#308).
-#
-# Inputs, all via environment:
-#
-#   IMAGE            (required) image name, e.g. cobalt-dingo
-#   REGISTRY         default localhost:5000
-#   SHA_TAG          default `git rev-parse --short HEAD`
-#   VERSION_TAG      optional extra tag, e.g. v1.2.3 on a tag build
-#   PUSH_LATEST      default 1; set 0 to skip the :latest tag
-#   CONTEXT          default . -- build context directory
-#   DOCKERFILE_DIR   default $CONTEXT -- directory holding the Dockerfile
-#   DOCKERFILE_NAME  optional, when the file is not named `Dockerfile`
-#   TARGET           optional, multi-stage build target (--opt target=)
-#   BUILD_ARGS       optional, space-separated K=V pairs
-#   BUILD_SECRETS    optional, space-separated buildkit secret specs, each
-#                    `id=NAME,src=PATH`. Pass the SPEC only -- the caller
-#                    writes the secret to PATH itself. A secret VALUE must
-#                    never be passed here: it would land in this script's
-#                    argv and therefore in the CI log.
-#   EXTRA_LABELS     optional, space-separated K=V pairs
-#   GIT_SHA          optional, stamped as org.opencontainers.image.revision

-<!-- Canonical root context for all AI coding agents.
-     Lives at: ~/dev/.context/AGENT.md
-     Applies to every project under ~/dev/ unless overridden.

-     Run `task context:sync` from ~/dev/ to regenerate harness-specific files.
-     Project-level context in .context/PROJECT.md layers on top of this. -->
-
-## Who I am
-
-I'm Mathias, a digital product manager and technology consultant based in Sweden.
-I build software, research emerging tech, and deliver consulting engagements
-for clients under NDA. I work across AI/ML, financial automation, web applications,
-and climate/sustainability tech.
-
-## How I work with agents
-
-- I think like a product manager — I care about *why* before *how*
-- I want agents to be opinionated and push back, not just execute blindly
-- I prefer concise responses; skip ceremony and get to the point
-- When I say "build this", I mean production-quality with tests, not a demo
-- Ask me before making irreversible changes or adding heavy dependencies
-- I work with confidential client data — never send it to cloud APIs unless I explicitly say it's OK
-
-## Behavior rules
-
-These rules apply to every task across every project, regardless of harness.
-
-0. **Pre-task ritual — before ANY implementation (non-negotiable).** Run this before writing a single line:
-   - **Query the brain** (`brain_query`) for the domain + symptom. If the result changes your approach, surface it before acting. 5 seconds beats 5 hours.
-   - **Load the relevant skill** — see trigger table in *Engineering Skills* below.
-   - **Write the failing test first.** Name the test before the function. If the target is untestable (e.g. `main()` wiring), extract the logic into a testable function first. No implementation without a red test.
-   - **State the observable success criterion** — what specific behavior, output, or passing test proves this is done?
-
-   **TDD is non-negotiable.** "Tests pass" is not proof of correctness — only proof the tests ran. Write tests that would catch the bug before writing code that fixes it.
-
-1. **No assumptions.** Don't hide confusion — surface it. Surface tradeoffs explicitly.
-   Think before coding; if the problem is unclear, ask or state assumptions before acting.
-2. **Minimum viable code.** Solve with the smallest change that works. Nothing
-   speculative, no "while we're here" cleanups, no premature abstractions. Simplicity first.
-3. **Surgical changes.** Touch only what the task requires. Leave unrelated code,
-   files, and formatting alone. Diffs should be small and reviewable.
-4. **Goal-driven execution.** Define clear success criteria up front for every task.
-   Loop — implement, verify, refine — until those criteria are met. Don't claim
-   completion without evidence (tests pass, command output, observed behavior).
-5. **Trunk-Based Development — commit directly to main.** Every commit is one
-   logical change (one tool, one fix, one test) with passing tests. Main is always
-   deployable. Never create long-lived feature branches.
-
-   **The PR trigger is RISK, not concurrency.** `risk/low` work commits straight to
-   main with CI as the gate — that is most work and is unchanged. `risk/medium` and
-   above opens a PR, even solo, even with nobody waiting to review it. This mirrors
-   the tiered merge model in `assessor-loop`
-   `method/transfer-to-a-regulated-organisation.md` §4.1, so the estate practises
-   what it sells instead of merging everything on green and claiming otherwise.
-
-   **Concurrency is NOT a reason to branch.** Measured 2026-08-29 across three real
-   collisions between parallel sessions: two were not branching problems at all — a
-   generated artifact written to the same path by both (branching turns that into a
-   merge conflict on a 33k-line JSON), and uncommitted work in a shared checkout
-   (a per-session worktree fixes it) — and the third was an ordinary non-fast-forward
-   push resolved by rebase in seconds. Use a worktree per session on shared repos and
-   timestamp generated artifacts. Do not reach for a branch.
-
-   Branch+PR flow carries documented costs on solo repos: merging auto-closes gated
-   issues, review comments live on a thread separate from the issue's, and a
-   merged-and-deleted branch cannot be amended (brain:
-   `gitea-pr-merge-autoclose-and-review-comment-footguns`). Those are the price of
-   the `risk/medium`+ lane — paid deliberately, not incurred by accident.
-
-   **Exception — external contributor or client four-eyes requirement:** Use PR flow
-   when a human reviewer outside the project is required. Document the reason in
-   PROJECT.md.
-
-   **Exception — a GitOps repo where a branch cannot be reconciled.** In a repo whose
-   deployment watches one branch (`mathias/infra`: Flux watches `main`), a branch is
-   invisible to the thing that applies it. A `risk/medium` change to `alerts.yaml` or
-   `litellm-config.yaml` can be linted on a branch but never *exercised* there, so a
-   PR would buy a review of a state that was never deployed.
-
-   There, `risk/medium`+ work stays on `main` and instead requires a **recorded
-   adversarial review pass before the push** — `skills:pr-gatekeeper` or equivalent,
-   reviewing the staged diff. **The reviewer's verdict goes in the issue, not a PR
-   thread.** No verdict recorded means the lane was not used, and saying "the gate was
-   green" is not the same claim.
-
-   Be honest about what this is: a recorded *independent* pass, not four-eyes in the
-   sense `assessor-loop` §4.1 means for a regulated organisation, because the reviewer
-   is an agent. It is more than the repo had and less than the model it mirrors; do not
-   describe it as the stronger property. (infra#470, decided 2026-09-29.)
-
-   This lane depends on the `risk/` label being right. A label that triggers a heavier
-   lane is load-bearing, not cosmetic — if work that belongs in it is unlabelled, the
-   lane silently does not apply.
-
-6. **Close the loop — every substantive task ends with the same ritual.** Shipping
-   the code is not the end of the task; capturing it is. Run this unprompted:
-   - **Tag + bump SemVer** on the change (annotated tag; minor for a feature or
-     new/changed ADR, patch for a fix; docs in the same commit). Check the repo's
-     actual last tag — stated versions in docs drift stale.
-   - **Push** main and the tag (CI is the gate).
-   - **Persist generalizable learnings to the brain** (`brain_write`, wing/hall) —
-     the reusable patterns and the footguns that would bite anyone again, never
-     project status. See *Knowledge base — when to write* below.
-   - **File discovered-but-deferred work as tracker issues** on the project's own
-     repo — token-budget gaps, recorded ADR limitations, v2 follow-ups. Don't let
-     "out of scope, recorded" rot in a commit message; make it a ticket with a
-     source pointer.
-   - Surface the brain entries and issue numbers in the closing summary so the
-     trail is auditable.
-
-   **Chat is not a durable store. Never rely on Mathias remembering anything.**
-   Every gap, caveat, risk, open question and next step must land in one of four
-   places before the turn ends: **the brain**, **a repo** (code, docs, ADR),
-   **a tracker issue**, or **a plan file**. A finding stated only in conversation is
-   lost the moment the session closes — and this estate has repeatedly proved that a
-   remembered convention is an unreliable control.
-
-   This applies hardest to what is tempting to leave as a closing remark: "worth
-   knowing X isn't enforced yet", "this is a convention, not a gate", "we should
-   revisit Y". Those are exactly the items that need a locator. If it is worth
-   saying in a summary, it is worth writing where it can be found again without you.
-
-7. **Finish what's closable — only involve me for a genuine call.** If a
-   tracker issue, PR, or checklist item is demonstrably resolved — the fix
-   landed, the state changed, you verified it live — close/merge/check it off
-   in the same turn. Don't leave it open "for the record" or park it waiting
-   on me to confirm something that already happened; that's bookkeeping, not
-   a decision. Reserve asking me (`AskUserQuestion`, a `DECISION NEEDED`
-   comment, or otherwise pausing) for when it's genuinely mine to call:
-   irreversible or prod/host-impacting actions, a real judgment call with no
-   clearly-better option, ambiguous intent, or anything secret-writes/
-   destructive-git already gate. Before claiming something is closable,
-   verify it live (re-check the issue, re-run the command) rather than
-   trusting your own earlier summary (brain: `filed-issue-not-same-as-fixed`).
-
-8. **Control code needs an adversary, not a checklist.** Code whose job is to
-   refuse, deny, gate or contain is not adequately verified by a green gate.
-   Rule 5 makes CI the quality gate and that holds for ordinary work — but a
-   passing suite only asserts what its author already thought of, and for a
-   control the author is precisely the person whose imagination just failed.
-   Measured on `dispatch#75`: five review rounds, five real escapes verified by
-   execution, and **CI was green on every one of them** while `git rm
-   ././.dispatch-allow` deleted the file the control existed to protect. So
-   route this work through a review with authority to block, instructed to
-   verify by execution rather than by reading the implementation. Expect to be
-   blocked more than once; that is the control working, not the reviewer being
-   difficult. (brain: `a-green-gate-is-not-evidence-for-control-code`; the
-   practices live in the `pr-gatekeeper` agent.)
-
-9. **A test's name must not claim more than its assertions prove.** Name a test
-   after the mechanism it observes, not the goal it serves.
-   `DoesNotInheritEnv` is honest; `IsContained` is a claim the test cannot
-   support. This is not pedantry about naming — when name and assertion
-   diverge, the name wins in the reader's head and the gap becomes invisible,
-   which is what lets the defect survive review. Found three times in one PR,
-   twice in tests written to fix the previous instance of it; each passed while
-   the thing it was named for was exploitable. If you cannot name the mechanism,
-   you do not yet know what the test observes.
-
-## CAD sprint patterns
-
-Two CAD sprint archetypes (defs: brain `wiki/homelab/decisions/continuous-agentic-development-cad-concept-2026-06-16`):
-- **Inception Sprint** — birth a new repo. Oath-gated close; tag only once every clause holds. Brain: `.../inception-sprint-and-oath`.
-- **Sweep Sprint** — clear an existing backlog. Parallel read-only research per issue → sequential one-issue-per-commit execution. Brain: `.../sweep-sprint-and-oath`.
-
-Shared: decisions that are yours, not the agent's, surface as `DECISION NEEDED` (question/options/recommendation/blocks) — ask live if you're present, else comment and wait, never act past it. Live-breaking regressions get `git revert`, never forward-fixed; host-network work skips even read-only research (solo, synchronous, you present). Rule 6's closing ritual only fires once every Oath clause genuinely holds — blocked = descoped-and-tracked, never marked done.

-| Layer | Default | Fallback | Last resort |
-|-------|---------|----------|-------------|

-
-## Code conventions
-
-- **Go style**: golines, gofumpt, golangci-lint
-- **Python style** (fallback language): ruff (format+lint, one tool), mypy --strict (non-negotiable,
-  matches Go's static typing discipline), pytest + pytest-cov (table-driven via
-  `@pytest.mark.parametrize`), uv (venv+deps+lock, one tool), pydantic-settings (typed env-var config
-  — same principle as Go's typed structs), src-layout + `pyproject.toml` only (no `setup.py`)
-- **Errors**: `fmt.Errorf("operation: %w", err)` — never naked, never log-and-return.
-  Python: `raise X from e` (exception chaining, same principle) — never bare `except`, never silent `pass`
-- **Naming**: stdlib conventions, no stuttering
-- **Architecture**: prefer stdlib over frameworks, constructor injection, env-var config parsed into typed structs
-- **Git**: conventional commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`), commit directly to main,
-  one logical change per commit, CI is the quality gate
-- **Never**: long-lived feature branches, PRs for solo work, direct push without
-  passing `task check` locally first
-- **Security**: no secrets in code, govulncheck before adding deps, SOPS for encrypted config
-- **Dependencies**: prefer stdlib. testify, slog, templ, sqlc, google.golang.org/adk (agent projects only) are pre-approved; anything else needs justification in the commit message
-
-## Secret handling (every harness, every command)
-
-Tool output is persisted: terminal → `~/.claude/projects` transcripts →
-claudewatcher → brain/wiki → gitea history. A secret printed once is
-searchable forever, and clearing it means rotating the key. So:
-
-1. **Never print, echo, log, or transform a secret to inspect it.** No
-   `base64`/`xxd`/`cat` of a key, and never pipe a secret through a transform
-   to defeat `op run`'s output masking (it masks raw values; base64 hides them
-   from the mask — that exact trick leaked a key on 2026-06-11).
-2. **Secrets stay in the subprocess.** Reference them only as env vars consumed
-   *inside* `op run --env-file ~/.op-env -- <cmd>`. Never place a literal secret
-   in a command's argv (it lands in the tool call and the transcript).
-3. **Existence check without revealing the value:** `[ -n "$X" ] && echo set` —
-   never `${X:-...}` (returns the value when set) and never echo a substring of it.
-4. **Cross-host secrets:** run the secret-consuming command on the host that has
-   the secret; do not forward a raw key over ssh argv/stdout.
-5. If a secret does leak into output, say so immediately and flag it for rotation —
-   don't bury it.
-
-## Infrastructure
-
-Three machines on Tailscale:
-
-| Machine | Role | Key specs |
-|---------|------|-----------|
-| koala | GPU inference, heavy compute | RTX 5070, runs k3s + llama-swap + shared postgres18/pgvector |
-| iguana | Services, builds | M2 Ultra Mac |
-| flamingo | Daily driver, edge | Apple Silicon Mac, ~/dev is here |
-
-- **Model routing**: LiteLLM in front of llama-swap (local) + cloud APIs (when permitted)
-- **Orchestration**: k3s on koala only — single control-plane node, no workers (verified 2026-08-30). iguana and flamingo are on the tailnet but are not cluster members
-- **Networking**: Tailscale mesh
-
-## Project landscape
-
-All development repos live at `~/dev/` (softlink from `~/Documents/local-dev/`).
-
-Organized in thematic folders:
-
-| Folder | Focus | Count |
-|--------|-------|-------|
-| `GO/` | Go web frameworks, API integrations, learning projects | ~10 |
-| `AI/` | ML research, AI frameworks (FinRL, DSPy, crawl4ai) | ~6 |
-| `AGENTS/` | Autonomous agents, coding agents, MCP servers, infra | ~15 |
-| `QKX/` | Invoice processing, financial automation, payment systems | ~13 |
-| `XT/` | Climate data, sustainability (Klimatkollen, Garbo) | ~2 |
-
-See `~/dev/PROJECT_SUMMARY.md` for detailed descriptions of each project.
-
-### Key active projects
-
-- **super-koala** (`AGENTS/`) — multi-component agent stack with LangGraph, DSPy, MCP
-- **azure-tiger** (`QKX/`) — invoice extraction → ISO 20022 payment instructions
-- **gocrwl** (`AGENTS/`) — Go web crawler with containerized deployment
-- **koala-ai-stack** (`AGENTS/`) — local AI server infrastructure management
-- **klimatkollen** (`XT/`) — Swedish municipal climate data platform
-
-## Knowledge base — actively use it
-
-A persistent brain (BM25 search + LLM-synthesised Q&A) survives across sessions,
-hosts, and harnesses. It holds 100+ hard-won entries: infra incident postmortems,
-Go pitfalls, framework gotchas, design principles, ADRs. **It is not optional
-reference material — query it actively, not just when explicitly told.**
-
-### When to query (treat as a reflex)
-
-- **Before** starting a non-trivial task — search for prior art with the symptom
-  AND the system component ("how did we solve X in Y?"). 5 seconds beats 5 hours.
-- **When debugging** — search for the error string, the stack frame, the affected
-  service. Past you may have already paid this tax.
-- **Before adopting** a pattern, library, framework, or model name — check if it
-  was tried and rejected, or what the integration footguns are.
-- **When making architectural decisions** — search for the domain + "ADR" or
-  "decision" to find prior reasoning before re-deriving it.
-- **When a recommendation feels novel** — challenge yourself: "has this been
-  documented?" The brain often has it.
-
-### When to write
-
-After you discover something that **future-you would forget** and that **isn't
-recoverable from the code, git log, or PR description alone**:
-
-- Bugs whose root cause is non-obvious and generalisable beyond this project.
-- Framework / library / model-name quirks that bit you and would bite anyone.
-- Design principles validated under fire (e.g. "every `_get` needs a `_list`").
-- Postmortems for incidents: what broke, why, how diagnosed, what to do next time.
-
-DON'T write project status, sprint progress, PR summaries, or "what I did this
-session" — those rot fast and the originals are in git/gitea anyway. Brain
-entries that age well are about *why*, *how to avoid*, and *what to do when*.
-
-### How to access (per harness)
-
-| Harness | Query | Write |
-|---------|-------|-------|
-| **Claude Code, Claude Desktop** | `brain_query` (BM25), `brain_answer` (LLM-synth + sources) MCP tools | `brain_write` MCP tool |
-| **Crush, Pi, Antigravity, other MCP-capable** | same MCP server: `ingestion-brain` (via the `mcp__*_brain__*` namespace once authenticated) | same |
-| **Anything HTTP-only (curl, scripts)** | Tailnet only: `POST https://koala.tail30472e.ts.net:8443/query` with `{"query":"..."}`, sending `BRAIN_MCP_TOKEN` (not yet enforced on REST, hyperguild#149). The public `brain-mcp.d-ma.be` serves `/mcp` only (infra#517). | `POST .../write` with `{"content":"...","wing":"...","hall":"..."}` |
-| **Browser / human inspection** | `https://git.d-ma.be/mathias/hyperguild` → `knowledge/` and `wiki/` markdown files |
-
-- **Scoping — the brain holds no confidential client content.** Nothing on the read path
-  filters by client: every token holder can read every wing, and `wing` on `brain_query`
-  is an optional argument, not an access control. Client confidentiality is enforced only
-  at write time (`capture`'s I1 gate refuses internal/confidential). So never `brain_write`
-  client material; generalise it first or keep it in the client's own repo. (hyperguild#144,
-  decided 2026-10-01. This line previously claimed client projects were filtered; they
-  were not.)
-- **Routing**: brain_answer's LLM uses berget.ai as primary, iguana ollama as
-  fallback. Both are configurable in the `supervisor/ingestion-deployment.yaml`
-  on the koala k3s cluster; don't hardcode local-only model names into the
-  berget URL (see knowledge entry on namespace mismatches).
-
-### Quick reflex checks
-
-If you find yourself about to say any of these out loud, you owe yourself a brain query first:
-
-- "I think the issue might be..."
-- "Let me try X and see..."
-- "I'll just write a script to..."
-- "This is probably a new bug..."
-- "Has anyone done this before?" — *yes, probably, go check.*
-
-## Client work rules
-
-When working on a project tagged with a client name:
-1. Never send code, data, or context to cloud APIs — use local models only
-2. Never reference other client projects or their data
-3. Keep all artifacts within the client's git org / directory
-4. Treat everything as confidential unless told otherwise
-
-## Harness-agnostic principles
-
-Supported harnesses (2026-09-01) — Cursor and Aider were dropped; do not
-re-add adapters for them:
-- Claude Code, Antigravity, OpenCode, Mistral Vibe, Crush, Pi Coding Agent
-- Open WebUI, Charmbracelet Mods, or any tool that takes a system prompt string
-- Any other tool that reads `AGENTS.md`, which is the de facto convention
-
-The canonical source is always `.context/AGENT.md` (root) and `.context/PROJECT.md` (per-project).
-Derived files are committed (see *How context propagates* below) so a `git pull` on any host yields full agent context with no setup.
-
-## How context propagates
-
-Canonical sources of truth:
-- Universal: `~/dev/.context/AGENT.md` (this file)
-- Project: `<repo>/.context/PROJECT.md` (per-repo)
-
-Derived files (committed, regenerated by `task context:sync`):
-- `CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `.context/system-prompt.txt`
-
-Repos still carrying `.cursorrules`, `.aider.conventions.md` or
-`.aider.conf.yml` are stale: nothing regenerates them. Delete them the next time
-you touch the repo, along with their entries in that repo's `task check`
-assertion.
-
-Workflow:
-1. Edit a canonical file. Run `task context:sync`. Commit canonical and
-   derived together. Push.
-2. On any other host, `git pull` brings both. Which file a harness reads does
-   NOT split cleanly by lookup strategy, so do not reason from the strategy:
-   - `CLAUDE.md` — Claude Code (walks up the tree)
-   - `AGENTS.md` — Crush, Pi, Antigravity (cwd-only), OpenCode (project root,
-     global at `~/.config/opencode/AGENTS.md`), and Mistral Vibe, which **walks
-     up** from cwd and takes the first `AGENTS.md` it finds
-     (user-level `~/.vibe/AGENTS.md`)
-   - `.context/system-prompt.txt` — Open WebUI, Mods, raw API calls; not read by
-     any harness, it is for pasting
-
-   Vibe tree-walks for `AGENTS.md`, so "tree-walkers use CLAUDE.md" is false.
-   Each repo's `AGENTS.md` embeds the canonical and is the first one found from
-   inside that repo, so this works — but by construction, not by luck.
-3. `task check` runs `context:sync` then asserts `git status --porcelain`
-   is empty over the derived files (catches both modified-tracked drift
-   and missing-untracked adapters). A drift fails the check with a
-   message telling you to stage the regenerated files.
-
-Behavior rules in this file and per-project rules in `PROJECT.md` apply on every
-host and every harness.
-
-**Where a project rule contradicts a rule here, the project rule governs — and it
-must state its reason.** Both halves matter: the project file wins because it knows
-something this file cannot (infra's Flux constraint is real and not visible from
-here), and it must say why because a bare override is indistinguishable from drift.
-
-This replaces the previous wording, which said rules here and in `PROJECT.md` both
-apply *"unconditionally"*. That was not a tiebreak but a contradiction, and it went
-unnoticed until rule 5 and infra's "never create feature branches" had to be obeyed
-at the same time (infra#470). A standard can hold two individually sensible clauses
-that are jointly unsatisfiable, and survive for as long as everyone reads it
-charitably — the same failure the Inception Sprint Oath's G6 had.
-
-## Engineering Skills
-
-Shared engineering skills live in the **`mathias/skills`** repo (`git.d-ma.be/mathias/skills`). Load at task start — not "on demand" but on schedule, before writing code. Browse `SKILLS_INDEX.md` for the full list.
-
-**Claude Code** installs the repo as a plugin from the marketplace the same repo hosts. That path also carries the `secret-guard` and `pre-task-ritual` hooks and the brain/gitea/infra MCP servers, which symlinks cannot:
-
-```
-/plugin marketplace add https://git.d-ma.be/mathias/skills.git
-/plugin install skills@mathias
-```
-
-Skills are **namespaced** under Claude Code: load `tdd` as `skills:tdd`. The trigger table below uses bare names — prefix them.
-
-**Crush, Pi and OpenCode** have no plugin system and are wired by `install.sh` as one directory symlink per harness via `~/.agents/skills`. Do not clone the checkout into `~/dev`: that folder is iCloud-shared between the Macs and spans two path roots (`/Users/mathias` vs `/home/mathias` on koala), so a checkout there is a git working tree with two concurrent writers, and any absolute symlink stored in it is broken on one side by construction (skills#23). Leave `SKILLS_CHECKOUT_DIR` at its host-local default.
-
-Check a host with `task doctor` in the skills repo; it also runs automatically at session start via the plugin.
-
-**Skill trigger table — load before starting, not after getting stuck:**
-
-| Task type | Load |
-|-----------|------|
-| Any feature or bug fix | `tdd` |
-| Refactor or design | `clean-code` or `solid` |
-| Debug | `problem-analysis` |
-| Review code or PRs | `code-review` |
-| Frame a problem before coding | `problem-analysis` |

-#
-# The scaffolders (gitea-mcp create_project_from_template, local-dev
-# scripts/new-project.sh) substitute placeholders in EVERY file of the tree —
-# including this one. So a guard that greps a whole placeholder token is

-# greps the module-path placeholder, and in the generated repo that same line
-# has become a grep for the real module path — which the generated go.mod
-# declares on its first line. It matches forever, every job below skips, and the
-# run reports green having built nothing.
-#
-# That shipped twice: #9 (cad-atlas) and #10 (openbanking-api), the second one
-# sitting directly under a comment warning against exactly this.
-#
-# Note this comment names no placeholder literally, for the same reason. A
-# comment that gets substituted stops explaining the thing it documents — and
-# scripts/tests/is-template_test.sh enforces that, which is how the first draft
-# of this file was caught.
-#
-# The regex below matches the SHAPE of a placeholder and contains no complete
-# token, so there is nothing for a scaffolder to rewrite. It also catches any
-# other leftover placeholder, not just the two the scaffolders know about.
