is_npm_package_installed() was running 'npx --yes camoufox-browser@0.1.0 --version'
which actually LOADS the package code. If we've removed the bundled
camoufox-js@0.9.3, this fails with 'Cannot open database' error, making
the check return false and triggering a re-install.
Fix: check for daemon.js on disk via npm root -g instead.
Also: install_npm_package() now removes the bundled camoufox-js after
install so the daemon always resolves to the global v0.11.0.
install_binary() now:
1. Automatically picks best location per platform:
- macOS: ~/.cargo/bin/ (no sudo, in PATH for Rust users)
- Linux: ~/.cargo/bin/ → /usr/local/bin → ~/.local/bin/
- Windows: /usr/local/bin (Git Bash/MSYS2)
2. Detects if old binary exists at a different PATH location
and warns the user: 'There is ANOTHER gyandoot at ...'
3. Verifies 'command -v gyandoot' resolves correctly after install
4. Shows shell profile instructions if PATH needs updating
Previous issue: always installed to /usr/local/bin with sudo,
overwriting the old binary from install.sh but not warning if
another copy existed elsewhere in PATH.
Root cause: camoufox-browser@0.1.0's CLI wrapper spawns the daemon
with stdio: 'ignore' and only waits 5 seconds. If the daemon crashes
(silent better-sqlite3 native binding error, etc.), the error is
swallowed and we see 'Failed to connect: No such file or directory'.
Fix:
1. find_daemon_js() — locates daemon.js in global node_modules via
'npm root -g' with fallbacks for common nvm/homebrew paths
2. trigger_daemon_start() — spawns daemon.js directly with 'node',
captures stderr to ~/.gyandoot/camoufox-daemon-stderr.log
3. Uses spawn() + std::mem::forget (background daemon) instead of
.output() (which would wait forever since daemon never exits)
4. kill_on_drop(false) — prevents killing daemon when child drops
5. Poll loop in wait_for_socket() still works as before (30s timeout)
Root cause: camoufox-js@0.11.0 fetch can exit 0 but silently fail
to download the browser binary when:
1. A partial/incomplete cache from a previous run exists
2. GitHub API rate-limits the unauthenticated release query
3. Network drops mid-download
Fix:
1. run_fetch() now DELETE incomplete cache (dir exists but no
version.json) before fetching — prevents 'already cached' no-op
2. After fetch, VERIFY version.json exists — if missing, RETRY once
3. After retry, verify Camoufox.app/Contents/MacOS/camoufox exists
4. Log stdout and stderr in INFO traces for debugging
Root cause: On Apple Silicon macOS, the Camoufox browser binary
inherits com.apple.quarantine from npm download. When camoufox-browser
launches it headlessly, Gatekeeper silently kills the process with
SIGKILL (exitCode=null, signal=SIGKILL) before it can run.
Fix:
1. remove_macos_quarantine() — runs 'xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine'
on the Camoufox cache directory after every fetch and on every
subsequent startup (in case cache was from a prior npx run)
2. check_known_errors() — detects 'sigkill' in daemon stderr and
shows the exact fix command to the user
3. Runs quarantine removal in TWO places:
- Immediately after camoufox-js fetch downloads the binary
- Always, even when binary already exists in cache
Root cause on macOS: camoufox-browser@0.1.0 downloads an alpha binary
(v150.0.2-alpha.26) from daijro/camoufox that has a broken macOS build
(missing libmozglue.dylib). Binary crashes with SIGABRT/SIGKILL.
Changes:
1. gyandoot-browser client now supports TWO transports:
- Transport::UnixSocket (existing — daemon IPC)
- Transport::Http (new — Docker REST API on port 9377)
2. init_browser() tries Docker HTTP first, falls back to npx daemon
3. HTTP transport maps browser actions to Docker REST endpoints
(/navigate, /tabs, /health, etc.) with correct userId params
4. check_known_errors() detects libmozglue.dylib + SIGKILL patterns
5. Browser cache check works for both macOS and Linux paths
6. Error messages correctly say 'Use Docker' on corrupted binary
7. Added reqwest dep to gyandoot-agent for Docker health check
Clean build: 0 errors
Root cause on macOS: 'camoufox-browser install' downloaded v150.0.2-alpha.26
instead of the stable browser binary. This alpha version is missing
libmozglue.dylib, causing dyld to crash immediately.
Changes:
1. detect_os() — returns Mac/Linux/Wsl/Windows enum for platform-aware logic
2. check_known_errors() — parses daemon stderr for known failures (missing
libmozglue.dylib on macOS, missing libgtk/libnss on Linux, code-signing)
3. platform_fix_instructions() — returns OS-specific recovery steps:
- macOS: rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/camoufox, reinstall, or Docker fallback
- WSL/Linux: correct apt-get install commands (with t64 package variants)
4. Browser cache detection now checks Camoufox.app on macOS, camoufox on Linux
5. All error messages use detect_os() — no more Linux apt-get on macOS
6. Corrupted download detected automatically, user told to clear cache + retry
Clean build: 0 errors, 0 warnings
- Add is_wsl() detection via /proc/version
- Add example_npx_path() returning platform-appropriate example path
- Replace all hardcoded macOS paths in error messages with dynamic ones
- Add WSL-specific hints: Node.js must be installed inside WSL, not Windows
- WSL hint includes nvm install instructions
- Clean build: 0 errors, 0 warnings
trigger_daemon_start now captures stdout/stderr and exit code instead
of silently redirecting to a log file. On failure it prints the actual
error, making it obvious what went wrong (npm install issue, node
version mismatch, etc.).
Adds [browser].node_path config option so camoufox-browser can use
an explicit npx path (essential for nvm/fnm/asdf users).
Resolution order (cross-platform):
1. config.browser.node_path — explicit user override
2. 'npx.cmd' on Windows, 'npx' on Linux/macOS — PATH lookup
Changes:
- BrowserSection config: added node_path: Option<String>
- AgentConfig: now carries browser section (was dropped in From<GyandootConfig>)
- browser_manager::init_browser(node_path): accepts optional path
- All call sites updated (run(), init_session(), subagents, tests)
- Error messages now hint at browser.node_path config
Two fixes for the TUI:
1. **Raw LLM responses** — was stateless, creating
fresh messages every turn. Added +
methods that accumulate conversation history, inject identity, load
past memory, run browser init, and compress context — identical to
the interactive loop but designed for external callers.
2. **Banner flash** — removed call that fired to stdout
*before* TUI entered alternate screen. TUI already shows the robot
head via as initial chat content.
Also added getter and field to AgentLoop.
1. /quit and /help commands restored:
- /quit: exits the interactive loop
- /help: shows formatted help box with available commands & tips
- Unknown commands get a friendly error pointing to /help
- Slash commands intercepted before LLM processing (no token waste)
2. Zero warnings across entire workspace (13 files fixed):
- Fixed ambiguous glob re-exports in gyandoot-core
- Added #[allow(dead_code)] on intentional dead fields
- Fixed unused imports, variables, and macros
- Fixed unused assignments in subagents
- cleaned up service.rs, profile, kanban warnings
install.sh now produces a completely clean build with zero warnings.
Fixes the cramped terminal output. Two changes:
1. display_output: trailing \n after G> text for spacing
2. read_input: leading \n before » prompt + 30ms delay after spinner clear
to prevent \r overlap with prompt character
Before: G> response...» Hi (no gap, overlapping)
After: G> response...
(blank line)
» Hi (clean, separated)
Three UX improvements for interactive mode:
1. Input prompt: Shows '»' (bold cyan) on stdin before reading user input
2. Output prefix: Agent responses prefixed with 'G>' (bold green)
3. Thinking indicator: Animated spinner on stderr showing 'answering (N.Ns)'
with braille frame characters, auto-clears when response arrives
- Start/stop via tokio::sync::watch channel + tokio::spawn
- Only shows when interactive (atty detection)
- Does not affect gateway/sub-agent modes
Full integration:
- install.sh now installs camoufox-browser via npm (preferred) or Docker
- install.sh creates systemd/launchd auto-start service on Linux/macOS
- New browser_manager.rs — health-check, auto-start, wait-for-ready
- AgentLoop::run() auto-inits Camoufox and registers web_search/web_browse
- System prompt tells LLM to use web_search/web_browse as PRIMARY tools
- Graceful fallback: if Camoufox unavailable, logs warning, uses bash tools
- ToolExecutor is now Arc<Mutex<>> for runtime tool registration
GyanDoot v2 now: install → Camoufox auto-starts → web tools available →
"search NSE India" uses Camoufox with anti-detection 🎯
Three fixes:
1. OllamaProvider now sends tools[] in native /api/chat requests
2. OllamaProvider parses tool_calls from response (OpenAI-compatible
format with function.name, function.arguments)
3. System prompt now lists available tools so LLM knows it can use
bash, curl, read/write files — stops saying "I cannot do that"
- Agent name now falls back to config.name if [identity] section is empty
- Agent role defaults to "AI Assistant built by Gyannetra"
- User name defaults to "the User" if not set
- Removes dependency on identity_setup being completed
- Every session gets identity+memory injected into system prompt
- Added [identity] config section (agent_name, agent_role, user_name,
user_role, setup_complete) to GyandootConfig and AgentConfig
- Agent loop now injects identity into system prompt on startup
- Agent loop injects past verbatim dialogue memory into system prompt
- Added dialogue_append() / dialogue_read() to MemPalace
- Word-by-word, line-by-line verbatim record in dialogue.md
- No compression, no truncation — every message preserved
- Agent loop writes to BOTH daily transcript AND verbatim dialogue
on every turn
- All config paths pass identity through (flat converter, subagents)
