description

Emacs daemon — org manipulation, denote notes, citar bibliography, org-agenda, arbitrary elisp. Two sockets: server (agent work), user (show file to user). Core: agent-denote-add-history(ID,CONTENT), agent-denote-add-heading(ID,TITLE,BODY) — TAG and AFTER-HEADING are both optional and combine: (ID,TITLE,TAG,BODY,AFTER-HEADING). Never pass nil. agent-denote-add-link(ID,TARGET-ID,DESC). All 3 args required.

Emacs Agent Server

Connect

ec() { emacsclient -s "${PI_EMACS_AGENT_SOCKET:-server}" --eval "${1}"; }  # agent work (${1}, not a bare positional — those get stripped when this skill is injected)
eu() { emacsclient -s user --no-wait "$@"; }  # show file to user

Define ec/eu in EVERY bash call (subshell resets).

PI_EMACS_AGENT_SOCKET is injected by entwurf when launched with --emacs-agent-socket <name> (e.g. server, /run/emacs/server for Docker). Falls back to server when unset.

API

Function	Args	Example
agent-denote-add-history	ID, CONTENT	ec '(agent-denote-add-history "ID" "@pi — msg")'
agent-denote-add-heading	ID, TITLE, BODY	ec '(agent-denote-add-heading "ID" "Title" "body")'
	ID, TITLE, TAG, BODY	ec '(agent-denote-add-heading "ID" "Title" "LLMLOG" "body")'
	ID, TITLE, BODY, AFTER-HEADING	ec '(agent-denote-add-heading "ID" "Title" "body" "보고")'
	ID, TITLE, TAG, BODY, AFTER-HEADING	ec '(agent-denote-add-heading "ID" "Title" "LLMLOG" "body" "보고")'

TAG is detected by shape — ALL-CAPS, optionally :-joined (LLMLOG:ARCHIVE). Detection is case-SENSITIVE, so a lowercase or CamelCase one-word body stays BODY (doomemacs-config f752a07; before it, case-fold-search defaulted to t and a body like "body" was silently eaten as a tag). | agent-denote-add-link | ID, TARGET-ID, DESC | ec '(agent-denote-add-link "ID1" "ID2" "desc")' ⚠️ all 3 args required (see Gotchas) | | agent-denote-set-front-matter | ID, &rest PLIST | ec '(agent-denote-set-front-matter "ID" :title "새 제목" :filetags (quote ("meta" "reasoning")) :rename t)' | | agent-denote-search | QUERY, ?TYPE(title/tag/fulltext) | ec '(agent-denote-search "term" (quote tag))' | | agent-denote-keywords | — | ec '(agent-denote-keywords)' → all tags list | | agent-denote-rename-by-front-matter | FILE | ec '(agent-denote-rename-by-front-matter "/path")' | | agent-denote-rename-bulk | DIRECTORY | ec '(agent-denote-rename-bulk "/path/")' | | agent-org-read-file | FILE | ec '(agent-org-read-file "/path")' → content string (guarded paths only) | | agent-org-get-headings | FILE, ?MAX-LEVEL | ec '(agent-org-get-headings "/path" 2)' | | agent-org-get-properties | FILE | ec '(agent-org-get-properties "/path")' → alist | | agent-org-dblock-update | FILE | ec '(agent-org-dblock-update "/path")' — ~/org/ all | | agent-org-agenda-day | ?DATE | ec '(agent-org-agenda-day "-1")' — nil=today | | agent-org-agenda-week | ?DATE | ec '(agent-org-agenda-week)' | | agent-org-agenda-tags | MATCH | ec '(agent-org-agenda-tags "commit")' | | agent-org-agenda-todos | ?PROJECT, ?PRIORITY | ec '(agent-org-agenda-todos "andenken")' | | agent-citar-lookup | QUERY, ?MAX | ec '(agent-citar-lookup "karpathy" 5)' | | agent-server-status | — | ec '(agent-server-status)' → version, uptime | | agent-being-data | ?AS-JSON | ec '(agent-being-data)' → notes/journal/garden counts |

agent-org-agenda-todos: PROJECT is level-2 heading name in Entwurf agenda (e.g. "andenken", "blog", "agent-config"). PRIORITY is "A"/"B"/"C". Both optional — nil returns all TODOs grouped by project.

For agenda/task-hub work, prefer agent-org-agenda-day/week/todos over agent-org-read-file. If the target file lives under ~/sync/org/..., agent-org-read-file may be blocked by path guards even when the file is conceptually part of the workflow. In that case:

1. use agent-org-agenda-todos first
2. use agent-org-agenda-day/week for schedule context
3. only if raw structure is still needed, fall back to shell tools (rg) instead of repeatedly calling blocked Emacs read APIs

add-heading: 3rd arg is TAG if UPPERCASE (e.g. "LLMLOG"), BODY otherwise. ⚠️ Never pass nil — body silently drops. No tag? Put body as 3rd arg directly.

set-front-matter: touches only front matter / pre-heading region.

• Supported FM keys: :title, :filetags, :description, :reference, :date, :hugo_lastmod. Missing keys are created, existing keys replaced. Unknown FM lines preserved.
• Control key: :rename t → FM 갱신 후 denote 규칙대로 파일명까지 재생성. 분리 호출 불필요. rename 실패해도 FM 는 이미 저장됨 → OK: ...; WARN: rename failed — ... 로 분리 보고.
• filetags 값: 문자열 "meta reasoning"·"meta,reasoning"·":meta:reasoning:" / 리스트 ("meta" "reasoning") 모두 허용. lowercase + alnum 검증 + sort + dedup 자동.
• reference 값: ";" 또는 "," 구분 문자열 / 리스트 둘 다 허용. 결과는 ; 구분.

# no tag — body as 3rd arg
ec '(agent-denote-add-heading "ID" "New Section" "body text here")'
# with tag — TAG then body
ec '(agent-denote-add-heading "ID" "New Section" "LLMLOG" "body text here")'
# insert after a specific heading — AFTER-HEADING is a level-1 heading title,
# and the new heading lands after that heading's whole subtree. Give the last
# real heading's title to stay in front of an archive section.
ec '(agent-denote-add-heading "ID" "New Section" "body" "After This Heading")'
# tag AND placement together — they combine, no need to hand-place with elisp
ec '(agent-denote-add-heading "ID" "New Section" "LLMLOG" "body" "After This Heading")'

# set front matter — FM only
ec '(agent-denote-set-front-matter "ID" :title "새 제목" :description "요약")'
ec '(agent-denote-set-front-matter "ID" :filetags (quote ("meta" "reasoning")) :reference "key1;key2")'

# set front matter + auto rename (원샷)
ec '(agent-denote-set-front-matter "ID" :title "정제된 제목" :filetags (quote ("ethics" "information")) :rename t)'

Arbitrary Elisp

ec accepts any elisp expression. Use for one-off org parsing or runtime extensions.

ec '(emacs-version)'
ec '(mapcar #'\''buffer-name (buffer-list))'

Notes (read if needed)

Paths

• Read: ~/org/, ~/repos/gh/, ~/repos/work/, ~/repos/3rd/ (guarded allowlist)
• Write: ~/org/botlog/, ~/repos/gh/self-tracking-data/
• Dblock update: ~/org/ (all org files)
• Denote append (add-*): ~/org/ (all denote files, append-only)
• ~/sync/org/... may be part of the real workflow but still blocked for agent-org-read-file; treat that as a known interface boundary

Daemon management

• thinkpad: cd ~/repos/gh/doomemacs-config && ./run.sh agent start|stop|restart
• oracle: ~/openclaw/emacs-agent.sh start|stop|restart
• agent-server.el 을 고치면 데몬 재시작해야 반영된다 (위 restart).
• 데몬이 hang 상태여도 ./run.sh agent restart 가 복구한다: graceful (kill-emacs) 를 5s timeout 으로 시도하고, 무응답이면 daemon PID 를 kill(→필요시 -9)한 뒤 stale socket 을 정리하고 start 한다 (bounded force-stop, 2026-07 수정). oracle emacs-agent.sh 는 별도 스크립트라 아직 수동 pkill 이 필요할 수 있다.

Gotchas — stale buffer / rename (issue #9, fixed 2026-06-24)

• add- / set-front-matter 는 매 호출 디스크에서 새로 읽는다* (stale 버퍼 폐기). 그래서 ~/org 파일을 일반 Write 도구로 직접 고친 뒤 곧바로 이 API 를 불러도 안전. 과거엔 stale 버퍼 + "file changed on disk; really edit?" 프롬프트로 데몬이 조용히 hang 했다 (DESC 누락과 무관한 hang — bbot 가 헷갈린 지점). 이제 그 케이스는 hang 대신 ERROR: ... 문자열을 돌려준다.
• 그래도 ~/org 편집의 계약(contract)은 가능하면 raw Write 가 아니라 agent-denote-* API.
• rename 은 데몬 cwd 와 무관하게 repo 안에서 git mv 한다. 과거 agent-denote-rename-* 가 데몬 cwd(예: ~/openclaw/)에 따라 ../org/... 상대경로 + .git 없는 cwd 로 git mv 를 돌려 "status 128" 으로 죽던 버그를 default-directory 고정으로 수정.
• 위 수정은 bin/agent-server.el 에 있다 → 데몬 재시작 후 유효.
• add-history 는 자동으로 [YYYY-MM-DD Day HH:MM] timestamp 를 앞에 붙인다. CONTENT 에 또 timestamp 를 넣으면 [now] [caller-time] 이 중복된다 — CONTENT 엔 timestamp 없이 메시지 본문만 넘겨라 (예: "@pi — 작업 완료" ✓, 앞에 [2026-…] ✗).
• add-link 는 표준 * 관련노트 섹션에만 넣는다 (없으면 만든다). 형제 섹션 * 관련메타(자석) · * 관련링크 · * 관련 레퍼런스 는 건드리지 않는다 — 붙여쓴 관련노트(표준) 를 못 잡고 관련 <다른말> 을 오매칭하던 2026-07 회귀는 수정됨.

Agenda

DATE format: nil=today, "-1"=yesterday, "+3"=3days, "2026-03-01"=specific date. Returns plain text: "Monday 1 April 2026\n Agent: 9:20...... commit :pi:\n Human: 13:40...... 작업 시작"

Recommended order for Entwurf/COS operation:

1. agent-org-agenda-day — today's integrated working surface
2. agent-org-agenda-todos — Entwurf task hub view by project/priority
3. agent-org-agenda-week — weekly framing
4. agent-org-read-file — only for allowed raw org files when truly needed
