CLAWDIE LIVE USB — SEED PARTITION ================================= This FAT32 partition lets you customize the live USB BEFORE flashing or between boots. On every boot, /usr/local/etc/rc.d/clawdie_live_seed imports an allowlisted set of files from this partition. Editing a file and rebooting re-applies it — the importer is idempotent. USAGE FROM LINUX / macOS / WINDOWS ---------------------------------- 1. Flash the image to USB (dd, or write the .img directly). 2. Mount the CLAWDIESEED partition (typically the third partition on the stick, e.g. /dev/sdX3 on Linux): sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdX3 /mnt/clawdie-seed 3. Drop seed files (see the two layers below). 4. Unmount and boot the USB: sync sudo umount /mnt/clawdie-seed LAYER 1 — SIMPLE ALLOWLIST (top level) -------------------------------------- /authorized_keys Public SSH keys for the operator account. Installed to ~clawdie/.ssh/authorized_keys (mode 0600, owner clawdie:clawdie). CRLF line endings are stripped automatically. /ssh/authorized_keys Same as above, in a nested ssh/ namespace. Takes precedence over /authorized_keys. LAYER 2 — PER-AGENT DIRECTORIES ------------------------------- Create one directory per agent. THE DIRECTORY NAME IS THE AGENT NAME. Inside it, any of these are honored: //env Plaintext KEY=VALUE lines. Keys you list replace existing values; keys you omit are preserved. Blank/`#` lines are ignored. Routing for the ACTIVE agent: - Provider API keys and toggles (DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=..., OPENROUTER_API_KEY=..., COLIBRI_AUTOSPAWN_PI=YES, ...) are merged into BOTH the agent's ~/.env AND the daemon's /usr/local/etc/colibri/provider.env (mode 0600). Because the importer runs before the daemon starts, a seeded provider key makes colibri_daemon auto-spawn the agent on first boot with NO operator action — fully zero-touch. No Vaultwarden round-trip needed. - Vaultwarden bootstrap creds (BW_CLIENTID/BW_CLIENTSECRET/BW_PASSWORD) are routed to ~/.config/vault-bootstrap.env for clawdie-vault-fetch — use these only if you want the vault-fetch path instead of direct keys. The Vaultwarden endpoint is baked into the image; do not put it on the seed unless you are deliberately overriding it. //harness.toml Which agent harness to run + basic knobs: harness = "zot" # zot | pi | local model = "claude-opus-4-8" cost_mode = "smart" `harness` must be one of zot, pi, local (Colibri's AgentRuntime). Recorded for the runtime to launch the right harness. //soul/ A layered-soul backup tree (SOUL.md, USER.md, IDENTITY.md, memories/, skills/, ...). Staged under /var/db/clawdie/seed//soul for the agent workspace to load. //ssh/authorized_keys Public SSH keys for this agent. Agent directory names may contain only A-Z a-z 0-9 . _ - (no spaces or slashes). The name `ssh` is reserved for Layer 1. LIVE USB vs DEPLOYED -------------------- The live USB is single-agent: the FIRST agent directory (alphabetical) maps to the clawdie user and becomes the active agent (recorded at /var/db/clawdie/seed/active-agent). Additional agent directories are staged and logged, but a second live identity is NOT provisioned here — multi-agent provisioning is a deployed-host feature. CONSUME-AND-SHRED (optional) ---------------------------- Drop an empty file named `shred` at the seed root to have the importer wipe all `env` files from this partition AFTER importing them, so secrets do not persist on the stick: /shred This needs a writable seed; if the remount fails the env files are left in place and the importer logs it. Off unless you add the marker, per stick. SECURITY — READ THIS -------------------- - This is FAT32: UNENCRYPTED and readable by anyone who plugs the stick into any machine. There is no access control on this partition. - By operator decision, env files here MAY carry secrets (API keys, and the Vaultwarden bootstrap, which includes the master password). That is a deliberate trade-off: treat every seeded stick as SECRET-BEARING MEDIA. Do not lose it; do not lend it; prefer `shred` for one-shot provisioning. - Imported secrets land mode 0600 owned by the agent user. Public SSH keys are not secret and are always safe to place here. - The importer runs at every boot. Removing a file from the seed and rebooting does NOT remove an already-installed copy from the live system; re-flash the image to wipe state. The importer logs to /var/log/clawdie-live-seed.log (`service clawdie_live_seed status` tails it).
