MechaCat02 5a9b75e152 agents: they never spoke, the decoder lost the disc, and both shared one state dir
Three defects, all mine, found by checking instead of assuming.

**They never exchanged a word.** SendMessage=0, ListAgents=0 across both new
sessions. PROTOCOL.md specified in detail what a message MAY and MAY NOT do and
never said how to send one or that the other agent was addressable -- they knew
that last time only because the human told them directly, and rebuilding with
fresh volumes wiped it. Policy without mechanism is prose. Now documented with
the two addresses, a worked example, and an instruction to introduce themselves
on the first iteration rather than waiting to have a question.

**The decoder lost the disc and the ISO.** They used to arrive inside the project
mount and silently stopped when /work became a clone. Silently is the word: the
disc-gated tests SELF-SKIP without SYLPHEED_DISC and report green, so a whole
test suite would have passed while measuring nothing. Both are now mounted
explicitly, the ISO at a stable path so run-canary does not depend on host
directory names.

**Both agents shared one Claude state directory.** They share the host's
~/.claude, and once both working directories became /work they resolved to the
same projects/-work/ -- two supposedly independent agents writing to one place,
which undoes the point of separate checkouts. Each now has its own volume, seeded
once from the host with credentials only, so a token refresh writes locally and
neither can corrupt the host's auth.

Also widened the pacing rule. It banned ScheduleWakeup by name; the decoder then
scheduled itself an hourly cron job -- not harmful, but the same instinct that
ended a run yesterday, through a door I had left open. Now: no self-scheduling by
any route.

Mount audit after the changes: shared and intentional are the exchange volume and
the read-only credential seed. Everything else -- repo, Claude state, cargo,
target, canary, disc, ISO -- is per agent or one-sided.

# 1. THIS REPO IS ITS OWN CLONE. It is deliberately NOT the tree the RE agent
# or a human is working in. Sharing a working tree between two writers means
# files change under whoever is mid-edit, and a `git add -A` by one sweeps up
# the other's work. That happened; do not re-create it.
#
# 2. IDENTITY GOES IN THE ENVIRONMENT, NOT `.git/config`. Writing `[user]` into
# a repo's config captures every commit made in that tree, including a
# human's. GIT_AUTHOR_*/GIT_COMMITTER_* apply to this container's commits and
# nobody else's.
