+# EPIC-202: Build Claw-Architecture Agent
+
+**Status:** In Progress  
+**Priority:** P0  
+**Milestone:** M1: Core Architecture  
+**Created:** 2026-03-31  
+**Author:** Allegro  
+
+---
+
+## Objective
+
+Create a NEW autonomous agent using architectural patterns from [Claw Code](http://143.198.27.163:3000/Timmy/claw-code), integrated with Gitea for real work dispatch.
+
+## Problem Statement
+
+**Allegro-Primus is IDLE.**
+- Gateway running (PID 367883) but zero meaningful output
+- No Gitea issues created
+- No PRs submitted
+- No actual work completed
+
+This agent will **replace** Allegro-Primus with real capabilities.
+
+---
+
+## Claw Patterns to Adopt
+
+### 1. ToolPermissionContext
+```python
+@dataclass
+class ToolPermissionContext:
+    deny_tools: set[str]
+    deny_prefixes: tuple[str, ...]
+    
+    def blocks(self, tool_name: str) -> bool:
+        return tool_name in self.deny_tools or \
+               any(tool_name.startswith(p) for p in self.deny_prefixes)
+```
+
+**Why:** Fine-grained tool access control vs Hermes basic approval
+
+### 2. ExecutionRegistry
+```python
+class ExecutionRegistry:
+    def command(self, name: str) -> CommandHandler
+    def tool(self, name: str) -> ToolHandler
+    def execute(self, context: PermissionContext) -> Result
+```
+
+**Why:** Clean routing vs Hermes model-decided routing
+
+### 3. Session Persistence
+```python
+@dataclass
+class RuntimeSession:
+    prompt: str
+    context: PortContext
+    history: HistoryLog
+    persisted_path: str
+```
+
+**Why:** JSON-based sessions vs SQLite - more portable, inspectable
+
+### 4. Bootstrap Graph
+```python
+def build_bootstrap_graph() -> Graph:
+    # Setup phases
+    # Context building  
+    # System init messages
+```
+
+**Why:** Structured initialization vs ad-hoc setup
+

+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+### Phase 1: Core Architecture (2 days)
+- [ ] Create new Hermes profile: `claw-agent`
+- [ ] Implement ToolPermissionContext
+- [ ] Create ExecutionRegistry
+- [ ] Build Session persistence layer
+
+### Phase 2: Gitea Integration (2 days)
+- [ ] Gitea client with issue querying
+- [ ] Work scheduler for autonomous cycles
+- [ ] PR creation and review assistance
+
+### Phase 3: Deployment (1 day)
+- [ ] Telegram bot integration
+- [ ] Cron scheduling
+- [ ] Health monitoring
+
+---
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+| Criteria | How We'll Verify |
+|----------|-----------------|
+| Receives Telegram tasks | Send test message, agent responds |
+| Queries Gitea issues | Agent lists open P0 issues |
+| Permission checks work | Blocked tool returns error |
+| Session persistence | Restart agent, history intact |
+| Progress reports | Agent sends Telegram updates |
+
+---
+
+## Resource Requirements
+
+| Resource | Status |
+|----------|--------|
+| Gitea API token | ✅ Have |
+| Kimi API key | ✅ Have |
+| Telegram bot | ⏳ Need @BotFather |
+| New profile | ⏳ Will create |

+# TICKET-203: Implement ToolPermissionContext
+
+**Epic:** EPIC-202  
+**Priority:** P0  
+**Status:** Ready  
+**Assignee:** Allegro  
+**Estimate:** 4 hours  
+
+## Description
+
+Implement the ToolPermissionContext pattern from Claw Code for fine-grained tool access control.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] `ToolPermissionContext` dataclass created
+- [ ] `deny_tools: set[str]` field
+- [ ] `deny_prefixes: tuple[str, ...]` field
+- [ ] `blocks(tool_name: str) -> bool` method
+- [ ] Integration with Hermes tool registry
+- [ ] Tests pass
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+```python
+@dataclass(frozen=True)
+class ToolPermissionContext:
+    deny_tools: set[str] = field(default_factory=set)
+    deny_prefixes: tuple[str, ...] = ()
+    
+    def blocks(self, tool_name: str) -> bool:
+        if tool_name in self.deny_tools:
+            return True
+        return any(tool_name.startswith(p) for p in self.deny_prefixes)
+```

+# TICKET-204: Create ExecutionRegistry
+
+**Epic:** EPIC-202  
+**Priority:** P0  
+**Status:** Ready  
+**Assignee:** Allegro  
+**Estimate:** 6 hours  
+
+## Description
+
+Create ExecutionRegistry for clean command/tool routing, replacing model-decided routing.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] `ExecutionRegistry` class
+- [ ] `register_command(name, handler)` method
+- [ ] `register_tool(name, handler)` method
+- [ ] `command(name) -> CommandHandler` lookup
+- [ ] `tool(name) -> ToolHandler` lookup
+- [ ] `execute(prompt, context)` routing method
+- [ ] Permission context integration
+- [ ] Tests pass
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+Pattern from Claw `src/execution_registry.py`:
+
+```python
+class ExecutionRegistry:
+    def __init__(self):
+        self._commands: dict[str, CommandHandler] = {}
+        self._tools: dict[str, ToolHandler] = {}
+    
+    def register_command(self, name: str, handler: CommandHandler):
+        self._commands[name] = handler
+    
+    def command(self, name: str) -> CommandHandler | None:
+        return self._commands.get(name)
+```
