The step budget mechanism is gone. Agents run until they finish,
are interrupted by the user, or (for sub-agents) hit the timeout.
No replacement. The human is the kill switch.
- Move user-preferences.md from data/prompts/ to data/agents/.
- Remove it from prompt arrays in all agent JSON configs.
- Add userPrompts field referencing the file via $XDG_CONFIG_HOME path.
- Update justfile install target accordingly.
- Remove "hooks" blocks from all 8 agent JSON files (copilot, default, driver, explorer, librarian, navigator, taskmanager, theo)
- Remove beads shell one-liner from prompt arrays in default.json and driver.json
- Hooks mechanism is dead code; these empty blocks are just noise
- Remove all OLLIE_*_PATH vars (TOOLS_PATH, CFG_PATH, DATA_PATH, etc.)
Use XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ollie/* and XDG_DATA_HOME/ollie/* instead
- Replace OLLIE_<TAG>_LOG per-component logging with single OLLIE_LOG={level}
- Replace OLLIE_USAGE_LOG with XDG_DATA_HOME-based path
- Replace OLLIE_OLLAMA_URL with standard OLLAMA_HOST (or omit entirely)
- Rename protocol markers: OLLIE_LISTEN_READY → ListenReady, OLLIE_9P_OPEN → Open
- Remove freeloader hooks from agent configs
- Update sandbox YAMLs to use XDG paths instead of OLLIE_*_PATH tokens
- Update shell tools to use $(dirname "$0") fallback instead of OLLIE_TOOLS_PATH
- Update docs and prompts accordingly
