Daniele 59549d2b3b fix(mcp): install and expose a global connector's deps where they are needed
Nightly Build / build (push) Successful in 8m7s
Two halves of the same failure, found debugging a marketplace connector that
logged "connected — 6 tool(s)" while every call died on a missing module.

The verify ran as a bare `sh -c` and inherited nothing, so a python connector
was rejected by its own verify for a dependency installed one directory away —
`global_enable` installs before it verifies, so the deps were provably there at
the moment the check denied them, and the row ended up disabled. Only
connectors that bother to declare a verify could hit it. `verify_env` now
builds the verify's environment in one place and derives PYTHONPATH from the
workdir, which is already the connector dir in both targets; `or_insert`, so a
value the form declares still wins.

The global branch of the reinstall refresh restarted the server without ever
installing its deps: `ensure_installed_host` was reachable from `global_enable`
alone, so a marketplace Update that adds a requirements.txt landed the file and
brought the connector back exactly as broken. It now runs once per connector
folder before the restart loop, best-effort. The per-user branch had always
reinstalled, which is why nothing with scope=user ever showed the bug.

Known gap, deliberate: POST /api/mcp/test shares run_verify but not the
install, so testing a python connector never enabled on the box still fails on
missing deps. Making a "try it" button write to disk for minutes is the worse
trade.

Daniele 5fb5854ff2 fix(auth): stop the re-login dialog hijacking the login screen
Nightly Build / build (push) Successful in 8m11s
On a cold load with no session, both shells mount every component before
their boot auth check resolves, so a dozen gated /api calls 401 in
parallel and the fetch watch raised the re-login dialog over the login
screen the boot check was about to show (.relogin-backdrop is z-10000,
.login-page z-9999). The user typed their password into the modal, which
only closes itself on success — revealing the login page still up with
the app hidden, so they were asked a second time and only a manual
reload got them in.

The dialog is for a session that dies under an open tab, so gate it on
one having ever been established. Recognising that is passive, in the
same fetch wrapper: mobile.html probes /api/auth/me from a classic
inline script that runs before this module exists, so an explicit marker
per shell would never fire there and the dialog would be dead on mobile.
Any 2xx from a gated endpoint proves a session; only the routes
guard.rs::is_public lets through unauthenticated are excluded.

Knock-on: with the report now a no-op on a cold load, the chat's
reconnect loop no longer stopped on it. Retry only in the native shell,
which authenticates on its own — everywhere else something is already
asking for a password.

Daniele 5980bdb5b9 feat(users): unlock and start unencrypted users at boot
Nightly Build / build (push) Successful in 8m10s
A login is what makes an *encrypted* database readable; for an
unencrypted one it gated nothing but the runtime — the file has no key
and is already readable by this process. The cost was user-visible and
read as a bug: after every restart the Telegram bot answered "your
account is locked, log in via the web app", cron fired nothing and no
background agent ran, until a human opened the SPA.

`Skald::new` now calls `UserManager::unlock_all_unencrypted`, which
registers the pools exactly as a login would and refuses an encrypted or
inactive user. Unlocking alone only makes the data readable, so
`wiring::spawn_unlocked_user_runtimes` then builds a `UserContext` for
each — cron, the notify queue, the hub and the per-user MCP runtime all
hang off it. That build is a background supervisor task rather than part
of `new()`: it starts every member's MCP servers inside their container,
and the HTTP listener must not wait behind it. The same two steps run
per user off the lifecycle bus (`UserCreated`,
`UserActiveChanged{active:true}`, after the container `ensure`), so a
member created at runtime does not wait for the next restart.

Two boundaries stay where they were. Authentication is untouched:
`SessionStore` sits above `UserManager`, so no HTTP request
authenticates as anyone because of this. And the auto-unlock is
deliberately not on a lazy path such as `Skald::user_context` —
`revoke_user_runtime` locks a pool synchronously and expects nothing to
re-open it, so the writers of that map stay boot, login and the bus.

`open_db` and the two unencrypted openers now share `register_unlocked`
and `open_unencrypted_file`; `open_unencrypted` (the supervision path)
still does not register its pool.

Daniele 55dcb48299 fix(telegram): resolve send_attachment paths in the user's workspace
Nightly Build / build (push) Successful in 8m6s
`send_attachment` handed its `file_path` argument straight to
`InputFile::file`, which resolves against the **server process's** working
directory. Every path the model can actually have — relative to the user's
home, or absolute inside their container — failed the `path.exists()` check,
and the one class that didn't (a name that happens to exist next to the
binary) would have sent the wrong file.

The routing already exists for the fs-tools, so expose it rather than repeat
it: `UserFilesApi` (core-api) reads a path in the agent's own vocabulary and
is obtained from `UserChannelHandle::files()`, so it is scoped to one user by
construction. skald-core implements it over `resolve_view_target` — host
mount read directly, container-only path through `docker exec` — holding the
`SharedFs` cell rather than a snapshot, so a remount lands without a login.

The size cap is checked before the read (a new `exec_fs::size` for the
container branch): the point of a cap is to keep an oversized file out of RAM,
so checking it afterwards would protect nothing. A photo above `sendPhoto`'s
narrower 10 MB ceiling goes out as a document instead of as an API error.

Daniele 5765941758 feat(prompt): tell the agent what its sandbox can run
Nightly Build / build (push) Successful in 8m6s
The agent had no way to know its container ships ffmpeg, ripgrep or
tesseract, so it either declined work it could do or spent a round finding
out. This adds a command list to the system prompt as a **discovery hint** —
explicitly not an inventory.

Every decision follows from it being a hint:

- The allowlist (~35 entries, `container/commands.rs`) is the curation; a
  full PATH dump is 800 entries of coreutils noise. The probe exists so the
  list cannot *lie*, not so it can discover: `command -v` at login means we
  never announce something a container recreate threw away.
- The rendered prose says the list is partial and names `command -v`, so a
  tool outside the allowlist costs one check rather than a wrong conclusion.
  An empty probe renders as an explicit "could not be read", never as
  silence under a heading promising a list.
- Order is the allowlist's own, grouped by kind of work — the grouping is
  the curation, and the reader is a model, not a grep.
- Staleness is cheap both ways, so there is no invalidation machinery: a
  login-time snapshot on `UserContext`, non-fatal, refreshed at next login.

The gate is the tool, not the sentinel. Every AGENT.md carries
`common/sandbox.md` — the four system agents included — and the section is
emitted iff the turn's model is shown `execute_cmd`, derived from
`allow_tools` plus the security group's visibility filter for a root turn
and from `child_defs` for a sub-agent: always the same definitions the model
will see. `has_execute_cmd` therefore joins the PrefixCache key, since the
group is switchable mid-conversation and that switch already rewrites the
tool payload in the same provider cache.

The fragment holds only the heading and one stable sentence; every
conditional claim lives in the renderer, because prose promising
`sudo apt-get install` is not the renderer's to retract when the tool is
absent. `execute_cmd`'s own description loses `(python + node available)`:
its job is steering away from the shell, and a capability advertisement
diluted it.

Daniele c27da4e6ab feat(skills): rebuild the skill system for the multi-user model
Nightly Build / build (push) Successful in 8m6s
Per blueprint/skill-project.md: the old single-namespace, hand-maintained
index is gone, replaced by a read-only, two-scope tree whose index is a
runtime function of its content.

- skills/ index generated at runtime (crates/skald-core/src/skills/:
  inventory, install, validate, watch), injected through the new
  <!-- SKILLS_LIST --> placeholder in AGENT.md (agents/common/skills.md);
  meta.json inject_skills flag removed. 11 chat/task agents carry the
  include, the 4 system agents do not.
- Two trees, both read-only in both directions: skills/shared/{id} (the
  group's) and skills/{username}/{id} (one member's own, on the stable
  userid). The root is closed too: UserFs::SkillMounts + RouteError (alias
  probe, plain-denied paths, no home fallback) and a per-user
  .skills-root/{userid} container mount with the two scope mounts nested
  inside, plus the fifth self-heal axis (skills_mounted).
- Agent verbs: skill_register/skill_delete (Config group, global scope
  behind the new skill.manage capability), fetch_repo for public repos,
  list_items(type="skills"); reads are plain read_file on the printed
  path. Seeded @fs_read skills/* allow.
- Freshness: a digest-gated watcher on the two trees emits
  SystemEvent::SkillsChanged, whose subscriber rebuilds the frozen prompt
  prefix via Skald::invalidate_prompt_prefix; in-process writers invalidate
  directly.
- The build ships no skills: the three bundled skills (ics2json,
  mcp-builder, skill-creator) and skills/index.md are removed, skills/ is
  instance data (gitignored, not packaged, no longer pruned by update.sh).
- Docs: skills.md, agents.md, shared-folders.md added; docs/index.md and
  agents/README.md updated.

Daniele 71e1a26b08 fix(ui): render PDFs with pdf.js instead of an iframe
Nightly Build / build (push) Successful in 7m59s
On iOS the file viewer showed only the first page of a PDF, with no way
to scroll to the rest — the document had to be downloaded and opened in
another app. The cause was not ours: WebKit refuses to mount its PDF
viewer inside an <iframe>/<object>/<embed> and paints a static first-page
thumbnail instead. That hits Safari on iOS and every WKWebView, so the
native shell too. The full viewer only exists for a top-level navigation.

The desktop browsers do mount a viewer, but each mounts its own — Chrome's
toolbar, Safari's page-index sidebar — so the same document also looked
different on every machine.

Both are answered by drawing the pages ourselves. New <pdf-view>
(web/components/shared/pdf-view.js) renders a continuous scroll of canvas
pages on the vendored pdf.js, with a zoom control and a page counter, and
replaces the iframe for both native .pdf files and server-compiled LaTeX.

Three properties are load-bearing:

- pdf.js is imported lazily (~450 KB + a 1.2 MB worker), so a session that
  never opens a PDF never pays for it.
- Canvases are created and destroyed as pages scroll. iOS caps the total
  canvas backing store a page may hold and silently blanks canvases past
  it, so an eager render would come out empty on exactly the platform this
  was written for. Off-screen pages keep only a correctly-sized box, which
  is also what keeps the scrollbar honest.
- The text layer (selection, in-page find) is best-effort: it is
  transparent DOM over the pixels, so its failures are swallowed rather
  than surfaced.

Vendored from pdfjs-dist 6.2.108: pdf.min.mjs, pdf.worker.min.mjs, the
standard-font data (needed by PDFs that reference Helvetica/Times without
embedding them) and the .textLayer block of pdf_viewer.css. CJK cmaps are
deliberately left out. pdf.js 6 needs Safari/iOS 17.4+.

Verified in headless Chromium against both a synthetic 12-page PDF using
non-embedded Helvetica and a real 14-page paper with embedded fonts and
figures: all pages present, last page renders after scrolling, page 1
released off-screen, text layer populated, zoom re-renders at the new
scale, no JS errors.

Daniele 3744884070 fix(relay): detect a silently dead agent WebSocket and redial
Nightly Build / build (push) Successful in 7m53s
The agent's control WS to the relay was purely reactive: it answered the
relay's Ping with a Pong and otherwise never wrote anything for long
stretches. So when the path broke silently — NAT rebinding, a reverse proxy
dropping its state — there were no unacked bytes for the kernel to
retransmit, the socket never errored, and the relay's Close (it gives up
after 120s of quiet) fell into the same hole. stream.next() then parked
forever on a socket to nobody, is_connected() kept answering true, and the
reconnect schedule below it — which works fine, it just never got asked —
was never reached. Only a process restart cleared it.

Relay logs show the cost: three idle-timeout closes of the agent connection
with the agent absent for 2h, 9h and >2h afterwards, while every disconnect
it *did* notice was back in 2-4 seconds. During one of those windows the iOS
client authenticated four times and not a single pipe matched: pipe_invite
rides the E2E channel through the agent's WS, so with the agent gone the web
view had nothing to tunnel through.

Add a per-session liveness probe. Both halves matter: a WS Ping every 20s
keeps unacked bytes on the wire so a dead path finally surfaces as a TCP
error (and the relay's Pong refreshes its own idle timer), and 75s of
inbound silence — two missed relay pings — returns Err, handing the session
to the existing backoff schedule.

Covered by a test against a relay that completes the v2 handshake and then
goes mute, the shape a black-holed path leaves behind. It reads the raw TCP
stream rather than ws.next() because tungstenite auto-answers a Ping with a
Pong on the next read, which would keep last_seen fresh and defeat the
silence being simulated. Without the probe the test hangs instead of
redialing.
