The consuming shell read on master told the model where a truncated stream's complete text lived: [some output was dropped from memory; full output: <paths>]. The ring-backed read rendered a notice only for the ring's own eviction and ignored the gapBefore mark the pump puts on a chunk whose source lost bytes between two polls, so a fast producer's tail read as continuous output and no path survived. A lossy source read now carries the source's spillPath onto its gap chunk (JobSourceRead, JobAppendOptions, JobChunk), the pump forwards it, the ring retains it, and the model renderer emits master's notice for a producer-side gap or a ring eviction, listing the distinct spill files in offset order. The bash and pwsh sources already returned the subprocess reader's spillPath; the type now admits it.

shell/ — bash capability family

Summary
The shell group provides command execution to agents: run a foreground command and read its bounded output, or start a background process and poll it, on POSIX with Bash and on Windows with PowerShell. Exactly one executor implementation is mounted per composition; the sandboxing executors confine every command through the sandbox capability, and the model-facing bash and pwsh tools sit on top of whichever executor is mounted. Choose a Bash executor for POSIX, a PowerShell executor for Windows, and pick the sandboxing variant when commands need file-level confinement.

registers on ctx.tools |
tool-bash-persistent |
Runs model shell calls in one owner-isolated persistent Bash session | registers on ctx.tools |

tool-pwsh-persistent |
Runs model shell calls in one owner-isolated persistent PowerShell session | registers on ctx.tools |
A profile layer selects exactly one executor implementation (the win32 layer swaps the POSIX rows for the pwsh ones; mounting two fails loud on the duplicate service registration) and the model-facing tools it needs. A sandboxed composition also selects a ctx.sandbox provider and ctx.sandboxPolicy; the base bundle owns the shipped wiring.
