Without base_commit, export diffs against the current guest HEAD. If the worker ran git commit inside the VM, HEAD advanced and the diff came back empty — committed work was silently lost. With base_commit set to the head_commit from workspace.prepare, the diff uses that fixed point instead. After git add -A the index holds the full working state, so git diff --cached <base_commit> captures everything: committed deltas (HEAD moved past base) and any uncommitted changes on top, in one patch, applied with the same git apply flow. - WorkspaceExportParams gains base_commit - WorkspaceExportResult echoes back the ref actually used - CLI gains --base-commit flag - Tests assert scripts use the caller-supplied ref and that omitting it falls back to HEAD

Always run make build before commit.

Image Model
- Managed images own the full boot set: rootfs, optional work-seed, kernel, optional initrd, and optional modules.
- There is no runtime bundle and no auto-registered default image from disk paths.
default_image_nameselects a registered image only.
Config
- Config lives at
~/.config/banger/config.toml. - Firecracker comes from
PATHby default, orfirecracker_bin. - SSH uses
ssh_key_pathor an auto-managed default key at~/.config/banger/ssh/id_ed25519.
Coding Style
- Prefer small, direct Go code and standard library solutions.
- Keep shell scripts strict with
set -euo pipefail. - Use
gofmtfor Go formatting. - When a CLI accepts either an inline string or a file input, always prefer the file-based form.
- For shell commands and AI/LLM tooling, prefer passing files as input whenever the CLI allows it.
- Create temporary files as needed to follow the file-first rule.
- Examples: use
git commit -F <file>instead ofgit commit -m <message>, and use prompt files instead of inline prompt strings when invoking LLM CLIs.
Testing Guidance
- Primary automated coverage is
go test ./.... - For lifecycle changes, smoke-test with
vm create,vm ssh,vm stop, andvm delete. - If guest provisioning changes, document whether existing images must be rebuilt or recreated.
Security
- Do not commit secrets.
- VM workflows require
sudoand/dev/kvm. - The default SSH key is local configuration, not a checked-in runtime artifact.
