The per-session destination map was being written as a sidecar JSON file
(/workspace/.nanoclaw-destinations.json) — inconsistent with the rest of
v2, where all host↔container IO goes through inbound.db / outbound.db.
Move it into a `destinations` table in INBOUND_SCHEMA. The host writes
it before every container wake AND on demand (e.g. after create_agent)
so the creator sees the new child destination mid-session without a
restart. The container queries the table live on every lookup — no
cache, no staleness window.
- src/db/schema.ts: add `destinations` table to INBOUND_SCHEMA.
- src/session-manager.ts: writeDestinationsFile → writeDestinations,
writes via DELETE + INSERT inside a transaction.
- src/delivery.ts: create_agent handler calls writeDestinations on the
creator's session after inserting the new destination rows.
- container/agent-runner/src/destinations.ts: queries inbound.db
directly in every findByName/getAllDestinations/findByRouting call.
No more cache. No setDestinationsForTest (obsolete). No fs import.
- container/agent-runner/src/index.ts and mcp-tools/index.ts: remove
loadDestinations() calls — no longer needed.
- Test helper initTestSessionDb creates the destinations table.
Integration test inserts a row directly instead of mocking the cache.
No backwards compatibility: sessions predating the schema update must
be recreated. This is fine on the v2 branch.

When an agent has exactly one configured destination, wrapping output in
<message to="..."> blocks is unnecessary. Plain text goes to the sole
destination automatically. This preserves the simple "just reply" flow
for the common case of one user on one channel.
Applies in three places:
- System prompt addendum: single-destination case gets a simplified
explanation ("your messages are delivered to X, just write directly").
Multi-destination case keeps the <message to="..."> syntax docs.
- Main output parser: if zero <message> blocks are found and there is
exactly one destination, the entire cleaned text (with <internal>
stripped) is sent to that destination.
- send_message / send_file MCP tools: `to` parameter is now optional.
With one destination, omitted defaults to it. With multiple, omitting
returns an error listing the options.
Multi-destination behavior is unchanged — explicit <message to="..."> is
still required, and untagged text is still scratchpad.
groups/global/CLAUDE.md updated to describe both cases.

Replaces implicit routing context (NANOCLAW_PLATFORM_ID env vars) with
per-agent named destination maps. Agents reference channels and peer
agents by local names; the host re-validates every outbound route against
a new agent_destinations table that is both the routing map and the ACL.
Model changes:
- New migration 004 adds agent_destinations (agent_group_id, local_name,
target_type, target_id). Backfills from existing messaging_group_agents.
- Host writes /workspace/.nanoclaw-destinations.json before every container
wake so admin changes take effect on next start.
- Container loads map at startup, appends system-prompt addendum listing
available destinations and the <message to="name">…</message> syntax.
- Agent main output is parsed for <message to="..."> blocks; each block
becomes a messages_out row with routing resolved via the local map.
Untagged text and <internal>…</internal> are scratchpad (logged only).
- send_message MCP tool now takes `to` (destination name) instead of raw
routing fields. send_to_agent deleted (redundant — agents are just
destinations). send_file/edit_message/add_reaction route via map too.
- Inbound formatter adds from="name" attribute via reverse-lookup so the
agent sees a consistent namespace in both directions.
Permission enforcement:
- Host checks hasDestination() before every channel delivery AND every
agent-to-agent route. Unauthorized messages dropped and logged.
- routeAgentMessage simplified: ~15 lines, no JSON parse, content copied
verbatim (target formatter resolves the sender via its own local map).
- create_agent is admin-only, checked at both the container (tool not
registered for non-admins) and the host (re-check on receive). Inserts
bidirectional destination rows so parent↔child comms work immediately.
Includes path-traversal guard on folder name.
Self-modification cleanup:
- add_mcp_server now requires admin approval (previously had none).
- install_packages validates package names on BOTH sides (container tool
+ host receiver) with strict regex. Max 20 packages per request.
- All three self-mod tools are fire-and-forget: write request, return
immediately with "submitted" message. Admin approval triggers a chat
notification to the requesting agent — no tool-call polling, no 5-min
holds. On rebuild/mcp_server approval, the container is killed so the
next wake picks up new config/image.
- Approval delivery extracted into requestApproval() helper (the one
place where three call sites were literally identical).
Also folded in the phase-1 dynamic import cleanup (create_agent no longer
does `await import('./db/agent-groups.js')`) and removes NANOCLAW_PLATFORM_ID
/ CHANNEL_TYPE / THREAD_ID env-var routing entirely.
