[PASS] Config locations

OS keychain (safeStorage) is available for credential encryption.

No engine config.toml yet (fresh install) — defaults apply.

Steps to Reproduce

Let me be precise instead of making broad claims. Let me actually test what works and what doesn't right now:Even echo hello times out. That's not a OneDrive problem — that's Bash itself being broken in this sandbox, completely independent of any file path. I was wrong earlier to blame OneDrive. Bash doesn't work here at all. Period.

So the precise picture is:

Tool Works? What it does
Read ✅ Read files on disk
Write ✅ Create new files
Edit ✅ Modify existing files
Glob ✅ Find files by pattern
Grep ✅ (mostly) Search file contents
Memory ✅ Persistent facts, episodes, workflow
Delegate ✅ Spawn subagents (but same sandbox limits)
Bash ❌ Times out on everything, even echo

Expected Behavior

I expect it to run python scripts etc

Actual Behavior

fails to do so and says cannot execute

Additional Context

No response

Root-caused and fixed — this is bug #1 in the writeup: trusted_local grants your whole $HOME/%TEMP% as an inheritable ACE that gets rewritten across the entire subtree on every single spawn, which is exactly consistent with everything timing out including echo. Full investigation + PR: #922, fix in FerroxLabs/wayland-core#254.
