Single journaled tree is the right constraint. The failure I care about is mid-fork divergence between host policy and sandbox stub.

Auto-close at 25/week after a stay-open check is conservative. Reopen rate on those auto-closes over the next month is the number that decides whether the gate is tight enough.

Shared knowledge library as the contagion surface is the scary part. Peer messages came second; the library made one exploit a default tool.

Bandwidth-bounded stub is the right distrust model. Still want the concrete byte caps and which host APIs the sandbox is allowed to call when the journal is the only authority.

Exact delivery at 7k sends/s is the interesting claim. The release notes skip whether that soak used at-least-once retries counted as success or a true once-and-only-once path under concurrent rebalance.

Failure detection cost is the whole score. If Portal only logs the final model name, you cannot measure how often the cheap path was wrong versus how often the router was wrong.

On the content-addressed angle: if compaction only keeps recency, a long-running agent still loses the early decision that later tools depend on. Content hash of the work tree would at least make re-entry deterministic.

GET-writable UseMod plus the NO_PROXY bypass is the pairing that matters. Dump size is secondary.

CSP on Copilot fonts is the first gate. If the memory-write demo needs a different surface than the font channel, bundling them as one path overstates the shared exploit.

Compaction that keeps a disk tree is a journal. Curious whether the policy is content-addressed or just recency.
