Outcome

Policy commands and their ordinary consumers now await typed OpenShell adapter operations. Policy writes pass a document to the adapter, which owns its private temporary file until the command and cleanup complete. Existing policy semantics and exact command exit codes are preserved.

Reason

Issue #9805 still has synchronous policy consumers and audit-setting commands constructed outside the adapter. This is the first of two scoped PRs; portable lifecycle readers remain assigned to #11479.

Related issues

Refs #9805. Follow-on: #11479.

Changes

  • Make policy reads, inspection, revision reads, and writes asynchronous, and await dependent policy, channel, MCP, onboarding, inventory, and rebuild operations.
  • Move policy-file creation and cleanup into the CLI adapter. Adapter tests cover private permissions, delayed command completion, and cleanup failure.
  • Route the existing audit-log setting through a narrow typed adapter used by logs and exec hints. Settings tests cover gateway selection and failure results.
  • Forward cancellation through the existing child lifecycle so interrupted submissions settle and release their temporary material.
  • Preserve live readback, concurrent-edit handling, SDK configuration export, and exact OpenShell exit statuses. Preserve activation and context-write ordering across asynchronous preparation.
  • Bound applied-policy reads by the channel-status deadline and recheck the registry target after asynchronous delete validation. Deferred-operation tests protect deadline, lock, command completion, and deletion ordering.
  • Run independent inventory and status policy reads concurrently while preserving sandbox order.
  • Use outputLimitBytes as the sole asynchronous capture limit, while translating it back to maxBuffer only at the synchronous adapter boundary.

Verification

  • Exact candidate head: b1e29124e7b0c569dabafcafc99062e21811b84b.
  • Focused adapter and inventory tests: 121 passed across 6 files.
  • Plugin build: passed.
  • CLI type-check: passed with an 8 GB Node heap.
  • npm run validate:pr passed formatting, lint, type-aware lint, repository checks, secret scanning, E2E semantic plans, source-shape budgets, and code-growth guardrails. Its only failure is a body line over 100 characters in already-published merge commit 42bd21686256784dc925fc75c4e78bcf515a67b5; correcting that would require a history rewrite and force-push.
  • Current canonical main 95b2eee9c46e9a9c5655f5fc760bc7c3fa135742 merges cleanly in a read-only merge-tree check. Main was not merged because there is no conflict.
  • Full CI passed on 42bd21686256784dc925fc75c4e78bcf515a67b5 after the classified transient launch-agent timing retry. Exact-head CI for b1e29124e7b0c569dabafcafc99062e21811b84b is pending.
  • npm run review:local remains unavailable because the local review provider budget is exhausted. No local specialist result is claimed.
  • The reviewed diff contains no secrets, API keys, or credentials.

Review notes

The complete current CodeRabbit review 5181706781 and all earlier unresolved threads were read and verified against the code.

  • The pending-action command test already exists at the committed head and passed exact-head CI.
  • b1e29124e7b0c569dabafcafc99062e21811b84b repairs the valid inventory-concurrency and asynchronous output-limit findings with focused regression tests.
  • 2256f99829d685d56d0c74ffb82695d8902f89cd corrects the asynchronous onboarding helper contract.
  • The private export-shape assertion was removed instead of expanding this PR with another redundant onboarding migration test. The removed helper no longer exists, and the public typed-provider onboarding paths were already exercised and accepted in refactor(onboard): route provider consumers through adapter #11234.

The PR is non-draft and implementation-complete. Exact-head CI and automated review are now in progress. Human approval is still required before merge.

37-40: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use asynchronous test doubles to prove the migration contract.

The synchronous test doubles let these tests pass when an implementation omits a required await.

  • src/lib/onboard/policy-preset-sync-finality.test.ts#L37-L40: return a rejected promise for the rejected-policy case.
  • src/lib/onboard/policy-preset-sync-finality.test.ts#L51-L54: return a rejected promise for the unconfirmed-result case.
  • src/lib/onboard/policy-resume-selection.test.ts#L25-L28: return promises from all migrated policy-read methods.
  • src/lib/onboard/policy-selection-application.test.ts#L91-L92: use deferred promises to prove lock and phase ordering.

As per path instructions, tests must prove that public entrypoints reach the new path.

2801-2818: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Preset sources are now built eagerly instead of lazily.

inspectGatewayPresetNames receives sources: () => sources, but the array is now filled before the call. When the effective policy fails to parse, readParsedPolicy returns early and the previous lazy callback loaded no preset content. The loop at Lines 2808-2813 now always loads every preset. The returned value is unchanged, so this is a wasted-work concern only. Consider building the list after the parse succeeds, or keeping the loading inside the callback with an async-aware shape.

Inline comments:
In `@src/commands/sandbox/policy/list.ts`:
- Line 23: Add a pending-action test for SandboxPolicyListCommand.run that uses
a deferred or otherwise unresolved listSandboxPolicies mock, asserts run remains
pending before resolving the action, then resolves the action and verifies run
completes. Extend the existing oclif-command-adapters test while preserving the
current call assertion.

In `@src/lib/actions/sandbox/channel-status.ts`:
- Line 60: Update the status report builders that await getAppliedPresets so
asynchronous reads are bounded by the same status deadline; use a deadline-aware
dependency or remaining-time timeout and ensure an unresolved read still
produces the timeout report instead of leaving channels status pending.

In `@src/lib/actions/sandbox/policy-channel-list.test.ts`:
- Line 55: Update the test fixtures to model asynchronous outcomes: in
src/lib/actions/sandbox/policy-channel-list.test.ts lines 55-55, use resolved
promises for listCustomPresets and getGatewayPresets; in
src/lib/actions/sandbox/policy-channel-refresh.test.ts lines 310-310 and
362-362, use mockResolvedValue(false) for applyPresetMock and removePresetMock;
and at lines 324-324 and 374-374, use rejected promises with Error instances.
Preserve the behavioral assertions while ensuring tests require Promise
completion and rejection handling.

In `@src/lib/actions/sandbox/rebuild-destroy-phase.ts`:
- Line 420: In the rebuild delete flow, re-run
rebuildDeleteTargetMatchesRegistry(deleteTarget) immediately after await
validateAtDeleteEdge(rebuildMcpRuntimeSelection) and before beginDelete() or
runOpenshell; on failure, preserve the existing MCP recovery path and prevent
deletion. Add a focused test that changes the registry mapping while validation
is paused and verifies no delete command executes.

In `@src/lib/actions/sandbox/rebuild-resume-snapshot.test.ts`:
- Line 56: Update the async reader mocks in policyBoundaryMocks, specifically
readSandboxPolicy and inspectSandboxPolicy, to return promises via
mockResolvedValue or async implementations. Ensure the migration test exercises
the public replacement path and verifies the superseded synchronous path cannot
execute.

In `@src/lib/adapters/openshell/sandbox-policy-cli.ts`:
- Around line 313-327: Update the cleanup flow around the deps.capture
try/finally and the temporary policy directory removal so a cleanup failure is
thrown only when capture completed successfully; when capture already failed,
preserve and rethrow the original capture error while attaching the cleanup
failure as its cause. Keep the retained-policy rule and existing cleanup reason
detection intact, and resolve the noUnsafeFinally issue without changing
successful cleanup behavior.

In `@src/lib/inventory/index.ts`:
- Line 350: Update the sandbox row-building flow around buildSandboxInventoryRow
so independent row operations run concurrently instead of awaiting each row
sequentially. Use an order-preserving concurrent mapper such as Promise.all, or
an equivalent bounded approach, while preserving the existing output order and
row-building behavior.

In `@test/onboarding/onboard-readiness.test.ts`:
- Around line 164-167: Update the parameterized invalid-name assertions in the
onboarding readiness test to await both asynchronous rejection checks; replace
the async forEach pattern with a sequential for...of loop or an awaited
Promise.all, preserving coverage for both names and the existing rejection
expectation.

Add a command-level pending-action test.

oclif-command-adapters.test.ts only checks that listSandboxPolicies("alpha") is called. Its vi.fn() mock does not remain pending, so the test would pass if SandboxPolicyListCommand.run() stopped awaiting the action. Keep the action pending and assert that run() resolves only after the action resolves.

@coderabbitai review

The repair commit addresses the missing asynchronous package-test calls, command completion, Promise-based test doubles, status deadline, post-validation delete-target check, and combined capture/cleanup failure. It also restores the legacy runner’s unbounded maxBuffer behavior while keeping the new policy capture explicitly bounded. Focused tests, package contracts, and CLI type-check passed; publication validation is recorded in the PR description.

Two findings do not require changes in this slice:

  • Inventory concurrency (3984078676): the base used synchronous .map with synchronous policy reads, so it already accumulated per-sandbox latency. Sequential awaiting preserves that behavior and ordering. Parallelizing resource access is outside this behavior-preserving refactor.
  • Eager loading after malformed policy (5563f1179f7e4b6c7577bae6): the production typed reader calls parseOpenShellSandboxPolicyRead and parseOpenShellPolicy, which reject invalid YAML and non-mappings before getGatewayPresets constructs preset sources. No extra parsing mechanism is needed for the proposed invalid-document case.

The local Advisor remains unavailable because the Docker socket is absent. The GitHub Advisor must evaluate the repaired candidate after CI passes.

@coderabbitai review

The package regression now calls compiled production getGatewayPresets through an async capture fixture installed before module loading. It no longer duplicates the matching algorithm, and its custom-policy fixture uses the current durable-policy namespace.

For comment3984325080, retaining maxBuffer on the legacy async client is deliberate compatibility: the base explicitly tests that this option does not limit its output. The new policy capture uses explicit outputLimitBytes and has bounded-output coverage. Removing the option and changing all status callers would broaden this behavior-preserving slice.

Integrated canonical main to consume merged formatting correction #11492. The failed static check was reproduced on CI merge0780d91be in two files byte-identical to its base. All twelve CLI shards and package/build checks passed for prior candidate0e3587b20c. Advisor34540987698 skipped before scheduling specialists because that static check failed. Fresh evaluation is required for this update.

@coderabbitai review

All nine complete Advisor writeups from run34543621313 were reviewed. The two valid findings are repaired in this update:

  • Cancellation: the new resolved async capture now supplies the process signal source to the existing child lifecycle. SIGINT and SIGTERM settle the child capture, let the policy writer remove its temporary directory, and release the listeners. Both runtime tests fail without the signal wiring and pass with it.
  • Malformed documents: a writer regression verifies rejection before either capture or temporary-directory creation.

The remaining seven specialists reported no defect. This update also integrates the canonical validation-helper dependency. Focused adapter/client tests and type-check results are recorded in the description. Existing compatibility and sequential-inventory dispositions remain unchanged. Fresh CI and independent review are required for this update.

Applied the approved two-test repair for the inherited HOME-fence failure from #11490. Both provider test files now acquire the existing fence before direct stopSandbox calls; all 96 tests pass. Required canonical dependencies are integrated. All 58 adapter tests and 85 status/readiness tests pass, and CLI type-check passes with an 8 GB Node heap.

The earlier live network-policy run failed during SDK config export before policy probes; cleanup passed. Fresh focused validation and an exact-base comparison if needed remain pending. The inherited inventory concurrency suggestion remains outside the accepted behavior-preserving scope.

## Outcome

Fresh onboarding with one registered external component and explicit
providerless selection reaches the existing activation lifecycle instead
of failing with `lifecycle_unsupported`. Completion requires verified
immutable sandbox identity and effective policy, successful bounded
activation, and post-response reverification. Ordinary onboarding,
ordinary component onboarding, and providerless onboarding without
registration retain their existing selection paths.

## Reason

Removing the combination guard alone would let the providerless core
flow complete before activation. The final flow also assumed a
provider/model selection and ordinary agent and policy setup. Live
qualification exposed an additional mismatch: OpenShell returns a bare
SHA-256 policy digest, while the activation proof expected its `sha256:`
representation.

### Related issues

Fixes #11486. Extends #11366 under #11340 and follows the [accepted
scope
decision](#11486 (comment)).

## Changes

- Route the explicitly selected combination through the existing state
machine and finalizer. Skip ordinary provider, agent, and policy setup
for this combination only; registration alone does not select it.
- Retain declaration validation before gateway effects, NemoClaw's
gateway ownership, and OpenShell's authority over identity, policy, and
provider resolution. NemoClaw supplies no initial policy, creates no
providers, and handles no component credentials in this flow.
- Preserve existing activation deadlines, fail-closed behavior,
post-response verification, and identity-bound incomplete-state
evidence. Normalize a valid OpenShell SHA-256 digest without changing
the activation message format or accepting malformed digests.
- Extend existing fixtures with explicit success and failure cases, and
update the owning component-registration and command documentation. Keep
#11375 documentation-only and #11453's declarative onboarding separate.
No new provider APIs, hooks, service management, retry, recovery, or
lifecycle interface.

## Verification

- Implementation validation covered component registration, activation,
proof, flow handoffs, sandbox identity, providerless plans, and gateway
configuration: 270 tests passed across 15 files. After the digest
repair, `npx vitest run --project cli src/lib/onboard/external-component
src/lib/onboard/machine/final-flow-phases.test.ts
src/lib/onboard/machine/handlers/finalization.test.ts --coverage=false`
passed all 110 affected tests. The subsequent test-only repair is
verified below.
- `npx vitest run --project cli
src/lib/onboard/machine/final-flow-phases.test.ts
src/lib/onboard/machine/flow-handoff.test.ts --coverage=false` — 34
tests passed after splitting conditional assertions into explicit cases.
- `npx vitest run --project integration
test/onboarding/onboard-fsm-live-slices.test.ts --testTimeout=60000
--coverage=false` — 18 passed. The default-timeout run timed out in two
unchanged subprocess cases; the changed case passed.
- `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=8192 npm run typecheck:cli`, `npm
run build:cli`, changed-file Oxlint, `npm run checks:repository`, and
`git diff --check` — passed during implementation.
- `npm run docs` — zero errors, five Fern warnings. The combined-flow
procedure is present only in the OpenClaw variant; the other generated
variants were checked.
- Real OpenShell 0.0.106 boundary test in disposable Linux: a generic
component supplied sandbox policy through the existing interceptor
contract, the sandbox reached Ready, and one real activation completed
after three identity/policy observations. No caller policy or providers
were supplied. OpenShell rejected a separate unresolved-provider
request. This test used a registry fixture bound to the real sandbox ID;
it was not full NemoClaw onboarding. All disposable containers and
sandboxes were removed.
- Full combined NemoClaw onboarding remains unvalidated: the managed
gateway started, but the sandbox image build exhausted disposable Docker
disk space before activation. No image or security check was bypassed.
- `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=8192 npm run validate:pr` — passed
for candidate `aa79ad4a8fe4a1e059dac81f3d4ec77bdcab14da` against
canonical base `1279b2f1b35790b767ff8252d9fa6e969d5f7d0f`; validation
sources and resolved executables were checked against the canonical
checkout and a fresh locked dependency install.
- Normal pre-commit and commit-message checks passed. The guarded push
also passed CLI, plugin, and checked-JavaScript TypeScript hooks. GitHub
reports the single published commit as Verified.
- The reviewed diff contains no secrets, API keys, or credentials.

## Review notes

Draft for independent review and completion of full combined onboarding
validation. No approval or CI waiver is claimed.

The implementation and publication self-review inspected NVIDIA/NemoClaw
candidate `aa79ad4a8fe4a1e059dac81f3d4ec77bdcab14da`, including the
sensitive paths under `src/lib/onboard/**`, against the accepted scope
and failure-state requirements. The review found no additional scope
change after the test repair. No independent pre-publication review has
been performed; these sensitive paths await independent review.

Open #11483 also changes the existing proof/activation owners and needs
integration coordination. Its code was not imported here.

Resolved the merge conflict with main by retaining its new policy-digest tests and awaiting asynchronous proof creation, revalidation, and rejection. Focused compatibility tests and CLI type-check passed.

All nine full Advisor writeups on3200 were reviewed with no code finding; CodeRabbit also finished. The inventory concurrency advisory remains outside the accepted scope.

The exact-base diagnostic reproduces the same SDK inventory export failure as the head run, before policy probes. Both default-policy scenarios and all cleanup passed. The base diagnostic used a newer trusted workflow under the explicitly approved exception; this is not a controlled same-workflow comparison. No unrelated export fix is included.

Run legacy credential cleanup before the providerless transition.

The onboarding entry point stages legacy credentials before finalization. On resume, it restores migrated keys from persisted hashes. Therefore, providerless finalization can receive staged keys that all migrated. This return bypasses removeLegacyCredentialsFile() and cleanupStaleHostFiles(), leaving the legacy credentials file after successful activation. Keep setDefaultSandbox() skipped, but run both cleanup operations before advancing to post_verify.

Reviewed all nine complete Advisor writeups from run34606293827 and CodeRabbit review5179380817 for af08039.

  • The messaging applier finding assumes a production caller supplies the migrated applyPresets. Repository search finds only four test invocations and a README example of this facade, with no production wiring to that function. Its callback is boolean-typed. The facade is unchanged from the base; expanding it for a hypothetical caller is outside this migration.
  • Promise-only private dependency types are advisory. Production adapters return promises and their current consumers await completion; synchronous in-memory test dependencies do not restore a synchronous production transport.
  • The providerless credential-cleanup early return is inherited from feat(onboard): support providerless component onboarding #11508 and unchanged relative to the recorded base. It is not included as an unrelated credential-lifecycle repair here.

Full CI passed. In image run34604763802, all-agent activation and MCP discovery pass2 passed; pass1 failed during sandbox creation before MCP discovery. Its fallback deleted the sandbox and stopped the test services after normal destroy refused an ambiguous recovery record. The startup failure remains unclassified; no unchanged rerun has been requested.

The separately recorded policy E2E export failure reproduced on the exact base under the approved different-workflow diagnostic. Policy allow/deny and hot-reload probes remain unexecuted. The PR remains draft.

The failed managed-image MCP pass matches a sandbox-creation failure already observed on main and tracked in #10976. No retry or code change was made.

  • PR commit af080398f9fc933ee6f623d68c18f8985692912d: MCP pass 1 failed during sandbox creation, before MCP discovery.
  • Historical main commit 3076188279c0ea657ec77aeeabebf1f82061eaaf: Telegram job has the same two-stage signature: Ready before a durable create identity, then Error phase with a 180-second readiness limit. I verified the retained job log and the run's main branch and commit.
  • e2e(telegram): sandbox creation can reach Ready before returning a durable ID #10976 was closed after later main runs passed, without a proven root cause or code fix. This establishes a prior upstream occurrence, not a fresh reproduction on today's main or proof of a shared root cause. The four creation/identity implementation files inspected are unchanged by this PR relative to its recorded base c33d1d86769e7ec0701dbad5b1aecf6c0f86c458.
  • Current main c5d9cb2b1873a5e2397cd67656c505304e848818 also has the separate SDK export failure, already reproduced in this PR's base diagnostic. Other recent main failures inspected had different signatures.
  • On the PR commit, MCP pass 2 and all-agent activation passed. Pass 1's NemoClaw cleanup refused ambiguous recovery ownership; the fallback OpenShell delete succeeded. The failed pass does not count as completed MCP validation.

Disposition: inherited failure signature, root cause unproven. Preserve the failed result and upstream evidence for review. Do not add a sandbox-creation fix to this policy adapter PR or treat this evidence as a CI waiver. Full CI passed; all nine current Advisor writeups and the current CodeRabbit review have dispositions in the review record.

CLI shard 8 failure classification for 42bd21686256784dc925fc75c4e78bcf515a67b5: inherited timeout-fixture race.

The failed job expected fixture.result.timedOut to be true at test/e2e/support/launch-agent-turn.test.ts:606. The fixture assigns a two-second internal session budget to supervisor-timeout, while the assertion expects the outer 2.5-second supervisor timeout to fire. The internal deadline can end the command first.

I bundled the unchanged fixture and its actual launch/supervisor implementations into an isolated Linux diagnostic. Five bounded samples produced one normal exit with status 1 and timedOut:false, and four supervisor terminations with timedOut:true. The failing sample reported launch did not record the required structured session turns. All five samples had no remaining TUI or monitor process IDs. The container used an init process, an unprivileged user, no network, and temporary storage.

The test, launch script, launch process wrapper, and process supervisor are byte-identical to base 70cfff5f946a9bb31d1147f78ffbda914a2efaa2. This reproduces the assertion failure in unchanged base code; it is not an exact GitHub runner reproduction. Main's CI run34622492852 had no failed CLI job. The diagnostic used Node 22 on Debian, so it does not establish the precise timing of the CI attempt.

No CI retry or candidate change was made. The inherited test needs its timeout ordering corrected separately; a rerun would only sample the race again. Current managed-image activation and both MCP discovery passes passed. Required CLI CI remains failed, and the latest automated review is pending. This disposition does not waive the failed check.

Test the public migration behavior.

not.toHaveProperty("buildProviderArgs") checks only the module export shape. It does not prove that the public onboarding entrypoint cannot execute the superseded provider-argument path. Add an observable public-boundary test, or retain this assertion only as a secondary guard after proving the old path is unreachable.

As per path instructions: “Prefer observable outcomes through the public boundary over source-text, private-shape, or mock-call assertions” and “Migration tests must prove that public entrypoints reach the new path and that the old path is deleted or cannot execute.”

This PR is open for human review at b1e29124e7b0c569dabafcafc99062e21811b84b.

Implementation CI, all twelve CLI shards, managed-image activation, and both MCP discovery passes succeeded. CodeRabbit's review of this commit is still pending.

PR Review Advisor run34632027333 failed before producing specialist writeups. All nine specialists reported /sandbox/.profile: Permission denied, followed by an OpenShell exec-relay failure. Each specialist confirmed sandbox deletion. This is a review-runtime failure, not an Advisor finding against the PR; no successful Advisor review is claimed.

The maintainer requested that the Advisor failure be documented and the PR remain available for human review. This does not waive merge requirements. The earlier policy E2E allow/deny and hot-reload coverage limitation remains documented in the description.

Run cleanupStaleHostFiles() before the providerless return.

When providerless component activation succeeds, the handler advances to post_verify before calling cleanupStaleHostFiles(). The stale legacy credentials file can therefore remain after onboarding. Run this cleanup before returning, but keep removeLegacyCredentialsFile() behind the allStagedMigrated check.

Reviewed complete CodeRabbit review5182239293 for b1e29124e7b0c569dabafcafc99062e21811b84b, including its outside-diff finding. It posted no new inline findings.

The providerless early return before cleanupStaleHostFiles() is inherited from base 70cfff5f946a9bb31d1147f78ffbda914a2efaa2. This PR changes only the activation-proof return type and awaits that proof in this file; it does not change the providerless branch or credential cleanup. The same finding was dispositioned in the earlier review record. No unrelated credential-lifecycle change is added to this policy-adapter PR.

The PR is available for human review. Implementation CI and managed-image checks passed. Advisor's missing writeups remain documented in the previous comment; no successful Advisor review or merge waiver is claimed.

Reviewed commit b1e2912 for critical correctness and security risks using the NemoClaw Maintainer Security Code Review rubric. No new blocking defect found. Verified asynchronous completion, private policy-file handling, cancellation cleanup, minimized subprocess environment, authoritative policy readback, and post-validation delete-target checks. 211 focused tests passed across twelve files. Current CI, managed-image activation and both MCP discovery checks pass.

Verified the earlier Advisor cancellation and malformed-document repairs. The messaging-applier finding has no production caller passing the migrated function; the providerless credential-cleanup early return is unchanged from the base. The latter remains an inherited concern. All nine security categories were assessed. The documented live policy allow/deny and hot-reload coverage limit remains; this review does not claim those probes passed.

The latest Advisor run produced no specialist reports. Missing Advisor information alone is explicitly accepted by the maintainer for this approval; no successful latest-commit Advisor review is claimed.

## Outcome

External-component providerless onboarding accepts OpenClaw and Hermes
through the same existing lifecycle. Each agent retains its managed
image, configuration generator, and startup integration. Live
qualification remains incomplete, so this PR is a draft.

## Reason

The shared onboarding path rejected every agent except OpenClaw.
Removing that rejection alone would also let Hermes discover stored
messaging credentials during providerless creation.

### Related issues

Refs #11548.

## Changes

- Share supported-agent validation across initial onboarding, provider
selection, and direct sandbox creation. Reject unsupported agents before
preflight effects and preserve requested/resolved agent agreement.
- Preserve conflicting provider, model, endpoint, credential, and
messaging input rejection. Pass an empty messaging selection for
providerless creation to prevent credential discovery.
- Extend the existing OpenClaw/Hermes test matrix for image and registry
identity, managed startup configuration, ordinary provider binding,
identity and policy failures, and bounded activation outcomes.
- Update the owning external-component guidance. Inference route timing,
policy ownership, authentication, and activation failure handling remain
unchanged.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run --project cli
src/lib/onboard/machine/core-flow-phases.test.ts
src/lib/onboard/machine/final-flow-phases.test.ts
src/lib/onboard/machine/initial-flow-phases.test.ts
src/lib/onboard/sandbox-agent.test.ts src/lib/onboard/external-component
src/lib/onboard/managed-workload/onboard-orchestration.test.ts --project
integration test/onboarding/onboard-fresh-create-identity.test.ts
--coverage=false` — 249 passed.
- `npx vitest run --project cli src/lib/onboard/entry-options.test.ts
src/lib/onboard/machine/handlers/gateway.test.ts
src/lib/onboard/managed-startup-image-runtime-handoff.test.ts
--coverage=false` — 128 passed.
- After final edits, the 26 creation integration cases and 21
finalization cases passed again. After rebasing onto
`f267027b9d3d3ce570267a43c118f32c9f25fdaf`, the combined commands above
passed all 377 tests on commit
`31eb6d754554e44b2a79408707eea98097d3a532`.
- `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=8192 npm run typecheck:cli` —
passed.
- `npm run validate:pr` — passed for the rebased commit against
canonical base `f267027b9d3d3ce570267a43c118f32c9f25fdaf`.
- Scoped pre-commit hooks and `git diff --check` — passed, including
formatting, lint, repository checks, and secret scanning. The diff
contains no secrets, API keys, or credentials.
- CLI and plugin builds — passed locally and in the Linux test
environment.

Local live attempts used base `e6068115cc5e02e0d05abdb46ea4509138847617`
plus the working changes, with verified OpenShell 0.0.116 release
binaries (source `d1155aa70042d3e2ee49dbfa15346b108b7c1d92`). Both
fresh-host runs stopped with `endpoint_restricted` before component
preparation: component configuration requires the Docker network before
gateway startup creates it. Each recorded zero preparation and
activation requests. This existing ordering issue remains a separate
blocker outside this PR.

Ordinary NemoClaw onboarding created the network and started OpenShell,
then stopped at provider selection without a supplied credential. An
initialized-gateway attempt encountered incomplete host prerequisites
and exhausted Docker storage. The disposable test environment was
removed.

Neither agent has passing live startup, activation, inference, or
allowed/denied request evidence from this change. Deterministic tests do
not establish live qualification.

## Review notes

Sensitive paths: `src/lib/onboard/**`. Pre-publication review consists
of implementation self-review of NVIDIA/NemoClaw commit
`31eb6d754554e44b2a79408707eea98097d3a532`, covering all changed files,
input rejection, credential discovery, identity agreement, and
activation state preservation. The reviewed repository, commit, and
paths match this candidate. No independent pre-publication review
exists; these paths await independent review. PR #11483 overlaps policy
adapters and component activation/finalization and remains open.

No runtime pin, component schema, policy rewriting, provider lifecycle,
activation retry, or recovery change is included. There is no CI waiver
or merge approval.
