 ### Python venv
-All Python code runs inside `Promethean/` (a local venv). Always activate it before running backend commands: `source Promethean/bin/activate`. Dependencies are layered: `requirements-base.txt` holds the GPU-agnostic core (nothing in it needs a GPU or imports torch), and a thin overlay per platform sets the right PyTorch package index — `requirements-amd.txt` (ROCm), `requirements-nvidia.txt` (CUDA, generated by `bin/gen-nvidia-reqs.py`), or `requirements-windows.txt` (CPU-only, standalone). `bin/sync.py` (`requirements()`) selects NVIDIA, AMD, CPU/Windows, or — via an explicit `sys.platform == "darwin"` check, since `os.name` alone can't tell macOS apart from Linux — `requirements-base.txt` with no overlay at all for macOS, from the host, and installs that alone by default — fast, no multi-GB downloads.

 `requirements-ml.txt` is a separate, **opt-in** overlay for local ML inference (transformers/accelerate/bitsandbytes + torch/torchaudio/torchvision) — nothing in `synapse/` imports any of it; Ollama does all inference over HTTP. Only pull it in for local model work outside Ollama: `pip install -r requirements-amd.txt -r requirements-ml.txt` (or `-nvidia`, or alone for CPU-only torch).

 ### Frontend (`interface/web/`)
 React 19 + Vite. No routing library — `App.jsx` manages page state in a single `currentPage` useState. All API calls hit `http://localhost:8000` (configured in `src/config.js`). Built to `dist/` (gitignored) via `npm run build` and served by the backend at `:8000` — the mount is in `synapse/main.py` (`_DIST` at `/`, guarded by `is_dir()`), so `dist/` must be built for the UI to appear. Pages: Chatbot, Playbook editor, Conversation History, Models, Memory, Settings, Logs.
 
-### Code Tracks (`synapse/tools.py` + `synapse/code_run.py`)
-
-Two separate tools, split by *where the code runs*:
-
-- **`render_preview`** — validates markup and returns a fence the chat renders in
-  an opaque-origin `sandbox="allow-scripts"` iframe. Nothing executes
-  server-side. Languages: `PREVIEW_LANGS` in `synapse/tools.py`, mirrored by
-  `interface/web/src/preview/languages.js`.
-- **`run_snippet`** — compiles and runs a single file on the host via
-  `synapse/code_run.py`, and returns a ```nexus-run fence carrying the source and
-  its captured output. Languages: `RUN_LANGS` in `synapse/code_run.py`, mirrored
-  by `interface/web/src/preview/run-langs.js`.
-
-Each pair of registries is asserted equal by `tests/test_tools.py` — nothing
-couples them at runtime, so drift fails the check gate instead of silently
-degrading in the chat.
-
-`run_snippet` is an **action tool**: `action_tool_policy` gates it (`off` by
-default, `ask` = per-call Approve/Deny in chat). Read the `code_run.py` module
-docstring before touching it — it runs code as the current user and is explicit
-about which of its five layers are load-bearing and which are only a tripwire.
-
 ### Persistent Storage
 Most data lands in `synapse/memory/memory.db` (SQLite, WAL mode). Tables: memory facts, conversations, messages, app settings. `synapse/memory/store.py` (`PersistentMemoryStore`) owns the schema and all queries. Playbooks are the exception — they live as YAML files in `data/playbooks/` (see Playbook System). `nexus_config.py` defines all paths; it also ensures all required directories exist on import.

-"""Run a short code snippet in an ephemeral working directory.
-
-This is the *second* track of the code-preview feature and deliberately not the
-first. `render_preview` (synapse/tools.py) executes nothing server-side: it
-validates markup and the chat UI renders it inside an opaque-origin iframe.
-That model fits HTML/SVG/JSX and cannot fit C, Rust or Erlang, which need a real
-toolchain. So those go through here instead, and the result is shown as terminal
-output rather than a rendered document.
-
-WHAT THIS IS NOT
-----------------
-Not a security sandbox. Snippets run as the current user on the host. What this
-module actually provides is *containment by limits*, layered:
-
-  1. Consent      run_snippet is an ACTION tool, so it is withheld entirely
-                  unless `action_tool_policy` is "ask"/"allow" — and on "ask"
-                  every call waits for the user's Approve/Deny in chat.
-  2. Screening    `critique` rejects the obvious-abuse shapes (sockets, process
-                  spawning, absolute paths) before anything is written to disk.
-  3. Isolation    cwd is a fresh temp dir that is deleted afterwards; home and
-                  temp environment variables point at it; the environment is
-                  scrubbed to a small allowlist.
-  4. Limits       wall-clock timeout, RLIMIT_CPU/AS/FSIZE/NPROC on POSIX,
-                  truncated output.
-  5. Network      on Linux, `unshare -rn` when unprivileged user namespaces are
-                  available (probed once, see `_net_isolation`). Nowhere else —
-                  macOS and Windows get no network isolation at all.
-
-Layer 2 is a tripwire, not a boundary: arbitrary Python can evade any regex
-trivially. It exists to catch a model that reaches for `requests` by habit, not
-an adversary. The load-bearing layers are 1 and 3–5. Anyone wanting a real
-boundary should run this under a container or a VM; that is a deployment
-decision this module does not make for them.

-
-WHAT THIS IS NOT
-----------------
-Not a way to skip human review. Every function here is either read-only
-(the `preview_*`/`diff_text` functions, safe to call before anything is
-approved) or is only ever reached after the per-call approval round-trip in
-chat.py — and `edit_playbook`/`edit_settings`/`edit_source` are *always*
-gated that way, regardless of the global `action_tool_policy` setting (see
-`ALWAYS_ASK_TOOLS`). This module is the mechanism the approval actually acts
-on, layered:
-
-  1. Consent      edit_* tools are ACTION tools with a hardcoded approval
-                  floor — chat.py pauses for Approve/Deny even when the
-                  global policy is "allow", so flipping that setting for an
-                  unrelated tool (web_search, say) can never silently unlock
-                  unattended self-modification too.
-  2. Real diff    the human reviews a diff computed here, server-side, from
-                  what is actually on disk versus the model's proposed
-                  `new_content` — never a diff or description the model wrote
-                  itself. A model can misdescribe a change; it cannot make
-                  difflib misreport one.
-  3. Boundary     edit_source is confined to one root (settings.project_root)
-                  via the same realpath + `Path.parents` check that closed a
-                  sibling-directory bypass in main.py's /icons/image, plus a
-                  denylist of dangerous subtrees inside that root (.git, the
-                  venv, node_modules, build output, runtime state).
-  4. Audit trail  every applied source edit is committed to git (best-effort;
-                  a missing git binary or a non-repo root degrades the result
-                  to `commit: None`, it never blocks the write). This is a
-                  reversibility net, not a substitute for layer 1 — the
-                  approval already happened before anything is written.
-  5. Size caps    MAX_FILE_CHARS/MAX_DIFF_CHARS bound what a single call can
-                  submit or what the approval UI has to render, mirroring
-                  code_run.py's MAX_SOURCE/MAX_OUTPUT.
-
-A file edit does not hot-reload the running process. Python does not re-import
-a changed module on its own, and the frontend's production build is the static
-`dist/` the backend serves — editing interface/web/src/*.jsx only affects a
-developer's own `npm run dev` session, if one happens to be running. Every
-successful edit_source result says so explicitly, because both the model and
-the human reviewing it will otherwise reasonably expect an instant effect that
-does not happen.
