# Managed OpenChamber Agent Tool ## Purpose This module exposes OpenChamber to agents as typed OpenCode custom tools. There are two, because controlling sessions and driving a page are separate intents the user can want independently: - `openchamber` — projects, sessions, worktrees, and scheduled tasks. Enabled while the persisted `agentControlToolEnabled` setting is not `false`. - `openchamber_web` — looking at and interacting with the page in OpenChamber's browser panel. Enabled while `agentWebToolEnabled` is not `false`. Both default to on, are toggled in Settings → General → OpenCode CLI, and apply on the next managed OpenCode restart. Each tool carries only its own actions and only the parameters those actions use, so turning one off removes its inputs from the schema rather than leaving them visible. The plugin is injected only when OpenChamber launches and owns the OpenCode process, and not at all when both settings are `false`. - The plugin accepts the action's inputs either inside `parameters` or beside `action`, because models produce both shapes; an explicit `parameters` object wins on a conflict. Rejecting the flattened shape turned a call that plainly carried a `url` into "url is required", which reads as a broken tool rather than a malformed call. ## Runtime flow 1. The OpenChamber HTTP listener binds and publishes its authoritative port. 2. `prepareManagedOpenCodeEnv()` materializes the plugin under `/agent-tool/` and appends its `file://` URL to `OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT` without replacing existing plugin entries. 3. A random per-child token and loopback callback URL are added only to the managed OpenCode child environment. 4. The plugin calls `POST /api/openchamber/agent-tool` with its typed input and OpenCode's authoritative session directory. 5. The route delegates the fixed action allowlist directly to the shared OpenChamber control service. The CLI uses the same service through its authenticated HTTP adapter, so Goal Mode ordering, wait behavior, partial-failure reporting, and scheduled-task contracts have one owner. 6. Each action definition owns a short presentation title and a separate agent-facing description. The generated schema uses the description to state required inputs or one non-obvious behavior, while completed calls use the short title in native tool metadata. ## Agent context budget - The tool exposes one shared parameter object rather than repeating parameters in a large per-action union. Action descriptions carry only required inputs, defaults, or one non-obvious semantic detail. - Obvious fields rely on their names and JSON types. Parameter descriptions are reserved for formats, dependencies, scope, and behavior that cannot be safely inferred from the field name. - Session dispatches do not wait by default. Agents are told to set `wait` only when the user asks or the next step requires the completed result. - The tool exposes only agent-relevant actions (`OPENCHAMBER_AGENT_TOOL_ACTIONS`): `schedule.status` stays CLI-only because `schedule.list` already returns scheduler status, and enable/disable are one `schedule.toggle` action driven by the `disabled` boolean. - The tool description frames intent: created sessions and scheduled tasks are user-facing work the user follows up with, never a channel for the agent to delegate parts of its own current task. - Optional behavior switches (`worktree`, `goal`, `agent`, `variant`, `wait`) state their default and an explicit "only when the user asks" rule so agents do not invent worktrees, goal mode, or waits the user never requested. - Detailed combination rules are enforced by the shared control service and returned as actionable usage errors only after an invalid call. Per-action examples and a repeated per-action parameter schema are intentionally omitted. ## Security invariants - The callback accepts loopback requests only and requires the current per-child bearer token using a timing-safe comparison. - The token is never persisted, logged, returned to the UI, or written into the materialized plugin. - Inputs map to a fixed action and parameter allowlist. There is no arbitrary CLI, shell, route, or URL forwarding. - Session/worktree deletion and project-path registration are not exposed. - An aborted tool request propagates an abort signal into the shared service. ## Result contract Every completed call returns JSON: ```json { "schemaVersion": 1, "ok": true, "action": "session.create", "data": {} } ``` Command and operational failures use the same envelope with `ok: false` and an `error` object. OpenCode-level cancellation can still produce a native tool error state. ## Runtime parity - Web and Desktop managed OpenCode: injected automatically. - External OpenCode selected with `OPENCODE_HOST` or skip-start: not injected, because OpenChamber does not control that process environment. - VS Code: not injected; the extension owns a separate OpenCode lifecycle. - Hosted and Capacitor mobile clients use the server's managed OpenCode tool when connected to such a server; no tool runs in the client runtime. ## The calling tool is part of the request Each generated tool sends its own name with every callback. Models routinely drop the namespace their tool's name appears to supply — `openchamber_memory` asked for `memory.read` gets called as `read` — and resolving the bare name inside the calling tool's action set makes that unambiguous even where it is not globally (`delete` belongs to both schedule and memory). Resolution never reaches outside the tool that asked: `open` from the memory tool fails rather than driving the browser. An unresolvable action answers with the actions that tool actually has, because an error that only says "unsupported" leaves the model to guess a second wrong name — which is exactly what happened before this existed.
