* Add secure mount allowlist validation
Addresses arbitrary host mount vulnerability by validating additional
mounts against an external allowlist stored at ~/.config/nanoclaw/.
This location is never mounted into containers, making it tamper-proof.
Security measures:
- Allowlist cached in memory (edits require process restart)
- Real path resolution (blocks symlink and .. traversal attacks)
- Blocked patterns for sensitive paths (.ssh, .gnupg, .aws, etc.)
- Non-main groups forced to read-only when nonMainReadOnly is true
- Container path validation prevents /workspace/extra escape

* Add mount allowlist setup to /setup skill
Interactive walkthrough that asks users:
- Whether they want agents to access external directories
- Which directories to allow (with paths)
- Read-write vs read-only for each
- Whether non-main groups should be restricted to read-only
Creates ~/.config/nanoclaw/mount-allowlist.json based on answers.

- Add TIMEZONE config using system timezone for cron expressions
- Filter bot messages by content prefix instead of is_from_me
(user shares WhatsApp account with bot)

52+ modules, 8 config files, 45+ deps, 15 channel providers.
Security is application-level (allowlists) vs actual container isolation.

- Sync group names from WhatsApp via groupFetchAllParticipating()
- Store group names in chats table (jid -> name mapping)
- Daily sync with 24h cache, on-demand refresh via IPC
- Write available_groups.json snapshot for agent (main group only)
- Agent can request refresh_groups via IPC if group not found
- Update documentation in main CLAUDE.md and debug skill

Scheduled tasks can now run in either:
- "group" mode: uses the group's conversation session for context
- "isolated" mode: runs with a fresh session (previous behavior)
The tool description guides the agent on when to use each mode and
prompts them to ask the user if unclear. Group mode is now the default.

- PR #10: Add sentinel markers for robust JSON parsing between container
and host. Fallback to last-line parsing for backwards compatibility.
- PR #5: Look up target JID from registeredGroups instead of trusting
IPC payload, fixing cross-group scheduled tasks getting wrong chat_jid.
- PR #8: Add lightweight schedule validation in container MCP that
returns errors to agents (cron syntax, positive interval, valid ISO
timestamp). Also defensive validation on host side.

Previously, lastAgentTimestamp was updated regardless of whether
runAgent succeeded or failed. This caused messages to be skipped
on retry after a failure since they were already marked as processed.
Now the timestamp is only advanced when the agent returns a valid
response, ensuring failed messages will be included in the next retry.

Previously, lastTimestamp was advanced before processing messages.
If processMessage threw an error, those messages would be skipped
on the next tick since the timestamp had already moved past them.
Now we advance lastTimestamp after each message is successfully
processed (or after catching an error), ensuring no messages are
lost on retry.

Replace environment-specific fallback '/Users/gavriel' with os.homedir()
and proper error handling. The new getHomeDir() helper function:
- First checks process.env.HOME
- Falls back to os.homedir() for cross-platform support
- Throws a clear error if home directory cannot be determined
https://claude.ai/code/session_011Cs2FWxXMvAdAh4w9A6AZC
Each container now gets its own IPC directory (/data/ipc/{groupFolder}/)
instead of a shared global directory. Identity is determined by which
directory a request came from, not by self-reported data in IPC files.
Authorization enforced:
- send_message: only to chatJids belonging to the source group
- schedule_task: only for the source group (main can target any)
- pause/resume/cancel_task: only for tasks owned by source group

Previously, the entire .env file was copied and mounted into containers,
exposing all environment variables to the agent. Now only the specific
authentication variables needed by Claude Code (CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN
and ANTHROPIC_API_KEY) are extracted and mounted.

Delete child records (task_run_logs) before parent (scheduled_tasks) to avoid foreign key constraint violation when cancelling tasks.
