* chore(docs): Add Documentation for Scopes
* chore(docs): add scopes to API reference, architecture, and design patterns
- Add the seven /scopes routes and their schemas to openapi.json, plus the
scope/kind fields on chat, representation, session-create, and peer-list
schemas; generate the endpoint pages and register a scopes nav group
- Add a Scopes subsection and diagram node to the architecture data model
- Add scope guidance to design patterns: quick-reference rows, an isolation
boundary comparison (workspace / scope / session allowlist), and common
mistakes (scope-per-reader, scopes-as-access-control)
- Replace the "Underneath the Facade" section in scopes.mdx with behavioral
guardrails and pointers to the implementation source
* chore(docs): tighten scopes doc to decision-level detail
- Drop the recall-resolution diagram (restated the Two Arms table)
- Replace the enumerated Rules table with prose; caps and error shapes
now live in the API reference schema descriptions
- Trim backfill/removal internals to observable behavior and note that a
backfilled scope deepens through subsequent dreams
* chore(docs): reserve "scope" for the scopes feature
Using it as a verb for session design, recall filters, and CLI targeting
collides with the named-session-set feature.
* chore(docs): clarify the scopes page and document create/status responses
The page now leads with projection rather than partition and points at the
scopes API; OpenAPI declares the 201/409/404 those routes actually return.
* chore(docs): fix broken anchor and core-concepts link
The rebase reintroduced a link to a renamed anchor in scopes.mdx, and
unified-memory-setup pointed at /core-concepts/, which has no index page.
* chore(docs): correct scope arms, listing, and read-surface pointers
The Accepts row mixed named-scope with the allowlist arm, kind=scope on
the peers list does not return facade ids, and chat/context/search never
mentioned scope=.
* chore(docs): drop the 1k-token session batching narrative
Reasoning no longer waits on a per-session token threshold, so product
docs should not tell people to size sessions around that gate.
* chore: minor fix
DEV-2465 open question 5, option d. Mintlify's built-in integration
loaded PostHog unconditionally on all 249 docs pages — a visitor who
declined on the homepage was tracked one click later in the docs. The
integration key comes out of docs.json; docs/posthog-consent.js loads
PostHog directly instead, only when the CookieConsent cookie grants
Statistics (or holds Cookiebot's -1 marker), and listens for the
consent events so a grant on the docs banner itself loads it too.
Trade recorded on the ticket: this bypasses the ph.mintlify.com proxy,
so ad blockers reduce docs PostHog volume. Verify after deploy that
Mintlify's page CSP allows us-assets.i.posthog.com; if it blocks,
fall back to option c.
DEV-2465 step 1. Mintlify injects gtm.js on all docs pages; the
container is audited to be inert on /docs before this merges, so the
snippet loads and nothing fires. Cookiebot and GA4 arrive later as
container publishes, consent first.
Merging this publishes the docs within minutes, so it stays unmerged
until Marc confirms the container audit.

* fix(llm): support combined tool calling and structured output across backends
- OpenAI: parse() 500s on non-strict function tools; route tool-carrying
structured requests through create() with an explicit json_schema
response_format (mirrors the streaming path)
- Anthropic: skip the '{' JSON prefill when tools are present so tool_use
blocks stay reachable; make the schema instruction conditional and rely
on parse + repair
- Gemini: native response_schema + function calling is rejected before
Gemini 3; with tools present, inject a schema instruction into the final
turn instead and rely on parse + repair
- All backends: tool-call turns carry no consumable content, so skip
structured-output parsing on them
Extracted from the dialectic structured-output branch (DEV-1652) so the
transport layer can land independently.

* test(live_llm): exercise combined tools + structured output per provider
Two-turn live flow per backend: a forced tool-call turn (structured
parsing must be skipped) followed by a replay turn that must return a
schema-conforming answer with tools still attached. Asserts the
provider-specific request shaping: no parse() for OpenAI (500s on
non-strict tools), no '{' prefill for Anthropic, no native
response_schema for Gemini.
Verified against live OpenAI (gpt-4.1, gpt-5, gpt-5.4, gpt-5.4-mini)
and Gemini (gemini-2.5-flash).

* test(unified): dialectic chat with response_format schema under tool use
Adds response_format pass-through to the unified runner's chat query and
a test case that forces the dialectic tool loop (reasoning off + global
enumeration question) while requiring a schema-conforming JSON answer —
end-to-end coverage of the combined tools + structured output transport
path on whichever provider each level is configured with.
Verified locally against a full harness run (json_match assertions pass;
the llm_judge assertion additionally runs in CI where the Anthropic key
is available).

* fix: some needed unrelated test failures
* ci: add label-triggered live LLM test workflow
Adding the run-live-llm label to a PR (or workflow_dispatch) runs
tests/live_llm/ against real provider APIs — the only place the
--live-llm suite runs in CI. Reuses the unified-tests environment and
its Secrets Manager staging-dotenv resolution for provider keys; runs
on ubuntu-latest (no Fly runner, no Docker — the suite only touches the
LLM backends). Pins LIVE_LLM_ANTHROPIC_45_PLUS_MODELS=claude-sonnet-4-5
since the Anthropic family has no default models and would otherwise
silently collect empty.
Opt-in by design: live model behavior is variable, so this is a signal,
not a required check.
DEV-2035

* ci: run live LLM tests on main pushes touching the transport
Mirrors unified-tests' push trigger, scoped to paths that can affect
the live suite (src/llm/, config, the tests, deps, and the workflow
itself) so provider API calls aren't spent on unrelated changes.

* ci: disable auth in live LLM test environment
The staging dotenv sets AUTH_USE_AUTH=true without a usable JWT secret,
and src/config.py validates the pair at import time — the same reason
unified-tests overrides it. This suite never runs the API server.

* test(live_llm): fix gpt-5.4 reasoning_effort and gemini replay-turn flake
- test_live_openai: gpt-5.4 dropped 'minimal' from the reasoning_effort
vocabulary, so the gpt5 caching test 400'd — and the OpenAI backend's
BadRequestError terminal swallowed it into an empty CompletionResult.
Pick the effort per model generation.
- test_live_tools_structured_output: use tool_choice='auto' on the
replay turn, matching the production dialectic loop (which never
forces 'none') — NONE mode is what provoked gemini-2.5-flash's empty
candidates. Drop the temperature pin so retries actually resample,
and treat a repeat tool call as a retryable attempt.
Verified live: full suite green, gemini 4/4 consecutive passes.

* ci: fail live LLM run when no staging secret was loaded
If the latest-tag fetch fails and no second tag exists, the fallback
step is skipped rather than failed, and the job would proceed without
provider keys — every test then skips via require_provider_key and the
run goes green. Guard on both fetch outcomes so that path fails loudly.

* fix(deriver): Remove connection retry logic and add jitter to polling interval
* chore(docs): Update changelog and document new configurations
* chore: increment version numbers
* feat(embedding): add dimensions_mode for OpenAI dimensions= forwarding
Add EMBEDDING_MODEL_CONFIG__DIMENSIONS_MODE (auto|always|never) controlling
whether the dimensions= parameter is forwarded on OpenAI embeddings.create
calls. auto (default) sends it when the operator explicitly set
EMBEDDING_VECTOR_DIMENSIONS and the configured model is not on the
known-rejecting allowlist (currently text-embedding-ada-002).
The provenance check (was VECTOR_DIMENSIONS explicitly set?) lives as
EmbeddingSettings.resolve_send_dimensions() because it needs access to
model_fields_set, which the standalone resolver does not have. The
resolved boolean is passed into _EmbeddingClient at construction time;
the client never inspects mode or provenance.
Also pins cloudevents <2.0 — 2.0.0 reorganized the package and dropped
cloudevents.conversion and cloudevents.http, which src/telemetry/emitter.py
imports. The original `>=1.12.0` constraint allowed the broken 2.0 resolve.
With the pin, the imports resolve cleanly and the basedpyright warning
cascade (37+ warnings about unknown types) disappears.
Drive-by cleanups (all unnecessary cast/ignore comments flagged by
basedpyright after the cloudevents downgrade):
- vector_store/lancedb.py, tests/conftest.py, and
tests/deriver/test_vector_reconciliation.py — drop dead pyright ignores
- sdks/python/src/honcho/http/{async_,}client.py — drop unnecessary
cast(datetime, ...) (parsedate_to_datetime already returns datetime)
- vector_store/turbopuffer.py — cast(Any, rows) for the upsert_rows
TypedDict that the SDK exposes but our row builder doesn't satisfy
- tests/test_datetime_parsing.py — ignore reportArgumentType on the
test that deliberately passes wrong types to assert raises
* feat(models): honor EMBEDDING_VECTOR_DIMENSIONS in pgvector columns
* feat(startup): atomic swap dim-vs-MIGRATED guard for runtime schema validator
Add src/startup/embedding_validator.py that introspects the actual pgvector
column dim at boot and refuses to start if it does not match
EMBEDDING_VECTOR_DIMENSIONS. Runs after the DB pool is up and before the
embedding client is constructed, in both src/main.py (FastAPI lifespan) and
src/deriver/__main__.py.
Implementation details:
- Schema-qualified pg_attribute join through pg_class/pg_namespace respects
DB.SCHEMA rather than relying on search_path
- Bounded retry (3 attempts, 1s backoff) for transient introspection failure,
then fail-closed with "could not validate embedding schema" — uncertainty
is not a green light to serve traffic
- External-store sampler (turbopuffer, lancedb) enumerates workspaces from
the application DB and probes their lazy-created namespaces; current
per-namespace probe is a no-op stub since the SDKs do not expose
uniform dim introspection — full enumeration is left to
`configure_embeddings --report` in Phase 3
Atomic guard swap: deletes the old dim-vs-MIGRATED config validator (which
forbade non-1536 pgvector unless MIGRATED=True) in the same commit as the
new runtime validator. There is no release window where non-1536 pgvector
can start unprotected. The 9 dual-write branches that use VECTOR_STORE.MIGRATED
remain untouched and load-bearing for legacy-tenant backend swaps.
VECTOR_STORE_DIMENSIONS deprecation: drop the "must match" raise; in
propagate_namespace, check model_fields_set and emit logger.warning +
DeprecationWarning (DeprecationWarning alone is filtered by Python's default
config and would not reach operators). Always overwrite with
EMBEDDING.VECTOR_DIMENSIONS regardless.
Test changes:
- tests/test_models_vector_dim.py: Phase 1's VECTOR_STORE_TYPE=lancedb +
MIGRATED=true escape hatches removed; the test now passes on plain
EMBEDDING_VECTOR_DIMENSIONS=768
- tests/llm/test_model_config.py: the two tests asserting the old guards
replaced with tests for the new deprecation + acceptance behavior
- tests/startup/test_embedding_validator.py: 10 new tests — dim assertion
logic (pass/mismatch/missing/unbounded/non-public-schema), fail-closed
retry budget, real-test-DB pass, real-DB ALTER-then-validate, deprecation
warning capture, non-1536 + pgvector + MIGRATED=false at config time
* feat(scripts): add configure_embeddings bootstrap CLI
Adds scripts/configure_embeddings.py alongside the other one-off scripts
(provision_db, migrate_db, generate_jwt_secret, etc.). Invoked as
`uv run python scripts/configure_embeddings.py` — same convention as the
existing scripts in that directory, including the sys.path shim that
lets src.* imports resolve when run directly.
Bootstrap step for self-hosted installs at a non-default
EMBEDDING_VECTOR_DIMENSIONS — runs between `alembic upgrade head` and
starting the API/deriver.
pgvector ALTER safety (single transaction):
- LOCK TABLE {schema}.documents, {schema}.message_embeddings IN ACCESS
EXCLUSIVE MODE — closes the TOCTOU window between population check
and ALTER
- COUNT(*) WHERE embedding IS NOT NULL on both tables; refuse with a
non-zero exit if either is populated (ALTER ... USING NULL would
silently wipe those vectors)
- Snapshot HNSW index DDL from pg_indexes; drop, ALTER, recreate from
the captured DDL so operator-set HNSW params (m, ef_construction)
survive the round trip
External vector stores (turbopuffer, lancedb) are never created or
modified — namespaces are per-workspace and lazy-created on first write.
The --report mode enumerates workspaces and collections from the
application DB, derives the expected namespaces via
get_vector_namespace(), and prints a per-namespace status table.
CLI modes (mutually exclusive):
- (default) interactive: print plan, prompt to confirm
- --dry-run: print plan and exit 0 without touching the DB
- --yes: apply without prompt
- --report: print external-store namespace inventory and exit
Also updates src/startup/embedding_validator.py error-message paths and
docs/v3/contributing/configuration.mdx invocations to point at the new
script location.
Tests cover plan no-op, plan needs-alter, plan raises on missing column,
ALTER + HNSW round-trip, refuse-when-populated (monkeypatched count to
avoid wiring the full workspace/peer/collection/document FK chain just
to land one vector row), and idempotency.
* docs: add changing-embeddings operations page
Document the supported way to change EMBEDDING_VECTOR_DIMENSIONS or
EMBEDDING_MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL on a Honcho deployment: provision a new
deployment at the desired configuration, replay source data out of
band, cut over at the application layer.
The page explains the asymmetry:
- Dimension is machine-enforced as immutable. The startup validator
introspects pg_attribute and crashes the API/deriver on mismatch.
- Model is operator-owned. There is no persistent metadata recording
which model produced each vector, so a same-dim model swap is
silently undetectable — flagged with a Warning callout.
Also documents the truncation edge case (text-embedding-3-large truncated to 1536 with EMBEDDING_VECTOR_DIMENSIONS left at default)
and the DIMENSIONS_MODE=always mitigation, plus a pointer that
storage-backend swap (VECTOR_STORE_MIGRATED + reconciler) is a distinct operation unaffected by this work.
Registers the page in docs/docs.json under the Self-Hosting nav group
and cross-links from configuration.mdx.
* fix(embedding): correct turbopuffer regex + tighten DIMENSIONS_MODE docs
- Turbopuffer attribute type for a vector column is `[N]f32` / `[N]f16` /
`[N]i8`, not `f32_vector(N)` as the earlier probe assumed. The earlier
regex returned None for the real SDK format, so existing Turbopuffer
namespaces would have been reported as "missing" instead of validated
for mismatch. Regex switched to `\[(\d+)\]` which is the
vendor-stable shape. Test cases rewritten to lock the actual format.
- docs/v3/contributing/configuration.mdx had a contradictory pair of
bullets: 223 said explicit 1536 makes `auto` forward dimensions=, 224
said `auto` would skip the parameter because 1536 is the default.
Operators reading both would (rightly) conclude they need `always`
even when `auto` would work. Rewrote both bullets so:
- `auto` is provenance-driven (explicit-set, not non-default-value).
- `always` is positioned as defense-in-depth for config layers that
might strip explicit default-valued envs, not the only path for
same-as-default truncation.
* fix(embedding): address PR #678 review comments
CodeRabbit + Rajat review feedback. All actionable items addressed
except two false-positives (responded on PR).
Bug fixes:
- deriver telemetry leak: validator was called outside try/finally so
shutdown_telemetry() did not run on validation failure. Moved inside.
- _emit_report printed "no effect with pgvector" unconditionally,
including from implicit post-apply calls. Added is_report_mode flag;
only print on explicit --report.
- LanceDB and Turbopuffer probes returned None when the namespace
existed but its schema was malformed (no vector field / unparseable
type string), silently bucketing real corruption as "missing"
(lazy-create) and letting it pass the startup validator. Now raise
VectorStoreError with actionable diagnostics; None remains valid only
for "namespace does not exist."
- Startup validator only sampled message namespaces; added a parallel
Collection-row sample so document namespaces are probed too, with the
same dim assertion. Mirrors the --report path.
Hygiene:
- StartupValidationError now subclasses HonchoException so existing
exception handlers recognize it. ValidationException is @final and
has 422 request-validation semantics that would be misleading here.
- scripts/configure_embeddings.py main() no longer spins up two event
loops. engine.dispose() moved into a try/finally inside _async_main
so cleanup runs in the same loop as the pipeline.
- Replaced hand-rolled retry loop with tenacity.AsyncRetrying; same
fail-closed semantics, less code, before_sleep_log for visibility.
- Added _validate_identifier() defense-in-depth: DB.SCHEMA and HNSW
index names are regex-checked against [A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]* before
SQL interpolation. Operator config + DB catalog are not user input
under the current threat model, but the constraint is cheap to gate.
Test + docs:
- test_app_settings_accepts_non_1536_with_any_vector_store_configuration
now actually exercises turbopuffer (was missing); supplies a dummy
TURBOPUFFER_API_KEY to satisfy the model_validator.
- changing-embeddings.mdx: hyphenated "out-of-band" per reviewer style.

* fix(tests): satisfy basedpyright in test_representation_manager
The save-representation tests added in #615 were structurally correct but
failed strict typing in two places. Static Analysis has been red on main
since the merge.
- `mock_save.await_args` is `_Call | None`; assert it's not None before
reading `.kwargs` / `.args` so basedpyright can narrow the type
- `SimpleNamespace(...)` passed as `message_level_configuration` is an
intentional duck-typed mock (only `.dream.enabled` is read by
`save_representation`), so opt out at the call site with
`# pyright: ignore[reportArgumentType]` rather than constructing a
full `ResolvedConfiguration` (matches the existing `reportPrivateUsage`
ignore pattern in this file)
No runtime behavior changes; `uv run basedpyright` is now clean
project-wide.

* fix(tests): pad timestamp windows in test_messages for clock skew
Three timestamp tests captured `before_request` / `after_request` with
`datetime.now(UTC)` on the host and asserted the server's `created_at`
fell within. Under Docker, the Postgres container's clock can skew tens
of ms from the macOS host, flipping the assertion intermittently under
parallel pytest load.
Pad each window by 1 second on both sides — wide enough to absorb
realistic skew, narrow enough that the test still proves the timestamp
is server-current.

* docs(integrations): tighten Verifying section after end-to-end smoke
Smoke-tested all five verification steps against a fresh Sonnet 4.6 + Honcho integration. Three findings, all reflected here:
- Cross-session recall (#4): added Note about DERIVER_REPRESENTATION_BATCH_MAX_TOKENS=1024 — short warmups don't accumulate enough content to flush observations, so cross-session recall returns empty even on a working integration.
- Tool calling prompt (#5): replaced the honcho_chat patterns prompt with a verbatim-retrieval honcho_search prompt. Sonnet skips honcho_chat when middleware-injected context already answers; verbatim retrieval forces a fire.
- Tool inspection (#5): replaced result.toolCalls reference with result.steps[i].toolCalls + flatMap snippet. Top-level toolCalls is empty in multi-step calls (stopWhen: stepCountIs(N)) — the fires are nested inside steps.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* docs(integrations): make Step 4 cross-session test durable via honcho_search
Replace the prose-recall test ("Based on what we've talked about, what do you know about me?") with a forced honcho_search call. Prose recall depended on the model getting deriver-built representation/peer-card in its system prompt, which is gated behind DERIVER_REPRESENTATION_BATCH_MAX_TOKENS=1024 — short tutorial-length conversations don't trigger it, producing false negatives on a working integration.
honcho_search hits message embeddings, which are computed synchronously at message persist time (src/crud/message.py:262-276), so peer-scoped retrieval works regardless of how short the prior session was. Also folds the result.steps[i].toolCalls inspection snippet from the old Step 5 into Step 4 — same prompt, no need for two sections.
Drops Step 5 entirely.

* fix: Inconsistencies in Docs, health endpoint, troubleshooting guide
* fix: (docs) maintain consistency on postgres db name
* chore: (docs) update v2 contributing docs with updates db paths
* docs: overhaul self-hosting docs for provider-agnostic setup
- .env.template: lead with provider options (custom, vllm, google,
anthropic, openai, groq) instead of baking in vendor-specific keys.
All provider/model settings commented out so server fails fast until
configured. Separate endpoint config from per-feature provider+model
from tuning knobs.
- docker-compose.yml.example: fix healthcheck -d honcho -> -d postgres
to match POSTGRES_DB=postgres.
- config.toml.example: reorder and document LLM key section with
OpenRouter and vLLM examples.
- self-hosting.mdx: replace multi-vendor key table with provider options
table. Add examples for OpenRouter, vLLM/Ollama, and direct vendor
keys. Remove duplicated key lists from Docker/manual setup sections.
- configuration.mdx: replace scattered provider docs with provider types
table. Fix Docker Compose snippet to match actual compose file. Note
code defaults as fallback, not recommended path.
- troubleshooting.mdx: add alternative provider issues section (custom
provider config, model name format, Docker localhost, structured
output failures).
* docs: add Docker build troubleshooting for permission errors
- Document BuildKit requirement (RUN --mount syntax)
- AppArmor/SELinux blocking Docker builds on Linux
- Volume mount UID mismatch between host and container app user
- Note in self-hosting docs that Docker path builds from source
* docs: reframe self-hosting as contributor/dev path, point to cloud service
* Revert "docs: reframe self-hosting as contributor/dev path, point to cloud service"
This reverts commit 3e766eb1a9.
* docs: add production compose, model guidance, thinking budget docs
- Add docker-compose.prod.yml for VM/server deployment: no source
mounts, restart policies, 127.0.0.1-bound ports, cache enabled
- Add model tier guidance and community quick-start link to self-hosting
- Document THINKING_BUDGET_TOKENS gotcha for non-Anthropic providers
- Add reverse proxy examples (Caddy + nginx) to production section
- Add backup/restore commands to production considerations
* docs: simplify self-hosting to single provider, restructure config guide
Self-hosting page now defaults to one OpenAI-compatible endpoint
with one model for all features. Moved model tiers, alternative
providers, and per-feature tuning into the configuration guide.
Eliminated duplicate config priority sections, dev/prod split,
and redundant TOML examples.
* docs: merge compose files, restore provider/model to feature sections in .env.template
Single docker-compose.yml.example with dev sections commented out.
Moved PROVIDER and MODEL back alongside each feature in .env.template
so settings stay colocated with their module. Updated self-hosting
docs to reference single compose file.
* fix: broken anchor links, redundant migration step, minor inconsistencies
Fix 4 broken internal links (#llm-provider-setup, #llm-api-keys,
#which-api-keys-do-i-need, #alternative-providers) to point to
correct headings. Remove redundant Docker migration step (entrypoint
already runs alembic). Fix cache URL missing ?suppress=true in
reference config. Fix uv install command to use official method.
* docs: env template ready to use, simplify self-hosting flow
.env.template now has provider/model lines uncommented with
placeholder values — user just sets endpoint, key, and model name.
Thinking budgets default to 0 for non-Anthropic providers.
Self-hosting page: removed 30-line env var wall, LLM setup now
points to the template. Merged duplicate verify sections.
Removed api_key from SDK examples (auth off by default).
* docs: reorder next steps, configuration guide first
* fix: default embedding provider to openrouter for single-endpoint setup
Without this, embeddings default to openai which requires a separate
LLM_OPENAI_API_KEY. Setting to openrouter routes embeddings through
the same OpenAI-compatible endpoint as everything else.
* fix: review issues — hermes page, thinking budget, production wording
Hermes integration page: replaced inline Docker/manual setup with
link to self-hosting guide, added elkimek community link. Removed
old env var names (OPENAI_API_KEY without LLM_ prefix).
Troubleshooting: removed "or 1" from thinking budget guidance.
Self-hosting: softened "production-ready" to "production-oriented"
since auth is disabled by default.
* docs: model examples in template, expanded LLM setup, better verify flow
.env.template: added "e.g. google/gemini-2.5-flash" hints next to
model placeholders so users know the expected format.
Self-hosting: expanded LLM Setup to show the 3 things users need to
set (endpoint, key, model name) with find-replace tip. Added build
time note, deriver log check, and real smoke test (create workspace)
to verify section. Health check now notes it doesn't verify DB/LLM.
* fix: smoke test uses v3 API path, not v1
* docs: clarify deriver metrics port vs Prometheus host port
* fix: remove deprecated memoryMode from hermes config example
* docs: update hermes page to match current memory provider config
Updated config to match hermes-agent docs: removed apiKey (not needed
for self-hosted), added hermes memory setup CLI command, added config
fields table (recallMode, writeFrequency, sessionStrategy, etc.).
Better verification tests: store-and-recall across sessions, direct
tool calling test. Links to upstream hermes docs for full field list.
* fix: invalid THINKING_BUDGET_TOKENS=0 and missing docker/ in image
Comment out THINKING_BUDGET_TOKENS=0 in .env.template — deriver,
summary, and dream validators require gt=0. Dialectic levels also
commented out since non-thinking models don't need the override.
Add COPY for docker/ directory in Dockerfile so entrypoint.sh is
available when docker-compose.yml.example references it.

* feat: add nanobot-honcho claude skill
guided integration skill for adding honcho long-term memory to
HKUDS/nanobot instances. includes SKILL.md with step-by-step
instructions and reference implementations for client, session
manager, and agent tool.
* restructure: nanobot-honcho -> bot-integrations skill
Replace one-off nanobot-honcho skill with general bot-integrations skill
targeting the common architectural pattern shared by conversational bot
frameworks (agent loop, session manager, tool registry, message bus).
Structure:
.claude/skills/bot-integrations/
SKILL.md # adaptive skill for any bot framework
references/nanobot/ # concrete nanobot implementations
SKILL.md walks through 4 phases (explore, interview, implement, verify)
with awareness of bot frameworks. When it detects a known framework, it
pulls from the matching reference folder for concrete implementations.
Reference files updated with:
- sync flag moved to after API call success
- cache consistency for aliased sessions
- MEMORY.md/HISTORY.md migration support
- migration transcript formatting with XML context tags
Future framework references (openclaw, picoclaw, etc) drop into
references/<framework>/ as they trend.

* feat: implement async workspace deletion with active session checks
- Updated the DELETE /workspaces/:id endpoint to return 202 Accepted, indicating that the deletion request is processed in the background.
- Added a check for active sessions before allowing workspace deletion, raising a ConflictException if any exist.
- Updated related tests to ensure proper handling of active sessions during workspace deletion.
