* feat(gateway): add TOML configuration file (RFC 0003)
Introduces an opt-in --config / OPENSHELL_GATEWAY_CONFIG flag that loads a
TOML file with gateway-wide settings and per-driver tables. Source
precedence is CLI > env > file > built-in default, implemented via clap's
ValueSource so existing flags and env vars keep their priority.
Driver crates (kubernetes, docker, podman, vm) now derive Deserialize on
their config structs. SupervisorSideloadMethod gains Deserialize with
kebab-case rename. A per-driver inheritance allowlist on the loader side
overlays [openshell.gateway] shared defaults (default_image,
supervisor_image, image_pull_policy, guest_tls_*, ssh_handshake_skew_secs,
client_tls_secret_name, host_gateway_ip, enable_user_namespaces) onto
each [openshell.drivers.<name>] table before deserialization.
The Helm chart renders a new gateway-config ConfigMap and mounts it at
/etc/openshell/gateway.toml. The migrated OPENSHELL_* env entries are
dropped from the StatefulSet — only the Secret-backed
OPENSHELL_SSH_HANDSHAKE_SECRET remains. database_url stays on --db-url.
Adds examples/gateway/gateway.example.toml and updates architecture/gateway.md
with the source precedence and inheritance rules.
* docs(gateway): drop ssh_handshake_skew_secs and ssh_handshake_secret from examples
Both fields are scheduled for removal. Remove the example values and the
env-only note so the gateway.toml example and the architecture doc stop
recommending settings that will not exist much longer.
* docs(rfc): correct OPENSHELL_CONFIG to OPENSHELL_GATEWAY_CONFIG in RFC 0003
* docs(gateway): add per-driver TOML example configurations
Adds focused single-driver examples next to the comprehensive
gateway.example.toml: kubernetes, docker, podman, and microvm. Each one
demonstrates the realistic settings for that driver plus how shared
[openshell.gateway] defaults inherit into the driver table.
A new unit test (`checked_in_examples_parse`) loads every example through
the config_file loader so schema drift fails CI rather than silently
shipping a broken example.
* refactor(gateway): drop image_pull_policy from shared inheritance
Kubernetes and Podman use mutually-incompatible vocabularies for the same
TOML key:
- Kubernetes: `Always | IfNotPresent | Never` (free-form string passed
verbatim to the K8s API).
- Podman: `always | missing | never | newer` (strict lowercase enum
deserialised into `ImagePullPolicy`).
No value means the same thing in both drivers. Sharing the key at
`[openshell.gateway]` scope and inheriting it into every active driver's
table meant any value safe for one driver was either wrong or silently
dropped for the other (`IfNotPresent` → `ImagePullPolicy::Missing` after
`.unwrap_or_default()`). Operators run one driver per gateway, so the
"shared default" never pays for itself.
Make `image_pull_policy` driver-local:
- Remove the field from `GatewayFileSection` and from
`inheritable_keys()` for both Kubernetes and Podman.
- Drop the file→`RunArgs` merge for the gateway-scope key.
- Stop unconditionally clobbering the driver value with
`config.sandbox_image_pull_policy` in the runtime wiring — only apply
the CLI/env override when it was set (and, for Podman, only when it
parses into the lowercase enum).
- Move the key under `[openshell.drivers.kubernetes]` and
`[openshell.drivers.podman]` in every example, the RFC, the
architecture doc, and the Helm-rendered gateway ConfigMap.
The supervisor pull policy follows the same shape: it is K8s-only and
moves into `[openshell.drivers.kubernetes]` alongside `image_pull_policy`
in the Helm template.
* fix(gateway): address review feedback on TOML configuration
Resolves the P1 and P2 issues raised in PR #1317:
- Helm gateway ConfigMap moves `grpc_endpoint` under
`[openshell.drivers.kubernetes]` so the default install no longer fails
the gateway's `deny_unknown_fields` schema check.
- `kubernetes_config_from_file` and `podman_config_from_file` only let
the gateway-wide CLI/env `grpc_endpoint` overwrite the driver-table
value when it was actually supplied, preserving file-only configs.
- Kubernetes driver default `image_pull_policy` is now empty (was Podman
vocabulary "missing"), so default deployments let the Kubernetes API
apply its own policy instead of being rejected.
- New `disable_tls` gateway field plumbs `.Values.server.disableTls`
through the TOML ConfigMap instead of relying on env vars dropped from
the StatefulSet.
- StatefulSet pod template now carries a `checksum/gateway-config`
annotation so `helm upgrade` rolls pods when the ConfigMap changes.
- Auxiliary listener resolution preserves the full `SocketAddr` from
`health_bind_address` / `metrics_bind_address`, so a loopback-pinned
health port is not silently relocated onto the public bind address.
- `ssh_session_ttl_secs` from the file is now applied to `Config` (it
was previously accepted by the loader but never read).
New regression coverage: cli-level merge tests for the new fields plus
helm-unittest assertions for the ConfigMap shape, checksum annotation,
and `disable_tls` rendering.
* docs(gateway): consolidate gateway TOML examples into docs reference
Replaces the per-driver example files under examples/gateway/ with a
single published reference page at docs/reference/gateway-config.mdx
covering source precedence, layout, the full example, and the four
per-driver examples (Kubernetes, Docker, Podman, microVM). Drew flagged
during PR #1317 review that the examples belong with the user-facing
docs rather than in a sibling examples/ directory.
The cross-references in architecture/gateway.md and RFC 0003 are updated
to point at the new docs page; the round-trip test in config_file.rs is
removed (schema coverage stays on the inline parses_full_example test
and per-field merge tests — doc-snippet drift belongs in a separate
docs-lint, not in a cross-tree Rust unit test).
* refactor(core): move DEFAULT_K8S_NAMESPACE into K8s driver
The constant is Kubernetes-specific (used only by KubernetesComputeConfig's
Default impl) and does not belong in openshell-core. Relocate it to the
driver crate that owns the K8s vocabulary; openshell-core retains only
truly cross-cutting defaults.
* refactor(core): move Podman bridge default into Podman driver
DEFAULT_NETWORK_NAME is Podman vocabulary, consumed only by the Podman
driver. Also drops the unused DEFAULT_IMAGE_PULL_POLICY constant.
* docs(auth): scrub remaining SSH handshake secret references
Sweeps the trailing mentions left after the rebase: the gateway
config-file module doc, the Helm gateway-config ConfigMap header,
the gateway-config.mdx env-only note, and the RPM systemd unit
comment for init-gateway-env.sh.
* docs(gateway): clarify OPENSHELL_GRPC_ENDPOINT applies to all drivers
The previous comment implied the callback endpoint was Kubernetes-only,
but the value is propagated to every compute driver (Kubernetes, Docker,
Podman, VM) and must be reachable from wherever the sandbox runs.
* refactor(gateway): move driver options into config (#1394)
Signed-off-by: Drew Newberry <anewberry@nvidia.com>
* fix(e2e): regenerate gateway config via TOML for docker + podman harnesses
The gateway CLI flags moved into TOML config tables in 560550d2 (#1394),
which made every existing e2e/with-{docker,podman}-gateway.sh invocation
fail with "unexpected argument '--sandbox-namespace'" (and a long tail
of similar driver-specific options) before the gateway could even bind.
Replace the obsolete CLI flags with a synthesized
`[openshell.drivers.<driver>]` table written to `${STATE_DIR}/gateway.toml`
and passed via the new `--config` flag. Only the gateway-wide flags
that survived 560550d2 (bind-address, port, drivers, db-url, tls-*,
disable-tls, log-level, health-port) stay on the command line.
Both scripts get a small `toml_string` helper to properly TOML-quote
the values (the previous `%q` printf format produced bash-escape, not
TOML-escape). The Docker harness also corrects two field names that
diverged from the driver schema: `docker_network_name` →
`network_name`, and the supervisor binary/image plumbing now reads
through to `supervisor_bin` / `supervisor_image` in the same table.
The Podman harness drops `--ssh-gateway-port` (deleted in 560550d2 —
gRPC + SSH are multiplexed on the same port now) and substitutes
`network_name` + `gateway_port` for the obsolete `--sandbox-namespace`
(which the Podman driver never had as a typed field).
* fix(core): swap bind-only 0.0.0.0 SSH gateway host for cluster URL host
CLI's resolve_ssh_gateway treated 0.0.0.0 as a loopback "keep as-is"
when the cluster URL was also loopback, so the SSH proxy connected to
0.0.0.0:port. The unspecified address is never a valid connect target
and is not present in any TLS cert SAN, which produced BadCertificate
TLS handshake failures during `openshell sandbox create -- ...` in
docker/podman e2e (e.g. bypass_detection).
Resolution: when the server returns 0.0.0.0 or :: as the gateway host
and both endpoints are loopback, fall back to the cluster URL's host
(which the CLI is already using to reach the gateway, so it must
resolve and match the cert).
* fix(e2e): repair podman harness on macOS
Podman 5.x with the applehv/libkrun provider no longer creates the legacy
~/.local/share/containers/podman/machine/podman.sock symlink, and
`podman system service` is a Linux-only subcommand — the macOS client
delegates the API service to the VM. Both assumptions in the harness
were stale, so the script tried to start a temporary service that podman
rejected with "unknown flag: --time".
- Discover the macOS socket via `podman machine inspect` instead of the
hardcoded path.
- On Darwin, fail fast with a "start podman machine" message rather than
attempting the Linux-only `podman system service` fallback.
- Write socket_path into [openshell.drivers.podman] so the in-process
driver picks up the discovered socket; the driver reads TOML only
after the config refactor (560550d2), so OPENSHELL_PODMAN_SOCKET alone
was no longer enough.
* fix(server): use clone_from for TLS client CA assignment
clippy 1.95.0 rejects assigning the result of `Clone::clone()` to an
existing variable under `-D warnings` (`assigning_clones`). Switch to
`clone_from(&...)` to satisfy the lint and avoid the redundant
allocation.

## Summary
Implements transparent inference interception and routing for sandboxed AI agents. The sandbox proxy intercepts outbound AI SDK calls (OpenAI, Anthropic) and reroutes them through the gateway to policy-controlled backends — enabling organizations to redirect inference traffic to local or self-hosted models without modifying agent code.
**Decision model** — a tri-state OPA evaluation for every CONNECT request:
1. Binary + endpoint explicitly allowed in `network_policies` → **allow** (pass through)
2. Not explicitly allowed + `inference.allowed_routes` configured → **inspect for inference** (TLS intercept, detect API patterns, route through gateway)
3. Otherwise → **deny**
No endpoint declarations or binary lists needed for inference routing. Just configure `inference.allowed_routes`.
## Key Changes
### Sandbox (interception)
- **OPA policy**: New `network_action` Rego rule with three outcomes (`allow`, `inspect_for_inference`, `deny`). New `NetworkAction` enum replaces `PolicyDecision.allowed` bool for the proxy's main decision path.
- **Proxy**: New `InspectForInference` path — TLS-terminates client, parses HTTP, detects inference API patterns (`POST /v1/chat/completions`, `/v1/completions`, `/v1/messages`), strips auth headers, forwards via gRPC.
- **New module**: `l7/inference.rs` — `InferenceApiPattern`, `detect_inference_pattern()`, HTTP request/response parsing.
- **gRPC client**: New `proxy_inference()` for sandbox→gateway forwarding.
- **Sandbox init**: Creates OPA engine when inference is configured, even without `network_policies`.
### Gateway (dispatch)
- **InferenceService**: `ProxyInference` RPC loads sandbox policy, resolves allowed routes, dispatches to router. Full CRUD for inference routes.
- **Proto**: `InferenceRoute`, `InferenceRouteSpec`, `ProxyInferenceRequest/Response`, Inference gRPC service.
### Router (backend proxying)
- **New crate**: `navigator-router` with `Router`, `proxy_with_candidates()`, protocol-based route selection, backend HTTP proxying with auth header rewriting.
- **Mock support** for testing (`mock://` scheme).
### CLI
- `nav inference create/update/delete/list` commands for route management.
### Python SDK
- Updated protobuf bindings. Removed old `inference.py` client (replaced by transparent interception).
### Documentation
- New `architecture/inference-routing.md` — end-to-end system documentation.
- Updated `architecture/sandbox.md` — proxy, OPA, and source index sections.
- Updated `architecture/README.md` — new subsystem overview and diagram.
## Addendum: Chunked Transfer Compatibility
This branch now also fixes intercepted SDK requests that send chunked request bodies:
- `inspect_for_inference` now accepts `Transfer-Encoding: chunked` and decodes chunked request bodies before forwarding to the gateway
- Removed the prior `411 Length Required` response for chunked intercepted requests
- Added request/response header sanitization for framing and hop-by-hop headers (`content-length`, `transfer-encoding`, `connection`, etc.) to keep forwarded requests and returned responses valid
- Added unit tests for chunked parsing and header sanitization
Note: this improves compatibility for streaming-style SDK request patterns; true token-by-token passthrough response streaming is still a separate follow-up.
## Minimal Policy for Inference Routing
```yaml
inference:
allowed_routes:
- local
```
Any outgoing connection from a binary not explicitly allowed in `network_policies` will be intercepted and checked for inference API patterns.
## Test Plan
- [x] `cargo test --workspace` — all tests pass
- [x] `mise run pre-commit` — all checks pass
- [x] E2E: OpenAI chat completions routed through gateway
- [x] E2E: Anthropic messages routed through gateway
- [x] E2E: Python OpenAI SDK from sandbox (`examples/inference/inference.py`)
- [x] E2E test: `e2e/python/test_inference_routing.py`
## Summary
- Add `Provider` entity for managing 3p deps from a sandbox
- Add provider CRUD API/server persistence and new CLI workflows (`nav provider create/get/list/update/delete`), including `--from-existing` laptop discovery.
- Integrate providers into sandbox create flow: infer from command (`-- claude`), support repeatable `--provider <type>`, prompt before auto-create, and allow manual in-sandbox setup.
- Add a dedicated `navigator-providers` crate with per-provider modules and mockable discovery test helpers.
## Key UX Changes
- `nav sandbox create --provider gitlab -- claude`
- Missing provider prompt now asks before creating from local state.
- `nav provider list --names` for scripting/cleanup.

## Problem
SSH sessions into the sandbox were **not entering the network namespace** or receiving proxy environment variables. This meant every command run via SSH (the only user-facing path) had unrestricted internet access, completely bypassing OPA network policy enforcement.
The root cause: the SSH server was started **before** the network namespace and proxy were created in `lib.rs`, so it never received the netns fd or proxy URL.
Additionally, **gRPC inference from within the sandbox did not work at all** — even after fixing the netns, multiple issues prevented the Python SDK from reaching the navigator server through the CONNECT proxy.
## Changes
### Sandbox binary
**Core fix — reorder startup + thread netns through SSH:**
- `lib.rs`: Move netns + proxy creation before SSH server start. Compute `ssh_netns_fd` and `ssh_proxy_url`, pass them to `run_ssh_server()`.
- `ssh.rs`: Thread `netns_fd` and `proxy_url` through the full SSH call chain into `spawn_pty_shell()`. Set proxy env vars on the shell command. Call `setns(fd, CLONE_NEWNET)` in `install_pre_exec()`.
**Proxy — control plane allowlist + IPv6 socket lookup:**
- `proxy.rs`: Connections to the navigator endpoint (derived from `NAVIGATOR_ENDPOINT`) are always allowed without OPA evaluation, logged with `engine=control_plane`. This is infrastructure the sandbox needs to function, not a user-configurable policy.
- `procfs.rs`: Extended `parse_proc_net_tcp` to also check `/proc/<pid>/net/tcp6`. gRPC C-core uses `AF_INET6` sockets even for IPv4 connections, so its TCP entries were invisible to the proxy's identity resolver. Also fixed port parsing to use `rsplit_once(':')` for correct IPv6 address handling.
**Proxy env vars — lowercase variants for gRPC C-core:**
- `process.rs` + `ssh.rs`: Added lowercase `http_proxy`, `https_proxy`, `grpc_proxy` alongside uppercase. gRPC C-core (libgrpc) checks lowercase first and was ignoring the uppercase-only vars.
### Server
- `sandbox/mod.rs`: Added `CAP_SYS_PTRACE` to sandbox pod security context. Required for the proxy (root) to read `/proc/<pid>/fd/` of sandbox-user processes for binary identity resolution.
### Python SDK
- `inference.py`: Strip `http://`/`https://` scheme from endpoint before passing to `grpc.insecure_channel()`, which expects `host:port`. Default `endpoint` and `sandbox_id` from `NAVIGATOR_ENDPOINT` / `NAVIGATOR_SANDBOX_ID` env vars so `Inference()` works inside sandboxes with no arguments.
### Build / infra
- `ci.toml`: Added `--cap-add=SYS_PTRACE` to `mise run sandbox` to mirror the k8s pod capabilities.
### Documentation
- `architecture/sandbox.md`: Documented `CAP_SYS_PTRACE` requirement and the full set of proxy env vars (uppercase + lowercase).
## Testing
All 29 sandbox unit tests pass. `mise run pre-commit` passes (fmt, clippy, all workspace tests, python lint).
E2E verified on a live cluster:
| Test | Result |
|------|--------|
| Proxy env vars (6 vars, upper+lowercase) | PASS |
| Blocked endpoints (google, anthropic via curl) | PASS — all denied |
| **gRPC inference from SSH session** (`Inference()` with no args, env var defaults) | **PASS** |
| Proxy log: navigator requests show `engine=control_plane` | PASS |
| Proxy log: blocked requests show `engine=opa` with correct deny reasons | PASS |
