+---
+
+Add a new SSE event called `$ARGUMENTS` to the IronClaw web gateway. This involves changes across 5 files in a specific order. Follow each step exactly.
+
+## Step 1: Add `StatusUpdate` variant
+
+**File**: `src/channels/channel.rs`
+
+Find the `StatusUpdate` enum and add a new variant. Use the event name in PascalCase. Include any fields the event needs as named fields (not a generic String).
+
+Example for reference (existing variants):
+```rust
+pub enum StatusUpdate {
+    Thinking(String),
+    ToolStarted { name: String },
+    ToolCompleted { name: String, success: bool },
+    Status(String),
+    ApprovalNeeded {
+        request_id: String,
+        tool_name: String,
+        description: String,
+        parameters: serde_json::Value,
+    },
+}
+```
+
+## Step 2: Map to `SseEvent` in web channel
+
+**File**: `src/channels/web/mod.rs`
+
+Find the `send_status` method in the `Channel` impl for `WebChannel`. Add a match arm for the new `StatusUpdate` variant that maps it to an `SseEvent`. The SSE event name should be snake_case.
+
+Look at existing match arms for the pattern. The event data is serialized as JSON.
+
+## Step 3: Add types if needed
+
+**File**: `src/channels/web/types.rs`
+
+If the event carries structured data beyond a simple string, add a serializable DTO struct here. Use `#[derive(Debug, Clone, Serialize, Deserialize)]`. Follow the existing patterns in the file.
+
+## Step 4: Add frontend handler
+
+**File**: `src/channels/web/static/app.js`
+
+In the `connectSSE()` function, add a new `eventSource.addEventListener()` for the snake_case event name. Parse the JSON data and call a handler function.
+
+Create the handler function that updates the DOM. Follow existing patterns:
+- `showApproval(data)` for complex card-style UI
+- `addMessage(role, content)` for simple text
+- `setStatus(text, spinning)` for status bar updates
+
+## Step 5: Add CSS if needed
+
+**File**: `src/channels/web/static/style.css`
+
+If the event needs custom UI (cards, badges, etc.), add styles. Follow the existing naming conventions (`.approval-card`, `.log-entry`, etc.).
+
+## Step 6: Send the event from Rust
+
+Identify where in the backend this event should be triggered. Common locations:
+- `src/agent/agent_loop.rs` - During message processing or tool execution
+- `src/agent/worker.rs` - During job execution
+- `src/agent/heartbeat.rs` - During periodic execution
+
+Use the existing pattern:
+```rust
+let _ = self.channels.send_status(
+    &message.channel,
+    StatusUpdate::YourNewVariant { ... },
+    &message.metadata,
+).await;
+```
+
+## Step 7: Quality gate
+
+Run `cargo fmt` and `cargo clippy --all --benches --tests --examples --all-features` to verify the changes compile cleanly.
+
+## Checklist
+
+Before finishing, verify:
+- [ ] `StatusUpdate` variant added in `channel.rs`
+- [ ] Match arm added in `web/mod.rs` `send_status`
+- [ ] DTO added in `types.rs` (if needed)
+- [ ] `addEventListener` added in `app.js`
+- [ ] Handler function created in `app.js`
+- [ ] CSS styles added (if needed)
+- [ ] Event sent from appropriate backend location
+- [ ] `cargo fmt` clean
+- [ ] `cargo clippy` clean
+- [ ] Non-web channels unaffected (they ignore unknown StatusUpdate variants)

+description: Scaffold a new tool (WASM or built-in Rust) with all boilerplate wired up
+allowed-tools: Read, Edit, Write, Glob, Grep, Bash(cargo fmt:*), Bash(cargo clippy:*), Bash(cargo test:*), Bash(cargo component:*), Bash(ls:*), Bash(mkdir:*)
+argument-hint: <tool_name> [description]
+model: opus
+---
+
+Scaffold a new tool called `$ARGUMENTS` for the IronClaw agent. First, determine the tool type and then follow the appropriate path.
+
+## Step 0: Determine tool type
+
+Ask the user which type of tool to create:
+
+- **WASM tool** (recommended) - Sandboxed, dynamically loadable, external API integrations. Lives in `tools-src/<name>/`. This is the right choice for anything that talks to an external service (Notion, GitHub, Discord, etc.).
+- **Built-in tool** - Compiled into the main binary. Only for core agent infrastructure (e.g., memory, file ops, shell). Lives in `src/tools/builtin/<name>.rs`.
+
+If the description clearly implies an external service integration, default to WASM. If it's a core agent capability, default to built-in.
+
+---
+
+## Path A: WASM Tool
+
+### A1: Create directory structure
+
+Create `tools-src/<name>/` with:
+
+```
+tools-src/<name>/
+├── Cargo.toml
+├── <name>-tool.capabilities.json
+└── src/
+    ├── lib.rs
+    ├── types.rs
+    └── api.rs
+```
+
+### A2: Write `Cargo.toml`
+
+Follow this exact pattern (adjust name and description):
+
+```toml
+[package]
+name = "<name>-tool"
+version = "0.1.0"
+edition = "2021"
+description = "<Description> tool for IronClaw (WASM component)"
+license = "MIT OR Apache-2.0"
+publish = false
+
+[lib]
+crate-type = ["cdylib"]
+
+[dependencies]
+wit-bindgen = "=0.36"
+serde = { version = "1", features = ["derive"] }
+serde_json = "1"
+
+[profile.release]
+opt-level = "s"
+lto = true
+strip = true
+codegen-units = 1
+```
+
+### A3: Write `<name>-tool.capabilities.json`
+
+Declare the tool's security requirements. Determine what APIs it needs and create the allowlist. Reference `tools-src/slack/slack-tool.capabilities.json` for the format.
+
+Key sections to include:
+- `http.allowlist` - API endpoints (host, path_prefix, methods)
+- `http.credentials` - Secret injection config (secret_name, location type: bearer/header/query)
+- `http.rate_limit` - requests_per_minute, requests_per_hour
+- `http.timeout_secs`
+- `secrets.allowed_names` - Which secrets the tool can check existence of
+- `auth` - Authentication setup (OAuth or manual token entry)
+
+If the tool needs OAuth, include:
+```json
+{
+  "auth": {
+    "secret_name": "<service>_token",
+    "display_name": "<Service>",
+    "oauth": {
+      "authorization_url": "https://...",
+      "token_url": "https://...",
+      "client_id_env": "<SERVICE>_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID",
+      "client_secret_env": "<SERVICE>_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET",
+      "scopes": [],
+      "use_pkce": false
+    },
+    "env_var": "<SERVICE>_TOKEN"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+If no OAuth, include manual setup instructions:
+```json
+{
+  "auth": {
+    "secret_name": "<service>_api_key",
+    "display_name": "<Service>",
+    "instructions": "Get your API key from <url>",
+    "setup_url": "https://...",
+    "token_hint": "Starts with '<prefix>'",
+    "env_var": "<SERVICE>_API_KEY"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### A4: Write `src/types.rs`
+
+Define the action enum using serde's tagged enum pattern:
+
+```rust
+use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};
+
+#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
+#[serde(tag = "action", rename_all = "snake_case")]
+pub enum <Name>Action {
+    // Add variants based on the tool's capabilities.
+    // Each variant maps to one API operation.
+}
+```
+
+Add result structs with `#[derive(Debug, Serialize)]`. Use `#[serde(skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]` for optional fields.
+
+### A5: Write `src/api.rs`
+
+Implement the API calls using the host HTTP capability:
+
+```rust
+use crate::near::agent::host;
+use crate::types::*;
+
+const API_BASE: &str = "https://api.example.com";
+
+fn api_call(method: &str, endpoint: &str, body: Option<&str>) -> Result<String, String> {
+    let url = format!("{}/{}", API_BASE, endpoint);
+    let headers = if body.is_some() {
+        r#"{"Content-Type": "application/json"}"#
+    } else {
+        "{}"
+    };
+    let body_bytes = body.map(|b| b.as_bytes().to_vec());
+
+    host::log(host::LogLevel::Debug, &format!("API: {} {}", method, endpoint));
+
+    let response = host::http_request(method, &url, headers, body_bytes.as_deref())?;
+
+    if response.status < 200 || response.status >= 300 {
+        return Err(format!(
+            "API returned status {}: {}",
+            response.status,
+            String::from_utf8_lossy(&response.body)
+        ));
+    }
+
+    String::from_utf8(response.body).map_err(|e| format!("Invalid UTF-8: {}", e))
+}
+```
+
+Add one function per action variant that calls `api_call` and parses the response into the result structs.
+
+### A6: Write `src/lib.rs`
+
+Wire everything together:
+
+```rust
+mod api;
+mod types;
+
+use types::<Name>Action;
+
+wit_bindgen::generate!({
+    world: "sandboxed-tool",
+    path: "../../wit/tool.wit",
+});
+
+struct <Name>Tool;
+
+impl exports::near::agent::tool::Guest for <Name>Tool {
+    fn execute(req: exports::near::agent::tool::Request) -> exports::near::agent::tool::Response {
+        match execute_inner(&req.params) {
+            Ok(result) => exports::near::agent::tool::Response {
+                output: Some(result),
+                error: None,
+            },
+            Err(e) => exports::near::agent::tool::Response {
+                output: None,
+                error: Some(e),
+            },
+        }
+    }
+
+    fn schema() -> String {
+        // Return JSON Schema matching the action enum
+        todo!("Fill in JSON Schema")
+    }
+
+    fn description() -> String {
+        "<Description>".to_string()
+    }
+}
+
+fn execute_inner(params: &str) -> Result<String, String> {
+    // Check required secrets
+    if !crate::near::agent::host::secret_exists("<secret_name>") {
+        return Err("<Secret> not configured. Please add the '<secret_name>' secret.".to_string());
+    }
+
+    let action: <Name>Action =
+        serde_json::from_str(params).map_err(|e| format!("Invalid parameters: {}", e))?;
+
+    crate::near::agent::host::log(
+        crate::near::agent::host::LogLevel::Info,
+        &format!("Executing action: {:?}", action),
+    );
+
+    let result = match action {
+        // Dispatch to api:: functions for each variant
+    };
+
+    Ok(result)
+}
+
+export!(<Name>Tool);
+```
+
+Fill in the `schema()` with a proper JSON Schema using `oneOf` for each action variant. Reference `tools-src/slack/src/lib.rs` for the exact pattern.
+
+### A7: Verify
+
+Run `cargo fmt` in the tool directory. If `cargo-component` is available, run `cargo component build --release` to verify the WASM compiles.
+
+---
+
+## Path B: Built-in Tool
+
+### B1: Create the tool file
+
+Create `src/tools/builtin/<name>.rs` implementing the `Tool` trait:
+
+```rust
+use async_trait::async_trait;
+
+use crate::context::JobContext;
+use crate::tools::tool::{Tool, ToolError, ToolOutput};
+
+pub struct <Name>Tool;
+
+#[async_trait]
+impl Tool for <Name>Tool {
+    fn name(&self) -> &str {
+        "<snake_case_name>"
+    }
+
+    fn description(&self) -> &str {
+        "<Description>"
+    }
+
+    fn parameters_schema(&self) -> serde_json::Value {
+        serde_json::json!({
+            "type": "object",
+            "properties": {
+                // Define parameters here
+            },
+            "required": []
+        })
+    }
+
+    async fn execute(
+        &self,
+        params: serde_json::Value,
+        _ctx: &JobContext,
+    ) -> Result<ToolOutput, ToolError> {
+        let start = std::time::Instant::now();
+
+        // Extract and validate parameters
+        // Do the work
+        // Return result
+
+        Ok(ToolOutput::text("result", start.elapsed()))
+    }
+
+    fn requires_sanitization(&self) -> bool {
+        false // Set true if tool processes external data
+    }
+
+    fn requires_approval(&self) -> bool {
+        false // Set true if tool is destructive or contacts external services
+    }
+}
+```
+
+If the tool needs shared state (HTTP client, config), add a struct field and `new()` constructor:
+
+```rust
+pub struct <Name>Tool {
+    client: reqwest::Client,
+}
+
+impl <Name>Tool {
+    pub fn new() -> Self {
+        Self {
+            client: reqwest::Client::builder()
+                .timeout(std::time::Duration::from_secs(30))
+                .build()
+                .expect("Failed to create HTTP client"),
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### B2: Update `src/tools/builtin/mod.rs`
+
+Add the module declaration and pub use, keeping alphabetical order:
+
+```rust
+mod <name>;
+pub use <name>::<Name>Tool;
+```
+
+### B3: Update `src/tools/registry.rs`
+
+Add the import to the `use crate::tools::builtin::{...}` block and register the tool in the appropriate registration method:
+
+- If it's a core tool: add to `register_builtin_tools()`
+- If it needs shared state (workspace, context_manager, etc.): create a new `register_<category>_tools()` method or add to an existing one
+- Wire the new registration call in `src/main.rs` if a new method was created
+
+### B4: Add tests
+
+Add a `mod tests {}` block at the bottom of the tool file:
+
+```rust
+#[cfg(test)]
+mod tests {
+    use super::*;
+    use crate::context::JobContext;
+
+    fn test_context() -> JobContext {
+        JobContext::test_default()
+    }
+
+    #[tokio::test]
+    async fn test_<name>_basic() {
+        let tool = <Name>Tool::new();
+        let params = serde_json::json!({ /* test params */ });
+        let result = tool.execute(params, &test_context()).await;
+        assert!(result.is_ok());
+    }
+
+    #[tokio::test]
+    async fn test_<name>_missing_params() {
+        let tool = <Name>Tool::new();
+        let params = serde_json::json!({});
+        let result = tool.execute(params, &test_context()).await;
+        assert!(matches!(result, Err(ToolError::InvalidParameters(_))));
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### B5: Quality gate
+
+Run `cargo fmt` and `cargo clippy --all --benches --tests --examples --all-features`. Fix any issues.
+
+Run the new tests: `cargo test --lib -- builtin::<name>::tests`
+
+---
+
+## Checklist
+
+Before finishing, verify:
+- [ ] Tool type chosen (WASM or built-in) and confirmed with user
+- [ ] All files created with correct structure
+- [ ] For WASM: capabilities.json declares all needed permissions (HTTP, secrets, auth)
+- [ ] For WASM: JSON Schema in `schema()` matches the action enum variants
+- [ ] For built-in: mod.rs updated with module + pub use
+- [ ] For built-in: registry.rs imports and registers the tool
+- [ ] For built-in: tests added and passing
+- [ ] `cargo fmt` clean
+- [ ] `cargo clippy` clean (for built-in) or `cargo component build` clean (for WASM)

+description: Run the full Rust quality gate (fmt, clippy, tests) before shipping changes
+allowed-tools: Bash(cargo fmt:*), Bash(cargo clippy:*), Bash(cargo test:*)
+---
+
+Run the IronClaw shipping checklist. This is the mandatory quality gate before any change is considered done.
+
+## Steps
+
+1. **Format**: Run `cargo fmt` to normalize formatting.
+
+2. **Lint**: Run `cargo clippy --all --benches --tests --examples --all-features` and report any warnings or errors. ALL clippy warnings must be resolved before proceeding.
+
+3. **Test**: Run `cargo test --lib` to execute the full library test suite. Report the total pass/fail count.
+
+4. **Summary**: Report results for all three steps. If any step failed, list the specific errors and suggest fixes. Do NOT proceed past a failing step.
+
+If `$ARGUMENTS` is provided, treat it as a specific test filter and run `cargo test --lib -- $ARGUMENTS` instead of the full suite in step 3.
+
+The expected outcome for a clean ship is:
+- `cargo fmt` produces no changes
+- `cargo clippy` has zero warnings
+- All tests pass
+
+Note: Integration tests (`--test workspace_integration`) require a PostgreSQL database and are expected to fail locally. Only report `--lib` test failures as blocking.

+model: sonnet
+---
+
+Trace the flow of `$ARGUMENTS` through the IronClaw codebase. Your job is to map every file and function involved, identify where data transforms or could break, and report the full chain.
+
+## Architecture Reference
+
+IronClaw has three main data flow paths. Identify which one(s) are relevant and trace through them:
+
+### Message Flow (user input to LLM response)
+```
+Channel (cli/web/wasm) → IncomingMessage
+  → Agent::run() message loop (agent_loop.rs)
+    → handle_message() dispatches by Submission type
+      → SubmissionParser::parse() (submission.rs) classifies input
+      → process_user_input() for new turns
+      → process_approval() for tool approval responses
+      → handle_command() for /commands
+    → run_agentic_loop() iterates LLM calls
+      → Reasoning::respond_with_tools() (reasoning.rs)
+        → LlmProvider::complete_with_tools() (nearai_chat.rs or nearai.rs)
+      → Tool execution with approval gating
+      → Context message accumulation
+    → Response flows back through Channel::send_response()
+```
+
+### SSE Event Flow (backend status to web UI)
+```
+StatusUpdate variant (channel.rs)
+  → Channel::send_status() trait method
+    → WebChannel::send_status() (web/mod.rs) maps to SseEvent
+      → broadcast via tokio::broadcast channel
+    → SSE endpoint streams events (web/server.rs)
+      → Browser EventSource listener (app.js)
+        → DOM update function
+        → CSS styling (style.css)
+```
+
+### Tool Flow (tool definition to execution)
+```
+Tool trait impl (tools/builtin/*.rs or tools/mcp/client.rs or tools/wasm/wrapper.rs)
+  → ToolRegistry::register() (tools/registry.rs)
+  → tool_definitions() builds Vec<ToolDefinition> for LLM
+    → ToolDefinition { name, description, parameters } (llm/provider.rs)
+    → Serialized to ChatCompletionTool (nearai_chat.rs)
+  → LLM returns ToolCall { id, name, arguments }
+  → agent_loop.rs executes via execute_chat_tool()
+    → Safety layer sanitizes output
+    → Result added as ChatMessage::tool_result()
+```
+
+## Tracing Instructions
+
+1. **Read** each file in the relevant flow path, focusing on the functions that handle the data.
+2. **Identify transforms**: Where does the data change shape? (e.g., `McpTool.input_schema` → `ToolDefinition.parameters` → `ChatCompletionTool.function.parameters`)
+3. **Identify failure points**: Where could the data be lost, malformed, or misrouted?
+4. **Report the chain**: List every file:line involved, what happens at each step, and where the issue (if any) is.
+

 ## 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

+
+- **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.

 The agent reads auth config from the tool's capabilities file and provides the appropriate flow. No service-specific code in the main agent.
 
+### WASM Tools vs MCP Servers: When to Use Which
+
+Both are first-class in the extension system (`ironclaw tool install` handles both), but they have different strengths.
+
+**WASM Tools (IronClaw native)**
+
+- Sandboxed: fuel metering, memory limits, no access except what's allowlisted
+- Credentials injected by host runtime, tool code never sees the actual token
+- Output scanned for secret leakage before returning to the LLM
+- Auth (OAuth/manual) declared in `capabilities.json`, agent handles the flow
+- Single binary, no process management, works offline
+- Cost: must build yourself in Rust, no ecosystem, synchronous only
+
+**MCP Servers (Model Context Protocol)**
+
+- Growing ecosystem of pre-built servers (GitHub, Notion, Postgres, etc.)
+- Any language (TypeScript/Python most common)
+- Can do websockets, streaming, background polling
+- Cost: external process with full system access (no sandbox), manages own credentials, IronClaw can't prevent leaks
+
+**Decision guide:**
+
+| Scenario | Use |
+|----------|-----|
+| Good MCP server already exists | **MCP** |
+| Handles sensitive credentials (email send, banking) | **WASM** |
+| Quick prototype or one-off integration | **MCP** |
+| Core capability you'll maintain long-term | **WASM** |
+| Needs background connections (websockets, polling) | **MCP** |
+| Multiple tools share one OAuth token (e.g., Google suite) | **WASM** |
+
+The LLM-facing interface is identical for both (tool name, schema, execute), so swapping between them is transparent to the agent.

+## 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/`

 ## 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

+cargo build --release --target wasm32-wasip2

+# 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
