### Sandbox semantics

Mount code runs as an async-function body in a fresh vm realm. Its documented surface steers file, network, process, and timer access through Cordis services so mounts remain inspectable and disposable. Host-realm helpers still make Node escape possible, consistent with the trusted posture. `vmTimeoutMs` bounds only synchronous evaluation.

Sandbox globals are deliberately small: a tagged write-through `console` (`[cordis:<id>] …` on the host stdout/stderr, so a listener that fires long after the mount call still lands somewhere the user sees), the `harness.defineTool` / `harness.registerTool` registration pair, the encoding primitives fresh vm contexts lack (`btoa`/`atob` as host closures over `Buffer` — a sanctioned exception, `Buffer` itself is never exposed — plus `TextEncoder`/`TextDecoder`), and callable traps over the withheld Node APIs (`require`, `setTimeout`/`setInterval`/`setImmediate`/`clearTimeout`/`clearInterval`, `fetch`) that throw a redirect naming the cordis alternative. Only function-shaped globals are trapped; `process` and `Buffer` stay `undefined` so a `typeof` feature probe stays inert rather than detonating a throwing accessor.

### The generated API catalog
|
||||
|
||||
`cordis_inspect` serves API and event data from a generated catalog rather than a duplicated table. The generator reuses the Cordis catalog AST scan and emits service summaries, signatures, original service-method and event JSDoc, event modes, referenced type declarations, and the inherited context surface. Ambiguous type names are omitted and oversized declarations are marked as truncated.

|

|

Freshness is gated like every generated artifact: `pnpm run verify-cordis-api` (in `doc-sync`) regenerates in memory and fails on any diff, so a JSDoc or public-signature edit cannot ship without regenerating the catalog the model reads. At runtime the inspect tool intersects the catalog with the live runtime rather than dumping it: broad reports render live catalogued services as summary + signatures, live services without a catalog entry (mount-provided ones) as name + owning fiber, catalogued services with no live provider tersely, and then the referenced type shapes. Exact-name reports render one live service or event with the original JSDoc immediately before each signature; keeping that detail opt-in avoids charging its token cost on exploratory listings.

**A new `cordis/mount` session event.** A durable event recording each mount's source and name has clear precedent (`hook/invoked`, `compact/start`). It was declined for v1: mount and unmount are already visible as `tool/call` / `tool/result` pairs and the tool-set change is already logged as a full changed request header, so a dedicated event would only duplicate the record. It remains addable if an audit use case needs the mount source and name outside the tool call.

**A hardened / capability-restricted sandbox.** Trapping Node built-ins and handing mount code a whitelist façade rather than the raw context might suggest an intent to sandbox for safety. It is explicitly not that: the traps and the façade narrow the *surface* mount code sees — steering it onto cordis services and away from leak-prone Node built-ins and framework internals — for correctness and to close the unguarded-context escape, but the capabilities the façade exposes (`ctx.bash`, `ctx.fs`, `ctx.web`) reach the real runtime, so it is not a security boundary. A real one (separate process, permission prompts) was out of scope for a dev/opt-in toolset and would fight the entire point — handing the model the live runtime.
