+# 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/). It keeps the core agent loop small and readable while still supporting chat channels, memory, MCP and practical deployment paths, so you can go from local setup to a long-running personal agent with minimal overhead.

+
+- **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.
+
+<p align="center">

+
+**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
+bun install
+bun run dev
+```
 
 ## 🏗️ Architecture

+  <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

+# 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"]

+        # 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)

+
+### 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"

+
+> `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. Discord threads under an allowed parent channel are also allowed; for Forum channels, allowing the parent Forum channel allows all threads/posts in that forum.

+- **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.

+
+## 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.

+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+> For local servers that don't require authentication, set `apiKey` to `null`.
+>
+> `custom` is the right choice for providers that expose an OpenAI-compatible **chat completions** API. It does **not** force third-party endpoints onto the OpenAI/Azure **Responses API**.
+>
+> If your proxy or gateway is specifically Responses-API-compatible, use the `azure_openai` provider shape instead and point `apiBase` at that endpoint:
+>
+> ```json
+> {
+>   "providers": {
+>     "azure_openai": {
+>       "apiKey": "your-api-key",
+>       "apiBase": "https://api.your-provider.com",

+>     }
+>   }
+> }
+> ```
+>
+> In short: **chat-completions-compatible endpoint → `custom`**; **Responses-compatible endpoint → `azure_openai`**.
+
+Some OpenAI-compatible gateways expose request-body extensions such as vLLM guided decoding or local sampling controls. Put those under `extraBody`; nanobot merges them into the chat-completions request body after its provider defaults:
+
+```json
+{

+
+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"`. |
+
+`sendProgress` and `sendToolHints` can also be overridden per channel. The
+global values stay as defaults for channels that do not set their own value:
+
+```json
+{
+  "channels": {
+    "sendProgress": true,
+    "sendToolHints": false,
+    "telegram": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "sendProgress": false
+    },
+    "websocket": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "sendToolHints": true
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 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 Tools
+
+nanobot incorporates basic tools for accessing the web. These include searching via APIs, and fetching arbitrary web pages in Markdown format. They are enabled by default, and can be configured in `~/.nanobot/config.json` under `tools.web`.
+
+If you want to disable them, which removes both `web_search` and `web_fetch` from the tool list sent to the LLM, set `tools.web.enable` to `false`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "web": {
+      "enable": false
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+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"]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+> [!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" } } }
+> ```
+
+### `tools.web`
+
+| Option | Type | Default | Description |
+|--------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `enable` | boolean | `true` | Enable or disable all built-in web tools (`web_search` + `web_fetch`) |
+| `proxy` | string or null | `null` | Proxy for all web requests, for example `http://127.0.0.1:7890` |
+| `userAgent` | string or null | `null` | User-Agent header for all web requests. If null, a browser one will be used |
+
+### Web Search
+
+nanobot supports multiple web search providers. Configure in `~/.nanobot/config.json` under `tools.web.search`.
+
+By default, web search uses `duckduckgo`, and it works out of the box without an API key.
+
+| Provider | Config fields | Env var fallback | Free |
+|----------|--------------|------------------|------|
+| `brave` | `apiKey` | `BRAVE_API_KEY` | No |
+| `tavily` | `apiKey` | `TAVILY_API_KEY` | No |
+| `jina` | `apiKey` | `JINA_API_KEY` | Free tier (10M tokens) |
+| `kagi` | `apiKey` | `KAGI_API_KEY` | No |
+| `olostep` | `apiKey` | `OLOSTEP_API_KEY` | No |
+| `searxng` | `baseUrl` | `SEARXNG_BASE_URL` | Yes (self-hosted) |
+| `duckduckgo` (default) | — | — | Yes |
+
+**Brave:**
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "web": {
+      "search": {
+        "provider": "brave",
+        "apiKey": "BSA..."
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Tavily:**
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "web": {
+      "search": {
+        "provider": "tavily",
+        "apiKey": "tvly-..."
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Jina** (free tier with 10M tokens):
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "web": {
+      "search": {
+        "provider": "jina",
+        "apiKey": "jina_..."
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Kagi:**
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "web": {
+      "search": {
+        "provider": "kagi",
+        "apiKey": "your-kagi-api-key"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Olostep:**
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "web": {
+      "search": {
+        "provider": "olostep",
+        "apiKey": "YOUR_OLOSTEP_API_KEY"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+You can also set `OLOSTEP_API_KEY` in the environment instead of storing it in config.
+
+**SearXNG** (self-hosted, no API key needed):
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "web": {
+      "search": {
+        "provider": "searxng",
+        "baseUrl": "https://searx.example"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**DuckDuckGo** (zero config):
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "web": {
+      "search": {
+        "provider": "duckduckgo"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### `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) |
+
+### Web Fetch
+
+> [!TIP]
+> If you are having issues with JS proof-of-work or Cloudflare captchas, set a random user agent and disable Jina Reader:
+> ```json
+> { "tools": { "web": { "userAgent": "Not-A-Browser", "fetch": { "useJinaReader": false } } } }
+> ```
+
+nanobot by default uses [Jina Reader](https://jina.ai/reader/), a third-party API, to convert arbitrary pages into Markdown format for easy digestion by the LLM, with a local fallback based on [readability-lxml](https://github.com/buriy/python-readability) if the former fails.
+
+If you want to always use the local conversion, you can force it using:
+
+```json
+{
+  "tools": {
+    "web": {
+      "fetch": {
+        "useJinaReader": false
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### `tools.web.fetch`
+
+| Option | Type | Default | Description |
+|--------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `useJinaReader` | boolean | `true` | If true, Jina Reader will be preferred over the local conversion |
+
+## 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 the non-root user `nanobot` (UID 1000) and reads config from `/home/nanobot/.nanobot`. Always mount your host config directory to `/home/nanobot/.nanobot`, not `/root/.nanobot`.
+> 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.
+>
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Official Docker usage currently means building from this repository with the included `Dockerfile`. Docker Hub images under third-party namespaces are not maintained or verified by HKUDS/nanobot; do not mount API keys or bot tokens into them unless you trust the publisher.
+
+### 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">

+# 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 /v1/models`
+- `POST /v1/chat/completions`

+
+`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
+```
+
+## Full Example
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+import time
+
+from nanobot import Nanobot
+from nanobot.agent import AgentHook, AgentHookContext
+
+
+class TimingHook(AgentHook):
+    def __init__(self) -> None:
+        super().__init__()
+        self._started_at = 0.0
+
+    async def before_iteration(self, context: AgentHookContext) -> None:
+        self._started_at = time.perf_counter()
+
+    async def after_iteration(self, context: AgentHookContext) -> None:
+        elapsed_ms = (time.perf_counter() - self._started_at) * 1000
+        print(f"[timing] iteration {context.iteration} took {elapsed_ms:.1f}ms")
+
+
+async def main() -> None:
+    bot = Nanobot.from_config(workspace="/my/project")
+    result = await bot.run(
+        "Explain the main function",
+        session_key="sdk:demo",
+        hooks=[TimingHook()],
+    )
+    print(result.content)
+
+
+asyncio.run(main())

+# 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.

-- Spawn other subagents
-- Access the main agent's conversation history

+"""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.
