Wire hermit_getenv across the engine, rebrand WebUI/systemd/docs, and
add apps/desktop (Tauri 2 + React) with a DeepSeek-Harness-like UI.
Qt app/ is frozen; full libcstcore FFI is scaffolded behind --features engine.

WHC 235652604d feat: add Kimi Code and web APIs 2026-10-19 10:41:00 +08:00
WHC 2ffe74b37c desktop: the window installs itself (launcher entry, icon, default.nix)
app/linux/cst-agent-app.{desktop,svg} plus one CMake component ("app") in
app/CMakeLists.txt: `cmake --install --component app` puts the binary in bin/,
the entry in share/applications/ and the icon in hicolor/scalable/apps/. The
entry's file name stays the app_id Qt sets (QGuiApplication::applicationName),
or the launcher draws a generic icon; only the front end installs, the CLI
keeps coming from scripts/bootstrap_linux.sh.

default.nix is that install for nix users: nixpkgs' Qt 6 (qtwayland for a
Wayland session, qtsvg for Breeze's SVG icons), wrapQtAppsHook so the plugins
and QML modules resolve outside a nix-shell and survive nix-collect-garbage,
a filtered src (third_party/ and the build directories are gigabytes this
build never reads), and the version read from include/cst_version.h. doCheck
runs ctest minus test_sandbox, whose Landlock assertion cannot hold inside the
nix build sandbox (the other 40 pass there; make check runs all 41).

Verified: nix-build, nix profile add --file ., then --selftest and --uitest in
a clean environment (no nix-shell, no XDG_* from the session).

WHC c2320f946b v0.9.0: the Qt front end as an Android APK, images in the transcript
Two strands land together: the window draws pictures now, and the whole front
end builds, installs and runs on the phone with the engine linked in-process.

Images (the "make a picture actually show up" part)
- Engine, additively: cst_agent_hooks_t.on_tool_images(call, list, n, ud) fires
  when a call left attachments behind, and cst_agent_pending_rel() /
  cst_agent_pending_is_image() read that list without the app touching the
  store. tests/test_attach.c::test_agent_pending pins the three cases (an
  image, a stored name that passes cst_attach_rel_ok, out-of-range NULL).
- App: image://cstattach/<stored name> (app/src/ui/SessionImages.cpp) serves
  only the current session's attachment directory, checked with
  cst_attach_rel_ok, decodes down to the requested sourceSize and never
  upscales, and holds a mutex because requestImage() runs on the render
  thread while the directory can change underneath it. AgentCore gained
  attachmentDir(), pendingImages(), the toolImages()/promptImages() signals
  and hookToolImages(); history() gives replayed rows their images too.
- QML: ImageStrip.qml (a thumb strip, <=150 px tall, shaped by the picture,
  tooltip with name/size/origin, the file's name when it went missing),
  wired into MessageCard and ToolCard. Qt 6's ListModel cannot hold a
  list-valued role (append() reads back undefined, setProperty drops it), so
  a row carries one image per line as <stored>|<name>|<origin>|<w>x<h> and
  ImageStrip decodes that.

Android (the engine is already in the APK; this is the front end)
- app/src/main.cpp: on Android the workspace, config, tmp and HOME go under
  the app's own data directory before the engine opens anything, because
  QDir::currentPath() is "/" there and /tmp is not writable.
- app/android/: the manifest (QtApplication/QtActivity, INTERNET and
  POST_NOTIFICATIONS, adjustResize, no storage permission -- the picker will
  be the system one), strings, a vector icon; minSdk 24 and targetSdk 35 come
  from app/CMakeLists.txt through QT_ANDROID_MIN/TARGET_SDK_VERSION.
- app/src/platform/android/AndroidTools.cpp: the Android file behind
  PlatformInit(), owner "app:android" (notification, clipboard, share sheet,
  file picker are stubs for now, so the tool list does not lie about them).
- app/tools/selftest.c decides its scratch workspace with os_temp_dir(), so
  the C smoke test runs on the device too.
- scripts/build_apk_android.sh: sources to installed APK in one command
  (environment checks, qt-cmake configure, --target apk, adb install), and
  the host-side plumbing the NixOS + qt.io combination needs -- the NDK
  sysroot include dirs for Qt's FindGLESv2/FindEGL (they only look under
  <sysroot>/include), -L$PREFIX/lib on the shared/module link lines as well
  as the executables', the Android debug keystore created on first use with
  QT_ANDROID_SIGN_APK + QT_ANDROID_KEYSTORE_* (androiddeployqt copies the
  unsigned gradle output and signs it itself), and the #!/bin/bash shebang of
  the build-tools wrappers, which NixOS does not have.
- scripts/gradle-android-init.gradle (installed into ~/.gradle/init.d/): the
  release lint task is switched off -- lintVitalAnalyzeRelease resolves its
  own tool jars straight from dl.google.com, bypassing every repository the
  build configures, and fails the build after all the real work is done.
- Icons: app/icons/*.svg (Breeze's 24@3x files, the 19 names the window asks
  for) are compiled in as :/cst-icons and ThemeIcons.cpp falls back to them
  when the platform has no icon theme. On the phone the Qt theme lookup found
  nothing and the QML glyph fallback was an empty box in the phone's fonts.
- docs/android.md: "The APK (Qt front end)" -- the SDK assembled without
  sdkmanager, the host Qt's missing libraries on NixOS, the Gradle mirrors,
  lint, signing -- and a Status that says what runs where. app/README.md
  gains the images and APK lines, and stops claiming Android platform tools
  that are still stubs.

Verified: engine `make check` green; desktop `cst-app-selftest: OK` and
--uitest all checks pass; phone (NX789J, Android 16, arm64-v8a) -- the APK
installs, starts on the workspace under /data/user/0/xyz.whcself.cstagent/
files/, a turn reaches a configured provider over HTTPS from inside the ART
process and renders the reply, rotation keeps the session and docks the
sidebar, and the toolbar/card icons draw.

Version 0.9.0.

WHC 5ba215b36c v0.8.7: tool capability metadata, in-process engine, Qt app, Android engine
The engine can be embedded now instead of only driven from a terminal: the
same objects link into a Qt front end (app/) that owns a cst_agent_t inside
its own process -- no port, no token, no second process -- and that front end
now runs on the desktop and, engine-side, on the phone.

Capability metadata (include/cst_tools.h, src/tools/registry.c):
- cst_tool_def_t gains perm_name, platforms and available (a probe that
  returns a reason), so a permission is addressable by name and a tool can
  say why it cannot run here.
- cst_platform_name(), cst_tool_platform_ok(), cst_tool_available(),
  cst_tool_meta_reload(), cst_tool_perm_name() and CST_PLAT_DESKTOP[].
- cst_tool_register() may take over a built-in name that is not runnable on
  this platform, so a front end replaces it with its own implementation.
- the registry entries carry their class (delete_file -> "delete"), the
  desktop clipboard tools carry a clipboard probe; find/active/run gate on it.
- /api/settings.tools[] exposes perm_name, platforms, available, why and the
  declared parameters.

Engine as a library (Makefile, CMakeLists.txt):
- libcstcore.a from the CORE_OBJ set, and a CMake cstcore target shared by
  the CLI and by app/ (-DCST_BUILD_APP=ON): the engine is compiled once.
- Android branch for the vendored sashidown: a per-ABI archive built with the
  NDK's aarch64-linux-android24-clang wrapper, because CMake's compiler is
  plain clang and keeps --target/--sysroot in its own variables.

Qt front end (app/, new):
- AgentCore wraps one cst_agent_t: turns run on a worker thread, every
  cst_agent_hooks_t callback becomes a Qt signal, and the two hooks that need
  an answer (on_permission, on_ask_user) block the worker until the GUI
  replies; mode, approval and plan mode go through the engine's config.
- ToolProvider hands the front end's tools to the engine (owner "app:*"); the
  Linux one is notification_send with a probe for notify-send/D-Bus.
- Main.qml: transcript, tool blocks, consent dialog (Deny/Once/Always ->
  CST_PERM_*), ask_user, mode switch, Esc to cancel; --selftest stays
  headless and runs the embedding checks without QML.

Android (scripts/, docs/android.md, new):
- scripts/build_third_party_android.sh builds static mbedTLS + libcurl for an
  ABI (CA path /system/etc/security/cacerts); build_android.sh builds
  cst-agent, libcstcore.a and the test binaries for the phone, can push them
  and run the whole suite there.
- sandbox_exec.c keeps the plain exec path on Android: the seccomp supervisor
  compiled in and the probe reported "seccomp", but writes outside the
  workspace were not denied on the device -- claiming a sandbox that does not
  hold is worse than reporting none.
- tests/test_diff.c compares layouts only against real GNU diffutils: toybox's
  diff prints the same hunk header with its own hunk/context rules.

Tests: test_tool_meta (metadata, platform gate, probe reasons, takeover of a
built-in name) and test_embed (in-process embedding contract) are new; the
existing registry/llm_body assertions now follow availability. 38 test
binaries pass on the host, 36/36 on arm64-v8a Android 16, cst-app-selftest
passes in both the standalone app/ build and the repo build.

ci / linux (gcc) (push) Failing after 34s
ci / musl (push) Successful in 7m22s
ci / windows-cross (push) Successful in 10m41s
A second implementation of cst_agent_hooks_t next to the TUI: the turn runs on
a worker thread, the hooks publish events into a ring buffer that SSE clients
read, so the engine itself needs no changes.

- src/net.c, include/cst_net.h: POSIX/Winsock sockets, non-blocking connect
- src/http_srv.c, include/cst_http.h: HTTP/1.1, keep-alive, chunked streaming,
  body caps (413), Expect: 100-continue, connection cap, exact routing
- src/web_md.c, include/cst_web_md.h: streaming markdown -> sanitized HTML
  (tag/attribute allowlist, javascript: URLs and off-site images dropped)
- src/webui.c, include/cst_webui.h: event ring + SSE broadcast, all routes,
  token (Bearer/Cookie/query) and loopback Host checks, 3 s auto-deny when no
  client is attached
- src/webui_stub.c, CST_WEBUI=0 / CST_BUILD_WEBUI=OFF: build without the WebUI
- web/: no-build front end (transcript, approvals, todo, sessions, image
  upload, status bar)
- docs/webui.md: engine API v1 - events, requests, security model
- tests/test_webui.c, scripts/e2e_webui.sh: unit tests plus an end-to-end run
  driven by a recorded SSE stream (no API key needed)
- src/main.c: --web --web-port --web-host --web-token --web-dev --web-open
  and CST_WEB_PORT/HOST/TOKEN/ROOT

An empty POST body is now accepted without Content-Length (RFC 9112 6.3) so
curl-driven clients can reach cancel/undo/compact/quit; CMakeList's core tests
learned about sashidown and test_webui, and CST_WEBUI=0 defines CST_NO_WEBUI.

ci / musl (push) Failing after 30s

Images
- vision gate: text-only models get a note instead of image parts and no
  view_image tool; unknown models retry once without images on HTTP 400
- paste: Ctrl+V and /attach paste read the clipboard (wl-paste, xclip,
  pngpaste/osascript, Win32 PNG or CF_DIB converted to PNG); pasting image
  file paths attaches them
- MCP image content is stored in the session and sent with the tool result
- attach: rel path validation, base64 decode, /retry keeps images

Model registry
- built-in src/models_builtin.json embedded at build time, merged with
  <config>/models.json and cached GET /models metadata (context, vision,
  pricing); most specific rule wins per field
- /model labels, /status source, --list-models [provider]

Cache and cost
- stable request prefix (frozen tools, notes as messages), DeepSeek prefix
  completion, OpenAI/Anthropic cache hints, /cost and hit rate in the status

Build
  * cross build switches to pkgsCross.ucrt64 (shell-win.nix); curl (Schannel),
    winpthreads and ncurses 6.6 are linked statically, so the release is
    cst-agent.exe + busybox.exe (busybox-w32 Unicode) with no extra DLLs
  * windres embeds a manifest with activeCodePage=UTF-8 and a version resource
  * ncurses 6.6 Windows console driver patches (mouse button state, A_DIM,
    wide-char declarations): scripts/patches/
  * scripts/bootstrap_msys2.sh builds the same release natively in MSYS2
    UCRT64; PR #1's MINGW64 notes now point there
  * vendor/tre-regex (musl's TRE) provides <regex.h> on MinGW

UTF-8
  * paths cross the system call boundary as UTF-16 (*W APIs); console code
    pages set to 65001 and restored on exit; files are read and written in
    binary mode
  * child output that is not valid UTF-8 is decoded from the console, OEM or
    ANSI system code page
  * read_file hides CR; edit_file, apply_patch and write_file keep CRLF line
    endings and a UTF-8 BOM

OS layer and processes
  * os_dir_* and cst_fnmatch replace the POSIX-only directory walks in
    subagent, plugins, skills, undo and fs_tools; realpath / path_under and
    symlink rejection work on Windows
  * every child goes through CreateProcessW with its own environment block
    inside a Job Object, so timeouts and Esc end the whole process tree

Sandbox (auto mode, "auto · lowil")
  * run_shell runs with a restricted Low integrity token; the workspace gets
    an inheritable Low label once, the sandbox TEMP is labeled Low, and the
    credentials file gets a no-read-up label
  * drive roots, the profile and system folders are never labeled
  * network commands still ask, since Low IL does not block the network;
    Access denied and MSYS2's 0xc0000142 offer a rerun outside the sandbox
  * /sandbox lists labeled folders, /sandbox reset-labels restores them

TUI
  * raster console fonts are switched to Consolas / NSimSun while running
  * the home logo falls back to text when the console font lacks U+2580
  * mouse drag copy goes to the Windows clipboard

Distribution
  * scripts/install_windows.ps1 installs a Gitea release into
    %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\cst-agent and adds it to the user PATH;
    cst-agent-update.cmd reruns it; scripts/release_windows.sh uploads the
    zip with the token taken from the environment
  * scripts/run_windows.bat is gone; docs/README-windows.md is rewritten

Tests
  * new test_lowil, test_win_utf8 and test_os_dir; tests made portable
    (cst_test_util.h)
  * scripts/win_test.sh and scripts/winvm/ run the suite on English and
    Chinese Windows Server VMs as Administrator, a standard user and a
    Chinese user name: 29/29 on all six

Tools
- Table-driven tool registry with permission classes and default/minimal
  profiles; new tools: edit_file, list_dir, glob, grep, delete_file,
  move_file, todo_write, web_fetch, ask_user (plus read_file paging).
- Built-in Myers diff; write tools return unified diffs.
- Persistent permission rules (.agent/permissions.json), per-turn undo
  snapshots (.agent/undo), AGENTS.md project notes, auto-compact at 80%
  of the model context, cancellable run_shell with process-group kill.

TUI
- Table-driven slash commands: /provider /key /effort /status /tools
  /permissions /yolo /undo /retry /diff /export /copy /rename /delete
  /init /max-steps /todo, with / and @ completion.
- Permission modal with diff and prefix rules, ask_user modal, todo
  panel, header with model/effort/context, bracketed paste, line editing,
  wide-char cursor, NO_COLOR and ASCII fallback; Esc never quits.

Startup and configuration
- API keys are entered in the TUI (hidden) and saved per provider in
  <config>/credentials (0600); env variables are only a fallback.
- Last provider, per-provider model and reasoning effort are remembered
  in <config>/settings.json; --effort/-e and /effort send
  reasoning_effort (low|medium|high|max) to models that accept it.
- DeepSeek preset uses deepseek-flash / deepseek-v4-pro.
- Session flags --new/--continue/--resume/--list-sessions, --yolo,
  --confirm.

Compatibility and tests
- ncurses detection, macOS/Homebrew support, make install, XDG config
  dir, POSIX cleanups; Gitea CI (gcc/clang/asan/musl/macOS).
- Unit tests for diff, fs tools, registry, undo/perms and config;
  e2e fixtures multi_file_refactor and ask_or_todo; vendored cJSON.
