The sudo credential broker was never functional and added complexity
without value. This removes:
- Sudo field from bypass Request structs (broker, client, toolsrv)
- Sudo parameter from EvaluateRequest interface and implementations
- Sudo/ResetsCounter fields from MetaFile and Variant structs
- sudo: true from system_logs.meta variants
- All sudo documentation from writing-tools.md, tool-registry.md,
core.md, evolution.md, and misc.md
Bypass remains fully functional for sandbox escapes. Tools that need
elevated privileges should handle that internally or be run manually.
- Rename 'chat' to 'log': returns last 64KB sliding window (static read).
Tail still works via Qid.Vers. Full history persisted to disk per turn.
- Add 'chat' streaming file: blocking read that delivers new output as
the agent produces it. Per-fid offset tracked via waitBase. Blocks
indefinitely between turns (no EOF). EOF only on kill/session death.
- Add LongBlock interface to File: streaming files bypass the 5s read
timeout. Server returns content directly (ignores Tread offset for
streaming files since waitBase tracks position).
- Add 'kill'/'.'' ctl aliases with FIXME: currently kills entire session.
When multi-agent-per-session lands, kill should kill agent only.
- Rewrite acme frontend (cmd/Ollie) to use 9P client directly instead
of FUSE mount. streamChat() is a blocking read loop — no polling.
All file operations (read, write, ls) go through plan9/client.
- Add 9P streaming prototype in experiments/9p-stream demonstrating
the blocking-read pattern for token delivery.
The key insight: 9P's request-response model gives natural streaming.
Server holds the Tread until data arrives, client blocks on Read().
No polling, no signals, no offset tracking needed.
Updated the documentation to clarify issues encountered during the agent orchestration process, including notification failures, state desynchronization, and hallucination of unnecessary files. Added proposed recovery procedures and future work suggestions to enhance agent performance.
