Maximus Gorog 064387b7a0 Add v0 orchestrator + first oracle collector (host /proc)
End-to-end: ``python -m orchestrator --target-pid <pid> --duration N`` now
writes a complete episode directory matching docs/data-model.md, with phase
labels, events, and a 10 Hz host /proc telemetry stream. No VM yet — pid is
arbitrary so we can validate the loop against e.g. ``sleep 5`` while the lab
side comes up.

collectors/proc_qemu.py — parses /proc/<pid>/{stat,io,status} (handles parens
in comm), single-shot collect_once(), and a stop-event-driven run_loop()
that ticks at a fixed cadence and exits when the pid disappears. Tagged
``available_in_deployment: false`` per the threat-model doc.

orchestrator/episode.py — EpisodeRunner: creates data/episodes/<ulid>/,
atomic meta.json, events.jsonl + labels.jsonl writers, drives the collector
in a thread for duration_s, writes done.marker last so the shipper never
sees a half-finished episode.

orchestrator/ulid.py — tiny 26-char Crockford-base32 ULID generator.
Time-sortable, no third-party dep.

orchestrator/__main__.py — CLI entry point.

Tests (15 new, 28 total green):
- proc_qemu: real-ish stat with parens-in-comm, missing /proc/<pid>/io,
  missing pid, run_loop cadence, run_loop terminates when pid disappears.
- episode: full directory shape against os.getpid(), id override,
  done.marker written after meta.json finalize.
- ulid: length+alphabet, 2000-burst uniqueness, time-sortability.

Smoke-tested against ``sleep 10``: 16 rows over 1.5s at 100ms cadence,
monotonic clock, RSS stable at ~3.5 MiB as expected for an idle sleep.

orchestrator/

The state machine that drives a single episode:

snapshot_load → clean → armed → infecting → infected_running → dormant → reverting

Responsibilities:

  • Bring up the host-only bridge and verify isolation before the guest starts.
  • Boot the guest from a named snapshot.
  • Spawn the five telemetry collectors (collectors/) with a shared episode id and shared monotonic clock origin.
  • Drive the Metasploit Framework over RPC to fire the configured exploit module.
  • Upload + execute the configured malware sample once a session is open.
  • Emit phase transitions to labels.jsonl at the moment the action is taken.
  • Revert the snapshot at episode end.
  • Write meta.json with the result summary.

Implementation lives in this directory and is imported as orchestrator.*.
