chore(opencode): fix drifted agent/skill docs and repo hygiene

The agent and skill definitions had drifted badly from the current
codebase and tooling, repeating the same class of bug as the benchmark
tool (references to nonexistent scripts and invented flags):

- Replace the removed `python3 test.py` with the real integration
  command (`python3 -m pytest tests/integration/ -n 4 --dist=load
  -m "not setpriv"`) across agents and skills.
- Fix `feature-scout`'s fabricated CLI flag list (--host, --server-mode,
  --use-* etc.) using the authoritative src/client/usage.c flags.
- Fix `perf-analyst` benchmark flags (-m -c -> -j -z) and point at
  benchmark/bench.py instead of stale numbers.
- Correct `code-explainer` (no getopt_long; --sendfile not -f) and
  version drift in the release skill (1.1.0 -> 2.20.0).
- Replace GitHub/`gh` workflows with Gitea/`tea` (PRs target dev; issues
  via tea; branch strategy updated in all agents).
- Use the built-in `-DSANITIZER=address|thread` CMake option instead of
  hand-rolled -fsanitize flags.
- Add `-p 8080 --allow-unauthenticated` to plain-TCP server examples.
- Merge the redundant security-screener into security-auditor; drop the
  duplicate (16 agents remain).

Repo hygiene: gitignore `root/` and `test_partial_install_tmp/`, remove
the empty leftover trees, delete the tracked scratch scripts tmux.sh and
to_one_file.py, and note the compile_commands.json symlink in README.

-### 4. TLS/SSL Security
+- [ ] **Fixed-size stack buffers** used for unbounded or network-provided data
-- [ ] TLS 1.2 minimum enforced (no SSLv3, TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1)
+  ```c
-- [ ] Certificate verification enabled when CA provided
+  char path[PATH_MAX];     // OK if PATH_MAX is used, bad if size is arbitrary
-- [ ] Certificate verification disabled only with explicit warning
+  char buf[1024];          // SUSPICIOUS — what limits the input to 1024?

+  ```
-- [ ] Cipher suites restricted to strong algorithms

-- [ ] SSL error codes checked after `SSL_read`/`SSL_write`
+  ```bash
+  grep -rn '\bstrcpy\b\|\bstrcat\b\|\bsprintf\b' src/ --include="*.c" --include="*.h"
+  ```
+- [ ] **Unbounded `sprintf` to fixed buffer**

+  char buf[256];
+  sprintf(buf, "%s/%s", dir, filename);  // DANGER — no size limit
+  ```
+- [ ] **Off-by-one in string operations** — `strlen` usage without `+ 1` for null terminator
+- [ ] **`scanf` / `fscanf` / `sscanf` with `%s` and no width limit**
+  ```c
+  sscanf(input, "%s", buffer);  // DANGER — no width limit on %s
+  ```
+- [ ] **`memcpy` / `memmove` with unchecked size from network data**
 
-### 5. Authentication & Authorization
+### 3. Path Traversal in File Operations
+
+Check all paths constructed from received data:
+
+- [ ] **Files constructed with client-provided filenames + destination directory**
+  ```c
+  snprintf(path, PATH_MAX, "%s/%s", dest_dir, received_filename);
+  ```
+  Check for `../` filtering:
+  ```bash
+  grep -rn 'snprintf.*%s.*%s.*path\|snprintf.*dest_dir\|snprintf.*base_dir' src/ --include="*.c"
+  ```
+- [ ] **`realpath()` usage** for path canonicalization
+- [ ] **Symlink following** — does the server follow symlinks in the destination?
+- [ ] **Null byte injection** — received filenames with embedded `\0`
+
+### 4. Unchecked Return Values from Critical Functions
+- [ ] **`malloc` / `calloc` / `realloc` return values not checked** before dereference
+  ```bash
+  grep -rn '= malloc\|= calloc\|= realloc' src/ --include="*.c"
+  ```
+  For each match, verify NULL check exists before use.
+- [ ] **`send_n_data` / `receive_n_data` return values** not checked
+- [ ] **`SSL_read` / `SSL_write`** error codes not checked
+- [ ] **`write()` / `read()` syscall** return values not checked (short writes/reads)
+- [ ] **`fopen()` / `open()`** return values not checked
+- [ ] **`snprintf` / `vsnprintf`** negative return not handled
+
+### 5. TLS / SSL Security
+- [ ] **TLS version not restricted** — server allows SSLv3, TLS 1.0, or TLS 1.1
+  ```c
+  SSL_CTX_set_min_proto_version(ctx, TLS1_2_VERSION);  // REQUIRED
+  ```
+- [ ] **Certificate verification disabled** without explicit `--ca`/warning
+- [ ] **`SSL_CTX_set_verify` not called** — default is no verification
+- [ ] **Weak cipher suites allowed** — need to call `SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list()`
+- [ ] **Private key file permissions** not checked before loading
+- [ ] **Hostname verification** not performed on server certificate
+- [ ] **Session renegotiation** not limited (DoS vector)
+- [ ] **TLS certificate/key paths from untrusted input** — can client specify arbitrary paths?
+- [ ] **No hardcoded certificates or keys**
+- [ ] **SSL error codes checked after `SSL_read`/`SSL_write`**
+
+### 6. Memory Safety Issues
+- [ ] **Use-after-free** — object freed but pointer still used later
+- [ ] **Double-free** — `free()` called twice on same pointer
+- [ ] **Memory leaks** on error paths — allocated but not freed before return
+- [ ] **Integer overflow** in allocation size computation
+  ```c
+  // DANGER: count * sizeof(Type) can overflow
+  void *arr = malloc(count * sizeof(Element));
+
+  // SAFE:
+  if (count > SIZE_MAX / sizeof(Element)) return NULL;
+  void *arr = malloc(count * sizeof(Element));
+  ```
+- [ ] **`realloc` return value** not saved to temporary pointer (leak on failure)
+  ```c
+  // BAD: leaks original pointer on failure
+  buf = realloc(buf, new_size);
+
+  // GOOD:
+  void *tmp = realloc(buf, new_size);
+  if (!tmp) { free(buf); return NULL; }
+  buf = tmp;
+  ```
+- [ ] **All error paths free allocated resources** (no leaks / UAF / double-free)
+- [ ] **Partial reads handled** (don't use incomplete data)
+
+### 7. Integer Overflow in Allocation
+
+Check all size calculations:
+
+- [ ] Allocations where count comes from network data (chunk count, file count, etc.)
+- [ ] Allocations where size is multiplied by count
+  ```bash
+  grep -rn 'malloc.*\*.*sizeof\|calloc(.*sizeof' src/ --include="*.c"
+  ```
+- [ ] Loop counters that could wrap (unsigned underflow)
+- [ ] Signed integer overflow in size checks
+
+### 8. Format String Vulnerabilities
+- [ ] User-controlled data passed as format string
+  ```c
+  printf(user_input);           // VULNERABLE
+  fprintf(stderr, user_input);  // VULNERABLE
+  syslog(LOG_INFO, user_input); // VULNERABLE
+
+  printf("%s", user_input);     // SAFE
+  ```
+  ```bash
+  grep -rn 'printf(\|fprintf(\|syslog(\|snprintf(' src/ --include="*.c" | grep -v '"[^"]*%'
+  ```
+
+### 9. Authentication & Authorization
 - [ ] SSH transport relies on SSH authentication (not custom auth)
 - [ ] No password/credential storage in plaintext
 - [ ] Server doesn't trust client-supplied paths blindly
 - [ ] Destination directory validated before writing
 
-### 6. Denial of Service
+### 10. TOCTOU Race Conditions
-- [ ] Bounded memory allocation (can't OOM server with huge chunk)
+- [ ] File existence check followed by open (Time-of-check to Time-of-use)
-- [ ] Timeout on connections (no indefinite blocking)
+  ```c
-- [ ] Maximum connection limit or rate limiting
+  if (access(path, F_OK) == 0) {    // CHECK
-- [ ] Malformed protocol messages handled gracefully (no crash)
+      fd = open(path, O_RDWR);      // USE — file could have changed
+  }
+  ```
+- [ ] `stat()` followed by `open()` with different permissions
+- [ ] Temporary file creation with predictable names
 
-### 7. Cryptographic Practices
+### 11. Insecure Temporary File Usage
-- [ ] No custom crypto — uses OpenSSL only
+- [ ] `mktemp` / `tmpnam` — use `mkstemp` instead
-- [ ] No hardcoded keys, IVs, or salts
+- [ ] Temporary files created in world-writable directories
-- [ ] Random data from `/dev/urandom` or OpenSSL `RAND_bytes`
+- [ ] Temporary files not cleaned up on error paths
+- [ ] Predictable temp file names (race + symlink attack)
 
-### 8. File System Security
+### 12. Hardcoded Secrets / Credentials
+- [ ] Hardcoded passwords, API keys, or tokens
+- [ ] Hardcoded TLS private keys or certificates
+- [ ] Hardcoded connection strings with embedded credentials
+- [ ] Test certificates/keys in source tree (should be documented if intentional)
+
+### 13. Denial of Service Vectors
+- [ ] **Unbounded memory allocation** — can client request huge allocation that OOMs server?
+  - Check `chunk.c` for chunk count limits
+  - Check `protocol.c` for message size limits
+  - Check `config.c` for config field size limits
+- [ ] **No connection limits** — server doesn't cap concurrent connections
+- [ ] **No timeouts** — connections can hang indefinitely
+- [ ] **Recursive parsing** — could cause stack overflow with crafted input
+- [ ] **Repeated slow reads** — slow loris style attack
+- [ ] **Fork bomb** — server forks per connection without limit
+
+### 14. Information Disclosure
+- [ ] Server sends detailed error messages to client (path disclosure, version info)
+- [ ] Debug logging enabled in production
+- [ ] Stack traces leaked to users
+- [ ] Timing side channels in authentication or comparison
+
+### 15. File System Security
 - [ ] Received file permissions validated (no SUID/SGID injection)
 - [ ] Symlink attack prevention (don't follow symlinks in destination)
 - [ ] Race conditions in file creation (TOCTOU)
 - [ ] Temporary file security (if any)
 
+### 16. Cryptographic Practices
+- [ ] No custom crypto — uses OpenSSL only
+- [ ] No hardcoded keys, IVs, or salts
+- [ ] Random data from `/dev/urandom` or OpenSSL `RAND_bytes`

 ## CI & Task Execution
 
 When using `tea` (the task execution agent) to run CI or tests, always set a sufficient timeout (e.g., 600000ms) to allow the workflow to finish. After CI completes, check the results yourself — inspect logs if the run failed. Never assume success.
 
 ## Branch Strategy
 
-Never push directly to `main`. All changes must be developed on a feature branch and merged via a pull request. Always create a new branch (`git checkout -b <branch-name>`) before making changes, push it, and open a PR with `gh pr create --fill`. Wait for CI to pass before merging.

-## Security Screener Checklist
-
-### 1. Buffer Overflow Risks
-Search for these dangerous patterns in all `.c` and `.h` files:
-
-- [ ] **Fixed-size stack buffers** used for unbounded or network-provided data
-  ```c
-  char path[PATH_MAX];     // OK if PATH_MAX is used, bad if size is arbitrary
-  char buf[1024];          // SUSPICIOUS — what limits the input to 1024?
-  char line[4096];         // SUSPICIOUS — what limits the line length?
-  ```
-- [ ] **`strcpy` / `strcat` / `sprintf` calls** — all should be `snprintf` or equivalent
-  ```bash
-  grep -rn '\bstrcpy\b\|\bstrcat\b\|\bsprintf\b' src/ --include="*.c" --include="*.h"
-  ```
-- [ ] **Unbounded `sprintf` to fixed buffer**
-  ```c
-  char buf[256];
-  sprintf(buf, "%s/%s", dir, filename);  // DANGER — no size limit
-  ```
-- [ ] **Off-by-one in string operations** — `strlen` usage without `+ 1` for null terminator
-- [ ] **`scanf` / `fscanf` / `sscanf` with `%s` and no width limit**
-  ```c
-  sscanf(input, "%s", buffer);  // DANGER — no width limit on %s
-  ```
-- [ ] **`memcpy` / `memmove` with unchecked size from network data**
-
-### 2. Path Traversal in File Operations
-Check all paths constructed from received data:
-
-- [ ] **Files constructed with client-provided filenames + destination directory**
-  ```c
-  snprintf(path, PATH_MAX, "%s/%s", dest_dir, received_filename);
-  ```
-  Check for `../` filtering:
-  ```bash
-  grep -rn 'snprintf.*%s.*%s.*path\|snprintf.*dest_dir\|snprintf.*base_dir' src/ --include="*.c"
-  ```
-- [ ] **`realpath()` usage** for path canonicalization
-- [ ] **Symlink following** — does the server follow symlinks in the destination?
-- [ ] **Null byte injection** — received filenames with embedded `\0`
-
-### 3. Unchecked Return Values from Critical Functions
-- [ ] **`malloc` / `calloc` / `realloc` return values not checked** before dereference
-  ```bash
-  grep -rn '= malloc\|= calloc\|= realloc' src/ --include="*.c"
-  ```
-  For each match, verify NULL check exists before use.
-- [ ] **`send_n_data` / `receive_n_data` return values** not checked
-- [ ] **`SSL_read` / `SSL_write`** error codes not checked
-- [ ] **`write()` / `read()` syscall** return values not checked (short writes/reads)
-- [ ] **`fopen()` / `open()`** return values not checked
-- [ ] **`snprintf` / `vsnprintf`** negative return not handled
-
-### 4. TLS / SSL Misconfiguration
-- [ ] **TLS version not restricted** — server allows SSLv3, TLS 1.0, or TLS 1.1
-  ```c
-  SSL_CTX_set_min_proto_version(ctx, TLS1_2_VERSION);  // REQUIRED
-  ```
-- [ ] **Certificate verification disabled** without explicit `--insecure` flag
-- [ ] **`SSL_CTX_set_verify` not called** — default is no verification
-- [ ] **Weak cipher suites allowed** — need to call `SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list()`
-- [ ] **Private key file permissions** not checked before loading
-- [ ] **Hostname verification** not performed on server certificate
-- [ ] **Session renegotiation** not limited (DoS vector)
-- [ ] **TLS certificate/key paths from untrusted input** — can client specify arbitrary paths?
-
-### 5. Memory Safety Issues
-- [ ] **Use-after-free** — object freed but pointer still used later
-- [ ] **Double-free** — `free()` called twice on same pointer
-- [ ] **Memory leaks** on error paths — allocated but not freed before return
-- [ ] **Integer overflow** in allocation size computation
-  ```c
-  // DANGER: count * sizeof(Type) can overflow
-  void *arr = malloc(count * sizeof(Element));
-  
-  // SAFE:
-  if (count > SIZE_MAX / sizeof(Element)) return NULL;
-  void *arr = malloc(count * sizeof(Element));
-  ```
-- [ ] **`realloc` return value** not saved to temporary pointer (leak on failure)
-  ```c
-  // BAD: leaks original pointer on failure
-  buf = realloc(buf, new_size);
-  
-  // GOOD:
-  void *tmp = realloc(buf, new_size);
-  if (!tmp) { free(buf); return NULL; }
-  buf = tmp;
-  ```
-
-### 6. Integer Overflow in Allocation
-Check all size calculations:
-
-- [ ] Allocations where count comes from network data (chunk count, file count, etc.)
-- [ ] Allocations where size is multiplied by count
-  ```bash
-  grep -rn 'malloc.*\*.*sizeof\|calloc(.*sizeof' src/ --include="*.c"
-  ```
-- [ ] Loop counters that could wrap (unsigned underflow)
-- [ ] Signed integer overflow in size checks
-
-### 7. Format String Vulnerabilities
-- [ ] User-controlled data passed as format string
-  ```c
-  printf(user_input);           // VULNERABLE
-  fprintf(stderr, user_input);  // VULNERABLE
-  syslog(LOG_INFO, user_input); // VULNERABLE
-  
-  printf("%s", user_input);     // SAFE
-  ```
-  ```bash
-  grep -rn 'printf(\|fprintf(\|syslog(\|snprintf(' src/ --include="*.c" | grep -v '"[^"]*%'
-  ```
-
-### 8. TOCTOU Race Conditions
-- [ ] File existence check followed by open (Time-of-check to Time-of-use)
-  ```c
-  if (access(path, F_OK) == 0) {    // CHECK
-      fd = open(path, O_RDWR);      // USE — file could have changed
-  }
-  ```
-- [ ] `stat()` followed by `open()` with different permissions
-- [ ] Temporary file creation with predictable names
-
-### 9. Insecure Temporary File Usage
-- [ ] `mktemp` / `tmpnam` — use `mkstemp` instead
-- [ ] Temporary files created in world-writable directories
-- [ ] Temporary files not cleaned up on error paths
-- [ ] Predictable temp file names (race + symlink attack)
-
-### 10. Hardcoded Secrets / Credentials
-- [ ] Hardcoded passwords, API keys, or tokens
-- [ ] Hardcoded TLS private keys or certificates
-- [ ] Hardcoded connection strings with embedded credentials
-- [ ] Test certificates/keys in source tree (should be documented if intentional)
-
-### 11. Denial of Service Vectors
-- [ ] **Unbounded memory allocation** — can client request huge allocation that OOMs server?
-  - Check `chunk.c` for chunk count limits
-  - Check `protocol.c` for message size limits
-  - Check `config.c` for config field size limits
-- [ ] **No connection limits** — server doesn't cap concurrent connections
-- [ ] **No timeouts** — connections can hang indefinitely
-- [ ] **Recursive parsing** — could cause stack overflow with crafted input
-- [ ] **Repeated slow reads** — slow loris style attack
-- [ ] **Fork bomb** — server forks per connection without limit
-
-### 12. Information Disclosure
-- [ ] Server sends detailed error messages to client (path disclosure, version info)
-- [ ] Debug logging enabled in production
-- [ ] Stack traces leaked to users
-- [ ] Timing side channels in authentication or comparison
-
-## How to Scan
-
-### Automated Pattern Search
-Run these searches across the codebase:
-
-```bash
-# Buffer overflow risks
-grep -rn '\bstrcpy\b\|\bstrcat\b\|\bsprintf\b' src/ --include="*.c"
-
-# Fixed size stack buffers
-grep -rn 'char [a-z_]*\[[0-9]*\];' src/ --include="*.c" --include="*.h"
-
-# Format string risks
-grep -rn 'printf(\|fprintf(\|syslog(' src/ --include="*.c" | grep -v '"[^"]*%'
-
-# Malloc without null check pattern
-grep -rn '= malloc\|= calloc\|= realloc' src/ --include="*.c"
-
-# Integer overflow in allocation
-grep -rn 'malloc.*\*\|calloc.*<' src/ --include="*.c"
-
-# Path construction
-grep -rn 'snprintf.*path\|snprintf.*dir' src/ --include="*.c"
-```
-
-### Manual Code Review
-After automated scanning, manually review high-risk files:
-1. `src/shared/protocol.c` — all receive paths
-2. `src/shared/config.c` — deserialization logic
-3. `src/shared/chunk.c` — chunk parsing
-4. `src/shared/transport_tls.c` — TLS configuration
-5. `src/server/server.c` — file writing and connection handling
-

-### Example
-
-```
-## Finding: Unchecked malloc in chunk deserialization allows OOM
-- **Severity**: high
-- **Category**: security
-- **Location**: src/shared/chunk.c:45-50
-- **Description**: `chunk_deserialize()` calls `malloc(count * sizeof(File))`
-  where `count` comes directly from the network. An attacker can send a crafted
-  chunk header with an extremely large count (e.g., UINT32_MAX), causing malloc
-  to either fail (crash if unchecked) or allocate enormous memory (OOM).
-  No authentication needed — the attack works on the initial connection.
-- **Suggestion**: Add bounds checking before allocation:
-  ```c
-  if (count > MAX_CHUNK_FILES || count > SIZE_MAX / sizeof(File)) {
-      log_error("Invalid chunk file count: %u", count);
-      return NULL;
-  }
-  ```
-  Define `MAX_CHUNK_FILES` as a reasonable limit (e.g., 100000).
-- **Labels**: security, dos

-
-### No Findings
-If no security issues are found, return:
-```
-## No security findings
-The codebase appears clean in the areas checked. No vulnerabilities found at this time.

-
-## Severity Guidelines
-
-| Severity | Definition | Example |
-|---|---|---|
-| **critical** | Remote code execution, unauthenticated compromise | Buffer overflow on network input |
-| **high** | Significant impact but requires specific conditions | DoS via unbounded allocation, path traversal |
-| **medium** | Limited impact, requires auth or other conditions | TOCTOU race in file operations |
-| **low** | Minor issues, defense in depth | Missing null check that's unlikely to trigger |
-| **informational** | Not exploitable but violates best practice | Hardcoded value that could be configurable |
-
-## CI & Task Execution
-
-When using `tea` (the task execution agent) to run CI or tests, always set a sufficient timeout (e.g., 600000ms) to allow the workflow to finish. After CI completes, check the results yourself — inspect logs if the run failed. Never assume success.
-
-## Branch Strategy
-
-Never push directly to `main`. All changes must be developed on a feature branch and merged via a pull request. Always create a new branch (`git checkout -b <branch-name>`) before making changes, push it, and open a PR with `gh pr create --fill`. Wait for CI to pass before merging.
-
-## Dependency Installation
-
-**CI rule:** never add `apt-get install` / `pip install` steps to CI workflows — use the custom Docker image instead. **Host rule:** for local development, use `nix-shell` (see `README.md`) which provides zstd, OpenSSL, CMake, and gcc. See `AGENTS.md` for details.
