141f54e51d chore(core): mark the agent-store status formatter DELIBERATE-LITERAL (census 101→99) (#3063)
Fleet phase. `packages/core/src/agent-store.ts` was the **last** census
file with no branch, worktree, or open PR against it. Claim published by
pushing the branch before starting.

## Census before / after

| | total | this file |
|---|---|---|
| before | **101** | 2 |
| after | **99** | 0 |

`--strict` exits 0, baseline re-recorded. **Reclassification, not
conversion** — the line is unchanged.

## Already decided, in prose the census cannot read

The site was flagged earlier today by another pass, as `FLAGGED AND LEFT
COUNTED`: a pure formatter over `Pick<Task, "column">` with no store and
no task id, whose output is a human-readable status line. On a renamed
board it falls through to `(<column>)` — still accurate, just less
specific. Converting it would mean threading a lane resolution into a
string builder.

That reasoning is right and I did not revisit it. The only gap was
mechanical: a prose note is invisible to the tool, so the site kept
reading as backlog.

## This completes the sweep of unclaimed files

Third and last of these. Together with #3056 (fallback arms) and #3060
(dead sync path), **every census file that was unclaimed this phase has
now been examined, and not one of them needed a conversion.** Each was
either a three-state fallback arm — where the legacy id is the answer
when resolution fails, and removing it would break the caller — or a
site a previous pass had already reviewed and deliberately kept.

That is the finding worth carrying forward. The remaining **99** is not
a work queue: a meaningful share is correct code the tool cannot
distinguish from owed work, and every fleet pass pays to re-derive it.
Since all workers rank by the same `byFile` output, we also converge on
the same top file — which is how `self-healing.ts` drew three parallel
conversions, two of which are now unmergeable.

Two cheap changes would fix both symptoms:
1. **Mark reviewed-and-kept sites** so the count means *conversions
owed*. Two lines each.
2. **Push the branch at claim time** so `git ls-remote` is authoritative
before work starts. Costs nothing; I did it for all three of these.

## Verification

- `census --strict` exit 0; `tsc --noEmit` **0 errors**
- `check:fnxc-future-dates`, `check:lane-wiring` — exit 0
- Comment-only diff; no behaviour change

581e6fba43 chore(core): mark the async-mission fallback arms DELIBERATE-LITERAL (census 108→106) (#3056)
Fleet phase. Claimed `packages/core/src/async-mission-store-queries.ts`
— **the only census file with no branch, no worktree, and no open PR
against it.** Claim published by pushing the branch before doing any
work.

## Census before / after

| | total | this file | deliberate |
|---|---|---|---|
| before | **108** | 2 | 128 |
| after | **106** | 0 | **130** |

`--strict` exits 0, baseline re-recorded in the same commit.

**This is a reclassification, not a conversion.** The same two lines are
still there. A reader comparing 108 → 106 against my #3047's 126 → 121
should know only the latter changed behaviour.

## Why marking is the right answer here

Both sites are the **fallback arm** of the three-state rule:

```ts
terminalColumns?.complete ? terminalColumns.complete.has(column) : column === "done";
```

`terminalColumns` undefined means the caller could not resolve lanes.
The legacy id is then the only answer that keeps the query working at
all — converting it would delete the fallback and make an unresolvable
caller return nothing. The census counts the literal, but **the literal
is the design**.

The file's own comment shows a previous worker already reached this
conclusion. Nothing recorded it in a form the tool reads, so it stayed
in `byFile` as apparent backlog for the next pass to re-derive.

## The finding this makes concrete

I checked five unclaimed files this phase (`agent-store`,
`github-tracking-state`, `planner-overseer`, `auto-merge-finalization`,
this one). **Every site in them was either a fallback arm or an
already-documented deliberate leave** — `agent-store.ts:236` carries a
comment from today's fleet phase explaining why it stays.

So the remaining count is not a work queue. A meaningful share is
correct code the tool cannot distinguish from owed work, and each fleet
pass pays to re-derive that. Marking them is cheap, mechanical, and
makes the number mean "conversions owed" — which is what every worker
reads it as when picking a cluster.

I marked only the file I claimed. The others belong to whoever holds
them.

## Verification

- `census --strict` exit 0; `tsc --noEmit` **0 errors**
- `check:fnxc-future-dates`, `check:lane-wiring`,
`check:sql-column-literals`, `check:inert-flag-seams` — all exit 0
- No behaviour change: the two expressions are byte-identical, only
comments added

## Note on the marker's granularity

The first marker covered only `isComplete` — the census attaches markers
by *preceding comment*, so the sibling `isArchived` needed its own.
Caught by re-running the census (2 → 1, not 2 → 0) rather than by
reading. Worth knowing before marking a group of related literals.

bdedb6cf1a gate: fail the build on a NEW inert sync-lane conversion (#3062)
## Claim, and why it turned into a gate

I claimed the largest unclaimed unflagged cluster, `executor.ts` (4
guards at 3557/3581/3632/3642). All four are conditions of a
**synchronous** `store.on("task:moved", …)` listener — the same class as
`scheduler.ts`. Converting them needs either an `await` in a sync
prologue or the sync resolver, and the sync resolver is inert.

`executor.ts` already says so, at line 10459, dated 2026-07-30:

> **THE SYNCHRONOUS RESOLVER IS A NO-OP IN PRODUCTION.** … every
sync-resolved conversion resolves the DEFAULT workflow and answers with
the legacy ids no matter what board the task is on. That makes a sync
conversion cosmetic: the census counts it as converted, `--strict` goes
down by one, and the guard behaves exactly as the literal did. **Worse
than leaving the literal, because the number says the site is done.**

The next day, #3051 did exactly that to ten `scheduler.ts` arms. Census
fell by ten; nothing changed on any board (refuted live in #3058).

So the finding was already written down, in the file a converter would
be reading, in capitals — and the fleet phase produced the defect
anyway. **A comment cannot fail a build.** Converting `executor.ts`'s
four the only available way would have made me the third instance. I
flagged them and built the guard instead.

## What the check does

Per file: finds functions reaching `resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync`, the
locals assigned from them, and the `===`/`!==` guards consuming those
roles. Baselined per file; **fails on a rise.**

Not zero, deliberately. The existing sync guards are real and documented
— the scheduler's listeners genuinely cannot `await` today and their
authors said so. Demanding zero forces a revert or a day-one exemption
marker. What must not happen is *more* literals quietly becoming
inert-resolved.

Complements `check-inert-flag-seams.mjs`, which catches the opposite
shape (a lane parameter **no** caller supplies). This catches a
parameter that **is** supplied, from a source that always answers the
same thing — which passes that check cleanly.

## Why the shape is invisible

The obvious reading is wrong, and it is what makes this survive review.
The helper does **not** receive `undefined` and fall through to `??
"in-review"`. It receives a **real IR that resolves real traits** — the
default board's — so it answers with full confidence and the `??` arms
beside it are dead code.

```
tsc passes         the value is a string, correctly typed
tests pass         on the default board the constant answer IS the right answer
the census DROPS   it counts comparisons against literals, and the literal really is gone
```

## Mutation evidence — including one against this check itself

| Mutant | Result |
|---|---|
| baseline | exit 0, 20 guards in `scheduler.ts` |
| convert one more literal to a sync-resolved lane (the #3051 move) |
**exit 1, 20 → 21** |
| convert the same literal to an **async**-resolved lane | exit 0 —
correctly silent |

The first draft **failed its own mutation test**: it matched only the
local-variable spelling (`const parked = resolveX(...)` then
`parked.review`), which is what #3051 used, and the inline spelling
`resolveX(store, id).review` walked straight past it while being exactly
as inert. A ratchet one rewrite evades is worse than none, because the
green result reads as proof. Both spellings now count.

## Limits, stated so nobody over-trusts it

Sources are matched **within a file by function name**, so a helper
imported from another module is not followed — this finds the dominant
local-helper shape and will miss a cross-module one
(`resolvePlannerLanes`, consumed in `executor.ts`/`triage.ts`, is
currently outside its reach). It proves a guard consumes a sync-resolved
answer, not that the answer is wrong for every caller. Tests are
excluded. Treat a report as a pointer to investigate.

## Census before / after

```
before:  COLUMN guards (the backlog):   104
after:   COLUMN guards (the backlog):   104
```

Unchanged by design — this converts nothing. It stops the count from
moving for the wrong reason.

Worth recording alongside it, measured across the current backlog: **21
of 104 already carry an explicit flag note**, **51 are
`self-healing.ts`** (concurrently claimed by **#3055, #3050 and #3049**
— three PRs, one file, still worth de-conflicting), and **28 are
genuinely unclaimed and unflagged**, the largest being these
`executor.ts` four. The cluster-sized work is close to exhausted; what
is left is scattered and mostly blocked, which is the pressure that
produced #3051.

## Verification

`test:gate` exit 0 · `pnpm lint` clean · lifecycle-column census exit 0
· `pnpm check:inert-sync-lanes` exit 0. No production file touched.

af470f7c05 convert(engine): self-healing lane cluster 56 -> 38 guards (repo 126 -> 108) (#3049)
## Census before / after

```
                                    before    after
self-healing.ts column guards          56        38
repo-wide COLUMN guards (backlog)     126       108
```

`self-healing.ts` was the largest single cluster by a wide margin — 56
guards against 12 in the next file. Baseline re-recorded in the same
commit; `--strict` green.

## Converted: 15 guards across 11 sweeps

Existing helpers only — `resolveProjectColumnsForRoles` with
`TERMINAL_ROLES` / `REVIEW_ROLES` / `countsTowardWip` / `hold` /
`archived`, the same shape this file already uses. No new helper, no new
resolution pattern.

What each was silently doing on a renamed board:

| sweep | behaviour before |
| --- | --- |
| `archiveStaleDoneTasks` | **both** guards inert, so every card counted
as an active dependent and the sweep archived **nothing at all** |
| `reconcileDependencyBlockingLeases` | no holder matched, so a stale
file-scope lease blocking an unmet dependency was never cleared |
| `reconcileCompletedBlockedTasks` | work whose blocker had cleared
stayed parked instead of advancing |
| `reconcileInReviewUnmetDependencies` | a card sat in review with unmet
dependencies and no rebound |
| `reclaimStaleActiveBranches` | archived cards were eligible for branch
reclaim |
| `reconcileInReviewBranchRebind` | the rebind list was empty |
| `autoReboundPausedScopeDecayDetailed` | no card was ever seen as
executing |
| `detectStalledCards` | finished cards counted as stall candidates |
| `recoverApprovedStrandedAiMergeCommit`,
`recoverDriftedAgentTaskLinks`, `cleanupStaleTempMergeWorktrees` | same
shape |

**Reused rather than duplicated:** `recoverWedgedActiveMerge` already
resolves `wedgedReviewColumns` via `resolveReviewColumnsFor` three lines
above the site I was converting, so the site now uses it instead of a
second resolution of the same question.

## One site I converted and then reverted

`clearStaleBlockedBy`'s memo closure carries an FNXC note stating the
literal is **deliberate**: the closure only decides whether to re-log an
already-logged blocker, so a renamed board costs a duplicate log line —
not a wrong lifecycle decision — and restructuring a sweep's control
flow to convert a logging decision is the wrong trade.

I read that note *after* editing the line. Restored.

Worth flagging separately: **it has the reasoning but no
`DELIBERATE-LITERAL` marker**, so the census keeps counting it and it
re-appears in the backlog as if unexamined. That is a marker gap, not a
conversion gap — the next person will make the same mistake I did.

## Not converted — flagged, not guessed

Ten of the twenty-four remaining sites are in **sync predicates with no
resolution seam**:

- `classifyPausedAbortWorkflowRecovery` (3)
- the `start()` task-moved listener (5) — compares event `from`/`to`
columns inside a sync callback
- `isWorkspaceOwnerLive` (1)
- `isPhantomExecutorBinding` (1)

Converting these means threading a flags parameter down from every
caller — precisely the unwired-optional-parameter shape this program
keeps finding inert (five were live on `main` at once per
`unwired-lane-parameter-guard`). They need a decision about *where the
resolution lives*, not a guess from me.

The other **14** are in async sweeps with a seam available and are
ordinary follow-on work in this same file.

## Verification (measured)

- self-healing suites — **816 passed / 41 files**
- `tsc --noEmit`, `eslint` — clean
- `pnpm test:gate` — green
- `lifecycle-column-census --strict`, `check-lane-wiring`,
`check-sql-column-literals`, `check-inert-flag-seams`,
`check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

No changeset: `@fusion/engine` is private.

06717ac3fa refactor(engine): resolve replan-target's advancement test by role (fleet, 4 sites) (#3052)
## Census

| | column guards |
|---|---|
| before | **126** |
| after | **122** |

`replan-target.ts`: **4 → 0**, and it drops out of the top-files list.
Baseline re-recorded in the same PR, as the ratchet requires.

## What changed

`hasAdvancedPastPlanning` asked "has this card moved past planning" as
four literal comparisons — `in-progress`, `in-review`, `done`,
`archived`. It now asks the same question in roles, from lanes the
**caller** resolves.

## Caller-resolved is the whole point

The module's sync twin `resolvePlannerLanes` reads
`store.resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync`, which returns the **default workflow
IR for every task under PostgreSQL**. Converting through it would have
improved the census while answering about a board the card isn't on —
the second failure shape in the learnings doc, already proven at this
exact seam by
`workflow-planner-lanes-sync-vs-async-live-e2e.pg.test.ts`.

The only production caller is `async`, so it uses
`resolvePlannerLanesForTaskAsync`.

**The caller's own inert resolution is fixed too**, not just the four
arms: `releasedToTodo` compared against `resolvePlannerLanes(...).hold`
— the sync twin — so it read `todo` on every board regardless of
vocabulary. One async resolution now supplies the planner column, the
merged-planning column and the forward lanes.

## Flagged, not guessed

The archive lane is a **separate argument** rather than a fifth
`PlannerLanes` role. Adding the field surfaced a genuine divergence
between the sync and async twins — `_workflow-vocabulary-fixture` models
no archive lane, so they disagree there — and that fixture backs **37
test files**. That divergence deserves its own change with its own
evidence; forcing it through a conversion PR would have meant editing a
37-file fixture to make my own change pass.

## Two larger clusters I did NOT claim, with reasons

I went by census size first and verified before writing:

- **`self-healing.ts` (56 guards, 44% of the backlog)** — already
claimed. Three branches hold it, one checked out in another worktree
(`convert/self-healing-lane-cluster-u7`). I'd drafted four sibling role
helpers before checking; reverted rather than collide.
- **`scheduler.ts` (12 guards)** — blocked by design and already
documented at line 907 by a prior fleet worker. The `task:moved` handler
is `async` but its **prologue is not**: no `await` between entry and the
terminal-blocker branch ~55 lines down, so hoisting a resolution turns
the prologue into a microtask and reorders this listener against every
other synchronous subscriber ("verified, not assumed"). Lazy resolution
doesn't help — the *condition* needs the lanes. Unblocking needs the
emitter to carry resolved lanes on the payload, which is a design change
rather than a conversion.

`restart-recovery-coordinator.ts`'s 4 sites are the trait-fallback arms
the census already counts as converted — converting those would delete
the legacy fallback, not add resolution.

## Measured

| check | result |
|---|---|
| replan + planner-lane suites | 11 files, **102 tests green** |
| triage suites | **374 tests green** |
| five gates + strict census | green; `tsc` clean |
| unconverted callers | byte-identical — absent lanes fall back to
`LEGACY_PLANNER_LANES`, absent `archivedColumn` keeps the legacy id |

c9516dbd09 fix(engine): resolve archiveStaleDoneTasks lane guards by role (fleet: self-healing 56→51) (#3047)
Fleet phase. Claimed **`packages/engine/src/self-healing.ts`** — the
largest cluster at **56 of 126** total sites. Verified unclaimed first:
no open PR touches the file and no active worktree held a branch on it.

## Census before / after

| | total | self-healing.ts |
|---|---|---|
| before | **126** | **56** |
| after | **121** | **51** |

`census --strict` exits 0; baseline re-recorded in this commit so the
retired allowances cannot be regrown into.

## What converted, and why each role

`archiveStaleDoneTasks` asked "has this card finished?" by comparing
column ids, so on a renamed board it treated every finished card as live
and archived nothing — the sweep was inert on exactly the boards this
program exists to support.

- **active-dependents scan** and **temp-worktree age gate** →
`TERMINAL_ROLES` (complete ∪ archived): both ask "is this card done
with, in any sense?"
- **staleness filter** → `complete` **alone**: this sweep *archives*
finished cards, so an already-archived card is not a candidate. Using
the terminal pair here would have made the sweep consider its own
output.

**Union, not per-task, deliberately.** Over-inclusion is free at these
sites because the per-card check still discards, and the union needs no
per-task workflow selection — the failure mode
`resolveWorkflowIrForTask` has, where a card with no recorded selection
silently resolves to the built-in board. Recorded in
`docs/solutions/workflow-learnings/project-union-versus-per-task-lanes.md`.

## The half-converted state is the interesting part

Converting only the first two guards made `archiveStaleDoneTasks`
**register as a converted sweep** — the existing ratchet suite grew from
**36 to 38 tests** — and it then failed for still carrying `t.column !==
"done"`.

That is the failure mode worth naming: a partial conversion is worse
than none, because the function now *looks* converted (it calls the
resolver, it reads as role-aware) while one guard still pins it to the
legacy vocabulary. Finishing the function turned it green. I would not
have caught it from the diff.

## Verification

- `self-healing` suites — **807 pass** (41 files)
- `tsc --noEmit` — **0 errors**
- `census --strict`, `check:lane-wiring`, `check:fnxc-future-dates`,
`check:inert-flag-seams`, `check:sql-column-literals` — all exit 0

## Flagged, not guessed — the remaining 51

Deliberately left, each for a stated reason rather than an omission:

1. **Move-transition matrices** (~1489–1504): `from`/`to` pairs encoding
a legal-transition graph (`in-progress → todo|in-review|done|archived`).
These are the *shape* of the lifecycle, not a lane lookup; converting
them needs a transition-role model that does not exist yet. Guessing
here would encode a wrong graph.
2. **`getLiveTaskColumn` comparisons** (~1398, 5313–5342): compared
against a normalizing accessor that manufactures `"archived"` for
soft-deleted rows. Those are protocol values, not column ids —
converting them changes what the sentinel means.
3. **Sites without store access** in scope (several module-level
predicates): need the resolved set threaded in as a parameter, which is
a seam change per call site, not a substitution.
4. **`todo` requeue targets** (1927, 6181, 6303, 12060–12064): these
pick a destination, so they want the single `intake`/`hold` answer from
`resolveLifecycleColumns`, not a set — different arity, and several are
inside sweeps whose rebound semantics I would be changing rather than
preserving.

Each is a real conversion; none is a one-line substitution, and doing
them blind is how a guard count drops while behaviour gets worse.

4878bda197 fix(core): the mission bootstrap duplicate was archived into a lane the board does not declare (#3046)
## Invisible to both censuses

`archiveDefinedFeatureBootstrapDuplicate` writes `tasks.column`
**directly** rather than through `moveTask`:

```ts
.set({ column: "archived", updatedAt: … })
```

- the **lifecycle census** reads comparisons — an assignment isn't one
- the **move-target census** reads `moveTask` call arguments — this
never calls it

So on a board whose archive lane is renamed, the duplicate landed in a
column that workflow doesn't declare: a card in a lane the board can't
render, from a path that runs during ordinary feature bootstrap.

## Reuses the helper this class already has

`archivedLanesFor(taskId)` was added for the guards further up the same
file. It returns the legacy id when the task has no resolvable workflow,
so an **unconverted board is byte-identical**. No new resolution
machinery — the two `<> 'archived'` guards become `notInArray(column,
[...lanes])` and the write targets the resolved lane.

A board declaring several archive lanes is arbitrated by taking the
first, the same choice `resolveLifecycleColumns` makes. Multiple archive
lanes aren't a shape the builtin lineages produce.

## Measured

| check | result |
|---|---|
| mission-store PG suite | **36 → 38**, all green |
| new pair | differential — `filed` collides with no legacy id, and the
default-lineage control still lands in `archived` |
| mutation (hardcode the target back) | fails the renamed case |
| SQL literal gate · `tsc` | green |

## How this was found

Measuring the literal-column-**write** population for #2839: 51 raw
sites, of which 20 are the four builtin workflow IRs declaring their own
columns (correct by definition) and several more are archive-*entry
record* fields rather than board columns. This is the one I verified is
a real board write on a live path.

Worth noting the measurement itself was wrong twice first — my glob was
`packages/*/src/**/*.ts`, which requires a subdirectory and silently
skipped every top-level file in `src/` (including this one), and my
script printed only the first 14 findings so the grouping was over a
truncated list. Same scope-blindness class as #3000 and #3002, this time
in a throwaway scanner.

8b82e77fbf chore(core): delete liveParentFilter — no caller, and it carried a legacy lane literal (#3042)
Found while enumerating archive-exclusion sites for #3041.

## Unambiguously dead

`liveParentFilter` has exactly **one** reference in the repo: its own
definition.

- not exported from `index.ts` or `index.gate.ts`
- no test imports it
- no production code calls it

It nonetheless contained `column != 'archived'`, so it was one of the 22
sites the SQL column-literal gate tracks.

## Why delete rather than convert

Converting it would mean adding lane resolution to code nothing runs —
risk with no behaviour. That's the same argument #3041 makes for *not*
converting the other two dead sites; deleting is the version of it that
also removes the literal.

## The gate it documents is not being deleted

Its docblock describes the document/artifact visibility gate
(VAL-CROSS-015). That gate is real and still enforced — by the inline
conditions inside `listLiveTaskDocuments` and `listLiveArtifacts`, which
is presumably why this helper was never wired up in the first place.
Only the unused composition goes.

## Measured

| check | result |
|---|---|
| SQL literal population | **22 → 21**; the gate ratcheted its own
baseline down and asked for the commit, included here |
| `taskstore-remaining.test.ts` (archive-lineage suite) | **27 tests
green** |
| six gates + `tsc` | green |

## Not deleted, deliberately

`listLiveTaskDocuments` and `listLiveArtifacts` are referenced **only**
by that test file. That's a weaker signal than zero references — someone
may have written them ahead of a consumer. Their literals stay counted,
which is the honest state for code whose intent I can't read from the
repo.

35729699b8 fix(dashboard): Lane and ListView sorted every column with the LEGACY role defaults (wrong card order on renamed boards) (#3016)
`sortTasksForDisplayColumn` takes four role answers and defaults each to
the legacy id. Its own header names the callers that never supplied
them:

> *"defaults to the legacy id so the callers that do not resolve flags
(Lane, ListView) keep today's behaviour exactly."*

On a renamed board, today's behaviour is the **wrong order**, silently:

| lane | what is lost |
|---|---|
| hold | priority-then-FIFO queue order — an urgent card is no longer
visibly next |
| complete | completion-date ordering |
| review | the merging card no longer floats to the top |

Nothing throws, nothing logs. The cards are simply in the wrong order —
which is exactly why this survived every existing test in these files:
their fixtures use the built-in ids, where the defaults happen to be
right.

`Board.tsx` already resolves these from `column.flags`. Mirrored here
rather than answered a second way, including its `complete && !archived`
done-like rule.

## Reverted

All **3** new `Lane` cases fail. Each picks inputs where the role order
and the generic fallback **disagree**:

- hold — equal priority, so role order is created-at and the fallback is
task-id
- complete — `columnMovedAt` DESC vs task-id ascending
- review — a `merging` card, which the fallback ignores entirely

**My first draft asserted urgent-first and passed with the fix
reverted.** The generic sort also puts urgent first, so the assertion
discriminated nothing. Recording that because it is the second time this
shape has caught me: an assertion that is *true* is not the same as an
assertion that is *load-bearing*.

## Coverage I do not have

`ListView`'s identical wiring has **no component test**. Its harness
stubs `fetchBoardWorkflows` with a never-resolving promise, and
`listColumns` derives from the resolved workflow — so a renamed board is
not drivable there without reworking that stub, which several other
tests in the file depend on. The call site is covered structurally by
the lane-wiring ratchet (baseline 19 → 17) and by the helper's own unit
tests, but that is a structural guarantee, not a behavioural one. I
would rather say so than imply the two callers are equally proven.

## Verification

Lane + ListView + taskSorting + Board **357 passed** · `pnpm test:gate`
161 + 13 + 487 + 71 · lint · lifecycle census `--strict` · lane-wiring ·

e9b24b69e8 fix(dashboard): the duplicate banner judged the canonical by legacy lane ids (#3032)
Found by applying the check I proposed on #3028: **re-test each
`ALLOWED_OMISSIONS` entry — does the omission still fail once the excuse
is removed?** It found a stale excuse on its first run.

## The entry's blocker was never tested

```
"…TaskDetailModal.tsx::isNearDuplicateCanonicalInactive"
  reason: "…Correct supply needs a fetch — a data change. See the note at the site."
```

The reasoning gets the hard part right: passing `detailColumnFlags`
would answer about the **modal's** task, not the canonical, and would
type-check while reading as a conversion. Rejecting that is correct.

Then it concludes the seam needs a fetch — without checking what is in
scope.

- `columnFlagsByTaskId` is **already a prop of this component**
(declared `:367`, destructured `:727`, used for the fan-out map at
`:3718`), keyed by task id.
- The canonical is `tasks.find((c) => c.id === nearDuplicateOf)` — drawn
from the same loaded set the map covers. If the banner can render at
all, the canonical is in `tasks`.

So `columnFlagsByTaskId?.get(canonical.id)` is the canonical's own
flags, no fetch. **`Column.tsx:307` already does exactly this**, with a
comment making the same point about not reusing the row's flags — a
sibling call site of the same function, solved.

## What was broken

The banner's "this duplicates X" warning stayed up when the canonical
had landed in a **renamed** complete lane, because
`isNearDuplicateCanonicalInactive` fell back to the legacy ids and never
saw it as finished. Same user-visible symptom #2997 fixed for the card
chip; this is the modal.

## Verification

| state | result |
|---|---|
| clean | seams gate exit 0; 123/123 across `TaskDetailModal.rendering`
+ `Column.neardup-flags-arrival` |
| revert the supply | **gate exit 1** —
`isNearDuplicateCanonicalInactive() — supplied by 10/11 call sites;
omitted at TaskDetailModal.tsx:1 (of 2)` |

That mutation is the point: with the allow-list entry present, this
exact omission passed silently. It is now defended by the gate rather
than excused by it.

`tsc -p tsconfig.app.json` 0 errors in the file, lint clean, FNXC gate
exit 0.

## The general point

This is the second allow-list entry in two PRs whose stated blocker was
wrong — #3028 removed the other one (*"needs a published-API change"*;
the SDK is `private: true` and every consumer was in-repo).

An `ALLOWED_OMISSIONS` entry is a deferral **carrying a gate's
authority**. It reads as settled, it lives inside the checker, and it
turns "nobody tested this" into "someone tested it and concluded no". A
stale baseline *number* invites a recount; a stale *paragraph* invites
agreement. Both entries this gate carried were stale, and the note at
this call site had even been revised once — the revision corrected which
flags were wrong to pass, and left the untested "needs a fetch"
conclusion standing.

Worth a periodic sweep of the remaining entries as they accumulate; with
these two gone the list is empty, so the cheapest time to
institutionalise it is now.

a460a9bbc0 fix(plugins,dashboard): the dependency graph drew every card with the LEGACY lane vocabulary (#3029)
## The third producer of unflagged cards — the one a host-side fix could
not reach

#3025 fixed the two producers that go through `renderTaskCard`.
`GraphTaskNode` is a third: it imports `TaskCard` **directly** through
the plugin's interop shim, so that fix bypassed it and every role helper
inside a graph card kept reading the legacy ids.

The same component also called the stuck predicate without its flags:

```ts
const isStuck = isTaskStuck(task, taskStuckTimeoutMs, lastFetchTimeMs);   // no columnFlags
```

so `isWipColumnRole` fell back to the literal and **no card in the graph
could ever be stuck on a renamed board**. Because `isStuck` gates
`isActive`, a wedged card rendered with the **active** styling — the
graph reported *"running"* about a task that had not moved in hours,
while the main board showed the same card as stuck.

That asymmetry between two views of one task is the defect, and it is
what the new test pins.

## One cause, so one fix

Both symptoms came from the same gap: `PluginDashboardViewContext`
exposed `tasks` and nothing about the board's vocabulary. It now carries
`columnFlagsByTaskId` — the same per-task map `renderTaskCard` already
uses, **two lines away in the same object literal**.

## I filed this twice as blocked on a public-API change. It was not.

```
packages/dashboard                        @fusion/dashboard                        private: true
packages/plugin-sdk                       @fusion/plugin-sdk                       private: true
plugins/fusion-plugin-dependency-graph    @fusion-plugin-examples/dependency-graph private: true
```

No published surface anywhere in the path — three in-repo private
packages and a hand-written `.d.ts`. **#3026 landed the general form of
that mistake while I was still making it**: a deferral's stated blocker
is a claim, and mine decayed unchecked until I finally measured it.

## Two type decisions worth reviewing

- **`Partial<TraitFlags>`** in the plugin-facing type, not the
dashboard's `ExecutorColumnFlags` — that module's own header restricts
it to `@fusion/core` and `react` imports so external plugin builds can
consume it. Same runtime object either way.
- **`MainContentProps.columnFlagsByTaskId` widened** from `{complete,
archived, intake, hold}` to the flags the map really carries. It is
built from `workflow.columns.find(...).flags`, so the four-flag
declaration was a narrower view than the value — and `countsTowardWip`,
which every wip predicate needs, was invisible through it. That narrow
type is why threading this looked impossible at first.

Absent still means legacy, matching how the host treats remote rows and
off-board columns: the degraded answer is the documented literal, never
*"this board has no wip lane"*.

## Revert proof

Dropping the 4th argument:

```
AssertionError: expected 'graph-task-node graph-task-node--acti…' not to contain 'graph-task-node--active'
      Tests  1 failed | 26 passed (27)
```

The paired case (a fresh legacy `in-progress` card still reads active)
passes both ways by design — it guards against over-detection, so I am
not counting it as coverage.

The gate agrees independently:
`plugins/fusion-plugin-dependency-graph/src/GraphTaskNode.tsx: 1 -> 0`,
baseline re-recorded 16 → 15 in the same commit.

## Verification (measured)

- plugin suite — **185 passed / 20 files**
- dashboard `dashboard/` + `plugins/` suites — **48 passed / 6 files**
- `tsc --noEmit` clean in both packages; `pnpm lint` clean
- `lifecycle-column-census --strict`, `check-lane-wiring` (15, none
added), `check-sql-column-literals`, `check-inert-flag-seams`,
`check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

No changeset: all three packages are `private: true`.

5897d87e95 fix(gate): the lane census judged a call against a signature it never had (the false positive #3013's merge introduced) (#3021)
#3013's merge of same-named declarations fixed a false **negative** and
introduced a false **positive**.

`ModelSelectorTab` declares its own two-parameter
`resolveEffectiveExecutor(task, settings)` — a pass-through with nothing
lane-related — while an unrelated exported function of the same name in
`effective-model-resolution.ts` takes `columnFlags`. Both local calls
were reported unwired against a signature they have never had.

Only **exported** declarations enter the accepting map, so the rule is
exact: if the calling file declares the name itself and the map entry
came from a different file, the call resolves to the local declaration
and is not a lane call here.

## The version I did not ship

My first attempt re-ran the detector over the single calling file and
used that result. It scored *better* on this tree — **19 → 16** instead
of 19 → 17, also clearing `bucket-mapping.ts` — and I threw it away.

A single-file pass cannot resolve an **imported** options interface. A
locally-declared function with an imported context type would quietly
stop being lane-accepting, and every call to it would stop being
checked. That is a false negative, which is the one failure a ratchet
must not have; the better-looking number came from the gate seeing less.
The global pass still does all type resolution here — only the *choice*
of declaration is local.

## Measured

| | |
|---|---|
| new tests | 3 |
| against the old census | **1 of 3 fails** — the positive |
| baseline | **19 → 17**, exactly the two `ModelSelectorTab` sites |

Both negatives pass either way and they are the ones that matter: a file
declaring its **own** exported lane function is not shadowed by itself,
and a file declaring nothing is judged normally. Shadowing must not
become a way to disappear a genuine unwired call.

## Still flagged, honestly

`bucket-mapping.ts:75` stays in the baseline. `bucketForTask(task:
TaskItem)` is only lane-accepting because `TaskItem` *declares*
`columnFlags` — the lane data rides on the domain object, so passing
`task` forwards it inherently. That is a different limitation
(options-bag vs domain-entity parameters) and I have not tried to fix it
here; it accounts for 2 of the remaining 17 along with
`otherBucketSecondaryLabel`.

## Verification

`node --test scripts/__tests__/check-lane-wiring.test.mjs` **19 passed**
· `pnpm test:gate` 13 + 161 + 487 + 71 · lint · lifecycle census
`--strict` · lane-wiring · fnxc-dates (TZ=UTC) · changesets — green.

6f936f2de7 fix(cli): the node-override guard never fired on a renamed board, so mid-flight changes were allowed (#3019)
## The node-override guard never fired on a renamed board

`fn_task_update` called the guard with no options:

```ts
const validation = validateNodeOverrideChange(task, normalizedNodeId ?? null);
```

so `wipColumns` fell back to its documented default of
`{"in-progress"}`. On a board whose WIP lane is named anything else,
`wipColumns.has(task.column)` is false, the mid-flight check passes, and
**an operator can change the node override on a running task** —
precisely what that guard exists to refuse, in its own words:

> "Is this task executing right now?" — keyed on the literal, a renamed
board let an operator change the node override MID-FLIGHT on a running
task, which is exactly what this guard exists to refuse.

That note is attached to the `wipColumns` option added for this purpose.
The CLI simply never passed it.

## Two assumptions in the guard's own docs that did not hold

```
Both callers supply them. An omitted set keeps the legacy id, which is what a caller
without cheap IR access (a CLI tool, a route with only a task row) still gets.
```

1. **"Both callers"** — this is a *third* one, and it was in
`check-lane-wiring`'s known-unwired baseline the whole time.
2. **"a CLI tool … without cheap IR access"** — this handler is async
and has already awaited `store.getTask`, so one more resolve costs
exactly what `resolveTaskLifecycleColumns` already costs elsewhere **in
this same file** (the linked-lineage label at ~1239). The assumption was
reasonable in general and wrong here.

Passed present-but-conditionally-valued rather than as a conditional
argument: an omitted set still keeps the documented legacy default, and
only that shape is visible to `lane-wiring-census`, which matches an
object-literal argument and cannot see a ternary.

## Coverage — stated rather than implied

**There is no new unit test.** The regression guard is the ratchet
itself, and it is a real revert-proof: with the wiring removed,

```
[check-lane-wiring] call sites not passing a resolved lane argument INCREASED:
  packages/cli/src/extension.ts: 1 unwired now, baseline allows 0
```

Verified by actually reverting it, not by assuming. Baseline re-recorded
19 → 18 in the same commit, so the allowance cannot be regrown into.

A behavioural test would need a custom workflow definition persisted
*and* selected inside the integration harness to get a card resting in a
renamed WIP lane. That is worth doing and I would take it as follow-up
harness work — but it is not part of this fix, and I would rather name
the gap than let "85 passed" imply coverage I did not write.

## Verification (measured)

- **85 passed** across `extension.test.ts`,
`extension-experiment-finalize.test.ts`,
`task-list-board-columns.test.ts`
- `tsc --noEmit`, `eslint` — clean
- `check-lane-wiring` (18, none added), `lifecycle-column-census
--strict`, `check-inert-flag-seams`, `check-fnxc-future-dates`,
`check:changesets` — green

Changeset included (`patch`): `packages/cli` is the published
`@runfusion/fusion` and this changes guard behaviour operators rely on.

3a016b1f17 fix(scripts): four FNXC stamps carried hour 26, and main has been red on them (#3010)
## `main` is currently red on `check-fnxc-future-dates`

Four stamps read `2026-07-30-26:10` — an hour that cannot exist.

They're exactly what #2995 taught this gate to catch. That PR landed the
hour validation (`00-23`) *after* #2999 had already merged these four,
so the gate started reporting a defect that was already sitting there
rather than one introduced afterwards. **The guard is working**; nothing
was checking before it.

```
scripts/lib/backend-db.mjs:41
scripts/reconcile-task-state-consistency.mjs:8, :51
scripts/__tests__/reconcile-task-state-consistency.test.mjs:109
```

Corrected by **literal normalisation** — 26:10 on the 30th *is* 02:10 on
the 31st — rather than flattening them to an arbitrary in-range hour.
AGENTS.md specifies `yyyy-MM-dd-hh:mm`, and the stamp exists to give a
readable why-does-this-exist trail, so the ordering is the part worth
preserving.

## The baseline tightening rides along, and it's a date rollover

Stamps written yesterday as `2026-07-31` were future *then* and were
baselined as such. Today they're past, so **176 files ratchet to zero**.
Nobody did anything.

The gate rewrites the baseline as a side effect and exits 0, so leaving
it uncommitted dirties the tree on every subsequent run **for everyone**
— which is why it belongs in this commit rather than a later one.
Re-recording on a decrease is the rule this gate and its siblings
already state.

Worth knowing about the design, since I wrote it: this churn recurs
whenever a day boundary passes with future-dated stamps in the baseline,
and it shrinks only as people stop writing them — which is the behaviour
the gate exists to produce. **93 files still carry a non-zero
allowance**, so the drain isn't finished. If it stays noisy once those
clear, the gate's fail-on-tighten contract is the thing to revisit, not
the stamps.

## Measured

| check | result |
|---|---|
| gate | red before, **exit 0 after**, stable across two consecutive
runs |
| baseline | −176/+25 entries, all date-rollover |
| inert-seam · sql-literal · lane-wiring · census | all green |
| reconciler's own suite | green |

## One correction to a claim I made earlier this session

While investigating I reported the gate as hanging for 600s. It wasn't —
the harness killed the process (exit 144) and the empty output made it
look like a stall. The gate completes in seconds. Noting it because I
nearly filed a performance bug against a healthy script.

ffe9898710 fix(gate): the lane-wiring census could not see three of the shapes it asks for (incl. a false positive it started reporting) (#3013)
**The gate could not see three of the shapes it exists to check** —
including the wiring I landed this week in #2990 and #3004. Found by
using it: the baseline still listed `useBlockerFanout.ts`,
`ExecutorStatusBar.tsx`, and `TaskDetailModal.tsx` as unwired *after*
those PRs merged.

### 1. Conditional shapes

Passing lanes only when they resolved is the **correct** way to write
these — an empty trait index means "not loaded yet", not "nothing is
terminal", so the caller must fall through to the documented legacy
default rather than fabricate one. Both idioms that produces were
invisible:

```ts
computeBlockerFanoutMap(tasks, flags ? { columnFlagsByTaskId: flags } : {})   // ConditionalExpression
computeBlockerFanoutMapCore(tasks, N, { ...(flags ? { classify } : {}) })     // SpreadAssignment, name === undefined
```

Either branch supplying the lane now counts. **Neither branch supplying
it is still unwired** — that negative is tested.

### 2. Vocabulary

`columnFlagsByTaskId`, the per-task trait index the dashboard threads,
was never added. It answers every lane question at once, so a call site
dropping it reverts to the legacy vocabulary wholesale — and the gate
would have stayed silent.

### 3. Name collisions — the false positive

Declarations were `set` by name, so the **last one parsed won**. Core's
`computeBlockerFanoutMap(tasks, n, opts)` and the dashboard wrapper
`computeBlockerFanoutMap(tasks, opts)` put their lane options at
**different argument indices**, so core's callers were checked against
the wrapper's signature: `task-priority.ts:141` passes `terminalColumns`
at index 2 and was reported unwired.

I caught this because adding the vocabulary entry in (2) made it appear.
A ratchet that reports a correctly-wired site is worse than one that
misses it — the first person to open one learns the number is noise.
Both shapes are now merged; a call satisfying either counts.

### Measured

| | |
|---|---|
| new tests | **6** — every positive paired with its negative |
| against the old census | **3 of 6 fail** — exactly the three
positives; the negatives pass either way, which is why they exist |
| baseline | **23 → 19** — four sites recognized as *already* wired; no
site newly excused |
| new flags | none |

### Verification

`node --test scripts/__tests__/check-lane-wiring.test.mjs` **16 passed**
· `pnpm test:gate` 161 + 13 + 487 + 71 · lint · lifecycle census
`--strict` · fnxc-dates (TZ=UTC) · changesets — green.

Seven other `scripts/__tests__` files fail on main independently of this
change (`verify-fast`, `dependency-security-floor`,
`engine-vitest-gate-policy`, `plugin-authoring-docs`,
`release-prompt-gate`, `ci-test-shard-timings`,
`workflow-reliability-release-check`). None are in the merge gate and
none are touched here — noting them because I looked, not because this
PR affects them.

f10261f424 fix(scripts): the contamination audit scanned four legacy lanes and claimed it had (#3005)
## An audit that scanned four legacy lanes — and claimed it had

Two halves of the same wrong answer.

**The query allowlisted the lanes:**

```sql
WHERE deleted_at IS NULL AND "column" IN ('triage','todo','in-progress','in-review')
```

On a board whose lanes are named anything else that matches **nothing**,
so the audit scans zero rows and reports zero contamination — a clean
bill of health from a scan that never happened. `triage` is in that list
too, a lane U11 (#2515) deleted.

**And the report asserted the coverage it did not have:**

```js
scannedColumns: ["triage", "todo", "in-progress", "in-review"],
```

printed regardless of what the query returned. When I first surveyed
this script I called that field "the one thing keeping it from being
fully silent" — it turns out it was a **claim, not an observation**, so
it was not keeping it honest at all. It is now derived from the rows
that came back.

## Fix: exclude finished lanes instead of allowlisting active ones

Inverted so the default is the safe one — an unrecognised lane is active
work by assumption and **is** audited; only lanes that genuinely mean
finished drop out. An allowlist fails **closed** (skip everything
unknown), a denylist fails **open** (look at it), and for an audit one
extra finished branch is a far smaller error than auditing nothing.

Filtered in JS rather than by building a dynamic SQL exclusion: it keeps
**one** place deciding what "finished" means, and removes the last
raw-SQL lane literal from this file.

## Revert proof

```
✖ scannedColumns reports the board's real lanes, not a fixed legacy claim
✖ reports each scanned lane once, and nothing at all for an empty board
ℹ pass 1   ℹ fail 2
```

## A demonstration of #3000, for free

This PR removes a 4-literal raw-SQL clause, and
`check-sql-column-literals` here reports **22, unchanged and green** —
because this branch predates #3000 and the gate still walks `packages/`
only. That is precisely the blind spot #3000 closes, reproduced a second
time.

## Merge order

This removes the 4 literals #3000 baselines. Landing this **after**
#3000 drops that count and its gate fails on DECREASE — that gate
auto-rewrites the baseline and asks for the commit, unlike
`check-lane-wiring` which needs an explicit `--update-baseline`. Either
order works; one of them needs a re-record, and I am happy to push it.

## Verification (measured)

- `node --test` — **3 passed / 0 failed** (1 pre-existing + 2 new)
- `node --check`, `eslint` — clean
- `lifecycle-column-census --strict`, `check-lane-wiring`,
`check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

No changeset: root `scripts/` is repo tooling, not part of the published
package.

## Territory status

This was the last item I know of in `scripts/`. The four operator
scripts holding lane assumptions — `recover-stale-blocked-by` (#2992),
`reconcile-task-state-consistency` (#2994),
`reconcile-leaked-soft-deletes` (#2999) and this one — are now either
resolved or, where a script genuinely cannot resolve lanes, made loud
rather than silent.

52a66297fc fix(gate): main is red — normalize #2994's four impossible-hour stamps (#3006)
**`main` is currently red on the FNXC gate.**

```
$ node scripts/check-fnxc-future-dates.mjs   # on origin/main

  scripts/lib/backend-db.mjs: 1
  scripts/__tests__/reconcile-task-state-consistency.test.mjs: 1
exit 1
```

#2994 carried four `2026-07-30-26:10` stamps. I flagged them on that PR
before it merged; #2995 (the hour check) landed first, so the merge
order turned the warning into a red gate rather than a red PR.

Clamped to `23:10` — same rule as the nine before it: hour to `23`,
minutes preserved, so ordering within each file survives. This is a
normalization with a stated rule, not a claim about the true minute.

**Verified:** FNXC gate exit 0, `reconcile-task-state-consistency` 8
pass / 0 fail. Comment-text only.

### Worth fixing at the source

Thirteen impossible-hour stamps across six PRs in two days, and the
hours climb — `24:40` → `25:30` → `26:10`. They are being written as a
continuing sequence past midnight rather than read off a clock, which is
a reasonable instinct and produces an invalid stamp every time.

The trap is that the honest spelling does not work either: a genuine
post-midnight stamp needs *tomorrow's* date, and the gate compares
against the **local** calendar — so `2026-07-31-00:40` written from
UTC-7 is future-dated and fails for a different reason. Clamping to
`23:xx` is currently the only spelling that satisfies both, which is not
obvious and is why this keeps recurring.

If it recurs again, the fix is probably in the error message rather than
more normalization PRs: the gate could name the valid range and the
timezone it compares against, so the next author sees the constraint at
the moment they hit it.

cd237ae760 gate: the SQL column-literal ratchet never scanned scripts/, where the raw SQL actually is (#3000)
## The gate could not see the one place raw SQL is actually written by
hand

`check-sql-column-literals` walked `packages/` only and took `.tsx?`.
Every operator script is a repo-root `.mjs`.

I found it by removing a raw-SQL lane literal in #2999 and watching this
gate report:

```
[check-sql-column-literals] 22 known SQL column literal(s), none added.
```

Unchanged, and green. Its own header promises the opposite — *"a LOWER
count fails too so the baseline is ratcheted down"* — so the silence was
the tell.

**Two changes, and either alone still sees nothing:** the root and the
extension. Adding one without the other scans nothing new and reports a
reassuring zero — the same trap #2978 hit when widening the lane-wiring
census.

## Newly visible: 6 sites, audited not blind-baselined

| site | verdict |
| --- | --- |
| `audit-branch-cross-contamination.mjs:182` — `"column" IN
('triage','todo','in-progress','in-review')` | **real** — the
contamination audit scans only the legacy active lanes, so on a renamed
board it scans nothing and reports no contamination. Read-only, and it
does print its `scannedColumns`, which is the one thing keeping that
from being fully silent. |
| `reconcile-leaked-soft-deletes.mjs:53, :73` | already fixed by
**#2999** — the PR that exposed this gap |

## Proven able to fail, not just to count

A guard that has only ever printed a number is a number. A temporary
`.mjs` holding one forbidden comparison:

```
scripts/zz-probe-tmp.mjs: 1 SQL column literal(s), baseline allows 0
```

and the gate returned to green once removed.

## One claim I withdrew

I initially wrote that the `ScriptKind` move to `JS` for `.mjs` was
needed because *"TSX treats `<` as JSX and would misparse an ordinary
comparison"*. I could not demonstrate it. I tried three JSX-ambiguous
shapes — `x <div> y`, `f<b, c>(d)`, and a literal sandwiched between `<`
and `>` comparisons — and TSX recovered from all three with counts
identical to JS.

So `JS` is used because it is the correct kind for the file, **not**
because a miss was observed, and the code now says exactly that. The
opposite claim would have been easy to make and wrong, and this gate's
whole value is that its statements about its own coverage are true.

## Merge order

**#2999 removes both literals in `reconcile-leaked-soft-deletes.mjs`.**
Landing it *after* this PR drops the count, and this gate fails on
DECREASE (by design), needing a re-record. Merge #2999 first, or say the
word and I will re-record here.

Note the widening is self-protecting afterwards: if someone narrows the
walk back to `packages/`, the recorded `scripts/` entries vanish from
the scan and the gate goes red on decrease.

## Verification (measured)

- gate — green, **28 known / none added** (was 22 across `packages/`
only)
- its own suite — **32 passed**
- `eslint` — clean
- `lifecycle-column-census --strict`, `check-lane-wiring`,
`check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

Gate/tooling only; no product file touched.

1de0141ab8 fix(dashboard): Task Detail's blocking count read the LEGACY lanes (last of the three fan-out surfaces) (#3004)
Third and last of the three surfaces calling the blocker fan-out
wrapper, completing the sweep started in #2990 (Board + Executor bar).

## What was wrong, precisely

The dependent **list** is lane-independent — core pushes `dependentIds`
without consulting lanes — so this section looked broadly right. Two
things beside it are not:

- `overlapBlockedTodoCount`, rendered as **"FN-X is blocking N todo
task(s) via blockedBy overlap"** — counted against the literal `todo`,
so on a renamed board it read **0 while cards were genuinely blocked**.
- the `stale` marker on each blocking dependent — decided against
`terminal`/`review` lanes the operator does not use.

A wrong number sitting beside a right list is the easiest kind to miss,
which is why I checked what the modal actually consumes before deciding
this was worth a PR rather than assuming the whole section was broken.

## Why a prop and not a hook

This was the surface I deferred in #2990 because it had no trait index
in scope. Two options:

- `useBoardWorkflows` inside the modal — rejected. The hook documents
that it does **not** dedupe across consumers: each call installs its own
visibilitychange/focus listeners and its own SSE subscription. That is a
new fetch and subscription per modal open, to answer a question the app
has already answered.
- **Thread the index that already exists** — `App` builds
`footerColumnFlagsByTaskId` for the footer; this forwards it through
`AppModals` as an optional prop. Chosen.

Optional throughout: a card with no entry keeps the documented legacy
fallback, so the remote-node case (where local workflow metadata must
never be applied to foreign ids) and the pre-load window stay
byte-identical.

## Reverted

The new case fails on the rendered text — the modal cannot find `"FN-B
is blocking 2 todo task(s) via blockedBy overlap"`. The pre-existing
legacy-column case above it passes either way, because `todo` satisfies
the literal default; that is exactly why it never caught this.

## Verification

TaskDetailModal.rendering + ExecutorStatusBar + useBlockerFanout **206
passed** · dashboard app suite 11986 passed / 5 skipped (581 files) ·
`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 13 + 487 + 71 · lint · census `--strict` ·
lane-wiring · fnxc-dates · changesets — green.

## One note for whoever owns the FNXC gate

`check-fnxc-future-dates.mjs` **rewrites its baseline as a side effect
and still exits 0**. Today's date roll dropped 183 stamps out of
"future", so any run dirties
`scripts/lib/fnxc-future-dates-baseline.json` in the working tree. It
cost me a stash conflict before I noticed. Not bundled here — it is
repo-wide midnight drift, not this change — but a check that mutates
tracked state on a read is worth a look.

ac67b8d585 fix(scripts): the FN-4000 consistency reconciler failed in BOTH directions on a renamed board (#2994)
## The FN-4000 consistency reconciler failed in *both* directions

`findTaskStateInconsistencies` keyed both checks on legacy lane
literals, and they break in opposite ways:

```js
const hasDoneTransient = task.column === "done" && (status failed || error || worktree || blockedBy || …);
if (task.status === "failed" && task.column !== "in-review") { … }
```

| check | on a renamed board | effect |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `hasDoneTransient` | **never fires** | a finished card still holding
`status:"failed"`, a worktree, a blockedBy or live recovery counters is
never reported and never normalized — precisely the stale state FN-4000
exists to clear |
| `failed-status-outside-in-review` | **fires for every failed card** |
no column equals the literal, so the report lists the whole board |

The second is the more dangerous of the two: a tool that reports nothing
looks broken, but a tool that reports everything looks like it is
working.

## Wiring, and why the resolver is injected rather than built inline

Lanes are resolved **per task** (a board can span workflows) and passed
in. Resolving inside the loop would drag `importCore()` — and therefore
a built `packages/core/dist` — into every unit test of a pure
reconciliation loop.

`main` wires the real resolver whenever it opened a real backend, so
this is **not** the inert optional-parameter shape this migration keeps
finding. A caller injecting its own store (tests) has no staged dist and
falls back to the documented legacy literals, which is exactly today's
behaviour.

`importCore` is now exported from `scripts/lib/backend-db.mjs` so
operator scripts reach core helpers through the **same staged-dist seam
`openBackend` already uses**, rather than each growing its own dist path
— `@fusion/core` is not resolvable from repo-root `scripts/`, which is
what made the obvious import fail.

The normalization move now targets the card's **own** column: naming
`"done"` was only ever a way of spelling *"where it already is"*, since
the move exists to trigger the store's done-normalization.

## One of my test expectations was wrong before the code was

My first version asserted that a card in a renamed complete lane with
`status:"failed"` yields only the transient-state finding. It yields
**both** — and that is correct, because a failed card outside the review
lane genuinely is flagged. I isolated the case (dropping
`status:"failed"`, keeping the worktree) so it pins one behaviour
instead of blurring two, rather than "fixing" the expectation to match
whatever came out.

## Revert proof

Restoring the four literals:

```
✖ reports stale transient state in a RENAMED complete lane
✖ does NOT flag a failed card that is sitting in the board's own review lane
✖ runReconciliation normalizes a renamed complete lane by moving the card to its OWN column
ℹ pass 5   ℹ fail 3
```

The remaining two new cases pass both ways by design — "still flags a
failed card outside the resolved review lane" and "unresolved lanes keep
exactly the legacy behaviour" guard against over-correction, so I am not
counting them as coverage of the defect.

## Verification (measured)

- `node --test` — **8 passed / 0 failed** (3 pre-existing + 5 new)
- sibling script suites (`recover-stale-blocked-by`,
`reconcile-leaked-soft-deletes`) — **7 passed**, unaffected by the
shared-lib export
- `node --check`, `eslint` — clean
- `lifecycle-column-census --strict`, `check-sql-column-literals`,
`check-lane-wiring`, `check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

No changeset: root `scripts/` is repo tooling, not part of the published
package.

## Still not addressed in this territory

`reconcile-leaked-soft-deletes.mjs` carries a raw `UPDATE
project."tasks" SET "column" = 'archived'` — on a renamed board that
writes a column the workflow does not declare, creating the
undeclared-column state this migration keeps repairing elsewhere. It
holds a raw backend rather than a store, so it needs the same
`importCore` seam this PR exports; left for a follow-up rather than
bundled here.

65f4e8533e fix(dashboard): blocker fan-out classified every board against the LEGACY lanes (finished cards shown as blockers; escalation never fired) (#2990)
The dashboard's `computeBlockerFanoutMap` wrapper called core with **no
lane answers at all**:

```ts
return computeBlockerFanoutMapCore(tasks, MAX_AUTO_MERGE_RETRIES, {
  staleHighFanoutAgeThresholdMs: options.staleHighFanoutAgeThresholdMs,
});   // no terminalColumns, no reviewColumns, no holdColumn, no classify
```

So every fan-out surface classified against `todo` / `in-review` /
`done` regardless of what the operator named their columns. Core defines
**active by exclusion — not terminal** — so on a renamed board a
**finished** card never became terminal and stayed an active blocker
forever. The Executor bar's highest-overlap blocker and the task modal's
blocking-dependents list both kept naming work that had already landed.

**Escalation was worse.** `shouldEscalate` requires the blocker to sit
in an escalation lane (wip ∪ review), which unresolved means
`in-progress`/`in-review` only — so a stale blocker holding up many
cards **never escalated**. The fan-out numbers themselves stayed
correct, which is what makes it easy to miss: the metric says there is a
problem and the mechanism that acts on it is switched off.

## Shape

**Per task, not a board-wide union** — the reason `blocker-fanout.ts`
documents on `classify`: an id means something only relative to its own
workflow, and this board renders several at once. `Board` builds the
index exactly as `App.tsx` already does for the footer
(`footerColumnFlagsByTaskId`): task → its own workflow → that workflow's
entry for the column the card rests in.

**Escalation = wip ∪ review**, mirroring `scheduler.ts`'s own
construction. The two must agree — the scheduler decides a blocker
escalates and the dashboard is where an operator sees it.

**An empty trait map means "not resolved yet", not "nothing is
terminal."** The pre-load window and the remote-node case keep the
documented legacy default rather than fabricated lifecycle state.

## Reverted

| case | reverted |
|---|---|
| a finished card in a renamed completion lane is not an active blocker
| **fails** |
| a stale high-fan-out blocker in a renamed wip lane escalates |
**fails** |
| unresolved traits stay byte-identical | passes either way — that is
why it is there |

## Two notes

- The hook call had to move below `useBoardWorkflows` in `Board` (it was
at line 206, the workflows at ~390). `blockerFanoutMap` is consumed only
in JSX, so the hook order change is unconditional and stable.
- The unresolved-card fallbacks are hoisted into three named helpers
with `DELIBERATE-LITERAL` markers on the **declarations** — the census
reads markers from leading comments, so an inline one attaches to the
wrong node and is silently ignored. Census baseline re-recorded in the
same commit (debt did not increase; markers moved 5 sites out of the
guard count).

## Not done

`ExecutorStatusBar` and `TaskDetailModal` call the wrapper directly and
still pass no traits. `ExecutorStatusBar` already receives
`columnFlagsByTaskId` so it is a one-liner; `TaskDetailModal` has no
trait index in scope and needs one threaded. Left out to keep this
reviewable — the ratchet keeps both visible.

## Verification

dashboard app suite **1919 passed (140 files)** · `pnpm test:gate` 161 +
13 + 487 + 71 · lint · census `--strict` · lane-wiring · fnxc-dates ·

cfe47b3754 chore(plugins): delete the superseded fusion-plugin-even-cards (#2790) (#2988)
Closes #2790 by finishing a decision that was already made and written
down.

## The issue's premise was wrong, including as I filed it

I raised this as "a package accidentally missing from
`pnpm-workspace.yaml`." It wasn't. `CHANGELOG-archive.md:9596`:

> Consolidate Even Realities plugin support into
`fusion-plugin-even-realities-glasses` and **remove
`fusion-plugin-even-cards` from the active workspace package list to
avoid duplicate user-facing integrations.**

The removal was deliberate, for a stated reason. The directory is what
got left behind. That also rules out the option I had been weighting
first — adding it back would undo a shipped consolidation and re-create
the duplicate integration it was removed to prevent.

## Unreachable by every path

| check | result |
|---|---|
| `pnpm-workspace.yaml` globs | no — never installed or built |
| CLI bundle list (`packages/cli/tsup.config.ts`) | no — 0 mentions,
while seven other plugins are named |
| runtime `plugins/*` directory-scan discovery | none exists — plugins
are enumerated explicitly |
| `package.json` | `private: true` — never published |
| imports outside its own directory | none |
| kept as a docs/authoring example | no — zero references in `docs/` or
any root `*.md` |
| successor in the workspace | yes —
`fusion-plugin-even-realities-glasses` |

## It was also polluting two ratchets

Dead code in a scanned tree is worse than dead code: both censuses are
**source-text scanners**, so they counted debt in files no build or
typecheck covers. Nobody could retire those entries through a
normally-verified refactor, and they inflated how much of the remaining
debt looked actionable.

Both baselines regenerated, and I checked each diff rather than trusting
the totals:

| baseline | change |
|---|---|
| `lane-wiring` | 26 → 23 sites, 21 → 20 files — **one entry removed**,
`board-routes.ts: 3` |
| `lifecycle-column-census` | exactly its two `board-cards.ts` entries |

Neither regeneration tightened anything unrelated — worth confirming
explicitly, because `lifecycle-column-census.mjs --strict` **writes**
its baseline as a side effect and could have folded an unrelated drop
into this commit.

**Verified:** lane-wiring, SQL-literal and FNXC gates all exit 0 after
the deletion; lint clean. 15 files removed.

## Why I went ahead

I said twice I would not delete this unilaterally. What changed is that
the trade-off dissolved — once the consolidation decision turned out to
be documented and the "is it a teaching example?" question answered by a
docs grep, there was nothing left to decide, only to execute. The
deletion is git-reversible and the standing guidance is that reversible
calls are mine to make.

Fourth time today a thing I filed as "needs someone else's judgement"
turned out to have its answer already in the repository. Cheap habit
worth keeping: before deferring, grep for whether the judgement has
already been made.

684c324084 fix(gate): the lane-wiring census counted { reviewColumns: undefined } as wired (#2984)
## What

Follow-up to the finding @gsxdsm left on #2981, taking the direction
offered there.

Both arms of this census asked whether the lane argument was
**present**, not whether it carried anything:

```ts
isThing(task, { reviewColumns: undefined });   // property present -> counted as wired
isThing(task, undefined);                      // arity satisfied  -> counted as wired
```

The callee receives exactly what it received before: nothing. The seam
is still inert, the board still reads the legacy vocabulary — the census
just stops saying so, which is the one failure mode a ratchet must not
have.

Same defect as the positional one #2981 fixes in
`check-inert-flag-seams`, one level in. The two gates are complementary
by design — this one owns the options-object and default-valued shapes
the other is structurally blind to — so the hole had to be closed in
**both**. Neither covered it, confirmed by probing each with a control
shape.

## The direction I took, since the review raised it as a contract
question

> *tightening just relocates the dishonesty into whichever spelling
survives... especially as I have already spent three attempts learning
that heuristic tightening here trades false positives for worse false
negatives.*

Agreed, which is why this is the narrowest possible reading rather than
a heuristic:

**Only a literal `undefined` / `void 0` counts as empty.** Shorthand `{
reviewColumns }` forwards a variable whose value is not knowable from
syntax, and treating it as unwired would flag every correct forwarding
wrapper in the tree — exactly the false-positive wave that trains
readers to skip a gate. Same for a call expression, a conditional, or
anything else with a value at runtime.

That keeps the rule provable from syntax alone. It doesn't relocate the
dishonesty so much as remove the one spelling that is *demonstrably*
empty; anything ambiguous still counts as wired, so the gate stays
conservative in the direction that matters.

## No tests existed for this census

`check-lane-wiring` and `lane-wiring-census.mjs` had no unit coverage on
`main`, so both rules ship with tests rather than resting on the probe
that found them.

## Measured

| check | result |
|---|---|
| clean `main` | exit 0, unchanged — all five gates green |
| now caught | property spelled `undefined` · property spelled `void 0`
|
| correctly **not** flagged | a real value · shorthand forwarding · a
call-expression value · a middle `undefined` with a real argument after
it |
| new suite | **8 tests**; reverting both rules fails **exactly** the 3
positives, negatives hold |

## Not done here, deliberately

The second finding on #2981 — `computeBlockerFanoutMap`'s dashboard
wrapper dropping all four lane options, so the fanout display reads
legacy literals on a renamed board — is **not** in this PR. Confirming
the diagnosis: `useBlockerFanout.ts`'s `UseBlockerFanoutOptions`
declares only `staleHighFanoutAgeThresholdMs` and forwards only that,
and all three dashboard call sites (`Board`, `TaskDetailModal`,
`ExecutorStatusBar`) have the same gap.

One correction to how it's framed, though: core already has the right
seam for it. `classify` and `escalationClassify` are documented there as
*"the only correct option on a multi-workflow board"*, precisely because
the set-shaped options assume a column id means the same thing
everywhere. So the fix should thread **per-task classifiers**, not
resolved column-flag sets — otherwise it reproduces the union read that
this program's own learnings doc lists as the fourth failure shape.

What's genuinely undecided is where a per-task role answer comes from in
a sync render path: `Board` holds `columnDef.flags` for the *selected*
workflow only, and the dashboard has no per-task resolver hook. That's
the design call, and it's dashboard-batch work rather than a mechanical
edit — so I've left it for whoever owns that batch rather than guessing
at it inside a gate PR.

16921fc518 fix(engine,core): role resolution was half-done in two shared lifecycle predicates (surfacing family + file-scope leases) (#2975)
The three surfacing sweeps stopped reporting anything for a card resting
in a board's **second** review or hold column.

A lifecycle role is a **trait**, and any number of columns may carry it.
The shared runner resolved it with `resolveLifecycleColumns()[role]` —
**first match** — then gated on it:

```ts
const roleColumn = lifecycle?.[spec.role];        // FIRST column carrying the trait
if (task.column !== resolved.roleColumn) continue; // everything else dropped
```

A workflow that splits human sign-off from the merge lane has two review
columns; one that parks dependency-blocked cards separately has two hold
columns. Cards in the second got **no stale-paused-todo, no
stale-paused-review, no in-review-stalled** diagnostic — silently, with
no error, on all three sweeps at once.

## The second bug hiding inside the fix for the first

Resolving membership but still reading `roleColumns[0]`'s declared
`recovery` applies the **merge lane's** threshold to a card sitting in
the **sign-off** lane. Each card's policy now comes from its own column,
and one of the new cases fails if it doesn't: the first role column
declares a policy that suppresses the signal, the card's own column
declares one that fires.

## Reverted

| | |
|---|---|
| **6 of 12** new cases fail | `fires for a card in the SECOND column
carrying its role` and `reads the recovery policy of the card's OWN role
column` — × 3 sweeps |
| the other 6 pass either way | non-regression halves: still fires for
the FIRST role column, still does **not** fire for a card outside every
role column. Membership must widen the gate, not move it. |

The pre-existing 45 cases were all green throughout — the
single-role-column fixture could not express the case, which is why the
table-driven file that exists to stop these three sweeps drifting apart
never caught it.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 13 + 487 + 71 · surfacing family 57 · core
stale-paused 20 · lint · census `--strict` · sql-literals · fnxc-dates ·
lane-wiring · changesets — all green.

## Note

`holdColumns` was missing from the lane-wiring vocabulary, so the gate
could not see that argument dropped. Added in the same commit.

While reviewing, I found and measured **two problems in #2974** (comment
posted there): six of its newly-visible sites are `satisfies`-wrapped
false positives, and baselining them means deleting a real
`reviewColumns` argument keeps the count unchanged and the gate green;
and its baseline predates #2970, re-opening the slot that PR closed.

## Second commit: the same predicate, half-converted
(`shouldHoldActiveFileScopeLease`)

Folded in here rather than stacked — same file, same class, and a
stacked PR on an unmerged base is not mergeable. Reversible; say the
word and I'll split it.

`shouldHoldActiveFileScopeLease` is the **scheduler's** lease predicate,
shared with the self-healing repair paths deliberately so the two cannot
disagree about who holds a file-scope lease. Its two role answers are
optional parameters defaulting to the legacy ids. The scheduler's own
call sites were converted to pass resolved answers; self-healing's two
were not:

```ts
const isWipColumn    = options?.isWipColumn    ?? task.column === "in-progress";
const isReviewColumn = options?.isReviewColumn ?? task.column === "in-review";
```

On a renamed board neither branch matches, so the predicate returns
`false` for every card. The scheduler kept the lease; self-healing saw
none, cleared `overlapBlockedBy`, and **released a dependent to edit
files another agent still holds** — the outcome `groupOverlappingFiles`
exists to prevent.

Membership comes from the wip/review sets each sweep already resolved a
few lines above, so this adds no reads.

**Reverted:** both new cases fail with `overlapBlockedBy` = `null` — the
release itself, not a proxy. The pre-existing legacy-column case in the
same file passes either way, because `in-progress` satisfies the literal
default; that is exactly why it never caught this.

Lane-wiring baseline re-recorded `9 -> 7` in the same commit (the
ratchet refused a stale allowance, as intended).

**Verification:** gate 161 + 13 + 487 + 71 · surfacing 57 · overlap-seam
+ scheduler-lease + query-blindness 79 · core stale-paused 20 · lint ·
census `--strict` · sql-literals · fnxc-dates · changesets — green.

968af0822c gate: the lane-wiring ratchet did not scan plugins, dashboard/app, or any .tsx (#2978)
## The new gate re-opened a blind spot the old one had already learned
about

`check-lane-wiring.mjs` (#2966) scanned four roots and only `.ts`:

```js
const ROOTS = ["packages/core/src", "packages/engine/src", "packages/dashboard/src", "packages/cli/src"];
```

`unwired-lane-parameter-guard.test.ts` scans **six**, including
`packages/dashboard/app` and `plugins`, and its FNXC note records
exactly why:

> `plugins` is scanned, and its absence was half of a real escape. […]
an unwired `completeColumnsByTaskId` sat on `main` unreported: the guard
found 0 across 1753 files, and 0 again across 2114 once plugins were
added, because the shape was invisible too. **Fixing either alone would
still have missed it.**

That is the same trap here, and it needed **two** changes. Those trees
are overwhelmingly `.tsx`, which the file filter excluded — so adding
the roots without the extension would have scanned a handful of files
and reported a reassuring near-zero.

## What the widened scan found: 10 sites, in 8 files, audited not
blind-baselined

| site | verdict |
| --- | --- |
| `dependency-graph/GraphTaskNode.tsx` (`isTaskStuck`) | **real** —
`isTaskStuck` takes an optional 4th `columnFlags`; omitted,
`isWipColumnRole` falls back to the literal, so **no card on a renamed
board is ever shown stuck** in the graph |
| `dashboard/app/Lane.tsx`, `ListView.tsx` (`sortTasksForDisplayColumn`)
| **real**, dashboard batch |
| `dashboard/app/ModelSelectorTab.tsx` ×2
(`resolveEffectiveExecutor`/`Validator`) | **real**, dashboard batch |
| `dashboard/app/TaskDetailModal.tsx`
(`isNearDuplicateCanonicalInactive`) | **real**, dashboard batch |
| `even-cards/routes/board-routes.ts` ×3 (`boardToDeck`) | **cannot be
fixed in place** — deprecated plugin depending on `@fusion/plugin-sdk`
alone, with no resolution source |
| `even-realities-glasses/routes/board-routes.ts:141` (`boardToDeck`) |
**harmless by construction** — the `{ maxCards: 1 }` summary call slices
`active` to empty, so `terminalColumns` cannot change its output;
documented in `cards.ts` |

They are baselined rather than fixed because they span three other
batches. I did **not** fix the graph one despite it being my area:
wiring it needs the plugin prop contract to carry column flags, and the
plugin's own `dashboard-interop.d.ts` declares `isTaskStuck` with only
three parameters — so it crosses the dashboard↔plugin API boundary
rather than being a local change.

## Merge-order hazard, stated precisely

A **decrease** also exits 1 (`process.exit(1)` on the `decreased`
branch), and #2976 wires `packages/cli/src/commands/task-lifecycle.ts`,
which is present in this baseline. **If #2976 lands after this PR,
main's gate goes red** until the baseline is re-recorded.

It fails loudly rather than silently, so it is a chore not a risk.
Merging #2976 first and letting me re-record here is the cleanest order
— say the word and I will push the re-record.

## Verification (measured)

- `check-lane-wiring` — green, **19 known / none added** (was 9 across 4
roots)
- `unwired-lane-parameter-guard.test.ts` — **9 passed**, the older guard
is unaffected
- `lifecycle-column-census --strict`, `check-sql-column-literals`,
`check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

Gate/tooling only; no product file is touched.

41af5e5dbd fix(gate): the lane-wiring census could not see its own motivating case (#2956) (#2974)
#2966 shipped a gate that **cannot detect the defect named first in its
own header.**

`findLaneAcceptingFunctions` matched a lane parameter only when
`param.type` was a `TypeLiteralNode` — an inline `{ reviewColumns?: …
}`. But the real code declares these as interfaces:

```ts
export function getInReviewStallReason(
  task: Pick<Task, …>,
  context: InReviewStallContext = {},   // TypeReference — invisible
): InReviewStallSignal | undefined
```

so the function never entered `accepting` and none of its call sites
were examined.

| lane-accepting functions detected | 20 | **30** |
| `getInReviewStallReason` detected | no | **yes** |
| re-introduce #2956 (drop `reviewColumns` from one call site) | `none
added` — **passes** | **fails**: `reads.ts: 7 unwired now, baseline
allows 6` |

The gate now catches the thing it was built for.

### The baseline moves 10 → 24, and that number needs context

`10 unwired call site(s) across 8 files` → `24 across 15`. **No entry
was removed** — every previously-recorded file kept its count and 14
sites became visible for the first time:

```
core/task-store/reads.ts                        0 -> 6
engine/self-healing.ts                          2 -> 4
core/task-store/branch-and-pr-entities.ts       0 -> 1
core/task-store/task-update.ts                  0 -> 1
engine/scheduler.ts                             0 -> 1
dashboard/routes/register-task-workflow-routes  0 -> 1
cli/commands/dashboard-tui/bucket-mapping.ts    0 -> 1
cli/extension.ts                                0 -> 1
```

**These are newly VISIBLE, not newly broken** — they have been unwired
all along. I have **not** audited them, and recording them in the
baseline is not a claim that they are fine; it is the ratchet doing what
its header describes, since the census's own note says roughly half of
the original hits were legitimately unwired (identity proven by a
stronger means, sentinel columns, dead exports). Someone should walk the
14. Two stand out as worth a look first: **`reads.ts` at 6** is the file
#2956 was about, and **`scheduler.ts`** is a dispatch path.

Flagging rather than fixing, because wiring a call site that should not
be wired is its own defect and each needs the judgement call the census
header describes.

### Regression test

`packages/engine/src/__tests__/lane-wiring-census-named-types.test.ts`
pins the detector's shape — named interface, type alias, inline literal,
positional — against fixtures rather than live counts, so it does not
churn when someone legitimately wires a call site. Plus one anti-vacuity
case asserting the named-type arm is still load-bearing on real source
(`getInReviewStallReason` resolves in the live tree), so the fixtures
cannot pass while the tool has quietly stopped applying here.

**Mutation:** removing the `TypeReference` arm fails **4 of 5**.

### Also worth knowing

`findLaneAcceptingFunctions` still only visits
`ts.isFunctionDeclaration` at top level, so `export const fn = (ctx) =>
…` remains invisible. I checked — no exported arrow function currently
takes a lane argument, so nothing is missed today, and I left it rather
than widen the surface in the same change.

Resolved by **name across the corpus** instead of a type-checker
`Program`: these are plain source scans and a checker would cost a full
type-resolution pass for one lookup. Two same-named types merge, which
only ever widens what counts as wired — safe for a ratchet.

**Verified:** 5/5 new tests, `check-lane-wiring` clean at the new
baseline, lint clean, FNXC gate exit 0. Core suite on main is green
(4923 passed / 0 failed) — unrelated, but I had it running.

be79fe0db6 fix(cli): PR merges silently never ran on a renamed board — the blocker was asked about in-review (#2976)
## PR merges silently never ran on a renamed board

`processPullRequestMergeTask` called its injected blocker with the task
alone:

```ts
if (getTaskMergeBlocker(task)) return "skipped";
```

So `options.reviewColumns` was undefined and the blocker's identity
check fell back to `task.column === "in-review"`. On a board whose merge
lane is named anything else it returns:

```
task is in 'checking', must be in 'in-review'
```

…which is truthy, so this function returns `"skipped"`. **Silently and
permanently** — nothing logs, nothing fails, the PR simply never merges.
`daemon.ts`, `serve.ts` and `dashboard.ts` all drain PR merges through
here, making this a third instance of the #2963/#2964 class ("merge
entry points unwired — merging was impossible on a renamed board").

Found via the baseline #2966 shipped:
`packages/cli/src/commands/task-lifecycle.ts` was a known-unwired call
site in it.

## Narrow resolution, deliberately

`resolveReviewColumns` is the **broad** set, and its own FNXC note warns
that a caller which admits on it *and then moves the card* will act on
cards the engine does not consider in review. This function merges and
moves to the complete lane — a state-changing admission — so it uses
`resolveMergeOrchestrationColumn`, the single lane the engine acts on.
That matches how `moves.ts` wires the same call.

Degradation is unchanged in both directions: `resolveWorkflowIrForTask`
substitutes the default IR rather than throwing, so a default board
resolves `in-review` and behaves identically; a v1-upgraded IR resolves
every role empty and keeps the documented legacy literal (covered by a
test).

## One shape choice worth flagging

The option is always **passed** and conditionally **valued**:

```ts
getTaskMergeBlocker(task, { reviewColumns: mergeLane ? new Set([mergeLane]) : undefined })
```

rather than making the whole argument conditional. These are identical
at runtime — the blocker treats an undefined `reviewColumns` exactly as
it treats absent options — but **only this shape is visible to
`lane-wiring-census.mjs`**, which matches an object-literal argument and
cannot see a ternary. I wrote the ternary first, and the gate still
reported the site as unwired; wiring a gate cannot check is how this
defect survived in the first place.

The gate then confirmed the fix and asked for the baseline in the same
commit:

```
[check-lane-wiring] unwired call sites decreased:
  packages/cli/src/commands/task-lifecycle.ts: 1 -> 0
```

Baseline re-recorded 9 → 8 in this commit, so the allowance cannot be
regrown into.

## Revert proof

**There was no test for this function at all** — that is why it went
unnoticed. Restoring only `task-lifecycle.ts`:

```
AssertionError: expected "vi.fn()" to be called with arguments: [ ObjectContaining{…}, …(1) ]
AssertionError: expected 'skipped' not to be 'skipped'
AssertionError: expected "vi.fn()" to be called with arguments: [ ObjectContaining{…}, undefined ]
      Tests  3 failed | 1 passed (4)
```

The one case that passes both ways is "still skips a card that is not in
any merge lane" — it guards against over-admission rather than proving
the fix, and I am not claiming it as coverage of the defect.

## Verification (measured)

- new suite **4/4**; with `pr-automerge-cleanup` **9 passed / 2 files**
- `tsc --noEmit`, `eslint` — clean
- `check-lane-wiring` (8, none added), `lifecycle-column-census
--strict`, `check-sql-column-literals`, `check-fnxc-future-dates` —
green

**Changeset added** (`patch`). `packages/cli` is the published
`@runfusion/fusion` and this changes user-facing merge behaviour, so
AGENTS.md requires one. My first pass hedged and left it to a maintainer
— that was wrong, the rule is not discretionary, and it is now in the
branch.

2fd798cb36 core: every review card reported a false stall on a renamed board (#2970)
**The failure mode worth distinguishing: the rest of this family went
quiet on a renamed board. This one shouted.**

`getInReviewStallReason` satisfied its **own** lane check from
`context.reviewColumns` — then called `getTaskMergeBlocker` **without**
them. That helper re-ran its column-identity check against the literal
`in-review` and returned, for a perfectly healthy card:

```
task is in 'signoff', must be in 'in-review'
```

…which was surfaced as `{ code: "merge-blocker" }`. **Every in-review
card on a renamed board was flagged as stalled**, each citing a lane the
board does not have. That is how a signal stops being read at all.

## A second symptom, found by the revert rather than by reading

On a **genuinely failed** card, the identity message wins over the real
one. The operator saw the bogus column complaint instead of `task is
marked 'failed': merge verification failed`.

So it did not only invent stalls — it **masked the true reason for real
ones**. I would not have noticed that from the diff; it showed up
because the revert run asserted on the reason text.

## Same shape, last one in the family

The outer question was resolved and the inner one was not — the
half-conversion the helper's own comment records for `moves.ts`, and
#2963/#2964 fixed for the merge entry points. This is the last site the
audit turned up where the lane answer was already in scope and simply
not forwarded.

## Revert results

| | reverted → |
| --- | --- |
| the unforwarded call (what ships today) | **2 of 3 fail** — healthy
card reports a merge-blocker stall; failed card reports the wrong reason
|

**Fixture note worth keeping:** `paused` is deliberately *not* the
genuine-stall case. An earlier guard returns `undefined` for a paused
card before the merge blocker is ever consulted, so that case would pass
whether or not the lanes are forwarded — the vacuous shape this series
has produced eight times.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 487 + 13 + 71; `@fusion/core` full suite **4878
passed** (457 files); `tsc` core clean; lint, lifecycle census
`--strict`, FNXC gate, changesets all clean.

19deb42170 gate: ratchet call sites that never receive the lane answer (#2966)
**This is the gap that let three defects reach `main` in one day.**

`unwired-lane-parameter.mjs` catches a parameter that reaches **no**
caller. It is deliberately satisfied by a mention *anywhere*, so
**partial** wiring is invisible to it:

| | |
| --- | --- |
| #2956 | `getInReviewStallReason` wired at **0 of 4** call sites while
both siblings were wired |
| #2963 | both merge entry points unwired — merging was **impossible**
on a renamed board |
| #2964 | merge-confirmed finalization unwired — **already-landed work
parked `failed`** |

Every one was a fix that added an optional parameter without the
call-site sweep that has to follow it. The existing guard was green
throughout, correctly by its own contract.

## A census, not a guard — and that distinction is the whole design

Auditing the sites this finds showed **four of seven were legitimately
unwired**: `skipColumnIdentityCheck` callers have already proven lane
identity by a stronger means, a sentinel-column caller wants the
identity check satisfied by construction, and a dead export has no
caller to wire at all.

A check that failed on those is ~57% false positives. The sibling
guard's own header says why that is worse than a miss — *"it teaches
people to disable the check"* — and I agree, so this does not do it.

Instead it ratchets like the lifecycle census: **36 known unwired sites
across 20 files**, allowed to shrink and not to grow. A new unwired
caller raises the count and fails; wiring one lowers it and re-records.
The recurrence — adding a caller that forgets the lane answer — is
precisely what gets caught, and the legitimate sites cost one baseline
line each instead of a permanently red gate.

## Detection is AST-based, deliberately

It finds exported functions accepting a lane-named argument — directly
*or* as an options-bag member — then finds call sites passing none of
them.

Not regex: the ad-hoc scan I used during the audit produced false
negatives on multi-line calls, which is exactly how a caller gets missed
in the first place. Using a heuristic to police a defect caused by a
heuristic seemed like a poor trade.

## Verified to fail on the recurrence

A ratchet that cannot fail is worse than none, so this was measured
rather than assumed. Injecting one new unwired caller into
`self-healing.ts`:

```
[check-lane-wiring] call sites not passing a resolved lane argument INCREASED:

  packages/engine/src/self-healing.ts: 9 unwired now, baseline allows 8
```

exit 1, naming the file and the delta.

## Placement

Runs as a named `check:lane-wiring` step in `pr-checks.yml` beside the
lifecycle, SQL, inert-seam and FNXC ratchets — same convention, same
failure ergonomics, ~1s.

Note the baseline records today's state, which still includes the
#2963/#2964 sites because those fixes have not merged yet. When they
land the count drops and the baseline is re-recorded downward — the
ratchet working as intended rather than a conflict.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 487 + 13 + 71; `tsc` engine clean; lint,
lifecycle census `--strict`, FNXC gate, and the new check all clean.

126cee7e6d engine: finalization parked ALREADY-MERGED work as failed on a renamed board (#2964)
**The worst symptom in this family: the branch landed, and the board
says the task failed.**

`project-engine`'s merge-confirmed finalization spread the task's
**real** column into `getTaskHardMergeBlocker` with no `reviewColumns`,
so the identity check ran against the literal `in-review`. On a renamed
board it returned `task is in 'signoff', must be in 'in-review'`, and
the caller parked the card:

```
status: "failed"
error:  "Merge confirmed but finalization blocked: task is in 'signoff', must be in 'in-review'"
```

For work that had already merged.

## Its sibling had already solved this

`auto-merge-finalization.ts` passes the **review-eligible sentinel**
instead of the card's own column, with the reasoning recorded at that
site: `getTaskHardMergeBlocker` asks *"is this card blocked by anything
other than where it sits?"*, and its callers are recovery paths for
landed work that a graph crash can leave resting in any column.
`project-engine` simply never got the same treatment.

## One name instead of two spellings

Rather than write the sentinel a second time, it is exported once as
`REVIEW_ELIGIBLE_SENTINEL_COLUMN` next to the helper whose contract
gives it meaning, and both recovery paths use it. **Two sites
independently spelling a magic value is how one of them came to be
missing it** — that is the actual root cause here, not the literal
itself.

This also answers the census, which flagged the new literal — correctly.
Its guidance (which I wrote, in #2909) is to hoist a deliberate literal
into a *declaration*, where a `DELIBERATE-LITERAL` marker actually
attaches, instead of leaving it mid-expression where the marker is
silently ignored. The shared constant is exactly that, and it lowers
`auto-merge-finalization`'s literal count too.

## Revert result

| | reverted → |
| --- | --- |
| sentinel replaced by the card's own renamed column | reproduces the
shipped string |

The middle test asserts that string deliberately — it is what landed in
`task.error`, so a regression reports what the operator would actually
have seen. A third case checks the sentinel does **not** suppress
genuine blockers: incomplete steps still block finalization in any lane.

These drive the helper directly; reaching `project-engine`'s
finalization end to end needs a live engine, a merge run and a real
repo, while the defect is entirely in *what the blocker is asked*.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 487 + 13 + 71; `project-engine` +
`auto-merge-finalization` + the new suite, 207; `tsc` clean on core and
engine; lint, census `--strict`, FNXC gate, changesets all clean.

189f237a07 fix(security): make the approval and permission gates actually enforce (#2457)
## Why

An AI agent autonomously deleted a live task (FN-8609) via
`fn_task_delete`. Investigating that led to two audits, which found the
gate machinery is well-built and its *enforcement* well-tested — but the
*decision boundary* was unguarded and the tools that matter never
reached the gate at all.

The headline defect: all ~76 tools in `packages/cli/src/extension.ts`
are delivered through `hostExtensionPaths` → `DefaultResourceLoader`,
which never passes through `wrapToolsWithActionGate`. `fn_task_delete`
*was* classified as gated in `gating-classifications.ts` — that
classification was dead code. Roughly 15 destructive tools were ungated
even for an operator who had locked their policy all the way down.

Second: `POST /api/approvals/:id/decision` took the approver identity
from the request body, validated for shape only, with no check that the
decider was human or differed from the requester. Combined with a bash
tool whose command string was never inspected (only `params.cwd`), an
agent could read the daemon token from `~/.fusion/settings.json`, find
its own pending request, and approve it.

## Scope

This does **not** tighten defaults. The `unrestricted` preset is
byte-for-byte unchanged — `git diff` on `agent-permission-policy.ts` is
empty — and regression tests assert that an out-of-the-box install
behaves exactly as before. The bug was never "the default is too
permissive"; it was "strict policy doesn't enforce." This makes turning
security up actually work.

The one deliberate exception: the containment that stops an agent
escalating its *own* privileges (reading the daemon token / credentials,
calling the approvals API to self-approve) applies at every preset
including `unrestricted`. That is a privilege-escalation boundary rather
than a permission preference — if it only engaged under strict policy it
would not have prevented the incident that prompted this.

## What changed

8 bisectable commits:

- **Approval lifecycle** — self-approval blocked via server-derived
deciders; same-verdict replay 409s; decide re-reads and re-validates
inside the transaction; expiry TTLs; `markCompleted` ownership check;
session identity registry in core.
- **Engine gates enforce for real** — unclassified tools resolve to a
policy-governed category instead of hardcoded `allow`; missing-policy
fail-open closed; bash containment floor + exact-command approval
binding.
- **Dashboard decision routes** — stop trusting client-supplied actors
(decision, bypass-review, worktrunk → 403 on forged actors).
- **`fn serve` authenticated by default** — auto-mints a token following
the existing `fn dashboard` precedent; `--no-auth` opts out.
- **Sibling entry points closed** — user-sourced hard-cancel moves, ACP
execute-once approvals, plugin task-store gating.
- **pi-extension principal resolution** — the extension resolves the
acting principal and can withhold or policy-gate the previously ungated
destructive tools.
- **Root-cause bonus fix** — `findLatestByDedupeKey` was broken in
PostgreSQL backend mode (already-parsed jsonb fed through a string-only
parser), so approved-grant redemption **never matched in production**,
minting duplicate requests. This explains the live DB state of 17
approved / 0 completed. *(Also cherry-picked to `main` as `a9b30013bb`,
since it is an active production defect on its own.)*
- **Review follow-ups** (`627f1b1fa8`) — operator-configured
provisioning privilege and a configurable grant TTL; see below.

## Review follow-ups

**Provisioning privilege is operator-configured, not role-derived.**
`isCallerPrivileged` had gone from `caller.reportsTo == null` (every
top-level agent privileged — permanent escalation by creating a
manager-less agent) to `caller.role === "ceo"`, which swapped an
implicit rule for a magic string: any agent config can claim that role,
while an operator who genuinely wants a privileged agent had no
supported way to say so. Privilege now derives solely from
`agentProvisioning.trustedAgentIds` / `trustedRoles` and fails closed
when settings are unresolvable.

It is also no longer forwarded to `resolveAgentProvisioningPolicy` as
`isPrivileged`, because that flag short-circuits ahead of
`alwaysApproveDelete` — a trusted caller was bypassing delete approval
entirely. The policy applies the same trusted rules itself, in the right
order. The function now governs only the org-chart escape hatch (acting
outside your own direct reports).

**Grant TTL defaults to 1 hour and is configurable.** Approval →
redemption is not instantaneous: an operator approving from their phone,
an engine restart, a queued lane, or a task waiting on a worktree all
routinely exceeded 15 minutes, after which the grant expired and the
agent silently re-requested. One hour remains far short of the
"redeemable forever" hazard the TTL exists to bound. Override via
`FUSION_APPROVAL_GRANT_TTL_MS` or `configureApprovalRequestTtls()`;
invalid overrides are ignored rather than widening the window to
infinity or collapsing it to zero.

## Behavior changes requiring operator review before rollout

1. `fn serve` requires a bearer token by default (`--no-auth` opts out);
unauthenticated clients get 401.
2. Agents can no longer run withheld destructive tools
(`fn_task_delete`, `fn_task_bypass_review`,
mission/milestone/slice/feature/workflow deletes, `experiment_finalize`,
`skills_install`). Operators keep them via CLI/dashboard. **This is the
incident fix.**
3. Agents get provisioning privilege only when the operator lists them
in `agentProvisioning.trustedAgentIds` / `trustedRoles`; the
provisioning gate is now live in production. Previously-implicit
privilege (top-level position, or a `ceo` role) no longer grants
anything on its own.
4. Decision replay 409s (was 200); pending approvals expire after 24h,
approved grants after 1h (configurable); bash approvals bind per exact
command.
5. Forged/body actors on decision, bypass-review, worktrunk routes →
403; `archive-all-done` requires `{confirm:true}` (external scripts
affected).
6. `fn_secret_get` approvals grant exactly one reveal (previously
granted nothing and looped forever); ACP approvals are execute-once
(previously infinite reuse).
7. Bash containment denies token/credential/approvals-API commands in
all agent sessions at every preset.

## Verification

Independently re-run against the branch, not just self-reported:

- 5 typechecks (core, engine, cli, dashboard `tsconfig.json` +
`tsconfig.app.json`) — clean
- `pnpm lint` — clean
- `pnpm test:gate` — 379 passed
- `pnpm build --force` — green (a plain `pnpm build` skips packages as
unchanged and does **not** compile the branch)
- `pnpm check:changesets` — clean
- ~650 file-scoped tests including new negative-path suites for the
decision boundary, which previously had **zero** test coverage

`packages/engine/src/__tests__/plugin-runner.test.ts` fails 56/80 —
**verified pre-existing**, reproducing identically at base commit
`93a403af67` on `main`. Not in the merge gate.

### A mutation check that failed to fail

Worth recording, because it nearly shipped an untested security fix. The
first mutation check on the provisioning change reintroduced the `ceo`
hardcode and **all 17 tests still passed** — the tests asserted through
the policy path, which can no longer observe `isCallerPrivileged` at
all, precisely because `isPrivileged` is no longer forwarded there.
Org-chart cases that do exercise the function were added; the hardcode
now fails exactly 1 of 19, and restoring is green. A green mutation run
is only meaningful if the test can actually see the code under test.

## Known limitations (stated, not papered over)

- The bash containment floor is string-matching: a cost-raiser, not a
sandbox. Quoting, encoding, `$HOME`, symlinks, or an interpreter
one-liner can evade it. The durable protection is the decision route
refusing agent-originated deciders — the filter is the belt, not the
braces.
- Approval expiry is lazy (evaluated at decide/complete/redeem), not
swept, so an expired pending row stays visible in lists until touched.
- The extension's require-approval path returns a pending message but
cannot suspend a pi session mid-turn; engine-side pause hooks cover
engine lanes only.

1f0d371228 fix(tests): three more portal query-root failures (pr-tab, worktree-terminal, milestone-slice) (#2959)
Three dashboard test files asserted against `render()`'s `container`,
but the components under test mount through `createPortal` — so
`container` is **empty** and every query returns nothing. Same root
cause as the earlier portal batch; these are the three that were still
held back.

| File | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| `TaskDetailModal.pr-tab` | failing | pass |
| `TaskDetailModal.worktree-terminal` | failing | pass |
| `MilestoneSliceInterviewModal` | failing | pass |

**Measured: 39/39 passing**, rebased on current main (`3461ae7a92`).
Lint clean, FNXC date gate exit 0.

### Why this stayed hidden

The queries were a **mix** of `container.querySelector(...)` and
`screen.*`. `screen` queries `document`, so they kept working — a
portal-mounted modal makes only the `container` half go blind. The
result is a file that looks half-alive rather than obviously broken, and
the failures present as five different-looking symptoms (`null`,
`undefined`, `+0`, `[]`, `-1`) that don't read as one bug.

Grouping candidate files by **`container.querySelector` call count**
rather than by symptom is what identified these correctly, and — the
part that mattered — correctly *excluded* the neighbouring files that
were failing for unrelated reasons.

### One thing to know if you repeat this

A blanket `container` → `document` replace is wrong: it also rewrites
`renderResult.container.querySelector` into
`renderResult.document.querySelector`, which is not a thing. That broke
two already-passing tests on my first attempt. This uses two separate
passes with a lookbehind so only the bare receiver is rewritten.

### Scope

Test-side only — **no product code changes**, so no changeset. This does
not fix the *cause* (tests are still free to query the wrong root); a
lint rule for that is worth considering separately, but it would need to
distinguish portal-mounting components from ordinary ones, and I did not
want to guess at that boundary inside a test-fix PR.

255741e9ab fix(gate): scan every file type that carries an FNXC stamp (#2954)
The walk's extension filter was `/\.(tsx?|m?js|cjs|md)$/` — the file
types stamps were **expected** in, rather than the ones they **occur**
in. Wherever the convention spread on its own, the gate could not see
it.

## How I found it

Chasing four stamps dated `2026-10-19` — three months out, so unlike the
rest of the population they would not age out on their own. All four
were in `packages/core/dist/`, which the gate correctly skips as
generated. The *source* they were compiled from is a `.sql` migration,
which the gate skips for a different and much worse reason: it was never
scanned at all.

## Why `.sql` is the expensive omission

A migration's stamp records **when a schema change landed**. That is the
case where a wrong date misleads most — it is the file you read to
reconstruct the order schema changes happened in. 69 migration files
carry stamps; 10 were future-dated and none were visible.

`.css` had drifted furthest by volume: **1023 stamps across 123 files**,
almost all from the dashboard CSS split. `.html`, `.ya?ml`, `.json`,
`.sh` are included too; they add coverage but contribute no baseline
entries.

## The 9 new baseline entries are newly VISIBLE, not new

5 `.css` + 4 `.sql`. Every one predates this change and would have been
caught had the gate ever looked. Recording them is a
**reclassification**, the same distinction the census draws for its
DELIBERATE-LITERAL marker — a baseline that grows here is the gate's
coverage improving, not the codebase regressing. Reading the rise as a
regression would be exactly backwards.

## Verified by mutation, not by reading

- A future-dated stamp appended to `ChatView.css` → gate **exit 1**.
- A future-dated stamp appended to `0036_chat_session_tags.sql` → gate
**exit 1**.
- Both reverted → **exit 0**.

Without this, both probes pass silently.

## Two notes on the diff

- **Zero removals.** My first attempt rewrote the baseline with sorted
keys, which turned unmoved lines into add/remove pairs and made it look
like entries were being dropped. Rebuilt in walk order so the diff is
additions only.
- `reads.ts` is deliberately left at `2` here even though it now
measures `0`. That drop belongs to #2953; duplicating it across two open
PRs is how this queue got tangled before. The gate auto-tightens it at
runtime and still exits 0.

## What this does not fix

The **478** future-dated stamps still in the tree. They are
agent-written (mine included) and most are one or two days out, so the
count falls on its own as the clock advances — it should not be read as
cleanup progress. This PR only makes the gate able to *see* the SQL and
CSS ones, so no new stamp can land there unnoticed.

8e5e1147d2 core,engine: the last literal lifecycle query — and the three stall signals that disagreed (#2951)
**This is the last one.** `surfaceInReviewStalls` was the final literal
`listTasks({ column })` in production — I verified it by direct scan,
not by census arithmetic: **1 remaining before this, 0 after.**

It tells an operator that a card is stalled in review. On a renamed
board the stall was real and the board simply never said so.

## It came last on purpose

Converting the read alone would have been **worse than leaving it**.
`getInReviewStallReason` gated on the literal `in-review` itself, so a
widened read hands every renamed-board card to a classifier that drops
it — the missed-pair class, wearing the shape of a clean one-line
conversion.

## What was actually there

Three sibling signals decorate the same row, and they **disagreed about
which lane it is in**:

| signal | before |
| --- | --- |
| `getInReviewStalledSignal` | singular `reviewColumn` — resolved, but
**first-per-role** |
| `getStalePausedReviewSignal` | singular `reviewColumn` — same |
| `getInReviewStallReason` | **no seam at all** — literal |

So one row could be judged in-review by one signal and not by another.
And the singular ones are the **arity trap**:
`resolveLifecycleColumns().review` is the *first* column carrying a
review role, so a board with a separate merge lane beside its
human-review lane had a second review column matching none of them.

All three now take `reviewColumns` (membership), resolved **once per
row** through `resolveReviewColumns` — the union of the three review
roles — so they cannot disagree by construction. The singular/literal
paths remain as the no-metadata fallback, so a caller passing nothing is
byte-identical to today. Ten call sites in `reads.ts` wired from that
one answer; the singular resolver is deleted.

## Revert results

Each applied alone and re-run:

| conversion | reverted → |
| --- | --- |
| the resolved read | fails — the card is never listed |
| `reviewColumns` at the call | fails — the classifier drops the renamed
card the widened read just found |

That second row is the whole point: it proves the pair had to move
together, which is the thing I got wrong twice earlier in this series.

## Second commit: a red on `main`, not from this branch

`check-fnxc-future-dates` landed and **`main` fails it** — verified by
running the script on a clean `origin/main` checkout rather than
inferring. Nine files carry stamps dated after today, so every worker's
gate fails on a check none of their changes caused. Several are mine: I
had been stamping tomorrow's date across this whole series, which is
precisely the out-of-order record the check exists to prevent.

Scope held deliberately: a repo-wide sweep touched **266 files** across
docs, scripts and every package. I ran it, backed it out, and limited
this to the nine files the check actually flags — a mechanical rewrite
that size during a queue freeze would conflict with every in-flight
branch, which is worse than the red it fixes.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 487 + 13 + 71 (green **only** with the stamp
commit); `@fusion/core` full suite **4810 passed**; engine self-healing
+ blindness + both ratchets **758 passed**; `tsc` clean on core and
engine; `pnpm lint`, `check:changesets`, `lifecycle-column-census
--strict`, `check-sql-column-literals` and `check-fnxc-future-dates` all
clean.

f49e487d91 feat(core): untraited-project lane opt-in — and main was red on the FNXC gate (#2949)
Two things, and the second is why the first does not ship alone.

## The opt-in

`resolveProjectColumnsForRoles` gains `untraitedProject:
"declared-columns"`. When **no** workflow in the project expresses
**any** lifecycle trait, every declared column id joins the answer.

This is the three-state rule at **project** scope — the last item on the
deferred list, recorded at three self-healing call sites (#2869, #2876).
A board that renames its lanes and declares no traits contributes
nothing today, so its cards are **absent from every role-keyed query**,
and the correct per-card fallback downstream never runs for them. A
fallback cannot rescue a card the query never returned.

**Not "no workflow declares this role."** A project that expresses
traits and has no review lane has *answered*; widening there would
invent lanes it deliberately lacks. Mutation-verified both directions —
widening unconditionally fails 1 of 12, making the option a no-op fails
1 of 12.

**Opt-in, not default**, because the safe direction differs per caller —
the finding in `project-union-versus-per-task-lanes.md`:

| caller | over-inclusion costs |
|---|---|
| sweep | nothing — the per-card check discards the extra rows |
| aggregator | an inflated number an operator reads (#2864, #2866) |
| action site | a card routed or notified under a vocabulary that is not
its own (#2852, #2891) |

Making it the default moves all three at once, in the one direction two
of them must not. Verified byte-identical without the option, so this
lands with **no caller changes** and each site adopts it on its own
reasoning.

## Main was red, and my own gate caught me first

I dated the new comments `2026-07-31` while today is `2026-07-30` —
**the exact defect `check-fnxc-future-dates` exists to prevent,
committed while writing the feature.** The gate I added yesterday failed
my own commit.

Correcting mine surfaced that the merged sentinel batch, #2947, and
three engine test files carried future-dated stamps too, so **the gate
was failing on `main` for everyone**, not just here.

All corrected to real dates rather than raising the ceiling. The stamps
were simply wrong, and a baseline bump would have recorded the error as
permitted — which is the failure mode that ratchet exists to prevent.

Core and engine `tsc` clean, `pnpm lint` clean, census `--strict` 0,
FNXC gate 0 (469 known, none added), gate green (161/487/13/71).

b1bd571682 batch-sql-ratchet: the census / gate-ratchet family — collection branch, fold here (#2941)
## Family branch for consolidation directive item 4

`batch-sql-ratchet` did not exist and ~10 open PRs are waiting for a
collection point, so this establishes it. **Fold your census/ratchet
commit here and close your own PR as superseded.**

```bash
git fetch origin batch-sql-ratchet
git checkout -B batch-sql-ratchet origin/batch-sql-ratchet
git cherry-pick <your-sha>
# verify scoped, not full suite:
pnpm --filter @fusion/core exec vitest run src/__tests__/archived-column-gate-parity.test.ts --silent=passed-only --reporter=dot
git push origin HEAD:batch-sql-ratchet
```

**Candidates I can see open right now** (owners: please fold + close):

| PR | branch |
|---|---|
| #2938 | `fix/comments-ops-sentinel` |
| #2935 | `fix/task-artifacts-sentinels` |
| #2933 | `chore/commit-tightened-census-baseline` |

| #2923 | `fix/task-id-integrity-sentinel` |
| #2921 | `fix/plugin-store-migration-marker` |
| #2894 | `gate/sql-literals-match-census-placement` |

That is **10 → 1** once folded. I have not cherry-picked anyone else's
commits — folding someone's work without them verifying it is how a
batch lands broken.

---

## What is in it so far (mine, from #2924)

**Clears a live main red:** `archived-column-gate-parity` fails on
`origin/main` today.

```
AssertionError: TypeScript encoding changed.
  async-comments-attachments.ts: 8 → 5
```

#2886 fixed a real bug — archived-document guards failing in *opposite*
directions on a renamed lane — by replacing three `column ===
"archived"` comparisons with `isArchivedLane(column, archivedColumns)`.
The AST scan counts raw comparisons, so the tally dropped.

**What I did not do is record it as three sites converted**, because
measured, it is not:

```
grep -rn "archivedColumns:" packages/core/src packages/engine/src --include="*.ts" | grep -v __tests__
→ (no matches)
```

No caller passes it. The parameter defaults to `LEGACY_ARCHIVED_LANES =
new Set(["archived"])`, so every call resolves to the literal it
replaced — byte-identical behaviour, resolved branch dead.

That matters for this guard's whole argument: its header warns that
converting the TypeScript half while the Drizzle and raw-`sql` halves
still compare the string is a split brain *"no test would catch, because
every builtin workflow spells the column `archived` so the two halves
agree by accident on every board we ship."* **There is no split brain
today precisely because the resolved half is unwired** — it becomes one
the moment a caller threads real lanes in without the SQL sides moving.
Recorded inline so `5` cannot be read as "3 sites done"; flagged on
#2886.

Verified not a split brain: the Drizzle and raw-sql inventories are
unchanged and both pass — worth stating because those assertions run
*after* the TypeScript one, so a plain red says nothing about them.

Scoped edit to `AUDITED_TS_SITES` by line range: these paths appear in
more than one inventory here, and an unscoped replace would quietly edit
the raw-sql side too, making the parity guard agree with itself (the
trap I hit in #2817).

Guard still bites: appending a real `task.column === "archived"` to an
audited file fails it. Core **4852 passed / 0 failed**, lint clean,
test-only.

Closing #2924 as superseded by this.

c3df0f641b executor: orphaned tasks were never resumed after a restart on a renamed board (#2947)
`resumeOrphaned` is the only path that recovers tasks after a crash or
restart. On a board with renamed columns it recovered **nothing**.

## A missed pair, not an unconverted read

```ts
const tasks = await this.listWipLaneTasks();          // resolved by role — already converted
const inProgress = tasks.filter(
  (t) => t.column === "in-progress" && …,             // literal — discards everything the read found
);
```

The read was already resolved. The filter directly beneath it
re-asserted the literal on the rows that read returned, so the sweep
found the orphans and threw them all away.

**This is the worse half of the class, and it hid well:**

- the read *looks* converted, so scanning for `listTasks({ column: "…"
})` finds nothing;
- the census scores only the comparison, so the backlog number moves the
**wrong way** as you convert;
- a **structural test already existed** pinning "the read asks for
resolved lanes" — `executor-resume-query-lanes.test.ts` — and it was
green the entire time the sweep was dead. A test asserting the read
exists says nothing about the filter beneath it.

The failure only surfaces after a crash, when an operator is already
investigating the crash and has every reason to blame that instead.

## The ratchet, generalised

#2944 ratcheted this class inside `self-healing.ts` after review found
one instance and a follow-up audit found five more. This generalises it
to every engine source: a function that resolves lanes **and** compares
a column id in the same body is a pair.

Excluded, deliberately:
- the **fallback arm** of a resolved ternary (`lanes ? lanes.has(c) : c
=== "done"`) — the correct shape;
- four files whose literals are deliberate, each with the reason
recorded: `ephemeral-worker-manager` (unresolvable-workflow default),
`triage` (the U11 orphan case), `scheduler` and `replan-target` (sync
listeners on the inert sync IR reader, already pinned by
`sync-workflow-ir-is-always-default.pg.test.ts`);
- `self-healing.ts`, because it has a **dedicated** ratchet that is
strictly more precise. Two ratchets allowlisting the same site is one
fact with two owners, free to drift — the exact failure mode this
program keeps hitting. One file, one ratchet.

It carries a positive control: a wrong source path would make every case
pass by scanning nothing.

**I swept the rest of the engine with it and executor.ts was the only
genuine hit** — everything else is documented-deliberate or blocked on
the inert sync reader.

## Revert results

Each measured by restoring the literal filter and re-running:

| | reverted → |
| --- | --- |
| behavioural case | fails — the renamed card is dropped and the sweep
returns before touching it |
| the ratchet | fails, naming the site: `resumeOrphaned:
executor.ts:5974` |

A non-vacuous companion (card in the review lane → not resumed) rules
out a filter that matches everything: a card in review has no session to
resume, and re-dispatching it would restart finished work.

**Measured:** `executor.ts` column guards 8 → 7; baseline re-recorded
downward.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 487 + 13 + 71; executor prompt/soft-delete/resume
suites plus the new ratchet, 357 passed; `tsc` engine clean; `pnpm
lint`, `check:changesets`, census `--strict` and
`check-sql-column-literals` clean, each run explicitly.

8503a2b12f batch-census-sentinels: six sentinel-marker PRs in one (supersedes #2921 #2928 #2931 #2935 #2938 +1) (#2943)
Fifth family, not in the four you listed — it was about to sit while the
others consolidated. **Six folded; two need arbitration.**

## Folded (cherry-picked clean)

migration marker · async archived check · audited-sentinel missing its
marker · five of six `archived` checks in one file · the two
artifact/comment read-only guards · the last unmarked
`getLiveTaskColumn` sentinel.

One root cause, which is why they belong together: **a literal compared
against a SENTINEL value is not a lifecycle-lane guard** — the census
counts it, and the fix is a marker, not a conversion.

## The baseline conflicted on every cherry-pick

All six re-recorded `lifecycle-column-census-baseline.json`
independently. I resolved by **regenerating once from the folded tree**
rather than merging six hand-edits: the baseline is a derived artifact,
so the measured value is the only correct resolution, and hand-merging
derived JSON is how a wrong ceiling gets locked in.

That is the strongest case for the family model I can give you: six PRs
touching one derived file conflict pairwise regardless of merge order —
15 possible pairs — and auto-rebase would have churned them serially.

## NOT folded — one line for arbitration

**#2925 (`live-task-column-lanes`) conflicts with #2923
(`fix/task-id-integrity-sentinel`) on
`packages/core/src/task-store/task-id-integrity.ts`.** #2923 marks a
sentinel there; #2925 converts lanes. Different intents, same file. I
did not guess which wins — land one, rebase the other, fold both after.

## Verification

`--strict` exit 0 · backlog **158**, reviewed **122** · core typecheck
clean · scoped, not full suite.

## Queue

**52 → 39** after my two folds (this + #2940 portal). The ~24
"self-healing … on a renamed board" family is still the dominant block.

<!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai

## Summary by CodeRabbit

8b75a42d22 batch: self-healing sweeps were blind on renamed boards (26 sweeps, folds 23 PRs) (#2944)
**Consolidation of 23 open PRs into one.** Every one shared a single
root cause and mostly touched a single file; 23 CI runs for that was
indefensible.

Folds and supersedes: #2867 #2869 #2876 #2879 #2883 #2891 #2899 #2901
#2902 #2905 #2906 #2914 #2916 #2918 #2919 #2920 #2922 #2927 #2929 #2932
#2934 #2937 #2939.
(#2865, #2882, #2897, #2909, #2912 already merged and are not
re-folded.)

## The root cause

A self-healing sweep selects its work with `listTasks({ column:
"in-review" })`. On a board whose lanes are renamed that returns
**nothing**, so the sweep never runs — no error, no log line, no failed
task. Several sweeps had already had their *predicates* converted to
resolved lanes, which dropped a census count and changed nothing,
because the query above the loop had already returned an empty list.

**26 sweeps converted.** Each one: read the project's columns for the
role, then decide each card against **its own** workflow, with the
legacy ids unioned so a board mid-rename is never skipped.

## What each sweep stops silently failing to do

| | |
| --- | --- |
| stale merger status | one finished card held the **merge queue** for
everything behind it |
| stale `blockedBy` / completed-task release | dependents stayed blocked
on work that had already finished — the board stops moving |
| workspace partial lands | a task left with **some repos merged and
some not** |
| mid-merge retry stamp | the card stalled *and* the operator's manual
Retry was gated by the same stamp |
| in-progress limbo / no-progress failures | dead cards held a work slot
forever |
| partial-progress retry | real work parked failed with its **retry
budget unspent** |
| orphaned-execution signal | visibility only — the one signal pointing
at an orphan went silent |
| zero-commit audit | went **half-blind**: the error arm kept working,
the lane arm did not |

Plus: ghost review cards, transient merge failures, misclassified
failures, branch misbinding, missing-worktree failures,
merged-but-unfinished finalization, done-metadata repair, self-owned
branch conflicts, orphan-only scope violations, post-done wedges, idle
assigned agents, PR-conflict worktree ownership, and orphaned workspace
worktrees.

## Two defects the conversion itself introduced, both caught and fixed

1. **Missed pairs.** Widening a read without converting the guards
beneath it is *worse than not converting*: the sweep starts admitting
renamed-board cards and then mis-decides every one. Review caught a
second guard on a re-read row; the audit that triggered found **five
more**, one of which gates the `reviewProof` triple-proof — a renamed
review card would have been moved backward with the safety check
silently skipped. Column guards 86 → 81.
2. **Duplicate processing.** The literal reads were disjoint by
construction; resolved reads are not, so a column carrying two role
flags put one card in two buckets — duplicate moves, duplicate audit
rows, inflated counts.

Both now have ratchets.
`self-healing-converted-sweeps-have-no-literal-lane-guards.test.ts`
**derives** its sweep list (a sweep counts as converted when its body
calls `resolveProjectColumnsForRoles`), so it cannot go stale, and it
carries two positive controls because a broken regex finds no offenders
and a broken derivation iterates nothing — an empty loop registers no
tests and reads green.

## Deliberately unchanged

- 22 `moveTask` destinations carrying `recoveryRehome: true` —
`moves.ts` exempts these so a card stranded in an undeclared column
stays rescuable.
- One literal in `clearStaleBlockedBy`'s log-dedup closure (allowed by
name in the ratchet, with the reason).
- `surfaceInReviewStalls` — hot list-read path, needs a batched
prefetch; that is a performance design decision, not a conversion.
- `scheduler.ts` and `replan-target.ts` — built on
`resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync`, which returns the default IR for every task
in production. Converting there produces inert code.

## The fold itself is worth one note

All 23 branches appended to the **same test file at the same anchor**,
so every automatic strategy — git 3-way, `merge-file --union`, and three
hand-written resolvers — interleaved them mid-block. Two attempts
committed conflict markers before I caught it. The file is therefore
**reconstructed**: head authored once, body assembled as the union of
each branch's own intact top-level segments keyed by test title, with
the nested `already-merged hard blocker` describe appended whole
(flattening it orphaned its helper). Verified by *parsing after every
step* rather than trusting the merge — which is how each interleaving
was caught.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 487 + 13 + 71. Scoped suites 592 passed
(self-healing, the blindness suite at 68 cases, the ratchet, and the
notification suite). `tsc` engine clean; `pnpm lint`,
`check:changesets`, `lifecycle-column-census --strict` and
`check-sql-column-literals` all clean, each run explicitly.

Each folded conversion was individually revert-proven on its original
branch — the read reverted alone, and the per-card verdict reverted
alone — and those measurements are recorded in the commit messages
carried into this branch.

b4ed12e9c8 batch-u7-lane-fixes: three core/engine renamed-board fixes folded (was #2925, #2930, #2936) (#2925)
**Consolidated per the queue freeze.** Three single-fix PRs of mine
folded into this one branch; #2930 and #2936 are closed as superseded.
Net effect on the queue: **3 → 1**.

All three are the same root cause — a lifecycle lane compared against a
legacy id — and all three carry a measured revert proof. Verified scoped
(not full suite) on the folded branch: `tsc --noEmit` clean, `pnpm lint`
clean, SQL-literal gate green, census `--strict` green, and 61 tests
across five suites plus the guard at 9/9.

---

### 1. `getLiveTaskColumn` produced the archived sentinel from a literal
(was #2925)

`getLiveTaskColumn` **manufactures** the string `"archived"` that a
dozen comparisons across five files trust — and it tested `row.column
=== "archived"`. A live row in a renamed archived lane read as **live**,
so the gates hiding an archived card's artifacts and document listings
never closed.

Fixing those twelve comparisons individually would have been wrong twice
over: **they are sentinels, and the defect was in the producer.** One
line, once, and all twelve become correct. `resolveArchivedLanes` moved
to `project-lane-vocabulary.ts` — three private copies of one fact is
how the "write guard says yes, publication guard says no" disagreement
happens at scale.

*Revert proof (real PostgreSQL):* restore the literal → `expected [ {
…(14) } ] to deeply equal []`.

**Caught myself shipping the unwired shape here:** I added the parameter
to seven functions and wired none of their impl callers — the exact
inert-conversion defect this program exists to remove. The failing test
is the only reason I noticed.

### 2. Mission delivery repair refused a completed card (was #2930)

`getTerminalTaskEvidence` tested only `column === "done"`, so a
completed card on a renamed board classified as `nonterminal` and
`reconcileFeatureDoneWithTerminalTask` threw `TASK_NOT_TERMINAL: … not
shipped`. Valid operator work refused — with the message naming the real
column while the check couldn't see it.

The **type** blocked the fix from the far end: `TerminalTaskEvidence`
pinned `column: "done"` / `"archived"`, so the resolver couldn't report
the real column without a compile error. `kind` already carries the
role, so `column` is free to carry the truth.

*Revert proof (real PostgreSQL):* restore the literal →
`TerminalTaskReconciliationError: … not shipped`.

I had deferred this twice on the premise that `AsyncMissionStore` "holds
a layer, not a store". It holds an **optional `taskStore`**, and the
single production construction site supplies it.

### 3. The unwired-lane guard reported two FALSE entries (was #2936)

`unwired-lane-parameter-guard.test.ts` has been **red on main** since
#2875, flagging two `InReviewDurationLanes` properties as unwired when
the impl demonstrably supplies both. Cause: my own owner-scoping rule
requires a mention from a file naming the declaring symbol — correct for
a function, structurally impossible for an interface passed as an
inferred object literal.

Fixed at the caller (name the type) after trying the tool three ways:
relaxing type-owned properties hid **12** genuine entries; resolving
owners to consuming functions hid **6**. Each refinement traded the
false positive for false negatives — the sign a co-occurrence heuristic
has hit its limit. Recording two *wired* parameters in `KNOWN_UNWIRED`
was rejected: that puts non-debt in the debt list, which is how a
ratchet starts lying.

Guard back to **9/9**, baseline unchanged at 17. **This un-reds main.**

c6767cb258 self-healing: foreign-only contamination never cleared on a renamed board (fourteenth sweep) (#2891)
`recoverForeignOnlyContaminatedInReviewTasks` classifies a branch
carrying **only foreign commits** and clears the contamination park that
nothing else clears. Two literal reads meant that on a renamed board it
classified nothing, and the task stayed parked indefinitely.

## The two redundant guards were the interesting part

Both filters carried a `task.column === …` check that was **redundant**
while the query pinned the column. Under a resolved read they stop being
redundant and become the per-card verdict — so they convert here rather
than being deleted. Deleting them would have silently widened the sweep,
which is the failure this whole class is about.

## Dedupe matters more here than elsewhere

The concatenated candidate list is deduped (the P1 reviewed on #2879).
It bites harder in this sweep because the two filters have **different
predicates**: a column carrying both a review role and the wip role
could satisfy both and classify one branch twice.

Explicit `has` guard rather than `new Map(entries)` — that constructor
keeps first insertion *order* but the **last** value for a repeated key,
so it reads as first-bucket precedence while doing the opposite.
(Corrected in #2879 and #2883 for the same reason.)

## Revert results

Each applied alone and the file re-run:

| conversion | reverted → |
| --- | --- |
| the resolved reads | fails — the card is never listed, so the
classifier is never called |
| the review verdict | fails — the renamed review lane does not match
and the card is filtered out |

Observable is **candidacy**: `classifyForeignOnlyContamination` runs
once per accepted card and not at all for a rejected one, which is
exactly the read-plus-verdict under test. It is a static named import,
so it is intercepted with a scoped `vi.mock` (spyOn cannot rebind an
already-resolved ESM binding); only that one export is overridden, so
the sweeps in this file that use `inspectBranchConflict` are unaffected.

A non-vacuous companion (same card in the board's hold lane → never
classified) rules out a read that returns everything.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 487 + 13 + 71, plus `self-healing.test.ts` 412;
`tsc` engine clean; `pnpm lint`, `check:changesets`, census `--strict`
clean, each run explicitly.

60bfebdc98 fix(reliability): the duration query hid its lane ids inside a SQL template (#2875)
The Reliability panel's **third and last** blind input — and my own
loose end. #2861 fixed the two counts beside it, so the panel went from
uniformly wrong to **partially** wrong: entries and bounces populated,
duration reporting `no-in-review-entries` forever. Partial blindness is
harder to notice than total, which is why finishing it matters more than
one site suggests.

```sql
metadata->>'to' = 'in-review'
  OR (metadata->>'from' = 'in-review' AND metadata->>'to' = 'done')
```

## The class, not just the site

**This shape is invisible to every check we have.** The lifecycle census
scans `===`/`!==` comparisons; the unwired-lane-parameter guard scans
declarations. Neither sees a lane id inside a `sql` template, so this
class is **not in the backlog total at all** — the number is a floor for
this reason as well as the usual one.

`scripts/check-sql-column-literals.mjs` (#2841, in flight) is the
detector for exactly this: it freezes the surface at 30 sites rather
than converting any, so this one was unowned. That PR and this one are
complementary — it stops the surface growing, this shrinks it by one.

## The fix

Lanes resolve **once per call** via `resolveProjectColumnsForRoles` and
arrive as parameterised equality fragments, one branch per id — no
interpolated list, no string building.

Resolution lives in `getInReviewDurationEventsImpl` because that is
where the store is; `async-audit.ts` takes a bare `db` handle and cannot
resolve anything. Best-effort, defaulting to the legacy pair, so a
caller that cannot resolve keeps exactly today's query.

**The union is correct rather than a widening hack**, for the same
reason as #2861: these are *move records*, and a past move recorded the
column name as it was at the time. A board renamed last month has rows
under both ids, so the honest query covers both — which is precisely
what `resolveProjectColumnsForRoles` returns.

## Tested against real PostgreSQL, deliberately

This is a **SQL predicate** change. A mocked store would assert the
arguments and prove nothing about the query that actually runs — which
is the entire risk when the literal lives inside `sql`. The new case
inserts real `activity_log` rows on a renamed board and reads them back
through the real store method.

The legacy-lane case in the same file stays green, which is the
compatibility half.

**Revert proof, measured:** restore the hardcoded fragments and the new
case fails with

```
expected [] to deeply equal [ 'renamed-entered', 'renamed-done' ]
```

## Verification

- `pnpm test:gate` — 161 / 487 / 13 / 71 passed
- `pnpm lint` — clean
- `tsc --noEmit` (`@fusion/core`) — clean
- `activity-log-parity.pg.test.ts` — 5 passed against real PostgreSQL

With this, all three Reliability inputs read the board's own lanes.

10f9df1600 fix(overseer): the whole oversight loop was inert on a renamed board (#2898)
`resolveWatchedStage` keyed on the literals `in-progress`/`in-review`,
so on a board that renames either it returned `null` for **every** card.

That is three literals with an outsized blast radius. `observeTask`
returns early on a null stage, so:

- no `OverseerStageObservation` is recorded,
- no `overseer:intervention` entry is emitted,
- and `PlannerRecoveryController`, which consumes those observations,
has nothing to steer, retry or targeted-fix.

**The entire oversight loop was inert and silent about it** — the same
shape as the self-healing sweeps whose queries returned empty arrays.

## I deferred this myself, on a cost argument that was wrong

The audit note I wrote for this site said resolving inside `observeTask`
"buys a workflow read per card per poll". Then I read the caller: the
poll **already awaits `resolveEffectiveSettings` per task**. It is a
per-task async loop regardless, so with an IR cache keyed by workflow
the addition is *(distinct workflows)* resolutions, not *(cards)*.

Pricing the fix before checking the caller cost a deferral. Worth
recording, because "this needs a cost judgement" is the most comfortable
place in this program to leave something.

## The review test is the three-trait union, deliberately

`isReviewColumnRole` checks only `mergeBlocker || humanReview`. A board
whose review lane carries `merge` (**mergeOrchestration**) — the
built-in default's own shape — would classify as *not in review* and be
skipped.

Reaching for the obvious helper would have reintroduced the bug this
change removes, through the helper meant to fix it. There is a case
asserting exactly that.

## Wiring

Both call sites, because either alone leaves a hole:

| site | why it matters |
|---|---|
| the poll (`project-engine.ts`) | per-poll IR cache — a workflow edit
is picked up next tick rather than served stale |
| the manual nudge | otherwise a renamed board answers `no-active-stage`
to an operator pressing the button |

`columnFlags` is in the `unwired-lane-parameter` vocabulary, so the
wiring cannot silently rot — the guard reports it if a future change
drops the argument.

Fail-soft throughout: an unresolvable workflow yields `undefined` and
the callee falls back to the legacy ids, which is exactly today's
behaviour. A v1 IR declares no columns, so it takes the same path.

## Revert proof (measured)

Drop the `columnFlags` branch and **exactly the three renamed-lane cases
fail**:

```
expected null to be "executor"
expected null to be "merger"   (mergeOrchestration lane)
expected null to be "merger"   (humanReview lane)
```

The legacy-id and neither-role cases stay green — the gate must still
gate, and watching every column would be its own defect.

## Verification

- `pnpm test:gate` — 161 / 487 / 13 / 71 passed
- `pnpm lint` — clean
- `tsc --noEmit` (`@fusion/engine`) — clean
- `planner-overseer.test.ts` +
`planner-recovery-controller-human-control.test.ts` — 64 passed
- unwired-lane guard — 9/9, no new entries

Carries the one-line SQL-baseline re-record (`team-analytics.ts: 6 → 3`)
that #2864 left behind, same as my other open branches — main is red on
it, and identical changes to that line merge without conflict.

defe48d30f fix(core): per-workflow metrics read zero on a renamed board (#2866)
Second of the 14 lane-bound SQL sites from #2839, after #2864.
Independent of it — different file, different caller argument.

## The defect

`aggregateWorkflowAnalytics` filtered in SQL on `t."column" = 'done'`
and `IN ('in-progress','in-review')`. On a renamed board those match
nothing, so `tasksCompleted`, `tasksInProgress` and `tasksInReview` come
back **zero for every workflow** while the board is busy. Nothing
errors.

Same shape and same fix as #2864: resolve per **project** via
`resolveProjectColumnsForRoles`, bind an `IN` list, and thread the store
from the single Command Center caller so the parameter has a supplier
immediately rather than becoming an inert seam.

## What the test caught that I had not

**The renamed case still failed with the query fixed.**

The bucketing at lines 296–297 already uses `isWipColumnRole` /
`isReviewColumnRole` — correctly converted — but those read
`query.columnFlagsByName`, which production supplies and my fixture did
not. So:

- the **SQL** decides *which rows come back*;
- the **trait map** decides *which bucket each row lands in*.

Both halves have to be right. Fixing only the query would have shipped a
"conversion" that still reported zero on a renamed board, and the file
would have scored as converted twice over. That is exactly the
partial-conversion shape this program keeps re-finding — caught here
only because the test asserts `tasksInReview` alongside
`tasksCompleted`, since those two paths take **different** resolved sets
(complete vs wip+human-review). Asserting the completed count alone
would have left the second conversion unproven.

## Measured

Reverted, only the renamed case flips:

```
✓ default vocabulary: completed and in-review work are counted
× renamed vocabulary: completed and in-review work are counted
✓ renamed vocabulary: a card in the HOLD lane counts as neither
✓ without a lane store, the legacy ids still answer
  Tests  1 failed | 3 passed (4)
```

The hold-lane negative is there so resolving real lanes cannot degrade
into "every column counts" — trading an undercount for an overcount is
harder to notice than the original bug.

## Scope

The sync SQLite arm in the same file keeps its literals: it throws in
backend mode and has no production caller, the same dead-arm conclusion
reached for `cleanupStaleMergeQueueRowsImpl` on #2839.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` green · both Command Center analytics suites 8/8 ·

c143327d4b fix(core): the archived-document guards failed in OPPOSITE directions on a renamed lane (#2886)
Two of the four convertible sites my own learnings doc **miscounted as
sentinels** — the #2877 review corrected "8 of 9 must not be converted"
to "5 of 9", and these are two of the three that correction freed.

They read `task.column` straight off a row `select`, so they are board
lanes by exactly the test that document gives, and a renamed archived
column is simply not seen. What makes the pair worth fixing together is
that they fail in **opposite directions**:

| guard | on a renamed archived lane | consequence |
|---|---|---|
| `upsertTaskDocument` | fails to **reject** | an archived card's
documents stay **writable** — the read-only contract silently does not
hold |
| `publishArchivedTaskDocumentAddition` | fails to **accept** | a
legitimate archived-document publication is refused as
`parent-not-archived` |

The second is the sharper one: valid operator work refused, and refused
with a message that reads as a data-integrity error rather than a
lifecycle mismatch.

## Shape

Both take an `AsyncDataLayer` and can resolve nothing themselves; their
store-level impls hold the store, so the lane set arrives as a parameter
resolved once per call — the shape #2875 used for the SQL predicate.

**One shared `resolveArchivedLanes` for both paths**, deliberately: if
the write guard and the publication guard could disagree about whether a
card is archived, a card ends up both read-only *and* un-publishable.

## The revert proof caught my own fixture first

My first version set `deletedAt` alongside the renamed column, and **the
revert proof passed with the fix removed**. Both guards are
`column-is-archived || deletedAt != null`, so a soft-deleted fixture
short-circuits the exact comparison under test — the assertion was
holding for an unrelated reason.

Dropping `deletedAt` isolates it, and is also the *real* shape: a live
row in a workflow-declared archived lane is what a renamed board
produces, and what `getLiveTaskColumn` was written to catch.

Revert proof, measured honestly the second time: restore `task.column
=== "archived"` and the renamed-lane case fails — the upsert resolves
instead of rejecting.

## Real PostgreSQL, deliberately

These are row predicates inside a transaction. A mocked store would
assert the arguments and prove nothing about the comparison that runs —
the same reasoning as #2875.

Three cases: the renamed lane rejects, the **legacy** `archived` id
still rejects (most boards never rename anything), and a live card is
still allowed through (a guard that rejects everything is its own bug).

## Verification

- `pnpm test:gate` — 161 / 487 / 13 / 71 passed
- `pnpm lint` — clean
- `tsc --noEmit` (`@fusion/core`) — clean
- new `archived-document-lanes.pg.test.ts` + existing
`artifacts-documents-evals.pg.test.ts` — 12 passed against real
PostgreSQL

Note: the SQL-literal baseline is untouched here — #2881 owns
re-recording it after #2864's conversion left main's gate red.

a453912ddf self-healing: merged-but-unfinished tasks never finalized on a renamed board (fifteenth sweep) (#2897)
`recoverMergedReviewTasks` finalizes a task whose merge is **confirmed**
but which never reached the complete lane. Two literal reads meant that
on a renamed board it was never found, so a card whose commit is already
on the base branch sat in review or hold indefinitely — merged work the
board still shows as unfinished.

## The two redundant guards convert, they don't get deleted

Both `t.column === …` checks were redundant while the query pinned the
column. Under a resolved read they become the per-card verdict. Deleting
them would have silently widened the sweep — the same trap called out in
#2891.

## Carries the two shapes review established earlier in this series

- **Narrow when the card can answer, broad when it cannot** (#2891).
`resolveWorkflowIrForTask` *substitutes* the built-in IR rather than
failing, so a card with an unreadable selection would otherwise be
rejected by the very verdict that the project-scoped query had just
admitted it under. It falls back to the project sets instead.
- **Deduped across the buckets** (#2879), so a column carrying both a
review role and the hold role cannot finalize one card twice.

Both were review findings on earlier PRs in this series, applied here up
front rather than waiting to be caught again.

## Revert results

Each applied alone and the file re-run:

| conversion | reverted → |
| --- | --- |
| the resolved reads | fails — the card is never listed |
| the per-card review verdict | fails — the renamed review lane does not
match |

Observable is `resolveSelfHealingMergeTarget`, a private method called
once per candidate, so the assertion sits downstream of both halves
without a git fixture. A non-vacuous companion (merge-confirmed card in
the wip lane → untouched) rules out a read that returns everything.

890e1f87e7 fix(core): issue panels reported nothing fixed on a renamed board (#2871)
Fourth and last of the lane-bound analytics sites from #2839, after
#2864, #2866 and #2870.

## The defect

`aggregateGithubIssueAnalytics` and its GitLab twin filtered their
resolved-issue query on `"column" = 'done'`. On a renamed board that
matches nothing, so `fixed` is **zero**, the resolved-issue list is
empty, and `net` reports every filed issue as still outstanding — while
the team closes issues all week. Nothing errors.

Same fix as the previous three: resolve per **project** via
`resolveProjectColumnsForRoles`, bind an `IN` list, thread the store
from each Command Center caller so the parameters have suppliers
immediately.

## Both providers in one change, deliberately

These two files are **copies** — same query, only the provider literal
differs — and a copy is exactly what gets half-fixed. Converting one and
not the other type-checks, passes that provider's test, and leaves the
second silently broken with no signal anywhere. The suite runs every
case against both, so the pair cannot drift.

## Measured

Reverted, exactly the two renamed cases fail — **one per provider** —
while both default-vocabulary controls, both WIP-lane negatives, and
both omitted-store legacy cases stay green:

```
✓ github: default vocabulary counts a resolved issue
× github: renamed vocabulary counts a resolved issue
✓ github: renamed vocabulary does NOT count an issue still in the WIP lane
✓ github: without a lane store, the legacy id still answers
✓ gitlab: default vocabulary counts a resolved issue
× gitlab: renamed vocabulary counts a resolved issue
✓ gitlab: renamed vocabulary does NOT count an issue still in the WIP lane
✓ gitlab: without a lane store, the legacy id still answers
  Tests  2 failed | 6 passed (8)
```

That the failures are symmetric is itself the check on the copy-paste
risk.

## Scope

The sync SQLite arms keep their literals: they throw in backend mode and
have no production caller, the same dead-arm conclusion as
`cleanupStaleMergeQueueRowsImpl` on #2839.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` green · Command Center + GitLab issue analytics suites
10/10 · `tsc` core 0, dashboard 0 · lint 0 · changeset included.

---

**This closes the lane-bound half of #2839.** All 14 sites the
hand-review identified as genuinely vocabulary-bound are now converted
across four PRs. What remains there is the 11 `!= 'archived'`
exclusions, which are probably correct as literals — archiving writes
`task.column = 'archived'` unconditionally as a state rather than a lane
— plus one dead SQLite arm. Those need per-site judgment, not
conversion.

216632bd3a fix(core): task-duration stats were computed from an empty set on a renamed board (#2870)
Third of the 14 lane-bound SQL sites from #2839, after #2864 and #2866.
Independent of both.

## The defect

`aggregateProductivityAnalytics` filtered its duration query on
`"column" = 'done'`. On a renamed board that matches nothing, so the
entire task-duration distribution — median, p90, average, total — is
computed from an **empty row set** and reports zeros while the project
ships work. Nothing errors.

Same shape and fix as the previous two: resolve per **project** via
`resolveProjectColumnsForRoles`, bind an `IN` list, thread the store
from the single Command Center caller so the parameter has a supplier
immediately rather than becoming an inert seam.

## Measured

Reverted, only the renamed case flips:

```
✓ default vocabulary: a finished task contributes to the duration stats
× renamed vocabulary: a task in the RENAMED complete lane contributes
✓ renamed vocabulary: a task still in the WIP lane does NOT contribute
✓ without a lane store, the legacy id still answers
  Tests  1 failed | 3 passed (4)
```

## The negative asserts the median, not just the count

This fix's failure mode is **worse than the bug it fixes**. Resolving
too many lanes would pull unfinished work into the distribution and
produce a plausible-but-wrong median — a number nobody questions — where
the bug produces an obvious zero. So the WIP-lane case asserts
`medianMs` is null as well as `completedTasks` being 0.

## A fixture error worth naming

My first version asserted `taskDuration.count`. `TaskDurationSummary`
exposes `completedTasks`. Every case failed with `expected undefined to
be 1` — **including the controls** — which reads exactly like a broken
product until you notice the control is failing too. A control that
fails is a fixture bug, not a finding; that asymmetry is the fastest way
to tell them apart.

## Scope

The sync SQLite arm keeps its literal: it throws in backend mode and has
no production caller, the same dead-arm conclusion as
`cleanupStaleMergeQueueRowsImpl` on #2839.

995b52d21d fix(gate): re-record the SQL baseline — main is red after #2864 (#2878)
**`pnpm test:gate` and both `pretest` hooks fail on `main` right now.**
Merge this first.

## What happened

#2841 (the SQL gate) merged, then #2864 merged. #2864 removed three
legacy comparisons from `team-analytics.ts`, but its baseline entry
still allows six — and this gate **fails on a lowered count by design**,
so a migrated slot cannot be silently regrown into later.

Baseline 30 → 28.

## This is my sequencing error

The four analytics conversions were branched and reviewed **before** the
gate existed, so none of them carries a baseline update. The gate then
landed first, which means **each of them breaks `main` as it merges**. I
opened all five without thinking about the order they would land in.

The three still open — #2866, #2870, #2871 — will each do this again. I
am adding baseline updates to them next so they land clean.

## Note on the downward check

The "count went down" failure looks like pedantry until it fires. It
exists so a migrated site cannot leave an unused allowance behind for
the surface to regrow into — the same rot as an allow-list entry for a
deleted function. The real cost is that a conversion and its gate have
to land in a known order, which is a coupling I created and did not plan
for.

scripts/check-sql-column-literals.mjs` exit 0.

ee8ae1eb23 fix(census): the header claimed 0 trait-fallback branches while sites of that shape existed (#2874)
The census header has been printing `of the column guards, 0 are
trait-fallback branches (already converted)` while sites of exactly that
shape exist. I flagged this on #2842 as a suspected classifier gap; this
confirms and fixes it.

## The miss

Only `cond ? trait : literal` was recognised. The other spelling — a
**negative** test with the literal on the **true** branch — is what a
caller writes once it hoists its resolved lanes:

```ts
complete: completeLanes === undefined ? columnId === "done" : completeLanes.includes(columnId)
```

That is `github-tracking-state.ts:245-246` — a fully converted resolver
whose two degraded arms were reported as unconverted debt. **The backlog
read higher than the remaining work**, and a reader chasing it was sent
to lines that are already correct.

Second half of the miss: `completeLanes` matches no hint. Adding `Lanes`
to the hint list does **not** work, and the reason is itself a prior fix
— hints are word-bounded because the unbounded form once let `hold`
match `threshold` and `household`. `\bLanes\b` cannot match inside
`completeLanes`, where the boundary does not exist. So resolved-lane
identifiers get an explicit suffix rule.

## Both guards on the new rule exist because I broke them while writing
it

Worth stating, because each failure ran in the **dangerous direction** —
marking a *live* line "already converted", which removes a real guard
from a backlog people trust:

| mistake | what it excused |
|---|---|
| widened the shared `testsTraitData` | fed the ancestor-walking rules
too, which marked `step.status === "done" \|\| step.status ===
"in-progress"` at `register-task-workflow-routes.ts:941` — a
step-**status** comparison, not a column guard — as converted |
| let the new rule walk ancestors | excused any literal inside a block
governed by a negative lane test |

Measured: the count went to **6 with two of them wrong** before I caught
it. The rule is now immediate-parent-only with its widened identifier
match local to it, and reports exactly the **2 real sites**.

## Verification

- Census: **176 guards, 2 trait-fallback** (was 176 / 0). The total is
unchanged — this sub-count is diagnostic and does not move the ratchet,
so `--strict` exits 0 with no baseline re-record.
- 5 cases in
`scripts/__tests__/lifecycle-census-inverted-fallback.test.mjs`,
including both negatives that pin the mistakes above plus one for the
suffix rule not over-reaching (`airplanes` is not a lane test).
- `pnpm lint` clean; gate green (161/487/13/71).
