the antil field manual reference

path purpose
antil.yaml committed project configuration
.antil/local.yaml optional uncommitted Workspace overlay
.antil/… recommended secret files; keep excluded from git
git common directory Project / worktree identity shared by checkouts
git info/exclude local exclusion modified only when requested by init --exclude-local

Home precedence: CLI --home, then ANTIL_HOME, then ~/.local/state/antil. Home is canonicalized so symlink spellings use the same Installation lock and socket directory.

relative to home purpose
state.db SQLite state and durable event record
daemon.lock single daemon lock for this physical home
daemon.log daemon diagnostics
logs/run_….log managed Run output; exact path returned in JSON
logs/runner-ses_….log runner diagnostics
private/ installation-private resource credential files, mode 0600

The home and runtime directories are created with mode 0700. Resource credentials remain references in projections. Do not edit SQLite or credential files as a recovery workflow.

Sockets live under /tmp/antil-<uid>-<home-hash>/ to fit Unix socket path limits. The derived directory uses a hash of the canonical home, mode 0700.

path in runtime directory purpose
daemon.sock CLI to daemon API
runner-<session-id>.sock Session runner API
runner-<session-id>.lock runner ownership lock

A Session end retains git worktrees and database data. Automatic TTL deletion is not implemented. See explicit prune.
