Resolve who is calling an MCP tool from the connection, not a spoofable argument (per docs/MCP-Contract.md). ConnectionIdentity ties the loopback peer PID (LsofPeerPidLookup) to a herdr pane (PaneLocator via pane.list/pane.process_info) → the caller's terminal_id; a caller owning no pane is the primary. bridge_reply now takes only content and resolves the worker from the connection (no sessionId). Live-verified: real PID→pane (contract test), and a non-pane MCP caller correctly gets a workers-only error. Single-host; the token path stays the split-host fallback. 58 tests green, IDE-clean.
Streamable-HTTP MCP server (io.modelcontextprotocol.sdk:mcp 2.0.0) mounted on the daemon's Jetty at /mcp, exposing three tools as thin adapters over MessageService/Rendezvous — the primary calls bridge_send/bridge_status, the worker calls bridge_reply. Tool logic in unit-testable static methods (parity tests); SDK owns the wire protocol. Resolves the Jackson 2/3 split by pinning jackson-annotations 3.0-rc5 (works for both our Jackson 2.19 and the SDK's Jackson 3). Live-verified: initialize handshake + tools/list return all three tools. Documents the residual Jackson-3 CVE (loopback, trusted clients). 52 tests green, IDE-clean.
Per-session-serialized blocking send that enqueues via the CB-103 injector (poller delivers) and blocks on a rendezvous resolved by the worker's structured bridge_reply, or a typed 200/202 outcome. No status-polling completion, no terminal scrape. GET /sessions/{id}/status. Reworked from an initial poll+scrape draft after a high-effort review found the polling completion unreliable; all findings fixed.
Workers now land in their own herdr tab inside a dedicated, shared "worker
space" (workspace.create → tab.create → agent.start{tab_id} → close seed shell
→ rename), instead of splitting the user's currently-focused tab. Placement is
configurable (worker.placement tab|pane, worker.workspace, worker.tabLabel);
a future per-session space is just a distinct label.
New: Workspace/Tab records, WorkspaceControl over workspace.*/tab.*,
AgentControl.start tab_id overload, Agent.tabId.
Lifecycle carefulness:
- ensureWorkspace is a synchronized find-or-create (never double-creates)
- teardown closes the tab ONLY when the worker is its sole pane (never a
shared user tab), resolving the tab via pane.get before closing
- tolerance is precise: only *_not_found is swallowed; real failures surface
- spawn failure closes the orphan tab; post-start cosmetic steps can't orphan
a live worker or fail the spawn
- unique per-worker names (claude-<profile>-<nonce>-<seq>) with retry: herdr
rejects duplicate agent names, and the per-process nonce survives a restart
with lingering workers
herdr facts pinned: agent.start honors tab_id; agent name must be unique;
kind/status are detected from terminal output, not the name.
Reviewed at high effort (multi-agent); all findings addressed. 34 tests green
(29 unit/acceptance + 5 contract vs live herdr 0.7.0). Also bumps wiki.
Spike decided the worker south side in favour of herdr's native agent.*
namespace over pane+send_text. Proven against live herdr 0.7.0:
agent.start takes a first-class env map that reaches the process
environment (ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL confirmed via agent.read), and herdr
tracks each worker's Claude session UUID itself.
- AgentControl: start/send/read/get/status/list + pane.close over agent.*.
- Agent/AgentStatus: projection of herdr agent records (session UUID,
injectable status gate).
- WorkerService: build worker env (base_url/token/model/config dir),
assertWorker BEFORE any herdr call, then agent.start.
- REST: GET /agents (discovery by session UUID), POST /workers (201, or
403 subscription_boundary), DELETE /workers/{paneId}.
- Full stack smoke-tested live: POST->guard->agent.start->new pane,
GET /agents lists it, DELETE closes it.
- Tests: 21 unit/acceptance + 4 contract (incl. a live end-to-end probe
spawn that proves env injection and cleans up its pane).
No agent.stop in herdr (use pane.close); herdr id must be a string;
one request per connection — all pinned by contract tests.
Maven/Java 25 module under bridged/. End-to-end verified against live
herdr 0.7.0 (protocol 14): GET /healthz and GET /sessions serve real
workspace data through the socket client.
- herdr client (CB-101): Unix-socket JSON-RPC via UnixDomainSocketAddress.
Two contract facts pinned by tests against the real daemon:
ids MUST be strings, and herdr is one-shot per connection
(connection-per-call, which also makes the client lock-free).
- subscription guard: worker base_url must be on the off-subscription
allowlist (gx00.gw, ollama.ltms.dev); primary env must carry no base_url.
- config (CB-106): Jackson YAML + Logback; example grounded in ltms-local.
- REST app (CB-104 start): injectable HerdrClient so acceptance tests run
on an ephemeral port with a fake herdr, no daemon/Claude in the loop.
- tests: 17 unit/acceptance (mvn test) + 3 contract (mvn test -Pcontract).
