The spawner spawned every agent with stdin(Stdio::null()) and read stdout
only, so it could only host self-driving emitters (pi --mode json). zot's
only structured persistent mode is `zot rpc`, which is a request/response
peer that blocks on stdin — so it could never autospawn. Worse, 0.12.0
defaulted COLIBRI_AUTOSPAWN_BINARY=zot while args defaulted to --mode json,
which is not a zot flag, so the OOTB image would spawn a broken/no agent.
Add a stdin RPC driver:
- AgentSpawnConfig.rpc_stdin: when set, the spawner pipes stdin and keeps the
writer; otherwise stdin stays null (unchanged path for pi).
- cmd_spawn_agent auto-detects rpc mode from argv (`rpc`/`--rpc`).
- AgentHandle gains a cloneable RpcSender (Arc-backed) so prompts can be sent
without holding the agent-registry lock across the async write.
build_rpc_prompt emits zot's wire format: {"id","type":"prompt","message"}.
- Autospawn picks default argv per harness: zot -> `rpc`, pi -> `--mode json`
(corrects the invalid --mode-json-for-zot default), and optionally sends a
one-time bootstrap prompt when COLIBRI_AUTOSPAWN_RPC_PROMPT is set (default
boot spends no tokens). Log strings de-pi-fied (autospawn-pi -> autospawn).
Tests: build_rpc_prompt framing + escaping, rpc_stdin default, sender presence
by mode. Full workspace: 250 tests, 0 failures. Live zot rpc smoke pending
(wire format matches docs/ZOT-RPC-TRANSCRIPT.md real-key capture).
Stacks on the 0.12.0 compile/lock fix (PR #156).

Colibri
The Clawdie control plane core — a small, cross-platform (FreeBSD + Linux) Rust daemon. Developed from an operator USB environment; deploys as the Clawdie service on bare FreeBSD hardware (ZFS RAID1, PostgreSQL + pgvector, bhyve VMs, Bastille jails). Unifies coordination (task board, agent registry, skills catalog) with cache-first cost discipline (byte-stable prompt prefixes, cache-hit metering).
Status: workspace gates are fmt/clippy/test/release green. Round 2 audit is closed. Current priorities: ISO boot/runtime validation, Pi spawn end-to-end, and cost-mode enforcement (see docs/PRIORITY-HANDOFF-ISO-SPAWN-COST.md). Always query live state: see the crate table below and run the gate commands for current counts.
