get_ast_outline was the one registry tool with no Tool::display_name and no
Tool::icon, so its chat card fell back to the raw function id and the generic
Filesystem glyph. It now declares "Code Outline" plus a new semantic icon key
'outline', mapped frontend-side to bi-list-nested with its own accent var in
both themes.
The tool was a single-user leftover: it only implemented the context-free
execute, so a relative path resolved against the server process cwd and
projects/{owner}/{slug}/... failed with "Cannot read file" while every
other fs tool worked. It now overrides run_with like its siblings:
memory paths outline the note from the right pool, physical paths go
through the shared UserFs shuttle (home, shared, projects, container),
and the agent-visible path is what headers and errors show. Also gains
target_path and a workspace-aware path description.
- list_files: new with_metadata parameter returns {path, line_count?, size}
per entry (both disk and memory-docs) so the agent can spot large files
worth outlining before reading
- ast_outline: replaced flat tree-sitter JSON walker with a recursive one
that shows nested keys at every depth, with inline scalar values and
container summaries
- message_builder: format active MCP connectors as a table with description
instead of a bare bullet list
- read_file description now hints to use get_ast_outline first
- tools.md: agent guidance to outline before reading
Two changes developed together in one session; they share the same module
structure (db/mod.rs, the core lib root) and only compile together, so they
land as one commit.
## UserManager + per-user encryption (§9/§11)
New `users::UserManager`: owns the system.db pool plus a map
`userid -> SqlitePool` of unlocked databases. The pool *is* the unlock token —
its connect options carry the DEK as SQLCipher's raw key, so an open pool means
the key is in RAM until restart and dropping it re-locks (§9). Knows nothing
about cookies.
New `crypto` module: envelope encryption. A random 256-bit DEK encrypts
`{userid}.db`; `users.database_password` holds it sealed with AES-256-GCM under
`Argon2id(password, salt)`. The AEAD tag is the password verifier — one
derivation both authenticates and yields the key, so encrypted users store no
second hash. Cleartext users store the Argon2id output directly, compared in
constant time. Argon2 runs in spawn_blocking behind a 2-permit semaphore
(256 MiB per derivation).
- SQLCipher via `libsqlite3-sys` `bundled-sqlcipher-vendored-openssl`, pinned
<0.38 so it unifies with the one sqlx-sqlite links (a newer copy would apply
the feature to a SQLite sqlx never uses). OpenSSL is vendored and static, so
the binary stays self-contained.
- Schema split into `create_registry_tables` (instance-wide, no user key) and
`create_owner_tables` (one owner's content, identical in every file). No FK in
the owner bucket may reach the registry — enforced by a standalone test.
Dropped `chat_history.model_db_id` (write-only, and the only registry-crossing
key); moved `projects`/`project_tickets` into the owner bucket.
- Provisioning invariant: the file is written before the row, deleted after it,
so a crash leaves an orphan file, never a user without a database. `open_db`
never creates: a missing file is an error, not a silent empty database.
Not consumed yet: no login, call sites still use the shared system.db pool.
## Extract crates/skald-core
The headless core moves out of `src/` into its own crate; `skald` (server) and
the coming `skald-setup` are shells around it. Two dependencies on the shell
were inverted rather than dragged along, so the core names neither Tauri nor any
concrete plugin:
- `Plugin::tools(self: Arc<Self>)` — plugins contribute tools through this hook
(sibling of `http_router`), so the core no longer downcasts to
`MobileConnectorPlugin`.
- `tools::restart::set_restart_handler` — the desktop shell installs its
teardown-and-respawn; the core defaults to the supervisor exit code. The core
loses its `desktop` feature.
- `boot`'s stdout formatter moves to the binary (`src/boot_format.rs`); the core
only emits tracing events.
All 79 core tests pass; the binary boots and serves in a clean directory, and
the mobile-connector tools still register through the new hook.
