#+TITLE: SKILL: Shell Actuator Agent (Universal Literate Note)
#+ID: skill-shell-actuator
#+STARTUP: content
#+FILETAGS: :shell:actuator:system:psf:

* Overview
The *Shell Actuator Agent* provides the bridge to the host operating system. It enables secure command execution while maintaining a strict security posture through whitelisting and diagnostic feedback loops.

* Phase A: Demand (PRD)
:PROPERTIES:
:STATUS: FROZEN
:END:

** 1. Purpose
Define a secure, diagnostic-rich interface for host OS interaction.

** 2. User Needs
- *Secure Actuation:* Strict whitelist of permitted commands.
- *Diagnostic Feedback:* Capture STDOUT, STDERR, and exit codes.
- *Loop Closure:* Automatic neural analysis of command results.
- *Resilience:* Graceful handling of blocked or failed commands.

** 3. Success Criteria
*** TODO Whitelist Enforcement
*** TODO Diagnostic Capture
*** TODO Result Analysis Loop

* Phase B: Blueprint (PROTOCOL)
:PROPERTIES:
:STATUS: SIGNED
:END:

** 1. Architectural Intent
Interfaces for secure system calls. State is event-driven via the core kernel bus.

** 2. Semantic Interfaces
