The P3RM1SS10NS tab showed agents that no longer exist in the live
container roster — e.g. an agent named 'root' that was renamed or
destroyed but still had explicit entries in tool-groups.json and/or
capabilities.json. The roster-union behaviour is intentional for
temporarily-stopped agents, but stale entries from renamed/destroyed
agents are confusing.
Backend (dashboard/permissions.rs):
- New DELETE /api/permissions/{agent} handler that bypasses the live-
roster guard (intentionally — that's the point). Calls
tool_groups::remove_agent + capabilities::remove_agent to clear both
JSON files, then emits live SSE snapshots so the tab updates without
a page reload. Format-checks the agent name but does not require it to
be in the containers snapshot.
Frontend (permissions.js):
- renderCapabilities / renderToolGroups now cross-reference agentNames
against containersState (the live roster, already imported). Agents
not in the live roster get an isStale flag.
- Stale rows get a '(not running)' label and a '✕ remove' button that
calls clearStaleAgent() — a new async helper that DELETEs the stale
entry and re-fetches both perm tables.
- Non-stale agents without explicit assignments still get '(default)'.
CSS (dashboard.css):
- .perm-row-stale (reduced opacity), .perm-stale-label (muted small
text), .perm-remove-btn (small red-bordered button) + disabled state.
