SharpClaw.Modules.DotNetSidecarHost

SharpClaw.Modules.DotNetSidecarHost runs a compiled SharpClaw .NET module in the sidecar process model. The host process starts this executable with the module directory and control endpoint in environment variables, then talks to it over the SharpClaw foreign-module protocol. The sidecar host loads the module entry assembly through ModuleLoadContext, validates the module identity from module.json, exposes lifecycle and tool endpoints, and proxies host capabilities such as task execution, provider calls, module storage, and agent operations back to the parent SharpClaw runtime.

Reference this package from SharpClaw runtime or packaging code that needs to ship the .NET sidecar executable next to module-loading infrastructure. A normal module implementation does not reference this package directly; module projects normally reference SharpClaw.Contracts for ISharpClawCoreModule and related DTOs. Use the sidecar host package when you are assembling the runtime payload that launches .NET modules out of process.

At runtime the parent host provides the environment values identified by ForeignModuleProtocol.ModuleDirectoryEnv, ForeignModuleProtocol.ControlAddressEnv, and ForeignModuleProtocol.ControlTokenEnv. The module directory must contain module.json and the entry assembly named by that manifest. A sidecar-compatible .NET module manifest sets runtime.name to dotnet and runtime.hostMode to sidecar, then points entryAssembly at the module DLL.

{
  "id": "sample_module",
  "displayName": "Sample Module",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "toolPrefix": "sample",
  "entryAssembly": "Sample.Module.dll",
  "runtime": {
    "name": "dotnet",
    "hostMode": "sidecar"
  }
}

The sidecar executable is not a general CLI surface. It is launched by SharpClaw with a private control token, loads exactly one module directory, and stops when the host sends the shutdown protocol request.
