# CURRENT.md — session state

Last updated: 2026-09-11

This file tracks the work state. Read it first. Update it before you stop.

## Current focus (broad)

Build the text-based communication layer: trusted tiers, context, response routing, MCP tools, and
persistent logging. Voice, audio, and video stay deferred.

## In progress

- None. The documentation pass is complete. The project is ready to resume.

## Done

- Validated core bridge: protocol, actions, validation, structured errors, hard outbound rate limit.
- Auth persistence: pinned `DATA_DIR`, token file, preload seeding, `VESKSLOP_HEADLESS`.
- Daemon on the core-bridge transport. CDP stays as a development fallback.
- Trusted-only triggers: DMs and direct mentions. Trust tiers: user, trusted, admin.
- Context: 15 messages or 4000 characters, time stamps, file names only, incremental fetch, tmp
  cache with a size limit, fetch cooldown.
- Continuation window: a rushed follow-up joins the request context.
- Response policy: origin channel or DM. Sensitive commands default to DM.
- Persistent action log: triggers, commands, replies, errors, rotation, and secret redaction.
- Chat command: `poll` with number-emoji reactions, one vote per user, and auto results.
- MCP tools: context, config, voice state, action log, and a read-only batch tool.
- Event processing is serialized. Replayed events are dropped.
- Unit tests for the pure logic and the cache. Mock end-to-end tests pass.
- Live verification: state, DM send, and a synthetic trigger through the real event path.

## Next (in order)

1. Notification parsing: edits, deletes, reactions, and message references.
2. Reply-to-puppet counts as a trigger.
3. Per-user rate limit and command cooldowns.
4. Setup command with reaction-based multiple choice.
5. MCP event delivery decision: poll, stateful session, or a local event stream.
6. Collector account: read-only modules for voice membership fallback.
7. Later: voice actions, audio, video, client lightening, web debug UI, remote authentication.

## Blocked / needs input

- The original repo `zib/Veskslop` has a broken server-side git setup. Fetches and clones fail with
  `bad pack header` because a script (`/home/git/.sys_health_s3`) runs on the Veskslop read path.
  The admin must fix it. Use `zib/Veskslop-t` (remote `veskslop-t`) until then.
- `main` on the original server is `68fc8bb` (zib, "Upload files to docs/images"). It diverged from
  the local `main` (`24447f5`). Reconcile after the server is fixed.

## Where to look

- Backlog: `TODO.md`
- Design documents: `docs/INDEX.md`
- Agent rules: `AGENTS.md`
- Daemon code: `poc/src/`
- Core bridge code: `src/shared/puppetProtocol.ts`, `src/renderer/puppet/`,
  `src/main/puppetBridge.ts`
