Two follow-ups from the canary red->green run and scooby's review.
1. The v2 refusal in `add`/`remove` was a bare `throw`, which reaches the CLI
top level uncaught and prints the guidance under a Node stack trace. The
message *is* the point of the refusal, so it now goes through
`command.error()` — the same clean path the roster-config error uses.
Caught on canary, not in review: the unit tests asserted the message text
and passed either way.
2. The unit-template test asserted only that ConditionPathExists is present.
Presence is not effect. Added two tests for the parts that can drift in
code while that assertion still passes: the condition resolving to exactly
the file the fleet writes (%h/%i rendered against a real install), and the
launcher genuinely failing on an absent generated env (exit 64,
`missing-file`) — which is what makes the condition load-bearing rather
than decorative.
systemd is not available in the suite, so the effect itself was measured on
canary (2026-08-16), roster v2 generation 3:
with the condition: start rc=0, Result=success, ConditionResult=no,
journal "skipped, unmet condition check"
condition removed by
drop-in, nothing else: start rc=1, Result=exit-code, ExecMainStatus=64,
unit failed, "agent environment rejected: missing-file"
Canary red->green for the three commands, same v2 roster, side by side:
fleet ps 0.0.50-next.2413 rc=1 -> branch rc=0 (3 agents listed)
fleet install 0.0.50-next.2413 rc=1 -> branch rc=0
fleet remove <name> 0.0.50-next.2413 rc=1 -> branch rc=1, refusal naming
delete + apply
All three previously failed with "Fleet roster has unknown field(s):
generation." The #791 negative was measured too: the six existing
*.env.generated files were untouched by `install` (mtimes 20+ minutes older
than the run).
Gates: typecheck 0, eslint 0, prettier clean, fleet specs 382 passed, new spec
10/10 with the fix and 9/10 red against origin/next (the 10th passes there for
an unrelated reason and is annotated as such). Full suite: only
mutator-gate.acceptance.spec.ts fails, pre-existing on origin/next.
Still true and still worth saying: a correct fix here shows install rc=0 and
start rc=0 and STILL no live seat. #1240 (tmux absent) is upstream, #1241
(start reports lifecycle-complete over dead panes) and the missing agent
runtime are downstream.

CLI package for the Mosaic self-hosted AI agent platform.
Usage
mosaic wizard # First-run setup wizard
mosaic gateway install # Install the gateway daemon
mosaic config show # View current configuration
mosaic config hooks list # Manage Claude hooks
Headless / CI Installation
Set MOSAIC_ASSUME_YES=1 (or ensure stdin is not a TTY) to skip all interactive prompts. The following environment variables control the install:
Gateway configuration (mosaic gateway install)
| Variable | Default | Required |
|---|---|---|
MOSAIC_STORAGE_TIER |
local |
No |
MOSAIC_GATEWAY_PORT |
14242 |
No |
MOSAIC_DATABASE_URL |
(none) | Yes if tier=team |
MOSAIC_VALKEY_URL |
(none) | Yes if tier=team |
MOSAIC_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY |
(none) | No |
MOSAIC_CORS_ORIGIN |
http://localhost:3000 |
No |
Admin user bootstrap
| Variable | Default | Required |
|---|---|---|
MOSAIC_ADMIN_NAME |
(none) | Yes (headless) |
MOSAIC_ADMIN_EMAIL |
(none) | Yes (headless) |
MOSAIC_ADMIN_PASSWORD |
(none) | Yes (headless) |
MOSAIC_ADMIN_PASSWORD must be at least 8 characters. In headless mode a missing or too-short password causes a non-zero exit.
Example: Docker / CI install
export MOSAIC_ASSUME_YES=1
export MOSAIC_ADMIN_NAME="Admin"
export MOSAIC_ADMIN_EMAIL="[email protected]"
export MOSAIC_ADMIN_PASSWORD="securepass123"
mosaic gateway install
Runtime launchers
mosaic claude # Launch Claude Code with Mosaic injection
mosaic yolo claude # …with --dangerously-skip-permissions
mosaic codex | opencode | pi
mosaic claudex (EXPERIMENTAL)
Runs GPT models inside the Claude Code harness by pointing Claude Code at a
local claude-code-proxy that
translates the Anthropic Messages API to a ChatGPT-subscription (Codex OAuth)
backend. This is not Anthropic Claude — model behavior, tool use, and output
quality may differ. Intended for evaluation, not production delivery.
mosaic claudex # launch (prompts through the proxy readiness gate)
mosaic yolo claudex # …with --dangerously-skip-permissions
mosaic claudex --print "hello" # trailing args are forwarded to Claude Code
Prerequisite: the claude-code-proxy binary must be installed and
authenticated (claude-code-proxy codex auth …). mosaic claudex runs a
preflight that verifies the binary, the OAuth state (triggering a device re-auth
if needed), and a trusted local listener before launching; it fails closed
if the proxy cannot be brought up with a verified identity.
Isolation (never touches your real Claude state). claudex always launches
against an isolated CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR (default ~/.config/mosaic/claudex/home).
The ambient CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR is deliberately ignored, and a guard proves the
resolved dir can never be — or live under — the real ~/.claude. A claudex
session therefore cannot mutate your normal Claude Code config.
No token leakage. claudex never reads the proxy's credential file. Claude
Code is handed only ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN=unused pointed at the loopback proxy;
the entire credential-bearing env family (ANTHROPIC_*, AWS_*, GOOGLE_CLOUD_*,
GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS, *_TOKEN, *_KEY, *_SECRET, …) is stripped
from the composed environment. The Bedrock/Vertex routing switches
(CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK, CLAUDE_CODE_USE_VERTEX, and the _SKIP_*_AUTH
pair) are force-removed regardless of value — otherwise their mere presence
would route Claude Code to the real Anthropic API via AWS/GCP and bypass the
proxy. The proxy holds the real OAuth credential.
Model tiers (override via env).
| Tier | Env var | Default |
|---|---|---|
| primary (opus/sonnet) | ANTHROPIC_MODEL |
gpt-5.6-sol |
| small/fast (haiku) | ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL |
gpt-5.6-luna |
Operator-provided values win over the defaults. Additional overrides:
MOSAIC_CLAUDEX_CONFIG_DIR (isolated config dir), ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL (proxy
endpoint).
Hooks management
After running mosaic wizard, Claude hooks are installed in ~/.claude/hooks-config.json.
mosaic config hooks list # Show all hooks and enabled/disabled status
mosaic config hooks disable PostToolUse # Disable a hook (reversible)
mosaic config hooks enable PostToolUse # Re-enable a disabled hook
Set CLAUDE_HOME to override the default ~/.claude directory.
