+
+Orchestrates the complete lifecycle:
+  1. Identifies the most urgent beneficiary agent in need of tokens (blocked first, then lowest balance).
+  2. Provisions infrastructure (WireGuard, dedicated netns, CDP port, chrome-box profile).
+  3. Launches authentication via cred_client / onboard-driver.
+  4. Waits for / accepts OTP code.
+  5. Checks age verification gate (Tailscale portal / Instagram link).
+  6. Automatically redeems the urgent agent's invite code on the newly onboarded node.
+  7. Injects operational DRIVE and marks the node active.
+  8. Can dispatch cryptographically signed work orders ([WO]) to prompting sidechats.

+# hatch_menu — Modular Settings-Menu Navigation + Toggles
+
+`bin/hatch_menu/` drives the muse.ai Settings menu in the agent
+browsers. One module per part: a site change means patching one file.
+Exposed as `box chromebox permissions ...`; `bin/invite.py` usage
+reads ride the same tree.
+
+## Layout
+
+```text
+bin/hatch_menu/
+  __init__.py      package surface (dialog + mouse + toggles fns)
+  mouse.py         trusted input: real_click, escape, close, MouseError
+  dialog.py        open_settings (retried), goto_tab, click_row,
+                   describe_rows, go_back, dialog_text, TAB_NAMES
+  controls.py      radio/switch list + set (verify, else trusted
+                   click, verify again)
+  toggles.py       toggle registry + sessions: resolve/get/set/list,
+                   describe_tab, MenuError
+  tabs/
+    __init__.py    TAB_MODULES (10 tabs, uniform describe(ws))
+    permissions.py defaults radios, website modes, protocols,
+                   advanced switches, counts, tasks
+    general.py     usage parse, theme, redeem entrypoint
+    data_controls.py  model-improvement switch (rest read-only)
+    connectors|wallet|secure_store|messaging|devices|
+      help_support|legal.py  read-only inventories
+```
+
+Dependency order (no cycles): `mouse` <- `dialog` <- `controls`
+<- `tabs/*` <- `toggles`. Tab modules own their contracts
+(headings, labels, slugs, modes); `toggles.py` only addresses them.
+
+## Toggle addresses
+
+Static: `permissions.connector_defaults`,
+`permissions.web_access` (`auto_allow`/`always_ask`);
+`permissions.advanced.transparent_proxy|tls_interception|
+sni_mismatch_rejection`, `data_controls.ai_improvement` (`on`/`off`);
+`general.theme` (match/default/blue/purple/pink/orange/green/
+beige/monochrome).
+
+Families: `permissions.websites:<host>` (`Allow`/`Ask`/`Deny`),
+`permissions.protocols:<slug>` (`on`/`off`; slugs discovered live,
+e.g. `mcp-sse`, `mcp-streamable`, `agent-skills`, `mcp-apps`,
+`mcp-oauth`).
+
+Every `set` verifies in place and reads back through a fresh
+session; readback mismatch reports failure, never partial success.
+Caller errors (unknown node/toggle/tab/value) raise `MenuError`
+before any CDP traffic. Transport failures return `{"ok": False}`.
+
+## CLI
+
+```bash
+box chromebox permissions <node> list [--tab TAB] [--json]
+box chromebox permissions <node> get <toggle> [--json]
+box chromebox permissions <node> set <toggle> <value> [--json]
+box chromebox permissions <node> describe <tab>   # JSON inventory
+```
+
+Exit 2 on caller errors, 1 on transport/unreadable toggles.
+
+## Patch guide
+
+| Site change | Patch |
+|---|---|
+| Dock button / dialog open flow | `dialog.py` (`open_settings`) |
+| Radio/switch mechanics | `controls.py` |
+| Permissions headings, modes, slugs, adv labels | `tabs/permissions.py` |
+| Usage text, theme values | `tabs/general.py` |
+| Data-controls switch label | `tabs/data_controls.py` |
+| New settable toggle | tab module contract + `toggles.py` registry row |
+| Trusted-click transport | `mouse.py` |
+
+`describe <tab>` dumps a tab's live inventory for debugging.
+
+## Provenance
+
+Contracts come from live read-only DOM recon (2026-10-06):
+Permissions radios `auto_allow`/`always_ask`, Websites Allow/Ask/
+Deny chooser (real click to open), 8 protocol switches, Advanced
+section (Transparent proxy off, TLS interception off, SNI mismatch
+rejection on), Data-controls single switch, General theme radios.
+Radix menus need real `Input.dispatchMouseEvent` press+release with
+monotonic CDP ids; synthetic clicks fail. Recon never touches Reset.
+
+## Tests
+
+`tests/test_hatch_menu.py` (mocked CDP, per-module):
+mouse/trusted-clicks, dialog open-retry/tab/row flows, control
+verify-then-fallback, registry resolution + readback mismatch,
+tab contracts on live-captured fixtures. `tests/test_invite.py`
+covers the invite shims + flat usage parse.

+# Invite Code + Usage Handler
+
+`bin/invite.py` drives Muse.ai invite codes and usage limits through
+the agent browsers, exposed as `box invite` / `box usage`.
+
+## Flows
+
+- **Find** (`get_invite`): `GET /api/hatch/invite` via in-page fetch
+  (primary), falling back to the main-chat Invite popover parse
+  (`hatch-invite-friends-button` -> `[data-slot="popover-content"]`
+  -> `Invite code revealed: XXXXXX`) when the API fails.
+- **Redeem** (`redeem_invite`): `POST /api/hatch/invite-code/redeem`
+  `{code, supportsRedemptionStatus: true}` via in-page fetch.
+  Server reasons pass through verbatim: `already_redeemed`,
+  `invalid`, `used_up`, `revoked`, `window_expired`,
+  `rate_limited`, `unavailable`, `unknown`.
+- **Usage** (`get_usage`): Settings > General DOM read through the
+  `hatch_menu` tree (`dialog` open/tab/text + `tabs/general.py`
+  parse, adapted to the flat CLI keys). Real mouse events open the
+  radix dock menu (`hatch-dock-more`; synthetic clicks do not work),
+  then the `settings_nav_click` item, then the General tab.
+
+`open_settings()` / `click_settings_tab()` are public shims over
+`hatch_menu.dialog` (single copy; see `docs/HATCH-MENU.md`).
+
+## Eligibility & Lifecycle (observed live, 2026-10-06)
+
+- One redemption per account (`already_redeemed`).
+- 48h window from joining (`window_expired`).
+- Codes carry limited uses (`used_up`, e.g. 30) and can be revoked.
+- Inviter rewards accrue regardless of the inviter's own redemption
+  state (opm earned 4B from 4 redemptions while already redeemed).
+- When account B redeems account A's code: BOTH accounts immediately
+  receive 1 billion Muse tokens.
+
+## UI Quirks & Binary Attribution
+
+- **Redeem field disappearance**: In Settings > General, the `Redeem invite code`
+  item is only present for fresh accounts (< 48 hours, has not redeemed). Once
+  redeemed, the field disappears completely and is replaced by the `Additional tokens`
+  ticker bar (`Never expires / X% used`).
+- **Asynchronous DOM Loading**: In the React/Radix UI tree, usage statistics and the
+  redeem button render asynchronously after the dialog opens. RPA drivers must poll
+  briefly for usage text and progress bars rather than evaluating on the first tick.
+
+## Onboarding & Feeding Pipeline (`box onboard`)
+
+To feed token-deprived or blocked agents, the fleet automates onboarding of fresh client profiles:
+- **`box onboard feed-matrix`**: Lists all agents ranked by composite feeding weight:
+  `Urgency (Blocked/Limit) + Work Done Over Time (cumulative messages processed) + Active Job Volume + Role Criticality`.
+- **`box onboard start <new_node> --email <client_email> [--for <agent>]`**:
+  Provisions WireGuard tunnel, dedicated netns (`warp-<node>`), chrome-box profile,
+  initiates headless login, and queues the top-ranked beneficiary's invite code.
+- **`box onboard submit-otp <node> <otp>`**:
+  Submits transient verification code; once the session is active, automatically
+  redeems the queued code in Settings, granting 1B tokens to both agents, and injects operational DRIVE.
+- **`box onboard salvage-wo <node>`**:
+  Dispatches a cryptographically signed Work Order (`[WO]`) to the prompting sidechat.
+- **Loop Modulation**: `InputType.SALVAGE` is registered in `box loop strat` with `CRITICAL` priority,
+  600s timeout, and 3 auto-nudges escalating to `opm`.
+
+## Fleet State (2026-10-06)
+
+- `646`: Unblocked! Restored via `dev`'s redemption of `REDCJ7`. Currently ~1B tokens banked.
+- `dev`: Redeemed `REDCJ7`, currently ~1B tokens banked.
+- `def`: Active, 0 redemptions (`A4OS1F`, window expired).
+- `muse`: ~925M tokens banked (`81MDIR`).
+- `pip`: ~897M tokens banked (`F4BGHN`).
+- `opm`: 3.5B tokens banked (`14OGF2`, 4 friends redeemed).
