CI is now live (act_runner on the Gitea host), so the docs stop saying a
runner 'needs to be registered' and record how the gate works:
- AGENTS.md: CI bullet now notes the live runner, red run = merge-blocker,
and the byte-order deterministic generator rule (LC_ALL=C, learned when the
CI container's locale reordered the category-less pos-config/pos-tree keys
and the gen-drift gate caught it).
- DEV.md: definition-of-done mentions the live CI re-run; new 'CI: Gitea
Actions Gate' section (runner location, CONFIG_FILE run.sh gotcha,
--add-host pin, one-time tokens, runnerv1 status enum 1=success/2=failure,
deterministic-generator convention, static-only limits).
- AGENT_Context step 7: pushing re-runs the gates, red run blocks.
- AGENT_TODO: dropped a duplicated 'gate added' Done entry and fixed its
stale 'runner pending' phrasing.
Plain sort in scripts/gen-docs.sh is locale-dependent: category-less tool
keys start with '|', which collates after letters under the CI container's
locale (pos-config/pos-tree moved to the end of the tree/dispatch/filetable
blocks). The new Gitea Actions gate caught this as a gen-drift failure on a
clean checkout. Force LC_ALL=C for byte-order sort and regenerate the doc
(config/tree now deterministically sort after the letter categories).
- .gitea/workflows/lint.yml: on push + pull_request runs make gen, then
git diff --exit-code (gen-drift check), then make check, then make lint
- requires a registered act_runner (ubuntu-latest label) to execute
- docs: AGENTS.md Quick facts 'no CI' -> CI bullet (runner required, gates
still run locally); DEV.md stub-harness note clarifies CI is static-gates
only; AGENT_TODO Done entry + Next item for runner registration
- verified locally: gen idempotent (0 gen-managed files changed), check OK,
lint 0 FAIL / 0 WARN
features/usb-automount.sh (installed via ./install.sh --feature, flag
usb-automount) mounts every unmounted removable block device at
/media/<label> — world-writable via -o umask=000 (fallback plain mount),
label-collision bump -2/-3, no-label -> usb-<name>. First root run
self-installs the hotplug udev rule (/etc/udev/rules.d/99-usb-automount.rules,
SYSTEMD_WANTS=usb-automount.service) + udevadm reload/trigger; an existing
rule is never overwritten. systemd/usb-automount.service (Type=oneshot,
WantedBy=multi-user.target) covers boot + hotplug + manual start, gated in
postinstall.sh's systemd loop exactly like autostart. Purpose: a plugged-in
stick is ready for pos system backup's post-verify USB copy without manual
mounting. Docs: SYSTEMD/SCRIPTS/README/AGENT_Context (tree, filetable —
postinstall.sh count corrected 152->163, it was already stale). Verified:
stub suite /tmp/opencode/usb-automount-test 47/47 green; make gen && make check.
Once the archive verifies, USB detection runs (so a stick plugged in while
the backup ran is found): mounted removable storage is auto-detected via
lsblk -J + a recursive jq filter (rm, mounted, type part|disk — JSON makes
spacey mountpoints safe), or BACKUP_USB_ROOT pins a fixed stick and skips
detection. None mounted → one re-scan prompt ('s' skips, EOF from cron
skips silently, rc stays 0); one stick → y/N confirm; several → numbered
pick (0 = skip). The copy lands in <usb>/backups/ (mkdir -p, chmod 600
best-effort — a vfat chmod failure warns, never fails the copy) and the
transfer is proven 100% by sha256 source-vs-copy before any success is
announced; a mismatch warns with both hashes, notifies 'USB copy FAILED',
and exits 1. The ERR trap is re-armed before the USB phase so a copy
failure no longer notifies 'Backup FAILED'. Docs: usage() Environment,
POS.md backup row, howto/system.md (USB section + env table + mismatch
troubleshooting), DEV.md system.env list. Stub suite
(/tmp/opencode/backup-test, HOME-isolated, sudo/gpg/lsblk/sender stubs,
corrupting-cp + vfat-chmod overrides, per-test lsblk JSON fixtures):
40/40 green.
Session-learned hardening (sole-developer project — terse, actionable):
- §7 env-override precedent list gains USER_SYSTEMD_DIR (network-download,
communication listeners, scheduler-lib) + the scheduler's SCHEDULE_* seams,
plus the missing-:-guard gotcha that silently writes to the real $HOME
under stub runs.
- New-tool test checklist gains an env-seam review step (grep for unguarded
config writes, prove with VAR=/tmp/x).
- §7 notes stub harnesses are throwaway by design: build in
/tmp/opencode/<tool>-test/, leave there, keep only the pattern.
- howto/schedule.md: migrate copies the rule LHS verbatim as COMMAND — the
old tool never had disk root/loadavg shorthands; rewrite those jobs.
restart <gid>: re-queue from history — torrents via rebuilt magnet
(urn:btih: + &tr= trackers), HTTP via original URIs keeping dir/out;
--continue=true resumes partials, complete files verify instantly.
retry <gid|all>: waits out internet outages (NET_PROBE seam,
--interval/--max-wait), re-queues and re-verifies; aria2 error 3 = real
problem → diagnosed + marked permanent (url:/bt: ids in download.retry,
skipped by retry all, manual restart overrides); --once/--quiet for the
healer timer.
Healer: pos-aria2-retry.{service,timer} user units — arms on download
start (add/torrent/metalink/restart), disables when nothing left.
watch <gid> auto-restarts after an outage.
Fixes from stub-suite review: ensure_healer missing from submit paths;
RESTART_NAME lost across do_restart subshell (download_name helper);
restart exited 1 (tmux test as last statement).
Stub harness (/tmp/opencode/dl-test) 119/119 green; make gen && make check green.
Docs: POS.md rows, howto/network.md outage recipe, SYSTEMD.md user units.
Persistent aria2c as a systemd user service (pos-aria2.service, enable --now,
linger warning) on localhost:6800 with a generated RPC secret in
~/.config/linux_post_install/download.env (chmod 600, env override). 18
commands: start/stop/status, add/torrent/metalink (auto-start, --tmux live
view), list/info/files/peers, pause/resume/remove/purge/move, limit/set,
watch (2s live repoll). JSON built via jq -nc --arg, never string
interpolation. Deps: aria2 in preinstall PACKAGES, aria2c/jq/curl guards
before --help. Docs: POS.md + howto/network.md + indices + Common Tasks row.
pos communication matrix sender: send (plain/--markdown/--room), login
(password->access token via m.login.password), test. Implements the
lib/notify.sh sender contract, so NOTIFY_PLATFORM=telegram,matrix now
fans out for real; matrix.env config scope registered for pos config.
pos communication matrix listener: systemd user daemon long-polling
/sync (since token, compact m.room.message filter); reacts to own user's
messages (/ and ! both resolve), threaded m.in_reply_to replies, @quiet
marker, ai bridge with per-room session, interactive editor. Added to
INTERACTIVE_CMDS.
Docs: POS.md, howto/communication.md, HOWTO.md, usage EXAMPLES.
Verified against a mock homeserver (send shape, login, owner filter,
replies, exit codes, editor). make gen && make check green.
Each line of event.env is an independent rule: ["msg" if ] <check> <op> <thr>.
Check runs on every pass; first numeric output compared float-safe; op is the
rightmost 'op threshold' pair so checks with their own >/< parse fine. Alerts
once on false->true + one recovery message on true->false (no repeats while
the condition holds); per-rule state keyed by rule-line hash in
~/.local/share/linux_post_install/eventer/state/.
Subcommands: run (timer entrypoint), config (interactive add/remove/edit with
check-validation), list (rules + live values), enable [interval] (systemd
user timer pos-event-trigger.timer; 5m..weekly or OnCalendar; graceful without
a user manager, loginctl enable-linger attempt), disable, status. --dry-run
honors the DEV.md convention. Alerts via lib/notify.sh (Telegram default).
New: bin/pos-system-event-trigger, lib/eventer-lib.sh, config/event.env
template (no-clobber via postinstall), install.sh lib install, INTERACTIVE_CMDS
entry. Docs: POS.md system row, HOWTO.md index, howto/event-trigger.md.
make gen && make check green; functional tests cover trigger/recovery/no-repeat,
float+unit parsing, editor add/remove/edit + validation + dry-run, timer
enable/disable/status, dispatcher routing.
Both tools: yt-dlp calls via spawn (honor DRY_RUN; --dry-run prints the
command and skips dep checks), -o/--output, --no-playlist, --cookies (with
file check), clean ffmpeg/yt-dlp guards, POS_FLAGS for completion, full
embedded metadata (--embed-metadata --embed-chapters --embed-thumbnail
--no-overwrites; mp3 adds --convert-thumbnails jpg + artist-from-uploader
parse-metadata). mp3 gains --by-artist (~/Music/<artist>/<title>.mp3).
mp4: -f <id>/--best/--worst skip the prompt (mutual-exclusion validated),
and the interactive picker now shows a curated [audio]/[video]/[combo]
format table on stderr (stdout carries only the chosen id — ui_pick
lesson), validates the id against the real -F output, and defaults empty
input to best. Docs: howto/media.md rewritten.
Extract reply_to_message.text (fallback caption) from each getUpdates
result and pass it to handle_message; the ai bridge prefixes the prompt
with '[Reply context — the message you are replying to]', so replying to
a /status output and asking 'ai check this details' gives the model the
actual output. AI bridge only — mapped /commands unchanged; context rides
in the user turn so the session records what was analyzed. Docs:
howto/ai.md bridge section.
pos ai gemini: --session gives ask/chat persistent memory
(~/.local/share/linux_post_install/ai/<name>.json, capped 40 turns),
new 'sessions' subcommand to list/clear; --system injects a Gemini
systemInstruction on every turn without storing it in the session file.
Telegram listener keeps one session per chat (telegram-<chat_id>), clears
on 'ai /reset', passes a Telegram-voice system prompt (emojis welcome),
and strips markdown from replies before sendMessage since messages are
sent as plain text. Docs: howto/ai.md flags/sessions/bridge behavior.
cfg_read_secret is invoked via $() inside _cfg_edit_one, so the echo that
advanced the cursor after hidden input landed on the capture pipe instead of
the terminal — every secret value stored with pos config on a real TTY got a
leading newline (e.g. AI_GEMINI_API_KEY="\n<key>"), which neither cfg_value
nor the ai/telegram load_config parsers could read back: the menu showed
'(not set)' and pos ai gemini kept demanding a key.
Fix: send that newline to stderr (>&2). Defense in depth: cfg_write and
write_config_key now strip CR and truncate multi-line pastes, and the readers
(cfg_value, ai + telegram load_config) strip CR. Reproduced and verified on a
pseudo-TTY; piped-stdin tests never caught it because non-TTY input skips the
stty/echo path.
- bin/pos-ai-gemini: one-shot ask (stdout-only, pipe-friendly), interactive
multi-turn chat REPL (q/Ctrl+C, /reset), models list; --model override,
default gemini-2.5-flash; key via x-goog-api-key header, never printed.
- Config scope 'ai' (AI_GEMINI_API_KEY secret, AI_GEMINI_MODEL) in
~/.config/linux_post_install/ai.env via 'pos config ai'; config/ai.env
template installed no-clobber by postinstall.
- Telegram listener: non-command text starting with 'ai ' (case-insensitive)
is answered by Gemini via 'pos ai gemini ask'; owner-chat only, errors
reply with the pos config ai hint. Future intents slot in as case arms.
- ai-gemini added to INTERACTIVE_CMDS (chat reads stdin).
- Docs: POS.md ai section + listener bridge, howto/ai.md, HOWTO/README
index rows, bin/pos usage example; make gen refreshed context/completions.
pos tree derives the hierarchy live from bin/pos-* filenames + # POS:
/# POS_SUBCMDS: headers, so it always matches what the dispatcher can
run. Category-less tool (like pos-config); --depth N limits nesting.
Also sharpen the agent-facing docs that the work exposed:
- AGENTS.md: drop the stale "one category-less exception" claim; document
the category-less pattern (pos-config, pos-tree) and that gen only reads
the text after the first em-dash in # POS: headers
- DEV.md: category-less vs categorized rule + header extraction note
- AGENT_Context "Adding a New Tool": new step 0 — pin the exact CLI verb
and runtime context (dev/repo-only vs installed) before writing code
- POS.md: new config + tree sections; category-less tools get their own
sections
- README: pos tree bullet following the pos X convention
- Drop sender 'config'/'config set' subcommand — redundant with 'pos config
telegram' (same POS_CONFIG registry: masked token input/display, chat-id
validation, chmod 600); sender/listener error hints now point there.
- Listener: load_map now uses a \x1f delimiter, so mapped /commands
containing '|' are no longer truncated at the first pipe.
- entertainment send: forward extra plugin args (previously dropped); pass
'--' before the message so leading '-' plugin output isn't parsed as an
option.
- write_config_key/cfg_write: replace unescaped sed writes with grep-v+append
so values with &, |, \ round-trip safely.
- sync_systemd: daemon-reload after removing timer units.
- config-ui: 'digits' validation accepts negative group/supergroup chat ids.
ui_pick printed its menu listing to stdout, so 'idx="$(ui_pick)"' captured
the menu plus the picked number; the array subscript MAP_CMDS[$idx] then
arithmetically evaluated the multi-line string and died with 'syntax error
in expression (error token is ...)'. Menu decoration now goes to stderr so
only the index reaches stdout. Pre-existing bug, exposed by the ::desc
description column.
Map entries may now carry a menu description (/cmd::desc=bash) shown in
the bot's "/" menu; it falls back to the bash command (~40 chars) when
omitted. The command list is pushed automatically after every map edit,
on --enable, and at daemon start, plus a manual --sync-commands flag
(wired into POS_FLAGS completion). Names are validated against Telegram's
lowercase [a-z0-9_] rule — invalid ones are skipped from the menu with a
warning but still resolve when typed; an empty map clears the menu.
Fixes found by unit-testing the sync path: map_has always returned false
(awk END{exit 1} overrode the match), map_set had a local cross-reference
that broke under set -u, and warn() leaked into the generated JSON (now
stderr). Docs + AGENT_TODO updated; make gen && make check pass.
pos config <TAB> re-scanned every tool's '# POS_CONFIG:' header per
keypress (dozens of subshells, greps, seds). On the loaded homelab box a
stuck completion wedged interactive shells at 69% CPU for ~an hour. make
gen now emits a static _pos_config_scopes array into completions/pos.bash
(no runtime scan; live-scan fallback if the cache is missing).
Add bin/pos-config + lib/config-ui.sh: reads the '# POS_CONFIG:' headers
across tools into a unified runtime config (~/.config/linux_post_install/
<scope>.env, chmod 600). Secret masking with show/hide, digits:/num:/url:
validation, '-' clears, blank keeps; '*plugins' expands entertainment
plugin vars from entertainment-lib.sh. pos config with no scope opens a
picker (scope list when not a TTY); completion offers scopes from the
registry at runtime.
gen-docs.sh now handles category-less tools (pos-config) instead of
emitting pos-config-config; fix set -e/pipefail abort that truncated the
header registry mid-read. install.sh ships config-ui.sh.
The --send flag duplicated the send subcommand — completion suggested both.
Now 'pos communication telegram <TAB>' completes to just 'sender' and
'listener'. send is the single canonical action.
- git mv bin/pos-communication-telegram bin/pos-communication-telegram-sender
- remove --send branch + POS_FLAGS entry; add --markdown to completion
- lib/notify.sh: notify_sender_name() maps platform telegram -> telegram-sender
(notify_send otherwise looks for bin/pos-communication-telegram)
- pos-system-health --send 'sent:' check + pos-entertainment-send use the new
name and the send subcommand
- completion: keys with nested tools but no direct tool complete to the group
suffixes (sender/listener); --type/--parse-mode value completion moved to
the new word positions
- docs updated (POS.md, AGENT_Context, DEV.md, SCRIPTS.md, notify.env,
HOWTO.md, postinstall.sh); removed phantom webhook/log/broadcast subcommands
from howto/communication.md
- spawn() now respects DRY_RUN, install.sh exports it to child phases, and
postinstall.sh wraps every user-home mutation in run() — '--dry-run' no
longer runs apt/install/clone or edits dotfiles for real
- gen-docs.sh chmods regenerated files to 644 (mktemp mv left them at 0600)
- make check now syntax-checks apps/, entertainment/, features/, templates/
- .gitignore protects config/authorized_keys + config/rclone.conf; drop the
tracked empty authorized_keys and the stray 6 MB session file
- pos-system-health --send prints 'sent:' only when a platform sender exists,
otherwise warns on stderr (notify_send is silent-fail)
- standardize sourced libs (no shebang); refresh AGENT_Context/DEV/APPS/SCRIPTS
doc drift: notify.sh in lib lists, pos-health systemd units, tsui, scripts/,
INTERACTIVE_CMDS list, entertainment scheduler (systemd timers only)
- lib/notify.sh: route notify_send to every platform in NOTIFY_PLATFORM
(notify.env, default telegram; comma-separated = send to all). New
platforms need only a bin/pos-communication-<p> sender implementing
'send <value> [--markdown]' (Matrix/Synapse ready)
- pos-communication-telegram: add --markdown as alias for --parse-mode
markdown to match the sender contract
- lib/common.sh: load_system_env() — shared ~/.config/linux_post_install/
system.env for pos-system-* tools (env exported > file > default)
- pos-system-health/backup: load system.env and show effective dynamic
values (NOTIFY_PLATFORM, HEALTH_BACKUP_MAX_AGE_DAYS, BACKUP_SERVICE_ROOTS)
in --help
- config/system.env + config/notify.env templates copied by postinstall
- systemd/pos-health.service: EnvironmentFile for both configs so the
daily digest honors them
