Five rounds of sweep across the tree. Net ~544 lines removed.
Removed:
- Section-divider banners and one-line section labels (# Display
utilities, # ----- list_requests -----, # CVSS breakdown, etc.).
- Module-level prose docstrings on internal modules. Kept one-line
summaries; trimmed multi-paragraph narration about SDK/Strix
responsibility splits, cache strategies, three-source precedence.
- Internal-helper docstrings that just restate the function name —
caido_api helpers (caido_url, get_client, view_request, etc.),
settings-class one-liners (LLMSettings, RuntimeSettings, ...),
UI helper docstrings.
- Args/Returns blocks on non-LLM-facing internal helpers
(build_strix_agent, render_system_prompt, create_or_reuse,
bootstrap_caido) — kept only the genuinely non-obvious params.
- Internal-history phrasing — "Mirrors main-branch shape",
"pre-SDK harness", "previous lookup matched no attribute".
- Narrative comments inside function bodies that explained what the
next line does, design rationale obvious from the surrounding code,
or "we used to..." asides.
- Trailing periods on every error-string literal across the tool tree.
- Duplicated roundtripTime quirk comment (kept the LLM-facing copy in
tools/proxy/tools.py).
Kept (every one names an upstream bug, vendored-code provenance, or
non-obvious data quirk):
- core/runner.py: SDK replay-with-empty-initial-input + on_agent_end
lifecycle gap.
- runtime/docker_client.py: VERBATIM COPY block of the upstream
_create_container body, pinned to SDK v0.14.6.
- runtime/session_manager.py: NO_PROXY for agent-browser CDP loopback.
- tools/proxy/caido_api.py: generated-pydantic Request.raw quirk,
replay double-history pitfall.
- tools/proxy/tools.py: Caido roundtripTime=0 quirk for proxy
captures.

Two fixes that surfaced from a single broken run.
(1) Source mounting was double-broken:
- ``session_manager.create_or_reuse`` mounted the *parent* of the first
local source under a hardcoded ``"sources"`` key, so the host's
unrelated content leaked in at ``/workspace/sources/...`` while the
agent's task prompt advertised ``/workspace/<workspace_subdir>``
(from ``_build_root_task``). Result: the agent looked at
``/workspace/empty/`` (per the prompt), found nothing, and bailed.
- ``backends._docker_backend`` never called ``await session.start()``
after ``client.create()`` — the SDK's manifest application
(``LocalDir`` materialization, mount setup) only runs inside
``start()`` (or ``async with session:``). So even with the right
``entries`` the workspace would have been empty anyway.
Fix: thread ``args.local_sources`` (already populated by
``collect_local_sources``) all the way through to the session manager,
build ``Manifest.entries`` keyed by each source's ``workspace_subdir``,
and call ``session.start()`` in the docker backend so the SDK actually
materializes the entries. Drop the now-unused ``_resolve_sources_path``
helpers from ``cli.py`` and ``tui.py``.
(2) Scan-failure visibility was nonexistent in TUI mode:
- The SDK's ``on_agent_end`` hook only fires after the agent reaches its
first turn. A failure earlier (model routing, sandbox bring-up, …)
left the root agent stuck at ``status=running`` in the bus and
tracer, so the TUI animated "Initializing" forever.
- ``scan_target`` in ``tui.py`` caught the exception and called
``logging.exception`` but never propagated it. ``run_tui`` returned
cleanly when the user finally ctrl-q'd, so ``main.py`` happily
printed the success-completion banner over a dead scan.
Fix: in ``run_strix_scan``'s ``except BaseException`` block, finalize
the root agent as ``"failed"`` in both the bus and the tracer (with the
error message attached). Capture the exception on
``StrixTUIApp._scan_error`` from the scan thread; ``run_tui`` re-raises
it after ``app.run_async()`` returns so ``main.py``'s existing handler
prints the traceback. Add a ``"failed"`` branch to
``_get_status_display_content`` that shows the error message in red,
mirroring the existing ``llm_failed`` branch.

Picks up the recent in-image deps (``pip install caido-sdk-client``
for ``python_action`` + Caido CLI bumped to v0.56.0). 0.2.0 is the
new minor since this is the first SDK-migration-era image; users
pulling the new strix should pull the matching new image.
Updated:
- ``strix/config/settings.py:64`` — ``RuntimeSettings.image`` default
- ``strix/runtime/session_manager.py`` + ``strix/orchestration/scan.py`` — docstring example
- ``HARNESS_WIKI.md`` — three references in the runtime + config docs
- ``MIGRATION_EVALUATION.md`` — the SDK-bridging note
The historical changelog row (``HARNESS_WIKI.md:744`` — "bump to
0.1.13") stays untouched on purpose; it records what commit
``640bd67`` did, not the current pin.

Every scan now writes a complete log file at ``{run_dir}/strix.log``
captured from the moment ``run_dir`` is resolved through teardown.
Stdlib ``logging`` only — no parallel framework.
New ``strix/telemetry/logging.py``:
* ``setup_scan_logging(run_dir, debug=)`` attaches a ``FileHandler``
(DEBUG, all ``strix.*``) plus a ``StreamHandler`` (ERROR by
default; DEBUG via ``STRIX_DEBUG=1``).
* ``ContextVar``-backed ``scan_id`` and ``agent_id`` injected by a
``Filter`` so every line is auto-tagged across asyncio tasks
without callers passing them explicitly.
* Third-party noise (``httpx``, ``litellm``, ``openai``,
``anthropic``, ``urllib3``, ``httpcore``) capped at WARNING.
* Returns a teardown handle for ``finally`` cleanup.
Wiring:
* ``orchestration/scan.py`` calls ``setup_scan_logging`` once per
scan after ``run_dir`` resolves; sets scan_id; tears down in
``finally``. Adds INFO logs for sandbox bring-up + scan
start/end.
* ``orchestration/hooks.py`` sets/clears ``agent_id`` ContextVar in
``on_agent_start`` / ``on_agent_end`` and emits INFO for agent
lifecycle, DEBUG for every tool start/end and LLM call.
* ``interface/main.py`` drops the ``setLevel(ERROR)`` silencer.
Coverage expanded across ~20 files (orchestration, agents, runtime,
llm, tools, interface, config, skills) with INFO for lifecycle and
DEBUG for verbose detail. Per the system instructions in
``logger.warning(f"…{e}")`` were converted to module logger calls.

Replaces 200+ lines of bespoke env-loader / persist / change-detection
machinery with ``pydantic_settings.BaseSettings`` (already a transitive
of ``openai-agents → mcp``, no new direct dep).
What was wrong with ``Config``:
- 14 knobs flat in one namespace, weak grouping by comment-block.
- ``Config._applied_from_default`` and ``Config._config_file_override``
were externally mutated from ``interface/main.py:532-534``. Private
members were part of the public contract.
- Stringly-typed values: every caller had to coerce
(``int(Config.get("llm_timeout") or "300")``,
``... not in {"0", "false", "no", "off"}``).
- Dead knob: ``strix_llm_max_retries`` declared, persisted, listed in
``_LLM_CANONICAL_NAMES`` — zero readers (``DEFAULT_RETRY``
hardcodes ``max_retries=5``). Dropped.
- ``_LLM_CANONICAL_NAMES`` tuple maintained alongside class vars —
duplicate source of truth.
- ``_tracked_names()`` introspected ``vars(cls).items()`` filtered on
``(v is None or isinstance(v, str))`` — fragile.
- Awkward path: ``strix/config/config.py`` inside ``strix/config/``
with ``__init__.py`` just re-exporting.
- Dual access for the same fact: ``web_search`` read
``os.getenv("PERPLEXITY_API_KEY")`` while ``main.py`` read
``Config.get("perplexity_api_key")``.
New shape:
- ``strix/config/settings.py`` — typed dataclass tree:
``Settings.{llm,runtime,telemetry,integrations}``. Each sub-model is
its own ``BaseSettings`` so it reads env independently. Field-level
``alias=`` and ``validation_alias=AliasChoices(...)`` mirror the
existing flat env-var names — user-facing env contract is unchanged.
Bool fields auto-parse ``"0"``/``"false"``/``"no"``/``"off"``;
int fields auto-coerce.
- ``strix/config/loader.py`` — thin ``load_settings()``,
``apply_config_override(path)``, ``persist_current()`` with module
cache. JSON file reader walks aliases to populate sub-models, dropping
entries already covered by env (so env still wins).
- 13 callsites migrated from ``Config.get("...")`` to
``load_settings().<group>.<field>``.
- ``posthog._is_enabled()`` collapses to one line.
- ``--config <path>`` flow simplified: one
``apply_config_override(...)`` call replaces three lines of
class-private mutation.
Drive-by — drop ``is_whitebox`` from ``scan_config`` dict:
- It was being derived as ``bool(args.local_sources)`` in three places
(``cli.py``, ``tui.py``, ``main.py``) and stuffed into the dict for
``entry.py`` to read back. The fact is fully derivable from
``scan_config["targets"]`` — any target with ``type == "local_code"``.
- New helper ``is_whitebox_scan(targets)`` in ``interface/utils.py``
alongside the other target-classification utilities.
- ``entry.py`` computes once; ``main.py``'s posthog start uses the same
helper. Triplicate derivation gone.
Verified: ruff at baseline (3), mypy at baseline (69). Six smoke tests
pass — defaults / JSON-only / env-wins-over-JSON / alias-chain
fallback / bool parsing / ``is_whitebox_scan``.

Dockerfile carried forward three pieces of dead state from the
pre-migration era:
- ``/app/runtime`` and ``/app/tools`` mkdir entries — the FastAPI
sidecar + in-container tool registry that those dirs hosted are
gone.
- ``/home/pentester/{configs,wordlists,output,scripts}`` — empty
placeholders never populated by anything; greps for them in the
whole repo come back empty.
- ~20 explicit Chrome/Playwright runtime libs (``libnss3``,
``libnspr4``, ``libatk*``, ``libxcomposite1``, …) plus emoji /
freefont packages. These were Playwright deps; the migration to
``agent-browser`` runs ``agent-browser install --with-deps`` which
owns this list authoritatively. Keep ``libnss3-tools`` for
``certutil`` in the entrypoint's CA-trust step.
Drive-by bug fix: ``NO_PROXY=localhost,127.0.0.1`` was set in the
entrypoint (``/etc/profile.d/proxy.sh`` + ``/etc/environment``) but
NOT in the SDK manifest's environment. ``docker exec``-spawned
processes (which ``session.exec`` and the Shell capability use)
inherit only manifest env, so ``agent-browser``'s CDP-localhost
traffic was being looped back through Caido. Add it.

``@strix_tool`` was passing through every kwarg to ``@function_tool``
with the same defaults — zero Strix-specific value-add. The docstring
also still claimed terminal/browser/python tools opted into
``timeout_behavior="raise_exception"``, but those tools were all
deleted in the recent migrations.
- Replace 30 ``@strix_tool(...)`` callsites with ``@function_tool(...)``.
- Inline ``dump_tool_result(x)`` as ``json.dumps(x, ensure_ascii=False,
default=str)`` at all 64 callsites — no helper.
- Delete ``strix/tools/_decorator.py``.
Drive-by: gut dead package re-exports.
- ``strix/{agents,orchestration,tools}/__init__.py`` re-exported
symbols nobody imports via the package — every consumer uses deep
paths (``from strix.agents.factory import build_strix_agent``).
- The 8 ``strix/tools/<sub>/__init__.py`` re-exports only fed the
splat ``from .agents_graph import *`` etc. in the parent package
init, which is also gone now.
- Reduced to docstrings (or empty) so ``import strix.tools`` doesn't
drag every tool's transitive deps in eagerly.
Drive-by: drop dead helpers in ``runtime.session_manager``
(``cached_scan_ids``, ``_reset_cache_for_tests``) — zero callers since
``tests/`` was nuked in ``a6d578c``.
Verified all tool timeouts preserved (think=10, list_requests=120,
finish_scan=60, web_search=330) and ruff/mypy at baseline.

``STRIX_RUNTIME_BACKEND`` was already declared on ``Config`` but never
read — ``session_manager`` hard-coded ``StrixDockerSandboxClient`` plus
``DockerSandboxClientOptions`` plus ``docker.from_env()`` directly into
the call site. Adding a second backend would have meant retrofitting
every Docker-specific import.
Move all of that behind a registry:
- ``strix/runtime/backends.py``: maps backend names to async factories
``(image, manifest, exposed_ports) -> (client, session)``. Ships with
``"docker"``; ``register_backend`` lets downstream users plug in
Daytona / K8s / Modal / etc. without forking.
- Each backend's deps are imported lazily inside its factory, so a
K8s-only deployment doesn't need ``docker-py`` installed (and
vice-versa).
- ``session_manager`` reads the config name, looks up the backend,
calls it. Zero Docker imports remain.
- Unknown backend name raises ``ValueError`` with the supported list,
so ``STRIX_RUNTIME_BACKEND=docke`` typos surface immediately.

The ``strix`` prefix on a file inside ``strix/runtime/`` was pure
redundancy. Class name ``StrixDockerSandboxClient`` keeps the prefix
since it disambiguates from the upstream SDK class it subclasses.

The split between ``strix/sandbox/`` and ``strix/runtime/`` was
artificial — both were managing the same backend. ``strix/sandbox/``
also collided uncomfortably with the SDK's ``agents.sandbox.*``
namespace. ``runtime/`` (which matches ``STRIX_RUNTIME_BACKEND``) is
the canonical home for everything Docker / Daytona / K8s lifecycle.
While merging, also rip out two pieces of Docker-specific coupling:
- ``caido_bootstrap`` was POSTing ``loginAsGuest`` from the host via
``aiohttp`` to ``http://127.0.0.1:{forwarded_port}``. That assumed
Docker port forwarding; Daytona / K8s expose ports differently.
Now we ``session.exec`` curl from *inside* the container — the
SDK's runtime-agnostic exec primitive — so any backend works as
long as it implements ``exec``. The host-side Caido ``Client``
still uses the runtime's exposed-port URL for post-bootstrap calls,
but that goes through the SDK's own ``resolve_exposed_port``
abstraction (also runtime-agnostic).
- The bootstrap retry loop now doubles as the readiness probe, so
``healthcheck.wait_for_tcp_ready`` (and the entire
``healthcheck.py`` module) goes away.
Drive-by simplification: drop ``caido_host_port`` plumbing entirely.
It was only piped through ``make_agent_context`` → child contexts
without ever being read; only ``caido_client`` is consumed.
Drops ``aiohttp`` runtime dep (it stays only as a transitive of the
Caido SDK).
