- 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)
