fix(cli): honor --state-dir across node agent, node status and node down - #1876
Conversation
Every node agent subcommand (list, spawn, new, release, set-model) and node tail now accept --state-dir / --broker-url / --api-key, and a flag-free RELAY_BROKER_URL selects the broker, so brokers started with node up --state-dir (fleet nodes) are manageable from any directory. - An explicit --state-dir reads only that broker's connection.json; ambient RELAY_BROKER_URL / RELAY_BROKER_API_KEY no longer override it. - --state-dir also accepts a fleet node directory whose broker state lives in state/ (node agent, node status, node down). - Missing-connection errors name the searched path and whether it was the project default or --state-dir. - Broker identity records now live in the broker state dir, so node down --force --state-dir verifies brokers started from another cwd; legacy project-dir records are still read. node status and node down name a missing identity record and the migration path. Fixes #1446, #1822, #1820, #1575, #1192. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01J58Z89z3X6nT8XvtpR4Q5M

…hans - Select the exact --state-dir whenever its connection.json exists, so a malformed file fails instead of redirecting to a nested state/ broker. - node down/status treat lock and identity files as broker-state evidence, so down --force --state-dir <node-dir> still recovers a nested broker whose connection.json is gone.

- --state-dir stays authoritative with --broker-url: the key comes from that state dir (nested state/ included), never from the env. - RELAY_BROKER_API_KEY alone selects the local broker, matching attach. - removeBrokerIdentity removes every location holding the exact record. - RelayFlow proof now spawns the real built agent-relay binary. - Platform-aware test fixtures; README and CHANGELOG clarifications.

- Missing-connection errors name only the file resolution actually read (an existing malformed exact file is reported as unusable). - node down/status prefer a live connection.json (exact, then nested state/) before lock/identity evidence, so stale locks cannot shadow a running nested broker. - Stale-identity recovery messages name the record file actually found. - RelayFlow proof bounds each CLI invocation to 15s.

The 1797 case installs with a cloud-workspace-only npm ci, pruning root dependencies such as commander, so later cases like 1801 failed with ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND whenever the full corpus ran (any PR that adds a case). The case harness now fingerprints node_modules/.package-lock.json and runs a full npm ci when a case changed the installed tree.
