Kinoshita Kommander — two-panel filesystem navigator

First-party on-device program #6 (ADR-0042). Status: Stub — design pending.

Charter stub. Kinoshita Kommander is canonical per ADR-0042; this doc is a placeholder until the full design lands. See the program roster.

A Norton Commander-style two-panel filesystem navigator. The primary place where exfiltrated data lands and is staged, and where files move between the deck, the cartridge, and network targets.

  • Dual-panel browse / copy / move / delete across mounts.
  • Mounts: device microSD, the inserted cartridge’s SD, and (where a session is live) a remote target via CONDUIT.
  • The staging ground for exfil — a mission deposits captured files here.
  • Launched via (launch-app :kommander …) (NoshAPI Tier 1, ADR-0005). Draws on the cartridge/content rows per the canonical grid. Authored in KEC Lisp; source under runtime/programs/kommander/.
  • Missions deposit exfil via :payload (a file set / virtual mount). The two-panel model maps naturally to “source target ↔ your deck.”
  • Which mounts are real vs. in-world (mission-provided virtual filesystems)?
  • How does exfil staged here persist — UDS, cartridge save (ADR-0019), or a device scratch area?
  • Handoff to DOSSIER (dossier.md) / AmberCalc (ambercalc.md) — does Kommander “open with” a target program?
  • ADR-0019 — cartridge SD storage + per-cart save.
  • ADR-0042 — program charter.
