Root-cause fix for the live-session friction where "how many sites are on
qa?" stalled on repeated `export $HCIROOT` nags despite a working `qa` SSH
alias:
1. $HCIROOT login-shell fix: ssh-helper.sh `exec` now wraps remote commands in
`bash -lc` so the Cloverleaf login profile sources and $HCIROOT/$HCISITE/PATH
populate as for an interactive operator login. Escape hatch: NOLOGIN prefix
or LARRY_SSH_NO_LOGIN=1. pull-smat find/sample use the same wrapper.
2. Both-mode detection: startup surfaces a MODE= line (LOCAL / REMOTE / UNKNOWN)
and leads with what it found instead of asking for paths.
3. First-class list_sites tool + /sites [alias]: enumerates sites in both modes
(hcisitelist fast-path, NetConfig-walk fallback) via new ssh-helper discover.
4. System-prompt de-nagging: agents/larry.md + env-diff/regression prompts no
longer tell Larry to ask Bryan to export $HCIROOT for a reachable host.
5. Streaming slowness (dominant residual): new pure-bash _json_str_decode
un-escapes the common escape-free delta with zero forks, halving per-turn
jq forks on top of v0.8.12. Round-trip verified.
6. pull-smat path capture hardened (Vera Minor #1): resolved path now emitted
behind a SMATDB_PATH: sentinel and selected by pattern not position, so a
login-shell MOTD/banner on stdout can't be mistaken for the path; falls back
to prior tail -1 when no sentinel present. Selection logic unit-verified.
Vera gate: PASS-WITH-NOTES (v0.8.13). bash -n clean on larry.sh + ssh-helper.sh;
MANIFEST regenerated (48 entries) and --check clean.

Bryan's ask: use Larry on prod data without PHI ever leaving the client box.
Added:
lib/hl7-sanitize.sh — tokenize PHI fields in HL7 messages
lib/hl7-desanitize.sh — reverse op (local view-time unmask)
Tokenization model:
- Replace PHI fields with [[CATEGORY_NNNN]] tokens (MRN, NAME, DOB,
ADDR, PHONE, ACCT, SSN, PROV, VISIT, etc.)
- Same value → same token across messages (deterministic via local
lookup table; analysis can still correlate patients).
- Lookup table at $LARRY_HOME/sanitize/lookup.tsv mode 0600 — never
leaves the client.
- Default PHI rule set covers PID, PV1, NK1, GT1, IN1, OBR, OBX,
DG1, ORC; --rules-file to extend.
- --strict also tokenizes unknown Z segments wholesale.
Prompt-side preprocessing in larry.sh:
- {{phi:VALUE}} inline marker, auto-category lookup
- {{phi:CATEGORY:VALUE}} explicit category
- Replaced with the token BEFORE the user input enters conversation
history. The original never reaches the API.
- Local feedback "phi> {{phi:...}} → [[TOKEN]]" printed to terminal only.
New REPL slash commands:
/phi <value> tokenize a single value, print the token
/unmask <token> show original (local terminal only, never API)
/tokens show full PHI ↔ token lookup table
New tools in larry.sh schema:
hl7_sanitize agent can sanitize a file before reading PHI
tokenize-value / detokenize-value (subcommands of hl7-sanitize.sh)
Persona update (agents/larry.md):
- Documented PHI mode and rules for proactive sanitize-first behavior
MANUAL.md updated with the full PHI section including limitations.
Brings total native tools to 29.

Bryan's pivot: until bjnoela.com is back online, transfer learnings via
local file capture on the client + manual paste-back to home-Larry. NO
credentials required on the client box.
Capture flow:
- lib/lessons.sh records lessons to $LARRY_HOME/lessons/<date>.md
- lesson_record tool in larry.sh lets the agent record proactively
- /lesson, /lessons, /export REPL commands
- agents/larry.md updated: capture corrections, conventions, quirks
silently when Bryan teaches them
Export flow:
- lessons.sh export | bundle | --gh-issue (uses gh CLI if available)
- Bryan pastes the bundle to home-Larry on his dev machine
- home-Larry commits the refinement into cloverleaf-larry/agents/
- next launch on any client pulls updated persona via self-update
Brings total native tools to 28.
