Single Go module, four top-level packages under packages/. Import
paths become github.com/patriceckhart/zot/packages/<name>; downstream
consumers can depend on individual packages without pulling the rest.
Layout:
packages/provider/ LLM clients + catalog
packages/provider/auth/ credential store + OAuth + login server
packages/core/ agent loop, sessions, cost
packages/tui/ terminal toolkit + chat view
packages/agent/ CLI wiring, system prompt
extensions/ extproto/ modes/ tools/ skills/ swarm/
sdk/ (was pkg/zotcore, package renamed zotcore -> sdk)
ext/ (was pkg/zotext, package renamed zotext -> ext)
internal/ and pkg/ removed. The internal/assets logo moved into
packages/provider/auth/assets.
Public Go SDK identifiers renamed:
pkg/zotcore (package zotcore) -> packages/agent/sdk (package sdk)
pkg/zotext (package zotext) -> packages/agent/ext (package ext)
This breaks Go-based extensions and embedders; the JSON wire protocol
for extensions and RPC is unchanged, so non-Go extensions, already-
built extension binaries, and zot rpc consumers are unaffected.
Docs, examples, and the built-in write-zot-extension skill updated
for the new paths and identifiers. Shadow-bug fixes in code samples
(ext := ext.New -> e := ext.New).
two new ways to embed the zot agent runtime in third-party apps:
1. pkg/zotcore - public Go SDK
- Runtime type: New(Config), Prompt(ctx,text,imgs)->chan Event,
Cancel, Compact, SetModel, State, Messages, Cost, ListModels,
Close. Concurrent-safe; one prompt at a time per Runtime,
ErrBusy if you try to overlap. Spawn multiple Runtimes for
multiple projects.
- Public types mirror the JSON-RPC wire schema 1:1 so consumers
can share parsing code with the out-of-process clients.
- Internal core/agent/provider stay internal; SDK is a thin
facade that exposes only what's stable.
2. zot rpc subcommand - newline-delimited JSON on stdin/stdout
- 'zot rpc' (or 'zot --rpc') turns the agent runtime into a
subprocess that any language can drive via pipes.
- Commands: hello, prompt, abort, compact, get_state,
get_messages, clear, set_model, get_models, ping. Each
optionally carries an id; the matching response echoes it.
- Stream notifications: turn_start, user_message,
assistant_start, text_delta, tool_call, tool_progress,
tool_result, assistant_message, usage, turn_end, done,
error, compact_done. Same shape as the existing --json mode
events (modes.EventToJSON / ContentToJSON were exported
for reuse).
- Auth: optional ZOTCORE_RPC_TOKEN env var; first command
must be hello {token: ...} when set. Without the env var
the spawning process is implicitly trusted.
- Concurrency: one prompt or compact at a time per process,
enforced by a turnMu mutex. abort fires immediately
regardless. Stdin close exits the process.

4. examples/rpc/{python,node,shell,go} - reference clients
5. examples/sdk - in-process Go embedding example
6. README updated with a new modes entry and an embedding section
