Problem

The VM of PR#71 takes too much of the laptop's power; a satellite in a VM on the user's laptop is no practical way. The Claude Desktop of the satellite is logged in with the user's account and shows all sessions of that account, although the satellite is to isolate the agents' work.

Non-Goals

• No code; this PR changes the plan only.
• No decision yet on how to isolate the Claude login.

Solution

• #sat.vm is dropped, with the reason.
• #sat.machine: tooling that installs the agentic environment on a separate computer, from an Omarchy USB stick and a cidata drive, as the VM did.
• #sat.isolation: the shared Claude login, with the options found so far.
• The block #sat records the user's decisions of 2026-10-14.
• Version 0.43.3.

Open Questions

• None.
