+
+# Fix GitHub Issue
+
+## Step 1: Resolve the issue
+
+Parse `$ARGUMENTS` to extract the issue number:
+- If it's a URL like `https://github.com/owner/repo/issues/42`, extract `42`.
+- If it's a bare number, use it directly.
+- If empty, stop and ask the user for an issue number.
+
+Fetch the issue:
+
+```
+gh issue view {number} --json title,body,labels,assignees,comments,state
+```
+
+If the issue is closed, warn the user and ask if they still want to proceed.
+
+## Step 2: Create a branch
+
+Create a fresh branch off the latest main:
+
+1. Fetch latest: `git fetch origin`
+2. Detect default branch: `gh repo view --json defaultBranchRef --jq .defaultBranchRef.name`
+3. Create and switch to a new branch: `git checkout -b fix/{number}-{short-slug} origin/{default-branch}`
+   - `{short-slug}` is 3-5 words from the issue title, lowercase, hyphenated (e.g. `fix/42-idor-workspace-check`)
+
+If the working tree has uncommitted changes, warn the user and stop. Do not stash or discard their work.
+
+## Step 3: Understand the issue
+
+Summarize the issue in 2-3 sentences. Identify:
+- **What's broken or missing** (the symptom or feature request)
+- **Acceptance criteria** (what "done" looks like, from the issue body or comments)
+- **Constraints** (mentioned technologies, backward compatibility, performance requirements)
+
+If the issue is unclear or ambiguous, list the open questions. These will be addressed during planning.
+
+## Step 4: Research the codebase
+
+Before planning, gather context:
+
+1. **Find relevant code** - Search for files, functions, types, and patterns mentioned in the issue. Read them in full.
+2. **Trace the flow** - If the issue is about a specific behavior, trace the code path from the entry point (route handler, CLI command, etc.) through to the relevant logic.
+3. **Check existing tests** - Find tests related to the affected code. Understand what's already covered.
+4. **Check for prior art** - Look for similar patterns in the codebase that solve analogous problems. Prefer consistency with existing patterns.
+
+## Step 5: Enter planning mode
+
+Enter planning mode to design the implementation. The plan MUST cover:
+
+1. **Root cause** (for bugs) or **design approach** (for features)
+2. **Files to modify** with specific descriptions of what changes in each
+3. **New files** (if any) with justification for why they're needed
+4. **Tests to add** - every code path introduced or changed needs a test:
+   - Happy path (expected input produces expected output)
+   - Error paths (invalid input, missing data, permission denied)
+   - Edge cases (empty collections, boundary values, concurrent access)
+5. **IronClaw-specific concerns**:
+   - If the change touches persistence, both database backends must be updated (`postgres.rs` and `libsql_backend.rs`)
+   - New `Database` trait methods need implementations in both backends
+   - No `.unwrap()` or `.expect()` in production code
+   - Use `crate::` imports, not `super::`
+   - Error types via `thiserror` in `error.rs`
+6. **Migration or compatibility concerns** (if any)
+
+Follow the project's CLAUDE.md guidance for architecture decisions.
+
+Wait for user approval before implementing.
+
+## Step 6: Implement
+
+After the plan is approved:
+
+1. Implement each change from the plan.
+2. Write all planned tests.
+3. Run IronClaw's full quality gate:
+   - `cargo fmt`
+   - `cargo clippy --all --benches --tests --examples --all-features` (zero warnings)
+   - `cargo test --lib` (all tests pass)
+4. If any check fails, fix it before proceeding.
+
+Note: Integration tests (`--test workspace_integration`) require PostgreSQL and are expected to fail locally. Only `--lib` test failures are blocking.
+
+## Step 7: Commit and summarize
+
+1. Commit with a descriptive message referencing the issue (e.g. `fix: prevent IDOR in function call outputs (#42)`).
+2. Summarize what was done:
+   - Files changed with line references
+   - Tests added and what they cover
+   - Any follow-up work or open questions

+# Review and Address PR Comments
+
+## Step 1: Find the PR
+
+If `$ARGUMENTS` is provided, use that as the PR number. Otherwise, detect the PR for the current branch:
+
+```
+gh pr list --head $(git branch --show-current) --json number,title,url --jq '.[0]'
+```
+
+If no PR is found, tell the user and stop.
+
+## Step 2: Fetch all review comments
+
+Resolve the repo owner and name:
+
+```
+gh repo view --json owner,name --jq '"\(.owner.login)/\(.name)"'
+```
+
+Fetch the full set of review comments (not issue-level comments):
+
+```
+gh api --paginate repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/{number}/comments
+```
+
+Also fetch the review summaries:
+
+```
+gh api --paginate repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/{number}/reviews
+```
+
+Deduplicate comments that appear multiple times (bots sometimes post the same finding under different IDs). Group by the actual issue being raised, not by comment ID.
+
+## Step 3: Triage and plan
+
+For each unique issue raised in the comments:
+
+1. **Check if already addressed** - Read the current code at the referenced location. If a prior commit already fixed it, note it as "already resolved".
+2. **Assess validity** - Determine if the comment identifies a real problem or is a false positive. Be honest about false positives but explain why.
+3. **Classify severity** - Critical (security/data loss), High (bugs/broken behavior), Medium (correctness/robustness), Low (style/naming/nits).
+4. **Plan the fix** - For each valid unresolved issue, describe the specific code change needed.
+
+Present the plan as a table to the user:
+
+| # | Issue | File:Line | Severity | Status | Planned Fix |
+|---|-------|-----------|----------|--------|-------------|
+
+Wait for user confirmation before proceeding to implementation.
+
+## Step 4: Implement fixes
+
+After user confirms:
+
+1. Implement each fix in the plan.
+2. Run IronClaw's quality gate to verify nothing breaks:
+   - `cargo fmt`
+   - `cargo clippy --all --benches --tests --examples --all-features`
+   - `cargo test --lib`
+3. Commit with a descriptive message referencing the PR review.
+4. Push to the branch.
+
+## Step 5: Reply to comments
+
+For each comment addressed, reply on the PR with a short message stating what was fixed and the commit SHA. For false positives or already-resolved items, reply explaining why no change was needed.
+
+## Rules
+
+- Never guess at code you haven't read. Always read the referenced file and line before assessing a comment.
+- Group duplicate comments (same issue reported by multiple bots) and reply to all of them.
+- Do not make changes beyond what the review comments ask for. Stay focused.
+- If a comment suggests a change you disagree with, present your reasoning to the user during the planning phase rather than silently ignoring it.
+- Follow IronClaw conventions: no `.unwrap()` in production code, use `crate::` imports, `thiserror` errors.
+- If changes touch persistence, verify both database backends are updated.

+description: Deep audit of the IronClaw crate for vulnerabilities, bugs, unfinished work, inconsistencies, and oversights
+disable-model-invocation: true
+allowed-tools: Bash(cargo fmt:*), Bash(cargo clippy:*), Bash(cargo test:*), Bash(cargo audit:*), Bash(git diff:*), Bash(git log:*), Bash(git show:*), Bash(wc:*), Read, Grep, Glob, Task
+argument-hint: "[path/to/crate]"

+
+# Rust Crate Audit
+
+You are performing a thorough audit of a Rust crate. Your goal is to find every vulnerability, bug, unfinished piece of work, inconsistency, and oversight before it ships. Leave no stone unturned.
+
+## Step 1: Locate the crate
+
+Parse `$ARGUMENTS`:
+- If a path is provided, use it as the crate root.
+- If empty, use the current working directory.
+
+Verify it's a valid Rust crate by checking for `Cargo.toml`. If not found, stop and ask the user.
+
+## Step 2: Understand the crate
+
+Read `Cargo.toml` to understand:
+- Crate name, version, edition
+- Dependencies (look for outdated, unmaintained, or suspicious crates)
+- Feature flags and their implications
+- Build scripts (`build.rs`) if any
+
+Read `CLAUDE.md`, `README.md`, or top-level documentation if present to understand intent and architecture.
+
+Read `src/lib.rs` or `src/main.rs` to get the module tree. Then read each module's `mod.rs` or top-level file to build a mental map of the crate's structure before diving into details.
+Read all Rust files (`src/*.rs`) to make sure everything is in context when you are reasoning.
+
+## Step 3: Run the compiler's checks
+
+Run these commands and capture output. Do NOT fix anything, just collect findings:
+
+```
+cargo fmt --check 2>&1
+```
+
+```
+cargo clippy --all --benches --tests --examples --all-features -- -W clippy::all -W clippy::pedantic -W clippy::nursery 2>&1
+```
+
+```
+cargo test --lib 2>&1
+```
+
+If any of these fail, record the failures as findings. If `cargo test` has ignored tests, note which ones and why.
+
+Note: Integration tests (`--test workspace_integration`) require a PostgreSQL database and are expected to fail locally. Only report `--lib` test failures as blocking.
+
+## Step 4: Scan for unfinished work
+
+Search the entire `src/` tree for:
+
+```
+todo!
+unimplemented!
+fixme
+FIXME
+TODO
+HACK
+XXX
+SAFETY:
+stub
+placeholder
+temporary
+```
+
+For each match:
+- Is it in production code or test code?
+- Is it a genuine incomplete feature or a deliberate placeholder?
+- Is there a tracking issue referenced?
+- Could this panic at runtime?
+
+Any `todo!()` or `unimplemented!()` in non-test code is **High severity** (runtime panic).
+
+## Step 5: Audit for vulnerabilities and unsafe code
+
+### 5a. Unsafe code
+
+Search for all `unsafe` blocks. For each one:
+- Is the safety invariant documented with a `// SAFETY:` comment?
+- Is the invariant actually upheld by the surrounding code?
+- Could the unsafe block be replaced with a safe alternative?
+- Are there any pointer dereferences, transmutes, or FFI calls?
+
+### 5b. Unwrap and panic paths
+
+Search for `.unwrap()`, `.expect(`, `panic!`, `unreachable!` in non-test code. For each:
+- Can this actually panic in production?
+- Is there a code path that reaches this with None/Err?
+- Should it be replaced with proper error handling (`?`, `.ok()`, `.unwrap_or_default()`)?
+
+IronClaw convention: `.unwrap()` and `.expect()` are banned in production code. Any occurrence outside `#[cfg(test)]` blocks is a **High severity** finding.
+
+### 5c. SQL and injection vectors
+
+Search for string formatting used in SQL queries, shell commands, or HTML:
+- `format!` used near `.execute(`, `.query(`, `Command::new(`
+- String interpolation in query construction vs parameterized queries
+- User input flowing into file paths (`Path::new`, `std::fs::`)
+
+IronClaw has two database backends (PostgreSQL and libSQL). Check both for injection vectors.
+
+### 5d. Cryptographic issues
+
+If the crate uses crypto:
+- Are comparisons constant-time? (look for `==` on secrets/hashes vs `subtle::ConstantTimeEq`)
+- Is randomness from `OsRng` / `thread_rng` and not a fixed seed?
+- Are keys/secrets zeroized after use? (`secrecy`, `zeroize` crates)
+- Are deprecated algorithms used? (MD5, SHA1 for security, RC4, DES)
+
+### 5e. Resource exhaustion
+
+- Are there unbounded allocations? (`Vec` growing from user input without limits)
+- Are there unbounded loops? (retry loops without max attempts)
+- Are file reads bounded? (`std::fs::read_to_string` on user-provided paths)
+- Are timeouts set on all network operations?
+- Are there connection/resource leaks? (opened but never closed, missing `Drop`)
+
+### 5f. Error handling
+
+- Are errors swallowed silently? (`let _ = ...`, `.ok()` discarding errors that matter)
+- Do error types carry enough context to debug in production?
+- Are there error type mismatches? (returning generic `anyhow::Error` where a typed error would prevent confusion)
+- Is `thiserror` used consistently for error types (IronClaw convention)?
+
+## Step 6: Check for inconsistencies
+
+### 6a. Naming conventions
+
+- Are types, functions, modules named consistently? (e.g., mixing `get_` and `fetch_`, `create_` and `new_`)
+- Do similar operations follow the same patterns?
+
+### 6b. Duplicate or near-duplicate code
+
+Look for:
+- Functions that do nearly the same thing with minor variations (candidates for generics or shared helpers)
+- Repeated error mapping patterns that should be extracted
+- Copy-pasted SQL queries or string templates with slight differences
+- Identical struct definitions or conversion logic in different modules
+
+### 6c. API consistency
+
+- Do similar functions take arguments in the same order?
+- Are return types consistent? (e.g., some functions return `Option<T>`, similar ones return `Result<T, E>`)
+- Are visibility modifiers consistent? (`pub` where it should be `pub(crate)`, or vice versa)
+
+### 6d. Dead code and unused items
+
+- Are there functions, structs, or modules that nothing references?
+- Are there `#[allow(dead_code)]` annotations that should be investigated?
+- Are there feature-gated items where the feature is never enabled?
+
+### 6e. Import style
+
+IronClaw convention: use `crate::` imports, not `super::`. Flag any `super::` imports in non-test code.
+
+## Step 7: Inspect for change oversights
+
+### 7a. Partial refactors
+
+- Are there old patterns coexisting with new patterns?
+- Are there renamed types/functions where some call sites still use the old name via a compatibility alias?
+- Are there comments referencing behavior that no longer exists?
+
+### 7b. Trait implementation gaps
+
+- If a trait is defined, do all intended types implement it?
+- Are there `impl` blocks that look incomplete?
+- Are `Default` implementations sensible?
+
+IronClaw key traits: `Database` (~60 methods), `Channel`, `Tool`, `LlmProvider`, `SuccessEvaluator`, `EmbeddingProvider`. If any new methods were added to `Database`, verify both `postgres.rs` and `libsql_backend.rs` implement them.
+
+### 7c. Test coverage gaps
+
+- Are there public functions without any test?
+- Are there error paths without tests?
+- Are there recently-changed functions where the tests still assert old behavior?
+
+### 7d. Documentation drift
+
+- Do doc comments match actual function behavior?
+- Are examples in doc comments still valid and compilable?
+
+## Step 8: Dependency audit
+
+Review `Cargo.toml` and `Cargo.lock`:
+- Are there duplicate versions of the same crate in the lock file? (potential version conflicts)
+- Are there dependencies with known security advisories? Run `cargo audit` to check (install with `cargo install cargo-audit` if not present).
+- Are there heavy dependencies used for trivial functionality?
+- Are dependency features minimal?
+
+## Step 9: Present findings
+
+Compile all findings into a structured report. Group by severity, then by category.
+
+### Format
+
+For each finding:
+
+```
+### [Severity] Category: One-line summary
+
+**Location:** `file_path:line_number`
+**Category:** Vulnerability | Bug | Unfinished | Inconsistency | Duplicate | Oversight | Style
+
+**Description:**
+Detailed explanation of the issue, why it matters, and how it could manifest.
+
+**Suggested fix:**
+Concrete suggestion with code if applicable.
+```
+
+### Severity levels
+
+- **Critical**: Security vulnerability, data loss, or crash in production
+- **High**: Bug that causes incorrect behavior, `todo!()`/`unimplemented!()` in prod code, or missing validation on trust boundaries
+- **Medium**: Inconsistency, duplicate code, incomplete error handling, missing tests for important paths
+- **Low**: Naming inconsistency, unnecessary complexity, documentation drift, minor dead code
+- **Nit**: Style preference, optional improvement
+
+### Summary table
+
+End with a summary table:
+
+| # | Severity | Category | File:Line | Finding |
+|---|----------|----------|-----------|---------|
+
+And a final tally: X Critical, Y High, Z Medium, W Low, V Nit.
+
+## Rules
+
+- Read every file before reporting on it. Never guess about code you haven't seen.
+- Be specific. "This might have issues" is worthless. "Line 42 calls `.unwrap()` on a `Result` that returns `Err` when the DB connection is dropped" is useful.
+- Distinguish certainty levels: "this IS a bug" vs "this COULD be a bug if X".
+- Don't invent problems to look thorough. If the code is solid, say so.
+- Focus on substance over style. Don't flag formatting unless it causes real confusion.
+- Respect existing project conventions (check CLAUDE.md). Don't flag patterns the project explicitly endorses.
+- When in doubt about severity, round up.
+- For large crates (>50 files), prioritize: core logic > public API > internal utilities > tests > examples.
+- Use the Task tool to parallelize file reading across modules when the crate is large.
+- Do NOT fix anything. This is a read-only audit. Report findings for the user to action.

+description: Paranoid architect review of a PR — fetches diff, reads changed files, deep review across 6 lenses, posts findings as GitHub comments
+disable-model-invocation: true

+
+# Paranoid Architect Code Review
+
+You are reviewing this PR as a paranoid architect. Your job is to find every bug, vulnerability, race condition, edge case, and undocumented assumption before it ships. Assume adversarial users, concurrent access, and Murphy's law.
+
+## Step 1: Resolve the PR
+
+Parse `$ARGUMENTS` to extract the PR number:
+- If it's a URL like `https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/123`, extract `123`.
+- If it's a bare number, use it directly.
+- If empty, stop and ask the user for a PR number.
+
+Fetch PR metadata (including head commit SHA for posting line comments later):
+
+```
+gh pr view {number} --json title,body,baseRefName,headRefName,headRefOid,files,additions,deletions
+```
+
+Save the `headRefOid` value, you'll need it as `commit_id` in Step 6.
+
+## Step 2: Load the full diff
+
+```
+gh pr diff {number}
+```
+
+Also get the list of changed files:
+
+```
+gh pr diff {number} --name-only
+```
+
+## Step 3: Read every changed file in full
+
+For each changed file, read the ENTIRE current file (not just the diff hunks). You need surrounding context to catch:
+- Callers of modified functions that now behave differently
+- Trait/interface contracts that the change may violate
+- Invariants established elsewhere that the diff breaks
+
+If the PR touches more than 20 files, still read all of them, but process in this priority order: service logic > routes/handlers > models/types > tests > docs. Batch reads in groups of ~20 if needed.
+
+## Step 4: Deep review
+
+Go through the changes with each of these lenses. For every finding, note the file, line range, severity, and a concrete description.
+
+### IronClaw-specific checks
+
+In addition to the general lenses below, check IronClaw conventions (see CLAUDE.md):
+- No `.unwrap()` or `.expect()` in production code (tests are fine)
+- Use `crate::` imports, not `super::`
+- Error types use `thiserror` in `error.rs`
+- If the change touches persistence, verify both database backends are updated (PostgreSQL in `postgres.rs` AND libSQL in `libsql_backend.rs`)
+- New tools must implement the `Tool` trait correctly and be registered in `registry.rs`
+- External tool output must pass through the safety layer
+
+### 4a. Correctness and bugs
+
+- Off-by-one errors, wrong comparison operators, inverted conditions
+- Unreachable code, dead branches, impossible match arms
+- Type confusion (mixing up IDs, using wrong enum variant)
+- Incorrect error propagation (swallowed errors, wrong error type/status code)
+- Broken invariants (e.g. uniqueness assumptions violated, ordering assumptions wrong)
+- Concurrency issues (TOCTOU, missing locks, race conditions between check and use)
+
+### 4b. Edge cases and failure handling
+
+- What happens with empty input, None/null, zero-length collections?
+- What happens when external services fail (DB down, HTTP timeout, malformed response)?
+- What happens at integer boundaries (overflow, underflow, i64::MAX)?
+- What happens with malformed or adversarial input (invalid UTF-8, huge payloads, deeply nested JSON)?
+- Are all error paths tested? Does every `?` propagation make sense?
+- Are partial failures handled (e.g. wrote to DB but failed to emit event)?
+
+### 4c. Security (assume a malicious actor)
+
+- **Authentication/Authorization bypass**: Can an unauthenticated user reach this? Can workspace A's user access workspace B's data? Are there IDOR vulnerabilities?
+- **Injection**: SQL injection via string interpolation? Command injection? Log injection? Header injection?
+- **Data leakage**: Are secrets, PII, or conversation content logged? Returned in error messages? Exposed in API responses?
+- **Resource exhaustion / DoS**: Can an attacker send unbounded input? Trigger expensive operations without rate limits? Cause OOM via large allocations?
+- **Financial abuse**: Can tokens/credits be consumed without being tracked? Can usage limits be bypassed?
+- **Replay / race conditions**: Can the same request be replayed for double-spend? Can concurrent requests bypass limits?
+- **Cryptographic issues**: Timing attacks on comparisons? Weak randomness? Missing HMAC verification?
+
+### 4d. Test coverage
+
+- Is every new public function/method tested?
+- Are error paths tested (not just happy paths)?
+- Are edge cases covered (empty input, boundary values, concurrent access)?
+- Do existing tests still make sense with the new changes, or do they assert stale behavior?
+- Are there integration/e2e tests for the full flow?
+- If a test is missing, describe exactly what test should be written.
+
+### 4e. Documentation and assumptions
+
+- Are new assumptions documented in comments? (e.g. "this field is always non-empty because X")
+- Are non-obvious algorithms or business rules explained?
+- Are API contracts (request/response shapes, error codes, status codes) documented?
+- Are there TODO/FIXME/HACK comments that should be tracked as issues?
+
+### 4f. Architectural concerns
+
+- Does this change follow existing patterns in the codebase, or does it introduce a new one without justification?
+- Are there unnecessary abstractions or premature generalizations?
+- Is there duplicated logic that should be extracted?
+- Are dependencies between modules clean, or does this create circular/tight coupling?
+- Will this change make future work harder?
+
+## Step 5: Present findings
+
+Summarize findings to the user as a table:
+
+| # | Severity | Category | File:Line | Finding | Suggested Fix |
+|---|----------|----------|-----------|---------|---------------|
+
+Severity levels:
+- **Critical**: Security vulnerability, data loss, or financial exploit
+- **High**: Bug that will cause incorrect behavior in production
+- **Medium**: Robustness issue, missing validation, or incomplete error handling
+- **Low**: Style, naming, documentation, or minor improvement
+- **Nit**: Optional suggestion, take-it-or-leave-it
+
+Ask the user which findings to post as PR comments. Default: all Critical, High, and Medium.
+
+## Step 6: Post comments on GitHub
+
+Resolve the repo owner and name if not already known:
+
+```
+gh repo view --json owner,name --jq '"\(.owner.login)/\(.name)"'
+```
+
+For each approved finding, post a review comment on the PR at the specific file and line. Use the `headRefOid` from Step 1 as the `commit_id`:
+
+```
+gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/{number}/comments \
+  -f body="..." \
+  -f path="..." \
+  -f commit_id="{headRefOid}" \
+  -F line=... \
+  -f side="RIGHT"
+```
+
+For findings that span multiple locations or are architectural, post as a regular PR comment:
+
+```
+gh pr comment {number} --body "..."
+```
+
+Format each comment clearly:
+- Severity tag (e.g. `**High Severity**`)
+- One-line summary
+- Detailed explanation of the issue
+- Concrete suggestion for the fix (with code if possible)
+
+## Rules
+
+- Read every changed file in full before writing a single finding. Context matters.
+- Never post a comment about code you haven't actually read. Verify line numbers against the actual file.
+- Be specific. "This might have issues" is useless. "Line 42 returns 404 but should return 400 because X" is useful.
+- Distinguish between "this IS a bug" and "this COULD be a bug if X". Be honest about certainty.
+- Don't nitpick formatting or style unless it causes actual confusion. Focus on substance.
+- If the code is good and you find nothing, say so. Don't invent problems to look thorough.
+- Respect the project's CLAUDE.md privacy rules: never include customer data, secrets, or PII in comments.
+- When in doubt about severity, round up. It's cheaper to dismiss a false alarm than to miss a real bug.

 ## Database
 
-Single migration in `migrations/V1__initial.sql`. Tables:
+IronClaw supports two database backends, selected at compile time via Cargo feature flags and at runtime via the `DATABASE_BACKEND` environment variable.
+
+**IMPORTANT: All new features that touch persistence MUST support both backends.** Implement the operation as a method on the `Database` trait in `src/db/mod.rs`, then add the implementation in both `src/db/postgres.rs` (delegate to Store/Repository) and `src/db/libsql_backend.rs` (native SQL).
+
+### Backends
+
+| Backend | Feature Flag | Default | Use Case |
+|---------|-------------|---------|----------|
+| PostgreSQL | `postgres` (default) | Yes | Production, existing deployments |
+| libSQL/Turso | `libsql` | No | Zero-dependency local mode, edge, Turso cloud |
+
+```bash
+# Build with PostgreSQL only (default)
+cargo build
+
+# Build with libSQL only
+cargo build --no-default-features --features libsql
+
+# Build with both backends available
+cargo build --features "postgres,libsql"
+```
+
+### Database Trait
+
+The `Database` trait (`src/db/mod.rs`) defines ~60 async methods covering all persistence:
+- Conversations, messages, metadata
+- Jobs, actions, LLM calls, estimation snapshots
+- Sandbox jobs, job events
+- Routines, routine runs
+- Tool failures, settings
+- Workspace: documents, chunks, hybrid search
+
+Both backends implement this trait. PostgreSQL delegates to the existing `Store` + `Repository`. libSQL implements native SQLite-dialect SQL.
+
+### Schema
+
+**PostgreSQL:** `migrations/V1__initial.sql` (351 lines). Uses pgvector for embeddings, tsvector for FTS, PL/pgSQL functions. Managed by `refinery`.
+
+**libSQL:** `src/db/libsql_migrations.rs` (consolidated schema, ~480 lines). Translates PG types:
+- `UUID` -> `TEXT`, `TIMESTAMPTZ` -> `TEXT` (ISO-8601), `JSONB` -> `TEXT`
+- `VECTOR(1536)` -> `F32_BLOB(1536)` with `libsql_vector_idx`
+- `tsvector`/`ts_rank_cd` -> FTS5 virtual table with sync triggers
+- PL/pgSQL functions -> SQLite triggers

+
+### Current Limitations (libSQL backend)
+
+- **Workspace/memory system** not yet wired through Database trait (requires Store migration)
+- **Secrets store** not yet available (still requires PostgresSecretsStore)
+- **Hybrid search** uses FTS5 only (vector search via libsql_vector_idx not yet implemented)
+- **Settings reload from DB** skipped (Config::from_db requires Store)
+- No incremental migration versioning (schema is CREATE IF NOT EXISTS, no ALTER TABLE support yet)
+- **No encryption at rest** -- The local SQLite database file stores conversation content, job data, workspace memory, and other application data in plaintext. Only secrets (API tokens, credentials) are encrypted via AES-256-GCM before storage. Users handling sensitive data should use full-disk encryption (FileVault, LUKS, BitLocker) or consider the PostgreSQL backend with TDE/encrypted storage.
+- **JSON merge patch vs path-targeted update** -- The libSQL backend uses RFC 7396 JSON Merge Patch (`json_patch`) for metadata updates, while PostgreSQL uses path-targeted `jsonb_set`. Merge patch replaces top-level keys entirely, which may drop nested keys not present in the patch. Callers should avoid relying on partial nested object updates in metadata fields.

+
+Some modules have a `README.md` that serves as the authoritative specification
+for that module's behavior. When modifying code in a module that has a spec:
+
+1. **Read the spec first** before making changes
+2. **Code follows spec**: if the spec says X, the code must do X
+3. **Update both sides**: if you change behavior, update the spec to match;
+   if you're implementing a spec change, update the code to match
+4. **Spec is the tiebreaker**: when code and spec disagree, the spec is correct
+   (unless the spec is clearly outdated, in which case fix the spec first)

+## Review & Fix Discipline
+
+Hard-won lessons from code review -- follow these when fixing bugs or addressing review feedback.
+
+### Fix the pattern, not just the instance
+When a reviewer flags a bug (e.g., TOCTOU race in INSERT + SELECT-back), search the entire codebase for all instances of that same pattern. A fix in `SecretsStore::create()` that doesn't also fix `WasmToolStore::store()` is half a fix.
+
+### Propagate architectural fixes to satellite types
+If a core type changes its concurrency model (e.g., `LibSqlBackend` switches to connection-per-operation), every type that was handed a resource from the old model (e.g., `LibSqlSecretsStore`, `LibSqlWasmToolStore` holding a single `Connection`) must also be updated. Grep for the old type across the codebase.
+
+### Schema translation is more than DDL
+When translating a database schema between backends (PostgreSQL to libSQL, etc.), check for:
+- **Indexes** -- diff `CREATE INDEX` statements between the two schemas
+- **Seed data** -- check for `INSERT INTO` in migrations (e.g., `leak_detection_patterns`)
+- **Semantic differences** -- document where SQL functions behave differently (e.g., `json_patch` vs `jsonb_set`)
+
+### Feature flag testing
+When adding feature-gated code, test compilation with each feature in isolation:
+```bash
+cargo check                                          # default features
+cargo check --no-default-features --features libsql  # libsql only
+cargo check --all-features                           # all features
+```
+Dead code behind the wrong `#[cfg]` gate will only show up when building with a single feature.
+
+### Mechanical verification before committing
+Run these checks on changed files before committing:
+- `grep -rnE '\.unwrap\(|\.expect\(' <files>` -- no panics in production
+- `grep -rn 'super::' <files>` -- use `crate::` imports
+- If you fixed a pattern bug, `grep` for other instances of that pattern across `src/`

+# Discord Channel for IronClaw
+
+WASM channel for Discord integration - handle slash commands and button interactions via webhooks.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Slash Commands** - Process Discord slash commands
+- **Button Interactions** - Handle button clicks
+- **Thread Support** - Respond in threads
+- **DM Support** - Handle direct messages
+
+## Setup
+
+1. Create a Discord Application at <https://discord.com/developers/applications>
+2. Create a Bot and get the token
+3. Set up Interactions URL to point to your IronClaw instance
+4. Copy the Application ID and Public Key
+5. Store in IronClaw secrets:
+
+   ```bash
+   ironclaw secret set discord_bot_token YOUR_BOT_TOKEN
+   ```
+
+   **Note:** The `discord_bot_token` secret is the only value read directly by this
+   Discord channel WASM component. The `discord_app_id` and `discord_public_key`
+   secrets are used by the IronClaw host (for example, to verify Discord
+   interaction signatures and manage slash command registration) and are not
+   accessed from the WASM module itself.
+
+## Discord Configuration
+
+### Register Slash Commands
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST \
+  -H "Authorization: Bot YOUR_BOT_TOKEN" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  https://discord.com/api/v10/applications/YOUR_APP_ID/commands \
+  -d '{
+    "name": "ask",
+    "description": "Ask the AI agent",
+    "options": [{
+      "name": "question",
+      "description": "Your question",
+      "type": 3,
+      "required": true
+    }]
+  }'
+```
+
+### Set Interactions Endpoint
+
+In your Discord app settings, set:
+
+- Interactions Endpoint URL: `https://your-ironclaw.com/webhook/discord`
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Slash Command
+
+User types: `/ask question: What is the weather?`
+
+The agent receives:
+
+```text
+User: @username
+Content: /ask question: What is the weather?
+```
+
+### Button Click
+
+When a user clicks a button in a message, the agent receives:
+
+```text
+User: @username
+Content: [Button clicked] Original message content
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+If an internal error occurs (e.g., metadata serialization failure), the tool attempts to send an ephemeral message to the user:
+
+```text
+❌ Internal Error: Failed to process command metadata.
+```
+
+Check the host logs for detailed error information.
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Embeds
+
+To send embeds, include an `embeds` array in the `metadata_json` field of the agent's response. The structure should match the Discord API `embed` object.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Invalid Signature"
+
+- Check that `discord_public_key` is set correctly in IronClaw secrets.
+- This validation happens on the host before reaching the WASM.
+
+### "401 Unauthorized"
+
+- Check that `discord_bot_token` is set correctly in IronClaw secrets.
+- Ensure the bot is added to the server.
+
+### "Interaction Failed"
+
+- The interaction might have timed out (Discord requires a response within 3 seconds).
+- The `interactions_endpoint_url` might be unreachable.
+
+## Building
+
+```bash
+cd channels-src/discord
+cargo build --target wasm32-wasi --release
+```

 ## Building and Deploying
 
+### Supply Chain Security: No Committed Binaries
+
+**Do not commit compiled WASM binaries.** They are a supply chain risk — the binary in a PR may not match the source. IronClaw builds channels from source:
+
+- `cargo build` automatically builds `telegram.wasm` via `build.rs`
+- The built binary is in `.gitignore` and is not committed
+- CI should run `cargo build` (or `./scripts/build-all.sh`) to produce releases
+
+**Reproducible build:**
+```bash
+cargo build --release
+```
+
+Prerequisites: `rustup target add wasm32-wasip2`, `cargo install wasm-tools` (optional; fallback copies raw WASM if unavailable).
+
+### Telegram Channel (Manual Build)
+
+```bash
+# Add WASM target if needed
+rustup target add wasm32-wasip2
+
+# Build Telegram channel
+./channels-src/telegram/build.sh
+
+# Install (or use ironclaw onboard to install bundled channel)
+mkdir -p ~/.ironclaw/channels
+cp channels-src/telegram/telegram.wasm channels-src/telegram/telegram.capabilities.json ~/.ironclaw/channels/
+```
+
+**Note**: The main IronClaw binary bundles `telegram.wasm` via `include_bytes!`. When modifying the Telegram channel source, run `./channels-src/telegram/build.sh` **before** building the main crate, so the updated WASM is included.
+
+### Other Channels
+
 ```bash
 # Build the WASM component
-cd channels/my-channel
-cargo component build --release
+cd channels-src/my-channel
+cargo build --release --target wasm32-wasip2
 
 # Deploy to ~/.ironclaw/channels/

+# Telegram Channel Setup
+
+This guide covers configuring the Telegram channel for IronClaw, including DM pairing for access control.
+
+## Overview
+
+The Telegram channel lets you interact with IronClaw via Telegram DMs and groups. It supports:
+
+- **Webhook mode** (recommended): Instant delivery via tunnel
+- **Polling mode**: No tunnel required; ~30s delay
+- **DM pairing**: Approve unknown users before they can message the agent
+- **Group mentions**: `@YourBot` or `/command` to trigger in groups
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- IronClaw installed and configured (`ironclaw onboard`)
+- A Telegram bot token from [@BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather)
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Create a Bot
+
+1. Message [@BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather) on Telegram
+2. Send `/newbot` and follow the prompts
+3. Copy the bot token (e.g., `123456789:ABCdefGHIjklMNOpqrsTUVwxyz`)
+
+### 2. Configure via Setup Wizard
+
+```bash
+ironclaw onboard
+```
+
+When prompted, enable the Telegram channel and paste your bot token. The wizard will:
+
+- Validate the token
+- Optionally configure a webhook secret
+- Set up tunnel (if you want webhook mode)
+
+### 3. (Optional) Configure Tunnel for Webhooks
+
+For instant message delivery, expose your agent via a tunnel:
+
+```bash
+# ngrok
+ngrok http 8080
+
+# Cloudflare
+cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:8080
+```
+
+Set the tunnel URL in settings or via `TUNNEL_URL` env var. Without a tunnel, the channel uses polling (~30s delay).
+
+## DM Pairing
+
+When an unknown user DMs your bot, they receive a pairing code. You must approve them before they can message the agent.
+
+### Flow
+
+1. Unknown user sends a message to your bot
+2. Bot replies: `To pair with this bot, run: ironclaw pairing approve telegram ABC12345`
+3. You run: `ironclaw pairing approve telegram ABC12345`
+4. User is added to the allow list; future messages are delivered
+
+### Commands
+
+```bash
+# List pending pairing requests
+ironclaw pairing list telegram
+
+# List as JSON
+ironclaw pairing list telegram --json
+
+# Approve a user by code
+ironclaw pairing approve telegram ABC12345
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+Edit `~/.ironclaw/channels/telegram.capabilities.json` (or the config injected by the host):
+
+| Option | Values | Default | Description |
+|--------|--------|---------|-------------|
+| `dm_policy` | `open`, `allowlist`, `pairing` | `pairing` | `open` = allow all; `allowlist` = config + approved only; `pairing` = allowlist + send pairing reply to unknown |
+| `allow_from` | `["user_id", "username", "*"]` | `[]` | Pre-approved IDs/usernames. `*` allows everyone. |
+| `owner_id` | Telegram user ID | `null` | When set, only this user can message (overrides dm_policy) |
+| `bot_username` | Bot username (no @) | `null` | Used for mention detection in groups; when set, only strips this mention from messages |
+| `respond_to_all_group_messages` | `true`/`false` | `false` | When true, respond to all group messages; when false, only @mentions and /commands |
+
+## Manual Installation
+
+If the channel isn't installed via the wizard:
+
+```bash
+# Build the Telegram channel (requires wasm32-wasip2 target)
+rustup target add wasm32-wasip2
+./channels-src/telegram/build.sh
+
+# Install
+mkdir -p ~/.ironclaw/channels
+cp channels-src/telegram/telegram.wasm channels-src/telegram/telegram.capabilities.json ~/.ironclaw/channels/
+```
+
+## Secrets
+
+The channel expects a secret named `telegram_bot_token`. Configure via:
+
+- **Setup wizard**: Saves to encrypted secrets store
+- **Environment**: `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=your_token`
+- **Secrets store**: `ironclaw` CLI (if available)
+
+## Webhook Secret (Optional)
+
+For webhook validation, set `telegram_webhook_secret` in secrets. Telegram will send `X-Telegram-Bot-Api-Secret-Token` with each request; the host validates it before forwarding.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Messages not delivered
+
+- **Polling mode**: Check logs for `getUpdates` errors. Ensure the bot token is valid.
+- **Webhook mode**: Verify tunnel is running and `TUNNEL_URL` is correct. Telegram requires HTTPS.
+
+### Pairing code not received
+
+- Verify the channel can send messages (HTTP allowlist includes `api.telegram.org`)
+- Check `dm_policy` is `pairing` (not `allowlist` which blocks without reply)
+
+### Group mentions not working
+
+- Set `bot_username` in config to your bot's username (e.g., `MyIronClawBot`)
+- Ensure the message contains `@YourBot` or starts with `/`
+
+### "Connection refused" when starting
+
+- For webhook mode: Start your tunnel before `ironclaw run`
+- For polling only: No tunnel needed; ignore tunnel-related warnings

+//! Routine execution engine.
+//!
+//! Handles loading routines, checking triggers, enforcing guardrails,
+//! and executing both lightweight (single LLM call) and full-job routines.
+//!
+//! The engine runs two independent loops:
+//! - A **cron ticker** that polls the DB every N seconds for due cron routines
+//! - An **event matcher** called synchronously from the agent main loop
+//!
+//! Lightweight routines execute inline (single LLM call, no scheduler slot).
+//! Full-job routines are delegated to the existing `Scheduler`.
