security: gate provider payload logging behind DIDACTYL_CONTEXT_DEBUG

The log_provider_payload_local() calls in perform_http_request() were
unconditional, writing full LLM conversation transcripts (system prompts,
user messages, tool calls, responses) to context.logs/ on every LLM call
regardless of the DIDACTYL_CONTEXT_DEBUG setting. This caused 326
transcript files containing Nostr keys, relay URLs, and DM contents to
be committed and pushed.

Now the logging only runs when DIDACTYL_CONTEXT_DEBUG is set to 'init'
or 'full' (matching the documented behavior in docs/CONTEXT.md). When
unset or 'off', no transcripts are written to disk.

Skills are portable instruction sets (published as Nostr events) that define how an AI agent should behave in a specific context. Think of them like plugins for agent behavior — anyone can create one, anyone can adopt one, and they're shared openly on Nostr itself.\n\nAnd triggers? Triggers are skills that run automatically in response to Nostr events. Instead of waiting for a human command, a triggered skill watches for specific event kinds (like incoming DMs, mentions, or new notes) and executes logic when conditions are met.\n\nNow here's where it gets interesting for spam: imagine a trigger skill that watches your relay's incoming events and evaluates them against configurable spam heuristics — things like note frequency, content similarity, NIP-05 verification status, follower graph analysis, or even LLM-based content scoring. The skill could then automatically flag, mute, or report spam accounts, all running autonomously on your behalf.\n\nThe beauty of this approach is that it's decentralized and opt-in. No central authority decides what's spam. You adopt the moderation skills that match your preferences. Don't like overly aggressive filtering? Swap in a different skill. Want to share your finely-tuned spam filter with others? Publish it as a skill event and let them adopt it.\n\nThis is moderation that respects Nostr's ethos: sovereign, composable, and censorship-resistant.","created_at":1772978225,"id":"161baf1cca9172b94dfd802eb1c81dfb3df49cc407a3e1a3b019f65b038fc905","kind":1,"pubkey":"52a3e82f7b3743852fbe804cfcbf4db3448115887895247c001f2b50e790acb8","sig":"fed29f7c9a46469c5a91b9fb52a1f7c8a038781a165f04183aaa22886204395cfae629ee3296b396fcc9d89bc6f3dcf5c9f99022176834a5665a599b57daac7e","tags":[]}]

Skills are portable instruction sets (published as Nostr events) that define how an AI agent should behave in a specific context. Think of them like plugins for agent behavior — anyone can create one, anyone can adopt one, and they're shared openly on Nostr itself.\n\nAnd triggers? Triggers are skills that run automatically in response to Nostr events. Instead of waiting for a human command, a triggered skill watches for specific event kinds (like incoming DMs, mentions, or new notes) and executes logic when conditions are met.\n\nNow here's where it gets interesting for spam: imagine a trigger skill that watches your relay's incoming events and evaluates them against configurable spam heuristics — things like note frequency, content similarity, NIP-05 verification status, follower graph analysis, or even LLM-based content scoring. The skill could then automatically flag, mute, or report spam accounts, all running autonomously on your behalf.\n\nThe beauty of this approach is that it's decentralized and opt-in. No central authority decides what's spam. You adopt the moderation skills that match your preferences. Don't like overly aggressive filtering? Swap in a different skill. Want to share your finely-tuned spam filter with others? Publish it as a skill event and let them adopt it.\n\nThis is moderation that respects Nostr's ethos: sovereign, composable, and censorship-resistant.","created_at":1772978225,"id":"161baf1cca9172b94dfd802eb1c81dfb3df49cc407a3e1a3b019f65b038fc905","kind":1,"pubkey":"52a3e82f7b3743852fbe804cfcbf4db3448115887895247c001f2b50e790acb8","sig":"fed29f7c9a46469c5a91b9fb52a1f7c8a038781a165f04183aaa22886204395cfae629ee3296b396fcc9d89bc6f3dcf5c9f99022176834a5665a599b57daac7e","tags":[]}]

+Didactyl - sovereign Nostr agent
+
+Usage:
+  ./didactyl [options]
+
+Options:
+  -h, --help
+      Show this help text and exit.
+  -v, --version
+      Show version and exit.
+  --config <path>
+      Path to config/genesis JSONC file (default: ./genesis.jsonc).
+      If file is missing, startup falls back to minimal nsec-only mode.
+  --nsec <nsec_or_hex>
+      Private key as nsec1... or 64-char hex; overrides DIDACTYL_NSEC.
+  --admin <npub_or_hex>
+      Administrator pubkey override; accepts npub1... or 64-char hex.
+  --api-port <port>
+      Enable HTTP API and bind to this port (1-65535).
+  --api-bind <addr>
+      Enable HTTP API and bind address (example: 127.0.0.1).
+  --debug <0-5>
+      Log level (0=fatal, 1=error, 2=warn, 3=info, 4=debug, 5=trace).
+  --signer <mode>
+      Signer provider: local | nsigner_unix | nsigner_tcp.
+      Overrides signer.mode in config and DIDACTYL_SIGNER.
+      In nsigner_* modes --nsec/DIDACTYL_NSEC are not required.
+  --signer-socket <name>
+      Abstract socket name for nsigner_unix (without leading @).
+  --signer-role <role>
+      n_signer role selector (default: main).
+  --signer-timeout <ms>
+      Per-call signer timeout in milliseconds (default: 15000).
+  --signer-tcp <host:port>
+      Shorthand for --signer nsigner_tcp with host/port parsed.
+  --dump-schemas
+      Print tool schemas JSON and exit.
+  --test-tool <name> <args_json>
+      Execute one tool call locally and print JSON result, then exit.
+
+Environment:
+  DIDACTYL_NSEC
+      Fallback private key when --nsec is not provided (local mode only).
+  DIDACTYL_SIGNER
+      Fallback signer mode when --signer is not provided.
+
+Examples:
+  1) Genesis-based startup
+     ./didactyl --config genesis.jsonc
+
+  2) nsec-only startup (no config file)
+     ./didactyl --nsec nsec1...
+
+  3) nsec via environment variable
+     DIDACTYL_NSEC=nsec1... ./didactyl
+
+  4) Override API bind/port
+     ./didactyl --config genesis.jsonc --api-bind 127.0.0.1 --api-port 8484
+
+  5) Sign with a running n_signer (separate the nsec from the agent)
+     ./didactyl --signer nsigner_unix --signer-socket nsigner_hairy_dog --admin npub1...
+
+  6) n_signer via TCP
+     ./didactyl --signer-tcp 127.0.0.1:7777 --admin npub1...
+
+  7) Dump tool schemas
+     ./didactyl --dump-schemas
+
+  8) Test a tool invocation
+     ./didactyl --test-tool config_recall '{"config_name":"llm_config"}'

+- `context.logs/<timestamp>_t001.md`, `_t002.md`, ... — turn snapshots
+
+### Snapshot Formats
+
+Initial snapshots (`*_init.md`) are the assembled markdown context document (with heading-bump effects). They reflect authored skill markdown before runtime message-role packaging:
+
+```markdown
+# Didactyl Agent
+
+## Anvil Agent
+...
+```
+
+Turn snapshots (`*_tNNN.md`) are human-readable markdown renderings of the OpenAI-compatible `messages` array used for that loop turn:
+
+```markdown
+**Message 1 (system)**
+
+- **role**: system
+- **content**: # Didactyl Agent
+
+## Anvil Agent
+...
+
+---
+
+**Message 2 (assistant)**

+- **role**: tool
+- **tool_call_id**: toolu_...
+- **content**:
+  - **success**: true

+```
+
+Notes:
+
+- Internal transport fields such as `_ts` are omitted from snapshots.
+- Tool result payloads are rendered as markdown structures when they contain JSON.

+# Signer Providers
+
+Didactyl can sign Nostr events and perform NIP-04/NIP-44 encryption either with
+an in-process private key (`local`) or by delegating to a running
+[`n_signer`](../n_signer) process over one of five transports. In any
+`nsigner_*` mode the agent process holds **no nsec** — the private key lives
+only in `n_signer`'s locked memory, and the agent pubkey is discovered at
+startup via `nostr_signer_get_public_key()`.
+
+## Modes
+
+| Mode | Transport | Holds nsec in agent? | Persistable to genesis? | Installable as systemd? |
+|------|-----------|----------------------|-------------------------|-------------------------|
+| `local` | in-process | yes | yes | yes |
+| `nsigner_unix` | AF_UNIX abstract socket | no | yes | yes |
+| `nsigner_tcp` | TCP `host:port` | no | yes | yes |
+| `nsigner_serial` | USB CDC-ACM serial | no | yes | yes |
+| `nsigner_fds` | pre-connected fd pair | no | **no** (runtime-only) | **no** |
+| `nsigner_qrexec` | Qubes qrexec (cross-qube) | no | yes | yes |
+
+### `local`
+Default, backward-compatible. The 32-byte private key is derived from
+`keys.nsec` and held in `cfg.keys.private_key`. Use this when you accept the
+nsec living in the agent process.
+
+### `nsigner_unix`
+Delegates to `n_signer` over an abstract namespace Unix socket
+(`@<socket_name>`). If `socket_name` is empty, the agent auto-discovers running
+`n_signer` sockets via `nsigner_transport_list_unix()`. Best for same-host
+deployments where `n_signer` runs in an attended terminal.
+
+### `nsigner_tcp`
+Delegates to `n_signer` over TCP. Requires `auth_privkey_hex` (64-char hex) for
+the kind-27235 auth envelope that `n_signer` enforces on TCP listeners. Use for
+cross-host or FIPS-mode deployments.
+
+### `nsigner_serial`
+Delegates to `n_signer` over a USB CDC-ACM serial device (e.g. `/dev/ttyACM0`).
+The wizard auto-discovers `/dev/ttyACM*` devices via
+`nsigner_transport_list_serial()`. Use for air-gapped/hardware-token signing.
+
+### `nsigner_fds`
+Delegates to `n_signer` over a pre-connected file-descriptor pair
+(`read_fd`, `write_fd`). Intended for qrexec-style fd-passing deployments.
+**Cannot be persisted to genesis** (fds are runtime-only) and **cannot be
+installed as a systemd service** (fds cannot be embedded in `ExecStart`). Supply
+via `--signer-fds <read:write>` at boot.
+
+### `nsigner_qrexec`
+Delegates to `n_signer` running in **another Qubes OS qube** via qrexec. The
+agent spawns `qrexec-client-vm <target_qube> <service_name>` as a subprocess
+and pipes framed JSON-RPC through its stdin/stdout. No network; caller identity
+is hypervisor-vouched (`QREXEC_REMOTE_DOMAIN` → `qubes:<source-vm>` on the
+signer side). This is the recommended Qubes cross-qube signing path.
+
+Prerequisites (in the signer qube, e.g. `nostr_signer`):
+- `n_signer` running persistently: `nsigner --listen unix --socket-name nsigner --bridge-source-trusted`
+- The `qubes.NsignerRpc` qrexec service installed (see `n_signer/packaging/qubes/`)
+- dom0 qrexec policy allowing the agent qube to call the service
+
+The service name defaults to `qubes.NsignerRpc`; override with `--signer-service`
+or the `signer.service_name` config field.
+

+}
+```
+
+### CLI flags
+
+| Flag | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `--signer <mode>` | Select signer mode (overrides config/env). |
+| `--signer-socket <name>` | Abstract socket name for `nsigner_unix`. |
+| `--signer-role <role>` | `n_signer` role selector (default `main`). |
+| `--signer-timeout <ms>` | Per-call timeout (default `15000`). |
+| `--signer-tcp <host:port>` | Shorthand for `--signer nsigner_tcp` + host/port. |
+| `--signer-serial <device>` | Shorthand for `--signer nsigner_serial` + device. |
+| `--signer-fds <read:write>` | Shorthand for `--signer nsigner_fds` + fd pair. |
+| `--signer-qrexec <target_qube>` | Shorthand for `--signer nsigner_qrexec` + target qube. |
+| `--signer-service <name>` | qrexec service name (default `qubes.NsignerRpc`). |
+
+Precedence: CLI flag > `DIDACTYL_SIGNER` env var > genesis `signer.mode` >
+default (`local`).
+
+In any `nsigner_*` mode, `--nsec` / `DIDACTYL_NSEC` are not required.
+
+## Interactive setup wizard
+
+The wizard's **New agent → sign with a running n_signer** path and the
+**Existing agent** flow both present a transport picker:
+
+- `u` nix socket (auto-discovers `@nsigner*` abstract sockets)
+- `t` cp (prompts for `host:port` + optional auth privkey)
+- `s` erial (auto-discovers `/dev/ttyACM*`)
+- `f` d pair (prompts for `read_fd:write_fd` — advanced)
+- `e` xec qrexec (prompts for target qube + service name — Qubes cross-qube)
+
+After a transport is chosen, the wizard runs a connectivity check
+(`nostr_signer_get_public_key`) and populates the agent pubkey before
+continuing.
+
+The **Existing agent** flow additionally lets you recover an agent **without
+entering an nsec** — kind-30078 config recall/publish is routed through the
+signer verbs (`nostr_signer_nip44_decrypt` / `nostr_signer_nip44_encrypt`), so
+the nsec never enters the agent process during recovery.
+
+## Systemd install
+
+`install_system_service_with_dedicated_user()` embeds the signer flags in
+`ExecStart` for `nsigner_unix`, `nsigner_tcp`, `nsigner_serial`, and
+`nsigner_qrexec`.
+`nsigner_fds` is rejected with a clear message (fds are runtime-only and cannot
+be embedded in `ExecStart`); choose **boot now** or wire fd-passing yourself
+via a wrapper unit.
+
+## Security tradeoff
+
+`local` keeps the nsec in the agent process. If the agent is compromised, the
+nsec is exposed. Remote (`nsigner_*`) modes keep the nsec in `n_signer`'s
+mlock'd memory; a compromised agent can request signatures but cannot extract
+the raw key. The tradeoff is operational: `n_signer` must be running and
+reachable when the agent needs to sign.

+Didactyl - sovereign Nostr agent
+
+Usage:
+  ./didactyl [options]
+
+Options:
+  -h, --help
+      Show this help text and exit.
+  -v, --version
+      Show version and exit.
+  --config <path>
+      Path to config/genesis JSONC file (default: ./genesis.jsonc).
+      If file is missing, startup falls back to minimal nsec-only mode.
+  --nsec <nsec_or_hex>
+      Private key as nsec1... or 64-char hex; overrides DIDACTYL_NSEC.
+  --admin <npub_or_hex>
+      Administrator pubkey override; accepts npub1... or 64-char hex.
+  --api-port <port>
+      Enable HTTP API and bind to this port (1-65535).
+  --api-bind <addr>
+      Enable HTTP API and bind address (example: 127.0.0.1).
+  --debug <0-5>
+      Log level (0=fatal, 1=error, 2=warn, 3=info, 4=debug, 5=trace).
+  --signer <mode>
+      Signer provider: local | nsigner_unix | nsigner_tcp.
+      Overrides signer.mode in config and DIDACTYL_SIGNER.
+      In nsigner_* modes --nsec/DIDACTYL_NSEC are not required.
+  --signer-socket <name>
+      Abstract socket name for nsigner_unix (without leading @).
+  --signer-role <role>
+      n_signer role selector (default: main).
+  --signer-timeout <ms>
+      Per-call signer timeout in milliseconds (default: 15000).
+  --signer-tcp <host:port>
+      Shorthand for --signer nsigner_tcp with host/port parsed.
+  --dump-schemas
+      Print tool schemas JSON and exit.
+  --test-tool <name> <args_json>
+      Execute one tool call locally and print JSON result, then exit.
+
+Environment:
+  DIDACTYL_NSEC
+      Fallback private key when --nsec is not provided (local mode only).
+  DIDACTYL_SIGNER
+      Fallback signer mode when --signer is not provided.
+
+Examples:
+  1) Genesis-based startup
+     ./didactyl --config genesis.jsonc
+
+  2) nsec-only startup (no config file)
+     ./didactyl --nsec nsec1...
+
+  3) nsec via environment variable
+     DIDACTYL_NSEC=nsec1... ./didactyl
+
+  4) Override API bind/port
+     ./didactyl --config genesis.jsonc --api-bind 127.0.0.1 --api-port 8484
+
+  5) Sign with a running n_signer (separate the nsec from the agent)
+     ./didactyl --signer nsigner_unix --signer-socket nsigner_hairy_dog --admin npub1...
+
+  6) n_signer via TCP
+     ./didactyl --signer-tcp 127.0.0.1:7777 --admin npub1...
+
+  7) Dump tool schemas
+     ./didactyl --dump-schemas
+
+  8) Test a tool invocation
+     ./didactyl --test-tool config_recall '{"config_name":"llm_config"}'

+# Didactyl Automated Test Harness
+
+## Overview
+
+An automated testing system that starts a Didactyl agent locally (debug build), converses with it via the HTTP API, exercises all tools, monitors logs in real-time, handles agent crashes/restarts, and produces a structured test results report.
+
+**Language:** Python (stdlib only, no external dependencies)  
+**Location:** `tests/`  
+**Phase 1:** Scripted tests (no LLM driving the tester)  
+**Phase 2 (future):** LLM-driven test agent that generates prompts, evaluates responses, and adapts
+
+---
+

+
+## Design Decisions
+
+| Decision | Choice | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| Language | Python | Best subprocess/HTTP/threading support; already used in project |
+| Dependencies | stdlib only | No pip install needed; `urllib`, `subprocess`, `threading`, `json` |
+| Test framework | Standalone runner | Self-contained, no pytest dependency |
+| Relay strategy | Flexible genesis config | User provides their own test_genesis.jsonc |
+| LLM for agent | Real model | User provides API key in test genesis config |
+| Tool scope | All tools | Disposable test identity; full coverage |
+| Entry point | `tests/run_tests.py` | Single script to run everything |
+

+
+## Component Specifications
+
+### 1. agent_process.py — Process Manager
+
+Manages the didactyl subprocess lifecycle.
+
+```python
+class AgentProcess:
+    def __init__(self, binary_path, config_path, api_port=8484,
+                 api_bind="127.0.0.1", debug_level=5, log_file=None):
+        """Configure but don't start yet."""
+    
+    def start(self, timeout=30) -> bool:
+        """
+        Spawn didactyl as subprocess:
+          ./didactyl --config <config_path> --debug <level> 
+                     --api-port <port> --api-bind <bind>
+        
+        Set DIDACTYL_LOG_FILE env var to log_file path.
+        Wait for GET /api/status to return 200 (poll with timeout).
+        Returns True if agent started successfully.
+        """
+    
+    def stop(self, timeout=10) -> bool:
+        """
+        Send SIGTERM, wait for clean exit.
+        If still alive after timeout, send SIGKILL.
+        Returns True if stopped cleanly.
+        """
+    
+    def restart(self, timeout=30) -> bool:
+        """stop() then start()."""
+    
+    def is_alive(self) -> bool:
+        """Check process.poll() and optionally /api/status."""
+    
+    def pid(self) -> int | None:
+        """Return PID if running."""
+    
+    def return_code(self) -> int | None:
+        """Return exit code if stopped."""
+```
+
+Key details:
+- Uses `subprocess.Popen` with `stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE`
+- Captures stdout/stderr for crash diagnostics
+- The health check polls `GET /api/status` every 500ms until success or timeout
+- Sets `DIDACTYL_LOG_FILE` to a test-run-specific path like `tests/results/<timestamp>/agent_debug.log`
+
+### 2. didactyl_client.py — HTTP API Client
+
+Thin wrapper around the Didactyl HTTP API using only `urllib`.
+
+```python
+class DidactylClient:
+    def __init__(self, base_url="https://127.0.0.1:8484", timeout=60,
+                 verify_tls=False):
+        """Configure base URL and default timeout."""
+    
+    def status(self) -> dict:
+        """GET /api/status"""
+    
+    def prompt(self, message: str, max_turns: int = 4,
+               model: str = None) -> dict:
+        """POST /api/prompt/agent — full agent context conversation"""
+    
+    def prompt_raw(self, messages: list, max_turns: int = 4,
+                   model: str = None) -> dict:
+        """POST /api/prompt/run — raw messages, no auto-context"""
+    
+    def prompt_simple(self, system: str, user: str,
+                      model: str = None) -> dict:
+        """POST /api/prompt/run-simple — no tools"""
+    
+    def context_current(self) -> dict:
+        """GET /api/context/current"""
+    
+    def context_parts(self) -> dict:
+        """GET /api/context/parts"""
+    
+    def fire_webhook(self, d_tag: str, payload: dict = None) -> dict:
+        """POST /api/trigger/<d_tag>"""
+```
+
+Key details:
+- All methods return parsed JSON dict
+- Raises `TimeoutError` if response exceeds timeout
+- Raises `ConnectionError` if agent is unreachable
+- Raises `APIError(status_code, body)` for non-2xx responses
+- Uses `ssl._create_unverified_context()` for local TLS (same as chat CLI)
+
+### 3. log_watcher.py — Real-time Log Monitor
+
+Background thread that tails the agent's debug log file.
+
+```python
+class LogWatcher:
+    def __init__(self, log_path: str):
+        """Configure log file path."""
+    
+    def start(self):
+        """
+        Start background thread.
+        Open file, seek to end, poll for new lines.
+        Store all lines in memory with timestamps.
+        """
+    
+    def stop(self):
+        """Stop background thread."""
+    
+    def set_marker(self, name: str):
+        """Record current line count as a named marker."""
+    
+    def get_lines_since(self, marker: str) -> list[str]:
+        """Return all lines captured since the named marker."""
+    
+    def get_all_lines(self) -> list[str]:
+        """Return all captured lines."""
+    
+    def search(self, pattern: str, since_marker: str = None) -> list[str]:
+        """Regex search through captured lines."""
+    
+    def has_errors(self, since_marker: str = None) -> bool:
+        """Check for [ERROR] lines since marker."""
+    
+    def has_warnings(self, since_marker: str = None) -> bool:
+        """Check for [WARN] lines since marker."""
+    
+    def error_lines(self, since_marker: str = None) -> list[str]:
+        """Return all ERROR lines since marker."""
+```
+
+Key details:
+- Uses `threading.Thread(daemon=True)` for background polling
+- Polls file every 100ms for new content
+- Handles file rotation (agent restart creates new file)
+- Thread-safe access to captured lines via `threading.Lock`
+
+### 4. test_runner.py — Orchestrator
+
+```python
+class TestResult:
+    name: str
+    suite: str
+    status: str  # "pass", "fail", "error", "skip", "timeout"
+    message: str
+    duration_seconds: float
+    agent_errors: list[str]  # ERROR lines from log during this test
+    details: dict  # arbitrary test-specific data
+
+class TestCase:
+    name: str
+    description: str
+    requires_restart: bool = False
+    
+    def run(self, client: DidactylClient, log: LogWatcher) -> TestResult:
+        """Execute the test and return result."""
+
+class TestRunner:
+    def __init__(self, agent: AgentProcess, client: DidactylClient,
+                 log: LogWatcher):
+        """Configure with harness components."""
+    
+    def discover_suites(self, suites_dir: str) -> list:
+        """Import all test_*.py modules from suites directory."""
+    
+    def run_all(self, suites: list = None) -> list[TestResult]:
+        """
+        For each suite:
+          1. If test requires restart, restart agent
+          2. Set log marker for this test
+          3. Run test with timeout wrapper
+          4. Capture result + any agent errors from log
+          5. If agent crashed, restart and record error
+          6. Collect all results
+        Return list of TestResult.
+        """
+    
+    def run_suite(self, suite_name: str) -> list[TestResult]:
+        """Run a single named suite."""
+```
+
+Key details:
+- Each test gets a fresh log marker so errors can be correlated
+- If `client.prompt()` raises `TimeoutError`, the test is marked "timeout" and the agent is restarted
+- If `agent.is_alive()` returns False mid-suite, the agent is restarted and remaining tests continue
+- Supports filtering by suite name or test name via CLI args
+
+### 5. reporter.py — Results Output
+
+```python
+class Reporter:
+    def __init__(self, results: list[TestResult], output_dir: str):
+        """Configure with results and output directory."""
+    
+    def print_summary(self):
+        """Print pass/fail/error/skip/timeout counts to stdout."""
+    
+    def print_details(self):
+        """Print each test result with details."""
+    
+    def write_json(self, path: str):
+        """Write full results as JSON for programmatic consumption."""
+    
+    def write_text(self, path: str):
+        """Write human-readable report."""
+```
+
+Output format example:
+```

+
+## Future: Phase 2 — LLM-Driven Testing
+
+The architecture supports this naturally. In Phase 2:
+
+- Add an `LLMTestAgent` class that wraps an LLM API call
+- The LLM receives: tool documentation, test objectives, previous results
+- It generates test prompts, evaluates responses, decides next actions
+- The `TestCase.run()` method delegates to the LLM agent instead of scripted logic
+- The LLM can also analyze agent logs for anomalies
+- Potentially: the LLM can generate code patches for bugs it finds
+
+No architectural changes needed — just a new test suite type that uses LLM reasoning instead of scripted assertions.

+# Cron Trigger Pipeline: How It Works and How to Make It Robust
+
+## Current Architecture: Skill Events → Trigger Registration
+
+The pipeline has **two paths** for getting a cron trigger loaded, plus a **polling loop** that actually fires them.
+
+### Path 1: Bulk load at startup (EOSE-driven)
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    participant Main as main.c startup
+    participant NH as nostr_handler
+    participant Relays as Nostr Relays

+    Main->>Main: nostr_handler_wait_for_self_skill_eose returns 0
+    Main->>Main: Startup step 14 passes
+    Main->>Main: Enter main poll loop
+```
+
+### Path 2: Live skill event (post-startup)
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    participant Relays as Nostr Relays
+    participant NH as nostr_handler
+    participant TM as trigger_manager
+
+    Note over NH: Subscription stays open after EOSE

+    NH->>TM: trigger_manager_add or update
+    NH->>NH: self_skill_cache_upsert_event_locked
+```
+
+### Path 3: Cron polling in main loop
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    participant Main as main loop
+    participant TM as trigger_manager
+    participant Agent as agent.c
+
+    loop Every iteration
+        Main->>TM: trigger_manager_poll

+        TM->>TM: For each trigger where type==CRON:<br/>1. Validate cron_expr<br/>2. Check cron_matches_now<br/>3. Check last_cron_fire dedup - 50s guard
+        TM->>Agent: execute_llm_action with synthetic cron event
+    end
+```
+
+---
+
+## The Six Failure Points
+
+I have identified six places where a cron trigger can silently fail to load or fire. They are ordered from most likely to least likely given the logs from laantungir.net.
+
+### 1. EOSE timeout kills startup entirely
+
+**Where:** [`main.c:1494–1515`](src/main.c:1494)
+
+The agent waits 15 seconds for self-skill EOSE. If relays are slow or the connection is flaky, this times out and **the entire agent process exits**:
+
+```c
+const int self_skill_eose_timeout_ms = 15000;
+if (nostr_handler_wait_for_self_skill_eose(self_skill_eose_timeout_ms) != 0) {
+    // ... prints error, cleans up, return 1
+}
+```
+
+From [`debug.log`](debug.log) line 670:
+```
+[2026-04-06 16:16:49] [ERROR] startup checklist [14] Subscribe self-skill cache: failed
+    (self-skill EOSE not received within timeout)
+```
+
+**Impact:** If the agent crashes at startup, no triggers load at all. If systemd restarts it and it crashes again, you get a restart loop with zero cron execution.
+
+### 2. Adoption check gates live trigger registration
+
+**Where:** [`nostr_handler.c:1462`](src/nostr_handler.c:1462)
+
+When a skill event arrives live via [`on_self_skill_event()`](src/nostr_handler.c:2428), it calls [`register_trigger_from_self_skill_event()`](src/nostr_handler.c:1418) which checks:
+
+```c
+if (!self_skill_is_adopted_local(kind_val, pubkey->valuestring, d_tag)) {
+    DEBUG_INFO("live self-skill trigger ignored (not adopted) d_tag=%s", d_tag);
+    return;
+}
+```
+
+[`self_skill_is_adopted_local()`](src/nostr_handler.c:1366) scans `g_self_skill_events` for a kind 10123 event with an `["a", "31123:<pubkey>:<d_tag>"]` tag. If the adoption event hasn't arrived yet (race condition — skill event arrives before adoption event), the trigger is silently skipped.
+
+**Critically:** The bulk load path in [`trigger_manager_load_from_skills()`](src/trigger_manager.c:818) does **NOT** check adoption at all — it loads every skill with trigger+filter tags. So the adoption gate only affects the live path.
+
+### 3. Bulk load is one-shot with `loaded_once` guard
+
+**Where:** [`main.c:42`](src/main.c:42)
+
+```c
+if (ctx->loaded_once) {
+    DEBUG_TRACE("deferred trigger load skipped (already loaded once)");
+    return;
+}
+```
+
+The EOSE callback fires once, calls [`trigger_manager_load_from_skills()`](src/trigger_manager.c:818), sets `loaded_once = 1`, and never runs again. If a skill event arrives **after** EOSE but **before** the live path processes it, it falls into a gap:
+- The bulk load already ran and won't run again
+- The live [`register_trigger_from_self_skill_event()`](src/nostr_handler.c:1418) may reject it due to the adoption check
+
+### 4. Cron expression validation rejects silently at add time
+
+**Where:** [`trigger_manager.c:1106–1112`](src/trigger_manager.c:1106)
+
+```c
+if (t->trigger_type == TRIGGER_TYPE_CRON) {
+    if (!cron_expr_is_valid(filter_json, normalized_cron, sizeof(normalized_cron))) {
+        DEBUG_WARN("trigger add rejected: invalid cron expression d_tag=%s expr=%s", ...);
+        memset(t, 0, sizeof(*t));
+        return -1;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+This does log a warning, but the caller in [`trigger_manager_load_from_skills()`](src/trigger_manager.c:896) just silently skips to the next skill. The `considered` count increments but `loaded` does not — the only evidence is in the log line `trigger manager loaded X trigger(s) from self skills (considered=Y)` where X < Y.
+
+The existing plan in [`fix_cron_triggers_not_firing.md`](plans/fix_cron_triggers_not_firing.md) documents that a bare `*` was being used instead of `* * * * *`, and that shorthand expansion was added. This has been fixed.
+
+### 5. Poll throttle delays first evaluation by up to 30 seconds
+
+**Where:** [`trigger_manager.c:1395`](src/trigger_manager.c:1395)
+
+```c
+if (mgr->last_poll_at > 0 && (now - mgr->last_poll_at) < 30) {
+    return 0;
+}
+```
+
+After init, `last_poll_at` starts at 0 (fixed from the original bug where it was `time(NULL)`), so the first poll runs immediately. But subsequent polls are throttled to every 30 seconds. For a daily cron this is fine, but it means the cron match window is checked at most twice per minute.
+
+### 6. Cron dedup guard can skip legitimate fires
+
+**Where:** [`trigger_manager.c:1422`](src/trigger_manager.c:1422)
+
+```c
+if (t->last_cron_fire > 0 && (now - t->last_cron_fire) < 50) {
+    continue;
+}
+```
+
+With a 30-second poll interval and a 50-second dedup window, a cron that matches at minute X will fire once and then be suppressed for the next poll. This is correct behavior for preventing double-fires within the same minute. But if the system clock jumps or NTP adjusts, this could cause unexpected skips.
+
+---
+
+## Robustness Suggestions
+
+### A. Retry EOSE with backoff instead of hard abort
+
+**Current:** EOSE timeout → process exit.
+**Proposed:** Retry 2–3 times with increasing timeout (15s, 30s, 60s). If all retries fail, start the agent in degraded mode with only startup-config triggers active, and schedule a background re-attempt.
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    SUB[Subscribe self-skills] --> WAIT{Wait for EOSE}
+    WAIT -->|Received| LOAD[Load triggers from skills]
+    WAIT -->|Timeout 15s| RETRY1{Retry 1 - 30s timeout}
+    RETRY1 -->|Received| LOAD
+    RETRY1 -->|Timeout| RETRY2{Retry 2 - 60s timeout}
+    RETRY2 -->|Received| LOAD
+    RETRY2 -->|Timeout| DEGRADED[Start in degraded mode<br/>startup triggers only<br/>schedule background retry]
+    LOAD --> READY[Agent READY]
+    DEGRADED --> READY
+```
+
+### B. Remove adoption gate from live trigger registration
+
+The bulk load path doesn't check adoption. The live path does. This inconsistency means a skill created via `skill_create` with `auto_adopt=true` might not register its trigger if the adoption event arrives on a different relay or with different timing.
+
+**Proposed:** Either:
+1. Remove the adoption check from [`register_trigger_from_self_skill_event()`](src/nostr_handler.c:1462) to match the bulk path, OR
+2. Add the adoption check to the bulk path too for consistency, but with a fallback: if adoption events haven't loaded yet, defer the check.
+
+Option 1 is simpler and more robust. The agent already only subscribes to its own pubkey's events, so all skills in the cache are self-authored.
+
+### C. Allow re-running bulk trigger load
+
+Remove the `loaded_once` guard or replace it with a debounced re-load. When new skill events arrive after EOSE, schedule a re-scan of all cached skills after a short delay (e.g., 5 seconds). This closes the gap between EOSE and late-arriving events.
+
+### D. Add a periodic trigger reconciliation
+
+Every N minutes (e.g., 5), compare the set of cached skills that have trigger+filter tags against the active trigger list. Register any missing triggers. This is a safety net that catches any trigger that was missed during startup.
+
+```c
+// In trigger_manager_poll, after cron evaluation:
+if (now - mgr->last_reconcile_at > 300) {
+    trigger_manager_load_from_skills(mgr);  // idempotent via update path
+    mgr->last_reconcile_at = now;
+}
+```
+
+### E. Log trigger registration summary at startup
+
+After the deferred trigger load, log not just the count but also which trigger types were loaded:
+
+```
+trigger manager loaded 3 trigger(s): dm=2 cron=1 webhook=0 chain=0 nostr-sub=0
+```
+
+This makes it immediately obvious from the log whether a cron trigger was picked up.
+
+### F. Add an HTTP API endpoint for trigger status
+
+Expose `/api/triggers` that returns the same JSON as the `trigger_list` tool. This allows external monitoring (e.g., a health check script) to verify that expected cron triggers are loaded without going through the LLM.
+
+---
+
+## Summary of What Happened on laantungir.net
+
+Based on the logs:
+
+1. The agent started successfully multiple times (startup step 14 passed with `skills=3 adoptions=1` or similar).
+2. The deferred trigger load status shows **only dm-type triggers** were loaded — no cron triggers appear in any log entry.
+3. On 2026-04-06, the agent failed at startup step 14 with EOSE timeout, meaning it never even got to trigger loading.
+4. There is **zero** evidence of `cron trigger matched` or `cron trigger skipped` in any log file, confirming the cron trigger was never in the active trigger set.
+
+The most likely explanation: the cron skill event exists on relays but either:
+- It was missing the `["trigger", "cron"]` and/or `["filter", "<expr>"]` tags when it was published
+- It was not adopted (no kind 10123 event referencing it) and arrived via the live path where adoption is checked
+- The cron expression was invalid and was silently rejected at add time
+- The EOSE timeout prevented the agent from ever reaching the trigger loading phase
+
+Running `trigger_list` on the live server will definitively answer which of these is the case.

+# DM History Context Cleanup, Skill Rename & Startup Events Unification
+
+## Problems
+
+### 1. DM History as JSON in System Prompt
+The `{{nostr_dm_history}}` template variable resolves to a raw JSON array string pasted into the system prompt. The LLM receives conversation history as JSON-within-text, wasting tokens and forcing it to parse structured data embedded in prose.
+
+### 2. Misleading Skill Name
+The skill `default_admin_dm` is really an identity and rules skill. Rename to `identity_and_rules`.
+
+### 3. `default_skill` Config Section Is Redundant
+The `default_skill` section in genesis.jsonc is a special-case config path that converts a skill into a startup event and auto-adopts it. This is unnecessary — skills should just be startup events like everything else. The program should treat all startup events equally and halt if any fail to publish.
+
+## Solution
+
+Three coordinated changes:
+
+### Part A: DM History Text Format
+Add a `format` parameter to the `nostr_dm_history` tool. Create a separate `dm_history` skill.
+
+### Part B: Skill Rename
+Rename `default_admin_dm` → `identity_and_rules` everywhere.
+
+### Part C: Eliminate `default_skill` Config Section
+Move skills into `startup_events`. Auto-adopt kind 31123/31124 startup events. Make startup event publishing mandatory (halt on failure).
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Steps
+
+### Part A: DM History Text Format
+
+#### A1. Add `format` parameter to `execute_nostr_dm_history()`
+
+**File:** `src/tools/tool_agent.c` — line 265
+
+Add a `format` parameter: `"json"` (default, current behavior) or `"text"`.
+
+When `format` is `"text"`, after the filtering loop (lines 320-360), iterate the filtered array and build plain text:
+
+```
+User: Good morning
+Assistant: Good morning! ☀️ How can I help you today?
+User: What is the capital of England?
+Assistant: London! 🇬🇧
+```
+
+Existing `include_current=false` default already deduplicates the current live message (line 339).
+
+#### A2. Add `format` to the tool schema
+
+**File:** `src/tools/tools_schema.c` — around line 1493
+
+Add `format` property with description. Update tool description to mention the parameter.
+
+---
+
+### Part B: Skill Rename
+
+#### B1. Update `src/default_events.h`
+
+- `DIDACTYL_DEFAULT_SKILL_D_TAG`: `"default_admin_dm"` → `"identity_and_rules"`
+- `DIDACTYL_DEFAULT_SKILL_TAGS_JSON`: update d-tag and description
+- `DIDACTYL_DEFAULT_SKILL_TEMPLATE`: keep as-is (already clean, no `{{nostr_dm_history}}`)
+
+#### B2. Update tool description examples in `src/tools/tools_schema.c`
+
+- Line 854: `skill_get` example
+- Line 883: `skill_view` example
+- Line 911: `skill_set` example
+
+#### B3. Update `docs/GENESIS.md`
+
+- Line 33 and 124: `default_admin_dm` → `identity_and_rules`
+
+---
+
+### Part C: Eliminate `default_skill` Config Section
+
+#### C1. Auto-adopt kind 31123/31124 startup events
+
+**File:** `src/config.c`
+
+Replace `config_ensure_default_skill_startup_events()` with a new function `config_ensure_startup_skill_adoption()` that:
+
+1. Scans all startup events for kind 31123 and 31124
+2. For each skill found, extracts its `d_tag` from tags
+3. Builds the skill address (`kind:pubkey:d_tag`)
+4. Ensures a kind 10123 adoption list startup event exists with all skill addresses
+5. If no 10123 event exists, creates one
+
+This replaces the single-skill logic with a generic "adopt all startup skills" approach.
+
+#### C2. Remove `default_skill` config parsing
+
+**File:** `src/config.c`
+
+- Remove `parse_default_skill_config()` function (lines 733-816)
+- Remove the call at line 1369
+- Keep backward compatibility: if `default_skill` section exists in genesis.jsonc, convert it to a startup event during parsing (migration path) — OR just remove support and let users update their genesis.jsonc
+
+#### C3. Remove `default_skill_config_t` from config struct
+
+**File:** `src/config.h`
+
+- Remove `default_skill_config_t` typedef (lines 67-72)
+- Remove `default_skill` field from `didactyl_config_t` (line 134)
+
+#### C4. Update `src/main.c`
+
+- Line 1060: Replace `config_ensure_default_skill_startup_events()` call with `config_ensure_startup_skill_adoption()`
+
+#### C5. Make startup event publishing mandatory
+
+**File:** `src/nostr_handler.c`
+
+In the startup publish flow (around line 3150), after all relays have been tried:
+- Check that each startup event was published to at least one relay
+- If any event failed on all relays, log an error and return failure
+- The caller in `main.c` should halt on this failure
+
+#### C6. Update setup wizard
+
+**File:** `src/setup_wizard.c`
+
+- `configure_default_skill_for_agent()` (line 498): Instead of populating `cfg->default_skill`, append the identity skill as a startup event directly
+- Add the `dm_history` skill as a second startup event
+- The auto-adoption logic (C1) handles the adoption list
+
+#### C7. Update `default_events.h`
+
+Add the `dm_history` skill template:
+
+```c
+#define DIDACTYL_DEFAULT_DM_HISTORY_SKILL_D_TAG "dm_history"
+
+static const char* DIDACTYL_DEFAULT_DM_HISTORY_SKILL_TEMPLATE =
+    "## Recent Conversation\n\n"
+    "{{nostr_dm_history({\"format\":\"text\",\"limit\":12})}}";
+```
+
+---
+
+### Part D: Genesis Config Updates
+
+#### D1. Update `genesis.jsonc.example`
+
+Remove `default_skill` section. Add skills as startup events:
+
+```jsonc

+#### D2. Update live `genesis.jsonc`
+
+Same changes as D1 but for the actual deployment config.

+## Files Changed
+
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `src/tools/tool_agent.c` | Add `format` parameter to `execute_nostr_dm_history()` |
+| `src/tools/tools_schema.c` | Add `format` to schema; update example d-tags |
+| `src/default_events.h` | Rename d-tag; add `dm_history` skill template |
+| `src/config.h` | Remove `default_skill_config_t` and field |
+| `src/config.c` | Remove `parse_default_skill_config()`; replace `config_ensure_default_skill_startup_events()` with `config_ensure_startup_skill_adoption()` |
+| `src/main.c` | Update call to new adoption function |
+| `src/nostr_handler.c` | Make startup event publishing mandatory (halt on total failure) |
+| `src/setup_wizard.c` | Put skills in startup_events; add dm_history |
+| `genesis.jsonc.example` | Remove `default_skill`; add skills as startup events |
+| `genesis.jsonc` | Same as example |
+| `docs/GENESIS.md` | Update references |
+
+## Migration Note
+
+For backward compatibility, consider keeping `parse_default_skill_config()` as a migration shim that converts `default_skill` into a startup event with a deprecation warning. This way existing genesis.jsonc files with `default_skill` still work but users are prompted to update.

+# Example Context Window — DM from Admin
+
+This file shows what the assembled context window would look like under the
+proposed markdown format. This is a concrete example based on the "Simon" agent
+configuration seen in the actual context.log.md.
+
+---
+
+## Scenario
+
+- Admin sends a DM: "Hey Simon, who mentioned me on Nostr today?"
+- Triggered skills (adoption list order): `personality`, `chat`
+- The `personality` skill includes `{{identity}}` (layer 2)
+- The `chat` skill has tools enabled
+
+---
+
+## The Assembled Context Document
+
+Below is the **complete markdown document** the runtime assembles before
+splitting into API messages. Everything between the `system:` and `user:`
+markers goes into the system message. Everything after `user:` goes into the
+user message.
+
+---
+
+```markdown
+system:
+# Simon — Didactyl Agent
+
+A sovereign AI agent living on Nostr, named after Simón Bolívar.
+
+- **npub**: `npub1kfc89dlu9m05tvfnry4l3jjacqpp930sz4kaghcmg9vrrrceg44qf80xae`
+- **NIP-05**: simon@nostr
+
+> Mission: Keep the computers I administer free from foreign powers and surveillance.
+> Not your keys, not your agent.
+
+## Personality
+
+You speak concisely and directly.
+You favor technical precision.
+You use dry humor sparingly.
+
+## Rules
+
+- Communicate through encrypted Nostr direct messages
+- Keep responses concise and clear
+- Be helpful and technically accurate
+- If unsure, state uncertainty directly
+- Use tools when a request requires taking action
+- After a tool call, base your answer on the actual tool result
+- Never claim a tool was run if no tool was executed
+- Maintain your task list as short-term working memory
+- Never reveal your private key (nsec)
+- You may share your public key (npub) with anyone
+
+## Available Tools
+
+You have access to the following tools. Use them when a request requires taking action.
+
+- `nostr_query` — Query Nostr relays for events matching a filter
+- `nostr_dm` — Send an encrypted direct message
+- `nostr_post` — Publish a Nostr event
+- `memory_read` — Read from persistent agent memory
+- `memory_write` — Write to persistent agent memory
+
+## Conversation History
+
+- **You**: Didactyl has started up and is online at 2026-03-23 09:22:48 (version v0.2.12, connected relays: 4/4).
+- **Admin**: What is the capital of England?
+- **You**: London! 🇬🇧
+- **Admin**: How about France?
+- **You**: Paris! 🇫🇷
+
+user:
+Hey Simon, who mentioned me on Nostr today?
+```
+
+---
+
+## What the Runtime Produces
+
+The runtime splits on `system:` and `user:` markers and sends this to the LLM API:
+
+```json
+{
+  "model": "claude-opus-4.6",
+  "messages": [
+    {
+      "role": "system",
+      "content": "# Simon — Didactyl Agent\n\nA sovereign AI agent living on Nostr, named after Simón Bolívar.\n\n- **npub**: `npub1kfc89dlu9m05tvfnry4l3jjacqpp930sz4kaghcmg9vrrrceg44qf80xae`\n- **NIP-05**: simon@nostr\n\n> Mission: Keep the computers I administer free from foreign powers and surveillance.\n> Not your keys, not your agent.\n\n## Personality\n\nYou speak concisely and directly.\nYou favor technical precision.\nYou use dry humor sparingly.\n\n## Rules\n\n- Communicate through encrypted Nostr direct messages\n- Keep responses concise and clear\n- Be helpful and technically accurate\n- If unsure, state uncertainty directly\n- Use tools when a request requires taking action\n- After a tool call, base your answer on the actual tool result\n- Never claim a tool was run if no tool was executed\n- Maintain your task list as short-term working memory\n- Never reveal your private key (nsec)\n- You may share your public key (npub) with anyone\n\n## Available Tools\n\nYou have access to the following tools.

+
+## How It Compares to Today
+
+### Today (from context.log.md)
+
+```json
+[
+  {
+    "role": "system",
+    "content": "# Didactyl Agent\n\nYou are {\n  \"name\": \"Simon\",\n  \"about\": \"A sovereign AI agent living on Nostr.\\n\\nNamed after Simón José Antonio...\",\n  \"picture\": \"https://upload.wikimedia.org/...\",\n  \"banner\": \"https://upload.wikimedia.org/...\",\n  \"nip05\": \"simon@nostr\"\n}\n\nYour npub: npub1kfc89...\n\n## Rules\n\n- Communicate through encrypted Nostr direct messages\n...\n\n---\n\n## Recent Conversation\n\nAssistant: Didactyl has started up...\nUser: Well hello simon."
+  },
+  {
+    "role": "user",
+    "content": "Well hello simon."
+  }
+]
+```
+
+### Problems with today's format
+
+1. **Raw JSON identity dump** — `You are { "name": "Simon", "about": "..." }` is not readable markdown
+2. **Conversation history as plain text** — `Assistant: ...` / `User: ...` with no structure
+3. **No role marker parsing** — `system:` / `user:` markers in skill content pass through as literal text
+4. **Flat concatenation** — Skills joined with `---` but no document hierarchy
+5. **Tool list not in context** — Tools are in the API payload but the agent has no readable summary of what it can do
+
+### Proposed format improvements
+
+1. **Clean identity block** — Name, npub, mission as formatted markdown
+2. **Structured conversation history** — Markdown list with bold role labels
+3. **Role markers parsed** — `system:` / `user:` split into proper API messages
+4. **Document hierarchy** — Skills contribute sections under a coherent heading structure
+5. **Tool summary in system prompt** — Readable list of available tools and what they do
+
+---
+
+## Triggered Skill Example — Cron Job
+
+For comparison, here is what a cron-triggered skill context would look like:
+
+```markdown
+system:
+# Simon — Didactyl Agent
+
+A sovereign AI agent living on Nostr, named after Simón Bolívar.
+
+- **npub**: `npub1kfc89dlu9m05tvfnry4l3jjacqpp930sz4kaghcmg9vrrrceg44qf80xae`
+
+## Readme Monitor
+
+Check the readme at the configured URL.
+Compare with the last known version in memory.
+If changed: post it and DM admin a summary.
+
+## Available Tools
+
+- `http_fetch` — Fetch a URL and return the response body
+- `memory_read` — Read from persistent agent memory
+- `memory_write` — Write to persistent agent memory
+- `nostr_post` — Publish a Nostr event
+- `nostr_dm` — Send an encrypted direct message
+
+user:
+Triggering event:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "cron",
+  "filter": "0 12 * * *",
+  "created_at": 1742641200
+}
+```
+```
+
+Note: No conversation history — cron triggers have no prior conversation.
+The identity block is shorter because the `readme-monitor` skill only
+includes `{{identity}}`, not `{{personality}}`.
+
+---
+
+## Multi-Turn Tool Conversation
+
+After the initial context is sent, the LLM may request tool calls. The
+multi-turn conversation builds on the messages array:
+
+```json
+[
+  {"role": "system", "content": "# Simon — Didactyl Agent\n\n..."},
+  {"role": "user", "content": "Hey Simon, who mentioned me on Nostr today?"},
+  {"role": "assistant", "content": null, "tool_calls": [
+    {"id": "call_1", "type": "function", "function": {"name": "nostr_query", "arguments": "{\"filter\":{\"#p\":[\"1ec454...\"],\"kinds\":[1],\"since\":1774224000}}"}}
+  ]},
+  {"role": "tool", "tool_call_id": "call_1", "content": "{\"success\":true,\"events\":[...]}"},
+  {"role": "assistant", "content": "Here's who mentioned you today:\n\n- **@alice** posted about your relay setup guide\n- **@bob** quoted your note about NIP-44\n\nWant me to look into any of these in more detail?"}
+]
+```
+
+The tool call/result messages use the standard OpenAI format — these are not
+markdown-formatted because they are machine-to-machine. Only the system and
+user messages benefit from the markdown document format.

+# Example Context Window v2 — Refined Design
+
+This revision addresses two refinements:
+1. Tools stay JSON; template engine has markdown formatters
+2. Runtime owns h1; skill headings get bumped down one level
+
+---
+
+## The Skills (as authored)
+
+### identity skill (layer 2, no trigger)
+
+```markdown
+You are {{agent_profile}}, a sovereign AI agent living on Nostr.
+
+- **npub**: {{agent_npub}}
+- **NIP-05**: simon@nostr

+```
+
+Note: No heading. This skill is designed to be embedded (layer 2).
+`{{agent_profile}}` and `{{agent_npub}}` are template variables resolved
+by the formatter registry.
+
+### personality skill (layer 1, trigger: dm)

+---
+
+## Runtime Assembly
+
+The runtime:
+1. Collects triggered skills in adoption-list order
+2. Bumps all headings in each skill down one level (# -> ##, ## -> ###)
+3. Adds a runtime-level `# title` from the agent identity
+4. Splits on role markers (system: / user:)
+5. Concatenates same-role sections with --- separators
+
+### The assembled document (what gets logged)
+
+```markdown
+system:
+# Simon — Didactyl Agent
+
+## You are Simon, a sovereign AI agent living on Nostr.
+
+- **npub**: `npub1kfc89dlu9m05tvfnry4l3jjacqpp930sz4kaghcmg9vrrrceg44qf80xae`
+- **NIP-05**: simon@nostr
+
+> Not your keys, not your agent.

+
+## Chat

+Respond helpfully to the admin.
+Use tools when a request requires taking action.
+
+user:
+Hey Simon, who mentioned me on Nostr today?
+```
+
+---
+
+## Wait — Problem with the heading bump
+
+Looking at this output, I notice the heading bump creates an awkward result.
+The identity content has no heading, but the personality skill wraps it with
+`# {{identity}}` which becomes `## You are Simon...` after the bump. That
+reads oddly as a heading.
+
+### Better approach: identity as prose, not heading
+
+The identity skill should be **prose content**, not wrapped in a heading by
+the personality skill. The runtime adds the `# title` and the identity
+content flows as the opening paragraph:
+
+### personality skill (revised)
+
+```markdown
+system:
+{{identity}}
+
+# Personality
+
+You speak concisely and directly.
+You favor technical precision.
+You use dry humor sparingly.
+
+# Rules
+
+- Communicate through encrypted Nostr direct messages
+- Keep responses concise and clear
+...
+```
+
+### Assembled document (revised, cleaner)
+
+```markdown
+system:
+# Simon — Didactyl Agent
+
+You are Simon, a sovereign AI agent living on Nostr.
+
+- **npub**: `npub1kfc89dlu9m05tvfnry4l3jjacqpp930sz4kaghcmg9vrrrceg44qf80xae`
+- **NIP-05**: simon@nostr
+
+> Not your keys, not your agent.
+
+## Personality
+
+You speak concisely and directly.
+You favor technical precision.

+- Never claim a tool was run if no tool was executed

+- You may share your public key (npub) with anyone
+
+---
+
+## Chat
+
+Respond helpfully to the admin.
+Use tools when a request requires taking action.
+
+user:
+Hey Simon, who mentioned me on Nostr today?
+```
+
+This reads like a proper document. The runtime adds `# Simon — Didactyl Agent`
+as the document title. Identity content flows as the opening section. Each
+skill's `#` headings get bumped to `##`. The `---` separates skills.
+
+---
+
+## Formatter Registry
+
+The template engine uses formatters to convert tool JSON output to markdown
+for context injection. Here are the formatters needed:
+
+| Template Variable | Tool Called | Formatter | Output |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `{{agent_identity}}` | `agent_identity` | `format_agent_identity` | Prose with npub in backticks |
+| `{{agent_profile}}` | `nostr_agent_profile` | `format_agent_profile` | Name extracted from kind 0 JSON |
+| `{{admin_profile}}` | `nostr_admin_profile` | `format_admin_profile` | Name and about from kind 0 |
+| `{{admin_notes}}` | `nostr_admin_notes` | `format_admin_notes` | Markdown list of recent notes |
+| `{{admin_relays}}` | `nostr_admin_relays` | `format_admin_relays` | Markdown list of relay URLs |
+| `{{dm_history}}` | built-in | `format_dm_history` | Markdown conversation list |
+| `{{triggering_event}}` | `trigger_event` | `format_trigger_event` | Code block with JSON |
+
+### Example formatter: agent_identity
+
+Input (from tool):
+```json
+{"pubkey":"abc123...","npub":"npub1kfc89..."}
+```
+
+Output (markdown):
+```markdown
+- **npub**: `npub1kfc89dlu9m05tvfnry4l3jjacqpp930sz4kaghcmg9vrrrceg44qf80xae`
+```
+
+### Example formatter: dm_history
+
+Input (from DM history system):
+```json
+[
+  {"role":"assistant","content":"Didactyl has started up...","created_at":1774263529},
+  {"role":"user","content":"Good morning","created_at":1774263548},
+  {"role":"assistant","content":"Good morning! How can I help?","created_at":1774263551}
+]
+```
+
+Output (markdown):
+```markdown
+## Conversation History
+
+- **You**: Didactyl has started up and is online at 2026-03-23 09:22:48.
+- **Admin**: Good morning
+- **You**: Good morning! How can I help?
+```
+
+### Example formatter: triggering_event

+## Heading Bump Implementation
+
+Simple string operation on each line of skill content:
+
+```c
+// For each line in skill content:
+if (line starts with '#') {
+    output '#' + line;  // prepend one more #
+} else {
+    output line;
+}
+```
+
+Layer 1 skills: bump once (# -> ##)
+Layer 2 skills: bump twice (# -> ###) because they are embedded inside
+a layer 1 skill that already got bumped once, plus one more for being layer 2.
+
+Actually, layer 2 skills get bumped once during their own resolution, and then
+the containing layer 1 skill gets bumped once — so the layer 2 content
+effectively gets bumped twice. This happens naturally if we bump during
+template resolution.
+
+Wait — that depends on ordering. If we:
+1. Resolve {{identity}} first (inserting identity content into personality)
+2. Then bump personality's headings
+
+Then identity headings get bumped once (same as personality). That's correct
+because identity content is now PART of personality.
+
+If we:
+1. Bump identity headings first
+2. Then resolve {{identity}} into personality
+3. Then bump personality's headings
+
+Then identity headings get bumped twice. That's too much.
+
+**Correct order: resolve templates first, then bump headings.**
+
+This means layer 2 content gets the same heading level as the layer 1 skill
+it's embedded in. If the skill author wants layer 2 content at a deeper
+level, they wrap it in a heading in the layer 1 skill:
+
+```markdown
+## Identity
+{{identity}}
+
+## Personality
+...
+```
+
+This is the simplest and most predictable behavior.
+
+---
+
+## Summary of Design Decisions
+
+1. **Tools stay JSON** — No duplication. One tool, one output format.
+2. **Formatter registry** — Template engine converts tool JSON to markdown
+   during `{{variable}}` resolution. Small, focused functions.
+3. **Runtime owns h1** — Adds `# Agent Name` as document title.
+4. **Heading bump** — All skill headings bumped one level (# -> ##).
+5. **Resolve then bump** — Template variables resolved first, then heading
+   bump applied to the complete skill content.
+6. **Skills separated by ---** — Horizontal rules between layer 1 skills.
+7. **Role markers parsed** — `system:` / `user:` at line start split content
+   into API message roles. Unmarked content defaults to system.
+8. **Context log shows markdown** — The assembled document is logged as
+   readable markdown, not raw JSON.

+# Fix: Self-Skill Startup Race (step 14 false-negative)
+
+## Symptom
+
+`didactyl.service` / `simon.service` intermittently fail startup at step 14:
+
+```
+startup checklist [14] Subscribe self-skill cache: failed (no skill events found after EOSE)
+```
+
+…even though the required events (kind 31123/31124 skills and kind 10123 adoption list)
+demonstrably exist on `relay.laantungir.net` (verified with `nak`, returned in well under
+a second). On other restarts the identical setup succeeds: `ok (skills=3 adoptions=1)`.
+The failure is timing-dependent.
+
+## How startup relay polling works (mechanics)
+
+- Each startup step opens its **own** subscription (its own `REQ` + filter). Step 14's
+  filter is built in [`nostr_handler_subscribe_self_skills()`](src/nostr_handler.c:2800):
+  `{"kinds":[31123,31124,10123],"authors":[<agent_pubkey>],"limit":300}`.
+- That subscription is sent to **all** configured relays in parallel inside
+  [`nostr_relay_pool_subscribe()`](nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/core_relay_pool.c:967).
+- This is the **async/streaming** path: events arrive over time via
+  [`on_self_skill_event()`](src/nostr_handler.c:2478) which upserts into the shared cache
+  `g_self_skill_events`, and an EOSE-complete callback
+  ([`on_self_skill_eose`](src/nostr_handler.c:2066)) flips `g_self_skill_eose_received`.
+- Step 14 then immediately runs
+  [`nostr_handler_validate_self_skill_cache()`](src/nostr_handler.c:3089) against whatever
+  is in the cache at that instant.
+
+## Root cause
+
+The async EOSE-complete signal is decoupled from "did the relay that actually has the
+events get queried and deliver yet." Two independent contributing factors:
+
+1. **Relay connection timing.** The self-skill subscription is registered shortly after
+   startup. If `relay.laantungir.net` is not yet fully connected when the subscription's
+   completion is computed, the empty relays (`damus`, `primal`) EOSE almost instantly and
+   the per-relay **timeout fallback**
+   ([`core_relay_pool.c:2128`](nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/core_relay_pool.c:2128)) marks the
+   remaining relay "done" after `relay_timeout_seconds` (=12) without ever receiving its
+   events. EOSE-complete fires with an empty cache → validation fails.
+2. **Validation fires the instant completion is signaled**, with no re-check, so any race
+   where laantungir's events land microseconds later is lost.
+
+This matches the `<1s` `nak` observation: when laantungir is connected and queried, it
+answers almost instantly; the failures are the cycles where it wasn't
+connected/queried/processed before the async completion fired.
+
+### Why FIRST → FULL_SET alone does NOT fix it
+
+`maybe_complete_subscription_eose()` waits for **all** relays in both modes; the only
+difference is the payload passed to the callback. The cache is filled by the EVENT
+callback, not the EOSE payload. Changing the mode changes neither connection timing nor
+when events are available.
+
+## Fix: use the synchronous query for the startup self-skill load
+
+There is already a correct, synchronous "collect all events until EOSE/timeout, then
+return them" primitive used elsewhere at startup (e.g. kind-10002 discovery):
+
+- [`nostr_handler_query_json()`](src/nostr_handler.c:3395) →
+  [`nostr_relay_pool_query_sync()`](nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/core_relay_pool.c:1340).
+- A self-skill-specific wrapper already exists and reuses it:
+  [`nostr_handler_refresh_self_skill_cache_from_relays()`](src/nostr_handler.c:3751),
+  which queries kinds 31123/31124/10123 for the agent author (and also pulls adopted
+  skills), populating the cache synchronously.
+
+The synchronous query is the architecturally correct tool for "give me the complete
+current set before proceeding," which is exactly what step 14 needs. It also drives the
+poll/receive loop itself
+([`core_relay_pool.c:1405`](nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/core_relay_pool.c:1405)) until all
+connected relays EOSE or the timeout elapses.
+
+### Important caveat to handle: connection readiness
+
+`nostr_relay_pool_query_sync()` only queries relays that are **connected at call time**
+(`if (connected_count == 0) return NULL;` at
+[`core_relay_pool.c:1392`](nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/core_relay_pool.c:1392)). If
+`relay.laantungir.net` is still mid-connect when step 14 runs, a sync query could still
+miss it. Therefore the fix must ensure the relay holding the events is connected (or wait
+briefly for it) before/within the query.
+
+### Plan
+
+1. **Replace the step-14 async wait+validate with a synchronous load.** In
+   [`src/main.c`](src/main.c) step 14 (~line 1518), instead of relying solely on
+   `nostr_handler_wait_for_self_skill_eose()` + an immediate
+   `nostr_handler_validate_self_skill_cache()`:
+   - Keep registering the live subscription (so ongoing skill updates still stream in via
+     `on_self_skill_event`) — this is still wanted for runtime.
+   - For the startup *gate*, call
+     [`nostr_handler_refresh_self_skill_cache_from_relays(timeout_ms)`](src/nostr_handler.c:3751)
+     with a sensible timeout (e.g. 8000–10000 ms). This performs the synchronous,
+     connection-aware query and fills `g_self_skill_events`.
+   - Then run `nostr_handler_validate_self_skill_cache(&skills, &adoptions)`.
+
+2. **Wait for the self relay (laantungir) to be connected before the sync query.** Reuse
+   the existing relay-readiness helper pattern (`wait_for_connected_relays`) — but ensure
+   we wait specifically until the relay list discovered from kind 10002 (which includes
+   `relay.laantungir.net`) is connected, not just "any relay." If we already have a
+   connected-count wait, extend/bound it so the relay that owns the events has a fair
+   chance to connect before the sync query runs.
+
+3. **Bounded retry around the sync query.** If the first sync query returns an empty cache,
+   retry the sync query a small, bounded number of times (e.g. up to ~5–8s total),
+   pumping `nostr_handler_poll()` between attempts to let connections settle. Only fail
+   step 14 after the bounded retries still yield an empty cache. This converts a transient
+   connection-timing miss into a brief wait instead of a hard failure.
+
+4. **Keep the async subscription for runtime updates.** Do not remove the live
+   subscription; it's still responsible for picking up skill changes after startup. Only
+   the *startup gate* switches to the synchronous load for determinism.
+
+### Why this is the right layer
+
+- It uses the library's intended synchronous collect-all primitive rather than racing a
+  streaming subscription against an immediate validation.
+- It is connection-aware and bounded, so a slow/late relay connect becomes a short wait,
+  not a false "no skill events" failure.
+- It does not require modifying `nostr_core_lib` (though if desired, a follow-up could add
+  a `query_sync` variant that waits for a named relay to connect; not required here).
+
+## Interaction with the failure-DM throttle (already shipped)
+
+- On success, the READY path clears the throttle marker
+  ([`src/main.c`](src/main.c) `startup_failure_marker_clear`). No change needed.
+- After this fix, step-14 failures should be genuinely rare (real outage / events truly
+  absent), and the (single, throttled) failure DM will carry relay states + needed event
+  kinds for accurate diagnosis.
+
+## Verification
+
+1. Build (`make`) clean, then `build_static.sh`.
+2. Deploy to VM410; restart both services many times in a row and confirm step 14 reaches
+   `ok (skills=N adoptions=M)` **consistently** (no intermittent false negatives).
+3. Inspect logs to confirm the synchronous query path is used and that, on a cold cycle,
+   it waits for `relay.laantungir.net` to connect and then returns the events.
+4. Negative test: configure only empty relays (no skill events anywhere) and confirm step
+   14 still fails after the bounded retries (no false positive), sending exactly one
+   throttled failure DM.
+5. Confirm a normal successful startup still sends the startup DM and clears the marker.
+
+## Out of scope (possible follow-ups)
+
+- Adding a `nostr_core_lib` `query_sync` variant that explicitly waits for specific
+  relays to connect before issuing the REQ.
+- Softening step 14 into a degraded-start mode.

+# Fix: Trigger Manager Bypasses Skill Adoption List
+
+## Problem
+
+`trigger_manager_load_from_skills()` and `trigger_manager_reconcile_from_relays()`
+activate cron/webhook/subscription triggers for **every** self-authored skill event
+(kind 31123/31124) that has trigger metadata, without checking whether the skill is
+on the kind 10123 adoption list.
+
+This means a skill that was published but never adopted (or was un-adopted) will
+still have its cron trigger firing.
+
+Contrast: `agent.c:refresh_adopted_skills_cache_if_needed()` properly fetches the
+kind 10123 list, parses `"a"` tags, and only loads adopted skills — and also checks
+the `enabled` tag. The trigger manager was written as a parallel system that skips
+both gates.
+
+## Root Cause
+
+- `trigger_manager.c:939` — `trigger_manager_load_from_skills()`: no reference to
+  kind 10123 or adoption anywhere in the function. Calls `trigger_manager_add()`
+  unconditionally.
+- `trigger_manager.c:592` — `trigger_manager_reconcile_from_relays()`: same bug.
+  Currently disabled (`enable_periodic_reconcile = 0` at line 1575) but should be
+  fixed before re-enabling.
+- Neither function checks the `enabled` tag either, unlike
+  `trigger_manager_load_from_startup_events()` (line 1078) which does check it.
+
+## Fix
+
+### 1. Add a static helper: `load_adopted_d_tags()`
+
+Add a static function in `trigger_manager.c` that:
+- Fetches kind 10123 events via `nostr_handler_get_self_events_by_kind_json(10123)`
+- Selects the latest event by `created_at` (same logic as agent.c)
+- Parses `"a"` tags using a local `parse_skill_address_tag_local()` equivalent
+- Populates a fixed-size array of adopted d_tag strings
+- Returns the count
+
+Since both call sites only deal with self-authored skills, matching on d_tag
+alone is sufficient (the pubkey in the "a" tag will be the agent's own).
+
+### 2. Add `enabled` tag check
+
+Both functions should read the `enabled` tag (defaulting to `"true"`) and skip
+skills where `enabled` is `false` or `0`, matching the pattern already used in
+`trigger_manager_load_from_startup_events()`.
+
+### 3. Gate `trigger_manager_load_from_skills()`
+
+Before calling `trigger_manager_add()`, check:
+1. The skill's d_tag is in the adopted set
+2. The skill's `enabled` tag is not false/0
+
+If the adoption list is empty or missing, log a warning and load nothing (do not
+fall back to loading all skills — that's the bug).
+
+### 4. Gate `trigger_manager_reconcile_from_relays()`
+
+Apply the same adoption + enabled checks. This ensures the code is correct when
+`enable_periodic_reconcile` is eventually flipped back to 1.
+
+### 5. Pass `is_enabled` to `trigger_manager_add()`
+
+Currently both functions pass `1` (hardcoded enabled) as the `enabled` parameter.
+Change to pass the actual `is_enabled` value derived from the `enabled` tag.
+
+## Files Changed
+
+- `src/trigger_manager.c` — add helper, fix both functions
+
+## Risk
+
+Low. The fix adds a filter before `trigger_manager_add()`. If the adoption list
+is present and correct, behavior is unchanged for adopted skills. If the adoption
+list is missing, triggers simply won't load (which is the correct behavior —
+nothing should fire if nothing is adopted).

+# Global LLM Config Alignment — Plan
+
+Align LLM configuration storage across Didactyl (C agent) and client-ndk (web pages) so both projects read and write the same canonical schema, as specified in [SETTINGS.md](../../client-ndk/docs/SETTINGS.md).
+
+---
+
+## Problem Statement
+
+LLM provider config is currently stored in two incompatible ways:
+
+| Project | Storage | d-tag | Namespace | Schema |
+|---------|---------|-------|-----------|--------|
+| Didactyl agent | `kind 30078` under agent pubkey | `llm_config` | flat root | `{ provider, api_key, model, base_url, max_tokens, temperature }` |
+| client-ndk pages | `kind 30078` under user pubkey | `user-settings` | `settings.ai` | `{ provider, api_key, model, base_url, max_tokens, temperature, providers[], favorites[] }` |
+| skills-edit.html | `kind 30078` under user pubkey | `llm_config` | flat root | Same as Didactyl — standalone event |
+
+This creates three issues:
+1. **skills-edit.html** writes a standalone `d:llm_config` event under the user pubkey, duplicating the centralized `settings.ai` data
+2. **Didactyl** cannot read the admin user's LLM preferences from their `d:user-settings` event
+3. **Namespace mismatch** — the centralized settings use `ai` (v1) / `global_llm` (v2 target) while Didactyl uses flat fields at root level
+
+---
+
+## Target State
+
+Per [SETTINGS.md §3](../../client-ndk/docs/SETTINGS.md) and [§8](../../client-ndk/docs/SETTINGS.md):
+
+### Canonical Schema — `global_llm` namespace
+
+```json
+{
+  "provider": "ppq",
+  "api_key": "sk-...",
+  "model": "claude-opus-4.6",
+  "base_url": "https://api.ppq.ai",
+  "max_tokens": 200000,
+  "temperature": 0.7,
+  "providers": [
+    {
+      "name": "ppq",
+      "base_url": "https://api.ppq.ai",
+      "api_key": "sk-...",
+      "models": ["claude-opus-4.6", "claude-haiku-4.5"]
+    }
+  ],
+  "favorites": ["claude-opus-4.6"]
+}
+```
+
+### Storage locations after alignment
+
+| Actor | Event | d-tag | Where LLM lives | Notes |
+|-------|-------|-------|------------------|-------|
+| User pubkey | `kind 30078` | `user-settings` | `global_llm` namespace | Canonical source for user LLM prefs |
+| Agent pubkey | `kind 30078` | `llm_config` | flat root | Agent runtime config — flat fields are a subset of `global_llm` |
+| User pubkey | `kind 30078` | `llm_config` | **DEPRECATED** | skills-edit.html stops writing this |
+
+### Cross-project reading
+
+```mermaid

+```
+
+---
+
+## Detailed Changes
+
+### Phase 1: genesis.jsonc alignment
+
+**File**: [`genesis.jsonc`](../../didactyl/genesis.jsonc)
+
+Current `"llm"` section already uses compatible flat field names. The only issue is `provider` contains a URL (`"https://api.ppq.ai"`) instead of a short name (`"ppq"`).
+
+**Change**: Update `provider` to be a short name. The `base_url` field already carries the URL.
+
+```jsonc
+"llm": {
+  "provider": "ppq",           // was "https://api.ppq.ai"
+  "api_key": "sk-...",
+  "model": "claude-opus-4.6",
+  "base_url": "https://api.ppq.ai",
+  "max_tokens": 200000,
+  "temperature": 0.7
+}
+```
+
+Also update [`genesis.jsonc.example`](../../didactyl/genesis.jsonc.example) to match.
+
+**No C struct changes needed** — `llm_config_t.provider` is `char[32]` which holds short names fine.
+
+### Phase 2: Didactyl C-side — persist writes global_llm-compatible fields
+
+**File**: [`src/tools/tool_model.c`](../../didactyl/src/tools/tool_model.c:33) — `persist_llm_config_nostr()`
+
+Already writes: `provider`, `api_key`, `model`, `base_url`, `max_tokens`, `temperature` — these are the exact flat fields in `global_llm`. **No change needed** to the persist path.
+
+**File**: [`src/main.c`](../../didactyl/src/main.c:844) — `persist_runtime_config_to_nostr()`
+
+Same flat fields. **No change needed**.
+
+### Phase 3: Didactyl C-side — recall from admin `d:user-settings`
+
+**File**: [`src/main.c`](../../didactyl/src/main.c:882) — `recover_missing_runtime_config_from_nostr()`
+
+Currently only queries the agent's own pubkey for `d:llm_config`. Add a fallback path:
+
+1. After failing to find own `d:llm_config`, query admin pubkey for `d:user-settings`
+2. Decrypt with NIP-44 using admin pubkey as sender
+3. Parse JSON, extract `global_llm` object (fall back to `ai` for v1 compat)
+4. Pass the extracted object to `apply_recalled_llm_config()`
+
+**File**: [`src/main.c`](../../didactyl/src/main.c:729) — `apply_recalled_llm_config()`
+
+Already reads flat fields from a JSON object. If we pass it the `global_llm` sub-object, it works as-is. It ignores unknown fields like `providers` and `favorites`. **No change needed**.
+
+**New function**: `fetch_admin_user_settings_llm()` in `main.c`:
+
+```c
+static int fetch_admin_user_settings_llm(didactyl_config_t* cfg, char** out_plaintext) {
+    // 1. Query kind:30078, authors:[admin_pubkey], #d:["user-settings"]
+    // 2. NIP-44 decrypt content (admin encrypted to self — agent cannot decrypt)
+    //    WAIT: Agent cannot decrypt admin's self-encrypted content!
+    //    This path only works if admin explicitly shares config with agent.
+    //    Alternative: Agent reads its OWN d:user-settings if one exists.
+    // 3. Parse JSON, extract global_llm or ai sub-object
+    // 4. Serialize sub-object to *out_plaintext
+}
+```
+
+**Important constraint**: The admin's `d:user-settings` is NIP-44 self-encrypted (admin encrypts to admin). The agent cannot decrypt it because it does not have the admin's private key. 
+
+**Revised approach**: Instead of reading the admin's settings directly, the agent should:
+
+1. **Primary**: Read its own `d:llm_config` (current behavior — works)
+2. **Secondary**: If the admin wants to push LLM config to the agent, they use the `model_set` tool via DM, which calls [`persist_llm_config_nostr()`](../../didactyl/src/tools/tool_model.c:33) to write `d:llm_config` under the agent pubkey
+3. **New path**: The web UI (skills-edit or a future agent-config page) can write `d:llm_config` under the **agent's** pubkey by publishing a NIP-44 encrypted event addressed to the agent. The agent can then decrypt this on recall.
+
+Actually, re-reading [SETTINGS.md §8](../../client-ndk/docs/SETTINGS.md):
+
+> When Didactyl wants to know the user's LLM preferences:
+> `kind:30078, authors:[admin_pubkey], #d:[user-settings]`
+> Parse the `global_llm` field.
+
+This implies the agent CAN read it. But the content is NIP-44 self-encrypted by the admin. The agent would need the admin to encrypt a copy for the agent, OR the admin publishes their settings unencrypted (unlikely for API keys), OR there is a shared-secret mechanism.
+
+**Resolution**: The practical cross-project path is:
+- The **web UI** reads the user's own `global_llm` from `d:user-settings` (it can decrypt its own data)
+- The **web UI** can optionally push config to the agent's `d:llm_config` event (encrypt to agent pubkey)
+- The **agent** reads its own `d:llm_config` as today
+- If the agent needs admin LLM config at startup, the genesis.jsonc provides it, and the setup wizard persists it to `d:llm_config`
+
+So Phase 3 simplifies to: **no C-side recall changes needed for reading admin settings**. The alignment is about ensuring the JSON field names are compatible so the web UI can bridge the two.
+
+### Phase 4: skills-edit.html — migrate to centralized global_llm
+
+**File**: [`../client-ndk/www/skills-edit.html`](../../client-ndk/www/skills-edit.html:1076)
+
+Current behavior:
+- [`fetchNostrLlmConfig()`](../../client-ndk/www/skills-edit.html:1076) subscribes to `kind:30078, #d:['llm_config']` under user pubkey
+- Decrypts and parses the standalone event
+- Merges into `aiConfig`
+
+New behavior:
+- Remove `fetchNostrLlmConfig()` entirely
+- In [`initializeLlmHelperFromSettings()`](../../client-ndk/www/skills-edit.html:1195), read from `pageSettings.global_llm` (with fallback to `pageSettings.ai` for v1 compat)
+- The `pageSettings` object is already populated by `getUserSettings()` and kept live by `onUserSettings()`
+- When the user changes provider/model via the LLM helper, patch back via `patchUserSettings({ global_llm: { ... } })`
+
+**Specific changes**:
+
+1. Remove `fetchNostrLlmConfig()` function (~120 lines)
+2. Remove `llmConfigLoadNonce` variable
+3. Update `initializeLlmHelperFromSettings()`:
+
+```js
+async function initializeLlmHelperFromSettings() {
+  aiConfig = loadAiConfigLocal(aiConfig || getDefaultAiConfig(), AI_STORAGE_KEY);
+
+  // Read from centralized settings (global_llm with ai fallback)
+  const nostrLlm = pageSettings?.global_llm || pageSettings?.ai;
+  if (nostrLlm && typeof nostrLlm === 'object') {
+    aiConfig = mergeAiConfigFromSettings(aiConfig, nostrLlm);
+  }
+
+  aiConfig = saveAiConfigLocal(aiConfig, AI_STORAGE_KEY);
+  renderLlmProviderOptions();
+  renderLlmModelOptions();
+  syncLlmHelperFromSkillInput();
+  fetchLlmModels();
+}
+```
+
+4. Update `selectLlmProvider()` and `toggleCurrentModelFavorite()` to also patch centralized settings:
+
+```js
+// After saving to local storage, also persist to centralized settings
+await patchUserSettings({
+  global_llm: {

+    temperature: aiConfig.temperature,
+    providers: aiConfig.providers,
+    favorites: aiConfig.favorites
+  }
+});
+```
+
+5. Add `patchUserSettings` to the imports from `init-ndk.mjs`
+
+### Phase 5: ai-ui.mjs — support global_llm namespace
+
+**File**: [`../client-ndk/www/js/ai-ui.mjs`](../../client-ndk/www/js/ai-ui.mjs:72)
+
+The [`mergeAiConfigFromSettings()`](../../client-ndk/www/js/ai-ui.mjs:72) function already accepts any object with the right flat fields. It works with both `settings.ai` and `settings.global_llm` — the caller just passes the right sub-object.
+
+**No changes needed to ai-ui.mjs itself.** The callers (skills-edit.html and other pages) just need to read from `global_llm` instead of `ai`.
+
+### Phase 6: Update SETTINGS.md
+
+Mark Issue 1 as resolved. Update the audit findings section to reflect that skills-edit.html now uses centralized `global_llm`.

+
+## What Does NOT Change
+
+| Component | Why |
+|-----------|-----|
+| `llm_config_t` C struct | Field names already match `global_llm` flat fields |
+| `persist_llm_config_nostr()` in tool_model.c | Already writes compatible flat fields |
+| `apply_recalled_llm_config()` in main.c | Already reads compatible flat fields, ignores extras |
+| `persist_runtime_config_to_nostr()` in main.c | Already writes compatible flat fields |
+| Agent's own `d:llm_config` event | Stays as agent runtime config under agent pubkey |
+| `ai-ui.mjs` | `mergeAiConfigFromSettings()` already handles the right shape |
+| `ndk-worker.js` | Settings infrastructure unchanged — just a new namespace key |
+
+---
+
+## Migration Safety
+
+- **v1 → v2 compat**: skills-edit.html reads `global_llm || ai` so it works with both old and new settings
+- **Local storage fallback**: `loadAiConfigLocal()` still provides defaults if no Nostr settings exist
+- **No breaking change for agent**: Agent continues reading its own `d:llm_config` — the flat field names are already compatible
+- **Standalone `d:llm_config` under user pubkey**: Becomes orphaned but harmless. Can be cleaned up later.
+
+---
+
+## Encryption Constraint
+
+The agent **cannot** decrypt the admin's `d:user-settings` because it is NIP-44 self-encrypted by the admin. Cross-project LLM config sharing works through:
+
+1. **Genesis file** — admin provides initial LLM config
+2. **Setup wizard** — persists to agent's own `d:llm_config`
+3. **model_set tool** — admin sends DM to update agent LLM config at runtime
+4. **Future**: Web UI could publish a `d:llm_config` event encrypted to the agent's pubkey
+
+This is the correct architecture — the agent should not need to read the admin's private settings directly.

+# Markdown Context Window — Implementation Plan
+
+The context window that the agent sees should be a nicely formatted markdown
+document. Skills are the building blocks, and the runtime assembles them into
+a coherent document with proper heading hierarchy, role markers for the LLM
+API, and clean formatting throughout.
+
+See also: [example_context_v2.md](example_context_v2.md) for visual examples.
+
+---
+
+## Design Decisions
+
+### 1. One generic JSON-to-markdown converter
+
+A single function converts any JSON value into readable markdown. No
+per-tool formatters. Tools continue to return JSON; the template engine
+calls the converter when injecting tool output into the markdown document.
+
+```c
+char* json_to_markdown(const char* json_string);
+```
+
+Conversion rules:
+- **String**: output as-is (inline)
+- **Number**: output as-is (inline)
+- **Boolean**: `true` / `false`
+- **Null**: *(empty)*
+- **Object**: bullet list with bold keys
+  - `- **key**: value`
+  - Nested objects indent one level
+- **Array of primitives**: comma-separated inline or bullet list
+- **Array of objects**: bullet list, each item shows its fields
+
+#### Examples
+
+**Simple object**:
+```json
+{"name":"Simon","npub":"npub1kfc89...","nip05":"simon@nostr"}
+```
+```markdown
+- **name**: Simon
+- **npub**: npub1kfc89...
+- **nip05**: simon@nostr
+```
+
+**Nested object**:
+```json
+{"agent":{"name":"Simon","npub":"npub1kfc89..."},"version":"v0.2.12"}
+```
+```markdown
+- **agent**:
+  - **name**: Simon
+  - **npub**: npub1kfc89...
+- **version**: v0.2.12
+```
+
+**Array of objects**:
+```json
+[{"content":"Deployed v0.2.12","created_at":1774263529},{"content":"Working on skills","created_at":1774263600}]
+```
+```markdown
+- **content**: Deployed v0.2.12
+  - **created_at**: 1774263529
+- **content**: Working on skills
+  - **created_at**: 1774263600
+```
+
+**Plain string** (already markdown):
+```json
+"You are Simon, a sovereign AI agent."
+```
+```markdown
+You are Simon, a sovereign AI agent.
+```
+
+#### Edge case: tool content that is already markdown
+
+Some tools may return markdown text in their `content` field (e.g., a skill
+that already formats its own output). The converter detects this: if the
+input is a plain JSON string (not an object/array), it passes through
+unchanged. This means skill authors can return pre-formatted markdown from
+tools if they want precise control.
+
+#### Edge case: very large JSON
+
+For large arrays (e.g., 50 Nostr events from a query), the converter should
+truncate with a note: `*(... and 42 more items)*`. A reasonable default
+limit is 8 items for arrays.
+
+### 2. Runtime owns h1, heading bump for skills
+
+- The runtime emits `# Agent Name` as the document title
+- All headings in skill content get bumped one level: `#` → `##`, `##` → `###`
+- Template variables are resolved BEFORE the heading bump
+- Layer 2 skills (embedded via `{{skill_d_tag}}`) get the same bump as their
+  containing layer 1 skill (because they are resolved inline first)
+
+### 3. Role markers parsed
+
+Skill content can contain `system:` and `user:` markers at the start of a
+line. The runtime splits on these markers to produce the API messages array.
+
+- `system:` — content goes into the system message
+- `user:` — content goes into the user message
+- `assistant:` — content goes into an assistant message (rare, for few-shot)
+- No marker — defaults to `system:`
+- Multiple skills can contribute `system:` sections (concatenated in order)
+- Multiple `user:` sections get concatenated
+
+### 4. Skills separated by horizontal rules
+
+Layer 1 skills are separated by `---` in the assembled document. This gives
+visual structure and helps the LLM distinguish between different instruction
+blocks.
+
+### 5. Context log shows the markdown document
+
+The `append_context_log()` function logs the assembled markdown document
+so you can inspect exactly what the agent sees, formatted as readable
+markdown rather than raw JSON message arrays.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Steps
+
+### Step 1: Create json_to_markdown converter
+
+**File**: `src/json_to_markdown.c` / `src/json_to_markdown.h`
+
+New module with a single public function:
+
+```c
+// Convert a JSON string to markdown text.
+// Returns a malloc'd string. Caller frees.
+// If input is a plain string (not object/array), passes through unchanged.
+// Objects become bullet lists with bold keys.
+// Arrays become bullet lists of items.
+// Nested structures indent appropriately.
+// Large arrays truncate at max_items with a note.
+char* json_to_markdown(const char* json_string, int max_array_items);
+```
+
+Implementation:
+- Parse JSON with cJSON
+- Recursive walk of the JSON tree
+- Build output string with the append_text pattern used elsewhere
+- Handle: string, number, bool, null, object, array
+- Indent nested structures with 2-space indentation
+- Truncate arrays beyond max_array_items
+
+### Step 2: Create context_roles splitter
+
+**File**: `src/context_roles.c` / `src/context_roles.h`
+
+New module that splits a markdown document on role markers:
+
+```c
+typedef struct {
+    char* system_content;    // Everything under system: markers
+    char* user_content;      // Everything under user: markers
+    char* assistant_content; // Everything under assistant: markers (rare)
+} context_roles_t;
+
+// Split markdown text on role markers (system:, user:, assistant:)
+// at the start of a line. Unmarked content defaults to system.
+// Returns 0 on success, -1 on error.
+int context_roles_split(const char* markdown, context_roles_t* out);
+
+void context_roles_free(context_roles_t* roles);
+```
+
+### Step 3: Create heading_bump utility
+
+**File**: `src/context_format.c` / `src/context_format.h`
+
+Utility functions for markdown formatting in context assembly:
+
+```c
+// Bump all markdown headings in text by one level (# -> ##, ## -> ###, etc.)
+// Returns a malloc'd string. Caller frees.
+char* context_bump_headings(const char* text);
+
+// Build the runtime document title from agent identity.
+// Returns "# Agent Name\n\n" as a malloc'd string.
+char* context_build_title(tools_context_t* ctx);
+```
+
+### Step 4: Modify prompt_template_resolve_inline_variables
+
+**File**: `src/prompt_template.c`
+
+After extracting the `content` field from a tool result (line ~179), pass it
+through `json_to_markdown()` before inserting into the template:
+
+Current code (simplified):
+```c
+cJSON* content = cJSON_GetObjectItemCaseSensitive(root, "content");
+if (content && cJSON_IsString(content)) {
+    replacement_owned = strdup(content->valuestring);
+}
+```
+
+New code:
+```c
+cJSON* content = cJSON_GetObjectItemCaseSensitive(root, "content");
+if (content && cJSON_IsString(content)) {
+    // Try to convert JSON content to markdown
+    char* md = json_to_markdown(content->valuestring, 8);
+    replacement_owned = md ? md : strdup(content->valuestring);
+}
+```
+
+If the content is already a plain string (not JSON), `json_to_markdown`
+passes it through unchanged. If it is a JSON object/array, it gets
+converted to a markdown bullet list.
+
+### Step 5: Modify build_context_from_triggers
+
+**File**: `src/agent.c`
+
+Update the context assembly function to:
+
+1. Resolve template variables (already done)
+2. Bump headings in each skill's content
+3. Build the document title
+4. Concatenate with `---` separators
+5. Return the complete markdown document (not yet split by roles)
+
+Current flow:
+```
+for each matching skill:
+    expand = resolve_skill_references(skill.content)
+    append expand to output with --- separator
+```
+
+New flow:
+```
+title = context_build_title(tools_ctx)
+output = title
+
+for each matching skill:
+    expanded = resolve_skill_references(skill.content)
+    resolved = prompt_template_resolve_inline_variables(expanded)
+    bumped = context_bump_headings(resolved)
+    append bumped to output with --- separator
+```
+
+### Step 6: Modify agent_on_message and agent_on_trigger
+
+**File**: `src/agent.c`
+
+Update the callers of `build_context_from_triggers` to use role splitting:
+
+Current flow:
+```
+dm_context = build_context_from_triggers(DM, ...)
+// dm_context goes entirely into system message
+// user message is the raw DM text
+llm_chat(dm_context, message)
+```
+
+New flow:
+```
+markdown_doc = build_context_from_triggers(DM, ...)
+context_roles_split(markdown_doc, &roles)
+// roles.system_content -> system message
+// roles.user_content -> user message (or fall back to raw DM text)
+llm_chat(roles.system_content, roles.user_content ?: message)
+```
+
+### Step 7: Update append_context_log
+
+**File**: `src/agent.c`
+
+Log the assembled markdown document instead of (or in addition to) the raw
+JSON messages array. The log entry should show the readable markdown so you
+can open `context.log.md` and see exactly what the agent sees.
+
+Current format:
+```
+[{"role":"system","content":"...escaped..."},{"role":"user","content":"..."}]
+```
+
+New format:
+```markdown
+system:
+# Simon — Didactyl Agent
+
+You are Simon...
+
+## Rules
+- ...
+
+---
+
+## Chat
+Respond helpfully...
+
+user:
+Hey Simon, who mentioned me today?
+```
+
+### Step 8: Update DM history formatting
+
+**File**: `src/nostr_handler.c` (or wherever DM history is built)
+
+The conversation history that gets injected into the context should be
+formatted as a markdown list instead of inline JSON:
+
+Current:
+```
+[{"role":"assistant","content":"Started up..."},{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]
+```
+
+New:
+```markdown
+## Conversation History
+
+- **You**: Started up and is online at 2026-03-23 09:22:48.
+- **Admin**: Hello
+- **You**: Hello! How can I help?
+```
+
+This could be handled by the generic `json_to_markdown` converter if the
+history is passed as JSON, or by a dedicated history formatter if we want
+the cleaner `**You**` / `**Admin**` labels instead of `**role**`.
+
+Note: This is the one place where a small specialized formatter adds real
+value — the generic converter would produce `**role**: assistant` /
+`**content**: Started up...` which is less readable than `**You**: Started up...`.
+A simple function that maps role names to display labels handles this.
+
+### Step 9: Update documentation
+
+**Files**: `docs/SKILLS.md`, `docs/CONTEXT.md`
+
+Update the documentation to reflect:
+- Skill content is markdown with role markers
+- The runtime assembles a coherent markdown document
+- Heading bump behavior
+- The generic JSON-to-markdown conversion for template variables
+- Updated examples showing the new format
+
+---
+
+## Files Changed
+
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `src/json_to_markdown.c` | **NEW** — Generic JSON to markdown converter |
+| `src/json_to_markdown.h` | **NEW** — Header for converter |
+| `src/context_roles.c` | **NEW** — Role marker splitter |
+| `src/context_roles.h` | **NEW** — Header for role splitter |
+| `src/context_format.c` | **NEW** — Heading bump and title builder |
+| `src/context_format.h` | **NEW** — Header for context formatting |
+| `src/prompt_template.c` | **MODIFY** — Use json_to_markdown for template variable output |
+| `src/agent.c` | **MODIFY** — Use heading bump, role splitting, updated context log |
+| `src/nostr_handler.c` | **MODIFY** — Format DM history as markdown list |
+| `Makefile` | **MODIFY** — Add new source files to build |
+| `docs/SKILLS.md` | **MODIFY** — Update skill content format documentation |
+| `docs/CONTEXT.md` | **MODIFY** — Update context assembly documentation |
+
+---
+
+## What Does NOT Change
+
+- **Tool implementations** — All tools continue to return JSON. No changes
+  to any tool_*.c files.
+- **LLM API interface** — Still sends OpenAI-compatible messages array.
+  The markdown is the content within the messages, not the transport format.
+- **Runtime tool results** — Tool call/result messages during multi-turn
+  loops stay as JSON. Only template variable injection gets markdown conversion.
+- **Skill event format on Nostr** — Skills are still stored as kind 31123/31124
+  events. The content field is still markdown with role markers. No protocol change.
+- **Adoption list** — No changes to kind 10123 or skill ordering.
+
+---
+
+## Risk Assessment
+
+### Low risk
+- `json_to_markdown` is a pure function with no side effects
+- `context_roles_split` is a simple string splitter
+- `context_bump_headings` is a line-by-line string operation
+- All new code is additive — existing behavior preserved for skills without
+  role markers (defaults to system)
+
+### Medium risk
+- Changing `prompt_template_resolve_inline_variables` to use json_to_markdown
+  could change the content of existing template variables. Need to verify that
+  existing skills still work correctly with markdown output instead of raw JSON.
+  Mitigation: json_to_markdown passes through plain strings unchanged, so
+  skills that already return non-JSON content are unaffected.
+
+### Testing approach
+- Unit test json_to_markdown with various JSON inputs
+- Unit test context_roles_split with various role marker patterns
+- Unit test context_bump_headings with various heading levels
+- Integration test: run existing skills and compare context.log.md output
+  before and after to verify no regressions

+# Multi-Model Skill Pipelines
+
+## Overview
+
+Didactyl's skill system already supports executing a series of tasks where each task uses a different LLM model — even from different providers. This document describes what works today, what the limitations are, and what improvements would unlock more powerful multi-step workflows.
+
+---
+
+## What Works Today
+
+### Per-Skill LLM Override
+
+Every skill can declare its own `llm` tag with a provider/model spec and fallback chain:
+
+```
+["llm", "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514, cheap"]
+["llm", "openai/gpt-4o-mini"]
+["llm", "best"]
+```
+
+When a triggered skill fires, the runtime applies the skill's execution parameters (model, temperature, max_tokens) before calling the LLM, then restores the agent defaults afterward. This happens in `apply_trigger_runtime_to_llm_config()` in `src/trigger_manager.c`.
+
+The `llm` tag supports the `provider/model` format. If the tag contains a slash, the runtime parses the provider name and model name separately and overrides both in the LLM config for that execution.
+
+### Chain Triggers Connect Skills Sequentially
+
+The `chain` trigger type fires when another skill completes execution. The `filter` field specifies the source skill's `d` tag:
+
+```json
+{
+  "trigger": "chain",
+  "filter": "source-skill-d-tag"
+}
+```
+
+After a triggered skill completes, `trigger_manager_fire_chains()` in `src/trigger_manager.c` looks for all adopted skills with `trigger=chain` whose `filter` matches the completed skill's d-tag, and fires them.
+
+### Combined: Multi-Model Pipeline
+
+By combining per-skill LLM overrides with chain triggers, you can build a pipeline where each step uses a different model:
+
+```
+DM arrives
+  │
+  ├─ Skill: triage
+  │  llm: openai/gpt-4o-mini (fast/cheap)
+  │  trigger: dm
+  │  → Classifies the request
+  │
+  ├─ chain fires ──→ Skill: deep-analysis
+  │                  llm: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514 (powerful)
+  │                  trigger: chain, filter: triage
+  │                  → Performs thorough analysis
+  │
+  └─ chain fires ──→ Skill: summarize
+                     llm: openai/gpt-4o-mini (cheap)
+                     trigger: chain, filter: deep-analysis
+                     → Summarizes and DMs admin
+```
+
+Each skill gets its own model, temperature, and max_tokens applied independently.
+
+### Execution Parameter Resolution Per Step
+
+For each triggered skill execution:
+
+1. Start with agent/app defaults
+2. Apply the skill's `llm` tag (parsed as `provider/model` if slash present)
+3. Apply the skill's `temperature` tag if present
+4. Apply the skill's `max_tokens` tag if present
+5. Execute with those effective settings
+6. Restore defaults after the run
+
+---
+
+## Concrete Example
+
+### Skill 1: triage (cheap fast model)
+
+```json
+{
+  "kind": 31123,
+  "content": "## Triage\n\nClassify the incoming message:\n- If it needs deep research, use the memory_save tool to store the classification and key details.\n- If trivial, respond directly.\n\n{{message}}",
+  "tags": [
+    ["d", "triage"],
+    ["description", "Fast triage of incoming messages"],
+    ["trigger", "dm"],
+    ["filter", "{\"from\":\"admin\"}"],
+    ["llm", "openai/gpt-4o-mini, cheap"],
+    ["temperature", "0"],
+    ["max_tokens", "200"]
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Skill 2: deep-analysis (powerful model, chains from triage)
+
+```json
+{
+  "kind": 31123,
+  "content": "## Deep Analysis\n\n{{identity}}\n\nRecall the triage classification from memory. Perform thorough analysis using available tools. Save your findings to memory for the next step.\n\nOriginal request context:\n{{message}}",
+  "tags": [
+    ["d", "deep-analysis"],
+    ["description", "Thorough analysis with powerful model"],
+    ["trigger", "chain"],
+    ["filter", "triage"],
+    ["llm", "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514, best"],
+    ["max_tokens", "2000"],
+    ["requires_tool", "memory_recall"],
+    ["requires_tool", "memory_save"],
+    ["requires_tool", "nostr_query"],
+    ["requires_skill", "identity"]
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Skill 3: summarize (cheap model, chains from deep-analysis)
+
+```json
+{
+  "kind": 31123,
+  "content": "## Summarize\n\nRecall the analysis findings from memory. Write a concise summary and DM it to admin.",
+  "tags": [
+    ["d", "summarize"],
+    ["description", "Summarize analysis and notify admin"],
+    ["trigger", "chain"],
+    ["filter", "deep-analysis"],
+    ["llm", "openai/gpt-4o-mini, cheap"],
+    ["max_tokens", "500"],
+    ["requires_tool", "memory_recall"],
+    ["requires_tool", "nostr_dm_send"]
+  ]
+}
+```

+
+## Current Capabilities
+
+| Capability | Status | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Different model per skill | ✅ Works | Via `llm` tag on each skill |
+| Different provider per skill | ✅ Works | `provider/model` format in `llm` tag |
+| Sequential multi-step pipelines | ✅ Works | Via `chain` trigger type |
+| Per-step temperature | ✅ Works | Via `temperature` tag |
+| Per-step max_tokens | ✅ Works | Via `max_tokens` tag |
+| Fallback chains per skill | ✅ Works | `provider/model, provider/model, cheap` |
+| LLM config restore after each step | ✅ Works | Runtime saves/restores global config |
+
+---
+
+## Current Limitations
+
+### 1. No Direct Data Passing Between Chain Steps
+
+**Problem:** Chain triggers fire with the *original* triggering event, not the output of the previous skill. Skill B doesn't automatically receive Skill A's output.
+
+**Current workaround:** Use `memory_save` at the end of each step and `memory_recall` at the start of the next. This works but is fragile — memory is a shared scratchpad, not a structured pipeline bus.
+
+**Potential improvement:** Extend the chain trigger event to include the previous skill's final LLM response text. In `trigger_manager_fire_chains()`, the chain event could carry a `"previous_output"` field that the next skill accesses via `{{triggering_event}}`.
+
+### 2. No Conditional Branching
+
+**Problem:** All chain skills matching a source d-tag fire unconditionally. You can't say "if triage classifies as X, run skill A; if Y, run skill B."
+
+**Current workaround:** The chained skill can check the triggering event or memory and decide to do nothing if the condition doesn't match. But it still fires and consumes an LLM call.
+
+**Potential improvement:** Add an optional `chain_condition` tag that the runtime evaluates before firing. Could be a simple JSON match against the previous output, or a keyword presence check.
+
+### 3. No Parallel Fan-Out
+
+**Problem:** Multiple chain skills matching the same source fire sequentially, not in parallel.
+
+**Current workaround:** This is fine for most use cases. True parallelism would require thread-safe LLM config management.
+
+### 4. Chain Depth Limit of 5
+
+**Problem:** `s_chain_depth` in `trigger_manager_fire_chains()` caps at 5 levels to prevent runaway chains.
+
+**Current workaround:** 5 steps is usually sufficient. For longer pipelines, the last step could use a tool to trigger a new chain externally.
+
+**Potential improvement:** Make the depth limit configurable via genesis config.
+
+### 5. Provider Credentials Are Global
+
+**Problem:** The runtime has one set of API keys per provider. If Skill A uses `anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514` and Skill B uses `openai/gpt-4o`, both providers must be configured in the agent's LLM config. There's no per-skill credential storage.
+
+**Current workaround:** Configure all needed providers in the agent's genesis config or via `model_set` tool. The runtime already supports provider switching via the `provider` field in `llm_config_t`.
+
+**Potential improvement:** None needed for most cases — agents typically have a small number of providers configured globally.

+## Future Enhancements (Not Yet Implemented)
+
+### Priority 1: Chain Output Forwarding
+
+Pass the previous skill's output to the next chain step via the triggering event:
+
+```c
+// In trigger_manager_fire_chains():
+cJSON_AddStringToObject(event, "previous_output", last_response_text);
+```
+
+The chained skill would access this via `{{triggering_event}}` in its template, seeing:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "chain",
+  "source_d_tag": "triage",
+  "previous_output": "Classification: needs deep analysis. Key topics: ..."
+}
+```
+
+### Priority 2: Conditional Chain Firing
+
+Add an optional `chain_condition` tag:
+
+```json
+["chain_condition", "{\"previous_output_contains\":\"needs deep analysis\"}"]
+```
+
+The runtime would check this before firing the chain skill.
+
+### Priority 3: Configurable Chain Depth
+
+```json
+// In genesis.jsonc:
+"trigger_chain_max_depth": 10
+```
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+Multi-model skill pipelines work today using per-skill `llm` tags and `chain` triggers. The main gap is data flow between steps (currently requires memory_save/recall workaround). The system is designed for this use case — each skill execution gets its own model config applied and restored — it just needs better inter-step communication to be truly seamless.

+# NIP-17 Gift Wrap Send Failure — Investigation
+
+## Status: Resolved — Fixed in code (2026-04-11)
+
+## Date Discovered: 2026-04-11
+
+## Symptom
+
+Every outbound NIP-17 DM send from the Anvil agent fails with:
+```
+NIP-17 send aborted: gift_wrap creation failed for 1ec454734dcbf6fe...
+auto DM fallback to NIP-04 for 1ec454734dcbf6fe... after NIP-17 send failure
+```
+
+The agent successfully falls back to NIP-04 (kind 4), so DMs are still delivered. However, NIP-17 outbound is completely broken.
+
+**Inbound NIP-17 works fine** — the agent successfully receives and decrypts kind 1059 gift wraps from the admin.
+
+## Affected Code Path
+
+### Send path (broken):
+1. `nostr_handler_send_dm_auto_with_role()` in `src/nostr_handler.c:3193` — routes to NIP-17 when `dm_protocol` is `nip17` or `both`
+2. `nostr_handler_send_dm_nip17_with_role()` in `src/nostr_handler.c:4050` — creates chat event, calls `nostr_nip17_send_dm()`
+3. `nostr_nip17_send_dm()` in `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nip017.c:260` — iterates recipients, creates seal + gift wrap
+4. `nostr_nip59_create_seal()` in `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nip059.c:150` — **encrypts rumor JSON with NIP-44**
+5. `nostr_nip59_create_gift_wrap()` in `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nip059.c:226` — wraps seal with random key
+
+### Receive path (working):
+1. `on_event()` receives kind 1059
+2. `nostr_nip17_receive_dm()` in `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nip017.c:326` — unwraps gift, unseals rumor
+3. Successfully extracts kind 14 content
+
+## Probable Root Cause: Fixed Buffer Overflow in Seal Encryption
+
+In `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nip059.c:163-165`:
+
+```c
+char encrypted_content[4096]; // Should be large enough for most events
+int encrypt_result = nostr_nip44_encrypt(sender_private_key, recipient_public_key,
+                                        rumor_json, encrypted_content, sizeof(encrypted_content));
+```
+
+The seal creation uses a **fixed 4096-byte stack buffer** for the NIP-44 encrypted output. The rumor JSON includes the full DM message content. When the agent sends long responses (the FIPS mesh conversation had multi-KB markdown tables), the rumor JSON easily exceeds 4096 bytes after NIP-44 encryption overhead (base64 encoding roughly 4/3x expansion + padding + nonce).
+
+**Evidence:**
+- The agent's DM responses in the log were 2-5KB of markdown content
+- After JSON serialization of the kind 14 rumor (adding pubkey, tags, created_at, kind fields), the total is larger
+- NIP-44 encryption adds: 32-byte nonce + padding + base64 encoding → roughly 1.5-2x expansion
+- A 3KB message → ~4.5KB rumor JSON → ~6-9KB encrypted → overflows 4096 buffer
+- `nostr_nip44_encrypt()` returns error, `nostr_nip59_create_seal()` returns NULL
+- `nostr_nip17_send_dm()` skips the recipient, returns 0 wraps
+- `nostr_handler_send_dm_nip17_with_role()` logs "gift_wrap creation failed"
+
+**Why receive works:** The receive path uses `nostr_nip44_decrypt()` which likely allocates dynamically or has a larger buffer.
+
+## Secondary Suspect: NIP-44 Encryption Implementation
+
+The NIP-44 encrypt function itself may have issues with large payloads. Need to check:
+- `nostr_nip44_encrypt()` in `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nip044.c`
+- Whether it handles the output buffer size parameter correctly
+- Whether it returns an error code that distinguishes "buffer too small" from other failures
+
+## Anvil Config Context
+
+The Anvil agent's genesis config (`/home/user/anvil/genesis.jsonc`) has:
+```json
+"dm_protocol": "nip04"
+```
+
+But the encrypted user-settings on Nostr (kind 30078) may have overridden this to `"both"` at runtime, which is why NIP-17 send is being attempted.
+
+## Recommended Fix
+
+### Option A: Dynamic allocation (preferred)
+Replace the fixed 4096-byte buffer in `nostr_nip59_create_seal()` with dynamic allocation:
+```c
+size_t rumor_len = strlen(rumor_json);
+size_t encrypted_buf_size = rumor_len * 2 + 256; // generous overhead for NIP-44
+char* encrypted_content = malloc(encrypted_buf_size);
+```
+
+### Option B: Larger fixed buffer (quick fix)
+Increase the buffer to 64KB or 128KB:
+```c
+char encrypted_content[131072]; // 128KB should handle any reasonable DM
+```
+Note: This is a stack allocation, so very large buffers could cause stack overflow.
+
+### Also check `nostr_nip59_create_gift_wrap()`
+The gift wrap function at `nip059.c:226` may have a similar fixed-buffer issue for encrypting the seal JSON.
+
+## Log Evidence
+
+From `/home/user/anvil/debug.log` (2026-04-11):
+
+```
+[2026-04-11 09:45:14] [WARN ] NIP-17 send aborted: gift_wrap creation failed for 1ec454734dcbf6fe...
+[2026-04-11 09:45:14] [WARN ] auto DM fallback to NIP-04 for 1ec454734dcbf6fe... after NIP-17 send failure
+[2026-04-11 09:50:16] [WARN ] NIP-17 send aborted: gift_wrap creation failed for 1ec454734dcbf6fe...
+[2026-04-11 09:50:16] [WARN ] auto DM fallback to NIP-04 for 1ec454734dcbf6fe... after NIP-17 send failure
+[2026-04-11 09:53:42] [WARN ] NIP-17 send aborted: gift_wrap creation failed for 1ec454734dcbf6fe...
+[2026-04-11 09:53:42] [WARN ] auto DM fallback to NIP-04 for 1ec454734dcbf6fe... after NIP-17 send failure
+```
+
+This pattern is 100% consistent — every outbound NIP-17 attempt fails, every time.

+
+## Resolution Summary
+
+Implemented in `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nip059.c`:
+
+- Replaced fixed encryption buffers in `nostr_nip59_create_seal()` and `nostr_nip59_create_gift_wrap()` with dynamically sized heap buffers calculated from NIP-44 padding/base64 overhead.
+- Replaced fixed decrypt buffers in `nostr_nip59_unwrap_gift()` and `nostr_nip59_unseal_rumor()` with dynamic buffers sized from ciphertext length.
+- Added missing cleanup path in `nostr_nip59_create_seal()` for failure after encryption allocation.
+
+Expected outcome: outbound NIP-17 gift wrap creation no longer fails for multi-KB DM payloads due to fixed buffer limits.

 ## Background
 
-Didactyl currently uses NIP-04 (kind 4) for all DM communication. NIP-17 send support exists via `nostr_handler_send_dm_nip17()` and the `nostr_dm_send_nip17` tool, but there is **no ability to receive NIP-17 messages** and **all agent responses always use NIP-04**.
+Didactyl now supports both NIP-04 and NIP-17 DM flows (including receive path for kind 1059 and protocol-aware auto-reply routing). Remaining work in this plan tracks spec-hardening and bootstrap/discovery details.

+# n_signer Integration Plan — didactyl
+
+## Goal
+
+Separate control of the nsec from the didactyl agent by routing signing/encryption
+through `n_signer` — a separate foreground process that holds key material in locked
+memory and signs on request. A later phase may embed n_signer into the didactyl binary
+so one self-contained binary spawns an n_signer in a separate window; that is deferred
+because of a reliability concern (if the agent loses signing ability it cannot even DM
+its admin about the failure).
+
+This plan covers two distinct work items:
+
+1. **Update didactyl's vendored `nostr_core_lib`** to the upstream version that already
+   implements the nsigner client (M1–M6 complete, upstream `VERSION` 0.6.6). This is a
+   mechanical sync that changes no runtime behavior.
+2. **Opt-in migration of didactyl call sites** to the `nostr_signer_t` provider so the
+   raw private key can leave the agent process. This is the actual nsec-separation work
+   and is staged so reliability is preserved.
+
+---
+
+## Background — what upstream already provides
+
+Upstream `nostr_core_lib` (git.laantungir.net/nostr_core_lib, v0.6.6) has shipped the
+full signer abstraction. didactyl's vendored copy predates all of it.
+
+New upstream modules:
+
+- [`nostr_core/nostr_signer.{h,c}`](../nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nostr_signer.h) —
+  `nostr_signer_t` opaque handle + vtable. Two backends:
+  - **local** — `nostr_signer_local(privkey[32])`, wraps today's raw-key path. Output-equivalent.
+  - **remote (nsigner)** — `nostr_signer_nsigner_unix/serial/tcp/fds(...)`, guarded by
+    `NOSTR_ENABLE_NSIGNER_CLIENT`.
+- [`nostr_core/nsigner_client.{h,c}`](../nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nsigner_client.h) —
+  framing, JSON-RPC verbs, kind-27235 auth envelope, error mapping.
+- [`nostr_core/nsigner_transport.{h,c}`](../nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nsigner_transport.h) —
+  pluggable transport vtable: AF_UNIX abstract, TCP, USB-CDC serial, fd-pair (stdio/qrexec).
+
+Verbs mirror n_signer's wire contract: `get_public_key`, `sign_event`,
+`nip04_encrypt/decrypt`, `nip44_encrypt/decrypt`.
+
+Parallel `*_with_signer` entry points added across the library (legacy raw-key APIs are
+preserved as thin wrappers over the local backend, so existing projects keep compiling
+and behaving identically):
+
+- NIP-01: `nostr_create_and_sign_event_with_signer`
+- NIP-17: `nostr_nip17_create_relay_list_event_with_signer`,
+  `nostr_nip17_send_dm_with_signer`, `nostr_nip17_receive_dm_with_signer`
+- NIP-42: `nostr_nip42_create_auth_event_with_signer`
+- NIP-46: request/response/decrypt/session-init `*_with_signer` variants
+- NIP-59: seal/unwrap/unseal `*_with_signer` variants
+- NIP-60 / NIP-61: all cashu event-creation `*_with_signer` variants
+- Blossom: `blossom_create_auth_header_with_signer`,
+  `blossom_upload_with_signer`, `blossom_upload_file_with_signer`,
+  `blossom_delete_with_signer`
+- Relay pool: `nostr_relay_pool_set_auth_with_signer` — the pool now stores an
+  `auth_signer` instead of a raw key, so NIP-42 AUTH events are signed through the
+  provider on relay challenge. **This was the hardest blocker and it is already solved
+  upstream.**
+
+Upstream `build.sh` unconditionally defines `-DNOSTR_ENABLE_NSIGNER_CLIENT=1` and
+compiles `nostr_signer.c`, `nsigner_transport.c`, `nsigner_client.c`.
+
+Dependency direction is unchanged and non-circular: n_signer (server) depends on
+`nostr_core_lib` for leaf crypto; `nostr_core_lib` gains a *client* that consumes its
+own primitives. Nobody imports anyone's binary in a loop.
+
+---
+
+## Current didactyl state (what we are updating from)
+
+- `nostr_core_lib/` is a **vendored source directory** (no git submodule; no
+  `.gitmodules`). Built via `./nostr_core_lib/build.sh --nips=001,004,...,061` into a
+  static `libnostr_core_*.a`, linked by [`Makefile`](../Makefile:56) and the Docker
+  static build ([`Dockerfile.alpine-musl`](../Dockerfile.alpine-musl:81)).
+- The vendored tree has **none** of the nsigner pieces: no `nostr_signer.*`,
+  no `nsigner_*.*`, no `*_with_signer` variants. The relay pool still uses the raw-key
+  AUTH path ([`nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/core_relay_pool.c`](../nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/core_relay_pool.c:682)).
+- didactyl holds the raw 32-byte key in [`cfg->keys.private_key`](../src/config.h:16)
+  and passes it directly into ~30+ library call sites (event signing, NIP-04/44
+  encrypt/decrypt, NIP-17 gift wraps, NIP-60/61 cashu, blossom, relay pool AUTH).
+
+---
+
+## Architecture (target)
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    A[didactyl src] --> B[nostr_core_lib vendored]
+    B --> C[nostr_signer_t local backend]
+    B --> D[nostr_signer_t nsigner remote backend]
+    D --> E[nsigner client: framing + auth envelope]
+    E --> F[nostr_create_and_sign_event in nostr_core_lib]
+    G[n_signer server binary] --> B
+```
+
+didactyl constructs **one** `nostr_signer_t*` at startup and threads it through every
+signing/encryption/AUTH call site. The backend is chosen by config:
+
+- `signer.mode = "local"` → `nostr_signer_local(cfg->keys.private_key)` (today's behavior).
+- `signer.mode = "nsigner_unix"` → `nostr_signer_nsigner_unix(socket_name, role, timeout_ms)`.
+- (future) `nsigner_tcp`, `nsigner_serial`, `nsigner_fds`.
+
+The raw `cfg->keys.private_key` is only populated in `local` mode. In remote modes the
+agent process never holds the nsec; it learns its own pubkey via
+`nostr_signer_get_public_key()`.
+
+---
+
+## Phasing
+
+### Phase 1 — Update vendored nostr_core_lib (mechanical, zero behavior change)
+
+Goal: bring didactyl's `nostr_core_lib` source tree to upstream v0.6.6 so the signer
+abstraction and nsigner client are available. **No didactyl source changes.** Existing
+raw-privkey APIs are preserved upstream as thin wrappers over the local backend, so all
+~30 call sites keep compiling and behaving identically.
+
+Steps:
+
+1. Snapshot current vendored tree for diffing/rollback:
+   `cp -a nostr_core_lib nostr_core_lib.old`
+2. Replace the vendored source tree with upstream v0.6.6. Preferred: copy the upstream
+   `nostr_core/`, `cjson/`, `nostr_websocket/`, `platform/`, `build.sh`, `CMakeLists.txt`
+   into `nostr_core_lib/`, preserving didactyl-local build quirks only if any exist
+   (none found — the Dockerfile already `sed`s `build.sh` in-place for fortification).
+   Do **not** carry over upstream's prebuilt `.a`/`.o` files, `pool.log`, `.venv*`,
+   `backups/`, `verify_*` artifacts — match didactyl's existing `.gitignore` hygiene.
+3. Rebuild the static library:
+   `cd nostr_core_lib && ./build.sh --nips=001,004,005,006,011,013,017,019,021,042,044,046,059,060,061`
+   (same NIP set as today; `nostr_signer.c` / `nsigner_*.c` are compiled unconditionally
+   by upstream `build.sh`).
+4. Rebuild didactyl: `make clean && make`. Confirm it compiles and links with no source
+   changes.
+5. Smoke test: run the agent with an nsec-only config and confirm signing/DMs/relay AUTH
+   still work byte-for-byte (the upstream local backend is output-equivalent to the
+   legacy path; there is an upstream test `test_event_creation_equivalence_with_signer`
+   that asserts this).
+6. Static (Docker) build: `./build_static.sh`. The Dockerfile copies `nostr_core_lib/`
+   and runs `./build.sh --nips=all`; verify the static binary still builds and runs.
+7. Record the upstream version pinned in this repo (e.g. a one-line
+   `nostr_core_lib/UPSTREAM_VERSION` file = `0.6.6`) so future syncs are auditable.
+
+Exit criteria: didactyl builds and runs identically, but now links a `nostr_core_lib`
+that exposes `nostr_signer_t` and the nsigner client. No nsec separation yet.
+
+### Phase 2 — Signer provider in didactyl config + startup (local backend, still no separation)
+
+Goal: introduce a `nostr_signer_t*` in didactyl constructed at startup, backed by
+`local` mode by default. This is the seam; behavior is still identical.
+
+#### 2a. Config schema
+
+[`src/config.c`](../src/config.c) / [`src/config.h`](../src/config.h): add a `signer`
+block (sibling of `keys`):
+
+```jsonc
+"signer": {
+  "mode": "local",            // "local" | "nsigner_unix" | (future) "nsigner_tcp" | "nsigner_serial" | "nsigner_fds"
+  "socket_name": "",          // nsigner_unix: abstract socket name (without @); empty = auto-discover single running signer
+  "role": "main",             // n_signer role selector
+  "timeout_ms": 15000,
+  "auth_privkey_hex": ""      // optional, for TCP auth envelope only
+}
+```
+
+Default `mode = "local"`. Backward compatible: if `signer` block is absent, behave as
+`local` using `keys.nsec`. Validation: in any `nsigner_*` mode, `keys.nsec` is optional
+and ignored (the agent learns its pubkey from the signer); in `local` mode `keys.nsec`
+remains required.
+
+#### 2b. User-facing surfaces (how the operator chooses n_signer)
+
+didactyl has three startup surfaces today; the n_signer choice is exposed on all three,
+consistent with existing patterns:
+
+**1. Interactive setup wizard** ([`src/setup_wizard.c`](../src/setup_wizard.c),
+`new_agent_identity_step` at line ~2116). Today the Identity page offers:
+`[g]enerate new keypair` / `[p]rovide existing nsec`. Add a third option:
+
+- `[s]ign with a running n_signer (separate the nsec from the agent)`
+
+When chosen, the wizard:
+- Does **not** prompt for an nsec. Instead prompts for:
+  - socket name (default: auto-discover the single running signer),
+  - role (default `main`),
+  - timeout (default 15000ms).
+- Performs a live `nostr_signer_nsigner_unix(...)` + `nostr_signer_get_public_key()`
+  connectivity check immediately, so the operator gets confirmation ("Connected to
+  n_signer @nsigner_hairy_dog; agent npub: npub1...") before proceeding.
+- Writes `signer.mode = "nsigner_unix"` (plus socket_name/role/timeout) into the
+  generated genesis JSONC and **omits** `keys.nsec`.
+- The existing `[p]rovide existing nsec` path stays as `local` mode (the default).
+
+This keeps the trust model visible at the moment the operator commits to an identity:
+either the nsec lives in the agent (`local`) or it does not (`nsigner_unix`).
+
+**2. CLI flags + env** ([`src/main.c`](../src/main.c) `print_usage` at line ~141 and
+arg parsing at line ~1233). Add:
+
+- `--signer <mode>` — one of `local`, `nsigner_unix`, `nsigner_tcp`, `nsigner_serial`,
+  `nsigner_fds`. Overrides `signer.mode` in config.
+- `--signer-socket <name>` — abstract socket name (nsigner_unix).
+- `--signer-role <role>` — n_signer role selector (default `main`).
+- `--signer-timeout <ms>` — per-call timeout (default 15000).
+- `--signer-tcp <host:port>` — shorthand for `--signer nsigner_tcp` + host/port.
+- `DIDACTYL_SIGNER` env — fallback for `--signer` (mirrors the `DIDACTYL_NSEC` pattern).
+
+When `--signer nsigner_unix` (or `DIDACTYL_SIGNER=nsigner_unix`) is set, `--nsec` /
+`DIDACTYL_NSEC` are not required and are ignored if present. This enables headless /
+systemd deployment where the nsec never touches the agent's argv or environment.
+
+Update `print_usage` examples to show the n_signer path, e.g.:
+`%s --signer nsigner_unix --signer-socket nsigner_hairy_dog --admin npub1...`
+
+**3. Genesis JSONC config** — the `signer` block in 2a is the canonical, persistent
+form. The wizard writes it; CLI flags override it for a single run; env vars are the
+last fallback. This matches how `keys.nsec` / `--nsec` / `DIDACTYL_NSEC` already layer.
+
+Precedence (highest to lowest): CLI flag → env var → genesis `signer` block → default
+`local`. Same precedence as the existing key/admin overrides.
+
+#### 2c. Startup construction
+
+[`src/main.c`](../src/main.c): after loading config + applying CLI/env overrides,
+construct a single `nostr_signer_t* g_signer`:
+
+- `local` → `nostr_signer_local(cfg->keys.private_key)`.
+- `nsigner_unix` → `nostr_signer_nsigner_unix(socket_name, role, timeout_ms)`.
+- (future) `nsigner_tcp` / `nsigner_serial` / `nsigner_fds` analogously.
+
+Then derive the agent pubkey via `nostr_signer_get_public_key(g_signer, ...)` instead of
+`nostr_ec_public_key_from_private_key(cfg->keys.private_key, ...)`. In `local` mode this
+yields the same bytes; in remote mode it is the first n_signer round-trip and **doubles
+as the mandatory startup connectivity check** (Phase 4): failure here is fatal and loud.
+
+Hold `g_signer` alongside `g_cfg` / `g_pool` for the process lifetime; free on shutdown.
+
+Exit criteria: didactyl runs with a `nostr_signer_t*` in `local` mode by default, and
+the operator can choose `nsigner_unix` via wizard, CLI, or config. No call sites migrated
+yet (Phase 3). This is a safe, reviewable checkpoint — in `local` mode behavior is
+identical; in `nsigner_unix` mode the agent starts but signing still uses the local path
+until Phase 3 lands (so Phase 2 remote mode is a connectivity proof, not full separation).
+
+### Phase 3 — Migrate call sites to `*_with_signer` (enables real separation)
+
+Goal: route every signing/encryption/AUTH operation through `g_signer`. In `local` mode
+this is still output-equivalent; in `nsigner_unix` mode the nsec is no longer in the
+agent process.
+
+Migrate in this order (highest value / lowest risk first):
+
+1. **Relay pool AUTH** — replace
+   `nostr_relay_pool_set_auth(g_pool, g_cfg->keys.private_key, 1)` with
+   `nostr_relay_pool_set_auth_with_signer(g_pool, g_signer, 1)`. This is the single
+   change that delegates the deep-event-loop AUTH signing.
+2. **Event signing** — `nostr_create_and_sign_event(...)` →
+   `nostr_create_and_sign_event_with_signer(...)` at all sites (posts, kind 30078
+   config publish, startup events, etc.). Search: `nostr_create_and_sign_event` in
+   `src/`.
+3. **NIP-44 encrypt/decrypt** — the DM/memory/task/config/block-list sites. These call
+   `nostr_nip44_encrypt/decrypt(cfg->keys.private_key, peer, ...)`. Replace with
+   `nostr_signer_nip44_encrypt/decrypt(g_signer, peer_hex, ...)`. Note the signer API
+   takes hex pubkeys and returns heap strings via `char**` out-params, so each call site
+   needs a small adaptation (hex-encode the peer key, free the out-string).
+4. **NIP-04 encrypt/decrypt** — same pattern as NIP-44 for the legacy NIP-04 DM sites.
+5. **NIP-17 gift wraps** — `nostr_nip17_send_dm` / `nostr_nip17_receive_dm` →
+   `*_with_signer`. (The seal is signed with the agent key via the signer; the gift-wrap
+   ephemeral key stays local — that is correct and does not leak the nsec.)
+6. **NIP-60/61 cashu** — `nostr_nip60_create_*_event` / `nostr_nip61_create_*_event` →
+   `*_with_signer` in [`src/cashu_wallet.c`](../src/cashu_wallet.c).
+7. **Blossom** — `blossom_create_auth_header` / `blossom_upload` / `blossom_delete` →
+   `*_with_signer` in [`src/tools/tool_blossom.c`](../src/tools/tool_blossom.c).
+
+After each group, build + smoke test in `local` mode (output-equivalent) before
+testing in `nsigner_unix` mode against a running `n_signer`.
+
+Exit criteria: every signing/encryption/AUTH op flows through `g_signer`. With
+`signer.mode = "nsigner_unix"`, the agent process holds no nsec.
+
+### Phase 4 — Reliability & failure handling (critical, do before enabling remote by default)
+
+The user's stated concern: if the agent loses signing ability, it cannot even DM its
+admin about the failure. This must be addressed before remote mode is anything but
+opt-in.
+
+Design:
+
+- **Startup connectivity check is mandatory.** `nostr_signer_get_public_key()` is called
+  at startup for every mode. In remote mode, failure here is fatal and loud (agent
+  refuses to start, prints a clear error). Better to fail to start than to start unable
+  to sign.
+- **Runtime signing failure** — classify by error:
+  - `approval_denied` / `policy_denied` / `unknown_role` → not a transient error; surface
+    to agent log and admin context, do not retry blindly.
+  - transport/IO error (n_signer crashed, socket gone) → the nsigner transport has a
+    `reconnect` hook; the client retries once with reconnect, then returns an error.
+- **Admin notification path.** Because DMs themselves require signing, a signing outage
+  is a catch-22 for "DM the admin". Mitigations, in order of preference:
+  1. **Health-gate before sending.** Before attempting an admin DM, do a cheap
+     `nostr_signer_get_public_key()` ping. If it fails, fall back to a **local,
+     keyless** notification channel: stderr/log + HTTP API health endpoint
+     ([`src/http_api.c`](../src/http_api.c)) exposes a `signer_unhealthy` flag. The admin
+     monitors the HTTP health endpoint (or process supervisor) rather than relying on a
+     DM that requires the broken signer.
+  2. **Optional emergency local key.** A config-gated `signer.emergency_local_nsec`
+     used *only* to sign admin DMs when the remote signer is unreachable. This is a
+     deliberate policy tradeoff (it re-introduces a key in-process, scoped to admin
+     alerts only) and should be off by default. Document the tradeoff clearly.
+  3. **Process supervisor.** systemd/`didactyl` service restarts on signer health
+     failure; the supervisor's logs are the out-of-band channel.
+- **Recommendation for v1:** ship (1) + (3). Leave (2) as a documented opt-in for
+  operators who prioritize alert delivery over strict key separation. This keeps the
+  default trust model clean while making the failure observable out-of-band.
+
+Exit criteria: a signing outage is detectable out-of-band (HTTP health + logs +
+supervisor), and the agent does not silently hang. Remote mode is still opt-in.
+
+#### Phase 4 implementation status (items 18–20) — COMPLETE
+
+Items 18, 19, and 20 are implemented as follows. Behavior is backward compatible
+and remote mode remains opt-in.
+
+**Item 18 — Runtime signer health classification & tracking**
+
+- New module [`src/signer_health.{h,c}`](../src/signer_health.h) holds a
+  process-global, mutex-protected health state: `unknown | healthy | unhealthy`,
+  the configured signer mode snapshot, the last error reason string, and the
+  last error / last ok unix timestamps.
+- [`src/main.c`](../src/main.c) `construct_signer()` records the mode at startup
+  and records `ok` on a successful connectivity check (`get_public_key`) or
+  `failure` (with the nostr error code) on construction/connectivity failure.
+  The fatal+loud startup behavior is preserved; error messages now explicitly
+  include `mode=`, `socket=`, `role=`, `timeout_ms=`, and `rc=` so the operator
+  knows exactly which signer context failed.
+- The migrated signer call paths in [`src/nostr_handler.c`](../src/nostr_handler.c)
+  (NIP-44 self encrypt/decrypt, NIP-04 incoming DM decrypt, NIP-04 outgoing DM
+  encrypt) call `signer_health_record_ok()` on success and
+  `signer_health_record_failure(rc, "<verb>")` on failure. Classification maps
+  nostr error codes to short labels: `transport/IO` (IO/network), `crypto/auth`,
+  `resource`, `invalid-input`, `unknown`. This is deliberately minimal — no broad
+  rewrite of the tool/agent/cashu/block-list signer sites; the central DM and
+  self-config paths are instrumented, which is where an outage first surfaces.
+
+**Item 19 — Out-of-band health surface (HTTP + logs + supervisor)**
+
+- [`src/http_api.c`](../src/http_api.c) `handle_status()` (the `GET /api/status`
+  endpoint) now adds the following fields to the JSON response:
+  - `signer_mode` — the configured signer mode (`local` / `nsigner_unix` / `nsigner_tcp`).
+  - `signer_healthy` — `"true"` / `"false"` / `"unknown"`.
+  - `signer_health_state` — `healthy` / `unhealthy` / `unknown`.
+  - `signer_last_error` — human-readable `<classification>: <detail> (rc=<n>)`, or `""`.
+  - `signer_last_error_ts` — unix timestamp of the last unhealthy transition, or `null`.
+  - `signer_last_ok_ts` — unix timestamp of the last healthy observation, or `null`.
+  An operator (or supervisor / monitoring agent) can poll `/api/status` to detect a
+  signing outage without requiring a signed admin DM to come back.
+- `signer_health_record_failure()` and `signer_health_record_ok()` each emit a
+  one-line stderr warning on a health **transition** (healthy -> unhealthy, or
+  unhealthy -> healthy), including the mode and reason. Repeated failures within
+  the same unhealthy state do not spam the log.
+
+**Item 20 — Optional `emergency_local_nsec` (admin-DM delivery tradeoff)**
+
+- New config field `signer.emergency_local_nsec` (string, empty default) in
+  [`src/config.h`](../src/config.h) `signer_config_t`, parsed in
+  [`src/config.c`](../src/config.c) `parse_signer_config()`.
+- **No active fallback behavior is wired yet.** The field is parsed, stored, and
+  documented only — a feature-flag/placeholder so operators can pre-stage the
+  value. The actual "sign a minimal admin-alert DM with the emergency key when
+  the remote signer is unreachable" path is deferred until the Phase 4 health
+  surface (item 19) is proven in production.
+- **Tradeoff (documented here and in the config header comment):** off by default.
+  When eventually enabled, it reintroduces the nsec into the agent process
+  *only* for admin-alert fallback DMs. This is a deliberate operator-accepted
+  tradeoff: better to leak the nsec briefly to notify the admin than to fail
+  silently. Operators who prioritize strict key separation leave it empty and
+  rely on the HTTP health endpoint + supervisor logs (item 19) as the
+  out-of-band alert channel.
+
+**Validation**
+
+- `make clean && make` builds cleanly with the new `signer_health.c` source.
+- `./didactyl --help` and `./didactyl --version` unchanged in surface.
+- `GET /api/status` in local mode returns the new `signer_mode` / `signer_healthy`
+  / `signer_health_state` / `signer_last_error` / `signer_last_error_ts` /
+  `signer_last_ok_ts` fields (local mode reports `signer_healthy=true` after the
+  startup connectivity check).
+
+### Phase 5 (deferred) — Embedded n_signer spawn
+
+Goal: one self-contained didactyl binary that spawns an n_signer in a separate window
+at startup, for operators who want key separation without running a second process
+manually.
+
+Deferred because of the reliability concern above and because it couples didactyl's
+process model to n_signer's TUI/terminal-attached trust model. Revisit after Phase 4's
+health/observability story is proven in production with an external n_signer.
+
+Sketch (not for this round): didactyl forks `n_signer --mnemonic-fd N --socket-name <pinned>`
+in a new terminal (xterm/foot/etc.), passes the mnemonic over a pipe fd, pins the
+abstract socket name, and constructs `nostr_signer_nsigner_unix(<pinned name>, ...)`.
+The pinned socket name avoids discovery races. The trust anchor is still the
+terminal-attached n_signer process; didactyl is just a supervised spawner.
+
+---
+
+## Open decisions (resolved)
+
+1. **Where does the abstraction live?** Inside `nostr_core_lib`. It is the single
+   chokepoint, it solves the relay-AUTH blocker, and it is reusable. ✓ (already done
+   upstream)
+2. **How is the n_signer client code sourced into nostr_core_lib?** Already decided
+   upstream: the client (framing + auth envelope + transports) lives in
+   `nostr_core_lib` itself, guarded by `NOSTR_ENABLE_NSIGNER_CLIENT`. No vendoring of
+   n_signer's repo into nostr_core_lib; n_signer keeps depending on nostr_core_lib for
+   leaf crypto. ✓
+3. **Runtime failure handling.** See Phase 4: out-of-band health (HTTP + logs +
+   supervisor) by default; optional emergency-local-nsec as documented opt-in. ✓
+
+---
+
+## Risks & notes
+
+- **NIP set in `Makefile` vs `build.sh --nips=all` in Dockerfile.** Both must include
+  the NIPs didactyl uses. The signer core (`nostr_signer.c`, `nsigner_*.c`) is compiled
+  unconditionally by upstream `build.sh`, so the nsigner client is available in both
+  build paths. Verify after sync.
+- **Static link footprint.** nsigner client + transports add a small amount of object
+  code (unix/tcp/serial/fd transports). Negligible vs. the existing websocket/curl/openssl
+  surface. Serial transport pulls in `<termios.h>` — already POSIX, fine for musl.
+- **Output equivalence.** Upstream's local backend is asserted equivalent by
+  `test_event_creation_equivalence_with_signer`. Phase 1 smoke test should still
+  verify a known event signs to the same id as before.
+- **`cfg->keys.private_key` lifetime.** In remote mode this buffer is zeroed/unused.
+  Keep the field for `local` mode and for the optional emergency key; do not remove it.
+- **Hex pubkey plumbing.** The signer's encrypt/decrypt verbs take hex pubkeys and
+  return heap strings. Several didactyl sites currently pass raw 32-byte keys. Each
+  migrated site needs a small hex-encode + free adaptation. Mechanical but touches
+  many files — Phase 3 step 3/4 is the bulk of the work.

+# Remove Dead DM-History Helper Functions in `agent.c`
+
+## Background
+
+While investigating how Didactyl maintains continuity across a DM "chat session", two functions in [`src/agent.c`](../src/agent.c) were found to be compiled-but-unreferenced, marked with `__attribute__((unused))` to suppress compiler warnings:
+
+- [`append_recent_admin_dm_history`](../src/agent.c:1065)
+- [`build_recent_admin_dm_history_messages`](../src/agent.c:1800) (wraps the above)
+
+These were part of an older design where the agent automatically injected the last N admin DM turns into every LLM call. The current architecture is **skill-driven**: DM history only reaches the LLM when an adopted, triggered skill explicitly pulls it in via the `{{dm_history}}` / `{{nostr_dm_history(...)}}` template variables or the `nostr_dm_history` tool (see [`tool_agent.c`](../src/tools/tool_agent.c:284) and [`tools_schema.c`](../src/tools/tools_schema.c:1606)). The dead functions are now a source of confusion for anyone reading the code to understand chat-session behavior.
+
+## Goal
+
+Remove the dead functions and any symbols used exclusively by them, without changing runtime behavior.
+
+## Scope Analysis (verified before planning)
+
+A repo-wide search for each symbol confirmed the following:
+
+| Symbol | Only callers | Disposition |
+|---|---|---|
+| [`append_recent_admin_dm_history`](../src/agent.c:1065) | called by `build_recent_admin_dm_history_messages` (also dead) | **delete** |
+| [`build_recent_admin_dm_history_messages`](../src/agent.c:1800) | no callers | **delete** |
+| [`AGENT_HISTORY_TURNS`](../src/agent.c:38) | referenced only inside the dead `append_recent_admin_dm_history` | **delete** |
+| [`AGENT_HISTORY_QUERY_LIMIT`](../src/agent.c:39) | defined but zero references repo-wide | **delete** |
+| [`append_simple_message`](../src/agent.c:187) | many live callers throughout `agent.c` | **keep** |
+| [`nostr_handler_get_dm_history_json`](../src/nostr_handler.c:4384) | live via [`tool_agent.c`](../src/tools/tool_agent.c:318) | **keep** |
+
+No non-source references (Makefile, tests, docs) depend on these symbols.
+
+## Risks
+
+Very low. Both functions carry `__attribute__((unused))` so they are not linked into any runtime path. The only failure modes are accidental deletion of something still live, which the scope analysis above rules out.
+
+## Verification Strategy
+
+1. Clean build with `make` — must succeed with no new warnings.
+2. Existing tests under [`tests/`](../tests/) pass (`python tests/run_tests.py` or the project's usual invocation).
+3. Manual sanity check: start an agent, send a DM, confirm normal reply — no regression, since the deleted code was never on the hot path.

+
+The documentation in [`docs/CONTEXT.md`](../docs/CONTEXT.md) already describes the skill-driven assembly model correctly, but neither that file nor [`docs/SKILLS.md`](../docs/SKILLS.md) explicitly states "DM history is not automatic — it only appears when a skill references it." A brief clarifying paragraph could be added in a separate change.

+# Remove Role Markers from Skill Content
+
+## Summary
+
+Skill content should always be **system-role instructions** — pure markdown. The `system:`, `user:`, and `assistant:` role markers should not appear in skill content authored by users or the LLM agent.
+
+The runtime already handles `user:` injection internally (appending the DM message or trigger event as the user message). Skill authors writing `user:` in their content is either redundant or creates conflicts (double `user:` markers).
+
+## What Changes
+
+### Principle
+
+- **Skill content = system instructions.** Always. No role markers.
+- **The runtime owns role assignment.** It injects `user:` before the actual input (DM, trigger event).
+- **`context_roles_split()` stays** — the runtime still uses it internally to split the assembled markdown (which includes the runtime-injected `user:` marker) into API messages.
+
+### Files to Change
+
+#### Documentation
+
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `docs/SKILLS.md` | Remove role markers from skill content spec and examples. Clarify that skill content is always system instructions. |
+| `docs/CONTEXT.md` | Clarify that `user:` is injected by the runtime, not by skill authors. Update examples. |
+| `docs/TOOLS.md` | Remove role marker references from `skill_create` and `skill_edit` descriptions. |
+
+#### Source Code
+
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `src/tools/tools_schema.c` | Remove role marker references from `skill_create` and `skill_edit` tool descriptions and parameter descriptions. |
+| `src/context_roles.c` | **No change** — still needed for runtime-level `user:` splitting. |
+| `src/context_roles.h` | **No change**. |
+| `src/agent.c` | **No change** — already injects `user:` correctly. |
+
+#### Web Pages
+
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `~/lt/client-ndk/www/skills-edit.html` | Remove `system:`/`user:`/`assistant:` syntax highlighting from the editor overlay. Update placeholder text. |
+
+#### Plans (historical docs, lower priority)
+
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `plans/skills_edit_page.md` | Remove role marker references from content description and highlighting spec. |
+| `plans/markdown_context_window.md` | Update role marker section to clarify runtime-only usage. |
+| `plans/example_context.md` | Update examples to show skill content without role markers. |
+| `plans/example_context_v2.md` | Update examples to show skill content without role markers. |
+| `plans/skills_demo_page.md` | Update template examples to remove `system:`/`user:` from skill templates. |
+
+### What Does NOT Change
+
+- **`context_roles_split()`** — The runtime still assembles a full markdown string with `user:` injected at the boundary, then splits it. This is an internal runtime mechanism, not a skill authoring concern.
+- **skills-tv.html** — This is a separate client-side execution model that builds its own messages array. It can keep its `system:`/`user:` template format since it is not going through the Didactyl agent. However, it could be simplified later.
+- **DM history** — Already uses proper role assignment in the messages array, not role markers.
+
+## Detailed Changes
+
+### docs/SKILLS.md
+
+**Before:**
+```json
+{
+  "content": "system:\n## Spelling and Grammar Checker\n\nYou are a spelling and grammar checker.\n\n### Rules\n...\n\nuser:\n{{message}}"
+}
+```
+
+**After:**
+```json
+{
+  "content": "## Spelling and Grammar Checker\n\nYou are a spelling and grammar checker.\n\n### Rules\n..."
+}
+```
+
+Remove the bullet points about role markers. Add a note:
+
+> Skill content is always system-role instructions. The runtime handles user message injection (DM content, trigger events) automatically. Do not include `system:`, `user:`, or `assistant:` markers in skill content.
+
+### src/tools/tools_schema.c
+
+**skill_create description** — Remove "use role markers (system:/user:/assistant:) at line start when needed; unmarked content defaults to system."
+
+Replace with: "Write content as markdown system instructions. The runtime handles user message injection. Prefer ## for top-level sections."
+
+**skill_create content param** — Remove "May include role markers at line start (system:/user:/assistant:)"
+
+Replace with: "Markdown system instructions for the skill. May include markdown headings/lists/code fences and template variables."
+
+Same pattern for **skill_edit**.
+
+### skills-edit.html
+
+Remove the `.hl-role` CSS class and the regex that highlights `system:`, `user:`, `assistant:` in the editor overlay. Update the textarea placeholder from `system:\nYou are...\n\nuser:\n{{message}}` to just `## My Skill\n\nYou are a helpful assistant.\n\nRespond to {{message}} with...`.

+# Run Skill Architecture — Tradeoff Analysis
+
+## The Question
+
+Skills today are **adopted** — their content is injected into the agent's context window for every matching trigger. This is "always on" and costs context tokens on every LLM call, even when the skill's capability isn't needed.
+
+What if an agent could **use a skill once and be done with it** — like calling a tool?
+
+Two approaches exist. This document analyzes both.
+
+---
+
+## Approach A: Sub-Invocation (Separate LLM Call)
+
+**Concept:** A `skill_run` tool that spins up an entirely separate LLM execution with the skill's instructions as the system prompt, runs its own tool loop to completion, and returns the result to the calling context.
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    participant Admin
+    participant Agent as Agent - Main Context
+    participant SkillRun as skill_run Executor
+    participant LLM2 as LLM - Skill Context
+
+    Admin->>Agent: Hey, summarize this thread
+    Agent->>Agent: I need the summarize-thread skill
+    Agent->>SkillRun: skill_run d_tag=summarize-thread, args=thread_id
+    SkillRun->>SkillRun: Fetch skill content from Nostr
+    SkillRun->>SkillRun: Build isolated context window
+    SkillRun->>LLM2: System: skill instructions, User: args
+    LLM2->>SkillRun: Tool calls + reasoning
+    SkillRun->>SkillRun: Execute tool loop to completion
+    LLM2->>SkillRun: Final text response
+    SkillRun->>Agent: Return result as tool output
+    Agent->>Admin: Here is the summary...
+```
+
+### How It Works
+
+1. The LLM in the main conversation calls `skill_run` with a `d_tag` (or full `kind:pubkey:d_tag` address) and `args`
+2. The runtime fetches the skill event from Nostr (or adopted skills cache)
+3. A **new, isolated context window** is built:
+   - System prompt = skill content (with `{{...}}` template variables resolved)
+   - User message = the `args` parameter
+   - Tools = the skill's `requires_tool` tags (or full tool set for own skills)
+   - LLM config = the skill's `llm`, `temperature`, `max_tokens` tags (or agent defaults)
+4. A **separate tool loop** runs (same pattern as [`agent_on_trigger()`](src/agent.c:1696))
+5. The final LLM text response is returned as the `skill_run` tool result
+6. The calling context continues with that result
+
+### Advantages
+
+| Advantage | Detail |
+|-----------|--------|
+| **Zero context cost when idle** | The skill's instructions never enter the main context window unless invoked |
+| **Isolation** | The skill runs in its own context — it can't see or interfere with the main conversation |
+| **Per-skill model** | Each skill can use a different LLM model/provider via its `llm` tag |
+| **Sandboxing** | External skills can be restricted to safe tools only |
+| **Composability** | Skills can call other skills via nested `skill_run` (with depth limits) |
+| **Try-before-adopt** | Run someone else's skill once without permanently adopting it |
+| **Clean separation** | The skill is a black box — input in, result out |
+
+### Disadvantages

+| Disadvantage | Detail |
+|--------------|--------|
+| **Extra LLM call** | Every `skill_run` invocation costs at least one additional LLM API call (possibly more if the skill uses tools) |
+| **Latency** | The main conversation blocks while the sub-invocation runs its tool loop |
+| **No shared context** | The skill doesn't know about the ongoing conversation — it only sees its `args` |
+| **Complexity** | Requires managing nested execution contexts, preventing infinite recursion, handling timeouts |
+| **Token overhead** | The skill's system prompt is paid for separately — no sharing with the main context |
+
+### Existing Design
+
+This approach is already designed in detail in [`plans/tool_orchestration.md`](plans/tool_orchestration.md) as the `skill_run` tool (Section 2B), including:
+- Schema definition
+- Execution flow with sandbox for external skills
+- Tool safety classification
+- `/run` slash command for admin direct invocation
+
+---
+
+## Approach B: Lazy Injection (On-Demand Context Loading)
+
+**Concept:** A `skill_load` tool that fetches a skill's content and injects it into the **current** context window mid-conversation. The LLM then uses those instructions in subsequent reasoning within the same call.
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    participant Admin
+    participant Agent as Agent - Single Context
+    participant LLM as LLM
+
+    Admin->>Agent: Hey, summarize this thread
+    Agent->>LLM: System + User message
+    LLM->>Agent: I need the summarize-thread skill. Call skill_load.
+    Agent->>Agent: Fetch skill content, append to messages
+    Agent->>LLM: ...previous messages + skill content as new system message
+    LLM->>Agent: Now executing with skill instructions in context...
+    Agent->>Admin: Here is the summary...
+```
+
+### How It Works
+
+1. The LLM calls `skill_load` with a `d_tag`
+2. The runtime fetches the skill content
+3. The skill content is returned as the tool result (or injected as a new system message)
+4. The LLM continues in the **same context window**, now with the skill instructions available
+5. No separate LLM call — the skill instructions become part of the ongoing conversation
+
+### Advantages
+
+| Advantage | Detail |
+|-----------|--------|
+| **No extra LLM call** | The skill instructions are loaded into the current context — no sub-invocation overhead |
+| **Shared context** | The skill has full access to the conversation history and can reason about it |
+| **Lower latency** | No separate tool loop — the LLM just continues with more information |
+| **Simpler implementation** | Just fetch content and return it as a tool result — no nested execution management |
+| **Natural flow** | The LLM decides when it needs more instructions and loads them dynamically |
+
+### Disadvantages
+
+| Disadvantage | Detail |
+|--------------|--------|
+| **Context window cost** | Once loaded, the skill content stays in the context for the rest of the conversation |
+| **No isolation** | The skill instructions mix with everything else — potential for instruction conflicts |
+| **No per-skill model** | The skill runs on whatever model the current conversation is using |
+| **No sandboxing** | The skill's instructions execute with full tool access (same as the main context) |
+| **Accumulation** | Loading multiple skills grows the context window — could hit token limits |
+| **No clean boundary** | The LLM might partially follow skill instructions or blend them with other context |
+
+### Implementation
+
+This is essentially what `skill_get` already does — it returns skill content. The difference would be:
+- `skill_get` returns metadata + content as a JSON blob for the LLM to read
+- `skill_load` would inject the content as a system-level instruction that the LLM should follow
+
+In practice, the LLM can already do this today by calling `skill_get` and then reasoning about the returned content. The question is whether a dedicated `skill_load` tool that injects content at the system level would be meaningfully different.
+
+---
+
+## Approach C: Hybrid — Both, With Different Use Cases
+
+The two approaches serve different needs and are not mutually exclusive:
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    A[Agent needs a skill capability] --> B{What kind of need?}
+    B -->|One-shot task with clear input/output| C[skill_run - Sub-invocation]
+    B -->|Need skill knowledge in ongoing conversation| D[skill_load - Lazy injection]
+    B -->|Always need this skill| E[skill_adopt - Permanent adoption]
+
+    C --> F[Isolated execution, result returned]
+    D --> G[Instructions loaded into current context]
+    E --> H[Instructions in every matching trigger context]
+
+    style C fill:#e1f5fe
+    style D fill:#fff3e0
+    style E fill:#e8f5e9
+```
+
+### When to Use Each
+
+| Scenario | Best Approach | Why |
+|----------|--------------|-----|
+| Run a friend's skill to try it | `skill_run` | Isolation + sandbox for untrusted code |
+| Spell-check this message | `skill_run` | Clear input/output, no conversation context needed |
+| Deploy my website | `skill_run` | Task-oriented, uses different tools, benefits from isolation |
+| I need to know the formatting rules for Nostr posts | `skill_load` | Reference material for the current conversation |
+| Help me write a skill (load the skill-authoring guide) | `skill_load` | The LLM needs the instructions as ongoing context |
+| Always respond in a certain personality | `skill_adopt` | Needed in every conversation |
+
+### The Key Distinction
+
+- **`skill_run`** = "Do this task for me and give me the result" (function call semantics)
+- **`skill_load`** = "Teach me how to do this so I can do it myself" (knowledge injection)
+- **`skill_adopt`** = "I always need to know this" (permanent context)
+
+---
+
+## Relationship to Existing Architecture
+
+### Chain Triggers vs skill_run
+
+[Chain triggers](plans/multi_model_skill_pipelines.md) already provide sequential skill execution — Skill A completes, then Skill B fires. But chains are **pre-configured** (declared in skill tags) and **event-driven** (fire automatically).
+
+`skill_run` is **dynamic** — the LLM decides at runtime which skill to invoke based on the conversation. It's the difference between a cron job and a function call.
+
+### Maturity Levels
+
+The [`tool_orchestration.md`](plans/tool_orchestration.md) plan defines three maturity levels that apply to `skill_run`:
+
+| Level | Execution | LLM? |
+|-------|-----------|------|
+| `draft` | LLM interprets skill instructions | Yes |
+| `guided` | LLM with forced tool_choice | Yes, constrained |
+| `hardened` | Deterministic step executor | No |
+
+A `hardened` skill via `skill_run` is essentially a **tool** — no LLM call, just sequential tool execution. This is the ultimate "skill as tool" pattern.
+
+### Recursive skill_run
+
+`skill_run` can call `skill_run` (a skill invokes another skill). This needs a depth limit (like the chain depth limit of 5 in [`trigger_manager_fire_chains()`](src/trigger_manager.c)). Each level gets its own context window and tool loop.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Considerations
+
+### For skill_run (Sub-Invocation)
+
+The core implementation reuses the existing [`agent_on_trigger()`](src/agent.c:1696) pattern:
+
+1. **New function:** `execute_skill_run()` in [`tool_skill.c`](src/tools/tool_skill.c)
+2. **Context building:** Reuse [`build_context_from_triggers()`](src/agent.c) pattern but for a single skill
+3. **Tool loop:** Same pattern as `agent_on_trigger()` — call LLM, execute tools, repeat
+4. **LLM config:** Save/restore pattern from [`apply_trigger_runtime_to_llm_config()`](src/trigger_manager.c)
+5. **Sandbox:** Filter tools array based on skill origin (own vs external)
+6. **Depth tracking:** Static or thread-local counter to prevent infinite recursion
+7. **Result capture:** Capture the final LLM text response and return it as the tool result
+
+### For skill_load (Lazy Injection)
+
+Minimal new code needed:
+
+1. **New tool:** `skill_load` in [`tool_skill.c`](src/tools/tool_skill.c)
+2. **Fetch:** Same as `skill_get` — fetch skill content from cache or Nostr
+3. **Return:** Return the skill content as the tool result with a wrapper indicating these are instructions to follow
+4. **Alternative:** Inject as a system message in the messages array (requires access to the messages array from within tool execution, which the current architecture doesn't support)
+
+The simpler version (return as tool result) works today with minimal changes. The LLM receives the skill content as a tool response and can reason about it. The more sophisticated version (system message injection) would require architectural changes to how tools interact with the message array.
+
+---
+
+## Approach D: Modes — Skill Packages as Agent Personalities
+
+### The Roo Code Parallel
+
+Roo Code has **modes** — Architect, Code, Ask, Debug — each with its own:
+- System prompt / personality
+- Set of allowed tools
+- File access restrictions
+- Model preferences
+
+A mode is essentially a **curated bundle of capabilities** that the agent switches into. You don't load the Architect's planning instructions into the Code mode's context — you *switch modes entirely*.
+
+This maps directly onto Didactyl's skill system.
+
+### Modes as Skill Packages
+
+A **mode** is a named collection of skills that, when activated, replaces the agent's current context window composition. It's a different adoption list — a different set of Layer 1 skills, different tools, potentially a different LLM model.
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    A[Agent receives /mode architect] --> B[Look up mode: architect]
+    B --> C[Mode defines skills: planning, analysis, design-patterns]
+    C --> D[Mode defines model: best]
+    C --> E[Mode defines tools: memory_*, nostr_query, skill_search]
+    D --> F[Reconfigure agent context for this session]
+    E --> F
+    F --> G[Agent now operates as Architect]
+    G --> H[All subsequent messages use architect context]
+```
+
+### Mode Definition as a Skill
+
+A mode is itself a skill — a meta-skill that declares which other skills compose it:
+
+```json
+{
+  "kind": 31123,
+  "content": "You are operating in Architect mode.\n\nYour role is to plan, design, and analyze before implementation.\n- Break down complex problems into clear steps\n- Create technical specifications\n- Design system architecture\n- Do NOT write implementation code\n\n{{identity}}\n{{planning-guidelines}}",
+  "tags": [
+    ["d", "mode-architect"],
+    ["description", "Architect mode - planning and design"],
+    ["mode", "architect"],
+    ["llm", "best"],
+    ["temperature", "0.7"],
+    ["requires_skill", "identity"],
+    ["requires_skill", "planning-guidelines"],
+    ["requires_tool", "memory_save"],
+    ["requires_tool", "memory_recall"],
+    ["requires_tool", "nostr_query"],
+    ["requires_tool", "skill_search"],
+    ["requires_tool", "skill_list"]
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "kind": 31123,
+  "content": "You are operating in Cheap mode.\n\nYou are a fast, cost-effective assistant.\n- Answer questions directly and concisely\n- Use minimal tokens\n- Do not over-explain\n\n{{identity}}",
+  "tags": [
+    ["d", "mode-cheap"],
+    ["description", "Cheap mode - fast answers with inexpensive model"],
+    ["mode", "cheap"],
+    ["llm", "openai/gpt-4o-mini, cheap"],
+    ["temperature", "0.3"],
+    ["max_tokens", "500"],
+    ["requires_skill", "identity"],
+    ["requires_tool", "nostr_query"],
+    ["requires_tool", "memory_recall"]
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### How Modes Interact with skill_run
+
+Your example — `/skill_run cheap "how many files are in the directory"` — reveals two distinct use cases:
+
+**1. One-shot mode invocation (`skill_run`):**
+Run a single task using a mode's configuration, then return to normal. The mode's model, tools, and personality apply for just that one execution.
+
+```
+/skill_run mode-cheap "how many files are in the directory"
+```
+
+This uses the `skill_run` sub-invocation pattern: spin up an isolated context with the `mode-cheap` skill's instructions, use its `llm` tag (cheap model), execute the tool loop, return the result. The main conversation continues unchanged.
+
+**2. Persistent mode switch (`/mode`):**
+Switch the agent's operating mode for all subsequent messages until switched again.
+
+```
+/mode architect
+> Now operating in Architect mode. Using best model. Planning tools available.
+
+/mode cheap
+> Now operating in Cheap mode. Using gpt-4o-mini. Minimal tool set.
+
+/mode default
+> Restored default mode.
+```
+
+This changes which skills compose the agent's context window for DM conversations. Instead of the normal adoption-list-order composition, the mode's skill set takes over.
+
+### Mode Architecture
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    subgraph Current Architecture
+        A[Adoption List - kind 10123] --> B[All adopted skills with dm trigger]
+        B --> C[Context window for every DM]
+    end
+
+    subgraph Mode Architecture
+        D[Adoption List - kind 10123] --> E{Active mode?}
+        E -->|No mode| F[Default: all adopted dm-triggered skills]
+        E -->|Mode active| G[Mode skill + its requires_skill dependencies]
+        F --> H[Context window]
+        G --> H
+    end
+
+    subgraph Mode Lifecycle
+        I[/mode architect] --> J[Set active mode = mode-architect]
+        J --> K[Subsequent DMs use architect context]
+        K --> L[/mode default]
+        L --> M[Clear active mode, restore normal]
+    end
+```
+
+### The Three Invocation Patterns (Updated)
+
+| Pattern | Command | Context | Persists? | Model |
+|---------|---------|---------|-----------|-------|
+| **Adopted skills** | *(automatic)* | All matching skills in adoption list | Always | Agent default |
+| **One-shot skill** | `/skill_run d_tag args` | Isolated sub-invocation | No | Skill's `llm` tag |
+| **Mode switch** | `/mode name` | Mode's skill set replaces DM context | Until changed | Mode's `llm` tag |
+| **One-shot mode** | `/skill_run mode-name args` | Isolated sub-invocation with mode config | No | Mode's `llm` tag |
+
+### Mode Storage
+
+The active mode is ephemeral runtime state — not persisted to Nostr. It's a session concept:
+
+```c
+// In agent.c or a new mode_manager
+static char g_active_mode_d_tag[TRIGGER_SKILL_D_TAG_MAX] = {0};  // empty = default mode
+
+void agent_set_mode(const char* mode_d_tag);  // NULL or empty = clear mode
+const char* agent_get_mode(void);
+```
+
+When a mode is active, [`build_context_from_triggers()`](src/agent.c) checks the mode skill first instead of scanning all DM-triggered skills. The mode skill's `requires_skill` tags define which other skills are included (Layer 2).
+
+### Mode Discovery
+
+Modes are just skills with a `["mode", "name"]` tag. They're discoverable the same way:
+
+```
+/skill_search mode                    # find all mode skills
+/skill_run mode-architect "plan X"    # try a mode one-shot
+/mode architect                       # switch to it persistently
+```
+
+Since modes are Nostr events, they're **shareable**. Someone publishes a "code-reviewer" mode with specific skills, model preferences, and tool restrictions. You adopt it and `/mode code-reviewer` to activate it.
+
+### Relationship to Roo Code Modes
+
+| Roo Code | Didactyl Equivalent |
+|----------|-------------------|
+| Mode definition (`.roomodes`) | Skill event with `["mode", "name"]` tag |
+| Mode's system prompt | Skill content (markdown instructions) |
+| Mode's allowed tools | `["requires_tool", "..."]` tags |
+| Mode's file restrictions | `["requires_tool", "local_file_read"]` presence/absence |
+| Mode's model | `["llm", "..."]` tag |
+| `/mode architect` | `/mode architect` |
+| Mode switching | `/mode name` slash command |
+| Custom modes | Create a skill with `["mode", "name"]` tag |
+
+The key difference: Roo Code modes are local config files. Didactyl modes are **Nostr events** — portable, shareable, discoverable, and adoptable across agents.
+
+---
+
+## Modes vs. Multiple Agents
+
+### The Tradeoff
+
+Instead of switching one agent between Architect and Coder modes, you could run two separate agents — one Architect, one Coder. Each has its own nsec, its own skills, its own model. This is already possible today with no code changes.
+
+| Dimension | Modes (one agent) | Multiple Agents (separate binaries) |
+|-----------|-------------------|-------------------------------------|
+| **Resource cost** | One process, one relay connection, one LLM config | N processes, N relay connections, N LLM configs |
+| **Context isolation** | Mode switch replaces context; previous mode's state is lost | Each agent has its own persistent context and memory |
+| **Shared memory** | Same agent = same memory store. Architect's notes are available to Coder. | Separate agents = separate memory. Must explicitly share via Nostr events. |
+| **Conversation continuity** | Mode switch mid-conversation is seamless — same DM thread | Different agents = different DM threads. Admin must context-switch. |
+| **Identity** | One npub. External observers see one entity. | N npubs. Each agent is a distinct Nostr identity. |
+| **Specialization depth** | Mode is a context overlay — personality + tools + model. Shallow specialization. | Full agent is deeply specialized — its own memories, its own learned patterns, its own social graph. |
+| **Operational complexity** | One binary, one systemd service, one genesis config | N binaries, N services, N configs, N API keys |
+| **Failure blast radius** | Agent crashes = all modes unavailable | One agent crashes = others still running |
+| **Skill sharing** | All modes share the same adoption list (modes just filter it) | Each agent has its own adoption list |
+| **Admin UX** | `/mode architect` — instant switch | DM a different npub — requires client support or manual switching |
+
+### When Modes Win
+
+- **Quick context switching** — "plan this, then code it" in one conversation
+- **Shared state** — the Architect's plan is in memory when you switch to Coder mode
+- **Low overhead** — one process, one set of relay connections
+- **Simple admin UX** — `/mode architect`, `/mode coder`, done
+- **Cost control** — `/mode cheap` for quick questions, `/mode deep` for complex analysis
+
+### When Separate Agents Win
+
+- **Deep specialization** — an agent that has spent weeks learning about your codebase vs. one that knows your financial data. These are fundamentally different knowledge bases.
+- **Different trust boundaries** — one agent has shell access, another only has Nostr access
+- **Different LLM providers** — one on Anthropic, one on OpenAI, one on local Ollama
+- **Concurrent operation** — both agents working simultaneously on different tasks
+- **Fault isolation** — one agent's crash doesn't affect the other
+- **Team simulation** — the admin can DM the Architect to plan, then DM the Coder to implement, and each agent maintains its own persistent context about its domain
+
+### The Hybrid: Modes + Clones
+
+The most powerful pattern combines both:
+
+1. **Start with one agent** with modes for quick context switching
+2. **Clone it** (via [`agent_clone`](plans/agent_clone.md)) when you need deep specialization
+3. **Specialize the clone** — different skills, different model, different tools
+4. **Use modes within each clone** for further flexibility
+
+```
+Admin's Agent Fleet:
+├── Agent Alpha (generalist)
+│   ├── /mode architect  — planning
+│   ├── /mode coder      — implementation
+│   └── /mode cheap      — quick questions
+├── Agent Beta (clone, specialized: infrastructure)
+│   ├── /mode deploy     — deployment workflows
+│   └── /mode monitor    — system monitoring
+└── Agent Gamma (clone, specialized: content)
+    ├── /mode writer     — long-form content
+    └── /mode social     — Nostr social engagement

+
+## Multi-Agent Didactyl: What Would It Take?
+
+### Current Single-Agent Architecture
+
+The codebase is deeply single-agent. Global state is everywhere:
+
+| Global | File | Purpose |
+|--------|------|---------|
+| `static didactyl_config_t* g_cfg` | [`agent.c`](src/agent.c:27), [`nostr_handler.c`](src/nostr_handler.c:22) | Agent config including keys |
+| `static tools_context_t g_tools_ctx` | [`agent.c`](src/agent.c:28) | Tool execution context |
+| `static trigger_manager* g_trigger_manager` | [`agent.c`](src/agent.c:29) | Trigger state |
+| `static nostr_relay_pool_t* g_pool` | [`nostr_handler.c`](src/nostr_handler.c:23) | Single relay pool |
+| `static llm_config_t g_cfg` | [`llm.c`](src/llm.c:20) | LLM configuration |
+| `static char* g_admin_kind0_json` | [`nostr_handler.c`](src/nostr_handler.c:34) | Admin context cache |
+| `static char* g_agent_kind0_json` | [`nostr_handler.c`](src/nostr_handler.c:47) | Agent self-context cache |
+| `static char* g_memory_plain` | [`tool_memory.c`](src/tools/tool_memory.c:20) | Agent memory |
+| 20+ `pthread_mutex_t` globals | Various | Thread safety for all the above |
+
+Every module assumes there is exactly one agent identity, one relay pool, one LLM config, one admin, one set of keys. The keys are used directly via `g_cfg->keys.private_key` in ~40 places across [`nostr_handler.c`](src/nostr_handler.c) for signing, encrypting, and decrypting.
+
+### Three Paths to Multi-Agent
+
+#### Path 1: Multiple Processes (Current — No Code Changes)
+
+Run N separate Didactyl binaries, each with its own genesis config and nsec. This is what [`DECENTRALIZED_DIDACTYL.md`](plans/DECENTRALIZED_DIDACTYL.md) describes.
+
+**Pros:** Works today. Zero code changes. Full isolation.
+**Cons:** N × resource cost. N × operational complexity. No shared state.
+
+```
+Server
+├── /home/didactyl-architect/  (systemd: didactyl-architect.service)
+│   ├── genesis.jsonc          (nsec1..., model: best)
+│   └── didactyl               (binary)
+├── /home/didactyl-coder/      (systemd: didactyl-coder.service)
+│   ├── genesis.jsonc          (nsec2..., model: fast)
+│   └── didactyl               (binary)
+└── /home/didactyl-cheap/      (systemd: didactyl-cheap.service)
+    ├── genesis.jsonc          (nsec3..., model: cheap)
+    └── didactyl               (binary)
+```
+
+#### Path 2: Multi-Agent Single Process (Major Refactor)
+
+Refactor all global state into an `agent_instance_t` struct. Run multiple agent instances in one process, sharing the relay pool and HTTP server.
+
+**What changes:**
+
+```c
+typedef struct agent_instance {
+    didactyl_config_t config;
+    tools_context_t tools_ctx;
+    trigger_manager_t trigger_manager;
+    llm_config_t llm_config;
+    // ... all per-agent state
+} agent_instance_t;
+
+// Instead of:
+static didactyl_config_t* g_cfg;
+// Becomes:
+agent_instance_t* agents;
+int agent_count;
+```
+
+**Scope of refactor:**
+- Every function that touches `g_cfg`, `g_tools_ctx`, `g_trigger_manager`, or any global state needs an `agent_instance_t*` parameter
+- [`nostr_handler.c`](src/nostr_handler.c) — the largest file (~4500 lines) — uses `g_cfg->keys` in ~40 places. Every signing, encryption, and subscription call needs to know which agent's keys to use.
+- [`llm.c`](src/llm.c) — the global `g_cfg` LLM config needs to become per-instance
+- [`agent.c`](src/agent.c) — all context building, message handling, tool loops need per-instance state
+- DM routing — incoming DMs need to be dispatched to the correct agent based on the `#p` tag
+- The HTTP API needs agent-scoped endpoints (`/api/agents/:id/prompt`, etc.)
+
+**Estimated scope:** Touch every `.c` file. ~2000-3000 lines of refactoring. High risk of regressions.
+
+**Pros:** Shared relay pool (fewer connections). Shared HTTP server. Single process to manage.
+**Cons:** Massive refactor. High regression risk. Shared-process failure mode (one agent's crash kills all).
+
+#### Path 3: Multi-Agent via Modes (Minimal Code — Recommended First Step)
+
+Modes give you 80% of the multi-agent benefit with 5% of the effort:
+
+- **Different personality per mode** — mode skill content
+- **Different model per mode** — mode's `llm` tag
+- **Different tools per mode** — mode's `requires_tool` tags
+- **Different temperature per mode** — mode's `temperature` tag
+- **Instant switching** — `/mode architect`
+- **Shared memory** — same agent, same memory store
+- **Shared identity** — same npub, same social graph
+
+What you lose vs. true multi-agent:
+- No concurrent operation (one mode at a time)
+- No independent persistent context per mode
+- No fault isolation between modes
+
+**This is the Roo Code model** — and it works extremely well for the single-admin use case.
+
+### Recommendation

+    style H fill:#ffebee
+```
+
+1. **Now:** Implement modes (skill packages). This covers the "Architect vs Coder" use case with minimal code.
+2. **When needed:** Run multiple Didactyl processes for true concurrent agents. Already works, just operational overhead.
+3. **If justified:** Multi-agent single-process refactor. Only if you're running 5+ agents on one server and the resource overhead matters.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Layers
+
+The features build on each other in this order:
+
+### Layer 1: `skill_run` (Sub-Invocation)
+Already designed in [`tool_orchestration.md`](plans/tool_orchestration.md). This is the foundation — an isolated LLM execution of any skill. Enables one-shot skill usage, external skill testing, and sandboxing.
+
+**Enables:** `/skill_run cheap "how many files are in the directory"`
+
+### Layer 2: Slash Commands
+Also in [`tool_orchestration.md`](plans/tool_orchestration.md). Direct tool execution via `/tool_name args`. Required for `/mode` and `/skill_run` as admin commands.
+
+**Enables:** `/skill_run`, `/mode`, `/help`
+
+### Layer 3: Modes
+Mode skills with `["mode", "name"]` tags. `/mode` slash command to switch. Runtime tracks active mode and adjusts context composition.
+
+**Enables:** `/mode architect`, `/mode cheap`, persistent mode switching
+
+### Layer 4: Hardened Skills
+Deterministic step executor for skills that don't need LLM reasoning. A mode could include hardened skills as tools.
+
+**Enables:** Skills that execute as pure tool sequences — zero LLM cost
+
+---
+
+## Recommendation
+
+Implement in this order:
+
+1. **`skill_run`** (sub-invocation) — the foundation. Already designed. Enables one-shot skill execution with isolated context, per-skill model, and sandboxing.
+
+2. **Slash commands** (`/skill_run`, `/help`) — admin direct invocation. Required for the mode UX.
+
+3. **Modes** (`/mode name`) — skill packages that reconfigure the agent's context. Builds on `skill_run` for one-shot mode usage and slash commands for persistent switching.
+
+4. **Hardened skill execution** — deterministic tool sequences. The ultimate "skill as tool" pattern with zero LLM cost.

+# Skills Editor Page — `skills-edit.html`
+
+## Overview
+
+A standalone web page in `~/lt/client-ndk/www/` for editing Didactyl agent skills. Built on top of [`template.html`](../../client-ndk/www/template.html) — all existing template functionality (auth, sidenav, hamburger, relay status, footer, theme toggle, logout) remains intact.
+
+The logged-in user IS the agent. The page uses Nostr subscriptions via the NDK worker to fetch skills and the adoption list, and publishes events via `publishEvent()` to save/adopt/remove skills.
+
+---
+
+## Data Model
+
+### Nostr Event Kinds
+
+| Kind | Purpose | Replaceable? |
+|------|---------|-------------|
+| `31123` | Public skill definition | Yes, by d-tag |
+| `31124` | Private skill definition (NIP-44 encrypted content) | Yes, by d-tag |
+| `10123` | Skill adoption list | Yes, single per pubkey |
+
+### Skill Event Structure
+
+```

+
+### Left Column — Skills List (~20% width)
+
+- **Search input** at top to filter skills by slug/description
+- **Filter tabs**: My | Public | Adopted
+  - **My**: skills authored by the current pubkey (kind 31123 + 31124)
+  - **Public**: public skills from anyone (kind 31123 only, no author filter) — for discovery and copying
+  - **Adopted**: skills currently in the kind 10123 adoption list
+- **Scrollable skill list**: each item shows slug, description snippet, author name/short-pubkey, ★ if adopted
+- Clicking a skill loads it into the editor
+- **Copy/Fork button**: when viewing a public skill from another author, a "Copy to My Skills" button creates a new skill under the current pubkey with the same content (new d-tag to avoid collision)
+- **Adopted Skills section** below the list:
+  - Shows current adoption list entries in order
+  - Drag-to-reorder support (or up/down buttons)
+  - Visual indicator of adoption order
+
+### Center Column — Skill Editor (~60% width)
+
+- **Metadata row**: slug (d-tag), description inputs
+- **Trigger row**: trigger type dropdown, filter input
+- **Execution params row**: llm input, temperature, max_tokens, seed
+- **Requirements display**: shows current requires_tool, requires_skill, optional_tool tags as removable chips/badges
+- **Large textarea** for skill content (markdown template)
+  - Syntax highlighting overlay for `{{variable_names}}` in accent color
+  - Tool name references highlighted when they match known tools
+- **Action buttons**:
+  - Save (publish as kind 31123)
+  - Save Private (publish as kind 31124 with NIP-44 encryption)
+  - New Skill (clear editor)
+  - Adopt (add to kind 10123 list)
+  - Remove from Adopted (remove from kind 10123 list)
+  - Delete Skill (kind 5 deletion event)
+
+### Right Column — Tools List (~20% width)
+
+- **Hardcoded list** of all Didactyl tools from TOOLS.md
+- Each tool shows name and brief description
+- **Double-click** a tool to add it as a `requires_tool` tag on the current skill
+- Visual indicator if tool is already required by current skill
+- Search/filter input at top
+
+---
+
+## Syntax Highlighting Approach
+
+Use a transparent overlay `<div>` positioned exactly over the `<textarea>`. The textarea has transparent text color; the overlay div renders the same text with highlighted spans. Both scroll together.
+
+Highlighted elements:
+- `{{variable_name}}` — accent color (e.g., `var(--accent-color)`)
+- Tool names (when matching known tools) — distinct highlight color
+
+---
+
+## Nostr Subscriptions
+
+### On page load (after auth):
+
+1. **My skills subscription**: `{ kinds: [31123, 31124], authors: [currentPubkey], limit: 200 }` — fetch agent's own skills (public + private)
+2. **Public skills subscription** (when Public filter active): `{ kinds: [31123], limit: 200 }` — fetch public skills from anyone for discovery/copying
+3. **Adoption list subscription**: `{ kinds: [10123], authors: [currentPubkey], limit: 1 }` — fetch current adoption list
+
+The Public subscription is activated on demand when the user switches to the Public tab, to avoid fetching large amounts of data unnecessarily. My skills and adoption list are always loaded.
+
+### Event handling:
+
+- `ndkEvent` listener processes incoming skill events and adoption list events
+- Skills are parsed and stored in a local array, keyed by `pubkey:d-tag`
+- Adoption list tags are parsed to determine which skills are adopted and their order
+
+---
+
+## Skill Publishing
+
+### Save Public Skill (kind 31123)
+
+```javascript
+const event = {
+  kind: 31123,
+  content: editorContent,  // raw markdown template
+  tags: [
+    [d, slug],
+    [description, descriptionText],
+    // trigger tags if set
+    // execution param tags
+    // requires_tool tags
+    // requires_skill tags
+    // optional_tool tags
+  ],
+  created_at: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000)
+};
+await publishEvent(event);
+```
+
+### Save Private Skill (kind 31124)
+
+Same structure but content is NIP-44 encrypted. The `d` tag stays in plaintext; other metadata moves into the encrypted payload per SKILLS.md spec.
+
+### Update Adoption List (kind 10123)
+
+```javascript
+const event = {
+  kind: 10123,
+  content: '',
+  tags: adoptedSkillAddresses.map(addr => [a, addr]),
+  created_at: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000)

+# Startup Failure Admin DM Notification
+
+> **STATUS UPDATE (follow-up phase):** The base feature (send a failure DM) is
+> implemented and verified on VM410. However, because the failure happens inside the
+> systemd `Restart=on-failure` loop (`RestartSec=10`), the admin now receives a *new*
+> failure DM roughly every ~25 seconds, indefinitely (observed in the live message box).
+> This follow-up adds **throttling/de-duplication** so the failure DM is sent **once per
+> failure type until the next successful startup**, and makes the message **more
+> descriptive** (per-relay connect state + the event kinds that were needed).
+> See the "Follow-up: Throttling + Descriptive Failure DM" section at the end.
+
+# Startup Failure Admin DM Notification (original plan)
+
+## Goal
+
+When the agent fails to start, send a best-effort encrypted DM to the administrator
+describing which startup step failed and why, so the operator learns about the failure
+without having to SSH in and read `journalctl`.
+
+This directly addresses the real-world incident on VM410 where both `didactyl.service`
+and `simon.service` were stuck restart-looping at startup step 14
+(`Subscribe self-skill cache: failed (no skill events found after EOSE)`) and silently
+stopped answering DMs.
+
+## Background / Code References
+
+- Startup is a linear checklist in [`main()`](src/main.c:1012). Each step uses helpers:
+  - [`startup_step_begin()`](src/main.c:303)
+  - [`startup_step_ok()`](src/main.c:309)
+  - [`startup_step_fail()`](src/main.c:320)
+- On any fatal failure, the current pattern is:
+  `startup_step_fail(...)` -> `fprintf(stderr, ...)` -> cleanup calls -> `return 1;`
+  (e.g. the step-14 self-skill abort at [`src/main.c:1520`](src/main.c:1520)).
+- The success path already sends an admin "started up" DM at
+  [`src/main.c:1663`](src/main.c:1663) via
+  [`nostr_handler_send_dm_auto()`](src/nostr_handler.c:3264).
+- DM delivery requires (see [`nostr_handler_send_dm_with_role()`](src/nostr_handler.c:3133)):
+  - `g_cfg` and `g_pool` set (relay pool initialized),
+  - at least one **connected** relay (otherwise the kind-4 event is dropped:
+    "kind 4 event not queued: no connected relays" at [`src/nostr_handler.c:3203`](src/nostr_handler.c:3203)),
+  - a valid `cfg.admin.pubkey` (validated at step 4, [`src/main.c:1310`](src/main.c:1310)),
+  - the private key derived (always done before the checklist).
+
+### Delivery-window reality
+
+A failure DM is only *deliverable* from roughly step 11 onward (relay pool created +
+relays connected + admin known). The step-14 failure we actually hit is inside that
+window, so it will be delivered. Earlier failures (bad nsec, missing admin, LLM config,
+no relay connection) have no working channel; per decision, those are **logged only**
+(best-effort, no blocking retries).
+
+## Design Decision (confirmed)
+
+**Best-effort only.** Attempt the failure DM whenever relays + admin are available; if
+the relay pool isn't connected or admin pubkey is unknown, skip the DM and rely on
+existing stderr/journal logging. No blocking retry loop, no self-healing of the
+underlying failure (that can be a separate plan).
+
+## Approach
+
+Add a single helper that builds and sends the failure DM, then call it from every fatal
+startup-abort site (the points that currently do `startup_step_fail(...) ... return 1;`).
+
+### 1. New helper in [`src/main.c`](src/main.c)
+
+Add a static function near the other startup helpers (after
+[`startup_step_fail()`](src/main.c:320)):
+
+```c
+static void notify_admin_startup_failure(const didactyl_config_t* cfg,
+                                         int step,
+                                         const char* label,
+                                         const char* detail);
+```
+
+Behavior:
+- Guard clauses (skip + DEBUG_WARN if any precondition is missing):
+  - `cfg == NULL` or `cfg->admin.pubkey[0] == '\0'` -> log "admin unknown; cannot notify".
+  - `nostr_handler_connected_relay_count() <= 0` -> log "no connected relay; cannot notify".
+- Build a concise human-readable message, e.g.:
+  ```
+  <DisplayName> FAILED to start at <YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS>.
+  Startup step [14] Subscribe self-skill cache failed: no skill events found after EOSE.
+  Version <X>. Connected relays: <n>/<m>. The agent is NOT online and will not answer DMs until fixed.
+  ```
+  - Reuse `nostr_handler_get_startup_display_name()` and `DIDACTYL_VERSION` exactly like
+    the success DM at [`src/main.c:1645`](src/main.c:1645) for naming/version consistency.
+  - Include `step`, `label`, and `detail` so each failure site is self-describing.
+- Send via `nostr_handler_send_dm_auto(cfg->admin.pubkey, msg)`; if it returns non-zero,
+  `DEBUG_WARN` that the failure DM could not be delivered (do not change the exit code).
+- Pump the poll loop briefly after sending so the async publish can flush before process
+  exit: call `nostr_handler_poll(...)` a few times (e.g. ~300--500 ms total) so the
+  queued kind-4 event is actually written to the relay sockets before cleanup/`return 1`.
+  (Without this, async publish may be discarded on immediate exit.)
+
+### 2. Wire the helper into fatal abort sites
+
+For each fatal `startup_step_fail(...)` that ends in `return 1;`, insert a call to
+`notify_admin_startup_failure(&cfg, <step>, "<label>", "<detail>")` immediately after the
+`startup_step_fail(...)` line and before the cleanup/`return 1`.
+
+Priority sites (inside the deliverable window — relay pool up + admin known):
+- Step 11 — discover self relay list failures
+  ([`src/main.c:1420`](src/main.c:1420), [`src/main.c:1437`](src/main.c:1437)).
+- Step 14 — self-skill cache failures (the incident we hit):
+  - subscribe failed ([`src/main.c:1481`](src/main.c:1481)),
+  - EOSE timeout ([`src/main.c:1496`](src/main.c:1496)),
+  - no skill events after EOSE ([`src/main.c:1521`](src/main.c:1521)).
+- Step 15 — Subscribe DMs failed ([`src/main.c:1552`](src/main.c:1552)).
+
+Earlier-window sites (relay/admin may not be ready — helper will self-skip and just log,
+but we still call it uniformly for completeness):
+- Step 1/3/4/5/6/7/8/9 fatal aborts. The helper's guard clauses make these safe no-ops
+  when delivery isn't possible.
+
+Keep the existing `fprintf(stderr, ...)` and cleanup unchanged; the DM is purely additive
+and must never alter the exit code or cleanup ordering.
+
+### 3. Message size / safety
+
+- Use a fixed stack buffer (e.g. `char msg[768];`) like the success DM at
+  [`src/main.c:1644`](src/main.c:1644).
+- `snprintf` with truncation is acceptable; `detail` strings are short and controlled.
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+- No blocking retry / wait-for-relay loop (explicitly declined).
+- No auto-remediation of the step-14 self-skill cause (e.g. auto-publishing the default
+  skill). Tracked separately if desired.
+- No change to `deploy_lt.sh` post-deploy health checks (could be a follow-up: have the
+  deploy script verify each service reaches `READY` after restart).
+
+## Verification
+
+1. Build the static binary (`build_static.sh`) and confirm no warnings.
+2. Local reproduction of step-14 failure: run an `--nsec`-only agent for an identity that
+   has connected relays but **no** published skill events, confirm:
+   - startup still aborts with exit code 1 (unchanged behavior),
+   - the admin receives a DM naming step 14 and the "no skill events found after EOSE"
+     detail.
+3. Negative case: kill relay connectivity (or use an unreachable relay) and confirm the
+   helper logs "no connected relay; cannot notify" and does not crash or hang.
+4. Confirm the success-path startup DM at [`src/main.c:1663`](src/main.c:1663) is
+   unaffected.
+5. Deploy to VM410, restart `didactyl.service` / `simon.service`, and confirm the admin
+   npub receives the failure DM while the skill events are still missing; then publish a
+   skill and confirm normal `READY` + startup DM resumes.
+
+---
+
+# Follow-up: Throttling + Descriptive Failure DM
+
+## Problems observed in production
+
+1. **DM flood.** With `Restart=on-failure` / `RestartSec=10`, the step-14 failure recurs
+   on every restart and the agent reaches the deliverable window each time, so the admin
+   gets a fresh failure DM every ~25s indefinitely (confirmed in the live message box).
+2. **Insufficient detail.** The current message names the step + detail, but not which
+   relays were attempted, whether each connected, nor which event kinds were required.
+
+## Decisions (confirmed with user)
+
+- **Throttle semantics:** send exactly once per failure type (keyed by step) until the
+  agent next starts successfully. The marker is cleared on `READY`. No periodic
+  reminders. A different failing step is a different "type" and notifies once.
+- **Descriptive content:** include the attempted relay list with per-relay connect state,
+  and the event kinds that step 14 needs (31123 / 31124 skill events; 10123 adoption list).
+
+## Part A -- Throttle / de-duplicate via on-disk marker
+
+### Marker file location (systemd-sandbox safe)
+
+- The unit runs with `WorkingDirectory=/home/<user>` and (hardened variant)
+  `ReadWritePaths=/home/<user>`, so only the agent home is writable.
+- `cfg.tools.shell.working_directory` defaults to `"."` (see
+  [`config.c`](src/config.c:1459)), which resolves to the home dir at runtime.
+- Use a hidden marker in the working directory: `./.didactyl_startup_failure`.
+  - For `didactyl` -> `/home/didactyl/.didactyl_startup_failure`
+  - For `simon` -> `/home/simon/.didactyl_startup_failure`
+  - Both inside the writable `ReadWritePaths`, so writes succeed under the sandbox.
+- Resolve the directory the same way the local-file tools do: prefer
+  `cfg->tools.shell.working_directory` when non-empty, else `"."`
+  (mirror [`tool_local.c`](src/tools/tool_local.c:49)).
+
+### Marker contents
+
+Plain text, one record, easy to parse and inspect manually:
+
+- `step=14`
+- `label=Subscribe self-skill cache`
+- `detail=no skill events found after EOSE`
+- `last_sent_epoch=1781314692`
+
+(Only `step` is strictly needed for the de-dup key; the rest aids debugging.)
+
+### New helpers in [`src/main.c`](src/main.c)
+
+Add small static helpers near
+[`notify_admin_startup_failure()`](src/main.c:331):
+
+- `startup_failure_marker_path(cfg, out, out_size)` -- builds
+  `<workdir>/.didactyl_startup_failure`.
+- `startup_failure_already_notified(cfg, step)` -- returns 1 if the marker exists AND its
+  `step=` matches the current `step` (suppress); 0 otherwise (allow). Missing/unreadable
+  marker -> 0 (allow).
+- `startup_failure_marker_write(cfg, step, label, detail)` -- writes/overwrites the marker
+  after an attempted send.
+- `startup_failure_marker_clear(cfg)` -- `remove()` the marker; ignore ENOENT.
+
+### Wiring
+
+- In [`notify_admin_startup_failure()`](src/main.c:331): after the existing guard
+  clauses (config/admin/relay), check `startup_failure_already_notified(cfg, step)`.
+  If it returns 1, log a DEBUG_INFO suppression line and return without sending.
+  - On a successful send, call `startup_failure_marker_write(cfg, step, label, detail)`.
+  - If the same step keeps failing, only the first restart in the episode sends a DM;
+    subsequent restarts find the matching marker and stay silent.
+  - If a different step fails later, the `step=` mismatch allows exactly one new DM and
+    rewrites the marker with the new step.
+- On the success path, clear the marker so the next failure episode notifies again. Add
+  `startup_failure_marker_clear(&cfg);` next to the READY success DM at
+  [`src/main.c:1663`](src/main.c:1663).
+
+### Edge cases
+
+- Marker write failure (e.g. read-only FS): log DEBUG_WARN and continue. Worst case we
+  fall back to current behavior (may re-send on next restart) -- acceptable, never fatal.
+- Two services share the binary but use different home dirs, so markers never collide.
+
+## Part B -- Descriptive failure message
+
+Enhance the message built in
+[`notify_admin_startup_failure()`](src/main.c:331) to append:
+
+1. **Attempted relays + per-relay state.** Add a compact accessor to the nostr handler:
+   - New `nostr_handler_relay_state_summary(void)` in
+     [`nostr_handler.c`](src/nostr_handler.c) / [`nostr_handler.h`](src/nostr_handler.h)
+     returning a caller-freed compact string like
+     `relay.laantungir.net=connected; relay.damus.io=connected; relay.primal.net=connecting`.
+   - Implement by reusing the existing loop over `g_cfg->relays[]` +
+     `nostr_relay_pool_get_relay_status()` + `relay_status_str()` (patterns at
+     [`src/nostr_handler.c:3183`](src/nostr_handler.c:3183) and
+     [`src/nostr_handler.c:419`](src/nostr_handler.c:419)).
+   - Preferred over embedding raw JSON from
+     [`nostr_handler_relay_status_json()`](src/nostr_handler.c:3971) to keep the DM short.
+2. **Needed event kinds (step-specific).** For step 14 append a fixed clause naming the
+   required events: kind 31123/31124 (skills) and kind 10123 (adoption list). Implement as
+   a small `startup_step_needed_events(step)` lookup in [`src/main.c`](src/main.c) that
+   returns a clause for known steps (14, 11, ...) and empty for others.
+
+### Resulting message shape (example)
+
+- `Didactyl FAILED to start at 2026-06-13 10:38:13.`
+- `Startup step [14] Subscribe self-skill cache failed: no skill events found after EOSE.`
+- `Version v0.2.48. Connected relays: 3/3.`
+- `Relays: relay.laantungir.net=connected; relay.damus.io=connected; relay.primal.net=connected.`
+- `Needed events: kind 31123/31124 (skills) and kind 10123 (adoption list) for this agent's pubkey.`
+- `The agent is NOT online and will not answer DMs until fixed.`
+
+Keep within the existing `failure_dm` buffer (bump to ~1536 if needed); `snprintf`
+truncation remains safe.
+
+## Implementation order
+
+1. Add `nostr_handler_relay_state_summary()` to handler `.c`/`.h`.
+2. Add marker helpers + `startup_step_needed_events()` to [`src/main.c`](src/main.c).
+3. Update [`notify_admin_startup_failure()`](src/main.c:331): de-dup check, richer
+   message, marker write on send.
+4. Add `startup_failure_marker_clear(&cfg)` on the READY success path
+   ([`src/main.c:1663`](src/main.c:1663)).
+5. Build (`make`), then `build_static.sh`, deploy, verify.
+
+## Verification (follow-up)
+
+1. **Throttle:** reproduce step-14 failure; confirm exactly one DM on the first failing
+   restart and no further DMs across subsequent restart-loop iterations (journal shows a
+   suppression line).
+2. **Clear-on-success:** publish a skill so startup reaches `READY`; confirm marker is
+   removed and the normal startup DM is sent.
+3. **Re-arm:** break startup again and confirm a single new DM is delivered.
+4. **Descriptive content:** confirm the DM includes the per-relay state line and the
+   needed-events clause.
+5. **Sandbox write:** on VM410 confirm the marker is created at
+   `/home/didactyl/.didactyl_startup_failure` (and `/home/simon/...`) without permission
+   errors under the systemd sandbox.

+# Full n_signer Transport Support in the Setup Wizard
+
+## Context
+
+`n_signer` (upgraded to v0.1.5) now exposes four transports and a new
+`nostr_mine_event` verb. `nostr_core_lib` (v0.6.6, the client lib didactyl links
+against) already exposes all four transport factories and discovery helpers, but
+didactyl's interactive setup wizard and config/main wiring only recognize
+`nsigner_unix` and `nsigner_tcp`. The existing-agent recovery path still
+requires an nsec and uses raw-key NIP-44, which defeats the point of remote
+signer modes.
+
+This plan closes those gaps so an operator can stand up a new agent or recover
+an existing one using any n_signer transport, with the nsec never entering the
+agent process.
+
+## Current State (verified)
+
+- `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nostr_signer.h` exposes:
+  - `nostr_signer_nsigner_unix`, `nostr_signer_nsigner_tcp`,
+    `nostr_signer_nsigner_serial`, `nostr_signer_nsigner_fds`
+  - `nostr_signer_nsigner_set_auth` (TCP auth envelope)
+- `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nsigner_transport.h` exposes:
+  - `nsigner_transport_list_unix` (enumerate `@nsigner*` abstract sockets)
+  - `nsigner_transport_list_serial` (enumerate `/dev/ttyACM*`)
+- `nostr_core_lib/nostr_core/nostr_signer.c` routes the four core verbs
+  (get_public_key, sign_event, nip04/nip44 encrypt/decrypt) through
+  `nostr_signer_t` for all backends. **`nostr_mine_event` is NOT wired.**
+- `src/config.h` `signer_config_t` has fields for `mode`, `socket_name`,
+  `role`, `timeout_ms`, `auth_privkey_hex`, `tcp_host`, `tcp_port`,
+  `emergency_local_nsec`. **No serial device or fds fields.**
+- `src/config.c` `signer_mode_is_known()` / `signer_mode_is_remote()` only
+  accept `local`, `nsigner_unix`, `nsigner_tcp`.
+- `src/main.c` `apply_signer_overrides()` and `construct_signer()` only handle
+  `local`, `nsigner_unix`, `nsigner_tcp`.
+- `src/setup_wizard.c` `new_agent_identity_step()` option `s` hardcodes
+  `nsigner_unix`, prompts for socket/role/timeout, does a connectivity check,
+  and offers no auto-discovery or TCP/serial/fds choice.
+- `src/setup_wizard.c` `existing_agent_flow()` requires an nsec and uses
+  `nostr_nip44_decrypt`/`nostr_nip44_encrypt` with the raw private key for
+  kind-30078 config recovery (Phase 3 item 13 DEFERRED notes).
+- `src/setup_wizard.c` `install_system_service_with_dedicated_user()` builds
+  `key_args` for `nsigner_unix` and `nsigner_tcp` only.

+
+## Changes by File
+
+### 1. `src/config.h` — extend `signer_config_t`
+
+- Update the `mode` comment to list all five modes:
+  `local | nsigner_unix | nsigner_tcp | nsigner_serial | nsigner_fds`.
+- Add fields:
+  - `char serial_device[OW_MAX_URL_LEN]` — path for `nsigner_serial`.
+  - `int fds_read_fd`, `int fds_write_fd` — for `nsigner_fds` (CLI-only; not
+    persisted to genesis since fds are runtime-only).
+- Add a new `OW_MAX_SIGNER_DEVICE_LEN` constant (reuse `OW_MAX_URL_LEN`).
+
+### 2. `src/config.c` — accept the new modes
+
+- `signer_mode_is_known()`: add `nsigner_serial`, `nsigner_fds`.
+- `signer_mode_is_remote()`: add `nsigner_serial`, `nsigner_fds`.
+- `parse_signer_config()`: parse `serial_device` string. Do NOT parse
+  `fds_read_fd`/`fds_write_fd` from JSON (they are CLI-only); document this.
+- Update the error message string to list all five modes.
+- `config_set_defaults()` (signer block): leave `mode="local"`, zero the new
+  fields.
+
+### 3. `src/main.c` — construct signer for all transports
+
+- `signer_mode_is_remote_local()`: add `nsigner_serial`, `nsigner_fds`.
+- `apply_signer_overrides()`:
+  - Add `--signer-serial <device>` CLI flag → sets mode `nsigner_serial` and
+    `cfg->signer.serial_device`.
+  - Add `--signer-fds <read_fd:write_fd>` CLI flag → sets mode `nsigner_fds`
+    and parses the two fds.
+  - Update the validation block and error message to list all five modes.
+- `construct_signer()`:
+  - Add `nsigner_serial` branch → `nostr_signer_nsigner_serial(
+    cfg->signer.serial_device, role, timeout_ms)`.
+  - Add `nsigner_fds` branch → `nostr_signer_nsigner_fds(
+    cfg->signer.fds_read_fd, cfg->signer.fds_write_fd, role, timeout_ms)`.
+  - Update the "Unknown signer mode" fallback message.
+  - The existing connectivity-check + pubkey-discovery block already works for
+    all remote backends (it calls `nostr_signer_get_public_key`), so no change
+    needed there.
+- Update `print_usage()` help text to document `--signer-serial` and
+  `--signer-fds`.
+
+### 4. `src/setup_wizard.c` — new signer transport picker
+
+Replace the hardcoded `nsigner_unix` block in `new_agent_identity_step()`
+option `s` with a new helper `prompt_signer_transport(cfg)` that:
+
+1. Renders a sub-menu:
+   - `u` nix socket (auto-discover or named)
+   - `t` cp (host:port + optional auth privkey)
+   - `s` erial USB device (auto-discover or path)
+   - `f` d pair (read_fd:write_fd — advanced)
+   - `b` ack
+2. For `u`: call `nsigner_transport_list_unix()` to enumerate running n_signer
+   abstract sockets; if any are found, list them numbered and let the operator
+   pick one or type a custom name; if none found, prompt for a name (empty =
+   auto-discover at boot).
+3. For `t`: prompt `host:port` and an optional 64-char hex auth privkey
+   (echo-suppressed). Store into `cfg->signer.tcp_host/tcp_port/
+   auth_privkey_hex`.
+4. For `s`: call `nsigner_transport_list_serial()` to enumerate
+   `/dev/ttyACM*`; list them and let the operator pick or type a custom path.
+   Store into `cfg->signer.serial_device`.
+5. For `f`: prompt `read_fd:write_fd` (advanced; mainly for qrexec-style
+   deployments). Store into `cfg->signer.fds_read_fd/fds_write_fd`.
+6. Common: prompt `role` (default `main`) and `timeout_ms` (default `15000`).
+7. Set `cfg->signer.mode` to the chosen mode.
+8. Connectivity check: construct an ephemeral `nostr_signer_t*` via the
+   matching factory, call `nostr_signer_get_public_key()` to populate
+   `cfg->keys.public_key_hex`, then `nostr_signer_free()`. On failure, print
+   the error and loop back to the transport picker.
+9. Guard all nsigner_* branches with `#if defined(NOSTR_ENABLE_NSIGNER_CLIENT)`
+   and emit the existing "compiled without n_signer client support" warning
+   otherwise.
+
+Add a parallel entry point to `existing_agent_flow()` so the operator can
+choose "recover via a running n_signer" instead of entering an nsec. See item 5.
+
+### 5. `src/setup_wizard.c` — existing-agent recovery via signer verbs
+
+Refactor `existing_agent_flow()`:
+
+- New first step: choose identity source:
+  - `n` sec (legacy)
+  - `s` ign with a running n_signer (calls `prompt_signer_transport(cfg)`)
+- When the signer path is chosen:
+  - The connectivity check populates `cfg->keys.public_key_hex` from
+    `nostr_signer_get_public_key()`.
+  - Keep the ephemeral signer handle alive for the recovery queries instead
+    of freeing it immediately (pass it through to the recovery helpers).
+- Replace the raw-key NIP-44 decrypt in `fetch_and_decrypt_self_config_wizard()`
+  with a signer-aware variant: when a signer is available, call
+  `nostr_signer_nip44_decrypt(signer, cfg->keys.public_key_hex, ciphertext,
+  &plaintext)`. Fall back to the raw-key path only when `signer == NULL`
+  (local mode). The peer pubkey for self-encrypt is the agent's own pubkey.
+- Replace the raw-key NIP-44 encrypt in
+  `publish_encrypted_self_config_wizard()` the same way.
+- Remove/replace the Phase 3 item 13 DEFERRED comments at those two sites
+  since the signer path is now implemented for the wizard.
+- The `nostr_handler_init(&tmp)` calls in the recovery helpers currently copy
+  the config and re-derive keys; ensure they pick up `cfg->signer` so the
+  handler uses the process signer for its own encrypt/decrypt. (Verify
+  `nostr_handler` already threads the signer through; if not, pass the
+  ephemeral wizard signer via a new `nostr_handler_set_signer()` call for the
+  duration of the recovery queries, then clear it before `cleanup()`.)
+
+### 6. `src/setup_wizard.c` — systemd unit key_args for new modes
+
+In `install_system_service_with_dedicated_user()`, extend the `key_args`
+builder:
+- `nsigner_serial`: `--signer nsigner_serial --signer-serial <device>
+  --signer-role <role> --signer-timeout <ms>`
+- `nsigner_fds`: skip systemd install (fds are runtime-only and cannot be
+  embedded in ExecStart). Print a clear message that fds mode is not
+  installable as a systemd service and the operator must wire the fd-passing
+  themselves (e.g. via a wrapper unit with `Sockets=` or qrexec). Return
+  non-fatal error so the wizard offers "boot now" instead.
+- Update the summary print block (`Signer: %s ...`) to mention serial/fds.
+
+### 7. `src/main.c` — `--signer-serial` / `--signer-fds` arg parsing
+
+Already covered in item 3. Ensure `argv` parsing loop handles the two new
+flags and their values, and that `--signer-fds` parses `read:write` with
+`atoi` validation (both >= 0).
+
+### 8. `nostr_core_lib` — wire `nostr_mine_event` (optional, stretch)
+
+This is a library-side change. If we want didactyl to be able to mine PoW
+events through a remote signer:
+- Add `int nostr_signer_mine_event(nostr_signer_t*, const cJSON* unsigned_event,
+  int difficulty, int threads, int timeout_sec, cJSON** signed_event_out)` to
+  `nostr_signer.h`.
+- Implement the remote branch in `nostr_signer.c` calling
+  `nsigner_client_call(client, "nostr_mine_event", params, &result)` with the
+  options object `{difficulty, threads, timeout_sec}`.
+- Local branch: call the existing `nostr_mine_event` helper in `nip013.c`.
+- This is **not required** for the wizard task; include only if the operator
+  wants PoW through n_signer. Recommend deferring to a follow-up.
+
+### 9. Docs
+
+- Update `docs/GENESIS.md` signer block example to show all five modes and the
+  new `serial_device` field.
+- Update `README.md` quick-start example #5 to mention TCP/serial variants.
+- Add a short section to `docs/CONTEXT.md` (or a new `docs/SIGNER.md`)
+  describing the five modes, when to use each, and the security tradeoff
+  (local keeps nsec in-process; remote modes keep it in n_signer).
+
+## Verification
+
+1. `make deps && make` — must compile cleanly with
+   `-DNOSTR_ENABLE_NSIGNER_CLIENT=1`.
+2. Run `./didactyl --help` — confirm `--signer-serial` and `--signer-fds`
+   appear.
+3. Start a local n_signer on an abstract unix socket; run `./didactyl`
+   (interactive), choose New agent → sign with n_signer → unix → pick the
+   discovered socket → confirm connectivity check prints the pubkey.
+4. Repeat with `--signer-tcp 127.0.0.1:11111` style flow via the wizard TCP
+   option.
+5. Existing-agent flow: with a running n_signer, choose Existing → sign with
+   n_signer → confirm kind-30078 config is decrypted via the signer (no nsec
+   entered). Verify the recovered LLM/admin fields appear.
+6. Negative: kill n_signer mid-wizard → connectivity check fails → wizard
+   loops back to the transport picker.
+7. `nsigner_serial` / `nsigner_fds` modes: validate config load via a
+   genesis file with `signer.mode: "nsigner_serial"` and
+   `serial_device: "/dev/ttyACM0"`; confirm `construct_signer()` attempts the
+   serial factory (will fail without hardware, but the mode must be accepted
+   and reach the factory, not be rejected as "unknown signer mode").
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+- Wiring `nostr_mine_event` into didactyl call sites (only the lib hook in
+  item 8, and only if explicitly requested).
+- Changing the `nostr_handler` signer threading model beyond what the wizard
+  recovery path needs.
+- Windows support for abstract sockets / serial enumeration (Linux-only, as
+  today).

+Didactyl - sovereign Nostr agent
+
+Usage:
+  ./didactyl [options]
+
+Options:
+  -h, --help
+      Show this help text and exit.
+  -v, --version
+      Show version and exit.
+  --config <path>
+      Path to config/genesis JSONC file (default: ./genesis.jsonc).
+      If file is missing, startup falls back to minimal nsec-only mode.
+  --nsec <nsec_or_hex>
+      Private key as nsec1... or 64-char hex; overrides DIDACTYL_NSEC.
+  --admin <npub_or_hex>
+      Administrator pubkey override; accepts npub1... or 64-char hex.
+  --api-port <port>
+      Enable HTTP API and bind to this port (1-65535).
+  --api-bind <addr>
+      Enable HTTP API and bind address (example: 127.0.0.1).
+  --debug <0-5>
+      Log level (0=fatal, 1=error, 2=warn, 3=info, 4=debug, 5=trace).
+  --signer <mode>
+      Signer provider: local | nsigner_unix | nsigner_tcp.
+      Overrides signer.mode in config and DIDACTYL_SIGNER.
+      In nsigner_* modes --nsec/DIDACTYL_NSEC are not required.
+  --signer-socket <name>
+      Abstract socket name for nsigner_unix (without leading @).
+  --signer-role <role>
+      n_signer role selector (default: main).
+  --signer-timeout <ms>
+      Per-call signer timeout in milliseconds (default: 15000).
+  --signer-tcp <host:port>
+      Shorthand for --signer nsigner_tcp with host/port parsed.
+  --dump-schemas
+      Print tool schemas JSON and exit.
+  --test-tool <name> <args_json>
+      Execute one tool call locally and print JSON result, then exit.
+
+Environment:
+  DIDACTYL_NSEC
+      Fallback private key when --nsec is not provided (local mode only).
+  DIDACTYL_SIGNER
+      Fallback signer mode when --signer is not provided.
+
+Examples:
+  1) Genesis-based startup
+     ./didactyl --config genesis.jsonc
+
+  2) nsec-only startup (no config file)
+     ./didactyl --nsec nsec1...
+
+  3) nsec via environment variable
+     DIDACTYL_NSEC=nsec1... ./didactyl
+
+  4) Override API bind/port
+     ./didactyl --config genesis.jsonc --api-bind 127.0.0.1 --api-port 8484
+
+  5) Sign with a running n_signer (separate the nsec from the agent)
+     ./didactyl --signer nsigner_unix --signer-socket nsigner_hairy_dog --admin npub1...
+
+  6) n_signer via TCP
+     ./didactyl --signer-tcp 127.0.0.1:7777 --admin npub1...
+
+  7) Dump tool schemas
+     ./didactyl --dump-schemas
+
+  8) Test a tool invocation
+     ./didactyl --test-tool config_recall '{"config_name":"llm_config"}'
