Ulysses Protocol

Ulysses is a Thoughtbox-owned debugging protocol.

The invariants live in the server-side Ulysses implementation behind tb.ulysses(...). The durable trace lives in Thoughtbox thoughts and knowledge. Codex hooks only enforce the current server state.

Do not use .ulysses/ files or scripts/ulysses.sh as authoritative state. Do not use legacy direct handles like thoughtbox_gateway or thoughtbox_ulysses as the interaction surface when Code Mode is available.
