clipboard_clear_delay has been in the default config (45s), settable, and
read by nothing: clipboardSink copied and returned. That made TUI Secret
Mode -- whose entire purpose is to route secrets off the screen -- strictly
less safe than Python's, because it parked them on a session-wide clipboard
indefinitely.
clipboardSink now takes an optional clearAfterSeconds. When set, it schedules
a wipe after the delay, but only if the clipboard still holds the value it
put there, so a value the user copied in the meantime is left alone -- the
same guard Python's copy_to_clipboard(text, timeout) applies via a read-back.
Where the clipboard cannot be read (no paste tool), it clears unconditionally,
because leaving a secret parked is the worse outcome. The timer is unref'd:
it fires while the long-running TUI is up but never holds a process open, so
the one-shot CLI and the agent are unchanged (they pass no delay).
Both TUI clipboard paths -- Secret Mode reveals and the entry 'C' action --
now route through the profile's clipboard_clear_delay.
Tests use a fake wl-copy/wl-paste pair on PATH: the secret is wiped after the
delay, and a value copied over it in the meantime survives.

Driving the CLI from an empty app directory turned up a gap that no test
covered: there was no way to create a vault. Every path assumed you already
had a seed and told you to export SEEDPASS_MNEMONIC, so a new user could not
get started at all. Python has generate_bip85_seed; the port did not.
fingerprint create fills that in with the same construction Python uses --
32 bytes of OS entropy through BIP-85 app 39 index 0. The entropy call sits
outside any try/catch on purpose, carried over from Python's entropy audit:
nothing may catch a CSPRNG failure and substitute a value.
Where the phrase goes is a deliberate choice rather than a default. This is
the one secret in SeedPass with no other copy, so:
- the destination is validated BEFORE generating, and delivery happens
BEFORE the profile is created -- a failure at either point leaves
nothing behind rather than a vault whose seed nobody has;
- --out writes 0600 with O_EXCL, so an existing file is never clobbered;
- with no destination and a non-TTY stdout it refuses outright, instead of
writing the only copy of a seed into a pipe -- a log, a transcript, an
agent's context.
Also fixed, all found the same way:
- use --exec always exited 0, so chaining a deploy command after it with
&& reported success even when the deploy failed. The sink child's exit
status is now the CLI's own.
- the sink command spec split on whitespace and ignored quotes, so
--exec 'sh -c "..."' -- the most common form there is -- handed sh the
fragments of the script and died on an unterminated string.
- --tags work,dev silently stored a single tag named "work,dev" that no
search would ever match. Commas and spaces both separate now.
Two normal states reported raw errno: a stopped agent said
'connect ENOENT /.../agent.sock', and an occupied --out path said EEXIST.
The capability map claimed ssh/pgp were unported. Both work and are at
parity with Python; automation branches on that list, so it now describes
this build.
Verified against Python on a TS-generated seed: same fingerprint, same
password, same TOTP code. 320 JS tests and 36/36 cross-impl checks pass.
