+// and the Stop hook's terminal-tool tracking (docker/scripts/stop-hook.sh) to
+// opencode's tool.execute.{before,after}. The in-container SDK server
+// (roboco.agent_sdk.server, :9000) is the same long-lived process the Claude
+// path runs — the grok entrypoint starts it before `opencode run`. The flow/do
+// MCP servers already POST /verb/attempted to it for the per-verb circuit
+// breaker, so starting it + this feed restores the budget/loop/terminal cluster
+// on Grok (Claude-parity, the CEO's "create what's missing" call).
+//
+//   before: read /budget/status and DENY (throw) on a hard halt, or a loop with
+//           loop_action=halt. opencode has no PostToolUse-deny, so the pre-exec
+//           gate is the only place to stop a runaway one-shot run from burning
+//           the cost cap mid-turn. The loop trips one call later than Claude
+//           (record is in `after`) but still halts the burn.
+//   after:  record the executed tool on /terminal/tool_recorded (so a graceful
+//           terminal verb is recognized) and /budget/tool_called (advances the
+//           breaker/loop counters and feeds the post-exit post-mortem).
+//
+// Fail-open everywhere: a missing / slow / non-2xx SDK never blocks the agent.
+// The interactive serve images (intake / secretary) own :9000 for the human-turn
