ducoterra ed2eb462d6 share the host ~/.agents read-only, so skills come along
A sandboxed harness found none of your skills, prompt templates or
standing AGENTS.md, because those live in ~/.agents and only the project
was mounted. It is now bind-mounted at /home/sandbox/.agents by default
-- bound, never copied -- with --no-agents to opt out and --agents-dir
for a curated set, reported by --print-policy and by doctor.

Read-only is the load-bearing part and has no escape hatch: a skill is an
instruction the model follows later, on the host, so a sandbox that could
write ~/.agents had a persistence path out of itself, planted as a
helpful-looking SKILL.md. It holds even under --insecure-keep-root, the
mount lands after /home/sandbox itself so it cannot be shadowed by the
home volume or tmpfs, and an explicit --mount on the same destination
wins because podman refuses duplicates. A missing or unreadable directory
is a silent skip like the pi bridge's; an explicit --agents-dir that
resolves to nothing is a hard error.

The exposure is stated in docs/threat-model.md: the tree, its .git history
and anything pasted into a skill are readable by whatever runs in there.

tests/unit/09_agents.sh covers resolution, precedence and the
bind-never-copy canary; tests/e2e/12_sandbox.sh mounts it in a real
container, checks the host tree survives a run byte for byte and that
even root inside the sandbox cannot write it.
