Spec() now takes *Server and all handlers are closures that capture it.
Removed Ctx type, type aliases, and separate handler functions.
The tree structure and behavior are declared together in one place.
The registry was keyed by agent ID but read it from a shared env map
(st.env["OLLIE_UNAME"]) that all agents overwrote — making it
effectively per-session with a race condition.
Fix: pass agent ID explicitly through the protocol at every call site.
- ctl protocol: 'load <agentID> <tool>', 'unload <agentID> <tool>'
- tools file: rdwr (Request) — write agent ID, read filtered list
- proc/new payload: 'agent=<id>' field required
- Client: SetAgentID() stores identity, included in all operations
- Empty agent ID is a hard error everywhere
- Setting OLLIE_UNAME via env ctl is blocked (prevents reintroduction)
- Timeout: timeout=0 means no deadline (was defaulting to 30s)
- Signal: send to process group (-pgid) not just process; SIGTERM no longer
cancels context (only SIGKILL does); cmd.Cancel sends SIGTERM with 5s WaitDelay
- Streaming: background procs stream output in real-time via procWriter;
shell tool no longer buffers all output into a bash variable
- Proc tree: olliesrv exposes proc/{id}/out, proc/{id}/ctl, proc/{id}/status
as proper 9P directory (was broken flat file)
- Connection: proc handlers dial fresh toolsrv conn per request via
Session.DialToolServer() to avoid deadlocking the agent's blocked conn
- Stat format: key=value (exited=true, exit_code=N, id=N) matching client parser
- GC: procs auto-removed 10min after LastRead (exited procs only)
- Rename: PID -> ID throughout (synthetic, not OS PID)
- Ctl commands: term (SIGTERM), kill (SIGKILL), signal <n>, dismiss
- System prompt: correct ollie-9p commands for proc management
When a tool call includes "background": true, it executes via
proc/new.bg and returns immediately with a PID in a
<system-proc-background> tag. The agent tracks active background
processes and injects their output as <system-proc-interrupt> blocks
alongside subsequent tool results.
The model sees background updates without polling. It can react to
build failures, log events, etc. naturally. Kill via PID when done.
Implementation:
- toolsrv client: CallToolBackground (uses proc/new.bg as rdwr)
- toolsrv: proc/new.bg upgraded from write-only to request-response
- agent: bgTracker collects last 20 lines of output per proc
- agent loop: injects interrupts after execToolCalls, before h.update
- system prompt: documents the background mechanism and rules
- Move toolsrv logic into internal/{fs,exec,registry} packages to match
olliesrv's structure. server.go (9P protocol) stays at top level.
- Deduplicate parseKV/parsePayload: remove dead code from old spec9p.go,
single implementation in internal/fs/parse.go.
- Add structured logging via log/slog (replaces fmt.Fprintf to stderr).
- Standardize qid path hashing to fnv.New64a (matches olliesrv).
- Fix toolsrv process leaks:
- Add Pdeathsig to local spawn so toolsrv dies when olliesrv exits.
- Add idle timeout (30s with no connections after first client seen).
- ProcessKeeper.Dial() kills old process before respawning.
