Four new tools for full journal entry lifecycle management:
- ae_journal_entry_update — PATCH any combination of fields (title,
content, summary, tags, enable); only provided fields are changed
- ae_journal_entry_disable — soft-delete via enable=false
- ae_journal_entry_append — fetch entry, append timestamped section
to the bottom (ideal for running logs / data logs)
- ae_journal_entry_prepend — fetch entry, prepend timestamped section
to the top (most-recent-first pattern)
Shared _get_entry / _patch_entry helpers keep the read-modify-write
logic DRY. Also fixed journal_entry_create to prefer the canonical
journal_entry_id field over the legacy id_random alias.

Lists all Aether Journals for the configured account via
POST /v3/crud/journal/search with no filters (account scoped by header).
Returns name + id_random for each journal so the agent can discover
available journals before searching or writing entries.

- Add shell_exec to orchestrator tool suite (system.py + __init__.py)
Runs arbitrary shell commands on the Cortex host with timeout (1–120s),
combined stdout/stderr output, optional working_dir, and exit code reporting.
Enables system diagnostics (df, ls, ps, journalctl, etc.) from Agent mode.
- Fix orchestrator_engine.run() to use model_name from resolved registry entry
Previously used settings.orchestrator_model (.env hardcode) regardless of
what model was assigned to the orchestrator role. Now accepts model_name param
and falls back to settings value only when registry has no model_name.
- Update ARCH__FUTURE.md: date, running host, local orchestrator status,
model registry V2 progress, added Cortex Mesh concept (section 9)

- openai_orchestrator.py — new ReAct tool loop engine for any
OpenAI-compatible endpoint (OpenRouter, Open WebUI, Ollama, LiteLLM);
model handles both tool loop and final response, no Claude handoff needed
- tools/__init__.py — auto-derive OpenAI JSON Schema from existing Gemini
FunctionDeclarations so tool definitions have a single source of truth
- routers/orchestrator.py — route to openai_orchestrator when model registry
"orchestrator" role resolves to a local_openai type host
- routers/chat.py — pass role to _backend_label(); fix fallback_used logic
(only meaningful for explicit backend overrides, not auto-routing)
- static/app.js — add null/"auto" to backend cycle; fetch local model hint
without overriding the auto default on page load
- model_registry.py — _normalize() back-fills host_type on old registry files
- requirements.txt — add openai>=1.0.0
- ARCH__BACKENDS.md — document OpenAI-compat backend and routing logic

- New cortex/tools/reminders.py with reminders_add, reminders_list, reminders_clear
- reminders_clear moved here from cron.py (cron still imports from same file)
- __init__.py: wired up new callables and Gemini declarations
- Inara can now add/read reminders in Agent mode via the orchestrator

Restructures persona storage from a flat personas/{name}/ layout to
home/{username}/persona/{name}/, mirroring Linux home directories.
Changes:
- persona.py: two ContextVars (user + persona), Linux-style name validation,
set_context(), get_user(), get_persona(), validate(), list_users(),
list_user_personas(); persona_path() takes (username, name)
- config.py: replaces personas_dir with home_dir + home_root()
- git mv personas/inara → home/scott/persona/inara (history preserved)
- home/holly/persona/tina/: Holly's persona stub added
- cron_runner.py: all storage functions take (username, persona) params
- tools/cron.py: stamps user + persona on jobs; APScheduler IDs are
{user}:{persona}:{job_id} to prevent collisions across users
- memory_distiller.py: distill_short/mid/long take (username, persona);
added missing Path + settings imports
- scheduler.py: _load_user_crons() iterates home/*/persona/* (two-level)
- routers/chat.py, orchestrator.py: user field added; set_context() called
- tests/conftest.py: home_root fixture with two-level structure;
patches home_dir instead of personas_dir
- tests/test_persona.py: fully rewritten for two-level API
- tests/test_api_files.py: updated fixture name and path
- .env.default: documents HOME_DIR setting; scrubs stale API key
- CLAUDE.md, README.md: directory maps updated for new layout
All 80 tests pass.

- Add cortex/persona.py: ContextVar-based per-request routing with
path traversal protection and persona validation
- Migrate inara/ → personas/inara/ (git history preserved via git mv)
- config.py: add personas_root(), inara_path() delegates to personas/inara
- All 14 settings.inara_path() call sites replaced with persona_path()
- ChatRequest + OrchestrateRequest: add persona field (default: "inara")
with validation at request entry before any processing
- memory_distiller: add optional persona param for future per-persona distill
- cron_runner/tools/cron: stamp persona on jobs, prefix APScheduler IDs
(persona:job_id) to prevent collisions across personas
- scheduler: _load_user_crons() iterates all personas at startup
Adding a new persona: create personas/<name>/ with IDENTITY.md + SOUL.md.
Auth: handled at nginx level (inject X-Cortex-Persona header per subdomain).
Future: persona maps to Aether account_id_random for full integration.

- Add cortex/tools/scratch.py with scratch_read/write/append/clear tools
- Register all four scratch tools in the orchestrator tool registry
- Create inara/SCRATCH.md as the backing file (never distilled/archived)
- Fix auth.py: expiresAt reflects short-lived access token (~8h) not the
1-year refresh token — suppress expiry warning when refreshToken is present

- Add Agent mode toggle to web UI input row — routes through POST /orchestrate
instead of /chat; polls for result with live tool-call count in thinking bubble
- Add cortex/tools/system.py with claude_allow_dir tool; registers in tool registry
- Fix web search: duckduckgo_search renamed to ddgs, update import + requirements.txt
- Allow WebSearch and WebFetch in ~/.claude/settings.json for Claude CLI fallback
- Add claude-allow-dir script docs and security note to CLAUDE.md
