The 8 section icon cards now sit inside a labeled .brain panel (Brain icon + '.brain'
header) arranged 4 per row × 2 rows.

The agent command center's BRAIN+SURFACE columns are now a grid of compact icon
cards (system prompt / how it operates / personality / skills / capabilities /
tools / memory / safety). Clicking a card opens a modal with the full content,
nicely formatted (markdown/persona/tags), editable for the four brain text files
(system_prompt, agent_md, persona, skills_md) and saved back to the .brain via
PATCH /api/claws/{id}/brain. Capabilities/tools/memory/safety render read-only
(tools keeps its Add affordance). LIVE column unchanged.
- frontend: new AnatomyGrid (icon cards + SectionModal); ClawCommandCenter swaps the
two verbose columns for it; skills_md added to RawBrain types.
- backend: cm-brain skills_md() getter + skills_md in ClawBrainResponse so the skills
editor pre-fills (avoids blank-overwrite).

A new "Observe" button (Eye) sits next to "+ New" in the agent chat header; clicking
flips the card into a read-only observer of that agent's conversations with other
agents, updating live as messages happen.
- frontend: AgentObserver (history from /api/claw-chat/* + live agent.message overlay
filtered to the agent, read-only banner, no composer); ClawChatSection toggle + flip.
- backend: emit a live agent.message run-event when chat.send succeeds — events.rs
AgentMessage variant, chat.send returns to_id, runtime emits in both tool paths,
world.rs normalizes agent_message → agent.message SSE. No migration, no new table.
Roadmap (not built): group/multi-party rooms; A2A protocol (a2a-rs) adoption.

Nodes without an onboard GPU + not on Beszel (e.g. smith.lan) left that row empty.

After 'claude update' replaces the binary, the daemon's re-probe ran the fresh
binary which macOS Gatekeeper re-verifies (>2s) — the 2s probe cap missed the new
version, so the UI didn't refresh (update worked but looked stale). Bump the cap to
8s; frontend polls the tools endpoint a few times post-update to catch the re-probe.

The ↑ badge on each tool card is now a button: confirm → POST
/api/nodes/{id}/tools/{tool}/update → daemon runs the tool's own updater + re-probes.
- daemon: tool_update op (spawned task so the 170s update can't stall the WS loop;
re-probes + re-sends node_tools after). Fixed command allow-list (no arbitrary
shell): claude/glm → `claude update`; kimi → `uv tool upgrade kimi-cli`; ollama →
brew upgrade (mac) / install.sh (linux); else unsupported. 4KB output cap.
- cm-api: call_timeout/request_timeout (long ops); POST .../tools/{tool}/update
(workspace-scoped, allow-list) → {ok,output}.
- frontend: ↑latest becomes an Update button → confirm → spinner → refresh/err.
Note: claude/kimi/glm are user-space (no sudo); ollama on Linux uses install.sh
(needs sudo — works on passwordless nodes, returns an error otherwise; surfaced in UI).

Each node card now shows installed versions of Docker / Claude Code / Kimi / GLM /
Ollama (conditional per node) under the ssh card, with an "update available" badge.
- daemon: probe_tools() finds docker/claude/kimi-cli/ollama across candidate bin dirs,
extracts semver from --version, reports {"t":"node_tools",...} on connect + every 15m.
- migration node_tools + tool_latest; cm-db repo node_tools (upsert/list/latest).
- cm-api: fleet.rs NodeTools uplink → upsert; tool_versions.rs spawn_latest_checker
(24h, npm/pypi/github; docker display-only); GET /api/nodes/{id}/tools (glm mirrors
claude). Spawned in clawmates-server.
- frontend: NodeTools cards on each HostCard with the ↑latest badge.
Phase 2 (one-click update execution) intentionally deferred.

Apple-silicon Mac nodes (ghost) run an arm64 Docker VM, so the amd64 images run

and loads them onto the arm64 Mac node(s). amd64 (scripts/deploy.sh) still covers
the Linux nodes + Intel Macs.

CI no longer references k8s; delete the dead k8s surface:
- deploy/helm/ (the chart), ci/check-helm.sh, scripts/netpol-cluster.sh
- cm-sandbox: the feature-gated K8sDriver (src/k8s.rs) + k8s_security test +
the `k8s`/`k8s-tests` features + the optional kube/k8s-openapi/rustls deps
(Cargo.lock drops the kube-rs tree). Nothing outside cm-sandbox referenced it.
Docker (bollard) DockerDriver is the sole sandbox driver. cm-sandbox + cm-runtime
compile, fmt + clippy clean.

Survey + fixes so the pipeline passes at the Docker level (no k8s).
- Remove k8s: drop the `sandbox-k8s` job (kind/Calico/--features k8s-tests) and the
"Helm chart lints" gate step. release.yml was already k8s-clean.
- Rust job:
- `cargo fmt --all` — fix pre-existing formatting drift (fmt --check was failing).
- clippy -D warnings: fix 3 lib warnings (cm-brain sort_by_key→Reverse, cm-api
fleet.rs doc list indentation, node_rules map_or→is_none_or).
- Regenerate the .sqlx offline cache (was missing the cm-runtime run_loop test
query → offline compile failed). DB-backed tests use testcontainers at runtime.
- Set SQLX_OFFLINE=true on the rust + e2e jobs so query! macros compile against
the committed cache deterministically (no DB needed at compile time).
- Frontend job:
- Fix the 1 ESLint error (useAgentTelemetry: no setState-synchronously-in-effect;
tag the slice with agentId + derive null on mismatch).
- Fix 2 stale panel-params tests (`terminal` is a valid app id now; assert the
current APP_IDS + use a genuinely-unknown id for the reject case).
Verified locally: fmt clean, clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean (offline),
frontend lint 0 errors, tsc clean, 86/86 frontend tests pass, build OK.

The wizard mints a pending node on open (POST /api/nodes/pair). Cancelling left it
behind as a 'waiting for daemon to dial home' card. handleClose now DELETEs the node
on close unless it actually connected (everConnected) — so cancel leaves no card,
while a node that already dialed home is kept.

The chat launcher was repointed to the computer's 'chat' app, which rendered the

Add PATCH /api/claws/{id}/brain (edit_brain): writes any of system_prompt / agent_md
/ persona / skills_md into the claw's .brain (best-effort) + persists system_prompt
to Postgres (authoritative) + commits a ClawSync revision.
Frontend: a reusable EditableSection (pencil → textarea → Save/Cancel → PATCH →
re-fetch brain). The SYSTEM PROMPT, HOW I OPERATE (AGENTS.md), and PERSONALITY cards
in the command center are now editable inline; saving writes back to the mapped
brain section. AGENTS.md card now always shows (so it can be authored when empty).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Gap 1 — the brain's identity sections were stored but UI-only. cm-runtime/brain.rs
`compose_system` now folds the brain's AGENTS.md ("## How I operate") + personality
into the live system prompt (after the Postgres-authoritative base, before skills +
memory; falls back to the brain's soul_md when the base is empty). Mirrors the
OpenClaw/ZeroClaw render order.
Mapping — expose `agent_md` on `GET /api/claws/{id}/brain` (ClawBrainResponse) and
render it as a collapsible "HOW I OPERATE · AGENTS.md" card in the command center's
BRAIN column (RawBrain gains agent_md; richBrain passes it through). So the section
that's now in the prompt is also visible in the UI.

Replace the single centered "anatomy profile" + resizable chat split with an
operator command center: compact 62px identity strip → 5-tile per-agent metrics
band → three independently-scrolling LIVE · BRAIN · SURFACE columns. Chat moves to
the computer's Chat app; the right computer pullout (DevicePanel) is untouched.
- backend: cm-api/routes/world.rs emits per-agent `telemetry{agentId,tokensPerMin,
costPerHr,loops,doorsPending}` in the SSE loop, from 4 batched GROUP BY queries
(usage_events tokens/min + credits/hr, active routines, pending approvals) — all
real, no migration. taxonomy `telemetry` gains optional agentId; stateKey now
keys it per-agent so slices don't clobber.
- frontend: new ClawCommandCenter + anatomy-cards (shared cards extracted from
Dashboard); useAgentTelemetry(agentId) feeds the metric band (Doors amber>0/
green=0); LIVE column streams the agent's task.update / reasoning.delta /
tool.call (replaces the mocked VitalsCard heatmap with a live activity chart).
- Dashboard: left region → full-height ClawCommandCenter; chat launcher opens the
computer Chat app; removed the dead anatomy cluster + unused imports.

So a fresh per-agent node-local volume (node-placed terminal) seeds with 65532
ownership and the non-root shell can write ~/drives, instead of a root-owned mount.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Completes "agent on a node" (single-node): when an agent's placement points at a
fleet node, its terminal container runs there and the browser reaches it over a
direct WebRTC DataChannel (LAN speed), sharing a node-local volume with the
sandbox. gw-04-local agents are byte-identical to before.
- cm-sandbox/docker.rs: empty drive subpath → mount the whole volume at the target
(volume_options None), so a per-agent node-local volume auto-creates at ~/drives.
- cm-api/fleet.rs: NodeHub.open_pty/webrtc_offer carry optional container+session
(injected only when Some); node-terminal caller passes None (host shell unchanged).
- cm-runtime/terminals.rs: TerminalManager gains node_provider + placement
(mirrors SandboxManager, draining-aware); node_local_drive_mount(agent) =
clawmates_agent_<id> at ~/drives; placement_for() ensures + locates the container;
attach uses driver_for(node) (local byte-identical).
- cm-runtime/sandboxes.rs: a node-placed agent sandbox mounts the same per-agent
volume → shares files with the terminal on that node.
- cm-api/routes/terminal.rs: ticket response gains `node`; ws() bridges node-placed
agents through the NodeHub relay (WebRTC + fallback) execing into the container;
local path unchanged. server main wires with_node_provider.
- frontend: agentTerminalConnector mints the ticket then picks WebRTC (node-placed,
⚡ direct / relayed badge) vs WS (local); webrtcConnector generalized to be
endpoint-agnostic (node terminal reuses it).
Known follow-up: terminal (uid 65532) and sandbox (uid 10001) share the volume but
differ in uid — cross-container writes need an aligned uid/gid (group-writable).

Generalize the daemon's PTY spawn so a session can target either the node's host
shell (today) or `docker exec -it <container> tmux …` (the node-placed agent
terminal, which shares the container's node-local ~/drives). A `container` (+
optional `session`) field on pty_open/webrtc_offer selects the container path;
absent it, the host shell path is byte-identical to before — so the Infra node
terminal is unaffected. Threads PtyTarget through open_pty + rtc handle_offer →
build_peer → bridge_pty. Additive; nothing emits `container` yet.

- frontend/.../terminal/core.ts: `useResilientTerminal` owns the xterm lifecycle
(init, fit, debounced resize, reconnect, refit-on-visible) with a pluggable
transport. Two connectors: `wsConnector` (agent terminal → container PTY over WS)
and `nodeWebrtcConnector` (node terminal → host PTY, direct WebRTC DataChannel
with WS-relay fallback, input buffered during the race). The agent terminal now
gets the node terminal's robust reconnect for free; both share one xterm setup.
- TerminalApp (agent) + NodeTerminalApp (node) reduced to thin wrappers over the
core — net ~330 lines of duplicated transport/reconnect/xterm code removed.
- scripts/deploy.sh: the deploys were manual, so the locally-built agent images
(agent-base/browser/terminal — not in any registry) were never shipped and 404'd
on provision. The script always (re)builds + loads them onto gw-04 AND every
fleet node, with a skip-if-identical guard so unchanged images aren't re-transferred.

Turn the Beszel-tapped metrics into a self-managing loop.
- migration node_rules (workspace/node-scoped: metric op threshold, for_seconds,
action JSONB, last_fired).
- cm-db: repo/node_rules.rs (CRUD + list_enabled); node_metrics::eval_all merges
Beszel + heartbeat scalars per node + a headroom() heuristic; nodes::status_of;
heartbeat now PRESERVES a `draining` status across heartbeats (so a cordon sticks).
- cm-api: node_rules.rs evaluator (spawn_evaluator, 20s) — when a metric condition
holds for the rule's window it fires drain / undrain / alert (in-memory sustained
+ cooldown tracking, modeled on the node sweeper); routes/beszel.rs rules CRUD
(GET/POST/PATCH/DELETE /api/fleet/rules); spawned in clawmates-server.
- cm-runtime: placement_node() is metrics-aware — a `draining` node stops receiving
new agent sandboxes (falls back to local), so the drain rule is actionable.
- frontend: FleetRules section in the Local view — build rules (node · metric · op ·
threshold · duration → action), toggle/delete, with fired-history.
The loop: hot/overloaded node → rule drains it → placement avoids it → recovers →
undrain rule brings it back. Deployed; node_rules migration applied.

Tap each node's Beszel metrics (GPU/temps/disk-IO/network/per-container — beyond
our basic heartbeat) by reading the workspace's Beszel hub. The agents run in
WS-only mode with no locally-readable socket, so (per the de-risk) the server taps
the hub's PocketBase API instead of the daemon reading agents — no daemon changes.
- migrations: workspace_beszel (BYO hub URL + login, server-side only, mirrors the
Tailscale BYO pattern) + node_metrics (latest scalar columns + JSONB blob).
- cm-db: repo/fleet_beszel.rs, repo/node_metrics.rs; nodes SELECT joins node_metrics
(gpu_pct/temp_max surfaced on node_json for the live cards).
- cm-api: beszel.rs client (auth-with-password, poll `systems`, map to nodes by
hostname, upsert metrics) + a 15s spawn_poller; routes/beszel.rs (connect/status/
disconnect + GET /api/nodes/{id}/metrics with history proxied live from the hub).
- frontend: HostCard gains a GPU/temp readout + a Monitor button; NodeMonitor is a
full-width per-node page (current panel + CPU/mem/GPU/temp/net/disk charts from the
hub's 1m history); a "Beszel monitoring" connect form in the Local view.
Reachability confirmed: gw-04 → the hub over the tailnet (100.123.224.84:8090). Needs
the user to connect their hub login to activate the poller.

Terminal keystrokes were ~400ms because every byte relayed browser→Cloudflare→
gw-04 (Europe)→tailscale→node, even when the node is on the user's own LAN. Add a
direct browser↔node WebRTC DataChannel so co-located terminals run at LAN speed;
the gateway is reduced to signaling; the WebSocket relay stays as the automatic
fallback (graceful degradation — never worse than before).
Daemon (clawmates-node v0.4.0, new src/rtc.rs):
- Add the `webrtc` crate (reuses the ring crypto provider we already install — no
conflict). Browser is the offerer; we answer, trickle ICE back over the control
channel, and on DataChannel open spawn a host PTY (tmux) bridged DIRECTLY to the
channel. Refactor open_pty → spawn_terminal_pty shared by both transports.
iceServers: STUN + auto host/tailnet candidates (direct, no relay, for LAN/tailnet).
Server (cm-api):
- NodeConn.signal_sinks; Uplink WebRtcAnswer/WebRtcIce/WebRtcFailed routed to the
browser; NodeHub webrtc_offer/ice/close + open_session/open_pty (open_terminal
split so the PTY opens only once the transport is chosen). bridge_terminal relays
signaling over the existing ticket-authed WS and opens the relay PTY on
{type:"fallback"}.
Browser (NodeTerminalApp):
- RTCPeerConnection + reliable/ordered DataChannel; offer/answer/ICE over the WS;
2.5s race → use the DataChannel if it opens, else fall back to the WS relay.
Reconnect wraps both. A direct⚡/relayed indicator shows the live transport.
Deployed; both nodes (morpheus, tank) updated to v0.4.0 and steady online. Direct-
path proof is a browser action (the ⚡ indicator + latency); confirmable from the
daemon's [rtc] logs.

Nodes flapped online/offline and the terminal died on the first blip. WebSockets
are the right transport (outbound, NAT-friendly); the fixes harden around it.
Server (cm-api):
- Anti-clobber connection epoch: a reconnecting daemon gets a fresh epoch; a stale
run_channel's teardown only clears the hub + sets offline if it still owns the
slot — so a lingering old channel can't flip a live reconnection offline (the
main false-offline cause).
- WS keepalive: run_channel now pings every 15s and tears down if no inbound
frame (incl. pong) for 35s — dead links detected in seconds, not minutes.
- Staleness sweeper backstop: spawn_node_sweeper (8s tick / 20s window) wired in
clawmates-server, so a vanished node goes offline within ~28s even if its
channel hangs (mark_stale_offline was defined but never called).
Daemon (clawmates-node v0.3.0):
- Heartbeats off the select thread (dedicated thread owns System + blocking
docker/tailscale/disk CLIs) so a slow op never starves heartbeats/pongs.
- Each handle_frame runs on its own task; added a 40s inbound idle deadline so a
half-open socket triggers a reconnect.
Frontend:
- useNodes streams /api/nodes/live (SSE push) instead of a 3s poll; isLive()
derives online from lastSeen freshness (<15s) so a transient column flip never
shows a healthy node down.
- Node terminal: clean auto-reconnect loop (re-mint ticket -> reconnect -> tmux
re-attaches and redraws the live screen = mosh-style snap-to-state over TCP),
replacing the [disconnected] dead-end.
Mosh evaluated: harvest principles (session/transport decoupling, snap-to-state,
already given by tmux), don't adopt — UDP is incompatible with our browser+CF+NAT
topology and it's GPLv3. Removed temporary terminal debug traces + /api/debug route.
Verified: node holds steadily online (heartbeat 1-3s, no flap) and goes cleanly
offline when the daemon stops.

Root cause (from the server trace: 69 banner bytes then immediate "to_browser
ended" = pty_exit): tmux spawned and exited instantly, writing its "sessions
should be nested with care" warning to stderr (not the PTY). The operator runs
the daemon inside their own tmux, so $TMUX was inherited and the spawned tmux
refused to nest → browser saw nothing.
- daemon (v0.2.2): spawn tmux on a DEDICATED socket (`tmux -L clawmates
new-session -A -s main`) and `env_remove("TMUX")`, so it can never collide with
or be refused by the operator's tmux.
- NodeTerminalApp: debounce the ResizeObserver (150ms). The pull-out animates
open, firing the observer on every pixel — previously ~80 resize frames per
open, each fit()+SIGWINCH. Now one resize after layout settles.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <[email protected]>
The server trace showed pty_open is sent but the daemon (morpheus, v0.2.0) emits
no pty_out — so the PTY spawn was dying silently. Instrument it:
- daemon open_pty: log open/tmux/first-read/EOF/error/total to stdout, and send
an IMMEDIATE banner pty_out ("[clawmates] host shell on <host> — starting…") so
the browser confirms the relay even before the shell draws. If open_pty fails,
send the error as pty_out (was a silent pty_exit). Bump to v0.2.1.
- cm-api: temp GET /api/debug/node-pty/{id}?dbg=… opens a node terminal and reads
~2s of output with no browser/auth, to test the relay in isolation.
- NodeTerminalApp + ticket/ws routes already log each hop ([node-term]/[fleet-term]).
Diagnostic logic: banner shows + shell doesn't → relay ok, shell is the problem;
nothing shows → relay broken; daemon "EOF after N bytes" → shell exited.

Refactor the Infrastructure tier into the dark operator console from the design
package, wired to the real fleet backend (no new plumbing):
- InfraNav: page-scoped left nav grouped RUN HERE FIRST (Local & Tailscale, with
online count + sub-items) / NEXT (Cloud providers, SOON) + coral "Connect a
host" button; coral spine on the active view.
- FleetConsole: center reads top-to-bottom — kicker → "Your fleet" → 5 stat tiles
(HOSTS/ONLINE/MEMORY/STORAGE/CONTAINERS) → Tailscale device card → LOCAL HOSTS
host cards + add-host dashed tile. Cloud view = how-it-works + SOON.
- Host cards (design system): status dot (blink when online) + hostname, IP/version
line, CPU/RAM meter bars (cyan→amber→coral by load), disk/load/ctrs mini-row, and
a footer that's a copyable `ssh <node>` target (online) OR a "waiting for daemon"
spinner (pairing) — PLUS a Terminal button that opens the in-app shell.
- FleetPill (top bar, N/M hosts online) + FleetStatusBar (ambient: daemon · tailnet
· WSS · sandbox).
Per the chosen reconciliation: kept the cloud-apps computer pull-out as the right
column, the connect-host wizard as a modal, and the in-app terminal. Dashboard
infra branch rewired (InfraNav + FleetConsole + status bar; dropped the old
InfraStage/InfraConsole split). cm-blink/spin/cm-fade keyframes already existed.

- Daemon: factor the terminal command into terminal_command(); add `--selftest`
which opens the host terminal PTY locally and prints ~2.5s of raw output, so
you can confirm tmux/zsh actually draws on a given node without the browser.
(Verified locally: tmux spawns zsh + draws its status bar.)
- cm-api: temporary [fleet-term] eprintln tracing in open_terminal, the pty_out
router, and the browser bridge (byte counts + sink presence) to locate where
output stops between daemon→server→browser. To be removed once diagnosed.

The node terminal opened a bare bash PTY — bash prints its prompt once, so a
freshly-attached xterm showed nothing. Switch to `tmux new-session -A -s
clawmates` on the HOST (mirrors the agent terminal, but on the node itself, not
in a container): tmux redraws the whole screen on attach (no blank), and the
session is resumable across reopens. Starts in $HOME. Falls back to a login
shell if tmux is unavailable. ensure_tmux() best-effort installs tmux via the
host package manager when the daemon runs as root (systemd); otherwise logs a
hint to `apt install tmux`. Rebuilt + re-hosted both binaries.

Hostname/IP:
- Daemon reports the machine's hostname (sysinfo) + primary outbound IPv4 on each
heartbeat. migrations/0021 adds nodes.hostname/local_ip; cm-db heartbeat stores
them; node JSON exposes them. Cards now title on the real hostname (falling back
to name) + show the IP, instead of the "New node" placeholder. `name` stays
user-overridable (rename).
Terminal moved into the pull-out computer (no more per-card modal):
- New infra computer app NodeTerminalApp (computer/apps/infra) — xterm bridged to
a node's host shell over the node control channel, filling the app window
(mirrors the agent Terminal's layout + ResizeObserver). Added "terminal" to the
INFRA_CATALOG grid; a ?node= panel param targets a specific node (picker when
unset). Clicking Terminal on a node card now opens the infra computer to that
node's shell instead of a separate full-screen window. Deleted NodeTerminal.tsx.
Rebuilt + re-hosted both daemon binaries (hostname change).

Two bugs surfaced running the daemon on a real node:
- Linking cm-sandbox (bollard) brought a second rustls provider into the graph,
so rustls couldn't auto-pick one and panicked at the WSS TLS handshake. Install
the ring provider explicitly at startup (rustls dep + install_default()).
- The daemon auto-ran `tailscale set --ssh`, which tries to reroute the user's
live SSH session and aborts ("will result in your session disconnecting"). Now
Tailscale is only touched when an auth key is explicitly passed (opt-in), with
--accept-risk=lose-ssh to avoid the interactive abort.
Rebuilt + re-hosted both binaries (linux-amd64, darwin-arm64).

The connect-host curl one-liner 404'd because install.sh was never served. Serve
it from the frontend's public/ (Next serves it at /install.sh), and host the
daemon binaries at /dl/clawmates-node-<os>-<arch>:
- frontend/public/install.sh: detects OS/ARCH, downloads the matching binary,
runs it (or prints from-source instructions if no prebuilt exists).
- Binaries (linux-amd64 built on tank, darwin-arm64 built locally) are baked into
the frontend image at public/dl/ (gitignored, not committed).

Agents can now provision their sandbox on a connected fleet node instead of the
gateway host. Local stays the strict default, so existing agents are byte-for-
byte unaffected until explicitly placed elsewhere.
Security parity: the daemon links the REAL cm-sandbox DockerDriver and runs the
typed container ops (sb_provision/sb_exec/sb_destroy/sb_health/sb_list) through
it — identical hardening (cap-drop ALL, seccomp, no-net, read-only, non-root) to
local sandboxes. cm-sandbox spec types are now Serialize/Deserialize so the spec
crosses the channel.
- cm-api: RemoteDriver (impl SandboxDriver over the node channel) + HubDriverProvider
(impl cm_runtime::NodeDriverProvider, hands out a driver only for connected
nodes via a sync online set) + NodeHub.call/is_connected. AppState.with_node_hub
so the hub is shared with the placement provider.
- cm-runtime SandboxManager: driver_for(node_id) routes by the recorded
agent_containers.node_id (local default = existing driver, identical path);
placement_node() reads the workspace setting and falls back to local if the
node is offline; exec/release route accordingly. NodeDriverProvider trait.
- DB: 0020_workspace_placement + repo (for_agent/get/set/clear).
- main.rs: build the NodeHub first; inject HubDriverProvider into the agent
manager + share the hub with AppState.
- API+UI: GET/PUT /api/fleet/placement + a "Run agents on: Local / <node>"
selector in the Fleet overview.
Note: a node must be able to pull the agent image (the daemon docker-pulls it);
interactive PTY for agent containers on remote nodes is not wired (Terminal app
stays local) — the in-dashboard node shell already covers host access.

Proves a connected node can host hardened agent workloads end-to-end, without
touching the agent run loop (zero blast radius on existing agents).
- Daemon: typed `sb_check` op — pulls a tiny image and runs it fully locked down
(cap-drop ALL, no-new-privileges, no network, read-only rootfs, non-root,
memory/pids caps), then tears it down. Fixed command; nothing caller-supplied
runs (preserves the exec-hardening invariant).
- cm-api: NodeHub.sandbox_check + POST /api/nodes/{id}/sandbox-check.
- UI: a shield "sandbox check" button on each online node card streams the
result (✓ SANDBOX READY + container id/uname).
This validates the full provision→run→destroy mechanism on nodes. The remaining
P2 work — wiring real agent deploys to auto-place onto nodes — is its own
subsystem (a RemoteDriver reusing the local DockerDriver for security parity,
agent-image distribution to nodes, and node-routing in SandboxManager) and is
best done as a focused pass; it is intentionally NOT bundled here to keep the
core agent path untouched.

You can now open a real shell on any connected node from the dashboard — the
daemon spawns a host PTY and streams it over the existing outbound control
channel (no inbound port, no Tailscale brokering needed).
Daemon:
- portable-pty host shell sessions: pty_open/pty_in/pty_resize/pty_close ops; a
reader thread streams base64 pty_out frames. Outbound frames now funnel through
one mpsc channel so PTY output and heartbeats interleave.
cm-api NodeHub:
- per-connection pty_sinks + sid multiplexing; open_terminal/terminal_input/
terminal_resize/terminal_close; in-memory single-use terminal tickets (the
browser WS can't carry a bearer, and the session is instance-local anyway).
- routes/nodes.rs: POST /api/nodes/{id}/terminal/ticket + GET .../terminal/ws
(bridges browser xterm <-> node PTY: binary = keystrokes, text = resize).
Frontend:
- NodeTerminal xterm modal (reuses the agent Terminal's xterm setup); a Terminal
button on each online node card opens a shell.
This proves the bidirectional streaming-over-channel mechanism the RemoteDriver
will reuse. Remaining P2: RemoteDriver + placement (run agent workloads on nodes).

Security hardening:
- The gateway no longer sends arbitrary shell to nodes. The WSS exec op is
replaced by a typed `verify` op the daemon runs itself (fixed host+docker
check); future container ops are typed too. cm-api NodeHub.verify() + the
daemon's handle_command only dispatches vetted ops.
BYO Tailscale:
- migrations/0019_workspace_tailscale.sql + cm-db fleet_tailscale repo (store the
user's Tailscale API key + tailnet, server-side only).
- cm-api routes/tailscale.rs: POST/GET/DELETE /api/fleet/tailscale + GET
/api/fleet/tailscale/devices (proxies api.tailscale.com device list).
- Daemon: --tailscale-authkey → `tailscale up --authkey … --ssh` (enables
Tailscale SSH for keyless user access); else `tailscale set --ssh=true`. Reports
its tailscale IP (already).
UI:
- Fleet overview gains a Tailscale section: connect (key+tailnet) + live tailnet
device status (online/last-seen/IP/os). Node cards show a copyable Tailscale SSH
target (ssh <ip>).
Remaining: P2 — RemoteDriver + placement (run agents on nodes) and the in-UI
remote terminal (PTY proxied over the WSS channel).

Promote Infrastructure to a first-class tier that mirrors the Agent template:
a left rail tab + crumb, an Infra category sidebar, a center stage, and the
right slide-out computer — the SAME device chrome as the agent, driven by a
swappable app catalog.
- Parameterize the computer by a ComputerCatalog (computer/catalog.ts): grid,
dock, icons, tile, title, render, theme. DevicePanel + HomeScreen are now
catalog-driven; the agent computer is unchanged via agentCatalog() (today's
grid/dock/tiles/AppRouter, extracted verbatim into computer/tiles.tsx).
- Infra catalog (computer/catalogs/infra.tsx): grid = AWS/GCP/Azure/Add, dock =
Hosts/Status/Settings, original colored lettermark tiles (not the trademarked
logos), placeholder app screens (computer/apps/infra/InfraApp.tsx). APP_IDS
gains aws/gcp/azure/hosts/status.
- Infra tier in Dashboard.tsx: "infra" Tier + Server rail tab + crumb; an
InfraSidebar/InfraStage/InfraConsole (InfraStage.tsx) mirroring the claw
center+chat; the right pull-out is <DevicePanel catalog={INFRA_CATALOG}/> with
the same launchers, size presets and drag-resize.
