olliesrv no longer has start/fgstart/stop/status subcommands — it runs
in the foreground and relies on the supervisor (systemd, openrc, or
xdg-autostart) for lifecycle management. This simplifies the binary
and makes the single-process model explicit.
Changes:
- All docs: olliesrv start → olliesrv
- justfile: add install-services target, used by all install recipes;
installs systemd user unit, openrc init script, xdg autostart entry;
remove inline autostart installs from individual targets
- systemd unit: ExecStart drops "start" subcommand
- openrc init script: deleted (was for daemonized start; now managed
via install-services)
- xdg-autostart: new desktop entry (moved from 9p/ submodule),
Exec=olliesrv (no longer shells out to start + remount)
- contrib/ollie-remount: add debug echo for namespace/socket
- 9p submodule: remove daemon subcommands from Go code;
delete old desktop file
- el submodule: update README for foreground-only olliesrv
The D-Bus adapter only exposed 4 parameters (cwd, backend, model, agent)
but the session manager supports 6 (+ system_prompt, remote). The remote
had already added system_prompt as the 5th; this adds remote as the 6th.
All frontends (KDE plasmoid, Kate, tray, dolphin, webui, httpgw) and
tool scripts now pass the correct 6 arguments.
These tools were never reliably used by agents. Planning is handled
via in-context plan files (s/{id}/plan) and the replan/stall detection
in the agent loop.
The adapter is now started by the system service manager, not
on-demand from inside the sandbox. ensureElevateAdapter was
removed from core in the previous commit.
Design for local agent loop + remote tool execution over SSH.
Inspired by goq toolserv/ssh.go pattern: bootstrap a minimal binary
on the remote host, communicate via JSON-RPC over stdin/stdout.
Keeps LLM streaming, D-Bus signals, and GUI local while executing
tools on a remote filesystem.
Reframe from "everything is a file" as the sole design principle to
the actual layered philosophy:
- Design: small extensible core (Emacs-like)
- Integration: 9P filesystem (canonical) or D-Bus (conventional)
Both are thin adapters over the same agent.Core.
- Remove references to non-existent 9P paths (t/idx, sk/idx, m/, etc)
- Update system overview diagram to show KDE/Web frontends over D-Bus
- Show embedded D-Bus adapter in olliesrv and ollied alternative
- Update tool/skill discovery references to use env vars
- Update agent config example to current format
- Add -model and -backend flags; read OLLIE_COMPLETE_MODEL /
OLLIE_COMPLETE_BACKEND as defaults; error if neither is set
- Guard against winid=0 (acme column tag / +Errors window)
- Document OLLIE_COMPLETE_MODEL and OLLIE_COMPLETE_BACKEND in
README.md and doc/env.sample
