What

--hybrid on DeepSeek or Hermes keeps the parent on the cloud and the subagent on a local model. Privacy replaces personal values with tokens. A private subagent answer stays on the device.

Use

wally models pull pplx-coder
wally models pull pplx-pii
wally deepseek --hybrid --policy privacy -m pplx-coder --cloud-model

Hermes is wally hermes --hybrid with the same flags. -m also takes a directory.

Why

The parent must not see raw personal data, and the local model should be a catalog id.

Test

226 PLS tests, catalog lookup, and CI now runs the PLS tests.

Walkthrough

This change adds a Python router for cloud and local model requests, with policy decisions, task handling, and PII masking. It adds Rust startup and harness integration, MLX models and catalog entries, tests and documentation, plus progress, OpenWork, and process updates.

Changes: PLS hybrid routing

Layer / File(s) Summary
PII model and span decoding
pls/pii_*.py, src/catalog/catalog.rs, tests/test_wally_unit/catalog.rs, tests/golden/expected/local__models__list__--all*
Adds MLX components that classify PII spans with a bidirectional Qwen3 backbone and BIOES decoding. Adds PII and coding model catalog entries and tests for catalog metadata and visibility.
Session mask storage and router privacy handling
pls/mask_store.py, pls/pls.py, pls/test_mask_store.py
Adds a per-harness SQLite store for masking, restoring, and remasking session values. The router applies masking to privacy-sensitive prompts, child tasks, and replies. Tests cover storage and router privacy flows.
Local MLX inference server
pls/model_server.py, pls/requirements.in, pls/test_model_server.py, .github/workflows/ci.yml
Adds an OpenAI-compatible MLX server with chat, streaming, usage, and status endpoints. Adds dependencies and CI execution for Python unit tests.
Router policy and request execution
pls/pls.py, pls/test_pls.py, pls/README.md, pls/fixtures/*
Adds request classification, task records and markers, policy-specific prompt shaping, cloud and local dispatch, response guards, streaming, queue limits, health and statistics endpoints, and debug routes. Tests and documentation cover these behaviors.
Rust router lifecycle and decision socket
src/harness/pls.rs, src/harness/pls_policy_tests.rs, src/harness/mod.rs
Adds Python environment setup, router startup and cleanup, decision handling, and a Unix socket for decision and credential-token requests.
CLI and harness hybrid launch
src/app.rs, src/commands/cmd_harness.rs, src/harness/hybrid.rs, src/harness/agents.rs, tests/golden/*
Registers hybrid options for DeepSeek and Hermes and configures each harness to use cloud parent models and local subagent models. Updates help output and tests.

Indeterminate progress display

Layer / File(s) Summary
Spinner rendering and cleanup
src/progress/progress_bar.rs
Adds an indeterminate spinner with interactive and non-interactive output behavior, plus finish and drop cleanup.

OpenWork launch flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Profile preparation and app launch
src/commands/cmd_openwork.rs
Separates profile preparation and app launch reporting into helpers. The command returns the app status and releases the endpoint.

Process and executable updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Child process and executable replacement
src/harness/harness.rs, scripts/build/build-mlx.sh
Registers an interrupt handler before the POSIX child process starts. The MLX build script replaces wally through a temporary executable name.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review acbc3

Hybrid routing has improved privacy safeguards, but silent configuration failures, streamed-answer handling and session lifecycle failures still warrant fixes before merging. Smaller model-selection and response-format defects also remain. The practical scope is bounded, but the current behavior is not ready for an unconditional merge.

Requesting changes. The routing idea works end to end, but this is customer-facing and several things need fixing first. Everything below was checked on an M5 Max at d985bfd. I drove the router directly the way the harness does, because dsh isn't installed here and I didn't install third-party software. I used an isolated WALLY_PROFILE_DIR throughout.

What works

  • Both servers bind 127.0.0.1 only (pls.py:1276, model_server.py:404).
  • The default (non---hybrid) path is unchanged (launch_agent as before); only wally deepseek --help gains --hybrid/--cloud-model, and the root help is unchanged.
  • 36/36 router tests pass (python -m unittest test_pls, venv built from requirements.lock).
  • Cloud path → 200. Local lane on an entitled account → MLX model loads and answers on-device.
  • No entitlement (signed-out profile): local-lane request → lane: cloud, reason: no-subscription, no model server spawned, 0 load events.
  • Ctrl-C stops the router and the model server and removes the pidfile. After SIGKILL of wally, watch_parent exits the router within ~3 s.

Blockers

  1. Unauthenticated loopback proxy carrying the user's cloud token. Proven against the running router:

    • a POST with no Authorization header → 200, billed to the account;
    • a content-type: text/plain body (a browser "simple request", no CORS preflight) → 200;
    • a forged Host: evil.example → 200 (DNS-rebinding viable);
    • /debug/state answers too; only the /debug page checks PLS_DEBUG.

    Any local process, or a web page that finds the port, can spend on the account. Fix: generate a per-launch random secret, hand it to the harness, and require it on every route. Reject non-application/json POSTs. Allow only Host ∈ {127.0.0.1:<port>, localhost:<port>}. Gate all /debug/* behind PLS_DEBUG.

  2. sweep_stale() kills unrelated processes. It SIGTERMs whatever PID is in pls.pid without checking what it is. Proven: I put the PID of a harmless sleep 600 in the pidfile, started wally, and it printed stopped a leftover router (pid …) and killed the sleep. After a crash plus PID reuse, that's any user process. Fix: confirm the process is this router (command line = venv python + pls.py), or use an flock on the pidfile instead.

  3. The disclosure promise is bypassable. PARENT_DENIED = {read, grep, glob}, so the cloud parent keeps shell/exec/fetch tools; a cat/rg through the shell sends raw file content to the cloud. And when scan_pii finds PII in cloud-bound messages, the router only appends an instruction and forwards the originals. redact() is applied only to subagent results (pls.py:1195-1201). Either strip shell/exec/fetch from the parent in hybrid mode, redact cloud-bound messages, or narrow the claim in the README and help. The regexes also miss names, postal addresses, card numbers and national IDs.

  4. Refresh-token races can sign the user out. check_entitlement() refreshes when who_am_i fails but discards the rotated tokens, and pls.py independently refreshes and rewrites credentials.json alongside the Rust CLI. With rotating refresh tokens, whichever process refreshes second fails. Let wally own refresh and persistence, and have the router ask wally for a token over the existing unix socket. Also, write_credentials creates the tmp file with default permissions and only then chmods it 0600; create it 0600.

  5. Supply chain: requirements.lock has no --hash lines and is installed with uv pip sync on customer machines. That's about 800 MB, needs uv on PATH, and may download Python 3.12. Use uv pip compile --generate-hashes plus --require-hashes, and add a clear message when uv is missing. I checked the unfamiliar httpx2 (via huggingface-hub) and it's the legitimate pydantic/Tom Christie package.

  6. It won't work from a released build: pls.py, model_server.py and requirements.lock must sit beside the binary, but nothing in CMake/packaging/release installs them. Also, a pls.py in the profile directory overrides the bundled one; that should be a dev-only switch.

  7. CI gates fail locally, and no CI ran (the PR conflicts with main in src/commands/mod.rs, the openwork module line). clippy -D warnings: needless_borrow at src/harness/agents.rs:1569. cargo fmt --check: agents.rs:1505,1546, pls.rs:173,342. golden_cli_corpus: help__deepseek and help__help__deepseek need regenerating.

Minor

  • --hybrid/--cloud-model were added to the shared passthrough split, so they now stay wally-side for every harness; a tool with its own --hybrid would break.
  • Router JSON logs go to inherited stderr. Under the dsh TUI they'd likely print over the UI (unverified without dsh).
  • entitlement.sock is left behind after Ctrl-C; a KeyboardInterrupt traceback is printed.
  • The model id is spelled Hybird-Wally-0.1.

No release:* label; not merging.

Follow-up Comments

Major follow-up Bound the model server handshake and kill the child on any failure.

599-612: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Bound the model server handshake and kill the child on any failure.

ensure_model_server waits for the child's first stdout line with no timeout. A hung child holds model_lock and the local slot indefinitely. If the handshake raises after Popen, the child is neither killed nor registered, so it can outlive the router.

Suggested fix
-        line = await asyncio.get_running_loop().run_in_executor(None, proc.stdout.readline)
-        if not line:
-            proc.kill()
-            raise RuntimeError("model server exited before the handshake")
-        port = int(json.loads(line)["port"])
-        model_proc = proc
+        try:
+            line = await asyncio.wait_for(
+                asyncio.get_running_loop().run_in_executor(None, proc.stdout.readline),
+                timeout=HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT,
+            )
+            if not line:
+                raise RuntimeError("model server exited before the handshake")
+            port = int(json.loads(line)["port"])
+        except BaseException:
+            proc.kill()
+            raise
+        model_proc = proc

Run streamed generation steps on the POOL thread.

run_in_executor only creates the stream_generate generator. Prefill and each decode step run when for chunk in it: advances it, on the event-loop thread. Those blocking steps stall other requests. Advance the generator through POOL one chunk at a time, with next(it, done).

Stop signaling a live router without an ownership check.

sweep_stale sends SIGTERM to any live PID in pls.pid. A second wally pls or --hybrid launch kills the first session's router. No lock serializes launches, and pls.py writes the same pid file without checking it. Hold an exclusive lock for the router's lifetime, and signal a recorded PID only when that lock is free.

Minor follow-up Print the port only after the model loads.

407-407: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Print the port only after the model loads.

The port prints before the load hook runs, so the router sends requests mid-load. Uvicorn accepts connections only after startup, so a request waits for the 600 s read timeout (pls/pls.py:124). Loads over 600 s return 502. Print the port after load completes.

1139-1143: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Bound the turns and local_sessions maps.

local_inner adds a key to both local_sessions and turns for every local-lane request, using the caller-supplied x-session-affinity header when present. Nothing removes these entries, so memory grows with each new session for the router's whole lifetime. Evict idle sessions, or cap the map size. When evicting, keep the count for live sessions. Otherwise the max_turns cap resets.

819-821: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Bound the per-subscriber debug event queue.

With PLS_DEBUG=1, each /debug/events subscriber gets an unbounded queue. log() adds every event to each queue. A connected client that stops reading keeps its queue, and the queue grows with every event. Router memory then grows for as long as that connection stays open.

Suggested fix
-    queue: asyncio.Queue = asyncio.Queue()
+    queue: asyncio.Queue = asyncio.Queue(maxsize=1000)

With a bounded queue, log() raises QueueFull from put_nowait. The existing except Exception: pass drops the event for that subscriber, so the queue stays bounded.

1435-1435: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | 💤 Low value

Rename the model id to Hybrid-Wally-0.1 in all three definitions.

The new model id is misspelled as Hybird-Wally-0.1. The id appears in the model list the router returns and in the generated provider config, so users see the typo in the picker. The spelling is defined separately in the Python router and model server, so all three definitions must change together. Nothing in the checkout depends on the current spelling, and the feature is new in this PR, so renaming it now avoids a persisted-config change later.

Minor follow-up Stop signalling a PID after running() reaps the child.

40-50: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Stop signalling a PID after running() reaps the child.

Router::running calls try_wait, which reaps an exited router. Router::drop then sends SIGTERM to the stored PID without checking that state. In cmd_pls, running() returns false and the Router is dropped on the next return. The SIGTERM is therefore sent to a PID the kernel may already have freed. The comment that says the PID is "still unreaped" is wrong on this path.

Practical risk is low. The signal goes out only if another process takes that PID in the short gap between the reap and the drop. Record the exit in running() and skip the kill in Drop when the exit has been recorded.

Suggested fix
 pub struct Router {
     child: Child,
     pub base_url: String,
+    exited: bool,
     #[allow(dead_code)] // held for its Drop; the router reads it over the socket

+        }
     }
 }

 impl Drop for Router {
     fn drop(&mut self) {
         // SIGTERM first: the router kills the model server in its own exit
         // path, which a SIGKILL would skip.
         #[cfg(unix)]

Minor follow-up Reject non-positive PIDs in sweepstale before signaling.

298-306: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Reject non-positive PIDs in sweep_stale before signaling.

sweep_stale checks only that the pid file parses as i32. A value of 0 or -1 passes. On Unix, kill(0, …) targets the caller's process group, and kill(-1, …) targets every process the user can signal. The guard should also reject pid <= 0.

Suggested fix
     let Ok(pid) = text.trim().parse::<i32>() else {
         let _ = std::fs::remove_file(pid_path());
         return;

Minor follow-up Count retained KV entries in the generation budget.

201-209: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Count retained KV entries in the generation budget.

trim_cache runs once, before generation, and it trims only when the cache exceeds MAX_KV. A cache at or below MAX_KV passes through unchanged. The new prompt and up to max_tokens generated tokens are then appended to the retained entries with no later check. The configured limit is therefore a soft bound. Live KV can exceed MAX_KV even when prompt_tokens + max_tokens is within the limit.

Reject the request with HTTP 400 when the retained cache size, the prompt token count, and max_tokens together exceed MAX_KV. Read the retained size after trim_cache has run. Count prompt tokens with the same tokenization that generation uses. Also reject a prompt that exceeds MAX_KV by itself, because that case is not checked today.

Nitpick Assert the child rule on the local request.

247-255: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Assert the child rule on the local request.

The test posts a request with no system message, so inject_child_rules changes nothing on that path. Removing the call at pls/pls.py:1147 still passes this test. Send a system message through /local/v1/chat/completions and assert that the captured local body contains one line.

Nitpick Cover the preset-standard subagent overlay in the hybrid patch test.

2552-2560: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Cover the preset-standard subagent overlay in the hybrid patch test.

The test hybrid_patch_registers_both_lanes_and_pins_subagents_local checks four substrings. The base tool-subagent row already emits all four. The test can therefore pass when hybrid_preset_patch() returns None. No test detects a missing preset-standard overlay.

The overlay adds the agentOptions route to the preset-standard copy. The code comment says the web profile reads subagent settings from that copy. A change in the installed dsh preset layout can remove the overlay without any build or test failure. The current test does not detect that change.

Refactor the overlay so it accepts the preset YAML text and returns the patched text. Keep the dsh lookup and the file read in the caller. Add a test that passes a fixture preset-standard block and asserts that the output contains agentOptions with provider: wally-local. Add a second case without a tool-subagent row and assert that the overlay is not applied.

Re-checked 7dcbf12 (rebased onto main; no conflict now). Good progress: clippy, fmt, ctest 6/6 and the help goldens are clean locally, and the router tests are 41/41.

Re-ran the live probes against the running router (isolated profile):

item d985bfd 7dcbf12
no-token POST / text/plain POST / forged Host 200 401 ✅
unrelated PID in pls.pid killed survives ✅
pls.py / model_server.py / lock in a released build not packaged embedded via include_str! ✅
cloud-bound messages not redacted redact_messages ✅ (regex classes only)
no entitlement → cloud, no model load ✅ ✅

Still blocking

  1. Windows doesn't compile (new): CI windows fails in build-wally: error[E0433]: could not find unix in os at src/harness/pls.rs:10-11, and Permissions::from_mode at :88. UnixListener/UnixStream/PermissionsExt aren't cfg-gated. MLX is Apple-only anyway, so gate the hybrid module and the --hybrid flag behind #[cfg(unix)] (or target_os = "macos"). AGENTS.md lists Windows x64 as a merge blocker.
  2. Credentials (my ask 4), unchanged: check_entitlement() still refreshes and drops the rotated refresh token (credentials.refresh_token = grant.refresh_token is never saved), and pls.py still runs its own refresh_credentials and write_credentials alongside the Rust CLI. With rotating refresh tokens that can sign the user out. Let wally own refresh and persistence. Also create the tmp file 0600 (os.open(..., 0o600)) instead of chmod after writing.
  3. No hash pinning (my ask 5), unchanged: requirements.lock still has 0 --hash lines and is installed with uv pip sync on customer machines (~800 MB). Use uv pip compile --generate-hashes plus --require-hashes.

Smaller

  • The token is checked only on the catch-all route. /stats, /stats/reset (a POST without a token → 200) and /debug/state|export|events are still open; move the check into a middleware for all routes.
  • The cloud parent still keeps its shell tool (PARENT_DENIED = {read, grep, glob}). The README is now honest that paths and counts leave via x-pls-pii, but source or other non-PII file content can still reach the cloud through a shell cat. Either deny shell in hybrid or say so plainly in the help.

Not merging; Sanchit makes the call.

Re-checked 796faf5 at Siddhesh's request. COMMENTED only; the approve or changes-requested call stays with Sanchit.

Passes: merged with main, the build, fmt, clippy and ctest pass (6/6 on rerun). The one first-run failure is a main test-isolation flake, not this PR. Router tests pass: test_pls 124 and test_model_server 3. PR CI is all green, Windows included, so the Windows build is fixed. Live probes against a local fake console, so nothing left the machine:

  • A request without the launch token gets 401.
  • An unrelated pid in the pidfile is left alone.
  • Under privacy with tools, when the decision model is unavailable, the prompt is masked and kept local. That fail-closed behaviour is right.

New policy layer: two paths skip it under the default privacy policy. I confirmed both live: a marker prompt reached the fake cloud verbatim.

  1. Requests with no tools are forwarded as-is. dsh's session-title call is one, and it carries the user's first prompt.
  2. When the entitlement check is false, everything goes to the cloud unshaped. That covers a non-entitled account, an unreachable console, and the refresh bug below.

Suggestion: apply the policy, or answer locally, on both paths whenever the policy is privacy, and say so on the terminal when privacy can't be honoured. Two smaller points:

  • decide() waits 5 s while the Rust side allows 120 s with model load, so the first prompt of a session will usually time out. That's safe under privacy but routes to the cloud under cost.
  • A 0.5 threshold treats the classifier's mistakes symmetrically. Consider biasing privacy toward "private".

Still open from the last review:

  • check_entitlement() still drops the rotated refresh token. pls.py still refreshes and writes credentials alongside it, and the tmp file is chmod'ed after it is written instead of being created 0600.
  • requirements.lock still has no hashes.
  • /stats, /stats/reset and /debug/state|export|events still skip the token check. The debug event log is empty unless PLS_DEBUG=1, so this is low severity.

Minor: if getrandom fails, launch_token() falls back to a predictable time-and-pid value. Failing the launch would be safer.

Re-checked 245f080. COMMENTED only; the approve or changes-requested call stays with Sanchit.

Passes: merged with main, the build, fmt, clippy and ctest pass (6/6). Router tests pass: test_pls 128 and test_model_server 4. PR CI is all green.

New streaming guard holds live (local fake console, nothing left the machine). The fake cloud streamed text followed by a disallowed bash call. The text reached the harness as it arrived, the bash call was never released, and the router emitted its own subagent call instead. Edge cases fall back to buffering rather than leaking: CRLF event separators, or "tool_calls": null on text chunks.

Still open. This commit doesn't touch any of these, and the probes give the same results as on 796faf5:

  • Under the default privacy policy, requests with no tools and requests when the entitlement check is false still go to the cloud unshaped. A marker prompt reached the fake cloud verbatim on both paths.
  • decide() still waits 5 s against the Rust side's 120 s, and the privacy threshold is still a symmetric 0.5.
  • check_entitlement() still drops the rotated refresh token, and pls.py still refreshes and writes credentials, chmod'ing the file after writing it. requirements.lock still has 0 hashes. /stats, /stats/reset and /debug/* still skip the token. launch_token() still falls back to a time-and-pid value.

Re-checked 9e9de46. COMMENTED only; the approve or changes-requested call stays with Sanchit.

Passes: merged with main, the build, fmt, clippy and ctest pass (6/6). Router tests pass: test_pls 140 and test_model_server 4. A fresh venv installs with --require-hashes. PR CI is all green, macOS and both Windows jobs included.

Live probes ran against a local fake console, so nothing left the machine and no real credentials were used.

Earlier asks:

  • Privacy bypasses: fixed, verified live. Under the default privacy policy, a no-tools side call and a request when the entitlement check is false no longer carry the private prompt to the cloud. Masking still fails closed when the decision model is unavailable, and the streaming guard still never releases a disallowed tool call.
  • Decision timeout and threshold: fixed in code, not verified live. decide() now waits 120 s, matching Rust, and privacy answers "private" from p ≥ 0.3. This Mac can't run the MLX decision model, so the decision model was not exercised live.
  • Credentials, lock, token: fixed, verified live.
    • On an expired session, wally refreshed exactly once and the router never did. The profile kept the console's current refresh token, mode 0600, and every cloud call through the router carried the new access token.
    • The lock has hashes for the same pinned versions, and /stats, /stats/reset and /debug/* return 401 without the token and 200 with it.
    • launch_token() now fails instead of falling back to a predictable value.

Optional, not blocking: the entitlement socket now also hands out the access token, so it's worth creating it with owner-only permissions from the start, for example via umask before bind, rather than chmod'ing it after.

Fixed on 9e9de46.

  1. Under privacy, a request with no tools (the session-title call) is decided and a private prompt is replaced before it is sent. An account with no local lane is shaped the same way, and a local-lane call in that case stays on device and returns the withheld placeholder. One stderr line says the local lane is unavailable.
  2. decide() waits 120s, the same budget as the Rust decider, so the first model load is not treated as a failure.
  3. Privacy answers yes at p_yes >= 0.3 (PRIVACY_YES_THRESHOLD). Cost stays at 0.5.
  4. check_entitlement writes a rotated refresh token back to the profile. The router asks wally for the access token on the entitlement socket instead of refreshing beside it. The credential temp file is created mode 0600.
  5. requirements.lock has hashes for the same 78 pins. uv pip sync passes --require-hashes.
  6. /stats, /stats/reset, and /debug/state|export|events require x-pls-token. The event log is still recorded only when PLS_DEBUG=1.
  7. If getrandom fails, the launch stops. There is no time-and-pid fallback.

wally pls returns the router's exit status. A request cancelled while queued drops waiting. Privacy, and any local_only child, does not overflow to the cloud.

Left: cost still sends an unentitled or tool-less request as written, and can overflow a child that is not local_only. That is the cost policy. The HTML /debug page does not send the launch token, so a browser hit on it gets 401s from those routes; putting the token in the page would leave it readable without the header. CodeRabbit's heavy-lift notes are unchanged.

Re-reviewed 9af023d (hybrid for opencode, OpenWork, Hermes and OpenClaw), merged with main locally.

Checks:

  • Build, fmt, clippy and ctest (6/6) pass.
  • Router tests pass (198, hashed lock).
  • CI is green on 9af023d (7/7).

Still holds at this head, re-run against a fake local console (nothing left the machine):

  • Token is required on every route.
  • No private text reached the cloud, with or without tools, and none without a subscription.
  • The stream guard holds back disallowed tool calls.
  • Token rotation: one refresh by wally, the profile file is updated (0600), and retries carry the new token.
  • The lock is fully hashed.

The earlier privacy, decision and credential fixes are all still in place.

New, under the privacy policy (high level):

  1. opencode / OpenWork: the parent can still name any subagent type. A user-defined opencode agent with its own model keeps that model after the hybrid config is merged (checked with opencode 1.18.35). The router passes the agent choice through unchanged, so that child would run on another provider with local file access, without going through the router. Suggest pinning the spawn call to the local agents (general/explore), as the OpenClaw path already strips model.

  2. Hermes: the overlay only pins the background review. Going by the Hermes source (not run live), two kinds of side call can still bypass the router:

    • auxiliary tasks the person's own config points at another provider;
    • image analysis, which falls back to other logged-in providers when the router endpoint can't take images.

    A local child's images or compressed context could leave without the router. Suggest pinning every auxiliary task to the router, or turning it off, in the overlay.

Question: the subscription check (check_entitlement, /entitlement) is removed. Is hybrid meant to be open to every account now?

Not tested live: OpenWork, OpenClaw and Hermes (not installed here).

Re-reviewed ce76892 (span masking), merged with main locally.

Checks:

  • Build, fmt, clippy and ctest (6/6) pass.
  • Router tests: 2 of 225 fail, both in the new test_mask_store.py:
    • test_cost_does_not_mask expects the raw email to reach the cloud under cost, but the regex pass redacts it.
    • test_local_only_does_not_call_the_masker expects a private subagent answer to be withheld without masking, but the code now masks it and returns it.
  • No CI job runs the router tests, so CI can't catch these.
  • CI is green on ce76892 (7/7).

Still holds, re-run against a fake local console (nothing left the machine):

  • Token is required on every route.
  • No private text reached the cloud, with or without tools, and none without a subscription.
  • The stream guard holds back disallowed tool calls.
  • Token rotation still works.
  • The lock is fully hashed.

New, under the privacy policy (high level):

  1. What the cloud sees changes. A prompt judged private used to reach the cloud only as a placeholder, and the subagent's answer was withheld. Now the prompt goes with only personal values tokenised; code, task text and paths are sent. The answer comes back "in full", masked. Sanchit should confirm this is the intended promise.
  2. The PII model isn't shipped. Its weights and its Python code load from a developer checkout under the home directory (or an env var). It isn't in the catalog, nothing downloads it, and it isn't hash-pinned. Running unpinned code from that path is a risk. On a normal install it is missing, so masking fails, safely: the cloud gets the placeholder. But under the default policy every prompt then becomes the placeholder and every summary the failure sentence. Nothing in the log says masking is off. Suggest shipping the model and code through the pinned catalog/lock, and logging a clear line when masking is unavailable.
  3. Answers going back to the cloud. The cloud parent writes the child's prompt. The child sees the real values, and its answer is masked by a model only. A parent can ask the child to restate a value in a form the masker misses. Suggest keeping private answers withheld, or limiting them to a fixed result shape.
  4. Values on disk. The raw personal values are kept in a per-harness SQLite file (0600) with no expiry. Suggest a retention limit or per-session cleanup.

Still open:

  • Earlier asks:
    • opencode/OpenClaw profiles and the x-parent-session-id check are still in pls.py.
    • The Hermes auxiliary tasks are still not pinned.
    • The subscription-check question is still unanswered.
  • This is still the Python router; the Rust port hasn't landed yet.

Not tested: masking with the real model, which isn't available from any source wally uses.

Re-reviewed b08cc29 (masker pinned, private answers withheld), merged with main locally.

Fixed since my last review:

  • The masker code is vendored.
  • The model is a commit-pinned catalog row, passed to the router as PLS_PII_MODEL.
  • Private subagent answers are withheld again.
  • Stored values are dropped after 7 days.
  • A masking_off line is logged.

Checks:

  • Build, fmt and clippy pass.
  • Router tests: 226 OK with the hashed lock.
  • ctest 5/6. golden_cli_corpus fails 2 of 381 cases (models list --all and --all --json), because the new pplx-coder-35b and pplx-pii-masking rows aren't in tests/golden/expected. This happens on every Apple run.
  • CI on b08cc29: 5/7 green. macos fails on the same 2 golden cases. The new "PLS unit tests" step fails in distribution. It installs only fastapi and httpx, but pls.py imports uvicorn, so both test modules fail to import (Ran 2 tests ... FAILED (errors=2)). Suggest installing from pls/requirements.lock with --require-hashes, which also keeps CI pinned.

Live, against a fake local console (nothing left the machine):

  • With pplx-pii pulled by this build (754 MB):
    • The cloud got "Email ⟦pii:1⟧ at ⟦pii:2⟧ or call ⟦pii:3⟧ about the refactor of src/auth.py …", with no raw name, email or phone number in any cloud request.
    • The private child's answer was withheld.
    • The masks folder is 0700 and the mask file 0600, with created_at set.
  • Without the model, the cloud gets only the placeholder.
  • These still hold:
    • Token is required on every route.
    • The stream guard holds back disallowed tool calls.
    • The title call and no-subscription paths leak nothing.
    • Token rotation still works.
    • The lock is fully hashed.

Still open (high level):

  1. Under privacy, a prompt judged private still reaches the cloud with only personal values tokenised; the task text and code go with it. Sanchit should confirm this is the intended promise.
  2. When pplx-pii isn't installed, the launch prints nothing. Masking is off and every prompt becomes the placeholder, and the only trace is a line in the router log. Suggest a terminal line at launch ("PII masker not installed: wally models pull pplx-pii").
  3. This commit also adds an unrelated pplx-coder 35B catalog row (~19.5 GB, harness-compatible). Suggest moving it to its own PR.
  4. Earlier asks:
    • The opencode/OpenClaw profiles and the x-parent-session-id check are still in pls.py.
    • The Hermes auxiliary tasks are still not pinned.
    • The subscription-check question is still unanswered.
    • The Rust port hasn't landed yet.

Bound retries for failed historical decisions.

When the decider hangs, each undecided turn can add roughly 240 seconds to every subsequent parent request, including tool-result requests. Avoid blocking each request on retries for historical turns, and retain the fail-safe decision until a retry succeeds.

Release the inference worker when a stream disconnects.

If a client disconnects before generation finishes, the queue can fill and block pump() permanently. Later local inference requests then wait behind it until the model server restarts. Make cancellation release any pending queue put and stop the producer, including its final sentinel put.

Reject incomplete installed models before launch.

A cancelled pull can leave a manifest-only directory that both selection functions accept. The router starts, but local subagent calls can fail when the model server loads it. Skip incomplete candidates when selecting a default or resolving a catalog ID, and report when no usable download remains.

Preserve termination and outer interrupt actions.

If SIGTERM targets only wally, the empty action suppresses it while wally waits for the tool. The action also replaces the Claude Desktop cleanup guard and does not restore it. A subsequent Ctrl-C can exit before the gateway profile is restored. Preserve both behaviors while waiting.

Prevent timed-out jobs from blocking later decisions.

If a decision exceeds 120 seconds, the worker continues it and then processes queued jobs even if they have timed out. Later decisions can also time out behind that abandoned work. The router then uses policy fallbacks instead of model decisions, potentially for an extended period.

Keep token numbers unique after retention purges.

Preserve numeric tool arguments using the tool schema.

If the local model emits <parameter=timeoutMs>30000</parameter> for DeepSeek bash, parse_tool_calls() returns "timeoutMs":"30000". DeepSeek rejects the string, so the command does not run. Decode numeric arguments using the requested tool schema while preserving string parameters.

Set accepted streams to blocking mode.

On macOS, an accepted stream inherits nonblocking mode. If the server reads before the router writes, it can reject a valid request. Decisions then use policy defaults, and token refreshes can fail. Set each accepted stream to blocking mode before reading, and handle errors from that change.

complete call as a tool-call delta rather than XML content. Preserve any text
between calls in the appropriate output.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @pls/mask_store.py:
- Around line 159-161: Update the remasking substitution around `pattern.sub` so
existing `⟦pii:…⟧` tokens are treated as opaque and left unchanged, while
unmasked stored values are still replaced with their tokens.
- Line 178: Update _token_for and the associated masking/demasking flow to
preserve token provenance: only replace tokens generated for masked values
during demasking, while leaving identical literal tokens from the original
prompt unchanged.
- Around line 192-195: Update token allocation around TOKEN_RE, occupied, and
number to reserve literal token numbers across calls, including calls with no
spans, so later masks cannot reuse numbers already present in earlier prompts.

Review comments at @pls/model_server.py:
- Around line 327-346: Update the nested offer function to keep and poll the
same queue.put future after a timeout instead of scheduling another put for the
item. Cancel that pending future when stop is set, while preserving the existing
return behavior once the put completes.
- Around line 337-346: The pump function only checks stop after
mlx_vlm.stream_generate yields, so abandoned requests can keep the worker busy
during prefill. Update the generation path to make prefill cancellation-aware
using a supported mechanism, so it can stop promptly before the first yield
while preserving the existing stop check and completion signaling.

Review comments at @pls/pii_model.py:
- Around line 63-65: Sort spans by start and end position before merging them,
using category only as a tie-breaker; update the sort that feeds the merge loop
so category ordering cannot cause an earlier personal span to be discarded.

Review comments at @src/app.rs:
- Around line 245-248: Update is_wally_flag so OpenCode’s --cloud flag is
classified on the wally side before the separator, while preserving the existing
handling for DeepSeek and Hermes flags.

Review comments at @src/harness/pls.rs:
- Around line 490-493: Bound the connection-worker path around
`std::thread::spawn` and `answer` so open connections cannot create unlimited
threads; enforce a total request deadline that repeated reads cannot reset, and
preserve dedicated capacity for token requests. Use the existing request and
worker handling mechanisms where available, and establish how they distinguish
token requests before applying the limit.

181-183: Minor · Potential issue

Unverified finding
We couldn't verify this from the code. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

A held literal token can cause a later overlapping stored-value edit to be skipped, leaving the full stored value unmasked in a privacy cloud-bound message.

The literal-token edit is applied first and the overlapping value edit is skipped, so remask leaves the stored value in the message; the regex PII scanner does not recognize this example before cloud forwarding.

This can occur when: A privacy session stores the value pii:1⟧ x, and a later non-system chat message contains ⟦pii:1⟧ x.

Review comments at @pls/mask_store.py:
- Line 102: Update the no-span prompt flow around _reserve_literals so database
lock contention does not block the event loop; perform reservation work off the
router’s event loop. On contention, retry reservation without persisting or
substituting a failed mask, and only use the placeholder after reservation
succeeds.
- Around line 161-165: Update the regex used by remask to find stored values
even when they are adjacent to word characters; the current `(?<!\w)` and
`(?!\w)` assertions cause those matches to be missed. Ensure `value_spans`
includes the stored value in cases such as `call+1 555 1234`, so it is masked
before the result is returned.
- Around line 161-165: Update the matcher construction and `pattern.finditer`
scan so repeated non-system messages do not rebuild and scan a matcher over
every value accumulated in the privacy session; use a scalable matcher and move
expensive remasking work off the router event loop. Preserve correct
value-to-lookup mapping and match spans while establishing an appropriate
off-loop execution path within the existing flow.
- Around line 256-271: Update the literal-token reservation and allocation logic
in the shown mask-store block to handle token numbers beyond SQLite’s integer
range and exhausted session sequences without failing masking. Preserve
collision checks for literal tokens and ensure later masks can still receive
unique tokens; do not persist out-of-range sequence values.

Review comments at @pls/test_mask_store.py:
- Around line 117-121: Update the remask boundary assertions in this test:
verify `self.store.remask` returns `"xAnn"` unchanged, assert the exact
replacement for the embedded literal token instead of only checking that the
original is absent, and cover a value beginning with a non-word character such
as `"@Ann"` with its exact remasked result. Use `self.store.mask` and `span` to
set up any additional case.

Review comments at @src/app.rs:
- Line 248: Update the `token` check in the `command == "opencode"` path to
recognize both the exact `--cloud` flag and inline `--cloud=` values, so inline
values select the hosted endpoint instead of being forwarded to OpenCode.

120-121: Trivial · Functional Correctness · Low value

Check that the literal token stays unchanged.

If allocation assigns ⟦pii:42⟧ to the whole value, the remask assertion still passes. A later demask of the standalone literal would expand it to the whole value.

Suggested fix
