# Register Sentinel Live Fix Implementation Plan

> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.

**Goal:** Replace static register sentinel tokens with live `/backend-api/sentinel/req` + `turnstile.dx` generation.

**Architecture:** Python keeps the HTTP registration flow. A local Node runner handles the current sentinel proof generation and VM execution. Python assembles the final sentinel header and injects it into register/create-account requests.

**Tech Stack:** Python 3.11+, `curl_cffi`, built-in `unittest`, Node.js CommonJS.

### Task 1: Add failing tests for the new sentinel integration

**Files:**
- Create: `tests/test_sentinel_solver.py`
- Create: `tests/test_register_live_sentinel.py`

- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing tests for Python sentinel solving and register flow usage**
- [ ] **Step 2: Run `python -m unittest tests.test_sentinel_solver tests.test_register_live_sentinel -v` and verify failure**

### Task 2: Add the Node VM / proof runner

**Files:**
- Create: `src/sentinel_vm.js`
- Create: `src/sentinel_runner.js`

- [ ] **Step 1: Add the VM executor and runner CLI**
- [ ] **Step 2: Run a targeted local smoke command against the runner**

### Task 3: Add the Python sentinel solver

**Files:**
- Create: `src/sentinel_solver.py`
- Modify: `pyproject.toml`

- [ ] **Step 1: Implement SDK version discovery, Node subprocess calls, req fetch, and final token assembly**
- [ ] **Step 2: Run sentinel solver unit tests and verify pass**

### Task 4: Wire register flow to the live solver

**Files:**
- Modify: `src/chatgpt_register_http_reverse.py`

- [ ] **Step 1: Inject the sentinel solver into register flow and remove static fallback use**
- [ ] **Step 2: Run register flow unit tests and verify pass**

### Task 5: Verify end-to-end targeted checks

**Files:**
- Modify as needed based on failures from prior tasks

- [ ] **Step 1: Run `python -m unittest tests.test_sentinel_solver tests.test_register_live_sentinel -v`**
- [ ] **Step 2: Run one targeted Node runner smoke command**
- [ ] **Step 3: Summarize limitations and next checks**
