Hub: expose bounded model-visible artifact export for local files
Summary
SentinelX can safely read/list/search local files, and the Agent already has a binary-safe file_export_* path for Hub-coordinated host-to-host transfer. What is still missing is the opposite-facing last mile: a connected model cannot ask SentinelX to materialize an allowed local file as a model-visible native file/artifact that the chat can consume multimodally.
This becomes a hard capability gap for scanned PDFs, images, audio, and other binary evidence. The Agent can access

Agent enrollment succeeds but WebSocket handshake is rejected with HTTP 400
Hi,
I'm trying to enroll a Debian 12 VPS with SentinelX Cloud.
The installation and enrollment complete successfully, but the host never appears in the SentinelX dashboard and the agent continuously receives HTTP 400 during the WebSocket handshake.
Environment:
- OS: Debian 12 Bookworm
- Python: 3.11.2
- Installation method: official get.sentinelx.app installer
- Agent service: sentinelx-cloud-core
- Hub: https://mcp.sentinelx.app
- ChatGPT SentinelX plugin installed and authenticated

Windows script_run does not reliably round-trip Unicode for Python or PowerShell 5.1
Summary
Current Agent 0.11.0 (e7284d579fc6e7de152716d7bd24c871dd499ce7) has two interpreter-specific Windows encoding failures under the same user-facing script_run contract:
interpreter="python3"can inherit a legacy stdio encoding and raiseUnicodeEncodeErroror corrupt text;interpreter="powershell"on Windows PowerShell 5.1 can misdecode UTF-8 script source and/or emit legacy-encoded redirected output while SentinelX decodes captured bytes as UTF-8.
Both make ordinary Unic

P1: successful host operations can lose responses, retry execution, or exceed websocket frame limits
Proposed GitHub issue
Title
P1: successful host operations can lose responses, retry execution, or exceed websocket frame limits
Body
A live Windows SentinelX/ChatGPT investigation found multiple end-to-end failure modes where the host operation completes successfully, but the result is not reliably delivered to the LLM. This is dangerous for both usability and mutation safety because a caller may interpret the missing/failure-shaped result as "SentinelX is broken" or retry an op

Compact profile: expose block/chunk transfer inside the three-tool surface
Summary
The live compact profile is useful, but ordinary file ingress/staging still falls out of the 3-tool surface even though the backend operations already exist.
Request
Please expose direct upload, chunked/block upload, and staged-edit transfer semantics inside the existing compact surface rather than adding a fourth top-level tool.
The goal is capability parity for ordinary host work while preserving the context/tool-selection benefit of sentinel_execute / sentinel_files / `s

Add a generic opaque per-call context tag across host-operation surfaces
Summary
A small opaque caller-supplied context field would be useful across SentinelX surfaces, not only compact mode or SU24.
Request
Please consider one optional bounded string such as tag / opaque_tag that host-operation surfaces can carry end-to-end unchanged.
The Hub should attach no semantics to it. Stock agents may ignore it; integrations, compatible agents, automation layers, or future SentinelX features may interpret it for their own correlation/routing/context needs.

Compact profile: make help/playbooks profile-aware and lazily scoped
Summary
The new 3-tool compact profile is a real context win, but help / capabilities / playbook guidance can give much of that context back and sometimes points to full-profile tools that are not exposed while compact mode is active.
Suggested direction
Keep introspection progressive and profile-aware:
- small top-level help/index by default;
- topic/path lookup for exact operation or workflow guidance;
- recovery/playbook text that matches the active profile (or uses profile-neut

Proposal: deterministic project_snapshot for compact project context
Proposal: deterministic project_snapshot for fast project orientation
The new compact MCP profile is a great step for reducing model-facing tool/schema overhead. A remaining source of context/tool-call cost on coding tasks is project discovery: before doing useful work, the model often has to list directories, inspect Git state, find manifests/tests, check recent commits, and repeat several reads/searches just to understand the workspace.
I would like to propose a small, deterministic, re

Add end-to-end MCP result delivery receipts for skipped or missing client payloads
Problem
SentinelX can successfully execute and return an MCP tool call while a ChatGPT conversation receives only an opaque placeholder such as Skipped … messages. In affected turns, even minimal one-line commands and bounded file reads become uninspectable, so response size alone does not explain the loss.
Host-side audit records currently establish execution but not end-to-end delivery. They preserve operation, payload metadata, success/error, duration, and timestamp, but do not provide

Cloudflare integration: add read-only security tooling (rulesets, security events, zone settings, access) + guarded mutations
Summary
Requested by an external user operating frequencies.fr (reached us by email; they couldn't file directly — their GitHub only has read access to this repo, so issue creation returned 403). Filing on their behalf.
The hosted Cloudflare integration exposes only DNS operations (cloudflare_dns_list_zones, cloudflare_dns_list_records, create/update/delete). Those work well. The gap is the security surface: with only DNS tools, the model can't inspect the rules that may be block

Hub/ChatGPT: sentinel_git is not exposed although the agent advertises the git op
Summary
SentinelX 0.8.0/0.9.0 advertises the new backend git operation, but the hosted ChatGPT MCP tool catalog on a live full-profile connection does not expose the corresponding sentinel_git tool.
The maintainer update on issue #11 says the dedicated sentinel_git tool (diff and apply_patch) shipped in 0.8.0, and the upgraded 0.9.0 agent reports:
ops_supported: [..., "git"]
However, querying the live SentinelX tool catalog from ChatGPT after upgrading the connected

CHANGELOG is missing the 0.8.0 sentinel_git release entry
Summary
CHANGELOG.md currently jumps from 0.7.0 to 0.9.0 and does not contain a 0.8.0 entry, even though 0.8.0 introduced a substantial new public capability: the structured Git operation / sentinel_git tool with diff and apply_patch.
The repository history includes the 0.8.0 work and issue #11 explicitly records that these features shipped in 0.8.0, but operators reading the changelog cannot discover what changed in that release.
Why this matters

Hub: capability-aware dispatch should fail fast for unsupported ops on mixed-version hosts
Summary
The Hub should capability-check a selected target host before dispatching an operation that the agent does not advertise, especially on mixed-version/mixed-implementation connections.
This becomes increasingly important as the shared MCP catalog grows (project_snapshot, git, future ops) while one LLM connection can front several agents with different versions/capabilities.
Observed behavior
A previous live test documented on issue #10 showed:

Document agent.preferred_profile in all stock config examples
Summary
SentinelX 0.9.0 introduces agent.preferred_profile (compact | full), but the option is only shown in config.orion.example.yaml and is absent from the stock example configs operators are most likely to copy.
Current repository check:
config.example.yaml -> no preferred_profile
config.example.windows.yaml -> no preferred_profile
config.example.macos.yaml -> no preferred_profile

### script_run: unvalidated cwd surfaces as internal_error instead of invalid_payload
## Summary
`script_run` passes the caller-provided `cwd` straight to `create_subprocess_exec` without validating it. When `cwd` is inaccessible (e.g. `/home/sentinelx` when the agent user can't enter that directory), the spawn raises `PermissionError` ([Errno 13]) which is not caught in the handler, bubbles up to the executor's generic `except Exception`, and surfaces to the user as a confusing `internal_error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '<path>'`.
It reads like something broke on our side,
