# Deferred Features

Intended features explicitly cut from v1 scope but committed for later. Not backlog noise — these are decided directions parked for sequencing reasons. Keep this list short and real.

| Feature | Cut from | Why deferred | Trigger to revisit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Scrollback on-disk spillover | terminal wrapper v1 | In-memory ring covers the common case; spillover adds a persistence/rotation story | First long-running session that overflows the ring usefully, or any "scroll back further than the buffer" user need |
| Sidecar adapter process (long-running, wire-protocol) | harness contract v1 | Manifest + `spt.exe` subcommand surface covers v1 harnesses; sidecar only earns its keep for streaming / in-memory cross-event state | A harness outgrows manifest+hooks (needs streaming or stateful coordination) |
| Manifest `include` / composition (option C) | manifest v1 | Single flat manifest per harness is enough until a harness wants to override only part of a section | First sub-project that needs to inherit spt-core defaults but override one section |
| Concrete Shell types (GameRobot, in-session-inject) — **OS-notification shell carved out: ships M5** as the dogfood proof (user decision 2026-06-04, M5-PLAN §Scope decisions) | Shell concept v1 | Model is locked; concrete surfaces are large, platform-specific, and not needed for core | First real use case for a driven surface (e.g. the 2D-world experiment) |
| PresenceChannel implementation (broker, dispatch/bind/thread) | endpoint types v1 | Depends on presence gossip + Shells + multi-instance routing; only the seams ship v1. **M5 ships presence *resolution* (gossip + most-recently-active API) — its future substrate; the endpoint stays deferred** (user decision 2026-06-04). <!-- [doc->REQ-PRES-1] --> **M5-D6 seam note:** the substrate now exists — the gossiped datum (`Instance.last_active_ms`, riding the registry's epoch lease + replication) and the one MRA API (`spt-daemon::presence`). A future PresenceChannel's dispatch/bind/thread styles consume exactly this datum plus the broker PresenceLog seam (REQ-EP-4); nothing about the endpoint type needs a new gossip channel. | Once Shells exist and the subnet registry is stable |
| OS-level input-activity presence signal (7a-A) | presence v1 | Per-platform, privacy-loaded; agent-interaction heartbeat covers the v1 goal. **Note:** distinct from the v1 broker *sensing* user input on a PTY it already holds (spt-hosted) — that is in v1 and is NOT OS-wide input monitoring | Opt-in enhancement after agent-interaction presence proves out |
| Instantiate-anywhere + consent gate | Instances V1-mid | Remote launch over network is additive once remote-drive of running instances works. Consent *model* is now designed (CONTEXT §Consent & security gates); **the framework (grant store + escalation + pre-consent flags) ships M5 with this capability id reserved-but-refusing** (user decision 2026-06-04) — the capability lands into it later. Defers with it: the remote-fork arm, cross-node shell spawn, `shell_wake_spawn_anywhere` *behavior* (grant shape ships M5). <!-- [doc->REQ-INST-6] --> **M5-D5b note:** remote `spt suspend/wake <id@node>` shipped (the rest-op wire family, remote-drive trust class) — it *moves existing instances between rest states only*; the remote-**fork** arm (creating an instance on a node that has none) stays here, riding instantiate-anywhere's consent gate. A wake addressed to a node with no local instance refuses with `WAKE_NO_REACHABLE_INSTANCE` naming this deferral. | Revisit-trigger met (remote-drive shipped M4); held back by user decision — capability drops into the M5 consent framework when picked up |
| Remote command execution on another node | off-node reach-back v1 | Highest-risk capability; needs the consent/security gate. Workarounds exist (message a local agent; interact with local agent directly). **M5 ships the framework with this capability id reserved-but-refusing** (user decision 2026-06-04) | Designed alongside instantiate-anywhere's consent gate |
| Shell-binary (and harness-binary) sandboxing | Shell concept v1 | A capability toolset bounds what the *agent* can ask, not what the *binary* can do with its OS perms. Baseline stance: running any adapter/shell binary = a disclosed, accepted trust risk for all spt-core users | If/when untrusted third-party shell/harness binaries become common enough to warrant OS-level sandboxing |
| Concrete Shell adapters (e.g. GameRobot) + the shell binaries themselves | Shell concept v1 | The Shell *model*, manifest schema, perch layout, and `api` surface are now specified; concrete shells are large, platform-specific, and not needed for core | First real driven-surface use case |
| REQ-CONSENT int evidence (interactive escalation E2E) | M5 closeout (D9b rule-5) | The escalation prompt''s end-to-end leg needs a real harness session answering a real consent prompt — loopback-faking it would prove nothing; the grant store + gate + CLI are impl/unit-proven | The downstream rebuilt spt plugin (v1 acceptance) — its first gated spawn IS the int evidence |
| REQ-INSTALL-4 int evidence (`spt adapter add --github` against a real repo) | M5 closeout (D9b rule-5) | Needs a real clone target; impl/unit cover manifest-first validation + registration. The standalone `SaberMage/spt-shell-notify` repo now makes this trivially possible | First milestone that touches adapter lifecycle again — one E2E cloning the notify repo |
| OS-service registration at install (REQ-INSTALL-1's third leg: systemd user service / Windows service or scheduled task for the always-on guarantee) | installer v0.1 (M6-D2, grill decision 3) | Daemon auto-start on any `spt` invocation covers dev-stage use; the minimal non-interactive script stays non-OS-entangled (also serves REQ-INSTALL-2's repackaging stance). Honest gap: a node is unreachable after reboot until something invokes `spt` | First always-on deployment need (headless/server node, or the GUI milestone's background expectations) |
| Tier 2 agent-docs: MCP doc/resource server + `spt <cmd> --help --json` structured-help mode (REQ-DOCS-4 legs) | docs v0.1 (M6-D3/D5, DOCS-STRATEGY §v0.1 grill) | Tier 1 covers the integration surface: the schemars-derived manifest schema + llms.txt/llms-full.txt + the generated CLI reference; `--help --json` is low marginal value over that reference, the MCP server is the standout *later* fit | First integrating dev-agent that outgrows llms.txt + schema (or the `spt-claude-code` work surfacing a concrete MCP-resource need) |
| Subnet attachment verbs: `spt subnet detach <NAME> [--auto]` / `attach <NAME> [--auto]` (daemon keeps running, stops/starts advertising + connecting for that subnet; `--auto` persists the startup default), `spt subnet leave <NAME>` (elevation-gated), maybe `spt subnet disband <NAME>` (elevation + current TOTP) | M7 grill (user spec 2026-06-06; CONTEXT §subnet attachment) | The attached/detached *term* + the all-attached banner ship M7; the per-subnet serve-state machinery (selective advertise/connect, persisted flags) is its own deliverable | M8 CLI nounification, or first multi-subnet user needing selective participation |
| CLI nounification (M8 candidate; ratified shape from the 2026-06-06 grill): `spt endpoint` namespace absorbs fork/suspend/wake/shutdown/rename/stop/digest + `access` (per-endpoint store — NOT subnet-scoped) + `description` (ex-`resources` blurb; bare = show, `set` = author); `spt endpoint list [--local\|--subnet <name>]` = merged listing, default all-subnets grouped by subnet, SELF endpoint pinned distinctly at top (bare `spt endpoint` = this list); agent HOT PATH stays flat (`send`/`ring`/`ready`/`whoami`/`how-to`); `notify` → `spt subnet notify`; `notif` stays top-level (user-recall, cross-subnet); `spt daemon stop\|status` noun (hidden `daemon` → `daemon run`); agent-endpoint `shutdown` keeps its name | M7 grill (2026-06-06) | Second surface-breaking reorg mid-acceptance; adapter window still open immediately after M7 closes | M8 planning — mint REQs first (rule 3) |

+| Linux elevation model (user-ratified direction 2026-06-06): (1) install symlinks the binary into a sudo-reachable path (e.g. `/usr/local/bin`) so `sudo spt` resolves; (2) first `sudo spt` detects elevation and prompts once for the DEFAULT USER ACCOUNT — thereafter any `sudo spt` daemon launch always runs the daemon (and state) under that account, never root (kills the `sudo HOME=$HOME` dance and the root-owned-state hazard) | M7 acceptance run (gravity: `sudo: spt: command not found`, then the HOME-universe split) | Needs installer + first-run-state design; Windows elevation has no equivalent problem (same user profile) | M8, with the installer's next touch |

+| Clock source priority for TOTP/rendezvous: query a well-known world clock (NTP) FIRST, fall back to local time — machines with skewed local clocks currently derive wrong steps/rendezvous tokens silently | M7 acceptance grill (user 2026-06-06) | Needs an NTP client dep + offset caching + offline fallback semantics; ±1 window covers small skew today | First field report of clock-skew join failures, or M8 polish |

for the design followup, i'd prefer if 1. installation symlinks spt binary to sudo home 2. first `sudo spt` detects that it's elevated and prompts user to pick the default user account for execution.…


Edit

| Clock source priority for TOTP/rendezvous:

| Windows firewall registration for the installed binary: a DETACHED daemon never shows the first-bind firewall prompt, so inbound UDP (mDNS + QUIC meet/pairing) is silently dropped — found as the M7 acceptance NO_SEED_HOLDER (dev/test paths had accumulated allow rules; the install path had none). Options: an elevated install leg adds the rule (`New-NetFirewallRule`), and/or the daemon self-detects blocked inbound and renders it as the "no connection" state in `subnet status` + the coming-online banner | M7 acceptance run (2026-06-06) | User-scope installer is deliberately non-OS-entangled (REQ-INSTALL-2); needs the elevated-install / OS-service design anyway | M8, with the OS-service + Linux-elevation install work |

# Deferred Features

Intended features explicitly cut from v1 scope but committed for later. Not backlog noise — these are decided directions parked for sequencing reasons. Keep this list short and real.

| Feature | Cut from | Why deferred | Trigger to revisit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Scrollback on-disk spillover | terminal wrapper v1 | In-memory ring covers the common case; spillover adds a persistence/rotation story | First long-running session that overflows the ring usefully, or any "scroll back further than the buffer" user need |
| Sidecar adapter process (long-running, wire-protocol) | harness contract v1 | Manifest + `spt.exe` subcommand surface covers v1 harnesses; sidecar only earns its keep for streaming / in-memory cross-event state | A harness outgrows manifest+hooks (needs streaming or stateful coordination) |
| Manifest `include` / composition (option C) | manifest v1 | Single flat manifest per harness is enough until a harness wants to override only part of a section | First sub-project that needs to inherit spt-core defaults but override one section |
| Concrete Shell types (GameRobot, in-session-inject) — **OS-notification shell carved out: ships M5** as the dogfood proof (user decision 2026-06-04, M5-PLAN §Scope decisions) | Shell concept v1 | Model is locked; concrete surfaces are large, platform-specific, and not needed for core | First real use case for a driven surface (e.g. the 2D-world experiment) |
| PresenceChannel implementation (broker, dispatch/bind/thread) | endpoint types v1 | Depends on presence gossip + Shells + multi-instance routing; only the seams ship v1. **M5 ships presence *resolution* (gossip + most-recently-active API) — its future substrate; the endpoint stays deferred** (user decision 2026-06-04). <!-- [doc->REQ-PRES-1] --> **M5-D6 seam note:** the substrate now exists — the gossiped datum (`Instance.last_active_ms`, riding the registry's epoch lease + replication) and the one MRA API (`spt-daemon::presence`). A future PresenceChannel's dispatch/bind/thread styles consume exactly this datum plus the broker PresenceLog seam (REQ-EP-4); nothing about the endpoint type needs a new gossip channel. | Once Shells exist and the subnet registry is stable |
| OS-level input-activity presence signal (7a-A) | presence v1 | Per-platform, privacy-loaded; agent-interaction heartbeat covers the v1 goal. **Note:** distinct from the v1 broker *sensing* user input on a PTY it already holds (spt-hosted) — that is in v1 and is NOT OS-wide input monitoring | Opt-in enhancement after agent-interaction presence proves out |
| Instantiate-anywhere + consent gate | Instances V1-mid | Remote launch over network is additive once remote-drive of running instances works. Consent *model* is now designed (CONTEXT §Consent & security gates); **the framework (grant store + escalation + pre-consent flags) ships M5 with this capability id reserved-but-refusing** (user decision 2026-06-04) — the capability lands into it later. Defers with it: the remote-fork arm, cross-node shell spawn, `shell_wake_spawn_anywhere` *behavior* (grant shape ships M5). <!-- [doc->REQ-INST-6] --> **M5-D5b note:** remote `spt suspend/wake <id@node>` shipped (the rest-op wire family, remote-drive trust class) — it *moves existing instances between rest states only*; the remote-**fork** arm (creating an instance on a node that has none) stays here, riding instantiate-anywhere's consent gate. A wake addressed to a node with no local instance refuses with `WAKE_NO_REACHABLE_INSTANCE` naming this deferral. | Revisit-trigger met (remote-drive shipped M4); held back by user decision — capability drops into the M5 consent framework when picked up |
| Remote command execution on another node | off-node reach-back v1 | Highest-risk capability; needs the consent/security gate. Workarounds exist (message a local agent; interact with local agent directly). **M5 ships the framework with this capability id reserved-but-refusing** (user decision 2026-06-04) | Designed alongside instantiate-anywhere's consent gate |
| Shell-binary (and harness-binary) sandboxing | Shell concept v1 | A capability toolset bounds what the *agent* can ask, not what the *binary* can do with its OS perms. Baseline stance: running any adapter/shell binary = a disclosed, accepted trust risk for all spt-core users | If/when untrusted third-party shell/harness binaries become common enough to warrant OS-level sandboxing |
| Concrete Shell adapters (e.g. GameRobot) + the shell binaries themselves | Shell concept v1 | The Shell *model*, manifest schema, perch layout, and `api` surface are now specified; concrete shells are large, platform-specific, and not needed for core | First real driven-surface use case |
| REQ-CONSENT int evidence (interactive escalation E2E) | M5 closeout (D9b rule-5) | The escalation prompt''s end-to-end leg needs a real harness session answering a real consent prompt — loopback-faking it would prove nothing; the grant store + gate + CLI are impl/unit-proven | The downstream rebuilt spt plugin (v1 acceptance) — its first gated spawn IS the int evidence |
| REQ-INSTALL-4 int evidence (`spt adapter add --github` against a real repo) | M5 closeout (D9b rule-5) | Needs a real clone target; impl/unit cover manifest-first validation + registration. The standalone `SaberMage/spt-shell-notify` repo now makes this trivially possible | First milestone that touches adapter lifecycle again — one E2E cloning the notify repo |
| OS-service registration at install (REQ-INSTALL-1's third leg: systemd user service / Windows service or scheduled task for the always-on guarantee) | installer v0.1 (M6-D2, grill decision 3) | Daemon auto-start on any `spt` invocation covers dev-stage use; the minimal non-interactive script stays non-OS-entangled (also serves REQ-INSTALL-2's repackaging stance). Honest gap: a node is unreachable after reboot until something invokes `spt` | First always-on deployment need (headless/server node, or the GUI milestone's background expectations) |
| Tier 2 agent-docs: MCP doc/resource server + `spt <cmd> --help --json` structured-help mode (REQ-DOCS-4 legs) | docs v0.1 (M6-D3/D5, DOCS-STRATEGY §v0.1 grill) | Tier 1 covers the integration surface: the schemars-derived manifest schema + llms.txt/llms-full.txt + the generated CLI reference; `--help --json` is low marginal value over that reference, the MCP server is the standout *later* fit | First integrating dev-agent that outgrows llms.txt + schema (or the `spt-claude-code` work surfacing a concrete MCP-resource need) |
| Subnet attachment verbs: `spt subnet detach <NAME> [--auto]` / `attach <NAME> [--auto]` (daemon keeps running, stops/starts advertising + connecting for that subnet; `--auto` persists the startup default), `spt subnet leave <NAME>` (elevation-gated), maybe `spt subnet disband <NAME>` (elevation + current TOTP) | M7 grill (user spec 2026-06-06; CONTEXT §subnet attachment) | The attached/detached *term* + the all-attached banner ship M7; the per-subnet serve-state machinery (selective advertise/connect, persisted flags) is its own deliverable | M8 CLI nounification, or first multi-subnet user needing selective participation |
| Linux elevation model (user-ratified direction 2026-06-06): (1) install symlinks the binary into a sudo-reachable path (e.g. `/usr/local/bin`) so `sudo spt` resolves; (2) first `sudo spt` detects elevation and prompts once for the DEFAULT USER ACCOUNT — thereafter any `sudo spt` daemon launch always runs the daemon (and state) under that account, never root (kills the `sudo HOME=$HOME` dance and the root-owned-state hazard) | M7 acceptance run (gravity: `sudo: spt: command not found`, then the HOME-universe split) | Needs installer + first-run-state design; Windows elevation has no equivalent problem (same user profile) | M8, with the installer's next touch |
| Clock source priority for TOTP/rendezvous: query a well-known world clock (NTP) FIRST, fall back to local time — machines with skewed local clocks currently derive wrong steps/rendezvous tokens silently | M7 acceptance grill (user 2026-06-06) | Needs an NTP client dep + offset caching + offline fallback semantics; ±1 window covers small skew today | First field report of clock-skew join failures, or M8 polish |

wouldn't 2-machine CI have failed if it was a firewall issue?


Add the rule in your admin terminal, then re-run the join on gravity. I'm standing by with the deferred-entry commit once we see the join land.

1. **Firewall rules are per-executable-path.** CI runs from `C:\actions-runner\_work\...\target\debug\` — and exactly those paths have accumulated Inbound-Allow rules (look at the dump: `spt | Inbound | Allow | C:\actions-runner\_work\spt-core\spt-core\target\debug\spt.exe`, plus the `spt_daemon-*`/`netbroker-*` test bins). Your installed `%LOCALAPPDATA%\spt-core\bin\spt.exe` is a *different program identity* with **zero** rules. CI was grandfathered; the install path never was.

2. **Traffic direction differs.** In the rig, the Windows side mostly *initiates* (dials gravity's fixed port); Windows statefully allows return traffic on outbound-initiated UDP flows, and gravity-Linux (which accepts the unsolicited inbound in the ladder) has no host firewall in play. Your real join inverts it: gravity dials **into** Windows — unsolicited inbound at the meet listener, the one case that needs an explicit allow rule.

So CI green and product-join dead are fully consistent — and that's itself the lesson now logged in DEFERRED: the rig never exercised *the installed binary's* network identity. (Worth an M8 acceptance idea: a rung that runs the join against the **installed** path, not the build tree.)

Rule added yet? Retry from gravity when so.


ok, you never surfaced the rule for me to apply.


Here — run in an **admin** PowerShell:

```powershell
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "spt-core daemon" -Direction Inbound -Action Allow -Program "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\spt-core\bin\spt.exe" -Profile Private
```

Applies live (no daemon restart). Then on gravity:

```sh
sudo HOME=$HOME ~/.local/bin/spt subnet join BIGNET
```

If it fails again, the new binary prints the underlying error under `detail:` — paste it.


rule added. stil failed. it wasn't the new binary, no issue print. was it copied to the right dir after building?

List daemon-owned UDP endpoints


total: 0


**Smoking gun: the daemon owns ZERO UDP sockets.** It's running net-less (or wedged at net bind) — no endpoint, no meet listener, nothing for gravity to find. Firewall was real but secondary; this daemon never bound a network at all. `NET_BIND_FAIL` degrades to a net-less broker by design — and detached, the reason went nowhere.

Need its logs. One admin command:

```powershell
taskkill /PID 54424 /F
```

Then I immediately restart the daemon from my session **with stderr captured** and we read the bind failure directly. Go.


that's the wrong process. current daemon is 43524

Diagnostic join queued (blpk8wr28) — waits out the build, then runs the real ceremony with the detail-surfacing binary. Output lands here when done.

Board meanwhile:

| Layer | State |
|---|---|
| Seed-holder daemon (43524) | ✅ healthy — endpoint + meet listener bound |
| Windows firewall | ✅ rule added (Private, both profiles Private) |
| Joiner binary w/ diagnostics | ⏳ building on gravity |
| Root cause candidates left | mDNS wifi↔ethernet filtering · n0-DNS publish latency vs 30s window rotation |

If `detail:` shows all three window tokens failing on *resolve* (not connect), the rendezvous-discovery design needs the M8 hardening (pre-publish next window / longer meet identity life). If it *connects* and then fails, different story.

That was the superseded build task — and its death matters: it wasn't `nohup`'d, so if the ssh session died, cargo died mid-compile and the current diagnostic task polls a frozen log. Checking:

`failed to fill whole buffer` = my daemon-kill severing that join's IPC mid-flight — self-inflicted, disregard. Real verdict comes from b8lmdxri7 (fresh daemon, instrumented binary). Waiting.

debug(daemon): meet-rotation window diagnostics + DEFERRED entries from the acceptance run

PAIR_MEET_UP per window (derived id + the addrs the listener actually
advertises — an undiscoverable meet listener is indistinguishable from a
dead one without it), PAIR_MEET_ANSWERED / PAIR_MEET_SERVE_ERR per
exchange. Chasing the live two-machine join's "rendezvous meet: connect
failed: timed out" (wire is CI-proven; discovery of the 30s-lived derived
identity is the suspect: mDNS wifi<->ethernet filtering vs n0-DNS publish
latency).

DEFERRED.md gains the acceptance run's harvest: Linux elevation model
(sudo-reachable symlink + first-sudo default-account election), NTP-first
clock sourcing, Windows firewall registration for the installed binary
(a detached daemon never sees the first-bind prompt — silent inbound
drop), plus an M8 acceptance idea: a rung driving the INSTALLED binary's
network identity, not the build tree's.

Same `detail:` from your manual run — consistent with mine; steady-state meet-connect timeout confirmed. Instrumented daemon is built; swap blocked by the running daemon (it executes from the install dir).

One admin command, then I take it end to end:

```powershell
taskkill /PID 43524 /F
```

The moment it's dead I: install the instrumented binary → run the daemon from my session **with captured logs** → fire the join from gravity → read both sides (`PAIR_MEET_UP` window lines + advertised addrs here vs the joiner's timeout there). That pins mDNS-vs-relay-publish in one shot.

fix(net,daemon): rendezvous race — bounded parallel meet probes + window overlap + sweep retry

The first real two-machine join failed every attempt with "rendezvous
meet: connect failed: timed out" while the responder's meet rotation was
provably healthy (live-debug: PAIR_MEET_UP each window, correct addrs,
id published and resolvable from the joiner — but zero probes ever
arrived). Root cause: dial_via_rendezvous walked the ±1 window tokens
SEQUENTIALLY with NO per-dial bound, and a stale token's published
record outlives its listener (DNS TTL) — so the first dial hung on a
ghost id for iroh's default connect timeout while the live window
rotated away underneath. Systematic on real networks; never seen in CI
because every harnessed path dials an explicit address — this was the
one leg the ladder never exercised.

Three-part fix [impl->REQ-SUBNET-2]:
- dial_via_rendezvous now RACES all three window tokens concurrently,
  each probe bounded by MEET_PROBE_TIMEOUT (7s — a quarter window);
  first answering listener wins, losers aborted. NetEndpoint grows
  clone_handle() (iroh endpoints are refcounted) for the probe tasks.
- The responder keeps the PREVIOUS window's meet listeners serving one
  extra period (prev_tasks overlap): every published id is dialable for
  its full discoverable life — step-1 resolutions land instead of
  ghosting.
- join_ceremony sweeps the rendezvous until a 75s search deadline
  (~2.5 windows) before returning NoSeedHolder — a sweep straddling a
  rotation just misses and the next derives fresh tokens.

spt-net 99 + pairjoin green.

- HFENDULEAM: fixed daemon up, logged (b4hr1hi7e) — overlapping meet windows now
- gravity (btphaxb8p): builds 4b2b083 (~12 min) → cycles daemon → joins with raced bounded probes + 75s sweep → prints `status --nodes`

If the theory's right, this one lands `JOINED SUBNET: BIGNET`. Report comes with the task.
