 ## Herdr host mode
 
-When Herdr supplies `HERDR_ENV=1` and `HERDR_PANE_ID`, nanobot becomes a quiet hosted client. It uses OpenTUI's main-screen mode instead of hiding the whole run in a temporary alternate screen, removes the launch card and persistent session/model chrome, and keeps only the transcript, last user task, current progress, and composer. Herdr remains responsible for workspace, tab, pane, and attention navigation; hosted command discovery therefore omits the duplicate session/new-chat/branch controls.
+When Herdr supplies `HERDR_ENV=1` and `HERDR_PANE_ID`, nanobot becomes a quiet hosted client. It uses OpenTUI's main-screen mode instead of hiding the whole run in a temporary alternate screen, removes the launch card and persistent session/model chrome, and keeps only the transcript, last user task, current progress, and composer. Herdr remains responsible for workspace, tab, pane, and attention navigation, while nanobot keeps its application-level session, new-chat, and branch commands.
 
 The TUI reports its WebSocket session ID, model, Git branch, workspace, last task, and current action through Herdr's supported pane CLI. Sending work reports `working`; a persisted explicit nanobot goal block reports `blocked`; a completed turn reports `idle`; exit releases lifecycle authority. The gateway session remains the durable transcript and resume path. Standalone terminals keep the richer full-screen navigation described below.
