🛠️ L3 Tool Execution - Architecture Plan

The Challenge

Claude CLI tools (Read, Grep, Glob) are NOT an HTTP API - they're internal to Claude's subprocess. We need to build a proxy layer to expose them safely.

🏛️ Recommended Architecture

Browser (kontask.tools.read)
    ↓
Konui Proxy (/api/tools/read)
    ↓
Konsole Tool Endpoints (NEW)
    ↓
Deno Runtime (fs, glob, grep)

Tools execute in Deno directly (not through Claude CLI) for speed and simplicity.

✅ Safe Tools to Expose (Read-Only)

ToolEndpointSafeguards
ReadPOST /tools/readPath ACL, size limit (1MB)
GlobPOST /tools/globPath ACL, result limit (100)
GrepPOST /tools/grepPath ACL, regex validation, timeout

⛔ NOT Exposed (Dangerous)

  • Edit/Write - Modifies source code (requires approval workflow)
  • Bash - Arbitrary command execution (requires allowlist)

🔐 Security Model

  • Path ACL: Only /konnectvol/ prefix allowed
  • Auth: Requires valid session token
  • Rate limit: 10 requests/second per session
  • Size limits: Max 1MB per file, 100 results per glob
  • Audit: All calls logged with session/kontask ID

💻 Client SDK Design

// In kontask inline script
const file = await kontask.tools.read('/konnectvol/konui/src/main.ts');
const files = await kontask.tools.glob('**/*.ts');
const matches = await kontask.tools.grep('TODO', { path: '/konnectvol' });

Implementation Phases

PhaseWorkEffort
1Add konsole tool endpoints (Read only)~1 hour
2Add konui proxy + client SDK~30 min
3Add Glob + Grep endpoints~1 hour
4Test with interactive kontask~30 min

❓ Decision Needed

Should we proceed with this architecture? Start with Read-only, add Glob/Grep later?
