The crate reorganization renamed lib/crates/ to lib/apps|components|foundation/.
Git followed all modified files across the rename; the only conflict was the
newly added codec/cache.rs, now placed at lib/components/fabro-llm/src/codec/cache.rs.

Anthropic prompt caching is opt-in per request: without explicit
ephemeral cache_control breakpoints in the body, no cache writes or
reads ever happen. The OpenAI-compatible codec never emitted them, so
every run on openrouter Claude models billed the full conversation at
the uncached input rate on every turn (0 cache tokens on the billing
page, confirmed by OpenRouter's activity portal).
- Add a `cache_control_breakpoints` model feature declaring that a
route only caches when the request marks the cacheable prefix; set it
on the builtin OpenRouter Claude rows. Catalog build rejects the flag
without `prompt_cache`.
- Teach the Chat Completions wire shape a parts-form content variant so
a message can carry the annotation; unmarked messages keep the
plain-string form for compatibility with strict servers.
- Mark the last system message (covers tools + system upstream) and the
second-to-last user turn, counting tool results as user turns —
mirroring the anthropic codec's placement so agent loops get
incremental cache hits.
- Extract the shared placement/opt-out policy into codec::cache and
refactor the anthropic codec onto it; anthropic wire snapshots are
unchanged.
- Honor `provider_options.<name>.auto_cache = false` as an opt-out and
consume the control key instead of merging it into the body.
- Mirror the new feature through settings (fabro-config), the OpenAPI
schema, and the generated TypeScript client.

Document the contract of read_last_file_routing_json (terminal JSON
extraction only; routing validation happens downstream), extract a
shared sandbox_with_file test helper, and drop the misleading
"standalone" wording from the fallback docs.

Add two lint rules so the graph format stops silently accepting
attributes that nothing reads:
- inert_attribute: handler-specific attributes (script, language,
duration, join_policy, max_parallel, output_schema, prompt) placed on
node types that never read them. Attributes read by several handlers
(timeout), resolved for every node (fidelity, retry_policy), or
injectable via model stylesheets (model, reasoning_effort, ...) are
deliberately excluded.
- parallel_branch_inert_attribute: fidelity/thread_id on parallel
branch nodes and fork->branch edges. Branch dispatch bypasses the
fidelity lifecycle, so these are dead letters today; the warning
points at the parallel node, where fidelity does take effect.
Also reconcile the loop_restart docs with actual executor behavior:
taking a loop_restart edge restarts from the target with a fresh empty
context (visit counts preserved), on success as well as failure; the
transient_infra guard applies only to failure crossings.

Add Poolside as a built-in OpenAI-compatible provider and expose Laguna S 2.1 and XS 2.1 both directly and through OpenRouter. Include vault/env credential registration, secret redaction, live coverage, catalog tests, and user documentation.
Raises the LR graph zoom ceiling from 200% to 400%. TB is unchanged at
200%.
Zoom and pan are now tracked separately per direction instead of shared.
Switching LR to TB and back restores the viewport you left in each mode,
so a round trip no longer loses your position. Previously a single
shared zoom value was clamped down whenever you switched into TB, which
meant going LR to TB and back cost you your LR zoom.
`run-overview.tsx` holds two view states, remembered per run under
`<runId>-TB` and `<runId>-LR`. `clampZoom` and `zoomAtPoint` take a
`direction` argument and apply the matching ceiling, so the
clamp-on-direction-change effect is gone. 24 tests in
`graph-viewport.test.ts`.

## Summary
Provider `extra_headers` previously required values to be typed TOML
tables (`{ env = "X" }`, `{ literal = "Y" }`, `{ vault = "Z" }`). This
PR migrates them to the project's standard interpolation string format:
plain text for literals, `{{ env.NAME }}` tokens for environment
variables, and `{{ secrets.NAME }}` tokens for vault secrets. This
brings `extra_headers` in line with the rest of the interpolation system
and unlocks mixed-segment values like `Bearer {{ secrets.GATEWAY_TOKEN
}}`.
### What changed and why
**Config authoring surface (`fabro-config`):**
`ProviderSettings.extra_headers` changes from `Option<HashMap<String,
HeaderValueRef>>` to `Option<HashMap<String, InterpString>>`. The
`Combine` impl and all re-exports are updated accordingly.
**Catalog layer (`fabro-model`):**
`ProviderCatalogSettings.extra_headers` and
`CatalogProvider.extra_headers` become `HashMap<String, String>` — raw
interpolation source strings. This is required by the crate dependency
direction: `fabro-types` (which owns `InterpString`) depends on
`fabro-model`, so `fabro-model` cannot hold `InterpString` without
creating a cycle. The source string is re-parsed and resolved in
`fabro-auth` at credential-build time.
**Credential resolution (`fabro-auth`):** Both `CredentialResolver`
(vault-backed) and `EnvCredentialSource` (env-only) are rewritten to
parse each header source string as an `InterpString` and resolve it with
a `ResolveCtx` scoped to `env` + `secrets` only. A new
`resolve_extra_headers` helper is shared between the two paths. Vault
resolution uses `vault_token_lookup`, which wraps `vault_get_token` and
maps any non-Token vault entry to `None` — so file and OAuth vault
entries fail closed rather than resolving incorrectly. `vars.*` and
`inputs.*` tokens are not in scope and produce `Unavailable` errors
automatically.
**New error variant:** `ResolveError::Interpolation { provider, source
}` surfaces header resolution failures as diagnosable auth issues. The
inner `source` (an `InterpResolveError`) names only the token namespace
and name — never a resolved value.
**`{ literal = "..." }` guardrail removed:** `HeaderValueRef`
deliberately rejected bare string header values to discourage pasting
credentials. `InterpString` accepts any string. This is an intentional
change; the mitigation is documentation — use `{{ secrets.NAME }}` for
credential-shaped values, not bare literals.
**Redactor registration gap (noted, not fixed here):** Secrets resolved
into provider headers at the credential boundary do not flow through the
run boundary's exact-match redaction registry. Exposure is low (headers
are host-side and outbound-only, never logged), but a follow-up should
thread a registering lookup through `VaultCredentialSource`. A code
comment at the resolution site marks the gap.
### Breaking change
Existing `extra_headers` config using `{ env = "X" }`, `{ literal = "Y"
}`, or `{ vault = "Z" }` table syntax **will fail to parse** after this
change. Users must migrate to the token form: plain strings for
literals, `{{ env.X }}` for env vars, `{{ secrets.X }}` for vault
secrets. A changelog entry is included.
### Plan Summary
- Update `ProviderSettings.extra_headers` → `InterpString` in
`fabro-config`
- Collapse authoring `InterpString` → source `String` in
`provider_settings_to_catalog` (allowlisted `as_source()` call)
- Delete `HeaderValueRef` and its serde/display/parse machinery from
`fabro-model`
- Rewrite both auth resolution paths to use `InterpString::parse +
resolve_with`; add `Interpolation` error variant
- Add `vault_token_lookup` helper for token-only fail-closed vault
resolution
- Update test TOML in `fabro-llm`, builtin catalog comment in
`openrouter.toml`, and all hand-written + generated docs

## Problem
The post-node run-branch checkpoint commit runs repository commit hooks
unless `skip_git_hooks` is enabled, but its sandbox command timeout was
hardcoded to 30 seconds. Consumers whose hooks run a multi-minute gate
cannot complete a checkpoint.
## Change
Adds `commit_timeout_ms` to the existing `[run.checkpoint]` table.
- Defaults to `30000`, preserving existing behavior.
- Threads the value through config raw layer -> merge -> resolve ->
resolved settings -> `RunOptions` -> `GitState` -> both checkpoint call
sites.
- Applies the configured timeout to checkpoint `git add -A` and `git
commit`.
- Keeps old serialized run manifests compatible via serde default.
## Testing
- `cargo +nightly-2026-04-14 fmt --all`
- `cargo +nightly-2026-04-14 clippy --locked --workspace --all-targets

- `cargo nextest run --locked -p fabro-config -p fabro-types -p
fabro-workflow`
- 1795 passed, 31 skipped
- `cargo nextest run --locked -p fabro-cli
attach_json_errors_without_prompting_for_human_input`
- `cargo nextest run --locked --workspace --status-level slow --profile
ci --no-fail-fast`
- 6951 passed, 3 timed out, 187 skipped
- The 3 timeouts are preexisting on clean `upstream/main`: verified by
running `CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/data/projects/fabro/target cargo nextest run
--locked -p fabro-cli --profile ci --no-fail-fast workflow::acp::acp`
from a detached worktree at `upstream/main` (`8c7d5dc7d`), which timed
out the same three tests:
-
`workflow::acp::acp_artifacts_are_listed_when_touched_file_mtime_precedes_attempt_start`
-
`workflow::acp::acp_backend_does_not_inject_registered_provider_credentials`
- `workflow::acp::acp_backend_workflow`
## Compatibility
No behavior change without explicit opt-in. Omitted config resolves to
the existing 30 second timeout, and old serialized run manifests
deserialize unchanged.

## Summary
Move server-managed environments from sibling TOML files into SQLite,
matching the storage model already used by variables and secrets.
This adds:
- an `environments` SQLite table with DB-level validation for IDs,
revisions, providers, network modes, booleans, and JSON fields
- a SQLite-backed `EnvironmentStore` with cached synchronous reads,
transactional create/replace/delete, synthetic unpersisted `local`, and
`default` as an ordinary seeded row users can delete
- one-time legacy import from `environments/*.toml` next to the active
server `settings.toml`, including relative Dockerfile path inlining and
backup rename to `environments.imported-<timestamp>.bak`
- install/test/CLI seeding of `default` directly into SQLite instead of
writing `environments/default.toml`
- docs updates for API/SQLite-managed server environments and legacy
import behavior
The REST API shape is unchanged; path Dockerfile sources remain rejected
over the environments API.

## What
Per-step environment in `run.prepare.steps[].env` was parsed and then
**dropped** before it reached the resolved run settings, so prepare
steps could never see their declared env. This PR carries that env all
the way through to the executor, resolves prepare-step interpolation at
the run boundary, and fixes an argv-quoting bug.
Three things:
1. **Per-step env is carried through.** `RunPrepareSettings` now holds
`steps: Vec<PreparedStep>` (command plus per-step `env`) instead of a
flat `commands: Vec<String>`. The per-step env reaches `exec_command`,
which already accepts per-command env vars, and is merged on top of the
base sandbox environment.
2. **Interpolation resolves at the run boundary.** Prepare-step
`script`/`command` and per-step `env` values are carried in source form
out of the portable config resolve layer (so `fabro validate` stays
portable and never requires env to be set). Their `{{ env.* }}` tokens
resolve in the process that actually runs the steps, via
`RunPrepareSettings::resolve_step_env` — mirroring the existing MCP
transport env resolution. A missing env var is a **hard error**
(fail-closed); there is no fallback to the unresolved literal.
3. **Argv is shell-quoted.** Argv-style prepare steps were assembled
with `join(" ")`, so an argument containing spaces or quotes was
re-split by the shell. They are now shell-quoted per element with the
shared `shell_quote()` helper. `script` steps stay verbatim because they
are raw shell snippets.
## How
- `RunPrepareSettings.commands: Vec<String>` becomes
`RunPrepareSettings.steps: Vec<PreparedStep>` where `PreparedStep {
command, env }`. The server-side `{{ vars.* }}` substitution pass now
walks each step's command and env.
- New `RunPrepareSettings::resolve_step_env(env_lookup)` resolves `{{
env.* }}` in each step's command and env values, returning a hard error
on a missing var (and a loud `Unavailable` error for reserved
`secrets`/`inputs` tokens).
- The run boundary (`fabro_workflow::operations::start`) gains
`runtime_setup_commands`, the prepare-step counterpart to
`runtime_mcp_server`. `LifecycleOptions` now carries `Vec<SetupCommand>`
(command + env), and the initialize phase passes each step's env to
`exec_command`.
- `resolve_prepare` shell-quotes each argv element and carries per-step
env in source form. The stale lint suppression on the resolved fields is
rewritten to describe the deliberate source preservation that now
resolves at the run boundary.
- The shell-quoting helper moves to a shared `fabro_util::shell` module
(backed by `shlex`); `fabro_sandbox::shell_quote` delegates to it so the
config resolve layer and sandbox code share one audited implementation.
- The OpenAPI `RunPrepareSettings` schema and the generated TypeScript
client are updated to the new `steps`/`PreparedStep` shape.
## Testing
- `cargo build --workspace`
- `cargo +nightly-2026-04-14 fmt --check --all`
- `cargo +nightly-2026-04-14 clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D
warnings`
- `cargo nextest run` for `fabro-util`, `fabro-types`, `fabro-config`,
`fabro-sandbox`, `fabro-api`, `fabro-workflow`, `fabro-server`,
`fabro-cli` (provider keys stripped) — all green.
- `cd lib/packages/fabro-api-client && bun run typecheck` — clean.
New tests cover: per-step env carried through resolution; script/command
+ env resolved at the run boundary; a missing env var is a hard error
(in both the command and a per-step env value); reserved `secrets`
tokens surface as `Unavailable`; argv elements are shell-quoted (an arg
with spaces/quotes is correctly quoted) while a `script` stays verbatim;
and an end-to-end check that per-step env reaches the executed setup
command (with a negative control proving the success is attributable to
the per-step env).

## What
Makes hook interpolation typed end-to-end and fail-closed, and removes
the bespoke template engine on HTTP-hook headers.
- **Typed end-to-end.** Hook `command`, `url`, header values, `prompt`,
and `model` are now carried as a typed `InterpString` from the config
resolve layer all the way to the executor. The executor resolves each
segment at hook fire time from the typed value instead of collapsing it
to a `String` and re-parsing it. This mirrors the MCP transport env
resolution boundary (`resolve_transport_env` / `runtime_mcp_server`).
- **Narrow header tokens.** HTTP-hook headers previously ran through
MiniJinja with an env allowlist
(`TemplateContext::with_env_lookup_allowed`). They now resolve through
the same narrow `{{ ns.NAME }}` token resolver as every other hook field
— no template engine, no allowlist.
- **Fail-closed everywhere.** A missing or out-of-scope `{{ env.* }}` /
`{{ secrets.* }}` token in a command, URL, header, prompt, or model is
now a hard error that blocks the hook rather than firing it with a
half-resolved or empty value. Previously command hooks failed closed but
http/prompt/agent hooks failed open (warned and proceeded), which could
dispatch an HTTP request with an empty credential header or run an LLM
call against a half-rendered prompt. Transport-level outcomes (non-2xx
responses, connection errors, unparseable bodies) stay fail-open.
A follow-up cleanup commit removes the template engine's `env` namespace
(`with_env_lookup` / `with_env_lookup_allowed` / the `EnvLookup`
object), which the header path was the last consumer of.
## How
- `fabro-types` and `fabro-hooks` `HookType` / `HookDefinition` now type
the interpolatable fields as `InterpString`. `InterpString` serializes
as its raw source, so persisted run specs and checkpoints round-trip
unchanged.
- The `fabro-config` resolve layer clones the typed `InterpString`
through instead of calling `as_source()`, so the fields no longer leak
unresolved template text — the old "source preservation" `#[expect]`
annotations on the hook resolvers are gone.
- The executor's single `resolve_interp` helper resolves a typed
`InterpString` and is shared by the command, http, prompt, and agent
paths; resolution failure maps to `HookDecision::Block`, which the
runner already reports loudly (error for blocking hooks, warn for
non-blocking).
## Testing
- New unit tests: fire-time resolution from the typed value (no
re-parse), narrow-token header resolution, and fail-closed behavior for
HTTP url, HTTP header, and prompt hooks on a missing variable (the hook
does not fire and the resolution error surfaces).
- Existing hook tests updated and kept green.
- Gates: `cargo build --workspace`, `cargo +nightly-2026-04-14 fmt
--check --all`, `cargo +nightly-2026-04-14 clippy --workspace
--all-targets -- -D warnings`, and `cargo nextest run` for the touched
crates (`fabro-hooks`, `fabro-types`, `fabro-config`, `fabro-template`,
`fabro-workflow`, `fabro-server`, and the `fabro-cli` hook/config
tests), all green.

## What
Adds the **mcp-servers HTTP API**: `GET/POST /api/v1/mcp-servers` and
`GET/PUT/DELETE /api/v1/mcp-servers/{id}` on top of the merged
`fabro-mcp-store` foundation and OpenAPI spec.
This includes the AppState wiring needed for the catalog to work end to
end: `McpServerStore` construction from `{active-config-dir}/mcps/`, an
`AppState` accessor, the `fabro-server` dependency, and route
registration for list/create/get/replace/delete handlers.
The API mirrors the automations concurrency pattern with ETags on
read/write responses and required `If-Match` headers for replace/delete.
## Resolved before merge
- **Credential-omitting read model:** read responses now return
`McpServerView` / `McpTransportView`, so stored env/header values are
not exposed by GET/list/create/replace responses. Responses include only
`env_keys` / `header_keys`; persisted values remain available to runtime
execution.
- **Manifest catalog references:** run manifest validation, graph
rendering, preflight, and run creation now resolve server-managed MCP
catalog references such as `[run.agent.mcps.<name>] id = "..."`.
- **Schema strictness:** unknown MCP transport fields are rejected,
aligning the reused Rust domain type with the OpenAPI
`additionalProperties: false` contract.
- **Create response headers:** the `POST /mcp-servers` 201 response now
documents its `ETag` header in OpenAPI.
## Follow-up intentionally left out
Credential-literal validation remains structural only: create/replace
currently accept literal env/header values and persist them for runtime
use. The warn-vs-hard-reject UX is a separate follow-up for the settings
UI; it is not a response-omission issue.
## Testing

## Summary
`fabro provider login --server ... --provider openrouter` now asks the
selected Fabro server for provider metadata before reading, validating,
and storing API keys, so server-enabled providers are accepted even when
the local CLI catalog does not know them.
This adds a server-side credential test endpoint that validates
submitted API keys against the server's effective catalog without
persisting them, then keeps saving the resulting secret to the selected
target server. OpenAI Codex device login remains client-side for the
browser/device flow, with the resulting OAuth credential stored on the
selected server.
The OpenRouter docs and model docs are updated to use the current
`--provider openrouter` login syntax and clarify that remote deployments
need the server host settings updated.

## What
Adds the HTTP contract for managing server-defined MCP servers. The
handler implementation follows in a later change.
- New `/api/v1/mcp-servers` paths: `list`, `create`, `retrieve`,
`replace`, `delete`, with ETag / `If-Match` optimistic concurrency
mirroring the automations conventions.
- New schemas: `McpServer`, `CreateMcpServerRequest`,
`ReplaceMcpServerRequest`, `McpServerListResponse`.
- **Collapsed a duplicate `McpTransport` schema** into the single
canonical one and gave it a proper `discriminator` plus the
previously-missing optional `protocol` field (`streamable_http` |
`sse`). This also fixes a latent gap in the existing run-config
projection and is non-breaking (`protocol` is `#[serde(default)]`).
## Testing
- `cargo build -p fabro-api` is green — progenitor generates the client
methods and types cleanly from the new spec.
## Notes / follow-ups for the handler change
- Recommended `with_replacement` mapping (reuse, no parallel DTOs):
`McpServer` → `McpServerDefinition`, create/replace →
`McpServerDraft`/`McpServerReplace`, transport → existing
`fabro_types::McpTransport`/`McpHttpProtocol`; list envelopes become
small DTOs.
- Parity caveat: progenitor emits `i64` for the `u64` timeouts and `i32`
for the `u16 port`; harmless under `with_replacement`, but the handler
change must add identity/JSON-parity tests and not skip
`with_replacement` for those types.
- `createMcpServer` returns ETag on 201 (Environments convention) so the
UI gets the fresh revision.
- The "warn vs hard-reject credential-looking literal values" question
is recorded in the request-schema descriptions and intentionally not
enforced.
- Part of a short series adding server-managed MCP servers.

Adds **Amazon Bedrock** as an opt-in built-in provider, over Bedrock's
unified **Converse / ConverseStream** API. One codec serves every
Converse-capable family — Claude, Amazon Nova, Meta Llama, Mistral,
DeepSeek, Moonshot Kimi, Z.AI GLM, MiniMax, NVIDIA Nemotron, and OpenAI
gpt-oss — because AWS translates the envelope to each model's native
dialect server-side. Auth is either **AWS SigV4** (the default
credential chain — env / profile / IMDS / IRSA / SSO, resolved per
request so sessions refresh) or a **Bedrock API key**
(`AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK`, bearer). Disabled by default (the Ollama /
OpenRouter opt-in pattern).
This is the redo of #459's original Claude-only `InvokeModel` adapter,
rebuilt on the gateway-refactor seams (#481–#497). @depopry's SigV4
signer, AWS event-stream frame decoder, `BedrockAuth`, the `aws_sigv4`
credential grammar, `AdapterKind::Bedrock`, region-from-base_url, and
the lean-deps decision are preserved and authored by him on the first
two commits; the per-family `BedrockCodec` trait he wrote turned out to
be the crate-wide `Codec` seam in miniature, so the refactor promoted
exactly that shape. The original Claude-only description is preserved in
a comment below.
## What's here
- **`AdapterKind::Bedrock` × `CodecKind::BedrockConverse`** on the
route, plus the `aws_sigv4` credential source (no static secret — the
adapter signs at request time; `fabro-auth` stays AWS-free).
*(@depopry)*
- **SigV4 signer + AWS event-stream `FrameDecoder`** on the lean AWS
stack (no `aws-sdk-bedrockruntime`; transport stays on `fabro-http`).
Re-targeted at Converse's direct-JSON stream frames; the signer resolves
credentials per request. *(@depopry)*
- **`bedrock_converse` codec** — Converse envelope (`system[]`, typed
content blocks, `inferenceConfig`, `toolConfig`), prompt caching via
`cachePoint`, thinking-signature round-trip through `reasoningContent`,
usage mapped onto the disjoint `TokenCounts` buckets,
`provider_options.bedrock` passthrough. Plus the adapter shell and an
event-stream byte loop beside the transport's shared SSE loop.
- **Catalog**: `bedrock.toml` (Claude incl. Fable 5, Nova 2, Llama 4,
Mistral, DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM, MiniMax, Nemotron, gpt-oss — cross-region
inference-profile ids, per-model `billing_policy` so Claude bills
Anthropic-style) and a companion **`bedrock-openai`** provider for
GPT-5.5/5.4 over the `bedrock-mantle` Responses endpoint (pure config
over the existing `openai_responses` codec, zero new code).
- Secrets registry (`AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK`), gitleaks rules for both
Bedrock key formats, the `docs/integrations/bedrock` guide, and live e2e
tests.
## Live verification (confirmed end-to-end against a real AWS account)
Verified on a real Bedrock account (us-east-2, SigV4 + bearer):
- **SigV4 + Converse** — multiple families (Claude, Nova, DeepSeek, …)
via the full settings → catalog → route → adapter → codec path.
- **ConverseStream** — streaming deltas through the workflow engine.
- **Multi-turn tool use** — agent loop with tool calls round-tripping
(no-arg tools included).
- **Multi-model routing** — Claude + DeepSeek pinned in one run through
the single Converse codec.
- **mantle Responses** — `openai.gpt-5.5` answered via the
`bedrock-openai` provider (bearer auth).
The exercise caught and fixed several issues that unit tests (static
creds, mocked transports) could not — see the follow-up commits below.
## Follow-up fixes from live testing (commits on top of the foundation)
1. **Worker AWS env** — the workflow worker scrubs its env to an
allowlist, so SigV4 (which re-resolves from the ambient chain per
request) couldn't work through `fabro run`. The AWS credential-chain
inputs now cross into the worker.
2. **Vault bearer key** — Bedrock was the only key-based provider
missing a `vault:` credential ref, so `fabro secret set
AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK` silently didn't feed it. Now resolves env →
vault → SigV4.
3. **Converse tool-encoding hardening** — a no-arg tool call's
`toolUse.input` is now a `{}` object (Bedrock rejects null), and every
tool `inputSchema` gets a top-level `type: "object"` (strict families
like DeepSeek reject a typeless schema Claude tolerates).
4. **Nova output cap** — `amazon.nova-2-lite` max_output 65536 → 65535
(Bedrock's per-request limit).
Earlier fixes already folded into the foundation commits: the
`aws-config` sleep-impl (default chain panicked) and AWS error-body
decoding (top-level `message`/`Message`/`__type` → proper messages
instead of "Unknown error").
## Manual testing & setup
See `docs/integrations/bedrock` — now documents the non-obvious account
setup that live testing surfaced: the per-Region Anthropic use-case
approval, `aws-marketplace:Subscribe` for third-party models, the Fable
5 / Mythos-class data-sharing opt-in, and the bearer-vs-SigV4 precedence
override for running Converse + mantle side by side.
## Open decision / discussion
- **Model-id naming** — Bedrock rows use dotted ids mirroring Bedrock's
native inference-profile ids (`us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-6`,
`openai.gpt-5.5`), which also makes them the wire `api_id`. Third scheme
alongside bare ids and OpenRouter's `vendor/model` slashes. No collision
risk (enforced at catalog build). Open to a uniform scheme if preferred.
- **`BEDROCK_API_KEY` alias** — see the comment thread; the AWS console
hands some users `export BEDROCK_API_KEY=` while the SDK-standard var is
`AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK`. Question of whether to accept both.
## Deferred (named follow-ups)
- **`qwen.qwen3-coder-next`** — omitted pending a verified Bedrock
model/inference-profile id (its fabro id isn't a valid Bedrock
identifier; needs an explicit `api_id`). Re-add once confirmed via `aws
bedrock list-inference-profiles`.
- **Claude Mythos 5** — Anthropic-Messages-only on `bedrock-mantle`
(limited preview).
- **Converse structured output** (`response_format` rejected with a
clear error).
- **`reasoning_effort` on Converse rows** via
`additionalModelRequestFields` (the `bedrock-openai` GPT rows already
accept effort levels).
- **CountTokens** route (`count_input_tokens` returns `None`).
## Verification
`cargo nextest run --workspace`: green except the pre-existing
environment-dependent fabro-workflow failures (identical on main).
clippy `-D warnings` + pinned-nightly fmt clean. Codec unit tests +
adapter httpmock tests + frame-decoder/signer locks.

## Problem
The `local` sandbox uses the run's `source_directory` (the CLI's cwd at
invocation time) as its working directory and `create_dir_all`s it on
the server (`LocalSandbox::initialize` in `fabro-sandbox`). That is
correct when the CLI and the server share a host — the agent operates
directly on the user's project tree.
When the server is **remote** from the CLI — e.g. `fabro serve` running
in a container in Kubernetes, driven over HTTP with the `local` sandbox
— the client's cwd (e.g. `/Users/alice/project`) does not exist on the
server. The sandbox then tries to create that path as the (often
unprivileged) server user and fails at init:
```
sandbox.failed provider="local" error="Failed to create working directory" causes=["Permission denied (os error 13)"]
```
and the run dies with `workflow_error` before the agent starts.
## Fix
When `source_directory` is absent or does not exist on the server, fall
back to a server-writable `workspace` directory under the run's scratch
dir instead of recreating the client path. **Same-host behavior is
unchanged**: an existing `source_directory` is still used as-is.
The selection is extracted into a small pure helper,
`local_working_directory(source_directory, run_dir)`, so it can be
unit-tested directly.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p fabro-workflow local_working_directory` — 3 new tests
(existing source dir → used; absent → fallback;
present-but-missing-on-server → fallback)
- `cargo check -p fabro-workflow`

## What
Adds a CRUD interface for **server-managed Environments** at
`/settings/environments`, driven by the `/api/v1/environments` REST API
(list / create / retrieve / replace / delete), and reshapes how built-in
environments are provisioned and protected.
The page lives in the **Workflows** settings nav section (also
introduced in this branch), positioned before Variables.
## Why
The Environments REST API shipped (#453) but had no UI — environments
could only be managed via the API/CLI. This gives operators a web UI
alongside Variables and Secrets, and along the way tightens the model:
environments are seeded at install time (not silently re-created on
every boot), and the `default` fallback is an ordinary, deletable
environment.
## Web UI
**Pages & component**
- `settings-environments.tsx` — list view: provider badge,
image/resource summary, row actions (Edit/Delete). **"New environment"
is a dropdown** of the enabled sandbox providers; the chosen provider is
fixed for the environment's lifetime.
- `settings-environments-new.tsx` / `settings-environments-edit.tsx` —
create/edit flows; create reads the provider from a query param.
- `environment-form.tsx` — shared form, reorganized:
- **General** panel (merged identity + image): id, and an **image-source
selector** (Image reference *vs* inline Dockerfile) that shows,
requires, and sends only the selected, mutually-exclusive source.
- **Resources**: CPU / memory / disk as **range sliders** (CPU 1–8,
memory 1–16 GB, disk 1–20 GB), each always writing a concrete value.
- **Environment variables** key/value editor.
- **Advanced** progressive-disclosure section holding **Network** (a
single "Block all network access" toggle — allow-all vs block) and
**Lifecycle** (preserve / stop-on-terminal / auto-stop). Opens by
default when any advanced value is non-default.
- The in-form **provider control and the Labels editor were removed** —
labels remain API-managed and are round-tripped untouched so UI edits
never clear them.
**Data layer**: `environmentsApi` client, `queryKeys.environments`,
`useEnvironments` / `useEnvironment` SWR hooks.
**Nav & routing**: "Environments" item in the Workflows section before
Variables; routes registered in `router.tsx`.
## Backend: seed at install, deletable `default`
- **Seeding moved to install time.** The server no longer seeds
built-ins on startup; `EnvironmentStore::load_or_seed` → `load`
(load-only). A new public `seed_environments(dir)` (idempotent,
preserves operator edits) is called by both the web installer and the
CLI installer. An uninstalled instance therefore has no managed
environments, and a run selecting an absent environment fails explicitly
(`unknown environment: default`) rather than resurrecting a built-in.
- **`default` is no longer protected.** The delete guard and the
`Protected` error variant are gone; deleting `default` succeeds (204)
and removes the run fallback on purpose — forcing an explicit choice.
`local` is unchanged (reserved, in-memory).
- **`volumes` removed** from environment settings across the OpenAPI
spec, generated Rust + TS clients, config layers,
sandbox/server/workflow plumbing, docs, and tests.
## API contract details honored
- Edit sends the environment `revision` as `If-Match`; 409 conflicts
surface a "changed since you opened it" message.
- The REST API accepts inline Dockerfiles only — the form never sends a
Dockerfile path.
## Verification
- Rust: `cargo build` (touched crates) ✅, `cargo nextest -p
fabro-environment` 21/21 ✅, server env unit + `tests/it` integration 2/2
+ 15/15 ✅, `clippy` (nightly, touched crates, all targets) clean ✅, `fmt
--check` clean ✅. Full `--workspace` suite not run here — worth a CI
pass.
- Web: `bun run typecheck` ✅, `bun run build` ✅,
`environment-form.test.ts` 5/5 ✅. Web suite: 512 pass / 1 unrelated
pre-existing `RunDetail` failure.
- **Not visually verified in-browser** — the local app is login-gated
and automated loads redirect to `/login`; rendering of the form, the
New-environment dropdown, and `default` delete should be confirmed in a
logged-in session.

The first feature payoff of the gateway refactor series (#481–#496):
OpenRouter lands as **pure configuration over the `openai_compatible`
codec** — no new adapter, no new `AdapterKind`, no OpenRouter codec
fork. Redone from #438, which prototyped this pre-refactor as ~2,500
lines including a dedicated adapter and parallel codec plumbing; this
PR's fabro-llm diff is the usage-superset decode plus a TOML file.
## What's here (3 commits)
**Per-model `billing_policy` override (fabro-model)** — a model row may
override its provider's billing family: the aggregator case, where
Claude served through an OpenAI-compatible provider bills
Anthropic-style cache reads/writes. `pricing_for`/`billing_facts_for`
and the resolved `Route` read the model-effective policy; unknown
passthrough model ids keep the provider policy. Pinned by a pricing test
(cache writes bill at 1.25× input under the override, $0 under the
provider's OpenAI default).
**Aggregator usage superset in the `openai_compatible` codec** — the
wire usage struct gains tolerant optional fields:
- `prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens` / `cache_write_tokens` and
`completion_tokens_details.reasoning_tokens` normalize into their
disjoint `TokenCounts` buckets with the same subtraction convention as
the `openai_responses` codec
- in-band `usage.cost` (OpenRouter returns it on every response)
surfaces as `Response.cost_usd` with `cost_source = authoritative`, on
both blocking and streamed responses — #494's client-side estimate
stamping already defers to it by construction
- **deliberate behavior change owned here**: compat providers that
report cached-token details now see them split out of `input_tokens`
(previously ignored — the wire pin placed in PR 0 anticipating exactly
this change flips, and two new OpenRouter-shaped wire pins land)
**The provider package** — `openrouter.toml` (disabled by default, the
Ollama opt-in pattern; curated vendor-namespaced model list; Claude rows
set `billing_policy = "anthropic"`; attribution headers deliberately not
sent unless the operator opts in via `extra_headers`),
`OPENROUTER_API_KEY` env/secret registry entries, a gitleaks rule for
`sk-or-v1-` keys, a live e2e test asserting authoritative cost, and docs
(integration guide + models concept + config reference).
## Deliberate scope cuts (fidelity follow-ups, per the plan)
- `reasoning_details[]` parse + verbatim multi-turn echo,
`cache_control` multipart emission, `provider`/`native_finish_reason`
field reads — the new wire pin proves they're tolerated and ignored
today
- Typed reasoning-param-style / routing codec params — no catalog row
can request reasoning effort yet (no `controls.reasoning_effort`
declared), and routing prefs already pass through
`provider_options.openrouter` verbatim via the existing
adapter-name-keyed merge; typed params land when an operator-level knob
actually needs them
- The OpenRouter Anthropic skin (`/api/v1/messages`) — a future pure
config row pairing the existing `anthropic_messages` codec with bearer
transport
## Verification
- `cargo nextest run --workspace --no-fail-fast`: 6724 passed; only the
known 5 pre-existing environment-dependent fabro-workflow failures
(identical on main)
- Wire snapshots: one deliberate flip
(`decode_usage_ignores_token_details` →
`decode_usage_parses_token_details`) + two new OpenRouter pins (blocking
cost/cache-write, streamed cost); all other snapshots unmodified
- clippy `-D warnings` + pinned-nightly fmt clean
- Builtin catalog unchanged for existing providers: OpenRouter is
`enabled = false`, so the #493 route-equivalence table is untouched
Credit to #438 for the provider research, catalog curation, gitleaks
rule, and docs structure.

Standalone pre-OpenRouter step, pulled forward from the #438 triage (the
gateway-refactor plan's "additive feature PR alongside the redo"):
completion responses carry a USD cost with provenance.
## What's here
**`Response.cost_usd` + `Response.cost_source`** — new optional fields
(`skip_serializing_if` keeps the wire shape byte-identical when unset).
`CostSource` (`authoritative` | `estimated`) lives in fabro-model's
billing vocabulary next to `UsdMicros`/`TokenCounts`, since the API
layer reuses it.
**`fabro-llm/src/cost.rs`** — `estimate_cost_usd`, a thin wrapper over
the existing `Catalog::price_tokens` billing machinery (billing-policy-
and speed-aware), ported from #438's prototype with attribution. One fix
over the prototype: model aliases and provider names are canonicalized
before building the `ModelRef` — `ModelPricing::bill` rejects
non-canonical refs, so the original would silently skip cost on alias
requests (caught by a new test).
**Client-level stamping** — one generic post-decode site instead of
#438's ~8 per-adapter sites (which predate the codec refactor):
`Client::complete` stamps blocking responses and `Client::stream` stamps
`Finish` events, beneath the middleware chain so middleware observes
final responses. Codecs stay wire-translation-only — zero wire-snapshot
churn — and every registered adapter (including custom
`register_provider` ones) gets the same treatment. Stamping never
overwrites an existing cost, so future authoritative in-band costs
(OpenRouter) take precedence by construction.
**API surface** — `cost_usd`/`cost_source` on `CompletionResponse`
(OpenAPI spec + handler + regenerated TS client). The streaming endpoint
already carries cost implicitly since `Finish` events serialize the
`Response` verbatim; this makes the blocking surface match. `CostSource`
reuses the canonical fabro-model type via `with_replacement`, with the
standard round-trip test pinning type identity and JSON parity.
## Deliberately not here (stays with the OpenRouter redo per the plan's
hard rule)
- Authoritative `usage.cost` parsing in the `openai_compatible` codec
wire structs
- Cached-token usage parsing (changes observable usage values)
- Per-model `billing_policy` schema field
## Verification
- `cargo nextest run --workspace --no-fail-fast`: 6701 passed; only the
known 5 pre-existing environment-dependent fabro-workflow failures
(identical on main)
- All fabro-llm wire snapshots unmodified; new pins: cost estimation
unit tests (incl. alias canonicalization), Client stamping tests
(blocking, streaming, beneath middleware, no-catalog), fabro-api
`CostSource` round-trip
- clippy `-D warnings` + pinned-nightly fmt clean; `bun run typecheck`
clean in fabro-web
Independent of the route-vocabulary work in #493 — branches directly off
main. After both land, the OpenRouter redo shrinks to config + typed
codec params + authoritative-cost decode.

## Summary
Adds Anthropic Claude Fable 5 as a first-class Fabro model without
changing the default Anthropic model. The catalog now exposes
`claude-fable-5` with `fable` and `claude-fable` aliases, 1M context,
128k max output, effort levels, vision/tools, prompt caching, and the
documented pricing.
The Anthropic adapter now handles Fable's API behavior directly: it uses
the `claude-fable-5` API ID, omits the legacy 1M context beta header,
avoids injecting default `thinking`, preserves `output_config.effort`,
omits deprecated `temperature`/`top_p` sampling fields for Fable, and
rejects unsupported manual enabled/disabled thinking configs locally.
Fable refusals are converted into content-filter LLM errors with
`stop_details` preserved. Those refusal errors are fallback-eligible, so
existing `run.model.fallbacks` chains work for both prompt and agent
paths, while no-fallback refusals surface clearly as LLM errors.
## Live QA
Manually exercised the PR branch against a live Anthropic API key from
`~/.fabro.bak/.env.bak` using a temporary local harness that was removed
before commit. The run covered non-streaming completion via `fable`,
token counting via `claude-fable`, streaming completion, the deep
model-test path with tools/reasoning, local rejection of manual thinking
config, and a live refusal probe. The live run initially exposed
Anthropic's Fable rejection of `temperature`; this PR now strips
deprecated sampling fields for Fable and the live harness then passed
6/6 checks.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p fabro-llm --test live_fable_manual -- --nocapture
--test-threads=1` -> 6 passed against live Anthropic, temporary harness
removed afterward

## Summary
Adds a new `/playground` route where users build a Fabro workflow by
chatting with Ask Fabro on the right while watching a live canvas
re-render on the left. The workflow can be downloaded as a `.fabro.zip`
or — eventually — launched as a real Fabro run; today the "Run for
real" button POSTs to `/api/v1/runs` and redirects to the resulting
`/runs/{id}` page, with a placeholder project/repo/folder picker.
The feature is built as a standalone component subtree under
`apps/fabro-web/app/components/playground/` with no `AppShell` or
`react-router` dependencies, so it can be re-embedded in other contexts
later by passing `chatEndpoint`, `authMode`, and an optional
`realRunRedirect` prop.
## What changed
**Frontend (`apps/fabro-web/`)**
- New `/playground` route + `<Playground>` component tree.
- Live SVG canvas via `@viz-js/viz` with click-to-inspect (read-only
node detail panel), pan, zoom, fit-to-window, and a simulated walk
through the graph driven by a Play button.
- Docked chat sidebar (assistant-ui) wired to the new
`/api/v1/playground/chat` endpoint, with auto-retry on parse failure
and a playground-specific tool-call summary that reads
`Wrote workflow.fabro (N nodes, M edges)`.
- File tabs (`workflow.fabro` / `workflow.toml` / `README.md`),
`.fabro.zip` download via `fflate`, and a "Run for real" toolbar
button that POSTs an inline `RunManifest` to `/api/v1/runs`.
- Draft persists across page refreshes via `localStorage`.
**Backend (`lib/crates/fabro-server/`)**
- New `POST /api/v1/playground/chat` SSE endpoint. Server is stateless
across turns: each request carries the full draft, the server runs
the LLM with a single `write_workflow_file` tool, streams
`StreamEvent` frames back, and lets the client own diffing/animating
the result into the canvas.
- Request-size caps before the LLM call (50 messages, 100 nodes, 200
edges) so a misbehaving or malicious client can't drag multi-MB
transcripts through token billing.
**Spec / wire contract**
- OpenAPI: new `playground/chat` operation + four new schemas
(`CreatePlaygroundChatRequest`, `PlaygroundWorkflowDraft`,
`PlaygroundWorkflowNode`, `PlaygroundWorkflowEdge`).
- `lib/packages/fabro-api-client` not regenerated yet (the playground
uses raw `fetch`); reviewers who want the TS client to pick up the
new types can run `bun run generate` in that package.
## Key design decisions
1. **Single `write_workflow_file` tool, not six per-op tools.** The
first cut exposed `add_node`/`update_node`/`connect`/etc. as
discrete tool calls. The model would routinely add nodes without
wiring them up, leaving the canvas in a broken half-state. Pivoted
to a single tool that takes the full new `workflow.fabro` content;
the browser parses the DOT, diffs it against the local draft, and
animates the resulting reducer ops in. The model only has to "get
the file right", and the canvas still paints node-by-node thanks
to the client-side animator.
2. **Stateless server.** Each chat turn POSTs the full current draft;
nothing is persisted server-side. Keeps the endpoint cheap, makes
refresh-resumption trivial (browser owns the truth), and means the
same endpoint can later sit behind a rate-limited anonymous variant
without growing per-session state.
3. **Standalone component subtree.** `<Playground>` has no
`AppShell`/router/store dependencies. All cross-cutting concerns
flow in as props (`chatEndpoint`, `authMode`, `realRunRedirect`).
This is the structural hook that makes future re-embedding possible
without a refactor.
4. **Chat is the only mutation path.** Click-to-inspect on the canvas
is read-only. Bi-directional canvas editing was explicitly cut from
scope to keep one source of truth for "how the workflow changed."
5. **Inline `RunManifest` instead of temp-dir-then-clone.** The
playground has no project to run against, so the `Run for real`
modal builds a `RunManifest` that carries the full DOT and
`workflow.toml` source inline (`workflows[key].{source, config}`).
`cwd` is pinned to a fixed `/tmp/fabro-playground` constant — no
LLM-controlled segment in a filesystem-looking field.
6. **React effects policy compliance.** All `useEffect` calls in
playground component code go through the existing primitives in
`app/hooks/effects.ts` (`useDocumentEvent`, `useInterval`) or a
purpose-named hook (`useCanvasRender`).
## Still outstanding (planned follow-ups)
- [ ] **Actually kicking off the ad-hoc run.** "Run for real" today
POSTs a manifest with a placeholder project/repo/folder
fieldset. The intent is to reuse the project-picker pattern
being introduced on the in-flight automations branch — once
that pattern lands, the disabled inputs in
`run-for-real-modal.tsx` become the live surface.
- [ ] **Header link to `/playground`.** No nav entry yet; users have
to type the URL directly.
- [ ] **Live SSE-driven canvas overlay** via
`GET /api/v1/runs/{id}/attach` — currently the modal redirects
to the standard run-view page; the "watch it build on the
playground canvas" experience comes when the `stage.*` events
are wired through.
- [ ] **Regenerate `lib/packages/fabro-api-client`** so the new types
ship to TS consumers.
- [ ] **Smoke test:** end-to-end download → unzip →
`fabro run <name>` round-trip.
- [ ] **`scripts/build.ts` dist-symlink bug:** `pruneOldBuilds` can
delete the directory `apps/fabro-web/dist` points at, which
pins the dev server in 503 "build in progress" forever.
Workaround documented; the real fix is a separate PR.
## Test plan
- [ ] `cd apps/fabro-web && bun run test app/components/playground/` —
111 tests pass
- [ ] `cd apps/fabro-web && bun run typecheck` — clean
- [ ] `cargo test -p fabro-server playground` — 6 tests pass
- [ ] Visit `/playground`; the canvas renders the welcome `start → ??? →
exit` ghost.
- [ ] Type "build me a release-notes workflow" in chat; nodes/edges
animate in; ack reads `Wrote workflow.fabro (N nodes, M edges)`.
- [ ] Click a node → inspector panel populates; click empty canvas →
deselects.
- [ ] Click `Simulate`; nodes light up `start → ... → exit` along the
resolved path.
- [ ] Click `Download .fabro`; unzip; `cd <unzipped> && fabro run
<name>` runs locally.
- [ ] Click `Run for real` → modal opens → confirm → POST succeeds →
redirected to `/runs/{id}` → run executes.
- [ ] Refresh the page; the draft persists from localStorage.
- [ ] Click `Start over` → `Yes`; canvas resets to welcome state.
