Shared parts, not a shared scheduler (agreed): nisse-review will have its
own small scheduler; a common one waits until two exist to compare.
- nisse_core.loop.driver: the driver run, moved; the agent names its
waiting tools per run (nisse-dev's are WAITING_TOOLS), and execution
goes to any Executor (ToolOutcome moves with it).
- nisse_core.loop.tools: the tool helper and the tools any agent offers
(notes, memory, memory_done, ask_expert); nisse_core.loop.expert.
- nisse_core.knowledge.handlers: Knowledge, the vault and memory as
control tools, the index and prompt text, out of LoopAgent.
- nisse_core.config: file reading, references, people, tuning sections of
the agent's own, LLM numbers, the vault.
- New core tests: a driver run with a non-workspace executor and the
agent's own waiting set; Knowledge alone; the shared config pieces.
Docs: the Development Plan marks M7.2 done; Architecture Part L and the
nisse-core README name the new parts.

What isn't the dev agent's moves to nisse-core, unchanged in behaviour,
with its tests: canonical, render, render_anthropic, llm, catalog, probe,
context, views, state, reconcile, worker, cancel, dump, transport, matrix,
execution, testing, vault, memory, oplog, envfile and gitea (whole).
- nisse_core.state.StateStore holds the tables every agent has; an
agent's subclass adds its tables (version, migrations), roles and
views. nisse_dev.state.StateStore adds the build VM blocks (v5).
- views.project takes what each role is shown, rather than a fixed table.
- Vault takes the agent's name (agent=), for provenance.
- A test that nisse_core never imports an agent.
- The loop, config, git, delegation, expert, tools and evals stay in
nisse-dev until nisse-ops has a loop to share.
Docs: the Development Plan marks M7.1 done and notes that Phase 6 waits on
the agent host and Terraform; Architecture Part L names the package.

The executor ended a milestone on any reply without a tool call, and
nothing held a model to the offered tools. Measured on the 4070:
tool_choice "required" is enforced by vLLM (local-fast) and Anthropic,
but qwen3-14b (local-coder) under it cannot stop and writes until the
output ceiling, a known model bug. So enforcement is asked for per
model, and the loop holds the contract itself everywhere.
- The catalog reads supports_tool_choice from LiteLLM's model_info;
BudgetedClient sends tool_choice only to models declared true, as
"required" on the normalized route and {"type": "any"} on the
Anthropic passthrough, and only when tools are offered
- The executor gains an explicit finish tool, the only way to end a
milestone. Finishing with nothing changed is refused once; a prose
reply gets one nudge, then escalates; a call to a tool not offered
counts toward failure_limit, like a failed command; calls after
finish are recorded as not run
- Clients record the model that actually answered. ModelFacts.answered
recognises a proxy fallback, which once credited Claude's answers to
a local model that could not call tools at all
- The context probe reports a fallback instead of trusting it; rerun,
both local models now refuse over-long prompts, as they should
- The capability matrix checks every answer came from the model asked,
that models call only offered tools, and that a declared
supports_tool_choice is true
- Spec A15 and the tuning guide say how enforcement is requested,
declared and backed up

Every turn re-sent the whole transcript with nothing checking it against
the model's window. On a local model that fails silently: Ollama drops
the start of an over-long prompt, which is where the system prompt and
the plan are. Measured on the Jetson's llama3.2, cut at 4096 tokens with
no error.
- The model catalog reads max_input_tokens and max_output_tokens from
LiteLLM's model_info, and startup refuses a role on a model with no
declared window
- BudgetedClient wraps both routes. It fits the canonical events before
rendering: older tool results cut to head and tail, then the oldest
turns dropped with a note, keeping calls with their results; a request
that still cannot fit fails with ContextOverflow and is never sent.
The output ceiling is the smaller of config and the model's limit
- Tokens are estimated from characters, pessimistically, and the
estimate is corrected from reported prompt sizes, only ever upward
- The executor takes its scope from the log: the latest plan, which is
the approved milestone plan, goes in its system prompt, and it sees
only events after it
- Tool output keeps its head and, mostly, its tail, so a test runner's
failure summary survives truncation
- tuning.context.keep_recent_turns and safety_margin are new knobs
- scripts/probe_context.py checks a declared window against what the
server does; it confirmed llama3.2 cuts at the declared 4096
- The tuning guide covers the budget, declaring a local model's limits,
and the probe
