Report which exit is which, instead of one ambiguous "public IP"

`status` probed https://1.1.1.1/cdn-cgi/trace and printed the answer as
"public IP". In test mode 1.1.1.1 is the *only* address routed into the tunnel,
so that line reported a PIA exit while every other packet left directly — a
test tunnel reading exactly like a full one.

Found on a live container: default route still via eth0, one 1.1.1.1/32 route
through pia0, and the old status line claiming a PIA public IP. This is a
plausible route to concluding the VPN is on when it is not, which is close to
the confusion this skill exists to prevent.

Status now names the mode and, in test mode, prints both exits with the real
address called out. 1.0.0.1 serves the same trace endpoint as 1.1.1.1 and is
never routed into the tunnel, so the direct exit can be probed without DNS.

Verified against all four states: no tunnel, test mode on a live tunnel that
was already up, full tunnel, and after teardown.

+description: Connect this container's traffic through a PIA VPN tunnel over WireGuard, or diagnose one that is not working. Use when asked to enable, route through, check, or tear down a VPN, when traffic needs to leave from a different location, or when DNS or connectivity broke after a VPN was brought up.
+---
+
+# PIA VPN
+
+Bring this container's traffic out through Private Internet Access over
+WireGuard, using the API PIA documents for headless use.
+
+Run `sudo ~/.claude/skills/pia-vpn/pia-wg.sh` with `up`, `up --full`, `down` or
+`status`. Read the rest of this page before the first `up --full` — three of the
+behaviours below are actively misleading if you meet them without warning, and
+each one presents as "the VPN is fine" or "Claude is broken" rather than as
+what it is.
+
+## Before anything else: what the toggle does not do
+
+Triple-C's **VPN support** setting grants three things — `CAP_NET_ADMIN`, the
+`/dev/net/tun` device, and the `net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark` sysctl — and
+stops there. It starts no client, builds no tunnel and changes no route.
+
+So "the VPN is enabled but traffic isn't going through it" is normally not a
+fault. It means the capability is present and nothing has used it yet. Check
+with `status` before assuming something is broken.
+
+If the toggle is off, the script says so and names the setting. It cannot be
+turned on from inside the container; the user changes it in Config → Runtime,
+and it recreates the container on the next start (home and `.claude` volumes
+are preserved — it is not a Reset).
+
+## Two modes
+
+| | routes | use when |
+|---|---|---|
+| `up` | only `1.1.1.1/32` | verifying the tunnel works without disturbing anything |
+| `up --full` | all public traffic | you actually want traffic leaving via PIA |
+
+Prefer `up` first. It proves the handshake, credentials and region are good
+while your own connectivity is untouched, so a failure is cheap.
+
+**`up --full` routes Claude Code's own API traffic through PIA.** If the tunnel
+drops, that traffic stops until it recovers or you run `down`. Say so before
+running it — the user may be mid-session, and they will experience the failure
+as Claude going away, not as a VPN problem.
+
+## Trap 1: a full tunnel takes DNS with it
+
+The container resolves through an address on the Docker network — under Docker
+Desktop, `192.168.65.7` — which sits **outside** the container's own subnet. A
+default route of `0.0.0.0/0`, or the `0.0.0.0/1` + `128.0.0.0/1` pair, captures
+it and posts every lookup into a tunnel that cannot carry private traffic.
+
+Nothing resolves after that. The visible symptom is Claude Code reporting it
+cannot connect, because `api.anthropic.com` no longer resolves:
+
+```
+$ curl https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages
+* Could not resolve host: api.anthropic.com     (rc=6)
+```
+
+`pia-wg.sh` already handles this: it routes `10.0.0.0/8`, `172.16.0.0/12`,
+`192.168.0.0/16` and `169.254.0.0/16` back via the original gateway, then pins
+PIA's own resolvers through the tunnel with `/32` routes that outrank the
+`10/8` exclusion. If you ever route traffic by hand, you owe both halves — the
+exclusions *and* a resolver reachable from wherever you pointed the default.
+
+## Trap 2: an IP-literal health check cannot see a dead resolver
+
+`curl https://1.1.1.1/cdn-cgi/trace` needs no DNS, so it returns a cheerful
+PIA exit address while name resolution is entirely broken. A tunnel verified
+that way looks perfect and works for nothing.
+
+`status` resolves a real name for this reason. Trust its `DNS:` line, and if
+you check by hand, resolve a name rather than fetching an address.
+
+## Trap 3: in test mode, the obvious probe is the one thing tunnelled
+
+`up` routes `1.1.1.1` and nothing else. So checking your address by fetching
+`https://1.1.1.1/cdn-cgi/trace` reports a **PIA** address — not because your
+traffic is going through PIA, but because that single probe is. Everything else
+still leaves directly.
+
+This reads exactly like a working full tunnel, and it is the likeliest reason
+someone concludes the VPN is on when it is not. `status` prints both exits in
+test mode for this reason:
+
+```
+mode: test route only (1.1.1.1 through the tunnel, nothing else)
+  through the tunnel: 64.113.5.73
+  everything else:    172.116.197.166   <- your real address
+```
+
+Two different addresses there is correct and expected in test mode. If you want
+the second line to change, you want `up --full`.
+
+## Trap 4: no tunnel survives a restart, and it fails open
+
+The network namespace is rebuilt every time the container starts, and nothing
+inside reconnects anything. After a stop/start, Reset or any config change that
+recreates the container, the interface and its routes are gone.
+
+State under `/run/pia-wg` rides the snapshot and persists, so leftover files
+make it look as though the tunnel is still configured. It is not. Traffic goes
+out the real address with no error and nothing visibly different.
+
+Never infer from `/run/pia-wg` that a tunnel is up. Run `status` — if the
+handshake line is missing, there is no tunnel. Re-run `up` after every start.
+
+## Credentials
+
+Two lines in `~/pia-creds` — username, then password:
+
+```
+p1234567
+your-password
+```
+
+Set `PIA_CREDS` to use a different path. Treat the contents as secret: never
+print the file, never echo the values, and never include them in a commit, a
+log or a message. The script reads it directly and does not echo it.
+
+## Regions
+
+Defaults to `us_chicago`. Override with `PIA_REGION`:
+
+```bash
+sudo PIA_REGION=uk_london ~/.claude/skills/pia-vpn/pia-wg.sh up --full
+```
+
+List the ids:
+
+```bash
+curl -s https://serverlist.piaservers.net/vpninfo/servers/v6 \
+  | head -1 | jq -r '.regions[].id'
+```
+
+## Verifying
+
+`status` prints the handshake, DNS, and which address traffic actually leaves
+from — labelled by mode, so the answer cannot be misread:
+
+```
+  latest handshake: 2 seconds ago
+  transfer: 92 B received, 180 B sent
+DNS: ok (via 10.0.0.243 10.0.0.242)
+mode: full tunnel
+  all traffic exits: 64.113.5.244
+```
+
+All of it matters. A handshake with `DNS: BROKEN` is trap 1. `mode: test route
+only` with two different addresses is trap 3, and is correct — it means the
+tunnel works and you have not asked for it to carry anything yet. Report the
+mode line when telling someone the VPN is on; "the public IP is a PIA one" is
+true in test mode too, and means much less than it sounds like.
+
+## Tearing down
+
+`down` restores `resolv.conf` from its backup and removes exactly the routes
+that were added, in reverse order, then deletes the interface. It is safe to
+run when nothing is up. Confirm afterwards that the public address is back to
+the container's own.
+
+## What this deliberately does not do
+
+- **No killswitch.** Blocking non-tunnel egress needs `iptables`, which is not
+  in the image, and would cut Claude Code's API traffic whenever the tunnel is
+  down. If the user needs guaranteed egress rather than convenient egress, say
+  so plainly rather than improvising one — it is a real design decision.
+- **No autostart.** There is no service manager in the container and Triple-C
+  has no start hook, so nothing can re-establish the tunnel automatically.
+- **Not PIA's desktop client.** `pia-daemon` and `piactl` are installable but
+  cannot work headless: the daemon never accepts a client connection without
+  the GUI, and `piactl --help` states that connecting requires it. If you find
+  one installed, it is not a working alternative to this script.
