New 'alias' subcommand (+ POS_SUBCMDS row, menu option 6 'Manage
aliases'): create/update/list/remove bash aliases that run
'pos system bank run <name>', written into ~/.bashrc inside a managed
marker block (BASH_RC_FILE seam for tests, atomic tmp+mv rewrite).
- alias_valid_name enforces ^[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*$
- same-name create is an idempotent retarget; last alias removal cleans
the whole block; outer ~/.bashrc aliases preserved byte-identically
- outer-alias collision refused (file untouched), PATH-shadow non-blocking
warn, 'bank remove' drops aliases pointing at the removed command
- GNU sed '1,0p' edge case (block at line 1) fixed with guarded ranges;
regex-quote literalization avoided via glob case payload match
- t-bank.sh +49 checks (71 -> 120); docs: POS.md, howto/system.md,
tests/README.md, AGENT_TODO.md; make gen byte-idempotent
(also refreshes the pos-communication-telegram-listener filetable
line count so the previous commit's tree is gen-consistent)
A mapped command exiting non-zero (e.g. /capture -> ffmpeg with no
webcam, exit 254) killed the whole daemon: the CHLD trap only recorded
children that exited 0 (and wait -n inside a trap is unreliable on bash
5.2 anyway), so reap_commands fell back to a bare 'wait $pid' which
aborts the shell under set -euo pipefail before the exit code is
captured. systemd Restart=always then crash-looped (dead gaps + duplicate
command execution from getUpdates offset=0 restarts).
- reap_commands: single reaper path, set -e safe wait with || rc=$?,
non-zero child exits now produce a normal reply with the real rc
- persist the confirmed getUpdates offset to $CONFIG_DIR/telegram-listener.state
(LISTENER_STATE_FILE seam) and resume it on start, so a restart never
re-delivers an unconfirmed burst
- new regression test t-telegram-listener-reap.sh (12 checks): 254-child
reap survives daemon, negative control proves the old idiom dies,
offset load/save resume + invalid fallback + empty-batch no-write
- rename bin/pos-bank -> bin/pos-system-bank with # POS: system bank
header; CLI becomes 'pos system bank'; BANK_FILE storage seam and v2
escaped format unchanged
- delete bin/pos-system-alias; remove its POS.md/howto sections and the
system-alias INTERACTIVE_CMDS entry; pos ai alias untouched
- update bin/pos comment + usage example, completions (gen), docs,
tests/t-bank.sh CLI path, AGENT_TODO Done notes
bank.env is line-oriented (name|description|command) so commands with
real newlines spanned records: bank_load truncated the command to its
first line and the remaining script lines became bogus entries. The
bank_get+cut -f3 retrieval path also truncated at embedded tabs.
- lib/bank-lib.sh: v2 format escapes backslash->\\ and newline->\\n
in the command field, writes # BANK_VERSION: 2; bank_load decodes
with printf %b only for v2 files, so existing v1 files load raw
(backward compatible, verified against the real ts-google entry).
- bin/pos-bank: cmd_show/cmd_run/cmd_edit now read fields from the
BANK_* arrays via bank_find instead of bank_get+cut.
- tests/t-bank.sh: +13 checks (71 total) - multiline round-trip exact
bytes, literal backslash-n, v1 raw-backslash compat, v1+re-save
byte-identical, CLI show/run full script.
- bin/pos: _pos_category_list now emits category-less tools (pos-bank,
pos-config, pos-tree) as sorted menu entries with an empty subcommand
column, deduped against real categories (pos-ai). bank previously
never appeared in the bare 'pos' menu.
- bin/pos-bank: fixed invalid 'local name="" -a cli_params=()' at
cmd_run (line 150) — bash rejected '-a' after an assignment, crashing
every 'pos bank run' with 'local: -a: not a valid identifier'.
Split into 'local name=""' + 'local -a cli_params=()'.
- tests/t-bank.sh: added B12-B14 covering cmd_run (no-params,
missing-command, param substitution) — would have caught the crash.
- AGENT_TODO.md: bank feature moved to Done.
Architect-approved (C): install.sh now skips+aborts (exit 0) when the
installed version equals the current git-derived version, with a --force
flag to re-install. Version scheme 0.0cN (N = git commit count) bumps by
construction on every commit.
- install_version(): derives 0.0c$count via git rev-list; empty when .git
absent (gate skipped); INSTALL_VERSION_OVERRIDE presence-check seam for
tests (empty override simulates no-git deterministically)
- Gate after arg parse, before phases; numeric comparison (strip 0.0c, -eq);
messages: 'Already installed (X). Use --force to re-install.' and
'(dry-run) Would skip install: already at version X', both exit 0
- flag_set installed_version after 'Bootstrap complete' banner (not in
dry-run, even under --force, never on phase failure)
- Docs: SCRIPTS.md flag table + gate description, AGENT_Context line count
248->301 + flags + flow diagram, README --force row, tests/README row,

Permanent coverage for the 2026-09-07 share mountpoint UX change
(commit 35eb90a): the REAL ask_mountpoint body is brace-extracted from
each client file (smb + nfs), exercised through the real common.sh +
share-lib.sh helper chain via the deterministic non-TTY stdin path, with
a fake sudo shim (records to SUDO_LOG, honors SUDO_FAIL) so no real
filesystem is touched.
Covers: existing dir used as-is (rc 0, provable NO confirm / NO mkdir
via empty SUDO_LOG) added by 35eb90a; new-dir confirm=y creates via sudo
mkdir; confirm=n and confirm=EOF both fail closed rc 1; existing
non-directory rejected 'not a directory'; relative / trailing-slash /
system paths (/etc, /root, /home/*/.ssh*) and empty-EOF all rc 1 with no
side effects; mkdir failure rc 1. Stdout purity (path only). Static
guards fail if anyone regresses n=new / n|N / ask_new_mountpoint, and
verify the existing-dir [-d] branch precedes confirm/mkdir. Byte-symmetry
guard keeps smb/nfs bodies identical.
117 checks new (18 files / 416 total). Every case can genuinely fail
(negative-control verified by Tester). Hard-skip contract respected: 0
skips — all cases deterministic non-interactively.
Verified: make check OK, make lint 0 FAIL/0 WARN, make test 18 files /
416 checks / 0 fail / 0 skip (~46s), bash -n clean, git diff --check clean.
User report: pressing Enter on 'System prompt (empty = use built-in)'
silently returned to the menu — no alias created, and step labels read
[1/4] [2/4] in a 5-step flow.
Detective (pre-existing, not a 2026-09-06 regression): menu_ask_value's
documented contract is 'rc 1 = cancel, or empty answer with no default';
the step-4 call passed an empty default so the advertised empty answer
hit rc 1 and '|| return 0' aborted the flow. Same latent trap at the
alias-name step (empty-name warn/re-prompt was dead code). 11 other
call sites are correct (6 external rely on empty=cancel, 4 pass
defaults) — no global semantic change allowed.
Architect: opt-in --allow-empty flag on menu_ask_value (backward
compatible; empty+no-default -> rc 0 + empty value; genuine cancel/EOF
stays rc 1; default still wins). Builder: implemented in lib/menu-lib.sh
+ bin/pos-ai-alias (steps 1-2 relabeled /5, flag at the two approved
sites); 7-case smoke matrix PASS.
Tests: tests/t-menu-allow-empty.sh (30 checks) — semantics matrix
against the real menu_ask_value via non-TTY stdin, reader-contract
probes (empty-Enter rc 0 vs EOF rc 1), static guards on step labeling,
the exactly-2 flag call sites, edit-flow untouched, and a scope fence
over all pos-* tools. Pty E2E proven feasible (script -qec, 3 scenarios)
and documented in the Tester report; the E2E file itself remains a
follow-up.

User report after the llamacpp app install: 'installed llama.cpp unknown',
valid flags rejected (randomly per run), 'Model not found' for the HF
downloader's own layout, and a systemd user-bus failure over SSH. Detective
(real b10822 binary, FACT) found four independent causes:
- version: llama-server --version prints to STDERR; detect_llama_version's
2>/dev/null swallowed it -> always 'unknown'. Now captures 2>&1 + accepts
semver/build tokens (incl. build 1.2.3 edge)
- validation: printf|grep -q under pipefail -> SIGPIPE rc=141 race randomly
rejected flags present in the 59 KB --help. Now pipe-less grep (no race);
20x determinism regression test
- model resolution: resolve_model accepted files only, but the HF downloader
creates <models>/<repo>/file.gguf dirs. Now expands a dir with exactly one
*.gguf (never silently picks; multi-gguf lists + errs)
- port: llama.cpp default 8080 vs tool/adapter 8088; validation reliability
means --port is now always pinned in the unit
- user bus: headless/SSH sessions lack XDG_RUNTIME_DIR -> ensure_user_bus in
lib/common.sh pre-flights all three systemctl --user tools with remediation
text; pos ai server --no-unit direct-run escape hatch (pidfile) for boxes
with no bus
- find_llamacpp narrowed to llama-server/llama-server-cuda (bare 'server'
fallback hazard); installer post-install sanity (version+help execute,
symlink targets resolve)
Architect decisions DQ1-DQ6 recorded. Tester: 4 new regression files
(version-from-stderr, 25x flag-validation determinism, model dir expansion,
bus pre-flight + E2E) + 3 fixture updates; suite 16 files / 269 checks.
Verified: make gen idempotent; make check OK; make lint 0 FAIL, 0 WARN;
