+# Contributing to nanobot
+
+Thank you for being here.
+
+nanobot is built with a simple belief: good tools should feel calm, clear, and humane.
+We care deeply about useful features, but we also believe in achieving more with less:
+solutions should be powerful without becoming heavy, and ambitious without becoming
+needlessly complicated.
+
+This guide is not only about how to open a PR. It is also about how we hope to build
+software together: with care, clarity, and respect for the next person reading the code.
+
+## Maintainers
+
+| Maintainer | Focus |
+|------------|-------|
+| [@re-bin](https://github.com/re-bin) | Project lead, `main` branch |
+| [@chengyongru](https://github.com/chengyongru) | `nightly` branch, experimental features |
+
+## Branching Strategy
+
+We use a two-branch model to balance stability and exploration:
+
+| Branch | Purpose | Stability |
+|--------|---------|-----------|
+| `main` | Stable releases | Production-ready |
+| `nightly` | Experimental features | May have bugs or breaking changes |
+
+### Which Branch Should I Target?
+
+**Target `nightly` if your PR includes:**
+
+- New features or functionality
+- Refactoring that may affect existing behavior
+- Changes to APIs or configuration
+
+**Target `main` if your PR includes:**
+
+- Bug fixes with no behavior changes
+- Documentation improvements
+- Minor tweaks that don't affect functionality
+
+**When in doubt, target `nightly`.** It is easier to move a stable idea from `nightly`
+to `main` than to undo a risky change after it lands in the stable branch.
+
+### How Does Nightly Get Merged to Main?
+
+We don't merge the entire `nightly` branch. Instead, stable features are **cherry-picked** from `nightly` into individual PRs targeting `main`:
+
+```
+nightly  ──┬── feature A (stable) ──► PR ──► main
+           ├── feature B (testing)
+           └── feature C (stable) ──► PR ──► main
+```
+
+This happens approximately **once a week**, but the timing depends on when features become stable enough.
+
+### Quick Summary
+
+| Your Change | Target Branch |
+|-------------|---------------|
+| New feature | `nightly` |
+| Bug fix | `main` |
+| Documentation | `main` |
+| Refactoring | `nightly` |
+| Unsure | `nightly` |
+
+## Development Setup
+
+Keep setup boring and reliable. The goal is to get you into the code quickly:
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/nanobot.git
+cd nanobot
+
+# Install with dev dependencies
+pip install -e ".[dev]"
+
+# Run tests
+pytest
+
+# Lint code
+ruff check nanobot/
+
+# Format code
+ruff format nanobot/
+```
+
+## Contribution License
+
+By submitting a contribution, you confirm that you have the right to submit it
+and agree that it will be licensed under the project's MIT License.
+
+## Code Style
+
+We care about more than passing lint. We want nanobot to stay small, calm, and readable.
+
+When contributing, please aim for code that feels:
+
+- Simple: prefer the smallest change that solves the real problem
+- Clear: optimize for the next reader, not for cleverness
+- Decoupled: keep boundaries clean and avoid unnecessary new abstractions
+- Honest: do not hide complexity, but do not create extra complexity either
+- Durable: choose solutions that are easy to maintain, test, and extend
+
+In practice:
+
+- Line length: 100 characters (`ruff`)
+- Target: Python 3.11+
+- Linting: `ruff` with rules E, F, I, N, W (E501 ignored)
+- Async: uses `asyncio` throughout; pytest with `asyncio_mode = "auto"`
+- Prefer readable code over magical code
+- Prefer focused patches over broad rewrites
+- If a new abstraction is introduced, it should clearly reduce complexity rather than move it around
+
+## Questions?
+
+If you have questions, ideas, or half-formed insights, you are warmly welcome here.
+
+Please feel free to open an [issue](https://github.com/HKUDS/nanobot/issues), join the community, or simply reach out:
+
+- [Discord](https://discord.gg/MnCvHqpUGB)
+- [Feishu/WeChat](./COMMUNICATION.md)
+- Email: Xubin Ren (@Re-bin) — <xubinrencs@gmail.com>
+
+Thank you for spending your time and care on nanobot. We would love for more people to participate in this community, and we genuinely welcome contributions of all sizes.

-🐈 **nanobot** is an **ultra-lightweight** personal AI assistant inspired by [Clawdbot](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw) 
-
-⚡️ Delivers core agent functionality in just **~4,000** lines of code — **99% smaller** than Clawdbot's 430k+ lines.
+🐈 **nanobot** is an open-source and ultra-lightweight AI agent in the spirit of [OpenClaw](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw), [Claude Code](https://www.anthropic.com/claude-code), and [Codex](https://www.openai.com/codex/).

+## 💡 Key Features of nanobot
+
+- **Ultra-lightweight**: stable long-running agent behavior with a small, readable core.
+- **Research-ready**: the codebase is intentionally simple enough to study, modify, and extend.
+- **Practical**: chat channels, API, memory, MCP, and deployment paths are already built in.
+- **Hackable**: you can start fast, then go deeper through repo docs instead of a monolithic landing page.
+
+## 📦 Install
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> If you want the newest features and experiments, install from source. 
+> 
+> If you want the most stable day-to-day experience, install from PyPI or with `uv`.
+
+**Install from source**
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/HKUDS/nanobot.git
+cd nanobot
+pip install -e .
+```
+
+**Install with `uv`**
+
+```bash
+uv tool install nanobot-ai
+```
+
+**Install from PyPI**
+
+```bash
+pip install nanobot-ai
+```
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+**1. Initialize**
+
+```bash
+nanobot onboard
+```
+
+**2. Configure** (`~/.nanobot/config.json`)
+
+Configure these **two parts** in your config (other options have defaults). Add or merge the following blocks into your existing config instead of replacing the whole file.
+
+*Set your API key* (e.g. [OpenRouter](https://openrouter.ai/keys), recommended for global users):
+
+```json
+{
+  "providers": {
+    "openrouter": {
+      "apiKey": "sk-or-v1-xxx"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+*Set your model* (optionally pin a provider — defaults to auto-detection):
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "defaults": {
+      "provider": "openrouter",
+      "model": "anthropic/claude-opus-4-6"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**3. Chat**
+
+```bash
+nanobot agent
+```
+
+
+- Want different LLM providers, web search, MCP, security settings, or more config options? See [Configuration](./docs/configuration.md)
+- Want to run nanobot in chat apps like Telegram, Discord, WeChat or Feishu? See [Chat Apps](./docs/chat-apps.md)
+- Want Docker or Linux service deployment? See [Deployment](./docs/deployment.md)

+## 🧪 WebUI (Development)
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The WebUI development workflow currently requires a source checkout and is not yet shipped together with the official packaged release. See [WebUI Document](./webui/README.md) for full WebUI development docs and build steps.

+
+**1. Enable the WebSocket channel in `~/.nanobot/config.json`**
+
+```json
+{ "channels": { "websocket": { "enabled": true } } }
+```
+
+**2. Start the gateway**
+
+```bash
+nanobot gateway
+```
+
+**3. Start the webui dev server**
+
+```bash
+cd webui

+  <img src="images/nanobot_arch.png" alt="nanobot architecture" width="800">
 </p>
 
+🐈 nanobot stays lightweight by centering everything around a small agent loop: messages come in from chat apps, the LLM decides when tools are needed, and memory or skills are pulled in only as context instead of becoming a heavy orchestration layer. That keeps the core path readable and easy to extend, while still letting you add channels, tools, memory, and deployment options without turning the system into a monolith.

+# Security Policy
+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+If you discover a security vulnerability in nanobot, please report it by:
+
+1. **DO NOT** open a public GitHub issue
+2. Create a private security advisory on GitHub or contact the repository maintainers (xubinrencs@gmail.com)
+3. Include:
+   - Description of the vulnerability
+   - Steps to reproduce
+   - Potential impact
+   - Suggested fix (if any)
+
+We aim to respond to security reports within 48 hours.
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+### 1. API Key Management
+
+**CRITICAL**: Never commit API keys to version control.
+
+```bash
+# ✅ Good: Store in config file with restricted permissions
+chmod 600 ~/.nanobot/config.json
+
+# ❌ Bad: Hardcoding keys in code or committing them
+```
+
+**Recommendations:**
+- Store API keys in `~/.nanobot/config.json` with file permissions set to `0600`
+- Consider using environment variables for sensitive keys
+- Use OS keyring/credential manager for production deployments
+- Rotate API keys regularly
+- Use separate API keys for development and production
+
+### 2. Channel Access Control
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Always configure `allowFrom` lists for production use.
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "telegram": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "token": "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN",
+      "allowFrom": ["123456789", "987654321"]
+    },
+    "whatsapp": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "allowFrom": ["+1234567890"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Security Notes:**
+- In `v0.1.4.post3` and earlier, an empty `allowFrom` allowed all users. Since `v0.1.4.post4`, empty `allowFrom` denies all access by default — set `["*"]` to explicitly allow everyone.
+- Get your Telegram user ID from `@userinfobot`
+- Use full phone numbers with country code for WhatsApp
+- Review access logs regularly for unauthorized access attempts
+
+### 3. Shell Command Execution
+
+The `exec` tool can execute shell commands. While dangerous command patterns are blocked, you should:
+
+- ✅ **Enable the bwrap sandbox** (`"tools.exec.sandbox": "bwrap"`) for kernel-level isolation (Linux only)
+- ✅ Review all tool usage in agent logs
+- ✅ Understand what commands the agent is running
+- ✅ Use a dedicated user account with limited privileges
+- ✅ Never run nanobot as root
+- ❌ Don't disable security checks
+- ❌ Don't run on systems with sensitive data without careful review
+
+**Exec sandbox (bwrap):**
+
+On Linux, set `"tools.exec.sandbox": "bwrap"` to wrap every shell command in a [bubblewrap](https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap) sandbox. This uses Linux kernel namespaces to restrict what the process can see:
+
+- Workspace directory → **read-write** (agent works normally)
+- Media directory → **read-only** (can read uploaded attachments)
+- System directories (`/usr`, `/bin`, `/lib`) → **read-only** (commands still work)
+- Config files and API keys (`~/.nanobot/config.json`) → **hidden** (masked by tmpfs)
+
+Requires `bwrap` installed (`apt install bubblewrap`). Pre-installed in the official Docker image. **Not available on macOS or Windows** — bubblewrap depends on Linux kernel namespaces.
+
+Enabling the sandbox also automatically activates `restrictToWorkspace` for file tools.
+
+**Blocked patterns:**
+- `rm -rf /` - Root filesystem deletion
+- Fork bombs
+- Filesystem formatting (`mkfs.*`)
+- Raw disk writes
+- Other destructive operations
+
+### 4. File System Access
+
+File operations have path traversal protection, but:
+
+- ✅ Enable `restrictToWorkspace` or the bwrap sandbox to confine file access
+- ✅ Run nanobot with a dedicated user account
+- ✅ Use filesystem permissions to protect sensitive directories
+- ✅ Regularly audit file operations in logs
+- ❌ Don't give unrestricted access to sensitive files
+
+### 5. Network Security
+
+**API Calls:**
+- All external API calls use HTTPS by default
+- Timeouts are configured to prevent hanging requests
+- Consider using a firewall to restrict outbound connections if needed
+
+**WhatsApp Bridge:**
+- The bridge binds to `127.0.0.1:3001` (localhost only, not accessible from external network)
+- Set `bridgeToken` in config to enable shared-secret authentication between Python and Node.js
+- Keep authentication data in `~/.nanobot/whatsapp-auth` secure (mode 0700)
+
+### 6. Dependency Security
+
+**Critical**: Keep dependencies updated!
+
+```bash
+# Check for vulnerable dependencies
+pip install pip-audit
+pip-audit
+
+# Update to latest secure versions
+pip install --upgrade nanobot-ai
+```
+
+For Node.js dependencies (WhatsApp bridge):
+```bash
+cd bridge
+npm audit
+npm audit fix
+```
+
+**Important Notes:**
+- Keep `litellm` updated to the latest version for security fixes
+- We've updated `ws` to `>=8.17.1` to fix DoS vulnerability
+- Run `pip-audit` or `npm audit` regularly
+- Subscribe to security advisories for nanobot and its dependencies
+
+### 7. Production Deployment
+
+For production use:
+
+1. **Isolate the Environment**
+   ```bash
+   # Run in a container or VM
+   docker run --rm -it python:3.11
+   pip install nanobot-ai
+   ```
+
+2. **Use a Dedicated User**
+   ```bash
+   sudo useradd -m -s /bin/bash nanobot
+   sudo -u nanobot nanobot gateway
+   ```
+
+3. **Set Proper Permissions**
+   ```bash
+   chmod 700 ~/.nanobot
+   chmod 600 ~/.nanobot/config.json
+   chmod 700 ~/.nanobot/whatsapp-auth
+   ```
+
+4. **Enable Logging**
+   ```bash
+   # Configure log monitoring
+   tail -f ~/.nanobot/logs/nanobot.log
+   ```
+
+5. **Use Rate Limiting**
+   - Configure rate limits on your API providers
+   - Monitor usage for anomalies
+   - Set spending limits on LLM APIs
+
+6. **Regular Updates**
+   ```bash
+   # Check for updates weekly
+   pip install --upgrade nanobot-ai
+   ```
+
+### 8. Development vs Production
+
+**Development:**
+- Use separate API keys
+- Test with non-sensitive data
+- Enable verbose logging
+- Use a test Telegram bot
+
+**Production:**
+- Use dedicated API keys with spending limits
+- Restrict file system access
+- Enable audit logging
+- Regular security reviews
+- Monitor for unusual activity
+
+### 9. Data Privacy
+
+- **Logs may contain sensitive information** - secure log files appropriately
+- **LLM providers see your prompts** - review their privacy policies
+- **Chat history is stored locally** - protect the `~/.nanobot` directory
+- **API keys are in plain text** - use OS keyring for production
+
+### 10. Incident Response
+
+If you suspect a security breach:
+
+1. **Immediately revoke compromised API keys**
+2. **Review logs for unauthorized access**
+   ```bash
+   grep "Access denied" ~/.nanobot/logs/nanobot.log
+   ```
+3. **Check for unexpected file modifications**
+4. **Rotate all credentials**
+5. **Update to latest version**
+6. **Report the incident** to maintainers
+
+## Security Features
+
+### Built-in Security Controls
+
+✅ **Input Validation**
+- Path traversal protection on file operations
+- Dangerous command pattern detection
+- Input length limits on HTTP requests
+
+✅ **Authentication**
+- Allow-list based access control — in `v0.1.4.post3` and earlier empty `allowFrom` allowed all; since `v0.1.4.post4` it denies all (`["*"]` explicitly allows all)
+- Failed authentication attempt logging
+
+✅ **Resource Protection**
+- Command execution timeouts (60s default)
+- Output truncation (10KB limit)
+- HTTP request timeouts (10-30s)
+
+✅ **Secure Communication**
+- HTTPS for all external API calls
+- TLS for Telegram API
+- WhatsApp bridge: localhost-only binding + optional token auth
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+⚠️ **Current Security Limitations:**
+
+1. **No Rate Limiting** - Users can send unlimited messages (add your own if needed)
+2. **Plain Text Config** - API keys stored in plain text (use keyring for production)
+3. **No Session Management** - No automatic session expiry
+4. **Limited Command Filtering** - Only blocks obvious dangerous patterns (enable the bwrap sandbox for kernel-level isolation on Linux)
+5. **No Audit Trail** - Limited security event logging (enhance as needed)
+
+## Security Checklist
+
+Before deploying nanobot:
+
+- [ ] API keys stored securely (not in code)
+- [ ] Config file permissions set to 0600
+- [ ] `allowFrom` lists configured for all channels
+- [ ] Running as non-root user
+- [ ] Exec sandbox enabled (`"tools.exec.sandbox": "bwrap"`) on Linux deployments
+- [ ] File system permissions properly restricted
+- [ ] Dependencies updated to latest secure versions
+- [ ] Logs monitored for security events
+- [ ] Rate limits configured on API providers
+- [ ] Backup and disaster recovery plan in place
+- [ ] Security review of custom skills/tools

+# Channel Plugin Guide
+
+Build a custom nanobot channel in three steps: subclass, package, install.
+
+> **Note:** We recommend developing channel plugins against a source checkout of nanobot (`pip install -e .`) rather than a PyPI release, so you always have access to the latest base-channel features and APIs.
+
+## How It Works
+
+nanobot discovers channel plugins via Python [entry points](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/entry-points/). When `nanobot gateway` starts, it scans:
+
+1. Built-in channels in `nanobot/channels/`
+2. External packages registered under the `nanobot.channels` entry point group
+
+If a matching config section has `"enabled": true`, the channel is instantiated and started.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+We'll build a minimal webhook channel that receives messages via HTTP POST and sends replies back.
+
+### Project Structure
+
+```text

+│   ├── __init__.py          # re-export WebhookChannel

+
+### 1. Create Your Channel
+
+```python
+# nanobot_channel_webhook/__init__.py
+from nanobot_channel_webhook.channel import WebhookChannel
+
+__all__ = ["WebhookChannel"]

+
+        # This is the key call: validates allowFrom, then puts the
+        # message onto the bus for the agent to process.
+        await self._handle_message(
+            sender_id=sender,
+            chat_id=chat_id,

+            media=media,
+        )
+
+        return web.json_response({"ok": True})
+```
+
+### 2. Register the Entry Point
+
+```toml
+# pyproject.toml
+[project]
+name = "nanobot-channel-webhook"
+version = "0.1.0"
+dependencies = ["nanobot-ai", "aiohttp"]
+
+[project.entry-points."nanobot.channels"]
+webhook = "nanobot_channel_webhook:WebhookChannel"
+
+[build-system]
+requires = ["hatchling"]
+build-backend = "hatchling.build"
+
+[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]
+packages = ["nanobot_channel_webhook"]
+```
+
+The key (`webhook`) becomes the config section name. The value points to your `BaseChannel` subclass.
+
+### 3. Install & Configure
+
+```bash
+pip install -e .
+nanobot plugins list      # verify "Webhook" shows as "plugin"
+nanobot onboard           # auto-adds default config for detected plugins
+```
+
+Edit `~/.nanobot/config.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "webhook": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "port": 9000,
+      "allowFrom": ["*"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Run & Test
+
+```bash
+nanobot gateway
+```
+
+In another terminal:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9000/message \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"sender": "user1", "chat_id": "user1", "text": "Hello!"}'
+```
+
+The agent receives the message and processes it. Replies arrive in your `send()` method.
+
+## BaseChannel API
+
+### Required (abstract)
+
+| Method | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `async start()` | **Must block forever.** Connect to platform, listen for messages, call `_handle_message()` on each. If this returns, the channel is dead. |
+| `async stop()` | Set `self._running = False` and clean up. Called when gateway shuts down. |
+| `async send(msg: OutboundMessage)` | Deliver an outbound message to the platform. |
+
+### Interactive Login
+
+If your channel requires interactive authentication (e.g. QR code scan), override `login(force=False)`:
+
+```python
+async def login(self, force: bool = False) -> bool:
+    """
+    Perform channel-specific interactive login.
+
+    Args:
+        force: If True, ignore existing credentials and re-authenticate.
+
+    Returns True if already authenticated or login succeeds.
+    """
+    # For QR-code-based login:
+    # 1. If force, clear saved credentials
+    # 2. Check if already authenticated (load from disk/state)
+    # 3. If not, show QR code and poll for confirmation
+    # 4. Save token on success
+```
+
+Channels that don't need interactive login (e.g. Telegram with bot token, Discord with bot token) inherit the default `login()` which just returns `True`.
+
+Users trigger interactive login via:
+```bash
+nanobot channels login <channel_name>
+nanobot channels login <channel_name> --force  # re-authenticate
+```
+
+### Provided by Base
+
+| Method / Property | Description |
+|-------------------|-------------|
+| `_handle_message(sender_id, chat_id, content, media?, metadata?, session_key?)` | **Call this when you receive a message.** Checks `is_allowed()`, then publishes to the bus. Automatically sets `_wants_stream` if `supports_streaming` is true. |
+| `is_allowed(sender_id)` | Checks against `config.allow_from`; `"*"` allows all, `[]` denies all. |
+| `default_config()` (classmethod) | Returns default config dict for `nanobot onboard`. Override to declare your fields. |
+| `transcribe_audio(file_path)` | Transcribes audio via Groq Whisper (if configured). |
+| `supports_streaming` (property) | `True` when config has `"streaming": true` **and** subclass overrides `send_delta()`. |
+| `is_running` | Returns `self._running`. |
+| `login(force=False)` | Perform interactive login (e.g. QR code scan). Returns `True` if already authenticated or login succeeds. Override in subclasses that support interactive login. |
+
+### Optional (streaming)
+
+| Method | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `async send_delta(chat_id, delta, metadata?)` | Override to receive streaming chunks. See [Streaming Support](#streaming-support) for details. |
+
+### Message Types
+
+```python
+@dataclass
+class OutboundMessage:
+    channel: str        # your channel name
+    chat_id: str        # recipient (same value you passed to _handle_message)
+    content: str        # markdown text — convert to platform format as needed
+    media: list[str]    # local file paths to attach (images, audio, docs)
+    metadata: dict      # may contain: "_progress" (bool) for streaming chunks,
+                        #              "message_id" for reply threading
+```
+
+## Streaming Support
+
+Channels can opt into real-time streaming — the agent sends content token-by-token instead of one final message. This is entirely optional; channels work fine without it.
+
+### How It Works
+
+When **both** conditions are met, the agent streams content through your channel:
+
+1. Config has `"streaming": true`
+2. Your subclass overrides `send_delta()`
+
+If either is missing, the agent falls back to the normal one-shot `send()` path.
+
+### Implementing `send_delta`
+
+Override `send_delta` to handle two types of calls:
+
+```python
+async def send_delta(self, chat_id: str, delta: str, metadata: dict[str, Any] | None = None) -> None:
+    meta = metadata or {}
+
+    if meta.get("_stream_end"):
+        # Streaming finished — do final formatting, cleanup, etc.
+        return
+
+    # Regular delta — append text, update the message on screen
+    # delta contains a small chunk of text (a few tokens)
+```
+
+**Metadata flags:**
+
+| Flag | Meaning |
+|------|---------|
+| `_stream_delta: True` | A content chunk (delta contains the new text) |
+| `_stream_end: True` | Streaming finished (delta is empty) |
+
+### Example: Webhook with Streaming
+
+```python
+class WebhookChannel(BaseChannel):
+    name = "webhook"
+    display_name = "Webhook"
+
+    def __init__(self, config: Any, bus: MessageBus):
+        if isinstance(config, dict):
+            config = WebhookConfig(**config)
+        super().__init__(config, bus)
+        self._buffers: dict[str, str] = {}
+
+    async def send_delta(self, chat_id: str, delta: str, metadata: dict[str, Any] | None = None) -> None:
+        meta = metadata or {}
+        if meta.get("_stream_end"):
+            text = self._buffers.pop(chat_id, "")
+            # Final delivery — format and send the complete message
+            await self._deliver(chat_id, text, final=True)
+            return
+
+        self._buffers.setdefault(chat_id, "")
+        self._buffers[chat_id] += delta
+        # Incremental update — push partial text to the client
+        await self._deliver(chat_id, self._buffers[chat_id], final=False)
+
+    async def send(self, msg: OutboundMessage) -> None:
+        # Non-streaming path — unchanged
+        await self._deliver(msg.chat_id, msg.content, final=True)
+```
+
+### Config
+
+Enable streaming per channel:
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "webhook": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "streaming": true,
+      "allowFrom": ["*"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+When `streaming` is `false` (default) or omitted, only `send()` is called — no streaming overhead.
+
+### BaseChannel Streaming API
+
+| Method / Property | Description |
+|-------------------|-------------|
+| `async send_delta(chat_id, delta, metadata?)` | Override to handle streaming chunks. No-op by default. |
+| `supports_streaming` (property) | Returns `True` when config has `streaming: true` **and** subclass overrides `send_delta`. |
+
+## Config
+
+### Why Pydantic model is required
+
+`BaseChannel.is_allowed()` reads the permission list via `getattr(self.config, "allow_from", [])`. This works for Pydantic models where `allow_from` is a real Python attribute, but **fails silently for plain `dict`** — `dict` has no `allow_from` attribute, so `getattr` always returns the default `[]`, causing all messages to be denied.
+
+Built-in channels use Pydantic config models (subclassing `Base` from `nanobot.config.schema`). Plugin channels **must do the same**.
+
+### Pattern
+
+1. Define a Pydantic model inheriting from `nanobot.config.schema.Base`:
+
+```python
+from pydantic import Field
+from nanobot.config.schema import Base
+
+class WebhookConfig(Base):
+    """Webhook channel configuration."""
+    enabled: bool = False
+    port: int = 9000
+    allow_from: list[str] = Field(default_factory=list)
+```
+
+`Base` is configured with `alias_generator=to_camel` and `populate_by_name=True`, so JSON keys like `"allowFrom"` and `"allow_from"` are both accepted.
+
+2. Convert `dict` → model in `__init__`:
+
+```python
+from typing import Any
+from nanobot.bus.queue import MessageBus
+
+class WebhookChannel(BaseChannel):
+    def __init__(self, config: Any, bus: MessageBus):
+        if isinstance(config, dict):
+            config = WebhookConfig(**config)
+        super().__init__(config, bus)
+```
+
+3. Access config as attributes (not `.get()`):
+
+```python
+async def start(self) -> None:
+    port = self.config.port
+    token = self.config.token
+```
+
+`allowFrom` is handled automatically by `_handle_message()` — you don't need to check it yourself.
+
+Override `default_config()` so `nanobot onboard` auto-populates `config.json`:
+
+```python
+@classmethod
+def default_config(cls) -> dict[str, Any]:
+    return WebhookConfig().model_dump(by_alias=True)
+```
+
+> **Note:** `default_config()` returns a plain `dict` (not a Pydantic model) because it's used to serialize into `config.json`. The recommended way is to instantiate your config model and call `model_dump(by_alias=True)` — this automatically uses camelCase keys (`allowFrom`) and keeps defaults in a single source of truth.
+
+If not overridden, the base class returns `{"enabled": false}`.
+
+## Naming Convention
+
+| What | Format | Example |
+|------|--------|---------|
+| PyPI package | `nanobot-channel-{name}` | `nanobot-channel-webhook` |
+| Entry point key | `{name}` | `webhook` |
+| Config section | `channels.{name}` | `channels.webhook` |
+| Python package | `nanobot_channel_{name}` | `nanobot_channel_webhook` |
+
+## Local Development
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/you/nanobot-channel-webhook
+cd nanobot-channel-webhook
+pip install -e .
+nanobot plugins list    # should show "Webhook" as "plugin"
+nanobot gateway         # test end-to-end
+```
+
+## Verify
+
+```bash
+$ nanobot plugins list
+
+  Name       Source    Enabled
+  telegram   builtin  yes
+  discord    builtin  no
+  webhook    plugin   yes

+
+**2. Enable intents**
+- In the Bot settings, enable **MESSAGE CONTENT INTENT**
+- (Optional) Enable **SERVER MEMBERS INTENT** if you plan to use allow lists based on member data

+
+> `groupPolicy` controls how the bot responds in group channels:
+> - `"mention"` (default) — Only respond when @mentioned
+> - `"open"` — Respond to all messages
+> DMs always respond when the sender is in `allowFrom`.
+> - If you set group policy to open create new threads as private threads and then @ the bot into it. Otherwise the thread itself and the channel in which you spawned it will spawn a bot session.
+> `allowChannels` restricts the bot to specific Discord channel IDs. Empty (default) means respond in every channel the bot can see. Example: `["1234567890", "0987654321"]`. The filter applies after `allowFrom`, so both must pass.

+
+**1. Create a Feishu bot**
+- Visit [Feishu Open Platform](https://open.feishu.cn/app)
+- Create a new app → Enable **Bot** capability
+- **Permissions**:
+  - `im:message` (send messages) and `im:message.p2p_msg:readonly` (receive messages)
+  - **Streaming replies** (default in nanobot): add **`cardkit:card:write`** (often labeled **Create and update cards** in the Feishu developer console). Required for CardKit entities and streamed assistant text. Older apps may not have it yet — open **Permission management**, enable the scope, then **publish** a new app version if the console requires it.
+  - If you **cannot** add `cardkit:card:write`, set `"streaming": false` under `channels.feishu` (see below). The bot still works; replies use normal interactive cards without token-by-token streaming.
+- **Events**: Add `im.message.receive_v1` (receive messages)

+# In-Chat Commands
+
+These commands work inside chat channels and interactive agent sessions:
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `/new` | Stop current task and start a new conversation |
+| `/stop` | Stop the current task |
+| `/restart` | Restart the bot |
+| `/status` | Show bot status |
+| `/dream` | Run Dream memory consolidation now |
+| `/dream-log` | Show the latest Dream memory change |
+| `/dream-log <sha>` | Show a specific Dream memory change |
+| `/dream-restore` | List recent Dream memory versions |
+| `/dream-restore <sha>` | Restore memory to the state before a specific change |
+| `/help` | Show available in-chat commands |
+
+## Periodic Tasks
+
+The gateway wakes up every 30 minutes and checks `HEARTBEAT.md` in your workspace (`~/.nanobot/workspace/HEARTBEAT.md`). If the file has tasks, the agent executes them and delivers results to your most recently active chat channel.
+
+**Setup:** edit `~/.nanobot/workspace/HEARTBEAT.md` (created automatically by `nanobot onboard`):
+
+```markdown
+## Periodic Tasks
+
+- [ ] Check weather forecast and send a summary
+- [ ] Scan inbox for urgent emails
+```
+
+The agent can also manage this file itself — ask it to "add a periodic task" and it will update `HEARTBEAT.md` for you.
+
+> **Note:** The gateway must be running (`nanobot gateway`) and you must have chatted with the bot at least once so it knows which channel to deliver to.

+Config file: `~/.nanobot/config.json`
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> If your config file is older than the current schema, you can refresh it without overwriting your existing values:

+> nanobot will merge in missing default fields and keep your current settings.
+
+## Environment Variables for Secrets
+
+Instead of storing secrets directly in `config.json`, you can use `${VAR_NAME}` references that are resolved from environment variables at startup:
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "telegram": { "token": "${TELEGRAM_TOKEN}" },
+    "email": {
+      "imapPassword": "${IMAP_PASSWORD}",
+      "smtpPassword": "${SMTP_PASSWORD}"
+    }
+  },
+  "providers": {
+    "groq": { "apiKey": "${GROQ_API_KEY}" }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+For **systemd** deployments, use `EnvironmentFile=` in the service unit to load variables from a file that only the deploying user can read:
+
+```ini
+# /etc/systemd/system/nanobot.service (excerpt)
+[Service]
+EnvironmentFile=/home/youruser/nanobot_secrets.env
+User=nanobot
+ExecStart=...
+```
+
+```bash
+# /home/youruser/nanobot_secrets.env (mode 600, owned by youruser)
+TELEGRAM_TOKEN=your-token-here
+IMAP_PASSWORD=your-password-here
+```
+
+## Providers
+
+> [!TIP]
+> - **Voice transcription**: Voice messages (Telegram, WhatsApp) are automatically transcribed using Whisper. By default Groq is used (free tier). Set `"transcriptionProvider": "openai"` under `channels` to use OpenAI Whisper instead, and optionally set `"transcriptionLanguage": "en"` (or another ISO-639-1 code) for more accurate transcription. The API key is picked from the matching provider config.
+> - **MiniMax Coding Plan**: Exclusive discount links for the nanobot community: [Overseas](https://platform.minimax.io/subscribe/coding-plan?code=9txpdXw04g&source=link) · [Mainland China](https://platform.minimaxi.com/subscribe/token-plan?code=GILTJpMTqZ&source=link)
+> - **MiniMax (Mainland China)**: If your API key is from MiniMax's mainland China platform (minimaxi.com), set `"apiBase": "https://api.minimaxi.com/v1"` in your minimax provider config.
+> - **MiniMax thinking mode**: Use `providers.minimaxAnthropic` when you want `reasoningEffort` / thinking mode. MiniMax exposes that capability through its Anthropic-compatible endpoint, so nanobot keeps it as a separate provider instead of guessing MiniMax-specific thinking parameters on the generic OpenAI-compatible `minimax` endpoint. It uses the same `MINIMAX_API_KEY`. Default Anthropic-compatible base URL: `https://api.minimax.io/anthropic`; for mainland China use `https://api.minimaxi.com/anthropic`.
+> - **VolcEngine / BytePlus Coding Plan**: Use dedicated providers `volcengineCodingPlan` or `byteplusCodingPlan` instead of the pay-per-use `volcengine` / `byteplus` providers.
+> - **Zhipu Coding Plan**: If you're on Zhipu's coding plan, set `"apiBase": "https://open.bigmodel.cn/api/coding/paas/v4"` in your zhipu provider config.
+> - **Alibaba Cloud BaiLian**: If you're using Alibaba Cloud BaiLian's OpenAI-compatible endpoint, set `"apiBase": "https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1"` in your dashscope provider config.
+> - **Step Fun (Mainland China)**: If your API key is from Step Fun's mainland China platform (stepfun.com), set `"apiBase": "https://api.stepfun.com/v1"` in your stepfun provider config.

+<summary><b>Adding a New Provider (Developer Guide)</b></summary>
+
+nanobot uses a **Provider Registry** (`nanobot/providers/registry.py`) as the single source of truth.
+Adding a new provider only takes **2 steps** — no if-elif chains to touch.
+
+**Step 1.** Add a `ProviderSpec` entry to `PROVIDERS` in `nanobot/providers/registry.py`:
+
+```python
+ProviderSpec(
+    name="myprovider",                   # config field name
+    keywords=("myprovider", "mymodel"),  # model-name keywords for auto-matching
+    env_key="MYPROVIDER_API_KEY",        # env var name
+    display_name="My Provider",          # shown in `nanobot status`
+    default_api_base="https://api.myprovider.com/v1",  # OpenAI-compatible endpoint
+)
+```
+
+**Step 2.** Add a field to `ProvidersConfig` in `nanobot/config/schema.py`:
+
+```python
+class ProvidersConfig(BaseModel):
+    ...
+    myprovider: ProviderConfig = ProviderConfig()
+```
+
+That's it! Environment variables, model routing, config matching, and `nanobot status` display will all work automatically.
+
+**Common `ProviderSpec` options:**
+
+| Field | Description | Example |
+|-------|-------------|---------|
+| `default_api_base` | OpenAI-compatible base URL | `"https://api.deepseek.com"` |
+| `env_extras` | Additional env vars to set | `(("ZHIPUAI_API_KEY", "{api_key}"),)` |
+| `model_overrides` | Per-model parameter overrides | `(("kimi-k2.5", {"temperature": 1.0}), ("kimi-k2.6", {"temperature": 1.0}),)` |
+| `is_gateway` | Can route any model (like OpenRouter) | `True` |
+| `detect_by_key_prefix` | Detect gateway by API key prefix | `"sk-or-"` |
+| `detect_by_base_keyword` | Detect gateway by API base URL | `"openrouter"` |
+| `strip_model_prefix` | Strip provider prefix before sending to gateway | `True` (for AiHubMix) |
+| `supports_max_completion_tokens` | Use `max_completion_tokens` instead of `max_tokens`; required for providers that reject both being set simultaneously (e.g. VolcEngine) | `True` |
+
+</details>
+
+## Channel Settings
+
+Global settings that apply to all channels. Configure under the `channels` section in `~/.nanobot/config.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "sendProgress": true,
+    "sendToolHints": false,
+    "sendMaxRetries": 3,
+    "transcriptionProvider": "groq",
+    "transcriptionLanguage": null,
+    "telegram": { ... }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+| Setting | Default | Description |
+|---------|---------|-------------|
+| `sendProgress` | `true` | Stream agent's text progress to the channel |
+| `sendToolHints` | `false` | Stream tool-call hints (e.g. `read_file("…")`) |
+| `sendMaxRetries` | `3` | Max delivery attempts per outbound message, including the initial send (0-10 configured, minimum 1 actual attempt) |
+| `transcriptionProvider` | `"groq"` | Voice transcription backend: `"groq"` (free tier, default) or `"openai"`. API key is auto-resolved from the matching provider config. |
+| `transcriptionLanguage` | `null` | Optional ISO-639-1 language hint for audio transcription, e.g. `"en"`, `"ko"`, `"ja"`. |
+
+### Retry Behavior
+
+Retry is intentionally simple.
+
+When a channel `send()` raises, nanobot retries at the channel-manager layer. By default, `channels.sendMaxRetries` is `3`, and that count includes the initial send.
+
+- **Attempt 1**: Send immediately
+- **Attempt 2**: Retry after `1s`
+- **Attempt 3**: Retry after `2s`
+- **Higher retry budgets**: Backoff continues as `1s`, `2s`, `4s`, then stays capped at `4s`
+- **Transient failures**: Network hiccups and temporary API limits often recover on the next attempt
+- **Permanent failures**: Invalid tokens, revoked access, or banned channels will exhaust the retry budget and fail cleanly
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> This design is deliberate: channel implementations should raise on delivery failure, and the channel manager owns the shared retry policy.
+>
+> Some channels may still apply small API-specific retries internally. For example, Telegram separately retries timeout and flood-control errors before surfacing a final failure to the manager.
+>
+> If a channel is completely unreachable, nanobot cannot notify the user through that same channel. Watch logs for `Failed to send to {channel} after N attempts` to spot persistent delivery failures.
+
+## Web Search
+
+> [!TIP]
+> Use `proxy` in `tools.web` to route all web requests (search + fetch) through a proxy:
+> ```json
+> { "tools": { "web": { "proxy": "http://127.0.0.1:7890" } } }
+> ```
+
+nanobot supports multiple web search providers. Configure in `~/.nanobot/config.json` under `tools.web.search`.
+
+By default, web tools are enabled and web search uses `duckduckgo`, so search works out of the box without an API key.
+
+If you want to disable all built-in web tools entirely, set `tools.web.enable` to `false`. This removes both `web_search` and `web_fetch` from the tool list sent to the LLM.
+
+If you need to allow trusted private ranges such as Tailscale / CGNAT addresses, you can explicitly exempt them from SSRF blocking with `tools.ssrfWhitelist`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "ssrfWhitelist": ["100.64.0.0/10"]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+| Provider | Config fields | Env var fallback | Free |

+| `tavily` | `apiKey` | `TAVILY_API_KEY` | No |
+| `jina` | `apiKey` | `JINA_API_KEY` | Free tier (10M tokens) |
+| `kagi` | `apiKey` | `KAGI_API_KEY` | No |
+| `searxng` | `baseUrl` | `SEARXNG_BASE_URL` | Yes (self-hosted) |

+
+### `tools.web.search`
+
+| Option | Type | Default | Description |
+|--------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `provider` | string | `"duckduckgo"` | Search backend: `brave`, `tavily`, `jina`, `searxng`, `duckduckgo` |
+| `apiKey` | string | `""` | API key for Brave or Tavily |
+| `baseUrl` | string | `""` | Base URL for SearXNG |
+| `maxResults` | integer | `5` | Results per search (1–10) |
+
+## MCP (Model Context Protocol)
+
+> [!TIP]
+> The config format is compatible with Claude Desktop / Cursor. You can copy MCP server configs directly from any MCP server's README.
+
+nanobot supports [MCP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) — connect external tool servers and use them as native agent tools.
+
+Add MCP servers to your `config.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "mcpServers": {
+      "filesystem": {
+        "command": "npx",
+        "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/path/to/dir"]
+      },
+      "my-remote-mcp": {
+        "url": "https://example.com/mcp/",
+        "headers": {
+          "Authorization": "Bearer xxxxx"
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Two transport modes are supported:
+
+| Mode | Config | Example |
+|------|--------|---------|
+| **Stdio** | `command` + `args` | Local process via `npx` / `uvx` |
+| **HTTP** | `url` + `headers` (optional) | Remote endpoint (`https://mcp.example.com/sse`) |
+
+Use `toolTimeout` to override the default 30s per-call timeout for slow servers:
+
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "mcpServers": {
+      "my-slow-server": {
+        "url": "https://example.com/mcp/",
+        "toolTimeout": 120
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Use `enabledTools` to register only a subset of tools from an MCP server:
+
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "mcpServers": {
+      "filesystem": {
+        "command": "npx",
+        "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/path/to/dir"],
+        "enabledTools": ["read_file", "mcp_filesystem_write_file"]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+`enabledTools` accepts either the raw MCP tool name (for example `read_file`) or the wrapped nanobot tool name (for example `mcp_filesystem_write_file`).
+
+- Omit `enabledTools`, or set it to `["*"]`, to register all tools.
+- Set `enabledTools` to `[]` to register no tools from that server.
+- Set `enabledTools` to a non-empty list of names to register only that subset.
+
+MCP tools are automatically discovered and registered on startup. The LLM can use them alongside built-in tools — no extra configuration needed.
+
+
+
+
+## Security
+
+> [!TIP]
+> For production deployments, set `"restrictToWorkspace": true` and `"tools.exec.sandbox": "bwrap"` in your config to sandbox the agent.
+> In `v0.1.4.post3` and earlier, an empty `allowFrom` allowed all senders. Since `v0.1.4.post4`, empty `allowFrom` denies all access by default. To allow all senders, set `"allowFrom": ["*"]`.
+
+| Option | Default | Description |
+|--------|---------|-------------|
+| `tools.restrictToWorkspace` | `false` | When `true`, restricts **all** agent tools (shell, file read/write/edit, list) to the workspace directory. Prevents path traversal and out-of-scope access. |
+| `tools.exec.sandbox` | `""` | Sandbox backend for shell commands. Set to `"bwrap"` to wrap exec calls in a [bubblewrap](https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap) sandbox — the process can only see the workspace (read-write) and media directory (read-only); config files and API keys are hidden. Automatically enables `restrictToWorkspace` for file tools. **Linux only** — requires `bwrap` installed (`apt install bubblewrap`; pre-installed in the Docker image). Not available on macOS or Windows (bwrap depends on Linux kernel namespaces). |
+| `tools.exec.enable` | `true` | When `false`, the shell `exec` tool is not registered at all. Use this to completely disable shell command execution. |
+| `tools.exec.pathAppend` | `""` | Extra directories to append to `PATH` when running shell commands (e.g. `/usr/sbin` for `ufw`). |
+| `channels.*.allowFrom` | `[]` (deny all) | Whitelist of user IDs. Empty denies all; use `["*"]` to allow everyone. |
+
+**Docker security**: The official Docker image runs as a non-root user (`nanobot`, UID 1000) with bubblewrap pre-installed. When using `docker-compose.yml`, the container drops all Linux capabilities except `SYS_ADMIN` (required for bwrap's namespace isolation).
+
+
+## Auto Compact
+
+When a user is idle for longer than a configured threshold, nanobot **proactively** compresses the older part of the session context into a summary while keeping a recent legal suffix of live messages. This reduces token cost and first-token latency when the user returns — instead of re-processing a long stale context with an expired KV cache, the model receives a compact summary, the most recent live context, and fresh input.
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "defaults": {
+      "idleCompactAfterMinutes": 15
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+| Option | Default | Description |
+|--------|---------|-------------|
+| `agents.defaults.idleCompactAfterMinutes` | `0` (disabled) | Minutes of idle time before auto-compaction starts. Set to `0` to disable. Recommended: `15` — close to a typical LLM KV cache expiry window, so stale sessions get compacted before the user returns. |
+
+`sessionTtlMinutes` remains accepted as a legacy alias for backward compatibility, but `idleCompactAfterMinutes` is the preferred config key going forward.
+
+How it works:
+1. **Idle detection**: On each idle tick (~1 s), checks all sessions for expiration.
+2. **Background compaction**: Idle sessions summarize the older live prefix via LLM and keep the most recent legal suffix (currently 8 messages).
+3. **Summary injection**: When the user returns, the summary is injected as runtime context (one-shot, not persisted) alongside the retained recent suffix.
+4. **Restart-safe resume**: The summary is also mirrored into session metadata so it can still be recovered after a process restart.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Mental model: "summarize older context, keep the freshest live turns, **and overwrite the session file with the compact form.**" It is not a full `session.clear()`, but it is a write — not a soft cursor move.
+>
+> Concretely, auto compact rewrites `sessions/<key>.jsonl` in place: older messages (including their structured `tool_calls` / `tool_call_id` / `reasoning_content`) are replaced by just the retained recent suffix (currently 8 messages), while the archived prefix is preserved only as a plain-text summary appended to `memory/history.jsonl` (or a `[RAW] ...` flattened dump if LLM summarization fails). The original structured JSON of those turns is no longer recoverable from the session file.
+>
+> This differs from the **token-driven soft consolidation** that fires when a prompt exceeds the context budget: that path only advances an internal `last_consolidated` cursor and leaves the session file untouched, so the raw tool-call trail stays on disk and can still be replayed or audited. If you rely on that trail for debugging or auditing, leave `idleCompactAfterMinutes` at the default `0` and let only the token-driven path run.
+
+## Timezone
+
+Time is context. Context should be precise.
+
+By default, nanobot uses `UTC` for runtime time context. If you want the agent to think in your local time, set `agents.defaults.timezone` to a valid [IANA timezone name](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones):
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "defaults": {
+      "timezone": "Asia/Shanghai"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+This affects runtime time strings shown to the model, such as runtime context and heartbeat prompts. It also becomes the default timezone for cron schedules when a cron expression omits `tz`, and for one-shot `at` times when the ISO datetime has no explicit offset.
+
+Common examples: `UTC`, `America/New_York`, `America/Los_Angeles`, `Europe/London`, `Europe/Berlin`, `Asia/Tokyo`, `Asia/Shanghai`, `Asia/Singapore`, `Australia/Sydney`.
+
+> Need another timezone? Browse the full [IANA Time Zone Database](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones).
+
+## Unified Session
+
+By default, each channel × chat ID combination gets its own session. If you use nanobot across multiple channels (e.g. Telegram + Discord + CLI) and want them to share the same conversation, enable `unifiedSession`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "defaults": {
+      "unifiedSession": true
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+When enabled, all incoming messages — regardless of which channel they arrive on — are routed into a single shared session. Switching from Telegram to Discord (or any other channel) continues the same conversation seamlessly.
+
+| Behavior | `false` (default) | `true` |
+|----------|-------------------|--------|
+| Session key | `channel:chat_id` | `unified:default` |
+| Cross-channel continuity | No | Yes |
+| `/new` clears | Current channel session | Shared session |
+| `/stop` finds tasks | By channel session | By shared session |
+| Existing `session_key_override` (e.g. Telegram thread) | Respected | Still respected — not overwritten |
+
+> This is designed for single-user, multi-device setups. It is **off by default** — existing users see zero behavior change.
+
+## Disabled Skills
+
+nanobot ships with built-in skills, and your workspace can also define custom skills under `skills/`. If you want to hide specific skills from the agent, set `agents.defaults.disabledSkills` to a list of skill directory names:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "defaults": {
+      "disabledSkills": ["github", "weather"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Disabled skills are excluded from the main agent's skill summary, from always-on skill injection, and from subagent skill summaries. This is useful when some bundled skills are unnecessary for your deployment or should not be exposed to end users.
+
+| Option | Default | Description |
+|--------|---------|-------------|
+| `agents.defaults.disabledSkills` | `[]` | List of skill directory names to exclude from loading. Applies to both built-in skills and workspace skills. |

+# Deployment
+
+## Docker
+
+> [!TIP]
+> The `-v ~/.nanobot:/home/nanobot/.nanobot` flag mounts your local config directory into the container, so your config and workspace persist across container restarts.
+> The container runs as user `nanobot` (UID 1000). If you get **Permission denied**, fix ownership on the host first: `sudo chown -R 1000:1000 ~/.nanobot`, or pass `--user $(id -u):$(id -g)` to match your host UID. Podman users can use `--userns=keep-id` instead.
+
+### Docker Compose
+
+```bash
+docker compose run --rm nanobot-cli onboard   # first-time setup
+vim ~/.nanobot/config.json                     # add API keys
+docker compose up -d nanobot-gateway           # start gateway
+```
+
+```bash
+docker compose run --rm nanobot-cli agent -m "Hello!"   # run CLI
+docker compose logs -f nanobot-gateway                   # view logs
+docker compose down                                      # stop
+```
+
+### Docker
+
+```bash
+# Build the image
+docker build -t nanobot .
+
+# Initialize config (first time only)
+docker run -v ~/.nanobot:/home/nanobot/.nanobot --rm nanobot onboard
+
+# Edit config on host to add API keys
+vim ~/.nanobot/config.json
+
+# Run gateway (connects to enabled channels, e.g. Telegram/Discord/Mochat)
+docker run -v ~/.nanobot:/home/nanobot/.nanobot -p 18790:18790 nanobot gateway
+
+# Or run a single command
+docker run -v ~/.nanobot:/home/nanobot/.nanobot --rm nanobot agent -m "Hello!"
+docker run -v ~/.nanobot:/home/nanobot/.nanobot --rm nanobot status
+```
+
+## Linux Service
+
+Run the gateway as a systemd user service so it starts automatically and restarts on failure.
+
+**1. Find the nanobot binary path:**
+
+```bash
+which nanobot   # e.g. /home/user/.local/bin/nanobot
+```
+
+**2. Create the service file** at `~/.config/systemd/user/nanobot-gateway.service` (replace `ExecStart` path if needed):
+
+```ini
+[Unit]
+Description=Nanobot Gateway
+After=network.target
+
+[Service]
+Type=simple
+ExecStart=%h/.local/bin/nanobot gateway
+Restart=always
+RestartSec=10
+NoNewPrivileges=yes
+ProtectSystem=strict
+ReadWritePaths=%h
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=default.target
+```
+
+**3. Enable and start:**
+
+```bash
+systemctl --user daemon-reload
+systemctl --user enable --now nanobot-gateway
+```
+
+**Common operations:**
+
+```bash
+systemctl --user status nanobot-gateway        # check status
+systemctl --user restart nanobot-gateway       # restart after config changes
+journalctl --user -u nanobot-gateway -f        # follow logs
+```
+
+If you edit the `.service` file itself, run `systemctl --user daemon-reload` before restarting.
+
+> **Note:** User services only run while you are logged in. To keep the gateway running after logout, enable lingering:
+>
+> ```bash
+> loginctl enable-linger $USER
+> ```
+
+## macOS LaunchAgent
+
+Use a LaunchAgent when you want `nanobot gateway` to stay online after you log in, without keeping a terminal open.
+
+**1. Get the absolute `nanobot` path:**
+
+```bash
+which nanobot   # e.g. /Users/youruser/.local/bin/nanobot
+```
+
+Use that exact path in the plist. It keeps the Python environment from your install method.
+
+**2. Create `~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.nanobot.gateway.plist`:**
+
+```xml
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
+<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
+<plist version="1.0">

+    <string>/Users/youruser/.local/bin/nanobot</string>
+    <string>gateway</string>
+    <string>--workspace</string>
+    <string>/Users/youruser/.nanobot/workspace</string>
+  </array>
+
+  <key>WorkingDirectory</key>
+  <string>/Users/youruser/.nanobot/workspace</string>
+
+  <key>RunAtLoad</key>
+  <true/>
+
+  <key>KeepAlive</key>
+  <dict>
+    <key>SuccessfulExit</key>
+    <false/>
+  </dict>
+
+  <key>StandardOutPath</key>

+
+  <key>StandardErrorPath</key>
+  <string>/Users/youruser/.nanobot/logs/gateway.error.log</string>
+</dict>
+</plist>
+```
+
+**3. Load and start it:**
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p ~/Library/LaunchAgents ~/.nanobot/logs
+launchctl bootstrap gui/$(id -u) ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.nanobot.gateway.plist
+launchctl enable gui/$(id -u)/ai.nanobot.gateway
+launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/ai.nanobot.gateway
+```
+
+**Common operations:**
+
+```bash
+launchctl list | grep ai.nanobot.gateway
+launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/ai.nanobot.gateway   # restart
+launchctl bootout gui/$(id -u) ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.nanobot.gateway.plist
+```
+
+After editing the plist, run `launchctl bootout ...` and `launchctl bootstrap ...` again.
+
+> **Note:** if startup fails with "address already in use", stop the manually started `nanobot gateway` process first.

+# Memory in nanobot
+
+nanobot's memory is built on a simple belief: memory should feel alive, but it should not feel chaotic.
+
+Good memory is not a pile of notes. It is a quiet system of attention. It notices what is worth keeping, lets go of what no longer needs the spotlight, and turns lived experience into something calm, durable, and useful.
+
+That is the shape of memory in nanobot.
+
+## The Design
+
+nanobot does not treat memory as one giant file.
+
+It separates memory into layers, because different kinds of remembering deserve different tools:
+
+- `session.messages` holds the living short-term conversation.
+- `memory/history.jsonl` is the running archive of compressed past turns.
+- `SOUL.md`, `USER.md`, and `memory/MEMORY.md` are the durable knowledge files.
+- `GitStore` records how those durable files change over time.
+
+This keeps the system light in the moment, but reflective over time.
+
+## The Flow
+
+Memory moves through nanobot in two stages.
+
+### Stage 1: Consolidator
+
+When a conversation grows large enough to pressure the context window, nanobot does not try to carry every old message forever.
+
+Instead, the `Consolidator` summarizes the oldest safe slice of the conversation and appends that summary to `memory/history.jsonl`.
+
+This file is:
+
+- append-only
+- cursor-based
+- optimized for machine consumption first, human inspection second
+
+Each line is a JSON object:
+
+```json
+{"cursor": 42, "timestamp": "2026-04-03 00:02", "content": "- User prefers dark mode\n- Decided to use PostgreSQL"}
+```
+
+It is not the final memory. It is the material from which final memory is shaped.
+
+### Stage 2: Dream
+
+`Dream` is the slower, more thoughtful layer. It runs on a cron schedule by default and can also be triggered manually.
+
+Dream reads:
+
+- new entries from `memory/history.jsonl`
+- the current `SOUL.md`
+- the current `USER.md`
+- the current `memory/MEMORY.md`
+
+Then it works in two phases:
+
+1. It studies what is new and what is already known.
+2. It edits the long-term files surgically, not by rewriting everything, but by making the smallest honest change that keeps memory coherent.
+
+This is why nanobot's memory is not just archival. It is interpretive.
+
+## The Files
+
+```text
+workspace/
+├── SOUL.md              # The bot's long-term voice and communication style
+├── USER.md              # Stable knowledge about the user
+└── memory/
+    ├── MEMORY.md        # Project facts, decisions, and durable context
+    ├── history.jsonl    # Append-only history summaries
+    ├── .cursor          # Consolidator write cursor
+    ├── .dream_cursor    # Dream consumption cursor
+    └── .git/            # Version history for long-term memory files
+```
+
+These files play different roles:
+
+- `SOUL.md` remembers how nanobot should sound.
+- `USER.md` remembers who the user is and what they prefer.
+- `MEMORY.md` remembers what remains true about the work itself.
+- `history.jsonl` remembers what happened on the way there.
+
+## Why `history.jsonl`
+
+The old `HISTORY.md` format was pleasant for casual reading, but it was too fragile as an operational substrate.
+
+`history.jsonl` gives nanobot:
+
+- stable incremental cursors
+- safer machine parsing
+- easier batching
+- cleaner migration and compaction
+- a better boundary between raw history and curated knowledge
+
+You can still search it with familiar tools:
+
+```bash
+# grep
+grep -i "keyword" memory/history.jsonl
+
+# jq
+cat memory/history.jsonl | jq -r 'select(.content | test("keyword"; "i")) | .content' | tail -20
+
+# Python
+python -c "import json; [print(json.loads(l).get('content','')) for l in open('memory/history.jsonl','r',encoding='utf-8') if l.strip() and 'keyword' in l.lower()][-20:]"
+```
+
+The difference is philosophical as much as technical:
+
+- `history.jsonl` is for structure
+- `SOUL.md`, `USER.md`, and `MEMORY.md` are for meaning
+
+## Commands
+
+Memory is not hidden behind the curtain. Users can inspect and guide it.
+
+| Command | What it does |
+|---------|--------------|
+| `/dream` | Run Dream immediately |
+| `/dream-log` | Show the latest Dream memory change |
+| `/dream-log <sha>` | Show a specific Dream change |
+| `/dream-restore` | List recent Dream memory versions |
+| `/dream-restore <sha>` | Restore memory to the state before a specific change |
+
+These commands exist for a reason: automatic memory is powerful, but users should always retain the right to inspect, understand, and restore it.
+
+## Versioned Memory
+
+After Dream changes long-term memory files, nanobot can record that change with `GitStore`.
+
+This gives memory a history of its own:
+
+- you can inspect what changed
+- you can compare versions
+- you can restore a previous state
+
+That turns memory from a silent mutation into an auditable process.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Dream is configured under `agents.defaults.dream`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "defaults": {
+      "dream": {
+        "intervalH": 2,
+        "modelOverride": null,
+        "maxBatchSize": 20,
+        "maxIterations": 10
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+| Field | Meaning |
+|-------|---------|
+| `intervalH` | How often Dream runs, in hours |
+| `modelOverride` | Optional Dream-specific model override |
+| `maxBatchSize` | How many history entries Dream processes per run |
+| `maxIterations` | The tool budget for Dream's editing phase |
+
+In practical terms:
+
+- `modelOverride: null` means Dream uses the same model as the main agent. Set it only if you want Dream to run on a different model.
+- `maxBatchSize` controls how many new `history.jsonl` entries Dream consumes in one run. Larger batches catch up faster; smaller batches are lighter and steadier.
+- `maxIterations` limits how many read/edit steps Dream can take while updating `SOUL.md`, `USER.md`, and `MEMORY.md`. It is a safety budget, not a quality score.
+- `intervalH` is the normal way to configure Dream. Internally it runs as an `every` schedule, not as a cron expression.
+
+Legacy note:
+
+- Older source-based configs may still contain `dream.cron`. nanobot continues to honor it for backward compatibility, but new configs should use `intervalH`.
+- Older source-based configs may still contain `dream.model`. nanobot continues to honor it for backward compatibility, but new configs should use `modelOverride`.
+
+## In Practice
+
+What this means in daily use is simple:
+
+- conversations can stay fast without carrying infinite context
+- durable facts can become clearer over time instead of noisier
+- the user can inspect and restore memory when needed
+
+Memory should not feel like a dump. It should feel like continuity.
+
+That is what this design is trying to protect.

+# Multiple Instances
+
+Run multiple nanobot instances simultaneously with separate configs and runtime data. Use `--config` as the main entrypoint. Optionally pass `--workspace` during `onboard` when you want to initialize or update the saved workspace for a specific instance.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+If you want each instance to have its own dedicated workspace from the start, pass both `--config` and `--workspace` during onboarding.
+
+**Initialize instances:**
+
+```bash
+# Create separate instance configs and workspaces
+nanobot onboard --config ~/.nanobot-telegram/config.json --workspace ~/.nanobot-telegram/workspace
+nanobot onboard --config ~/.nanobot-discord/config.json --workspace ~/.nanobot-discord/workspace
+nanobot onboard --config ~/.nanobot-feishu/config.json --workspace ~/.nanobot-feishu/workspace
+```
+
+**Configure each instance:**
+
+Edit `~/.nanobot-telegram/config.json`, `~/.nanobot-discord/config.json`, etc. with different channel settings. The workspace you passed during `onboard` is saved into each config as that instance's default workspace.
+
+**Run instances:**
+
+```bash
+# Instance A - Telegram bot
+nanobot gateway --config ~/.nanobot-telegram/config.json
+
+# Instance B - Discord bot
+nanobot gateway --config ~/.nanobot-discord/config.json
+
+# Instance C - Feishu bot with custom port
+nanobot gateway --config ~/.nanobot-feishu/config.json --port 18792
+```
+
+## Path Resolution
+
+When using `--config`, nanobot derives its runtime data directory from the config file location. The workspace still comes from `agents.defaults.workspace` unless you override it with `--workspace`.
+
+To open a CLI session against one of these instances locally:
+
+```bash
+nanobot agent -c ~/.nanobot-telegram/config.json -m "Hello from Telegram instance"
+nanobot agent -c ~/.nanobot-discord/config.json -m "Hello from Discord instance"
+
+# Optional one-off workspace override
+nanobot agent -c ~/.nanobot-telegram/config.json -w /tmp/nanobot-telegram-test
+```
+
+> `nanobot agent` starts a local CLI agent using the selected workspace/config. It does not attach to or proxy through an already running `nanobot gateway` process.
+
+| Component | Resolved From | Example |
+|-----------|---------------|---------|
+| **Config** | `--config` path | `~/.nanobot-A/config.json` |
+| **Workspace** | `--workspace` or config | `~/.nanobot-A/workspace/` |
+| **Cron Jobs** | config directory | `~/.nanobot-A/cron/` |
+| **Media / runtime state** | config directory | `~/.nanobot-A/media/` |
+
+## How It Works
+
+- `--config` selects which config file to load
+- By default, the workspace comes from `agents.defaults.workspace` in that config
+- If you pass `--workspace`, it overrides the workspace from the config file
+
+## Minimal Setup
+
+1. Copy your base config into a new instance directory.
+2. Set a different `agents.defaults.workspace` for that instance.
+3. Start the instance with `--config`.
+
+Example config:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "defaults": {
+      "workspace": "~/.nanobot-telegram/workspace",
+      "model": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6"
+    }
+  },
+  "channels": {
+    "telegram": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "token": "YOUR_TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN"
+    }
+  },
+  "gateway": {
+    "host": "127.0.0.1",
+    "port": 18790
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Start separate instances:
+
+```bash
+nanobot gateway --config ~/.nanobot-telegram/config.json
+nanobot gateway --config ~/.nanobot-discord/config.json
+```
+
+Each gateway instance also exposes a lightweight HTTP health endpoint on
+`gateway.host:gateway.port`. By default, the gateway binds to `127.0.0.1`,
+so the endpoint stays local unless you explicitly set `gateway.host` to a
+public or LAN-facing address.
+
+- `GET /health` returns `{"status":"ok"}`
+- Other paths return `404`
+
+Override workspace for one-off runs when needed:
+
+```bash
+nanobot gateway --config ~/.nanobot-telegram/config.json --workspace /tmp/nanobot-telegram-test
+```
+
+## Common Use Cases
+
+- Run separate bots for Telegram, Discord, Feishu, and other platforms
+- Keep testing and production instances isolated
+- Use different models or providers for different teams
+- Serve multiple tenants with separate configs and runtime data
+
+## Notes
+
+- Each instance must use a different port if they run at the same time
+- Use a different workspace per instance if you want isolated memory, sessions, and skills
+- `--workspace` overrides the workspace defined in the config file
+- Cron jobs and runtime media/state are derived from the config directory

+# My Tool
+
+Let the agent sense and adjust its own runtime state — like asking a coworker "are you busy? can you switch to a bigger monitor?"
+
+## Why You Need It
+
+Normal tools let the agent operate on the outside world (read/write files, search code). But the agent knows nothing about itself — it doesn't know which model it's running on, how many iterations are left, or how many tokens it has consumed.
+
+My tool fills this gap. With it, the agent can:
+
+- **Know who it is**: What model am I using? Where is my workspace? How many iterations remain?
+- **Adapt on the fly**: Complex task? Expand the context window. Simple chat? Switch to a faster model.
+- **Remember across turns**: Store notes in your scratchpad that persist into the next conversation turn.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Enabled by default (read-only mode). The agent can check its state but not set it.
+
+```yaml
+tools:
+  my:
+    enable: true       # default: true
+    allow_set: false   # default: false (read-only)
+```
+
+To allow the agent to set its configuration (e.g. switch models, adjust parameters), set `tools.my.allow_set: true`.
+
+Legacy `tools.myEnabled` / `tools.mySet` keys are auto-migrated on load, and
+rewritten in-place the next time `nanobot onboard` refreshes the config.
+
+All modifications are held in memory only — restart restores defaults.
+
+---
+
+## check — Check "my" current state
+
+Without parameters, returns a key config overview:
+
+```text
+my(action="check")
+# → max_iterations: 40
+#   context_window_tokens: 65536
+#   model: 'anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514'
+#   workspace: PosixPath('/tmp/workspace')
+#   provider_retry_mode: 'standard'
+#   max_tool_result_chars: 16000
+#   _current_iteration: 3
+#   _last_usage: {'prompt_tokens': 45000, 'completion_tokens': 8000}
+#   Note: prompt_tokens is cumulative across all turns, not current context window occupancy.
+```
+
+With a key parameter, drill into a specific config:
+
+```text
+my(action="check", key="_last_usage.prompt_tokens")
+# → How many prompt tokens I've used so far
+
+my(action="check", key="model")
+# → What model I'm currently running on
+
+my(action="check", key="web_config.enable")
+# → Whether web search is enabled
+```
+
+### What you can do with it
+
+| Scenario | How |
+|----------|-----|
+| "What model are you using?" | `check("model")` |
+| "How many more tool calls can you make?" | `check("max_iterations")` minus `check("_current_iteration")` |
+| "How many tokens has this conversation used?" | `check("_last_usage")` — cumulative across all turns |
+| "Where is your working directory?" | `check("workspace")` |
+| "Show me your full config" | `check()` |
+| "Are there any subagents running?" | `check("subagents")` — shows phase, iteration, elapsed time, tool events |
+
+---
+
+## set — Runtime tuning
+
+Changes take effect immediately, no restart required.
+
+```text
+my(action="set", key="max_iterations", value=80)
+# → Bump iteration limit from 40 to 80
+
+my(action="set", key="model", value="fast-model")
+# → Switch to a faster model
+
+my(action="set", key="context_window_tokens", value=131072)
+# → Expand context window for long documents
+```
+
+You can also store custom state in your scratchpad:
+
+```text
+my(action="set", key="current_project", value="nanobot")
+my(action="set", key="user_style_preference", value="concise")
+my(action="set", key="task_complexity", value="high")
+# → These values persist into the next conversation turn
+```
+
+### Protected parameters
+
+These parameters have type and range validation — invalid values are rejected:
+
+| Parameter | Type | Range | Purpose |
+|-----------|------|-------|---------|
+| `max_iterations` | int | 1–100 | Max tool calls per conversation turn |
+| `context_window_tokens` | int | 4,096–1,000,000 | Context window size |
+| `model` | str | non-empty | LLM model to use |
+
+Other parameters (e.g. `workspace`, `provider_retry_mode`, `max_tool_result_chars`) can be set freely, as long as the value is JSON-safe.
+
+---
+
+## Practical Scenarios
+
+### "This task is complex, I need more room"
+
+```text
+Agent: This codebase is large, let me expand my context window to handle it.
+→ my(action="set", key="context_window_tokens", value=131072)
+```
+
+### "Simple question, don't waste compute"
+
+```text
+Agent: This is a straightforward question, let me switch to a faster model.
+→ my(action="set", key="model", value="fast-model")
+```
+
+### "Remember user preferences across turns"
+
+```text
+Turn 1: my(action="set", key="user_prefers_concise", value=True)
+Turn 2: my(action="check", key="user_prefers_concise")
+# → True (still remembers the user likes concise replies)
+```
+
+### "Self-diagnosis"
+
+```text
+User: "Why aren't you searching the web?"
+Agent: Let me check my web config.
+→ my(action="check", key="web_config.enable")
+# → False
+Agent: Web search is disabled — please set web.enable: true in your config.
+```
+
+### "Token budget management"
+
+```text
+Agent: Let me check how much budget I have left.
+→ my(action="check", key="_last_usage")
+# → {"prompt_tokens": 45000, "completion_tokens": 8000}
+Agent: I've used ~53k tokens total so far. I'll keep my remaining replies concise.
+```
+
+### "Subagent monitoring"
+
+```text
+Agent: Let me check on the background tasks.
+→ my(action="check", key="subagents")
+# → 2 subagent(s):
+#   [task-1] 'Code review'
+#     phase: running, iteration: 5, elapsed: 12.3s
+#     tools: read(✓), grep(✓)
+#     usage: {'prompt_tokens': 8000, 'completion_tokens': 1200}
+#   [task-2] 'Write tests'
+#     phase: pending, iteration: 0, elapsed: 0.2s
+#     tools: none
+Agent: The code review is progressing well. The test task hasn't started yet.
+```
+
+---
+
+## Safety Mechanisms
+
+Core design principle: **All modifications live in memory only. Restart restores defaults.** The agent cannot cause persistent damage.
+
+### Off-limits (BLOCKED)
+
+Cannot be checked or modified — fully hidden:
+
+| Category | Attributes | Reason |
+|----------|-----------|--------|
+| Core infrastructure | `bus`, `provider`, `_running` | Changes would crash the system |
+| Tool registry | `tools` | Must not remove its own tools |
+| Subsystems | `runner`, `sessions`, `consolidator`, etc. | Affects other users/sessions |
+| Sensitive data | `_mcp_servers`, `_pending_queues`, etc. | Contains credentials and message routing |
+| Security boundaries | `restrict_to_workspace`, `channels_config` | Bypassing would violate isolation |
+| Python internals | `__class__`, `__dict__`, etc. | Prevents sandbox escape |
+
+### Read-only (check only)
+
+Can be checked but not set:
+
+| Category | Attributes | Reason |
+|----------|-----------|--------|
+| Subagent manager | `subagents` | Observable, but replacing breaks the system |
+| Execution config | `exec_config` | Can check sandbox/enable status, cannot change it |
+| Web config | `web_config` | Can check enable status, cannot change it |
+| Iteration counter | `_current_iteration` | Updated by runner only |
+
+### Sensitive field protection
+
+Sub-fields matching sensitive names (`api_key`, `password`, `secret`, `token`, etc.) are blocked from both check and set, regardless of parent path. This prevents credential leaks via dot-path traversal (e.g. `web_config.search.api_key`).

+# OpenAI-Compatible API
+
+nanobot can expose a minimal OpenAI-compatible endpoint for local integrations:
+
+```bash
+pip install "nanobot-ai[api]"
+nanobot serve
+```
+
+By default, the API binds to `127.0.0.1:8900`. You can change this in `config.json`.
+
+## Behavior
+
+- Session isolation: pass `"session_id"` in the request body to isolate conversations; omit for a shared default session (`api:default`)
+- Single-message input: each request must contain exactly one `user` message
+- Fixed model: omit `model`, or pass the same model shown by `/v1/models`
+- Streaming: set `stream=true` to receive Server-Sent Events (`text/event-stream`) with OpenAI-compatible delta chunks, terminated by `data: [DONE]`; omit or set `stream=false` for a single JSON response
+- **File uploads**: supports images, PDF, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), PowerPoint (.pptx) via JSON base64 or `multipart/form-data` (max 10MB per file)
+- API requests run in the synthetic `api` channel, so the `message` tool does **not** automatically deliver to Telegram/Discord/etc. To proactively send to another chat, call `message` with an explicit `channel` and `chat_id` for an enabled channel.
+
+Example tool call for cross-channel delivery from an API session:
+
+```json
+{
+  "content": "Build finished successfully.",
+  "channel": "telegram",
+  "chat_id": "123456789"
+}
+```
+
+If `channel` points to a channel that is not enabled in your config, nanobot will queue the outbound event but no platform delivery will occur.
+
+## Endpoints
+
+- `GET /health`
+- `GET /v1/models`
+- `POST /v1/chat/completions`
+
+## curl
+
+```bash
+curl http://127.0.0.1:8900/v1/chat/completions \

+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{

+      {"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "data:image/png;base64,iVBOR..."}}
+    ]}]
+  }'
+```
+
+## File Upload (multipart/form-data)
+
+Upload any supported file type (images, PDF, Word, Excel, PPT) via multipart:
+
+```bash
+# Single file
+curl http://127.0.0.1:8900/v1/chat/completions \
+  -F "message=Summarize this report" \
+  -F "files=@report.docx"

+  -F "message=Compare these files" \
+  -F "files=@chart.png" \
+  -F "files=@data.xlsx" \
+  -F "session_id=my-session"
+```
+
+Supported file types:
+- **Images**: PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP (sent to AI as base64 for vision analysis)
+- **Documents**: PDF, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), PowerPoint (.pptx) (text extracted and sent to AI)
+- **Text**: TXT, Markdown, CSV, JSON, etc. (read directly)

+# Python SDK
+
+Use nanobot as a library — no CLI, no gateway, just Python.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+
+from nanobot import Nanobot
+
+
+async def main() -> None:
+    bot = Nanobot.from_config()
+    result = await bot.run("What time is it in Tokyo?")
+    print(result.content)
+
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+`Nanobot.from_config()` reuses your normal `~/.nanobot/config.json`, so the SDK follows the same provider, model, tools, and workspace defaults as the CLI unless you override them.
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Use a specific config or workspace
+
+```python
+from nanobot import Nanobot
+
+bot = Nanobot.from_config(
+    config_path="~/.nanobot/config.json",
+    workspace="/my/project",
+)
+```
+
+### Isolate conversations with `session_key`
+
+Different session keys keep independent conversation history:
+
+```python
+await bot.run("hi", session_key="user-alice")
+await bot.run("hi", session_key="task-42")
+```
+
+### Attach hooks for observability
+
+Hooks let you inspect tool calls, streaming, and iteration state without modifying nanobot internals:
+
+```python
+from nanobot.agent import AgentHook, AgentHookContext
+
+
+class AuditHook(AgentHook):
+    async def before_execute_tools(self, context: AgentHookContext) -> None:
+        for tc in context.tool_calls:
+            print(f"[tool] {tc.name}")
+
+
+result = await bot.run("Review this change", hooks=[AuditHook()])
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+### `Nanobot.from_config(config_path=None, *, workspace=None)`
+
+Create a `Nanobot` instance from a config file.
+
+| Param | Type | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `config_path` | `str \| Path \| None` | `None` | Path to `config.json`. Defaults to `~/.nanobot/config.json`. |
+| `workspace` | `str \| Path \| None` | `None` | Override the workspace directory from config. |
+
+Raises `FileNotFoundError` if an explicit config path does not exist.
+
+### `await bot.run(message, *, session_key="sdk:default", hooks=None)`
+
+Run the agent once and return a `RunResult`.
+
+| Param | Type | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `message` | `str` | *(required)* | The user message to process. |
+| `session_key` | `str` | `"sdk:default"` | Session identifier for conversation isolation. Different keys get independent history. |
+| `hooks` | `list[AgentHook] \| None` | `None` | Lifecycle hooks for this run only. |
+
+### `RunResult`
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `content` | `str` | The agent's final text response. |
+| `tools_used` | `list[str]` | Reserved for richer SDK introspection; may be empty in current versions. |
+| `messages` | `list[dict]` | Reserved for richer SDK introspection; may be empty in current versions. |
+
+## Hooks
+
+Hooks let you observe or customize the agent loop. Subclass `AgentHook` and override the methods you need.
+
+### Hook lifecycle
+
+| Method | When |
+|--------|------|
+| `wants_streaming()` | Return `True` if you want token-by-token `on_stream()` callbacks |
+| `before_iteration(context)` | Before each LLM call |
+| `on_stream(context, delta)` | On each streamed token when streaming is enabled |
+| `on_stream_end(context, *, resuming)` | When streaming finishes |
+| `before_execute_tools(context)` | Before tool execution |
+| `after_iteration(context)` | After each iteration |
+| `finalize_content(context, content)` | Transform final output text |
+
+Useful fields on `AgentHookContext` include:
+
+- `iteration`
+- `messages`
+- `response`
+- `usage`
+- `tool_calls`
+- `tool_results`
+- `tool_events`
+- `final_content`
+- `stop_reason`
+- `error`
+
+### Example: audit tool calls
+
+```python
+from nanobot.agent import AgentHook, AgentHookContext
+
+
+class AuditHook(AgentHook):
+    def __init__(self) -> None:
+        super().__init__()
+        self.calls: list[str] = []
+
+    async def before_execute_tools(self, context: AgentHookContext) -> None:
+        for tc in context.tool_calls:
+            self.calls.append(tc.name)
+            print(f"[audit] {tc.name}({tc.arguments})")
+```
+
+```python
+hook = AuditHook()
+result = await bot.run("List files in /tmp", hooks=[hook])
+print(result.content)
+print(f"Tools observed: {hook.calls}")
+```
+
+### Example: receive streaming tokens
+
+```python
+from nanobot.agent import AgentHook, AgentHookContext
+
+
+class StreamingHook(AgentHook):
+    def wants_streaming(self) -> bool:
+        return True
+
+    async def on_stream(self, context: AgentHookContext, delta: str) -> None:
+        print(delta, end="", flush=True)
+
+    async def on_stream_end(self, context: AgentHookContext, *, resuming: bool) -> None:
+        print()
+```
+
+### Compose multiple hooks
+
+Pass multiple hooks when you want to combine behaviors:
+
+```python
+result = await bot.run("hi", hooks=[AuditHook(), MetricsHook()])
+```
+
+Async hook methods are fan-out with error isolation. `finalize_content` is a pipeline: each hook receives the previous hook's output.
+
+### Example: post-process final content
+
+```python
+from nanobot.agent import AgentHook
+
+
+class Censor(AgentHook):
+    def finalize_content(self, context, content):
+        return content.replace("secret", "***") if content else content
+```
+

+    "openrouter": {
+      "apiKey": "sk-or-v1-xxx"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+*Set your model* (optionally pin a provider — defaults to auto-detection):
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "defaults": {
+      "model": "anthropic/claude-opus-4-5",
+      "provider": "openrouter"

+# WebSocket Server Channel
+
+Nanobot can act as a WebSocket server, allowing external clients (web apps, CLIs, scripts) to interact with the agent in real time via persistent connections.
+
+## Features
+
+- Bidirectional real-time communication over WebSocket
+- Streaming support — receive agent responses token by token
+- Token-based authentication (static tokens and short-lived issued tokens)
+- Multi-chat multiplexing — one connection can run many concurrent `chat_id`s
+- TLS/SSL support (WSS) with enforced TLSv1.2 minimum
+- Client allow-list via `allowFrom`
+- Auto-cleanup of dead connections
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Configure
+
+Add to `config.json` under `channels.websocket`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "websocket": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "host": "127.0.0.1",
+      "port": 8765,
+      "path": "/",
+      "websocketRequiresToken": false,
+      "allowFrom": ["*"],
+      "streaming": true
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Start nanobot
+
+```bash
+nanobot gateway
+```
+
+You should see:
+
+```text
+WebSocket server listening on ws://127.0.0.1:8765/
+```
+
+### 3. Connect a client
+
+```bash
+# Using websocat
+websocat ws://127.0.0.1:8765/?client_id=alice
+
+# Using Python
+import asyncio, json, websockets
+
+async def main():
+    async with websockets.connect("ws://127.0.0.1:8765/?client_id=alice") as ws:
+        ready = json.loads(await ws.recv())
+        print(ready)  # {"event": "ready", "chat_id": "...", "client_id": "alice"}
+        await ws.send(json.dumps({"content": "Hello nanobot!"}))
+        reply = json.loads(await ws.recv())
+        print(reply["text"])
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+## Connection URL
+
+```text
+ws://{host}:{port}{path}?client_id={id}&token={token}
+```
+
+| Parameter | Required | Description |
+|-----------|----------|-------------|
+| `client_id` | No | Identifier for `allowFrom` authorization. Auto-generated as `anon-xxxxxxxxxxxx` if omitted. Truncated to 128 chars. |
+| `token` | Conditional | Authentication token. Required when `websocketRequiresToken` is `true` or `token` (static secret) is configured. |
+
+## Wire Protocol
+
+All frames are JSON text. Each message has an `event` field.
+
+### Server → Client
+
+**`ready`** — sent immediately after connection is established:
+
+```json
+{
+  "event": "ready",
+  "chat_id": "uuid-v4",
+  "client_id": "alice"
+}
+```
+
+**`message`** — full agent response:
+
+```json
+{
+  "event": "message",
+  "chat_id": "uuid-v4",
+  "text": "Hello! How can I help?",
+  "media": ["/tmp/image.png"],
+  "reply_to": "msg-id"
+}
+```
+
+`media` and `reply_to` are only present when applicable.
+
+**`delta`** — streaming text chunk (only when `streaming: true`):
+
+```json
+{
+  "event": "delta",
+  "chat_id": "uuid-v4",
+  "text": "Hello",
+  "stream_id": "s1"
+}
+```
+
+**`stream_end`** — signals the end of a streaming segment:
+
+```json
+{
+  "event": "stream_end",
+  "chat_id": "uuid-v4",
+  "stream_id": "s1"
+}
+```
+
+**`attached`** — confirmation for `new_chat` / `attach` inbound envelopes (see [Multi-chat multiplexing](#multi-chat-multiplexing)):
+
+```json
+{"event": "attached", "chat_id": "uuid-v4"}
+```
+
+**`error`** — soft error for malformed inbound envelopes. The connection stays open:
+
+```json
+{"event": "error", "detail": "invalid chat_id"}
+```
+
+### Client → Server
+
+**Legacy (default chat):** send a plain string, or a JSON object with a recognized text field:
+
+```json
+"Hello nanobot!"
+```
+
+```json
+{"content": "Hello nanobot!"}
+```
+
+Recognized fields: `content`, `text`, `message` (checked in that order). Invalid JSON is treated as plain text. These frames route to the connection's default `chat_id` (the one announced in `ready`).
+
+**Typed envelopes (multi-chat):** any JSON object with a string `type` field is a typed envelope:
+
+| `type` | Fields | Effect |
+|--------|--------|--------|
+| `new_chat` | — | Server mints a new `chat_id`, subscribes this connection, replies with `attached`. |
+| `attach` | `chat_id` | Subscribe to an existing `chat_id` (e.g. after a page reload). Replies with `attached`. |
+| `message` | `chat_id`, `content` | Send `content` on `chat_id`. First use auto-attaches; no explicit `attach` needed. |
+
+See [Multi-chat multiplexing](#multi-chat-multiplexing) for the full flow.
+
+## Configuration Reference
+
+All fields go under `channels.websocket` in `config.json`.
+
+### Connection
+
+| Field | Type | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `enabled` | bool | `false` | Enable the WebSocket server. |
+| `host` | string | `"127.0.0.1"` | Bind address. Use `"0.0.0.0"` to accept external connections. |
+| `port` | int | `8765` | Listen port. |
+| `path` | string | `"/"` | WebSocket upgrade path. Trailing slashes are normalized (root `/` is preserved). |
+| `maxMessageBytes` | int | `37748736` | Maximum inbound message size in bytes (1 KB – 40 MB). Default (36 MB) is sized to accept up to 4 base64-encoded image attachments at 8 MB each; lower it if the channel only carries text. |
+
+### Authentication
+
+| Field | Type | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `token` | string | `""` | Static shared secret. When set, clients must provide `?token=<value>` matching this secret (timing-safe comparison). Issued tokens are also accepted as a fallback. |
+| `websocketRequiresToken` | bool | `true` | When `true` and no static `token` is configured, clients must still present a valid issued token. Set to `false` to allow unauthenticated connections (only safe for local/trusted networks). |
+| `tokenIssuePath` | string | `""` | HTTP path for issuing short-lived tokens. Must differ from `path`. See [Token Issuance](#token-issuance). |
+| `tokenIssueSecret` | string | `""` | Secret required to obtain tokens via the issue endpoint. If empty, any client can obtain tokens (logged as a warning). |
+| `tokenTtlS` | int | `300` | Time-to-live for issued tokens in seconds (30 – 86,400). |
+
+### Access Control
+
+| Field | Type | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `allowFrom` | list of string | `["*"]` | Allowed `client_id` values. `"*"` allows all; `[]` denies all. |
+
+### Streaming
+
+| Field | Type | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `streaming` | bool | `true` | Enable streaming mode. The agent sends `delta` + `stream_end` frames instead of a single `message`. |
+
+### Keep-alive
+
+| Field | Type | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `pingIntervalS` | float | `20.0` | WebSocket ping interval in seconds (5 – 300). |
+| `pingTimeoutS` | float | `20.0` | Time to wait for a pong before closing the connection (5 – 300). |
+
+### TLS/SSL
+
+| Field | Type | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `sslCertfile` | string | `""` | Path to the TLS certificate file (PEM). Both `sslCertfile` and `sslKeyfile` must be set to enable WSS. |
+| `sslKeyfile` | string | `""` | Path to the TLS private key file (PEM). Minimum TLS version is enforced as TLSv1.2. |
+
+## Token Issuance
+
+For production deployments where `websocketRequiresToken: true`, use short-lived tokens instead of embedding static secrets in clients.
+
+### How it works
+
+1. Client sends `GET {tokenIssuePath}` with `Authorization: Bearer {tokenIssueSecret}` (or `X-Nanobot-Auth` header).
+2. Server responds with a one-time-use token:
+
+```json
+{"token": "nbwt_aBcDeFg...", "expires_in": 300}
+```
+
+3. Client opens WebSocket with `?token=nbwt_aBcDeFg...&client_id=...`.
+4. The token is consumed (single use) and cannot be reused.
+
+### Example setup
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "websocket": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "port": 8765,
+      "path": "/ws",
+      "tokenIssuePath": "/auth/token",
+      "tokenIssueSecret": "your-secret-here",
+      "tokenTtlS": 300,
+      "websocketRequiresToken": true,
+      "allowFrom": ["*"],
+      "streaming": true
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Client flow:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Obtain a token
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer your-secret-here" http://127.0.0.1:8765/auth/token
+
+# 2. Connect using the token
+websocat "ws://127.0.0.1:8765/ws?client_id=alice&token=nbwt_aBcDeFg..."
+```
+
+### Limits
+
+- Issued tokens are single-use — each token can only complete one handshake.
+- Outstanding tokens are capped at 10,000. Requests beyond this return HTTP 429.
+- Expired tokens are purged lazily on each issue or validation request.
+
+## Multi-chat multiplexing
+
+A single WebSocket can carry many concurrent chats. The server tracks `chat_id -> {connections}` as a fan-out set, so the same chat can also be mirrored across multiple connections (e.g. two browser tabs).
+
+### Typical flow (web UI with a sidebar)
+
+```text
+client                                server
+  | --- connect -------------------->  |
+  | <-- {"event":"ready",              |
+  |      "chat_id":"d3..."}   (default)|
+  |                                     |
+  | --- {"type":"new_chat"} --------->  |
+  | <-- {"event":"attached",            |
+  |      "chat_id":"a1..."}             |
+  |                                     |
+  | --- {"type":"message",              |
+  |      "chat_id":"a1...",             |
+  |      "content":"hi"} ------------>  |
+  | <-- {"event":"delta", ...}          |
+  | <-- {"event":"stream_end", ...}     |
+  |                                     |
+  | --- {"type":"attach",               |  # after page reload
+  |      "chat_id":"a1..."} --------->  |
+  | <-- {"event":"attached", ...}       |
+```
+
+### Rules
+
+- Every outbound event carries `chat_id`. Clients must dispatch by that field.
+- `chat_id` format: `^[A-Za-z0-9_:-]{1,64}$`. Non-matching values return `error`.
+- `message` auto-attaches on first use — no separate `attach` is required for chats the server minted (`new_chat`) on the same connection.
+- Errors (invalid envelope, unknown `type`, bad `chat_id`) are soft: the server replies with `{"event":"error","detail":"..."}` and keeps the connection open.
+
+### Backward compatibility
+
+Legacy clients that only send plain text or `{"content": ...}` keep working unchanged: those frames route to the connection's default `chat_id` (the one from `ready`). No config flag is needed.
+
+### Security boundary
+
+`chat_id` is a *capability*: anyone holding a valid WebSocket auth credential and the chat_id can attach to that conversation and see its output. This is safe for nanobot's local, single-user model. Multi-tenant deployments should namespace chat_ids per user (or introduce a per-tenant auth gate) — nanobot does not do this today.
+
+## Security Notes
+
+- **Timing-safe comparison**: Static token validation uses `hmac.compare_digest` to prevent timing attacks.
+- **Defense in depth**: `allowFrom` is checked at both the HTTP handshake level and the message level.
+- **chat_id as capability**: see [Multi-chat multiplexing](#multi-chat-multiplexing). Auth on the WebSocket handshake is the single line of defense; callers who pass it can attach to any chat_id they know.
+- **TLS enforcement**: When SSL is enabled, TLSv1.2 is the minimum allowed version.
+- **Default-secure**: `websocketRequiresToken` defaults to `true`. Explicitly set it to `false` only on trusted networks.
+
+## Media Files
+
+Outbound `message` events may include a `media` field containing local filesystem paths. Remote clients cannot access these files directly — they need either:
+
+- A shared filesystem mount, or
+- An HTTP file server serving the nanobot media directory
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Trusted local network (no auth)
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "websocket": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "host": "0.0.0.0",
+      "port": 8765,
+      "websocketRequiresToken": false,
+      "allowFrom": ["*"],
+      "streaming": true
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Static token (simple auth)
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "websocket": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "token": "my-shared-secret",
+      "allowFrom": ["alice", "bob"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Clients connect with `?token=my-shared-secret&client_id=alice`.
+
+### Public endpoint with issued tokens
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "websocket": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "host": "0.0.0.0",
+      "port": 8765,
+      "path": "/ws",
+      "tokenIssuePath": "/auth/token",
+      "tokenIssueSecret": "production-secret",
+      "websocketRequiresToken": true,
+      "sslCertfile": "/etc/ssl/certs/server.pem",
+      "sslKeyfile": "/etc/ssl/private/server-key.pem",
+      "allowFrom": ["*"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Custom path
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "websocket": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "path": "/chat/ws",
+      "allowFrom": ["*"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Clients connect to `ws://127.0.0.1:8765/chat/ws?client_id=...`. Trailing slashes are normalized, so `/chat/ws/` works the same.

+"""QQ channel implementation using botpy SDK.
+
+Inbound:
+- Parse QQ botpy messages (C2C / Group)
+- Download attachments to media dir using chunked streaming write (memory-safe)
+- Publish to Nanobot bus via BaseChannel._handle_message()
+- Content includes a clear, actionable "Received files:" list with local paths
+
+Outbound:
+- Send attachments (msg.media) first via QQ rich media API (base64 upload + msg_type=7)
+- Then send text (plain or markdown)
+- msg.media supports local paths, file:// paths, and http(s) URLs
+
+Notes:
+- QQ restricts many audio/video formats. We conservatively classify as image vs file.
+- Attachment structures differ across botpy versions; we try multiple field candidates.
