The marmot harness surfaced the bug on first run: amy stripped
`marmot group create --name "Interop-02"` thinking the global
account selector ran into the group's display-name flag. Result:
amy resolved the "Interop-02" account, found no identity.json, and
errored — no group ever got created.
Renames the global account-selector flag to `--account`. The per-
subcommand `--name` flags (`marmot group create --name "Demo"`,
`profile edit --name "Alice"`, `marmot await group --name X`) are
untouched — they're free of the global parser now that it doesn't
claim the same name.
Sweep:
- `Main.kt`: GlobalFlag.NAME → ACCOUNT, long "--account".
- `Config.kt`: DataDir.resolve param renamed nameFlag → accountFlag;
every error message points the user at --account.
- `UseCommand.kt`: error hint says `amy --account NAME init`.
- All test wrappers + direct $AMY_BIN calls under cli/tests/ swap
the global `--name X` for `--account X` (subcommand --name kept
exactly where it appeared).
- README + DEVELOPMENT updated.
There is no installed base to protect, so the self-contained
`--data-dir P` escape hatch goes away entirely. amy now has exactly
one layout — the production multi-account one — and tests exercise
that same code path. Drops one global flag, one DataDir construction
mode, and the "tests use a different code path than users" footgun.
Layout (unchanged from the previous commits — just the only mode now):

`DataDir.DEFAULT_ROOT` reads `$HOME` directly (falling back to
`user.home`) because JDK 21 resolves `user.home` via getpwuid and
ignores `$HOME` — which would have broken the standard CLI test
isolation pattern of `HOME=/tmp/foo amy …` (the same convention
git, gpg, npm follow).
Test sweep:
- `cli/tests/headless/helpers.sh`, `cli/tests/dm/setup.sh`,
`cli/tests/cache/cache-headless.sh` wrappers all switch to
`HOME=$STATE_DIR amy --name X …`.
- `ensure_identity_for` drops its `dir` parameter; the function and
every harness call site go through `--name` only.
- `A_DIR`/`B_DIR`/`D_DIR` get repointed at `$STATE_DIR/.amy/X`. The
one consumer (`cache-headless.sh`'s T6 `relays.json` check) still
works since it's just a path probe.
- `cli/tests/dm/tests-dm.sh` ghost identities get their own
short-lived `$HOME` so they don't pollute the main test root.
Cache-test T4 inverts: pre-shared-store, "B has not seen A → first
profile show is a relay miss, second is a cache hit" tested
per-account caching. With one shared events-store, B's first lookup
of A is already a cache hit because A wrote kind:0 there during
bootstrap. T4 now asserts that — drops the stale "second lookup hits
cache" half. T7 (no-identity maintenance verbs) gets a fresh fake
`$HOME` plus a throwaway `--name` so the empty store has no inherited
events.
Docs (README + DEVELOPMENT) rewritten to match — quick-start now uses
`amy --name alice create`, the on-disk-layout section shows the new
tree, and the global-flags table replaces `--data-dir` with `--name`
plus the new `amy use` verb.
amy's default stdout is now a YAML-ish render of the underlying result
map; the previous single-line JSON contract moves behind a global
`--json` flag. Errors mirror the same rule (`error: <code>: <detail>`
on stderr by default, JSON `{"error":...,"detail":...}` under --json).
Exit codes (0/1/2/124) and the --json shape itself are unchanged —
only the default presentation flips.
- Replaces Json.writeLine / Json.error with mode-aware
Output.emit / Output.error. The same Jackson mapper is reused for
on-disk JSON via Output.mapper.
- Adds `--json` to the global flag set in Main.kt; honoured even when
argument parsing fails so error JSON keeps shape under --json.
- Updates the test harness wrappers (amy_a / amy_b / amy_d in
cli/tests/{headless,dm,cache}/) and the few direct $AMY_BIN call
sites whose stdout is consumed via $() / 2>&1 — they now pass
--json so the existing jq pipelines keep working.
- Rewrites the README "Output contract" and DEVELOPMENT design
principles to describe the new default, and clarifies that only
--json is the public API; the text shape is allowed to drift.
dm-03 and dm-04 spawn a throwaway "ghost" identity by calling $AMY_BIN
directly (not through amy_a / amy_d), so they missed the plaintext
backend flag added in the previous commit and were failing with
"No TTY and no passphrase source" on headless CI.

identity.json previously stored `privKeyHex` and `nsec` as plaintext fields.
0600 file perms keep other OS users out, but not another app running as the
same user — and that is the threat model the CLI actually cares about.
Introduce a SecretStore indirection:
* identity.json now persists only the public parts plus a typed
`secret: IdentitySecret` envelope (keychain | ncryptsec | plaintext).
* macOS uses `/usr/bin/security` (Keychain ACLs bind the item to the binary
that stored it, so other same-user apps need user consent).
* Linux uses `secret-tool` if a Secret Service is running on the session
D-Bus; the gain there is at-rest encryption while the keyring is locked.
* On any platform without a keychain, auto falls back to NIP-49
(scrypt + XChaCha20) with the passphrase read from --passphrase-file,
then $AMY_PASSPHRASE, then a TTY prompt. Another same-user app can read
the blob but cannot decrypt it without the passphrase.
* `--secret-backend=plaintext` is an explicit opt-in for dev scripts and
the interop test harness.
Legacy identity.json files that still carry top-level privKeyHex/nsec are
read transparently and auto-migrate on the next save.
whoami, `create` / `login` existence checks, and init-re-run now use a
metadata-only load path so they do not trigger a keychain prompt or ask
for a passphrase just to echo the npub.
Tests: cli/tests/ setups wire --secret-backend=plaintext through the amy_a
/ amy_d wrappers so headless CI runs do not stall on a TTY passphrase
prompt.

Two fixes needed to make the DM harness actually pass end-to-end:
1. Bind the loopback relay to 127.0.0.2 instead of 127.0.0.1.
Quartz's `RelayTag.parse` (called from `ChatMessageRelayListEvent.
relays()`) rejects any URL for which `isLocalHost()` returns true —
the substring check matches `"127.0.0.1"` among others. That means a
kind:10050 event whose `relay` tag reads `ws://127.0.0.1:8090/`
silently parses to an empty relay list, and `RecipientRelayFetcher`
reports `dmInbox == []`. Under strict mode `dm send` then correctly
refuses with `no_dm_relays` — hiding an otherwise-valid test setup.
`127.0.0.2` is the cleanest fix: still pure loopback (no network
traffic, no config needed), not matched by `isLocalHost()`, and
Linux binds any IP in 127.0.0.0/8 without setup. The Marmot harness
is unaffected because its tests never depend on parsing their own
kind:10051/10002 relay tags back out — they hit the bootstrap
fallback path.
marmot/setup.sh's `start_local_relay` now reads `${RELAY_HOST:-
127.0.0.1}` so both harnesses can share it; the DM harness sets
`RELAY_HOST=127.0.0.2` by default and exposes `--host` as an escape
hatch.
2. Replace dm-06 cursor-advance check with `--since` filter check.
The original assertion ("second no-flag `dm list` returns 0") was
wrong for the actual design: `filterGiftWrapsToPubkey` always
subtracts a 2-day lookback from `since` (required to catch NIP-59's
randomised `created_at`), so a repeat no-flag query legitimately
re-pulls everything in the last two days. The cursor advances the
scan window for efficiency, not for idempotency. dm-06 now verifies
`--since` actually filters: query with `--since <newest + 2 days +
1 hour>` — after the filter's lookback subtraction, the effective
floor lands past every message, and the list comes back empty.
Also: added `protoc` to the DM preflight checks so the missing-dep
error comes before 4 failed cargo retries.
Result on this machine: 6/6 pass, two clean runs in a row.
`tools/` is for libraries (arti-build); shell-based interop harnesses
that drive the `amy` binary belong with the CLI module. New layout:
cli/tests/
├── lib.sh # shared logging + result tracking
├── headless/helpers.sh # shared amy_a / amy_json / assertions
├── marmot/ # MLS group-messaging interop (vs whitenoise-rs)
│ ├── marmot-interop.sh
│ ├── marmot-interop-headless.sh

│ └── patches/
└── dm/ # NIP-17 DM interop (amy ↔ amy)
├── dm-interop-headless.sh
├── setup.sh
└── tests-dm.sh
Per-suite changes:
- Each suite owns its own setup.sh; previously the Marmot setup was at
headless/setup.sh and the DM setup at headless/setup-dm.sh, which
implied shared infra they don't actually share.
- `cli/tests/lib.sh` and `cli/tests/headless/helpers.sh` are the only
shared bits across suites.
- The DM harness still reuses Marmot's `start_local_relay` /
`stop_local_relay` (sourced via `../marmot/setup.sh`) — same relay
binary, no duplication.
- All sourcing paths updated; REPO_ROOT now climbs three levels (was
two when the harness lived under `tools/`); patches/ is now a sibling
of marmot/setup.sh rather than under marmot/headless/.
- `.gitignore` updated to cover both suites' state dirs.
cli/ROADMAP.md and cli/tests/README.md updated to point at the new paths.
No behavioural change — every test runs the same code; only the file
layout and source paths moved.
