Moves the stateless helpers of the image subsystem into
internal/daemon/imagemgr:
paths.go — path validators (ValidateRegisterPaths,
ValidatePromotePaths), artifact staging (StageBootArtifacts,
StageOptionalArtifactPath), metadata (BuildMetadataPackages,
WritePackagesMetadata).
build.go — ResizeRootfs, WriteBuildLog, and the full guest
provisioning script generator (BuildProvisionScript, BuildModulesCommand
and all private script-append helpers) along with the mise/tmux/opencode
version constants.
The orchestrator methods (BuildImage, RegisterImage, PromoteImage,
DeleteImage, runImageBuildNative) stay on *Daemon: they still touch
d.store, d.imageOpsMu, d.beginOperation, capability hooks, and
fcproc-wrapped Daemon helpers — extracting them needs prerequisite
phases (operation protocol, workdisk helpers, tap pool). This commit is
strictly the pure-helper extraction that can land cleanly today.
imagebuild.go shrinks from 453 -> 225 LOC (half gone). images.go shrinks
from 450 -> 374 LOC. imagebuild_test.go updated to call the exported
imagemgr.BuildProvisionScript. Zero behavior change; all tests green.

Provisioning was still installing `claude` and `pi` through a separate
npm-global prefix even after the guest images had switched to `mise` for
Node and opencode. That left two competing install paths and made the
runtime layout harder to reason about.
Switch the Debian and Void image setup flows to install `claude` and `pi`
as `mise` npm tools, assert their shims exist after `mise reshim`, and
symlink `node`, `npm`, `opencode`, `claude`, and `pi` directly from the
mise shim directory into `/usr/local/bin`.
Update the imagebuild test expectations and bump the Void rootfs default
size to 4G so the larger default toolset still fits reliably.
Add daemon-backed workspace and guest-session primitives so host
orchestrators can prepare /root/repo, launch long-lived guest commands,
and attach to pipe-mode sessions over the local stdio mux bridge.
Persist richer session metadata and launch diagnostics, preflight guest
cwd/command requirements, make pipe-mode attach rehydratable from guest
state after daemon restart, and allow submodules when workspace prepare
runs in full_copy mode.
At the same time, stop vm run from auto-attaching opencode, make it
print next-step commands instead, and make glibc guest images more
agent-ready by installing node, opencode, claude, and pi while syncing
opencode/claude/pi auth files into work disks on VM start.
Validation:
- GOCACHE=/tmp/banger-gocache go test ./...
- make build
- banger vm workspace prepare --help
- banger vm session --help
- banger vm session start --help
- banger vm session attach --help
Stop relying on ad hoc rootfs handling by adding image promotion, managed work-seed fingerprint metadata, and lazy self-healing for older managed images after the first create.
Rebuild guest images with baked SSH access, a guest NIC bootstrap, and default opencode services, and add the staged Void kernel/initramfs/modules workflow so void-exp uses a matching Void boot stack.
Replace the opaque blocking vm.create RPC with a begin/status flow that prints live stages in the CLI while still waiting for vsock health and opencode on guest port 4096.
Validate with GOCACHE=/tmp/banger-gocache go test ./... and live void-exp create/delete smoke runs.
Make iterating on a Firecracker-friendly Void guest practical without replacing the Debian default image path.
Add local Void rootfs build/register/verify plumbing, a language-agnostic dev package baseline, and guest SSH/work-disk hardening so new images use the runtime bundle key, keep a normal root bash environment, and repair stale nested /root layouts on restart.
Replace the guest PING/PONG responder with an HTTP /healthz agent over vsock, rename the runtime bundle and config surface from ping helper to agent while still accepting the legacy keys, and route the post-SSH reminder through the new vm.health path.
Validated with GOCACHE=/tmp/banger-gocache go test ./..., make build, bash -n customize.sh make-rootfs-void.sh, and git diff --check.
Remind users when a VM is still running after hanger vm ssh exits instead of silently dropping them back to the host shell.\n\nAttach a Firecracker vsock device to each VM, persist the host vsock path/CID,\nadd a new guest-side banger-vsock-pingd responder to the runtime bundle and both\nimage-build paths, and expose a vm.ping RPC that the CLI and TUI call after SSH\nreturns. Doctor and start/build preflight now validate the helper plus\n/dev/vhost-vsock so the feature fails early and clearly.\n\nValidated with go mod tidy, bash -n customize.sh, git diff --check, make build,\nand GOCACHE=/tmp/banger-gocache go test ./... outside the sandbox because the\ndaemon tests need real Unix/UDP sockets. Rebuild the image/rootfs used for new\nVMs so the guest ping service is present.
New VMs should come up with tmux session persistence ready instead of requiring per-VM plugin setup, and rebuilt images should stop carrying stale Docker installer scraps.
Configure both image build paths to install TPM, tmux-resurrect, and tmux-continuum for root, manage a marked /root/.tmux.conf block with autosave enabled and restore left manual, and remove legacy get-docker helper files during provisioning.
Update the README and repo guidance to document the rebuilt-image behavior. Verified with bash -n customize.sh, GOCACHE=/tmp/banger-gocache go test ./internal/daemon -run TestBuildProvisionScriptInstallsDefaultTools, and GOCACHE=/tmp/banger-gocache make build.
Extend the default image provisioning path so opencode is installed through mise as part of both the Go-native image builder and the shell-based rootfs customization flow. That keeps new images consistent regardless of which build path produced them.
The change reuses the existing mise activation setup instead of adding a second tool bootstrap path, and adds a provisioning-script assertion so the generated guest setup includes the opencode install step.
Verified with bash -n customize.sh and go test ./....
New VMs should have mise available without a per-VM bootstrap step, and the activation needs to work in the default root bash workflow.
Install a pinned mise binary during both the Go-native image build path and the customize.sh rootfs rebuild path, then enable bash activation through /etc/profile.d for login shells and /etc/bash.bashrc for interactive shells.
Add a regression around the generated provisioning script and validate with bash -n customize.sh, go test ./..., and make build. Rebuilding the default rootfs is still required before future default-image VMs pick up the change.
