Comprehensive analysis of emes idle/alice plugin:
- Hook chain (6 hooks, Stop is key blocker)
- State management via jwz (topic-based messaging)
- alice agent (read-only Opus reviewer)
- Circuit breakers against infinite loops
Conclusion: alice pattern is overkill for code-review (we ARE the
reviewer). More useful: "review reminder" hook that checks if
code-review was run before exit on significant changes.

Local (skills, dotfiles): beads + our dual-publish
Remote (ops-jrz1 VPS): tissue + emes ecosystem
They coexist by environment, not replacing each other.

Compares three approaches:
- Our system: cross-agent, Nix, lenses
- Claude plugins: official, hooks, marketplace
- emes: mechanical enforcement, tissue, idle, jwz
Living document for iterating on architecture.

Tested Claude Opus 4.5 on btop and GitHub screenshots.
Findings: excellent text/state/layout, approximate coordinates.
Recommendation: hybrid AT-SPI + vision approach.
