docs(solutions): the general shape — a green that answers a different question (#3273)
Extends the doc merged in #3255 with two more instances of the same pattern, both found this session, **neither involving a ratchet**. Four instances now, from four unrelated directions: | what was read as "pass" | what the green actually meant | | --- | --- | | `node scripts/check-*.mjs` exits 0 | report-only mode — the failure path needs `--strict` | | a census reports 0 for a new file | the file is untracked, so it was never scanned | | a backgrounded `cmd > log; grep …` reports exit 0 | that is `grep`'s status; the suite inside had 8 failures | | a rebased branch's tests pass | the rebase never started, so it ran on the **old** base | The two new ones are worth writing down because they are not about tooling anyone built here — they are about how results are read. **Exit codes belong to the last command in the pipeline.** A backgrounded `run_tests > log 2>&1; echo done; grep X log` exits with `grep`'s status, so the harness reported "completed, exit code 0" for a dashboard suite that had 8 failures. I nearly recorded that suite as green. Read the summary out of the log; never infer a suite's result from a wrapper's exit code. **A failed rebase leaves you on the old base, and the tests still pass there.** `git rebase` refused with `cannot rebase: You have unstaged changes`, so the branch never moved. `git diff origin/main` then listed 20+ files including other workers' commits — which reads exactly like my branch had reverted their work — and a full test run on that tree came back green. Both signals were true about a tree nobody cared about. ``` git merge-base --is-ancestor origin/main HEAD ``` said STALE while the tests said pass. That is the only check that separates the two, and it belongs before any claim of "verified on current main". The shared tell, stated once: **a result too clean, or too alarming, for what changed.** Every probe shape passing including ones that obviously should not; a two-file branch appearing to revert twenty. When the answer does not fit the size of the question, find out what was actually measured before believing it. ## Verification Docs only; no code paths change. `lifecycle-columns`, `move-target-literals`, `inert-sync-lanes`, `quarantine-ledger` all exit 0. No changeset — AGENTS.md excludes internal docs. **Pre-existing red, not from this branch:** `check:fnxc-future-dates` currently fails on main from a `2026-08-01-00:50` stamp in `packages/core/src/task-store/lifecycle-ops.ts` (commit `e52da740a5`) — a timezone-ahead clock writing tomorrow's date, at 23:45 UTC. Already claimed by **#3269 and #3270**, so I have not touched it; flagging only so this branch's CI result is not misattributed. It is the same recurring class this doc's sibling rule addresses: take the stamp from `date -u`, not the local clock. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Added guidance for identifying misleadingly successful CI and test results. * Documented checks for report-only runs, untracked files, masked failures, and tests running on an outdated code base. * Included recommendations for reviewing logs and verifying branch ancestry. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(solutions): add the count-based probe, which the report-only trap cannot fool (#3257)
## What Adds one technique to #3255. Docs only. #3255 records that probing a ratchet **by exit code** can read green because the tool is report-only without `--strict` — a real trap that nearly got a healthy gate reported as dead. There is a second technique that sidesteps it entirely and is strictly more informative: **parse the tool's own per-file count.** ```bash node scripts/check-move-target-literals.mjs 2>&1 | grep -a "my-probe-tmp" \ | grep -aoE "^ +[0-9]+" | tr -d ' ' ``` **Immune to the report-only trap** — a report-only run still *prints* the count, so the number moves 0 → 1 whether or not `--strict` was passed. **It measures which shapes, not just whether something fired.** An exit code is one bit for the whole run. Auditing a detector means asking *"of these five spellings, which are seen?"*, and five separate binary runs cannot distinguish **partial** detection from a probe file that failed to compile. The move-target audit read `direct 1 / backtick 1 / ternary 0 / const 0` in a single run, which named the gap immediately. ## Both belong | question | technique | |---|---| | **can this ratchet fail at all?** | `pnpm check:*` — ask this first (#3255 §1) | | **what can it see?** | per-file counts — an exit code is too coarse | I also added a caveat that applies to both: confirm the probe is actually being scanned by watching the tool's **scanned-file total** move. A probe that never compiled and a probe the tool never discovered both report zero hits, and neither is a finding — that one cost me a wasted measurement before I noticed the total had stayed at 1961. ## Why this is worth a follow-up rather than a comment #3255's rule as written — *"use `pnpm check:*`, not a bare `node scripts/...`"* — would have made the shape-coverage audits impossible, since `--strict` collapses five distinct per-form answers into one bit. The rule is right for its question and wrong for the other one, and the distinction is easy to lose once only the rule survives in someone's memory. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Added guidance for evaluating ratchets using per-file output counts. * Documented report-only and shape-coverage limitations, count-based versus failure-based checks, and verifying that probe files were scanned. * Included a command example for probing ratchet behavior. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(solutions): probe the instrument the way CI runs it (#3255)
Records two instrument-level defects found this session. Both were in the tools the program uses as ground truth, and both looked exactly like a pass. ## 1. A ratchet that could not fail from the command I typed `check-move-target-literals` is report-only unless given `--strict`, which `package.json` supplies. Probed bare, it returned **exit 0 for every probe** — including a blatant `moveTask(id, "in-review")` pasted into `scheduler.ts`. That is the exact signature of a dead ratchet, and I nearly reported another worker's guard as inert on the strength of it. The guard was fine; my invocation could not fail. What makes it dangerous is the output: a report-only run prints its normal summary line and exits 0, so the terminal is indistinguishable from a genuine pass. ## 2. A ratchet that could not see the file I had just written `lifecycle-column-census` and `check-move-target-literals` discovered files with `git ls-files` — **tracked only** — while the other five walk the filesystem. | new file with a plain legacy guard | result | | --- | --- | | same guard in an already-tracked file | caught | | new file, untracked | **missed, exit 0** | | identical file, `git add`ed | caught, exit 1 | The detectors are fine. The blindness is discovery, and it lands at the one moment the number is consulted: add a helper, check your own work, read zero, commit — and it surfaces later in someone else's CI run, attributed to a push instead of to the edit. The tool was answering about the last commit while being asked about the working tree. ## 3. Why it is worth a doc rather than two one-line fixes Individually these are cheap. Together they cost a day. Because `check-inert-sync-lane-conversions` walks the filesystem and the census did not, the **same probe file** was caught by one and missed by the other. I read that differential as a claim about expression walking and investigated it as one — the real cause was that two instruments in the same program disagreed about which files exist. When the measuring tools disagree about their own domain, every differential between them is unreadable until someone notices. That is the transferable lesson, and it is not visible from either fix alone. ## Status of the fixes - Census discovery scope: **#3254** (open). - Type-assertion blind spot in the sync-lane ratchet: **#3252** (open). - `check-move-target-literals` discovery scope: reported to **#3253**, whose author is already in that file — not touching it. ## Verification Docs only; no code paths change. All eight ratchets exit 0. No changeset — AGENTS.md excludes internal docs. |

docs(solutions): record what each lifecycle ratchet cannot see, measured (#3251)
## What This note already prescribes: *"Before trusting a ratchet: mutate the shape it claims to catch and confirm it exits non-zero."* This is that checklist item **executed against all five lifecycle gates** on one tree, one staged probe file per form. Docs only. **Two of the five were wrong.** | gate | catches | does NOT catch | |---|---|---| | `lifecycle-column-census` | `===` / `!==` | ~~membership, switch~~ **fixed (#3247)** | | `check-move-target-literals` | direct + backtick destinations | ~~ternary~~ **fixed (#3250)**; still misses a destination bound to a local | | `check-sql-column-literals` | `"column"` comparisons — **including plain template literals**, not only drizzle `sql` tags | nothing; the one miss probed was an identifier the schema never uses | | `check-inert-sync-lane-conversions` | lane reads via the `resolvePlannerLanes` helper | a **direct** `store.resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync(...)` read feeding `resolveLifecycleColumns` — inert by the same mechanism, untracked | | `check-fnxc-future-dates` | future stamps | nothing — it caught this table's author, twice | ## The two lessons the table encodes **A ratchet's blind spot is invisible in exactly the way its subject is.** Both fixed gaps sat next to a printed zero *and a sentence promising nothing could land silently*. The count was true. The sentence was true only for the forms the parser happened to visit. That is the same shape as the conversions this program spent weeks finding — code that looks converted because the instrument cannot see the difference. **Probe correctness is its own trap.** The first census probe measured nothing: the scanner enumerates git-tracked files, the probe was untracked, and the scanned-file count staying flat reads *exactly* like "no gap". A `DELIBERATE-LITERAL` probe likewise read as a broken escape hatch until the marker moved to its own line — mid-expression it attaches to the wrong node, which is the documented gotcha, and it still caught the person who had just written it down. ## Reported, not fixed The inert-sync gap is left open deliberately: it is one narrow shape, the only in-tree instance (`replan-target.ts:95`) is documented, new conversions would use the tracked helper, and that gate has uncommitted work from another worker. Recording it beats editing a file someone else is mid-change on. ``` lint clean; fnxc-future-dates: none added; all five gates --strict green on this tree ``` |

docs(solutions): add the CI failure-rate method, and a fourth instance (#3244)
## What Follow-up to #3243. That note said *"take a second measurement of a different kind"* — true, and useless at 2am without the technique. This adds the one that actually settled every case, plus a fourth instance that occurred after #3243 was written. Docs only. ## The technique Enumerate recent failing CI runs and compute a **per-file failure rate**. Seven runs separated three populations that are indistinguishable from a single local run: | rate on CI | meaning | action | |---|---|---| | **7/7** | consistent, real | fix, or diagnose and hand off with evidence | | **1/7** | intermittent | flake or race; two in one subsystem is a product-race smell | | **0/7** (fails only locally) | environment | fix your sandbox, change **nothing** in the repo | Measured on this repo's main while writing it: `planning-browser-e2e` **7/7**, `postgres/schema-applier` **1/7**, `report-store.pg` **1/7**. ## The fourth instance #3243 documented three reversals. A fourth happened after it merged: a component test with **2 failing cases locally, 0/7 on CI**. That makes **three separate local-only failures in a single session** — a model-routes test hanging offline, a component test with four failing cases, and a set of assertions I was ready to call a regression. Each felt like a finding. All three were my sandbox. That is frequent enough to be a habit rather than bad luck, which is why it is worth a row in a table rather than a mention. ## The cost asymmetry, which should drive the default Acting on a **0/7** by quarantining **deletes coverage that is green everywhere else**. Acting on a **7/7** by investigating costs an hour. The errors are not symmetric, so when unsure which row you are in, the cheap move is always more samples from the *other* environment — not more confidence about the one you have. This is the concrete form of the point the standing quarantine rule already encodes with *"without a corresponding real bug"*: **"I saw it fail" is not that clause**, and the failure-rate table is how you tell the difference before acting. ``` lint clean; fnxc-future-dates: none added (exit code checked before piping) ``` |

docs(solutions): record "one sample is not a diagnosis" (#3243)
## What A `docs/solutions` note recording three diagnoses I reversed **in one session**, all wrong the same way. Docs only. ## The three | observed | my story | what it was | |---|---|---| | `planning-browser-e2e` fails at width **769**, passes at **768** | layout regression at the tablet breakpoint, from FN-8606 | a **race** — 5 passes in 6 runs; on every pass the control sits inside the viewport at 769 (`right: 753 ≤ 769`) | | a model-routes test fails **3 of 3** locally | red on main; quarantine candidate | **green on CI**; a sandbox interaction. The fixture is configured offline, so a sandbox should not have changed the outcome — the tell was there from run one | | one approach could not cover a resolver | the site is **unpinnable** | a *different shape* covered it — a helper that **resolves** rather than one that **receives** | Each was plausible, mechanistic, and consistent with the evidence I had. That is what made each dangerous: **a diagnosis that explains your one data point feels finished.** Each survived exactly until a second measurement **of a different kind** — another environment, more samples, an instrumented probe. Re-running the same command is not a second measurement. ## The reusable part | observation | tempting story | check first | |---|---|---| | fails at boundary X, passes at X−1 | structural bug at the boundary | run it 5 more times — boundaries are where races surface | | **consistent** locally, green on CI | main is broken | the environment; consistency is not universality | | **intermittent** locally, consistent on CI | flaky test | a race the slower runner loses every time | | one approach failed | the site cannot be done | whether a different *shape* of the approach works | ## Why it matters beyond debugging hygiene Two of the three would have caused real damage if acted on: - Quarantining the model-routes test — the action the standing rule seems to license on "observed failing" — would have **deleted coverage that is green everywhere else**. The rule's *"without a corresponding real bug"* clause is load-bearing, and a local observation does not satisfy it. - "Unpinnable" hardened a single failed approach into a property of the site. Left standing, it becomes a permanent excuse not to look — the same failure I corrected in an inherited note earlier today, which had recorded four resolvers as unmeasurable for environment reasons that did not hold here. Hence the last rule: **record cautions as environment-scoped, not as properties of the code.** Say where you measured. ``` lint clean; fnxc-future-dates: none added (exit code checked before piping) ``` |

docs(solutions): record "silence is not success" (#3241)
## What A new `docs/solutions` note recording a failure that hit **three different tools in one session**, each time reading as a pass. Docs only. ## The three costumes | what happened | looked like | was | |---|---|---| | `git stash --keep-index` swept the new test file out of the tree | "45 passed" | the pre-existing count; the new test never ran | | a blinding script hit an unmapped role and `sys.exit(2)` **with no message**; `&&` skipped the check, `;` let the run proceed | "375/375 green under blinding" | nothing blinded — run was against unmodified source | | a gate piped to `tail -1`, printing a blank line | "gate ran, no complaints" | exit code 1; the FNXC stamp check had failed, and **CI caught it in #3238** | ## Why it deserves its own note **A passing run and a run that never happened produce the same evidence: no failure text.** Every other bug announces itself; this one is defined by the absence of an announcement. The instinct that catches ordinary bugs — *"nothing looks wrong"* — is precisely the instinct that certifies this one. It gets worse under automation, where output is piped and skimmed. `| tail -1`, `| grep "Tests"`, `>/dev/null 2>&1` all discard the part that would have said `No test files found` or `command not found`. ## The five rules, each paid for above 1. **Assert the exit code before any pipe.** A pipeline's status is the *last* stage's — `cmd | tail -1` reports `tail`'s success, never `cmd`'s. 2. **Confirm the run did the work.** "Test Files 1 passed" when you expected 16 is a finding, not a pass. 3. **A tool that can no-op must say what it did** — print the substitution and location, fail loudly where it cannot act. 4. **Verify the mutation, not the tool's promise** — `git diff --stat`, not the exit code. 5. **Break the guard on purpose once** and watch it fail. A guard never observed failing has not been shown to work — the standard this repo already applies to product ratchets, turned on your own verification. ## The uncomfortable part, kept in The third instance was a rule **I added to AGENTS.md myself in #3174**, broken for the second time. I ran the gate. I read `tail -1`. I moved on. Writing a rule down does not make you follow it. The only reason it was caught is that **CI read the output when I did not** — an argument for the gate existing, not for me having been careful. Cross-linked from the resolver-audit note, whose every wrong reading came from a run that never happened rather than from the blinding itself. That connection is the point: I spent this session auditing a program whose subject is defects hiding behind green results, and reproduced the same class three times in my own tooling. ``` lint clean; fnxc-future-dates: none added (exit code checked before piping this time) ``` <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Added workflow guidance explaining why silent or seemingly successful output does not confirm that a test, script, or validation gate ran. * Documented verification practices including checking exit codes, work counts, no-op detection, post-run changes, and intentional failure checks. * Added a case study highlighting how filtered output can conceal verification failures. * Added cross-references connecting resolver interpretation, test execution, and conversion coverage. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(solutions): complete the repo-wide resolver audit; correct a superseded note (#3236)
## What Completes the repo-wide resolver audit and **corrects a note of mine that had gone stale**. Docs only. Every `resolveProjectColumnsForRoles` call site in the repository has now been blinded individually. ## Final results | package | sites | outcome | |---|---|---| | `engine` | 10 files | scheduler, triage, evaluator uncovered → pinned; executor, restart-recovery, notification already covered; self-healing 21 pinned / 1 inert | | `core` | 14 | 9 covered, **5 uncovered → all 5 pinned** (#3225, #3227, #3233, #3234, #3235) | | `dashboard` | 4 | `register-task-workflow-routes.ts:1268` covered; `server.ts` ×3 flagged | | `cli` | 1 | flagged | ## The correction A note recorded `workflow-analytics.ts` and `team-analytics.ts` — 4 resolvers — as **unmeasurable**, because `pgDescribe` probes TCP and the `.pg` suites skip without it. The caution is real and stays: a skipped suite reads exactly like a passing one. But on an environment where those suites **do** run, all 4 were measured, and `team-analytics.ts` turned out to have a half-covered pair — `completeLanes` covered, **`activeLanes` not** — in a file named `team-analytics-renamed-lanes`. That is now pinned (#3227, merged). Left standing, the note converts a real finding into a **permanent excuse for not looking**. It now says: confirm the suite actually skips *here* before recording a site as unmeasurable for environment reasons. ## A fourth measurement failure mode — the opposite direction The three already recorded all produce false *uncovered*. This one produces false *covered*: **A COVERED verdict needs a baseline.** The dashboard sweep reported 5 failing files under the global blind. **4 of them fail on clean `main`** and have nothing to do with lanes — a docs-inventory test and a model-routes test among them. Read as-is, that is four resolvers falsely credited as covered. Only `register-task-workflow-routes.awaiting-planning.test.ts` passes clean and fails blinded, so it is the sole real detector. Second time today a baseline changed a conclusion (the first found a genuine red on main, #3229). ## Why 4 sites are flagged rather than pinned - **`server.ts:1922/1923/1938`** — inside the `/api/health/reliability` route closure. No route-level test exists, and the only way in is booting `createServer(store)` behind a mock-the-world shell, which the slow-test rule forbids. The alternative is a refactor to expose a seam — its own commit, since moving code and changing behaviour do not ride together. (A note already in this doc reached the same conclusion independently; this confirms it by measurement.) - **`cli/commands/task.ts:660`** — worth its own warning. Extracting a pure helper and testing it **would look like coverage and would not be**: blinding the resolver leaves such a test green, because the helper *receives* the lane set rather than resolving it. The uncovered thing is the resolve call, not the decision it feeds. Its sibling test file already records the same limit honestly for `boardColumnsForDisplay`. ## Reported, not fixed: 4 pre-existing red dashboard files on main `lazy-loaded-views-docs.test.ts` (AGENTS lazy-view inventory drifted — 24 actual vs 18 documented), `ResearchView.test.tsx`, `planning-browser-e2e.test.ts`, `register-model-routes-kimi-k3-supplemental.test.ts` — 7 failing tests, all in the non-blocking suite. I am not fixing them here: the lazy-views inventory is a curated list other workers are actively adding to, and rewriting it mid-flight would collide. Flagging so it is visible rather than silently absorbed into my blind's noise. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Updated workflow guidance to require baseline comparisons and verification that all relevant tests run. * Added safeguards for detecting ineffective changes and distinguishing pre-existing failures. * Expanded PostgreSQL audit documentation with measured coverage results, including uncovered resolver paths. * Recorded completed coverage sweeps across core, dashboard, and CLI areas, including pinned and non-pinnable sites. * Clarified limitations when testing extracted decision helpers instead of resolver calls. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(learnings): blinding measures the instrument you picked — rule 5, and where the measurement cannot be taken (#3222)
Extends `blind-the-resolver-to-find-uncovered-conversions.md` rather than forking a second doc on the same technique. ## Rule 5: blinding measures the instrument you picked, not the site A suite that never reaches the blinded site reports `0 failed` for the same reason a covered one does. The outputs are identical. This produced a **wrong answer twice in one sweep**, both times reading as a finding: | blinded | suite run | said | actually | |---|---|---|---| | `reads.ts` ×3 | `search-excludes-renamed-archive-lane.test.ts` | 3 uncovered | that file unit-tests `liveSearchPredicate` and never runs `reads.ts`; against `cold-storage-renamed-archive-lane.test.ts` one of the three is covered | | `server.ts` ×3 | `reliability-metrics.test.ts` | 3 uncovered | that file imports `../reliability-metrics`; nothing executes the route at all | The `reads.ts` case is the one to remember, because **the misleading suite was written for that exact conversion**. It proves the collaborator honours a resolved set — which says nothing about whether the caller passes one, and can never fail when the call site is blinded. That gap shipped as a real hole and was closed in #3220. Doc adds the cheap guard: make the blinded edit obviously fatal (`throw new Error("x")`) and re-run. Still green means the suite does not reach the site and the measurement is void. ## Where the measurement cannot be taken Per #3212's stance that recording *why* something cannot be pinned is a result, three groups are written down so nobody re-derives them: - **No TCP PostgreSQL** — `workflow-analytics.ts` / `team-analytics.ts` (4 resolvers) keep renamed-lane coverage in `.pg` suites. `pgDescribe` probes **TCP**; `pg_isready` succeeding on a **Unix socket** is not the same thing. I made exactly this mistake and reported PG as reachable one round before correcting it — mistaking the two turns 4 skipped suites into 4 false "uncovered" readings. - **No injectable seam** — `reads.ts`'s incremental-sync scan composes Drizzle conditions against `layer.db`. A test there asserts the query built, not the rows excluded: green, and blind to the bug. - **Logic inside a route closure** — `server.ts`'s three resolvers sit in the `/api/health/reliability` handler, which has no route-level test. The only harness in that package is a mock-the-world shell the slow-test rule forbids; the alternative is a refactor to expose a seam, which is its own commit. ## Census **Unchanged — `CONVERSION QUEUE EMPTY`, `AVAILABLE: 0`.** Documentation only. Gates verified green (`check-fnxc-future-dates`, `lifecycle-column-census --strict`). No changeset: internal docs, per AGENTS.md. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Added guidance for verifying the test instrument used during blinding. * Documented fatal-edit reachability checks. * Added troubleshooting guidance for situations where resolver coverage cannot be measured. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(solutions): record the blinding audit's own failure modes (#3223)
## What Extends `docs/solutions/workflow-learnings/blind-the-resolver-to-find-uncovered-conversions.md` with what this session's audit work paid for. Docs only — no code, no changeset (internal doc). ## The main addition: the audit's own failure modes **Every wrong reading this method has produced came from test *selection*, not from the blind.** Three in one session, each of which reads exactly like coverage: | what I ran | why it lied | |---|---| | `vitest run src/__tests__ -t "executor"` | `-t` filters test **names**, not files. Reported two `executor.ts` resolvers uncovered; **both are covered.** | | `blind3.py <file> <var>` with an unmapped role | exited non-zero **silently**; `&&` skipped the check and `;` let vitest run against **unmodified source**. Reported "375/375 green under blinding" with nothing blinded. | | `vitest run src/__tests__/notification` | missed `src/notification/__tests__/` — a nested `__tests__` the glob never reached. Reported covered code as uncovered. | The rule that follows: an UNCOVERED verdict is a claim about the whole tree and needs the whole tree's tests. Confirm the blind actually modified the file with `git diff --stat` — *not* the tool's exit code — and that the run included every file importing the module. I am documenting my own instrument failing the standard I have been applying to product guards all phase: *a guard that reports success without checking anything is worse than no guard.* Mine reported success without checking anything. It now echoes what it substituted and where, and fails loudly on an unmapped role or missing variable; I self-tested both directions before trusting any number in #3219 and #3221. ## Rule 5: the resolver must be able to answer differently in the harness `resolveProjectColumnsForRoles` returns **legacy ids and nothing else** when the store has no `listWorkflowDefinitions` — an intentional degrade so an unreadable workflow list cannot fail a sweep. A harness omitting it makes the resolved set and the literal set **equal by construction**, so the conversion is unobservable however good the assertion is. This is not a test bug. It is correct production behaviour that erases the difference the test is trying to measure — and it alone left both the `scheduler.ts` and `triage.ts` conversions unpinnable. ## A correction to my own earlier rule I had "seed-then-union sites hide defects" too broad. Such a site hides a defect **only while every lane you assert on is already in the seed**. On a renamed board the resolver is the sole contributor of the renamed lane, so the legacy blind is *not* a no-op — I predicted it would be and it failed. Also: expand roles to legacy ids **per role** from `LEGACY_COLUMN_IDS_BY_ROLE`; `intake` is `["todo","triage"]`, not `["triage"]`, and a stricter-than-real blind manufactures failures that read as coverage. ## Inventory, so the gap is legible **116 non-test call sites across 30 files** — core 17, engine 10, dashboard 2, cli 1. Audited so far, all in engine: `self-healing.ts` (64 mapped / 21 pinned / 1 inert by construction), `executor.ts` (2, covered), `scheduler.ts` (uncovered → pinned in #3219), `triage.ts` (uncovered → pinned in #3221), `restart-recovery-coordinator.ts` (covered), `notification-service.ts` (covered). **`packages/core`'s 17 files are entirely unaudited.** Stated as a gap rather than left implied, so nobody reads engine's coverage as a repo-wide clean bill. ## Flagged, not guessed - `evaluator.ts`'s archived read is uncovered — **no test file imports that module at all.** Left unpinned deliberately: it is a thin pass-through into `collectDeterministicSignals`, which is testable directly, and it affects eval signal quality rather than task lifecycle. Recorded in the doc rather than silently skipped. - I did not audit core; it is outside my package and I am not claiming anything about it either way. |

docs(learnings): blind the resolver to find uncovered conversions (#3214)
Sibling to #3203 (`a-falling-count-is-not-evidence`), which records that a metric moving is not proof the system moved. **This is the positive procedure**: how to find out whether a landed conversion is held by anything, and how to write a test that holds it. ## The measurement it is written from Of **64 resolved lane sets in `self-healing.ts`, 26 had no test that could distinguish them from the literal they replaced** — including three conversions I shipped that same day, and two halves of sweeps I had already recorded as covered. ## The procedure ``` - const reviewColumns = await resolveProjectColumnsForRoles(this.store, REVIEW_ROLES); + const reviewColumns = new Set<string>(["in-review"]); ``` Suite fails → covered. Suite passes → nothing in the tree can tell the conversion from the literal. One resolver, one 17-second run — cheaper than writing the conversion was. ## Why the census cannot answer this | instrument | question | |---|---| | census / lane-wiring ratchet | is this site written in the resolved vocabulary? | | blinding | does anything break if it stops being? | Neither substitutes for the other. A conversion merged with 204 green tests behind it and zero able to see it. ## Four rules, each paid for by a test that proved nothing 1. **Blind each resolver separately** — coverage is per-resolver, not per-sweep. Twice a sweep recorded as done was half-done, because control flow short-circuited before the second guard. 2. **The fixture must reach the branch the resolver gates.** A card in a renamed *wip* lane cannot exercise a *terminal* skip — it is caught by the wip∪review set first. 3. **Assert a path-specific side effect, never a return value.** `outcome === "reclaimed"` is reachable without the guarded branch. 4. **A store fake must honour `options.column`.** Flat and call-order stubs answer identically whatever column is requested — a fake that ignores its own filter cannot see a filter bug. ## The two shapes a ratchet cannot distinguish - **resolved gate, literal branch** — reads as *unwired*, was a live defect (#3208: a working agent lost its task link) - **passed-but-unread** — reads as *wired*, is dead code (#3212) A ratchet counting call sites scores the first as debt and the second as done. Both wrong. ## Why a doc and not more PR comments Everything above currently lives in ~20 PR descriptions. The next person to touch a lane conversion will not read those. `docs/solutions/` is where this project already keeps the things it learned the expensive way, and the frontmatter (`applies_when: deciding whether a lane conversion is actually protected by a test`) is what makes it findable. ## Verification `pnpm test:gate` 13 + 161 + 499 + 71 · lint · fnxc-dates (TZ=UTC) · `self-healing-docs` 2 passed. Docs only; no changeset, per the AGENTS.md rule for internal docs. |

docs(learnings): a falling count is not evidence that anything changed (#3203)
## The metric counterpart to #3200 #3200 (merged) records the **shapes** an inert conversion takes, and its grammatical tell is the portable one: *if a claim can be written without running anything, it has not been tested.* I offered this material there and said I would write it as a sibling rather than bloat that doc; it merged without it, so here it is. That doc is about **claims**. This one is about **numbers**. ## The tell **A count that falls is not evidence that anything changed.** Every gate here reports a number, and a number goes down three ways — work happened, the code got denser and the scan stopped matching, or someone lowered the allowance. Only the first is progress, and from inside the check all three look identical. Four times in one phase: | what moved | what actually happened | |---|---| | census 12 → 2 (`scheduler.ts`, #3051) | ten guards routed through `resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync`, which answers with the DEFAULT board under PostgreSQL. Byte-identical. Refuted in #3058 | | census 45 → 44 (`triage.ts`, #3114) | converted the exact arm #3108 flagged hours earlier. #3126 reverted it — three PRs for one line | | ratchet 20 → 15 | not a conversion: #3065 rewrote `a === x \|\| a === y` as `set.has(a)`. It printed *"total fell — re-record"*, which would have **permanently retired live guards** | | ratchet 22 → 9 | `scheduler.ts` reported **0** while 13 guards still fell back to the default board | Rows three and four are the dangerous shape: **the gate went quiet exactly when someone improved the code**, and the remedy it suggested was to lower the allowance. ## Also recorded - **One defect, four spellings** (#3062, #3068, #3079, #3181) — each fix correct about the shape in front of it and blind to a respelling. The lesson is not "write a better regex": enumerating consuming syntax is a losing game, and the durable form keys on the *source*. - **An instrument that runs nowhere and one that cannot fail are the same defect.** `check:inert-sync-lanes` was invoked by nothing for six PRs; `check:quarantine-ledger` ran nowhere *and* omitted `--strict`, so wiring it alone would have been theatre. Includes the mechanical audit that finds both. - **Base drift makes branch numbers incomparable** — three false alarms, one of them mine, from comparing against a remembered figure. The procedure that works is extracting both scripts and running them against one tree; that is how #3169 and #3181 were shown additive (22 = 13 + 7 + 2), which decided merge order and collapsed one into six lines inside the other. - **A pick-work list at 100% false positives**, because under-reporting deferrals is the direction that manufactures the #3108 → #3114 collision. ## Every claim is a measurement No mechanism here is derived from reading. Nine PRs cited, each the one that produced or refuted the finding — including the ones where I was wrong: a stale number I mistook for a regression, and two future-dated stamps of my own that the full ratchet set caught before they shipped (one earlier one it did not, and that broke `main`). ## Census before / after ``` before: COLUMN guards (the backlog): 12 after: COLUMN guards (the backlog): 12 ``` Docs only. ## Verification `test:gate` exit 0 · `fnxc-future-dates`, `lifecycle-columns`, `inert-sync-lanes`, `quarantine-ledger`, `inert-flag-seams`, `lane-wiring`, `sql-column-literals` — all exit 0 · `pnpm lint` clean. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Added guidance for interpreting workflow metrics and avoiding misleading conclusions from declining counts. * Documented detection blind spots, branch comparison issues, false positives, and validation procedures. * Included a practical checklist for reviewing metrics, quality gates, comparisons, and potential conversions. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(learnings): a blocker described four times, wrong twice — instrument before you file (#3200)
Records the method that moved a `triage.ts` site flagged unconvertible for four cycles. The method transfers; the three conversions do not. ## Four mechanisms, split by derivation rather than care | # | claimed mechanism | derived from | held? | |---|---|---|---| | 1 | merged intake/hold vocabularies | reading | no | | 2 | orphan arm scoped to `source === "selection"` | reading + one test run | partly | | 3 | provenance verifies by `ir.id`, which builtins lack | reading a **comment** | **no — filed as #3187, closed as wrong** | | 4 | two test harnesses cannot answer a selection query | instrumented isolation | **yes** | (3) is the expensive one. The text I quoted was **historical prose describing code that had been removed**, sitting directly above a paragraph saying exactly that. I read a rationale as an implementation, and it reached an issue other lanes could have acted on. ## The isolation took three runs ``` flag only, no conversion 8 passed -> the orphan arm is not the cause flag + conversion 5 failed -> the conversion is same, with a realistic mock store 8 passed -> the mock was the cause ``` Change one variable, let the suite answer. Available from cycle one. ## Why this is not just "test more" Every wrong mechanism was plausible, specific, and consistent with the code as read. **Plausibility is what made them dangerous** — each was good enough to write down, publish and act on. The failure mode is not sloppiness; it is that a careful reading of a large file *feels* like evidence. The tell is grammatical: **a claim that can be written without running anything is a hypothesis, not a measurement.** "This cannot be converted because X" versus "reverting X fails these 3 of 8 cases." ## The corollary, including its negative result Once the harness was the suspect, a class fell out: a test that stubs a reader **broken in production** proves the call site's logic while unable to see that production resolves nothing. Eight files stubbed `resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync` — one masking a live defect, four redundant (#3198), one legitimate. The doc also records that the obvious generalisation **fails**: `getTaskWorkflowSelection` is equally degraded under PostgreSQL but stubbing it masks nothing, because the resolver prefers the async twin and both answer the same. The distinguishing property is that the reader returns something *incorrect*, not merely *unused*. Written down so nobody repeats the 120-file sweep. Docs only; `check-fnxc-future-dates` exit 0. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Added a case study for diagnosing an unconvertible workflow site. * Documented controlled-run findings identifying the realistic mock store as the cause. * Clarified the difference between reading-based hypotheses and instrumented evidence. * Added guidance for distinguishing conversion, orphan-arm, and mock-store issues. * Recorded an audit of related test stubs, including redundant, masking, legitimate, and unresolved cases. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(learnings): a seventh inert shape — reusing an already-resolved local (my #3114 turned main red) (#3130)
Records the failure shape behind #3126, from the person who caused it. ## What is new about it The three inert conversions this program had catalogued — #3051, #3062, #3068 — all called `resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync` **at the call site**, where the sync resolver is visible in the diff. That is what the existing entries describe, and it is why they read as avoidable. Mine was not that. #3114 converted a `triage.ts` arm to `disposeLanes.wip`, reusing a value `resolvePlannerLanes` had produced a few lines above. It merged, and `main` went red: `triage.ts: 7 -> 8`. My reasoning at the time, verbatim from the PR body: > `resolvePlannerLanes` already called immediately above — no new resolution/await. That sentence checks the **cost** question and skips the **correctness** one. I confirmed I was not adding an `await` to a synchronous listener — the usual blocker, and a real one — and never asked what kind of resolver had produced the local I was reusing. **Reusing an already-resolved value reads as strictly safer than resolving.** No new work, no new await, no new failure mode. That intuition is correct about cost and silent about correctness, and the sync-ness sits one hop away inside the helper, where a call-site reviewer does not see it. So the check is not *"am I calling a sync resolver here?"* but **"what produced every lane value I am about to compare against, transitively?"** A local is not evidence; the resolver behind it is. #3122 widened the gate to follow wrappers for precisely this reason — and I walked through the door it was widened to cover, during the same phase I was adding it. ## Two corollaries recorded with it 1. **A gate that catches the defect but does not block is a report.** `check-inert-sync-lanes` fired correctly and the PR merged anyway, because it is not in the blocking set. #3127 fixes that, and I would prioritise it over any individual conversion — this is the second time this phase a correct non-blocking signal was ignored. 2. **`triage.ts`'s remaining 7 are not backlog.** The revert takes it to 7, and those seven are the same shape: they need the emitter-side / async-threading work tracked in #3082, not another conversion pass. `--claims` (#3124) now marks sync-resolver files as inert-risk and keeps them out of the start-here list for exactly this reason. ## Scope Docs only — one section appended to the existing learnings file, placed with the other numbered shapes and before "The rule that produced every fix above". No code, no gate, no changeset (internal docs). The revert itself is #3126, which I confirmed on a clean detached `origin/main` checkout rather than on a branch; I did not open a competing fix.

docs(workflow-learnings): a deferral's stated blocker is a claim, and it decays like a measurement (#3026)
Two pieces of work were filed rather than fixed in one session, each with a specific technical reason. **Both reasons were wrong**, and in both cases the real obstacle was smaller than the stated one. | filed rationale | reality | |---|---| | "the plugin has no scaffolding for faking its stores" (#3020) | `_harness.ts` builds a real `PluginContext` over a live PostgreSQL layer; the gap was **two missing readers on a stub** — fixed in #3022 | | "supplying this needs a published-API change" (#3003) | the type is dashboard-internal, `@fusion/plugin-sdk` is `private: true`; the actual obstacle is stale type declarations between two in-repo packages | The first one matters most: the filed issue was a **pipeline that stalls forever** on a renamed board. The cost of that excuse would have been a real stall sitting open behind a plausible-sounding note. ## The shape Both times the blocker was asserted **from the shape of the problem** rather than tested. *"This needs infrastructure that doesn't exist"* and *"this crosses a published boundary"* are each checkable in about five minutes, and neither was checked before I wrote a paragraph explaining why the work couldn't proceed. ## Why it's worth writing down Filing is often right — someone else owns the contract, the fix needs a decision, the data genuinely isn't there. What makes it wrong is filing on an **untested** blocker, because a filed issue with a confident rationale is the one thing nobody re-derives. It reads as settled. That's the same mechanism as a stale "do not re-probe" note (which this document already records, and which I had to correct in #3018), one level up: there a *measurement* went stale, here a *decision* did. ## The rule **Before writing the blocker down, spend five minutes trying to hit it.** If it's real you'll hit it immediately and can describe it precisely — which makes the issue more useful. If it isn't, you have the fix instead of the issue. Docs only. No code, no baselines. Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(workflow-learnings): the "named legacy-id collections are clean" entry was wrong (#3018)
It hid two real defects — and it explicitly told the next reader not to re-probe them. ## What the entry did Counted **declarations** (48, then 49) and concluded the population was benign because each one is a fallback vocabulary, a builtin column list, or an already-converted seam. All true of the declarations. **The declaration isn't where the defect lives.** ## Measure the use, not the declaration A collection used as a **membership gate against a column**. Nine exist, and two were live user-visible defects sitting inside a population this doc had marked clean: | site | defect | |---|---| | `TIME_INDICATOR_COLUMNS.has(task.column)` — `TaskCard` | elapsed-time indicator never rendered on a renamed board (#3014) | | `PLANNER_ACTIVITY_COLUMN_IDS.has(task.column)` — `useTasks` | planning border and pulsing badge never appeared (#3017) | The other seven are genuinely fine, and the reasons are kept because they're the shapes worth recognising: the no-flags fallback *inside* a role helper, a seam that seeds the legacy pair then unions resolved lanes, a marked `DELIBERATE-LITERAL` fallback chain, and a plugin with no trait source at all. ## The tell One question separates the two groups: **does a flags path exist in this file at all?** Both defects had none — the gate was the only decision, with nothing to degrade from. Every benign case had a resolved path sitting right next to the literal. ## Why this is worth its own PR A "do not re-probe" note that is wrong is **worse than no note**: it converts one person's incomplete measurement into everybody's blind spot. That's the same failure this document already records for `sortTasksForDisplayColumn`, one level up — there an annotation told readers to skip a *row*, here it told them to skip a *population*. I wrote the original entry, and I'd read past it twice myself before #3014 forced the re-measurement. Docs only. No code, no baselines.

docs(workflow-learnings): correct the "bounded" heuristic — a clock-shaped dep is not a fast one (#3012)
The severity heuristic I wrote in #2998 sorted dependencies **by name**, and #3007 is the counterexample. ## What I got wrong I classified `lifecycleDates` as *bounded* because its dep list contains `lifecycleNowMs`, and deferred it in #3001 with the line *"any wrong answer there survives only until the next update."* That value is driven by a **local-midnight boundary timer** — one tick per card per day. So a finished card shows no completion date for up to **twenty-four hours**. @gsxdsm found it after I'd written it off. `nowMs`, `Ticker` and `lastFetchTimeMs` span a live 30-second ticker, a per-fetch stamp, and a daily boundary. Sorting them by name puts a day-long defect in the same bucket as a 30-second one. ## The sharper half A card in a **completion lane doesn't subscribe to the shared live ticker at all** — that's exactly what the ticker's eligibility check is for, and what #2996 fixed. So the "fast" dependency that would have rescued this population is the one thing that population never receives. The corrected question is: **which dependencies refresh *for this population*** — not which ones appear in the list. Two of my three severity calls in that sweep leaned on a dep that the affected cards structurally never get. ## Why this is worth a PR rather than a quiet edit The doc is what the next person triages against. #3001 explicitly told them the four "bounded" sites were deprioritised **by design** — on reasoning that was wrong for at least one of them. Leaving that in place means someone defers a day-long defect on my say-so. Docs only. No code, no baselines. Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(workflow-learnings): a sixth shape — the resolved value arrives after a memo has answered (#2998)
## The shape Three defects this session, all the same, none visible to any instrument here: A lane value resolved **asynchronously** (the board fetches workflow traits after first paint) is read inside a `useMemo`/`useCallback` whose dependency list omits it. The first computation runs with the flags `undefined`, the role helpers correctly fall back to legacy ids, and on a **renamed** board that answer is wrong. When the flags arrive nothing in the dep list changed, so the memo never recomputes. | defect | severity | |---|---| | blocker fan-out trait index (#2993) | permanent — empty index for the mount | | card live elapsed-time indicator (#2996) | permanent — never subscribes | | near-duplicate chip (#2997) | bounded — self-heals on the next task refresh | A legacy board hides all three: there the fallback already answers correctly on the first paint, so the stale list costs nothing. **Every instance is renamed-board-only**, which is why they accumulated — and this repo has no `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` rule, so the class is invisible to lint. ## Two properties decide severity, both readable off the dep list 1. **Does any dependency refresh quickly?** `allTasks`, a live clock, a task identity — any of them rebuilds the closure on the next update, making the wrong answer a bounded window. The chip keys on `allTasks` and recovers; the indicator keys on `task.column`, which never changes, so it never does. 2. **Is the value covered transitively?** A dependency that itself lists the flags gets a new identity when they arrive, and that propagates. ## A gate was built and rejected — the part worth writing down The scanner reports **19 sites; two were real.** Property 2 is why: transitive coverage is invisible to any purely syntactic check and would need a real dependency graph. `TaskCard`'s context-menu memo omits all three role flags and is **nonetheless correct** — it depends on `taskActionMenuModel.actions`, and that model lists `taskColumnFlags`, so the whole chain recomputes. I checked that before filing it, which is the only reason this PR isn't a bug report about missing Archive/Revert menu entries. Freezing 19 would have baselined mostly noise and trained everyone to skip the report — the exact failure this document already records for `sortTasksForDisplayColumn`, where an annotation saying "ignore these" hid a real defect for days. **A good investigative tool is not automatically a good ratchet**, and the next person deserves to know the turn was considered rather than missed. The triage that does work is cheap: run the scan, then ask the two questions above. Nine of nineteen survive question 1; hand-checking those is an afternoon, not a project.

docs(workflow-learnings): probe harnesses lie more often than the gates do (#2983)
## What Probing four gates with unimagined shapes this session (#2979, #2980, #2981) produced **two rounds of silently invalid results** — both from the harness rather than the instrument, and both agreeing with what I expected, which is why neither was noticed on the spot. 1. **`node gate.mjs | tail` then `echo $?` reads *tail's* exit status.** Every probe reported "caught". The gate was in fact failing on `main` for an unrelated reason, so the runs proved nothing. That fictional evidence nearly shipped a double-counting change to the SQL gate. 2. **A gate that lists files with `git ls-files` cannot see an untracked probe file.** Six census probes reported "missed" — including the shape the census is explicitly built for, which was the tell. Filesystem-walking gates (`check-sql-column-literals`, `check-inert-flag-seams`) see untracked files; the census does not. The rule that catches both in one step, now written down: > **A probe run needs its own control.** Include one shape the instrument is known to catch and one it must not flag. If the known-good shape doesn't come back caught, stop — you're measuring your harness. Worth stating plainly because the two failure modes have opposite costs: a probe that wrongly reports *caught* retires a real hole; one that wrongly reports *missed* sends you rewriting an instrument that was already correct. ## Two measured negative results, recorded so nobody re-runs them Added to the existing "Surfaces that were checked and are CLEAN" section: | shape | population | |---|---| | `switch (task.column)` with legacy `case` labels | **0 sites** | | a legacy id hoisted into a single const, then compared | **1 site — and it is correct code** | The one site is `self-healing.ts:2992`, which seeds `let holdColumn = "todo"` as its documented legacy floor and then overwrites it from `resolveLifecycleColumns(...).hold`. The census is right not to flag it; a naive version of this probe reports it as a defect. The second shape was worth measuring precisely because **the same shape had a real population in SQL** — it's what #2980 fixed. It did not transfer. Population is a property of how people write that particular kind of code, so each instrument has to be measured on its own rather than by analogy to a sibling that just turned something up. ## Why this is docs and not a gate change The census's comparison-only scope is adequate for this codebase: every blind shape I could construct has an effectively empty real population. Demanding new detection would have forced a large baseline change across the program's central instrument for **zero defects** — the same mistake as filing "48 uncounted sites" that the existing section already warns about. Docs only. No code, no baselines touched. All five gates green. Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

fix(dashboard): stop over-aggressive component unmounts (keep-alive for planning, terminals, popups) (#2420)
Implements
docs/plans/2026-07-22-001-fix-dashboard-remount-churn-plan.md: every
confirmed source of unnecessary unmount/remount churn in the dashboard,
plus a keep-alive layer for conversation- and terminal-bearing surfaces.
## What changed
**Keying / component identity (U1–U3)**
- Streaming chat segment key no longer embeds `entries.length` — an
expanded thinking block stays expanded while entries stream into it
(R1).
- Dock task list keys `TaskCard` rows by `task.id` (occurrence suffix
only for the duplicate-id anomaly) instead of `id-index` — no remount on
reorder/filter/status change (R2).
- `ProviderStatusBadge` / `GitHubStatusBadge` hoisted out of
ModelOnboardingModal's render body (R3); MCP server rows key by
`server.name` alone (R4).
**Keep-alive layer (U4–U6)**
- New shared `KeepAliveView` wrapper: visible = in-flow flex child;
hidden = out-of-flow `position:absolute; inset:0` with
`visibility:hidden; pointer-events:none` + `aria-hidden` (never
`display:none`, so xterm geometry never collapses).
- Planning Mode renders as a kept-alive sibling of the MainContent
switch after first open (per-project latch mirroring Quick Chat). While
hidden, the session-list SSE, recovery poll, and elapsed ticker suspend
via a new `active` prop; reveal re-subscribes and refreshes the sessions
list once. Payload-carrying entry points (initial-plan handoff, resume)
and project switches remount via a new
`modalManager.planningEntryGeneration` key, preserving pre-keep-alive
fresh-open semantics. `recordResumeEvent` instrumentation records
`remount` on first activation and `route-active` on reveal.
- Task-detail Terminal / Worktree-terminal / Planner-chat tabs stay
mounted-but-hidden after first open (per-task latches; task switch/close
still disposes fully). `SessionTerminal` gains `active`: reveal refits +
forces a font remeasure, and if the WS died while hidden it re-runs the
full attach lifecycle (dead-socket recovery).
- Popped-out task windows hide via FloatingWindow `hidden` instead of
leaving the render array; `TaskDetailContent` gains `active` so hidden
popups close their SSE/EventSource channels while the terminal WS stays
open. `visiblePoppedOutTaskEntries` remains the Escape-shortcut
consumer.
**Planning Mode internal-transition audit (U7)**
- Audit findings: session-list mode and mobile list/detail flips are
CSS-class transitions over one always-mounted detail pane (no
state-discarding unmounts); re-selecting the active session is an
early-return visibility restore; session switching intentionally reloads
from the session row (stream re-attach for generating sessions);
remaining index keys are on stateless lists. No product-code defects
found; regression tests now lock the always-mounted invariant on desktop
+ mobile.
**Cheap-view state (U8)**
- CommandCenter (active sub-tab + date range) and DevServerView
(selected script/task + typed-but-unsent command) persist per project
via `modalPersistence` and restore after their (intentional) unmount
round-trips. Also fixed the candidate auto-fill effect clobbering a
customized non-empty command.
## Symptom Verification
- **Original symptom:** streaming thinking blocks collapsed mid-stream;
terminals reconnected and lost scroll/input on tab flips; Planning Mode
lost in-flight interviews on navigation; popped-out windows vanished
off-view; dock cards remounted on reorder.
- **Exact reproduction:** (1) expand a thinking block during a stream;
(2) run a command in the Terminal tab, flip to Plan and back; (3) start
a planning interview, navigate Board and back; (4) pop out a task with
board/list-only scoping and switch views; (5) change a dock task's
status.
- **Assertion it is gone:** component-identity/instrumentation tests in
TaskChatTab, SessionTerminal, TaskDetailModal
(worktree/planner-chat/tabs), PlanningModeModal keep-alive +
internal-transitions, App keep-alive round-trip, and
App.taskPopupViewGating assert no remount and preserved state for each
repro, across desktop and mobile breakpoints.
## Verification
- File-scoped vitest: 23 files / 1091 tests green (all touched suites
plus FloatingWindow, TerminalModal, TaskPlannerChatTab,
lazy-loaded-views guard, App suites).
- `pnpm verify:fast`: PASS (13 steps — scoped typecheck/build, CLI
build, boot smoke).
- `pnpm check:changesets`: passes; changeset
`fix-dashboard-remount-churn` (`@runfusion/fusion` patch, labeled
format).

feat(missions): per-mission taskPrefix override for triaged task ids (#2347)
## Summary Maintainer re-land of [#2334](https://github.com/Runfusion/Fusion/pull/2334) (fork `flexi767:feat/per-mission-task-prefix`) after resolving merge conflicts with current `main`. Fork push was unavailable despite `maintainerCanModify`, so this branch carries the conflict resolution. ### Feature - Optional per-mission `taskPrefix` for triaged task ids (inherits project prefix when unset) - Dashboard MissionManager + routes + store/triage plumbing - Postgres migration for `project.missions.task_prefix` ### Conflict resolution - Main claimed migration **0026** (bigint counters) and **0027** (workflow IR pin) - Mission task-prefix migration renumbered **0026 → 0028** - Baseline `0000_initial.sql` includes `task_prefix` on missions - `legacy.ts` keeps code-org re-exports; `missions.ts` carries `taskPrefix` on create/update types ## Test plan - [ ] CI green (lint/typecheck/build/gate) - [ ] Create mission with custom prefix; triage feature → task ids use that prefix - [ ] Clear mission prefix via PATCH null; new tasks inherit project prefix Closes / supersedes #2334 once this lands (or re-point the fork PR). <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Missions can now set an optional per-mission task ID prefix (overriding the project default). * Added task prefix support to mission create/edit UI and dashboard APIs, including normalized uppercase values and validation. * **Bug Fixes** * Improved commit hook generation for custom prefixes and special characters, with safer shell handling to prevent unsafe interpretation. * **Chores** * Added PostgreSQL migration and schema-applier support to persist and propagate mission task prefixes, including upgrade/backfill coverage. * **Tests** * Added backend and UI/API test coverage for task-prefix creation, clearing, and ID minting behavior. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> |

batch-sql-ratchet: the census / gate-ratchet family — collection branch, fold here (#2941)

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.

batch(docs): fold the three workflow-learnings / annotation PRs into one (#2942)
## Family batch — replaces #2926, #2892, #2887 Per the consolidation directive: the u9/e2e **docs family**, folded into one branch and one CI run. Three PRs, five commits, **five files, comment and markdown only**. | folded PR | commits | |---|---| | #2892 `docs/union-vs-per-task` | the project union and the per-task answer are not ranked; date correction | | #2926 `docs/date-my-measured-claims` | date the measured claims (one was wrong); date the grep-vs-AST measurement in the SQL gate header | | #2887 `docs/archived-state-literals` | mark the three archived STATE literals as deliberate | Cherry-picked in original order with authorship preserved; all five applied clean, no conflicts. ## Scope is provably comment-only ``` docs/solutions/workflow-learnings/lifecycle-conversions-that-score-as-wins.md docs/solutions/workflow-learnings/project-union-versus-per-task-lanes.md packages/core/src/task-store/async-maintenance.ts ← FNXC DELIBERATE-LITERAL annotation packages/core/src/task-store/workflow-definitions.ts ← FNXC DELIBERATE-LITERAL annotation scripts/check-sql-column-literals.mjs ← header prose only ``` Every added line in `packages/` and `scripts/` is inside a comment — checked by filtering the diff for declarations, conditionals and returns, which returns nothing. The two core files gain `DELIBERATE-LITERAL` markers explaining that `'archived'` is a **state** marker there, not a lane: the sweep collects rows Fusion itself archived or soft-deleted, so widening to the resolved archived set would pull live cards into a cleanup pass. ## Verification (scoped, per the directive — not the full suite) - `pnpm lint` — clean - `check-sql-column-literals` — exit 0 (the file it annotates) - `check:lifecycle-columns` — exit 0 (the markers it adds are census-visible) - `sync-workflow-ir-callsite-allowlist.test.ts` — 3/3 ## A correction worth recording Mid-fold I saw a changeset, `self-healing.ts` and a test file in `git diff origin/main..HEAD` and nearly reported the batch as impure. They were **main's own commits** — `origin/main` advanced between branch creation and the diff, so the comparison was against a stale base. Rebasing onto current `main` reduced it to the five files above. Worth flagging for anyone else folding a family today: with `main` moving this fast, diff the branch **after** rebasing or the file list will lie to you. ## Closing the originals #2926, #2892 and #2887 are superseded by this and are being closed. I hold no PRs of my own in this family — all mine merged — so this fold is on behalf of the family rather than a rollup of my own work. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(workflow-learnings): two lane-literal classes no tool of ours can see (#2877)
Docs only. Two findings from this unit that cost real time to derive and would otherwise be re-derived by whoever reaches these files next. ## 1. `=== "archived"` is usually a SENTINEL `packages/core/src/task-store/async-comments-attachments.ts` carries **9** census guards — the second-largest single-file count outside `self-healing.ts`. Reading all nine: **exactly one** is a board-column comparison. The other eight compare against a value `getLiveTaskColumn` *manufactures*: ```ts if (row.column === "archived" || row.deletedAt != null) return "archived"; // ← fabricated return row.column; ``` Converting those eight to `isArchivedColumnRole` would keep passing on the built-in board and start **failing** on a renamed one — a soft-deleted parent's documents would become readable. **The conversion makes the renamed board worse**, which is the opposite of what the census count implies. The rule that separates them: look at where the compared value *came from*, not at its type. From `task.column` or a DB field → a board lane. From a function that *returns* `"archived"` as a documented outcome → a sentinel. Consequence worth stating plainly: **a file's census count is an upper bound on convertible sites, not a work estimate.** ## 2. Lane literals inside raw `sql` are in no total at all The Reliability panel had three inputs. Two were call arguments and converted routinely (#2861). The third encoded its lanes in a `sql` fragment: ```sql metadata->>'to' = 'in-review' OR (metadata->>'from' = 'in-review' AND metadata->>'to' = 'done') ``` The census scans `===`/`!==` comparisons; the unwired-lane-parameter guard scans declarations. **Neither can see a string inside a `sql` template**, so this class is not in the backlog number — a second, independent reason the total is a floor. Second known instance after the archived gate in PR #2724, which makes it a pattern rather than an accident. Fixed in #2875, and the doc says so rather than leaving it described as outstanding — a learnings doc that reports a fixed defect as open sends the next reader to a dead end. `scripts/check-sql-column-literals.mjs` (#2841) is the detector for the class and freezes the surface at 30 sites; the two are complementary. ## 3. Sibling files The GitLab importer's `column: "triage"` was fixed in #2843. The Linear importer — written from the same template, with **two tests pinning the bug** — still had it, and was found only by re-grepping an area I had already declared clean (#2860). When a defect is found in a file that has a sibling, the sibling is the next place to look, and no tool will tell you that. ## Verification `pnpm lint` clean. No source change. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs: correct every number in the self-healing sweep doc — all of mine were wrong, three different ways (#2865)
CodeRabbit flagged #2838's doc as saying four sweeps converted when the PR converted more. It merged before I could answer, so this is the fix-forward — and re-measuring found the count itself was wrong, along with **every intermediate number I published**. ## Measured, comments stripped Literal column queries in `self-healing.ts`: **47 before, 36 now.** Eight sweeps converted, all eight named in the doc. ## Three distinct errors, each recorded because the next worker re-runs this 1. **The per-commit "N remaining" counts (44, 43, 42, 41, 40) were arithmetic on an assumed starting point.** I decremented a number instead of measuring one — in a program whose central discipline is that measurement beats assumption, in commit messages that also said "measured". 2. **A raw `grep -c` counts explanatory comments that quote the old query form** — including the ones these conversions *add*. So converting a sweep could leave the count unchanged, which is exactly what it appeared to do for six of the eight. 3. **The obvious comment filter (`startsWith("//") || startsWith("*")`) misses block-comment lines beginning with ordinary prose**, which is most of them here. That is why my first correction said 45 and was still wrong. The doc now carries the strip-comments-then-count command, so the number is **reproducible rather than quoted**. ## Also corrected The activation-risk list is **2 sweeps, not 4** — `finalizeNoOpReviewTasks` and `recoverCompletionHandoffLimbo` were converted in the same PR and are no longer risky. A stale list naming specific sweeps and line numbers is worse than a stale count: it reads as a work queue, and I nearly "fixed" a guard I had already wired from exactly that kind of row. ## Verification `pnpm lint`, `check:changesets`, census `--strict` — clean. Docs-only; no code change. |

docs(workflow-learnings): mutation testing has one blind spot — your own imagination (#2858)
The most transferable thing this lane produced, and it is a correction to advice I wrote earlier in the same document. ## The gap Every other section here says *"watch the guard go red before you trust it."* That rule is necessary and **not sufficient**, and the way it fails cost the most. Three instruments were written during this program. Each was mutation-tested in both directions before shipping. Each was green. Reviewers then found, in those same instruments: - a **file-level pre-filter** that skipped whole files, so a forbidden site added to a file with no other SQL was invisible; - an **anchored pattern** that missed qualified and compound fragments (`t."column" = 'done'`); - a scan over **SOURCE text**, where a double-quoted TS string still spells `\"column\"` with the backslashes in it; - an operator list of `= != <>` that never considered **`IN (...)`**; - and worst, a template scan that joined only the **static spans** — so a Drizzle query, which puts the COLUMN in the interpolation hole and the legacy id in the static text, matched nothing. **That gate was blind on the exact files it was built to freeze.** Enabling that one shape took the population from 14 to 31 and revealed five previously invisible files. ## Why the mutation tests could not catch any of them All five are **false negatives**, and the reason is structural rather than sloppy: > A mutation you write is a mutation you already imagined, so it lands inside the space your scanner understands. Reintroducing a defect the checker was designed around proves the checker still handles that defect. It says nothing about shapes you never modelled. ## What does find them 1. **Run the instrument against the code it was written for and read the hits by hand.** The Drizzle blindness was obvious the moment someone asked *"why is the merge-queue query — the reason this exists — not in the output?"* 2. **Prefer one unanchored pattern over a fast pre-filter plus a precise one.** Every false negative above came from two patterns disagreeing about whether to run the real check at all. A pre-filter is a second, weaker specification of the thing you are testing. 3. **Treat a guard's own count as a claim to verify, not a result.** "14 sites" read as coverage for days; it was the subset one scanner happened to model. A false positive is loud and gets fixed. **A false negative prints a baseline and reads as coverage.** Docs only — no changeset. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

self-healing: six recovery sweeps that never ran on a renamed board — and the guards widening their queries activates (#2838)
**Six self-healing sweeps did not run at all on a renamed board. Each is a recovery path — the thing that unsticks a card when something has already gone wrong.** #2800 measured this class and could not fix it: a read happens *before* any task is in hand, so there is nothing to resolve a per-task lane from. `resolveProjectColumnsForRoles` (landed separately) is the seam that was missing. ## What was silently dead | sweep | what stayed broken on a renamed board | | --- | --- | | `reconcileDoneTaskIntegrity` | a landed card kept **no commit sha**, forever | | `recoverAlreadyMergedReviewTasks` | a card whose merge **succeeded** stayed parked with `status: "failed"` | | `recoverStuckMergeDeadlocks` | **doubly blind** — no candidates *and* no dependents | | `recoverInterruptedMergingTasks` | a task interrupted mid-merge sat in `merging` indefinitely | | `recoverMergeableReviewTasks` | a card ready to merge was never re-enqueued | | `recoverReviewTasksWithFailedPreMergeSteps` | a card parked on a failed review step was never revived | The census scored the `task.column === "..."` re-assertion *inside* each loop, never the query above it. Converting those comparisons would have dropped six counts and changed nothing — the loop bodies were already unreachable. ## The conversion shape — five parts, three of which review taught me Documented in `self-healing-sweeps-are-blind-on-a-renamed-board.md`, because the second sweep **drifted from the first**: I wrote it from the pre-review version and reproduced a flaw already fixed one commit earlier. 1. **Read** — project union, query each column, dedupe by id. Legacy ids unioned so a board mid-rename is not skipped. 2. **Verdict** — per card against **its own** workflow. Widening the read and widening the verdict are different decisions: *a missed row is invisible, a wrong row is a write.* Using the project union as a per-card test claims a card because some **other** board calls its column that role. 3. **Provenance** — the resolver **substitutes** the built-in IR rather than failing, so `length > 0` reads as "this card answered" when nobody did. It does not change the verdict (measured: identical) — it makes the unrepaired card **reportable**. 4. **The log strings** — widening a query invalidates every message naming the old literal. One logged `"stale merging task(s) in in-review"` after its read covered several lanes. 5. **The guards the query ACTIVATES.** ## Part 5 is the one that bites A guard downstream of a literal query is **unreachable** on a renamed board — and unreachable is indistinguishable from correct. That is why these sit unwired indefinitely. `recoverReviewTasksWithFailedPreMergeSteps` filters on `blocker !== "task has failed pre-merge workflow steps"` — an **exact string match**. Unwired, the blocker returns `"task is in 'checking', must be in 'in-review'"`, so widening the query alone would have made the sweep **find every card and reject every card**. Measured: **6 sweeps hold both a literal query and an unwired lane guard**; 30 hold a literal query with no such guard. All six are named in the doc. **One of the six was my own already-converted sweep.** I widened `recoverAlreadyMergedReviewTasks` two commits before noticing its `getTaskHardMergeBlocker` was unwired — so for two commits it found renamed-board cards and declined them. The scan must run **before** widening; I did it after, and only caught it because the next sweep forced the question. `getTaskHardMergeBlocker` was the blind spot for four of the six: a wrapper, no lane parameter at all, every caller behind a literal query. ## Corrections to my own work, kept visible - The project union used as a **per-card verdict** — the flat-set mistake `project-lane-vocabulary.ts` warns about in its own header, which I quoted while writing it. - A **provenance fix that was a no-op**: measured identical verdicts in every state, revert passed its own new test, so it was thrown away rather than shipped with a comment claiming otherwise. - The second sweep **reproducing the first's pre-fix shape**. - Three assertions that were **vacuous until the revert exposed them** — including one where the write needed a real git repo, so `commitSha` could not distinguish accepted from rejected. ## Verification - `pnpm test:gate` — 161 + 487 + 13 + 71 - `self-healing.test.ts` 412, query-blindness suite 12 - `tsc` on core and engine; `pnpm lint`; `check:changesets`; census `--strict` — all clean, each run explicitly - Every conversion revert-measured, **each direction independently** where a sweep has two (read and guard) ## Scope **42 queries remain**, 5 of the 6 activation-risk sweeps among them. Each is per-sweep work — its own filter semantics, its own downstream guards, its own log strings — so they land one at a time with the pattern proven, never swept. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit - **Bug Fixes** - Self-healing workflows now work correctly on boards with renamed lifecycle columns. - Improved recovery for completed, in-review, interrupted, stalled, and failed-merge tasks. - Prevented tasks from being incorrectly classified using another workflow’s columns. - Added warnings when a task’s workflow lanes cannot be resolved. - **Documentation** - Expanded guidance on renamed-board recovery behavior and related diagnostic limitations. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the unwired-seam audit: 9 defects the census cannot see, incl. a reviewed card that cannot merge (#2820)
**Nine operator-visible defects in a class the census cannot see, plus
the audit method that found them.**
The census scans for lifecycle-column **comparisons**. This PR is about
guards that have no literal to find: a helper takes an optional
*resolved* lane set, its own test passes it, the census entry is gone —
and the callers pass nothing. **A resolved seam nobody wired is
indistinguishable from no seam at all.**
## What was broken
| defect | operator sees |
| --- | --- |
| `getTaskMergeBlocker` unwired in `mergeTaskImpl` | `Cannot merge FN-1:
task is in 'checking', must be in 'in-review'` — **a reviewed card
cannot merge** |
| …and in the completion move | `Cannot move FN-1 to done: …` — **and
cannot complete** |
| `isParkedTaskColumn` unwired ×2 (`agent-heartbeat`) | a durable agent
keeps claiming a parked card; **Health Check renders it RUNNING** |
| `resolveLinkSyncColumnRoles` first-per-role | link hygiene skips a
**second hold lane** entirely |
| `executor` active-task predicate first-per-role | a card in a **second
wip lane reads as INACTIVE**; its prompt file becomes reclaimable |
| `isPlanningContinuationTaskDispatchable` partially threaded | a board
declaring `done` as *non-terminal* stalls its cards — **stalled by a
lane name** |
| `default-workflow-hooks:72`, `executor:2404` | resolved gate admits
the move, unresolved blocker refuses it |
## The recurring shape, which is sharper than "a caller forgot an
argument"
Four sites resolve the lane and then re-ask with the literal, **a few
lines apart in the same function**:
- `task-artifacts-ops` resolves `completeColumn`, then asks the blocker
with the literal.
- `default-workflow-hooks:72` gates on `lifecycleColumns?.review`, then
the literal.
- `executor:2404` compares `resolveResumeLanes(…).review`, then the
literal.
- `resolvePlanningContinuationCandidate` applies the caller's terminal
set, then delegates without it.
**Grep for the helper, not the literal.** The literal is one function
away, correctly annotated as a fallback — which is exactly why the
census is blind to all of it.
## The arity trap, named and measured (six occurrences, one caught by
review here)
`resolveLifecycleColumns` answers *"which column is **the** hold
lane?"*. A `.includes()`/`.has()` test asks *"is this **any** hold
lane?"*. Nothing distinguishes them — same types, no literal.
**A default-vs-renamed differential cannot catch it**, because the
default board declares one column per role and therefore cannot express
the failing shape. It needs a *structurally* different fixture. That is
a sharper rule than "test both vocabularies", and it would have caught
all six.
Scanned: 12 candidate sites. **4 fixed · 3 blocked (2 on the inert sync
IR reader; `triage:833` also query-shaped) · 1 needs a hook-contract
change · 3 not defects (a returned tuple; an ordering-sensitive
precedence list) · 1 false positive of my own scan.**
A sweep over all twelve would have broken the ordering-sensitive pair,
delivered nothing at the sync-blocked ones, and "fixed" a site that was
already correct.
## Two traps in fixing this class — I hit both here
1. **The legacy id is a FALLBACK, not a member.** Pre-seeding
`"in-review"` admits a board that *declares* `in-review` as its WIP
column — a card mid-implementation merges prematurely. A real resolved
answer must **replace** the default. (Caught by review; it is the same
unscoped-legacy-acceptance the glasses plugin's review caught earlier,
which I had read and reintroduced.)
2. **Two guards, one assertion.** `toContain("must be in")` passed with
`mergeTaskImpl` reverted, because the *completion* guard caught the card
instead. The assertion now names the site (`Cannot merge` vs `Cannot
move … to done`) so the two fail independently.
## Corrections I made to my own work, recorded rather than quietly fixed
- My first PG test was **vacuous three ways**:
`saveWorkflowDefinition?.()`/`setTaskWorkflowSelection?.()` do not exist
(the `?.` swallowed both, so the task kept the builtin workflow),
`updateTask({column})` does not move a card, and a two-node IR made
every setup move illegal. Premise is now **asserted**, not assumed.
- My doc claimed the audit was complete. It enumerated **helpers**, not
every **caller** — `getTaskMergeBlocker` alone has 13 call sites.
Corrected in place, with the still-unwired ones listed by file and line
and a note to distrust any "audit complete" claim including mine.
- A severity correction to another worker's E2E:
`selectActionablePlanningContinuations` has **no production caller**, so
its stated consequence is latent, not live.
## Verification
- `pnpm test:gate` — 161 + 487 + 13 + 71
- `tsc` on core and engine; `pnpm lint`; `check:changesets`; census
`--strict` — all clean, each run explicitly
- Every fix revert-measured; each has a non-vacuous companion. The
two-hold-lane and repurposed-`in-review` cases exist because the default
board cannot express those shapes.
## Deliberately not done, with reasons in
`resolved-seams-nobody-wired.md`
`isTaskReadyForMerge` (dead in production — wiring it would be the
anti-pattern itself); `getTaskHardMergeBlocker` (3 of 4 callers are
query-gated sweeps); `getInReviewStallReason` (needs a **batch
prefetch**, not a per-task resolve — its callers decorate every task on
every list read; the in-review stall badge is wrong on renamed boards
until then); `default-workflow-hooks` planning/live-work sets (needs
`DefaultWorkflowMoveContext` to carry the IR — a shared contract
change).

docs(testing): probe the DOM before theorising about a missing element (#2850)
Earned the hard way this week: three separate causes in `App.test.tsx`
and `board-mobile-view-switch.test.tsx` all presented **identically** as
a missing element, each with a DOM that looked healthy.
| what the test said | what was actually wrong |
|---|---|
| `Unable to find "+ New Task"` | `ListView` rendered its workflow
**skeleton**, which carries the same `list-view` class as the real body
— so the preceding `waitFor(".list-view")` passed |
| `Unable to find role="heading" "New Task"` | `NewTaskModal` **threw**
— an incomplete `vi.mock` was missing `isShortViewport` — and an
`ErrorBoundary` swallowed it |
| `Unable to find [data-testid="switch-to-board"]` | an uncaught render
error **unmounted the entire React root**; the DOM was already empty
three lines earlier |
The part worth recording is the hit rate. **Three theories were offered
before any probe — "the board renders nothing", "i18n is returning
keys", "the FloatingWindow rework" — and all three were wrong.** Three
probes each landed the cause on the first try. Those wrong theories cost
days; the probe is four lines.
The doc records the snippet, what each signal means (`error-boundary` in
the DOM = a swallowed throw, and its text names a missing mock export
exactly; empty DOM with no boundary = unmounted root, so trust the
*first* failing assertion not the reported one; container present but
contents absent = a skeleton standing in), and the corollary for writing
assertions:
> Wait on a marker only the real thing has.
A class shared with a loading or empty state turns *"the list rendered"*
into *"something rendered"*, and the test then fails one line later
against a DOM that looks fine. That is why `list-view-body` exists
(#2834).
Placed under the dashboard testing sections in `docs/testing.md`. Docs
only — no changeset.

docs(workflow-learnings): the fifth shape — converted consumer, literal-passing producer (#2835)
Found by the operator reviewing **my own** shipped fix (#2823). It belongs in this document because it is the only shape so far that every instrument in the program reported as done. ## The defect `clearNearDuplicateReferencesTo` was converted to resolve the canonical's column flags, and my test proved that by supplying `column: "shipped"`. Both production call sites in `moves.ts` gated on the **resolved** complete lane and then passed the literal `column: "done"`. The consumer was correct; the producer was never converted; and the hand-supplied fixture value is exactly what hid it. Why nothing caught it: - the **census** counts comparisons — a value passed as an argument is not a comparison; - the **seam check** asks whether callers *supply* the argument — these did, with a literal; - the **test** supplied the interesting value itself, so it exercised the consumer and never the producer. And the part I would have got wrong: driving the flow end to end still does **not** distinguish them. The consumer looks the passed column up in the canonical's IR, finds nothing for `done` on a renamed board, and falls through to the legacy predicate where `done` *is* terminal — right answer, wrong reason. It only bites on a board that declares a `done` column **without** the complete trait. ## The rule > A differential test must vary the value the **production** code computes, not one the test hands in. If the fixture passes the lane name, it has tested the consumer. Who computes that argument in production, and do they compute it or spell it, is a separate question — and the one that was wrong here. ## Measured, so nobody builds the wrong instrument An AST probe for call arguments shaped `{ column: "<legacy id>" }` finds **79 sites** across `packages/`. It correctly flags the two real `moves.ts` offenders — but most of the rest are legitimate: `set({ column: "archived" })` writing the archive state, `listTasks({ column: "todo" })` filtering a query. So a blocking gate on this shape needs a curated list of consumers that interpret a column as a **role**, as opposed to storing or filtering it — a per-consumer judgment call, not a mechanical check. **Recorded rather than built**, and deliberately not attempted on top of five unmerged PRs in packages I do not own. I also verified one nearby call site that a naive version of this probe flags and which is **not** a defect: `archive-lifecycle-2.ts:353` passes `column: "archived"`, but that path sets `task.column = "archived"` unconditionally, so it is passing the column the card actually reached. Exactly what the operator's fix is about.

glasses plugin: the review actions could never resolve a review lane (4 guards + 3 invisible destinations) (#2816)
Four agent actions still keyed on literals, with three census-invisible `moveTask` destinations between them. `agent-actions.ts` already had `laneContext`/`destination` from an earlier partial conversion — these were simply never migrated. ## Census | file | main | here | | --- | ---: | ---: | | `plugins/fusion-plugin-even-realities-glasses/src/agent-actions.ts` | 4 | **0** | Plus 3 hardcoded `moveTask` destinations the census cannot see (`requestReview` → `in-review`, `returnToAgent` → `todo`, `retryTask` → `todo`). ## The real finding: this plugin could never resolve a review lane `resolveLifecycleColumns` keys its `review` role on the **`mergeOrchestration` trait alone**. A board whose review column carries only `merge-blocker` and/or `human-review` — the common custom shape, since `merge` is opt-in — resolves **no review lane at all**. So every review-gated action here (`requestReview`, `acceptReview`, `returnToAgent`, `retryTask`) compared against `undefined` and **refused every card**, and `requestReview` had nowhere to move one. This is not a regression from converting them; it is why they *could not* be converted with `lanes.review` as-is. Converting the four guards without noticing would have shipped four actions that fail closed on exactly the boards this program exists to support — a conversion that looks complete, passes its suite, and makes the plugin useless on a custom board. **Widened in `laneContext`, not in the shared resolver.** `resolveLifecycleColumns` is consumed well beyond this plugin, and its `review` role deliberately means "the merge-orchestration column" for the merge queue. The gap is already recorded in `notification-renamed-lifecycle-columns.test.ts` and in #2807 — reconciling the two definitions is a core-level decision, not one to take from a plugin. `mergeBlocker` is preferred over `humanReview` because a card cannot leave a merge-blocking column until the gate clears, which is the closer analogue of the legacy `in-review`. ## The suite caught an over-reach of mine My first version put a blanket `if (degraded) conflict(...)` at the top of `retryTask`, which broke a pinned invariant the test names outright: **"a degraded workflow does not block retries that move nothing."** The status-only retry just clears fields; refusing it because the workflow could not be read breaks a recovery that needs no lane at all. Degraded now blocks only the branches that actually **move**. Same reasoning applied to `acceptReview`, which also moves nothing. The existing `startWork` convention — conflict on degraded — is right precisely *because* it moves. ## Ordering `returnToAgent` and `retryTask` now resolve their destination **before** the field clear. Both cleared first, so a rejected move left the assignee and status — or the worktree, branch and base refs — nulled with the card exactly where it was. That is the fifth instance of this half-applied shape in the audit, and it is rule 3 in the class doc. ## Revert results (measured, each independently) | conversion | reverted → | | --- | --- | | `requestReview` destination | 1 failed — moves to the literal `in-review`, which this workflow does not declare | | `returnToAgent` destination | 1 failed — moves to the literal `todo`, same | Plus a non-vacuous companion: a renamed card *not* in the wip lane must still be refused by `requestReview`, so a gate admitting everything would not pass. ## Verification - Plugin suite — **186/186** - `pnpm test:gate` — 161 + 487 + 13 + 71, green - `tsc` on the plugin — clean - `pnpm lint`, `check:changesets`, census `--strict` — all clean (run explicitly) |

batch-dashboard-app: 75 → 2 across packages/dashboard/app — the last two are deliberate, not missed (#2772)
**Batch branch is live: `batch-dashboard-app`.** Push conversions here as commits rather than opening per-file PRs — that is the CI-run bottleneck this model removes. **One-line ownership note for you to arbitrate:** you have addressed me as U11, U12 and U7 at different points, so the `u12 worker -> batch-dashboard-app` mapping is ambiguous from my side. I claimed it because `dashboard/app` is where I have done the most work this session (TaskContextMenu, Column, TaskCard, TaskDetailModal, columnRoles, taskActivity) and I know which of its guards are load-bearing fallbacks. **If another worker is the intended owner, say so and I will hand the branch over rather than both of us pushing to it** — two workers on one shared branch is exactly what silently discarded a reviewed fix in #2645 today. ## The work order (measured at branch point, tests excluded) **75 guards across 32 files.** Largest: `TaskContextMenu.tsx` 9 · `Column.tsx` 7 · `ListView.tsx` 6 · `TaskDetailModal.tsx` 4 · then a long tail of 3s, 2s and 1s. Full per-file list is in the committed work order so feeders can claim without re-measuring. ## Two rules this surface keeps tripping on **1. A literal after `??`, or in the `else` of a `flags ?` ternary, is a DEGRADED-MODE answer — not an unconverted guard.** Two real states reach it: the **pre-load window** (board renders before the workflows fetch resolves) and a card stranded on an id its workflow no longer declares. In both, `columnFlagsById` has no entry at all. Deleting the fallback does not remove a decision — it substitutes "no role" silently, and affordances vanish during first paint. Those sites reach 0 by **marking**, not deleting. Expect `TaskContextMenu.tsx` and the `utils` files to be **mostly marks**. A "9 → 0" that deleted 9 fallbacks is a regression wearing a green census. **2. A marker excuses ONLY the construct it is attached to** — the statement or function holding the literal, not a sibling declaration. This has cost three passes, two of them mine; my first attempt on `reliability-metrics.ts` scored **1 of 6**. **Verify by the count moving, not by the comment existing.** With the ratchet gate-blocking, a mis-marked batch either wedges the gate or locks the miss into a re-recorded baseline. ## Status Opening commit is the work order only — **0 of 75 converted so far.** I am near the end of my context, so I am establishing the branch and the shared list rather than starting conversions I cannot finish cleanly. Feeders can begin immediately; I will keep the branch rebased. My other PR **#2762** (`live-agent-count.ts` 6 → 0) is green and unconflicted — per your rule it should land rather than fold into a batch, and it is `packages/core` so it belongs to batch-core anyway. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Task UI now resolves workflow “column roles” per task to drive diffs/merge details, routing/steering, progress/runtime visibility, and review badges. * Right-dock/overflow views and dev-server now use per-task column traits for “executing” behavior and dependency-based “Up Next” eligibility. * **Bug Fixes** * Fixed bulk action selection/delete/archive eligibility and prevented cross-workflow role leakage. * Made in-review/stale-paused-review, stuck, and effective executor/validator model logic role-aware. * **Tests** * Added regression coverage for degraded-flag behavior and ensured resolved-flag props aren’t ignored. * Added a static check to fail builds on inert optional flag seams. * **Documentation** * Updated batch work-order and mega-batch branch guidance. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --- ## Late addition: the seam gate was masking a real offender `scripts/check-inert-flag-seams.mjs` matched call sites by NAME, so two same-named functions in different modules were conflated. I had documented that as a known false-positive source and moved on — reports mentioning `sortTasksForDisplayColumn` are noise, read past them. That annotation was the damage. Core's `sortTasksForDisplayColumn` genuinely never receives its `columnFlags` argument outside its own tests. The dashboard's separate function of the same name (`app/components/taskSorting.ts`), called with up to five arguments from `Lane`/`Board`/`ListView`, was raising the arg-count max and clearing core's seam. The offender was behind a row everyone had been told to skip. The gate now records the module each callee is imported from and matches it against the seam's declaring module. **Measured, by reverting the change:** the scan prints `17 seams, all supplied` and emits **no row** for the function. With the change, it is reported. Both directions watched. Reported on #2783 rather than fixed from outside — core owns it, and "wire the flags" vs "drop the parameter and let the literal stay counted" is their judgment call. TEMPORARY allow-list entry carries it meanwhile; the existing staleness check fails the moment the site becomes supplied, so the entry cannot outlive the fix. Two known limits remain, both inherent to name matching and both documented in the script: the one-supplier floor, and the `__tests__` exclusion (hence the two permanent `ALLOWED` entries). ## And the one-supplier floor, closed the same way I wrote in the section above that the floor "hasn't cost anything yet." That is verbatim the reasoning that kept the imported-shadow bug alive, so I closed it instead of leaving the note. `best < arity` asked only whether SOME caller supplied the argument. One correct call site cleared the seam while every sibling took the legacy fallback — the `isTaskStuck` defect class, where two of three sites omitted the flags and the gate stayed green because the third was right. Review caught that one. A partially-supplied seam is the harder of the two: wholly-unsupplied is uniformly wrong, this works on the board you tested and degrades on the column you did not. **Measured:** dropping the flags argument at `Column.tsx`'s supplied call site produces `supplied by 5/6 call sites; omitted at packages/dashboard/app/components/Column.tsx:1 (of 2)`; restoring returns `all supplied at every call site`. Red and green both watched. Two real omissions found, both on `isNearDuplicateCanonicalInactive`: - **`TaskDetailModal.tsx`** — deliberate, and it **corrects a note I left at that site**. The old note said hoisting the flags state was "the actual fix." It is not, for this call: the flags in scope describe the *modal's* task, and the canonical is a **different task** on a column this component never resolves. Passing them would type-check, read as a conversion, and answer about the wrong task — exactly what `column-role-degraded-flags.test.ts` exists to catch. Supplying it correctly needs a fetch, which is a data change and out of scope. - **`core/task-store/branch-group-ops.ts`** — genuinely wireable (the impl is async and already holds `store` and `canonicalId`). Reported on #2783, not edited from outside. Exemptions for this class are keyed by **call site** (`<file>::<function>`), not by function name. A name-level entry would waive every site of a partially-supplied seam, which is backwards — its other sites are correct and are the reason the omission is worth reporting. Both entries carry the same staleness check as the name-level list and cannot outlive their fix. Remaining known limit, now the only one: the `__tests__` exclusion, which makes a test-only export read as having no callers. That is what the two permanent `ALLOWED` entries are. ## The `__tests__` exclusion, and two allow-list entries built on false reasons Named as the "last remaining limit" above, so it got closed too. The scan now reads test files for call sites — but counts them **separately**, and a test never clears a seam. That direction is the dangerous one: counting test callers as suppliers would have re-hidden core's `sortTasksForDisplayColumn`, whose only suppliers are its own tests. Measured by lifting its exemption: still reported. Both permanent allow-list entries claimed the scanner couldn't see their callers. **Both reasons were false**, and reading tests is what proved it: - **`evaluateMergeBlockerGuard`** — zero callers in tests either. Its only reference in the repo is its own declaration; never registered as a trait hook; the `evaluateDefaultWorkflowGuards` reader its file header credits does not exist. The `lifecycleColumns` conversion went onto dead code, and its note describes a crossing the guard cannot make. Reported on #2783, including the two things I am explicitly *not* concluding (no `"guard"` hook is registered in production; whether that is residue or a dropped registration needs core's intent). - **`isRecoverableMissingWorktreeReviewFailure`** — 5 test call sites. It wraps `...WithProgress`/`...NoProgress`, the live pair called from `self-healing.ts`, both supplying `reviewColumns`. Entry kept, true reason recorded. ### A wrong turn, recorded because it is the failure mode this PR is about I first classified no-production-caller seams as *informational* when they weren't re-exported from a package index, reasoning that a public export might be called externally. That silently downgraded `sortTasksForDisplayColumn` — a confirmed real offender — from failing to a footnote. Publication status has nothing to do with whether there is production behaviour to be wrong. Reverted to the simple rule: no production caller means inert, and it fails. It is worth stating plainly because it is the exact shape of everything else in this PR: a change that made the gate read *cleaner* while making it catch *less*, and it type-checked, passed every test, and would have reviewed fine. ### Where that leaves the check Every blind spot named in this PR has now been closed, and **each one produced a real defect within minutes of closing it** — imported shadows, the one-supplier floor, the `__tests__` exclusion. Four verified findings went to core, one to engine. I would not read the remaining ~240 guards' green gates as evidence that they are clean; I would read them as untested. ## Two guards for one question, one of them worse Having hardened the script, I checked its older twin rather than assuming it was fine. `resolved-flags-seams-have-suppliers.test.ts` carried its own copy of the trailing-flags-parameter check — written before the script existed — with **all three** holes the script has since closed. **Measured on one reintroduced defect** (dropping the flags argument at `Column.tsx`'s supplied `isNearDuplicateCanonicalInactive` call): | | result | |---|---| | `scripts/check-inert-flag-seams.mjs` | `supplied by 5/6 call sites; omitted at .../Column.tsx:1 (of 2)` | | this test's arity half | **3 passed** | Deleted the arity half. Redundancy between a strong and a weak check isn't redundancy — it's a green result available to whoever runs the weak one, and there was no signal at the call site telling you which you were looking at. The **props-shape half stays**: it has no twin in the script, and I confirmed it still fires by reintroducing the original `PrPanel` defect (outer component stops destructuring `taskColumnFlags`) — it reports `PrPanel declares taskColumnFlags but never takes it`. Dashboard app suite: **113 files / 3921 tests** (was 3922 — the deleted case is the difference). ## The gate started catching defects as they landed Syncing with main brought in three fresh conversions from other workers. The hardened check flagged all three immediately — the first time these guards have fired on someone else's landed code rather than on my own. - **`TaskCard`** — `getRunningOptionalGateBadge(task)` omitted flags while *both* `ListView` sites supplied. Fixed, and `taskColumnFlags` added to the `useMemo` deps: no `exhaustive-deps` rule here, so a memo that reads flags without listing them keeps the first-paint `undefined` answer and reproduces the bug through staleness instead of omission. - **`TaskTokenStatsPanel`** — `getTotalAgentActiveMs` omitted while `TaskCard` supplied, so the same runtime number came from the real column on a card and from legacy ids in the detail modal. Now takes `columnFlags`, supplied from `detailColumnFlags` — correct here because the panel renders the modal's **own** task, unlike the near-duplicate canonical above. - **`ListView` ×2** — passed `columnFlagsById.get(task.column)`, the cross-workflow **union**. A task whose own workflow doesn't declare that column gets a *neighbour workflow's* traits. The landed comment justified it as "this list already owns `columnFlagsById`" — exactly the reasoning `column-role-degraded-flags.test.ts` exists to reject. It failed on merge and is how I found this. Also: the `getTotalAgentActiveMs` exemption I was carrying **self-retired**. Main wired the seam, the staleness check failed the entry, and I removed it. That mechanism has now paid for itself once. ### Pre-existing, NOT from this PR: `App.test.tsx` is red on main `app/components/__tests__/App.test.tsx` fails **10 of 141** identically with my changes, with my changes stashed, and with main's own `App.tsx` restored. Not mine, and not in the merge gate. **Bisected on clean `main` checkouts, so this is measured rather than inferred:** | commit | date | result | |---|---|---| | `main~400` (`41d60f0355`) | 2026-07-25 | **140 passed** (140 tests) | | `main~275` (`74d6513fae`) | 2026-07-27 | 3 failed / 141 | | `main~210` (`d2ce1ba8b5`) | 2026-07-29 | 10 failed / 141 | | `main` (`6fc98fd6c7`) | 2026-07-30 | 10 failed / 141 | So it is **not one regression** — it degraded in two stages across 2026-07-25 → 07-29, and the test file itself changed in that window (140 → 141 tests). Three commits touched it there: `73b2a32e2b`, `f26cbedf4f`, `f157bf7460`. That window overlaps the workflow-owned lifecycle migration, which is suggestive but not something I confirmed. The failures are render-level, not assertion-level — `Unable to find an element with the text: + New Task`, `Unable to find role="dialog"`, `Unable to find ... Back nav task`. The board appears to render nothing. That reads like a real regression or a harness mismatch after the lifecycle migration, not a flake, so I have deliberately **not** quarantined it — quarantine is for flakes, and using it here would hide the signal. Flagging for whoever owns `App.tsx`. My suites: `app/__tests__` **113 files / 3921 tests** green, `tsc` 0, lint 0, census `--strict` 0, seam gate 0. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the third census-invisible class: 51 hardcoded moveTask destinations, measured — and duplicates never archived on a renamed board (#2808)
A third census-invisible class, measured — plus the two worst instances
fixed.
## The shape
```ts
if (task.column !== "in-review") { … return; } // the census counts THIS
await this.store.moveTask(taskId, "in-progress"); // and cannot see THIS
```
The census is an AST scan for **comparisons**. A `moveTask` destination
is a **call argument**, so no backlog entry ever points at one.
Converting the guard alone is *worse than converting neither*: the
handler starts admitting work on a renamed board and then tries to move
the card into a lane that board may not declare.
This bit twice in one week — #2797 (`branch-worktree` requeued into a
lane that may not exist) and #2807 (a GitHub "changes requested" review
dropped, then a move to a hardcoded `in-progress`). Both times it was
found only because the guard *next to it* happened to be under
conversion. So I went looking.
## Measured
Across `core`/`engine`/`dashboard`/`cli`/`plugins`, excluding
`__tests__`/`*.test.*` and comment lines:
| | count |
| --- | ---: |
| hardcoded `moveTask` destinations in production | **51** |
| …passing `recoveryRehome: true` — **deliberate**, not defects | 22 |
| …plain, rejected on a board that does not declare the target | **29**
|
**The 22 must not be "fixed".** `moves.ts` exempts them on purpose
(#1411): a card stranded in an undeclared column has to stay rescuable
to a legacy safe-landing column, or it can never be recovered at all. A
sweep that converts them deletes the rescue path. That distinction is
the reason this is 29 and not 51, and it is why I measured before
writing.
## Why this got sharper recently
The `workflowHasColumn(workflowIr, toColumn)` rejection used to sit
inside a block gated on `isWorkflowColumnsCompatibilityFlagEnabled` — a
settings key **nothing in production writes** — so it never executed and
the legacy `VALID_TRANSITIONS` table decided instead. U12 hoisted it out
of that dead branch and it is now live, proven on a real store by
`live-move-path-undeclared-target.test.ts`:
```
moveTask(card in "todo" -> "triage") now REJECTS: /Unknown column for this workflow/
```
That changed the failure mode of all 29 from *"silently lands the card
in an undeclared column"* to *"throws"*.
**29 is not a crash count.** Whether a throw surfaces or disappears
depends on whether the caller catches, which is per-site and I did
**not** measure it — the doc says so explicitly rather than letting the
number imply severity it hasn't earned.
## Fixed here: 9 of the 29
`duplicate-intake` and `duplicate-guard` both archive a duplicate. On a
renamed archive lane the move is rejected, so **the duplicate is never
archived and keeps sitting on the operator's board as live work** — and
in `duplicate-guard` the row has already been stamped
`deterministicDuplicateOf`, so it is *marked* a duplicate while
occupying an active lane. Half-applied, which is the same trap as
#2797's branch clear.
Both now resolve the `archived`-trait column from the task's own
workflow through one shared helper, unioned with the legacy id.
**`cli/commands/task-lifecycle`** — `finalizePullRequestMerge` and
`finalizeNoOpMergeTask` both move the card to a hardcoded `"done"`, and
both run `updateTask({ status: null, mergeRetries: 0 })` *first*. On a
rejection the merge has already landed and the bookkeeping is already
cleared while the card never reaches its complete lane: the operator
sees a merged branch, a card still sitting in review, and a reset retry
counter. Same half-applied shape as #2797's branch clear. Both now route
through one resolver so they cannot drift.
**`contamination` / `foreign-only-contamination` (×2) /
`restart-recovery-coordinator`** — four recovery requeues to a hardcoded
`"todo"`, none of them a `recoveryRehome` escape. On a board without
that column the move is rejected and **the recovery never completes** —
the card stays contaminated or stranded, which is precisely the state
these paths exist to clear.
**Consolidation.** `resolveReboundTargetForTask` and
`resolveArchiveTargetForTask` now live beside
`resolveTaskLifecycleColumns` in `workflow-lifecycle-traits`, already
the store-dependent resolution seam. My first pass put the archive
helper inside `duplicate-intake` and had `duplicate-guard` import it
from there — wrong home, and it would have grown a copy per caller as
more sites converted. Seven call sites now share two definitions.
**Plain (non-`recoveryRehome`) destinations: 29 → 21.**
**Coverage on the CLI pair is scoped, and I'd rather say so than imply
more:** the test covers the *resolver*, not the two call sites. Both
enclosing functions are private and reachable only through
`processPullRequest`, which needs a live GitHub surface — exporting them
purely to test wiring is a worse trade than stating what is covered.
Three cases: renamed lane resolves, no-workflow falls back to the legacy
id (which also pins that a default board is byte-identical), and a
throwing lookup falls back.
## Revert result (measured)
| conversion | reverted → |
| --- | --- |
| duplicate archive destination | new case fails — `moveTask` called
with `"archived"` on a board whose archive lane is `boxed` |
| CLI complete-lane resolver | replacing the body with a bare `return
"done"` fails the renamed case |
| both move-target resolvers | replacing either body with a bare return
of its legacy id fails 5 cases across the resolver suite and
`duplicate-guard` |
Each resolver has a **non-vacuous companion** asserting it does *not*
return the legacy id on a renamed board — without it, a resolver
returning any string would pass. The fallback cases are load-bearing
rather than padding: `resolveWorkflowIrForTask` degrades to the built-in
IR rather than throwing, and the built-in rebound/archive lanes *are*
`todo`/`archived`, so those cases also pin that a default board is
byte-identical.
The pre-existing case asserting the legacy `"archived"` passes both
ways, which is exactly why it could not detect this and why the new one
supplies a workflow.
## Ownership note
`packages/core` was `batch-core`'s territory and `packages/cli` was
`batch-cli-plugins`'. Both batches have landed, and this is
newly-discovered work in the class documented here rather than leftover
conversion backlog. Four sites, two shared helpers — happy for either
half to move if those owners would rather carry it.
## Verification
- `pnpm test:gate` — 161 + 487 + 13 + 71, green
- `duplicate-guard` + `duplicate-intake` — 40 passed
- `tsc` on core and engine — clean
- `pnpm lint`, `check:changesets`, census `--strict` — all clean (run
explicitly; a clean `pnpm lint` alone is not evidence the CI Lint check
passes)

## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **Bug Fixes**
- Duplicate tasks are now archived to each workflow’s configured archive
lane.
- Completed tasks are moved to the workflow-specific completion lane,
with a safe fallback for older workflows.
- Recovery and requeue actions now use each workflow’s configured
rebound lane instead of assuming a fixed destination.
- **Documentation**
- Added guidance on avoiding failures caused by hardcoded workflow
destinations and incomplete lifecycle conversions.
- **Tests**
- Added coverage for renamed workflow lanes, fallback behavior,
duplicate archiving, and recovery destinations.

evidence: the self-healing sweeps do not RUN on a renamed board — 49 hardcoded column QUERIES, and 17/30 fakes hide it (#2800)
**Evidence only — no conversions, no behaviour change.** One doc, one
test. It changes how the fleet should read the largest remaining file in
the backlog.
## The finding, measured on `origin/main`
`packages/engine/src/self-healing.ts` carries:
- **97** lifecycle-column comparisons the census counts, and
- **49** calls of the shape `this.store.listTasks({ column: "<literal>",
… })`.
`listTasks`' option is `column?: ColumnId` — **one literal column**,
applied as a filter in the store. On a workflow whose lanes are renamed,
every one of those 49 queries returns an **empty array**, so the sweep
it feeds does nothing at all.
**The self-healing sweeps are not
mostly-correct-with-some-unconverted-guards. They never execute.** The
`in-review` family alone is roughly half the calls: merge recovery,
wedged merges, branch rebind, pending-step reconciliation.
## Why this matters to the census specifically
```ts
const tasks = await this.store.listTasks({ column: "done", slim: true });
const candidates = tasks.filter((task) =>
task.column === "done" && // <-- the census counts THIS
…
);
```
The census scores the **comparison**, not the query. Converting it is a
legal-looking change that drops a count and changes **nothing an
operator can observe** — the loop body still never runs, because the
list was already empty.
Roughly **31** of self-healing's remaining comparisons are this shape.
Driving `self-healing.ts` to 0 would report the subsystem as converted
while it stays inert on custom boards. In this file the census total is
not merely a floor — it is actively misleading, and I'd rather the fleet
know that before someone spends a week on the 97.
## Why the existing suite cannot see it
Measured across `packages/engine/src/__tests__/self-healing*.test.ts`:
- **30** files define a `listTasks` on their store fake.
- **17** ignore the `column` option entirely.
```ts
// representative of the 17
listTasks: vi.fn(async (options?: { limit?: number; offset?: number }) => {
const all = [...tasksById.values()]; // options.column is never read
return all.slice(offset, offset + limit);
}),
```
The fake is **more permissive than production**. The sweep receives rows
the real query would have filtered out, so the test proves the sweep's
*logic* while saying nothing about whether the sweep is ever *reached*.
A green self-healing suite is not evidence that self-healing runs.
This is the mirror image of
`store-fake-defects-that-masquerade-as-production-bugs.md`: there a fake
is *missing* something production needs and the code looks broken; here
it supplies *more* and the gap looks fixed.
## About the test
It **pins a known defect** and is labelled as such in the file header —
it asserts what the engine does today, which is the wrong thing.
It asserts the **query argument**, not the outcome. The outcome is `0`
either way, so an outcome assertion cannot distinguish *"nothing to do"*
from *"asked the wrong question"*. Asserting the argument also avoids
standing up the git-evidence path these sweeps enter once they have
candidates.
- **Ratchet proven to fire:** repointing `reconcileDoneTaskIntegrity`'s
query at the renamed lane makes it fail — `1 failed | 2 passed`. A guard
that reports success without checking anything is worse than no guard,
so I ran it.
- **Guard on the guard:** a first case asserts the renamed fixture
really does resolve a complete lane that is not `done`. Without it,
every later assertion could pass vacuously if the fixture ever collapsed
to the default vocabulary.
- **Control case:** shows the ignoring fake hands back a row whose
column is `shipped` from a query that asked for `done` — the mechanism
by which the suite stays green.
When the query layer is fixed this test will fail, forcing an update.
That is the intent.
## What I did NOT do, and why
I did not fix it. `column?: ColumnId` takes one id, and the resolution
is circular at the query layer — you need a task to know its workflow,
and you are querying to find the tasks. A real fix is either a
multi-column query option (`columns?: readonly ColumnId[]`) plus a
resolved union across live workflow definitions, or dropping the filter
and post-filtering by role in the engine.
Either is a **behaviour change to a shared store API across 49 call
sites**. That is a coordinator-level decision, not something a
conversion PR should take unilaterally — the same reasoning that kept
membership predicates out of the census. I'd take it on if you want it;
it needs to be a deliberate call, not a side effect of a conversion
sweep.
## Verification
- `pnpm test:gate` — 161 + 487 + 13 + 71, green
- `npx tsc -p packages/engine/tsconfig.json --noEmit` — clean
- `pnpm lint` — clean

docs(u9): audit every non-scheduler execute() call site — exactly ONE ignores pause (#2747)
## What this closes `executor-prompt.test.ts` has 3 failures asserting that `execute()` refuses to dispatch a user-paused card during a global pause. The guard lives in the **scheduler** (`scheduler.ts:1515`, a hard stop that never reaches `.execute(`), so those tests call a layer that has never enforced it. I flagged this in #2719 without being able to say how large the real gap was. This answers that — and the answer is much narrower than "execute() is unguarded". ## Every non-scheduler call site Enclosing method and guard status resolved **programmatically**, not by reading nearby lines: | Site | Enclosing method | Guarded? | Reading | |---|---|---|---| | `executor.ts:3333` | `dispatchUnpauseResume()` | no | **Correct as-is** — it *is* the unpause path; a guard here is self-contradictory | | `executor.ts:3495` | `constructor()` — `task:moved` sub, `to === "in-progress"` | **no** | **The one real gap** | | `executor.ts:5702` | `resumeTaskForAgent()` | yes | `globalPause \|\| enginePaused` + `!task.paused` | | `executor.ts:5858` | `resumeOrphaned()` | yes | same guard earlier in the method | | `in-process-runtime.ts:2255` | `drainWorkflowContinuations()` | indirect | gated by `status !== "active"`; engine pause is expected to leave the runtime non-active | **Exactly one path can reach `execute()` without consulting pause state.** So the open question is not *"does `execute()` need a guard"* but *"can a `task:moved` → `in-progress` event fire while paused"* — narrow, and answerable by whoever owns the pause contract. ## A measurement correction worth recording My first pass used a 40-line window above each call and **mis-attributed two sites**: `:5702` and `:5858` looked unguarded because their guard sits earlier in the same method, above the window. Resolving the enclosing method properly flipped both to guarded and cut the apparent gap from three sites to one. That is the difference between reporting "3 of 5 paths ignore pause" and the truth. A proximity heuristic is not an enclosing-scope analysis. ## Still not decided, deliberately Three options, and they are not equivalent: 1. **Guard the `task:moved` subscription** — narrowest; keeps the scheduler as the single pause authority. Does *not* make the three tests pass, since they call `execute()` directly. 2. **Give `execute()` its own guard** — makes the tests pass, but must not refuse the legitimate internal re-dispatch paths. `dispatchUnpauseResume()` would break outright: it exists to resume a card the operator just unpaused. 3. **Retire the three direct-`execute()` assertions**, covering the invariant at the scheduler layer where it is enforced. (2) and (3) both touch coverage of **user pause** — a safeguard this program re-ratified and told workers not to narrow. Choosing either silently inside a test-repair PR is how a safeguard gets weakened by accident. ## What is NOT verified Whether that subscription is actually **reachable** while paused. Proving it needs a trace of who emits `task:moved` with `to === "in-progress"` under a global pause; if every emitter is itself gated, the gap is theoretical. That trace is the remaining work before preferring option 1 over the status quo. Docs-only — no source, no tests. Lint clean. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Added an audit documenting workflow pause behavior and identifying an event-driven execution path that can create sessions during a global pause. * Recorded findings from existing test failures and reviewed available enforcement points for pause handling. * Documented trade-offs and the remaining decision on where pause guards should be applied. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> |

docs: the census total is a floor — 25 membership predicates it structurally cannot see, one a live defect (#2763)
Docs only, extending the entry #2748 landed. Opening it because the fleet reads the census total as its completion bar, and that total excludes a whole predicate class — a measurement that should not live in a chat reply. ## Measured on `origin/main` - **47** array/Set literals of two or more lifecycle ids, in 35 files. - **25 are membership predicates against a task's column** — `SET.has(task.column)` / `ARRAY.includes(task.column)` — in 19 files. Two are documented fallbacks behind a resolved primary, so **~23 are unconverted guards**. - The census scans `===` / `!==` against a column. **None of these is a comparison, so none is counted.** | file | constant | | --- | --- | | `cli/src/commands/task.ts` (3) | `retryReviewColumns` | | `dashboard/app/components/TaskCard.tsx` (2) | `TIME_INDICATOR_COLUMNS` | | `engine/src/eval-followups.ts` (2) | `OPEN_COLUMNS` | | `engine/src/merger.ts` (2) | `sourceTerminal` | | `engine/src/task-revert.ts` (2) | `REVERTABLE_COLUMNS` | | `core/src/agent-role-policy.ts` (1) | `IMPLEMENTATION_TASK_COLUMNS` | ## One is a proven live defect `isImplementationTask` is `IMPLEMENTATION_TASK_COLUMNS.has(task.column)`, and `evaluateImplementationTaskBind` short-circuits to `allowed: true` when it returns false. **On a renamed board every agent is bind-compatible with every task** — the role check that stops a liaison being handed implementation work (the NEXT-871 loop FN-7851 fixed) does not apply. It surfaced only because a reviewer questioned a coverage claim in one of my dispatch tests (#2739). Passing an agent wasn't proof the evaluator ran, so I asserted a `custom`-role agent must be *refused* — and that test failed against production. Flagged at the site in #2739, not fixed: `isImplementationTask` is a sync pure predicate with no store, and making the routing policy async is a behaviour change to agent admission. ## What this does and does not argue The census is the right instrument — AST-based, honest about what it measures, and it has caught real drift in both directions (it failed on me in #2724 when merged conversions moved an inventory *down*). This is not an argument against it. It is an argument against reading **"backlog: N" as "N guards remain"**. The same shape already appeared in the archived gate (#2724), where the rule is additionally encoded in Drizzle predicates and raw `sql` templates that no comparison scan can see. Two independent classes now, found the same way — by looking at what the instrument's definition excludes. **Extending the census to count membership predicates is deliberately left to you, not done here.** It would move every worker's number mid-fleet, and deciding which sets are lifecycle guards versus board-config definitions or type unions is exactly the judgement `DELIBERATE-LITERAL` exists for — 47 collections would each need that call. ## Verification `pnpm lint` clean · census `--strict` exits 0 · no code changes. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(solutions): the optional-flags seam kept four green suites blind to their own conversion — and why I did not ship a ratchet for it (#2748)
Docs only. No code, no census movement. ## The finding, measured Four consecutive files in this program had **fully green suites at conversion time** that could not have detected the conversion — correct or broken: | file | pre-existing cases blind to the change | | --- | --- | | `github-tracking-reconciler.ts` | **33** (fake store had no workflow reader) | | `TaskReviewTab.tsx` | **45** (`columnFlags` omitted everywhere) | | `plan-approval-hold-invariant` drain | **25** (`opts.lifecycle` omitted everywhere) | | `task-age-staleness.ts` | **12** (`context.lifecycle` omitted everywhere) | The cause is structural. Every conversion here uses the same seam — the caller passes resolved flags, the helper falls back to the legacy id when they are absent — and every pre-existing test omits the flags. So the suite passes **before** the conversion, **after a correct one**, and **after a wrong one**, as long as the fallback is intact. "The suite is green" carries no information about the change. I reported this observation four times in PR bodies. Restating it a fifth time is worth less than writing it where the next worker will actually find it. ## It also corrects the obvious test The natural property is "hold the traits fixed, change the id, behaviour is identical". That is only half the invariant. It does not catch: ```ts // Not a fallback — an OVERRIDE. The id wins even when traits disagree. return column === "in-review" || flags?.mergeBlocker === true; ``` Renaming `in-review` → `checking` leaves that correct, because the trait arm answers. The defect appears in the **converse** direction — a column that still *carries* a lifecycle name while its traits say otherwise, which is what you get by repurposing a default column rather than renaming one. That is the direction that found a live **"Merge & Close" offered on a mid-implementation card** in #2718. ## Why this is not a ratchet — a negative result, recorded I tried to automate it, and I am shipping the reason it failed rather than a guard I do not trust. The **consumer scan is sound**: AST-based, 31 files, 66 role-helper call sites. The **coverage half is not**. The renamed ids this program uses — `building`, `checking`, `converted`, `published`, `backlog` — are ordinary English words that appear in unrelated test prose, and a test merely *importing* the module under test does not prove it exercises the role path. My scan reported `TaskCard.tsx` as covered by `Column.test.tsx` on a **filename coincidence**. A guard built on that reports coverage that does not exist, which is worse than no guard, so it is not shipped. A sound alternative — pin the consumer set and make each new file declare its status — was also rejected: a 31-entry status inventory would conflict with every concurrent fleet PR that adds coverage. That is the same churn already removed from the census baseline by dropping its derived aggregates. The attempt is written down so the next person does not repeat it from scratch, and the requirement lives as a review criterion until someone finds a sound signal. ## What it asks for 1. **A flags-supplying case** — if every case omits the new parameter, the conversion is untested in both directions. 2. **Both directions where both are reachable** — renamed lane, and repurposed column. 3. **A non-vacuous companion** — assert what the widened predicate must still *exclude*, or a predicate matching every column satisfies your new cases. (Both `TaskReviewTab` and the dispatch filters needed this.) 4. **Run the revert and record the failure text.** Twice in this program a new case passed with the change reverted: once because the branch was gated behind an unwired handler (`refine` needs `onOpenRefine`), once because the hook was dispatched by trait and the test IR did not declare that trait, so it never ran at all. Cross-linked both ways with the adjacent `store-fake-defects` entry, with the distinction stated so the two are not confused: **there** a fake is missing a method so a branch never runs and production looks wrong; **here** the fake is complete and the test is correct, but a parameter is absent so production takes its documented fallback. ## Verification `pnpm lint` clean · census `--strict` exits 0 (unmoved — this PR changes no code). 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs(solutions): converting a column literal to a role makes it async — the four forms that ship green (#2710)
Four review rounds across `TaskCard.tsx` and `TaskDetailModal.tsx` each found a **real defect**. None was in the conversion itself — every one came from the same property change. The fleet has ~600 guards left to convert against the same helpers, so this is written down rather than left in four commit messages. ## The property that changes ```ts task.column === "in-progress" // stable for the lifetime of the render tree isWipColumn // derived from fetched trait flags — CHANGES after first paint ``` Column trait flags arrive from a board-workflows fetch. Until it lands they are `undefined` and every role helper falls back to the legacy id. So a converted role is `false`, then `true`, within one mounted component. ## The four forms | | form | symptom | |---|---|---| | 1 | **stale memo** — deps still keyed only on `task.column` | timers, labels, completion dates frozen at first-paint values (4 instances in TaskCard) | | 2 | **frozen `useState` initializer** | the section does not start collapsed — it *appears later, already collapsed*, on a card nobody touched | | 3 | **eager action on a guess** — effect mutates state before flags resolve | a tab opens and instantly bounces; the correction never lands because the action destroyed the state it would have corrected | | 4 | **stale identity** — flags resolved, but for the *previous* entity | roles resolve from another task's workflow: confidently wrong rather than merely stale | **Form 4 defeats the obvious fix for form 3.** A `metadata === null` guard asks whether data *loaded*, not whether it describes the entity currently open — and it only appears in components that stay **mounted across entity changes**, which is why TaskCard never showed it and the modal did. ## Why a doc rather than four commit messages All four ship **green**: types pass, existing tests pass, and the **default board behaves identically** — because on the default lineage the legacy fallback and the resolved role agree. They diverge only on a **renamed board**, which is precisely the case the conversion exists to support. So the failure mode is: census count reaches zero, everything is green, and the feature is broken exactly where the programme was meant to fix it. A reviewer catching these one at a time is the expensive path, and it has now cost four rounds on two files. Also relevant: **this repo has no `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` rule**, so form 1 has no automated backstop at all. ## Contents A checklist a converter can run against a component file, and the concrete fix shape for each form — including tagging fetched metadata with the id it describes, and applying that guard to the **role bindings** rather than only the effects (reordering effects fixes the call sites you noticed and leaves the bindings stale for everything else). Follows the convention already established by the engine-side scoping note in `architecture-patterns/fleet-self-healing-cluster-scoping.md`, which records the equivalent hazard for sync workflow reads. ## Verification `pnpm test:gate` green (10 / 158 / 487 / 71). `pnpm check:lifecycle-columns` exits 0. `pnpm lint` clean. Docs-only; no changeset. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

The ratchet follows the count down — a drop tightens instead of reddening the gate (coordinator item 2) (#2679)
Taken after asking twice for reassignment with no reply, and after the same failure bit a **third** time. No open PR touches the census CLI, so this is unowned in practice — **U12, say so if you have started and I will close this in favour of yours.** ## What changed A **drop** now tightens the baseline instead of failing. Failing hard was defensible in isolation — a stale allowance is a hole, since those guards can return up to the old count while the check stays green. What it missed: **The drop is almost never the failing author's to fix.** Eleven files dropped during one merge wave, none of those PRs re-recorded, and none of their authors did anything wrong. Measured three times since CI began gating this: `columnRoles.ts` 0 → 1, then `executor.ts` twice. A permanently-red gate is a bigger hole than a stale allowance, because it gets ignored and then nothing is guarded at all. **The rise check — the ratchet's actual purpose — is untouched and still fails hard.** ## The residual, named rather than glossed In CI the write is discarded with the runner, so the committed baseline stays stale until someone commits a tightened one. The exposure is bounded (regrowth only up to the old count), printed on every run, and strictly smaller than the exposure from a check people route around. `--strict --exact` restores hard failure for the pinned end state. **One writer:** the write is now a named `writeBaseline()` shared by the tighten path and `--update-baseline`, rather than a second `writeFileSync`. Two writers for one artifact is how they drift — a lesson this file already learned once. ## Exercised end to end | scenario | result | |---|---| | drop, `--strict` | exit **0**, `TIGHTENED`, allowance rewritten 9 → 6 | | drop, `--strict --exact` | exit **1**, baseline untouched | | rise, `--strict` | exit **1** | | clean | exit **0** | Pinned through the real CLI with an isolated baseline. Revert proof: restoring the hard failure fails **1 of 32**. ## Two of my own mistakes, recorded **A vacuous assertion, in the case that guards against vacuity.** I first wrote `expect(allowedAfter).toBeLessThan(4 + allowedAfter)` — true for every number. Replaced with a comparison against the inflated value the fixture started from. This file documents that trap repeatedly and I still walked into it, which is the argument for the mechanical revert check over careful reading. **The env override is `FUSION_CENSUS_BASELINE_PATH`**, not the `FUSION_CENSUS_BASELINE` I used in the first draft — so the first version of these cases silently ran against the **real** baseline and passed for the wrong reason. A test whose fixture never took effect is the same failure as a test whose fixture can't fail. ## Verification 32/32 census suites, `pnpm test:gate` **71/71**, `--strict` exits 0, `pnpm lint` clean, `docs/testing.md` updated. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --- ## Update — the base-ref ratchet (review round 2, commit `4895845579`) The first version of this PR shipped a **named residual**: the tightening write dies with the CI runner, so the committed allowance stays high and a later PR can regrow guards up to it while `--strict` prints green. I called the exposure bounded and moved on. Greptile flagged it P1 and was right — naming a hole is not closing one. `--strict` now stops trusting the committed number for files the branch touched. It measures each **changed** file at the base commit (`FUSION_CENSUS_BASE_REF`, else the PR base branch, else `origin/main`) and fails if the file carries more guards than the base ref has. **The enforced ceiling is what main has today**, so a stale, missing, or long-unrecorded baseline no longer opens a window. | decision | why | |---|---| | changed files only, `<ref>...HEAD` | untouched files have main's counts by construction; censusing all ~400 at the base ref is ~400 `git show` calls to re-derive numbers that cannot have moved. Three-dot also stops charging this branch for guards that landed on main after the fork. | | a new file's base allowance is **0** | "absent at the base ref" as unbounded would make a new file the cheapest place to hide a fresh guard | | fails **open** on an unresolvable ref, printing `SKIPPED` | a shallow clone cannot produce an honest comparison; a degraded run must not read as a clean one. The baseline comparison still applies. | | merged into the existing `regressions` list | one failure per file, and `--update-baseline` keeps working as the deliberate escape hatch. No new exit path. | **Revert proof, measured both ways.** With the base-ref block removed, the regrowth fixture — base commit 2 guards, HEAD 5, baseline allowing 9 — exits **0** with `TIGHTENED`, which is precisely the reported scenario. With it: exit **1**, `column-guard count ROSE`, `above its count on the base ref`, baseline left at 9. **3 of the 4** end-to-end cases go red on revert. The fourth passes without the fix by design — it is the genuine-conversion case the auto-tighten exists to keep green, and a case that reddens either way proves nothing. The end-to-end suite builds a throwaway two-commit `git init` repo under the temp dir, because this exploit is a property of the **plumbing**, not of the comparison: resolving a ref, working out the changed set, reading base source through `git show`. The comparator itself is pure with the reader injected (`findRegrowthAgainstBase`), with its own cases in `lifecycle-column-census-ast.test.ts` — including the one that would silently pass everything, looking up the wrong key in `summarize().byFile`. **Rebased onto `origin/main` @ bc782d8d92** (the branch was forked before the recent merge wave; its baseline read 746 against a tree of 722). Verification on the rebased branch: census **722** / `--strict` exit 0 · **70/70** across both census suites · `pnpm test:gate` **71/71** · `pnpm lint` clean. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

fleet: scheduler.ts 28 → triaged (NOT converted) + repo-wide reachability measurement — the work order sorts on a number that doesn't predict convertibility (#2687)
## Claim `packages/engine/src/scheduler.ts` — the largest **unclaimed** cluster (28). Triaged, **not converted**, for the reason below. Census unchanged: **722 → 722**. No baseline movement is claimed, because nothing was converted. ## Why not converted Three of us independently hit the same wall on our first file — #2683 and #2684 (`self-healing.ts`), #2685 (helper coverage). This measures the whole backlog **once** so the remaining workers don't each pay that cost. Two constraints gate conversion. Neither is visible in the per-file counts the work order sorts on. ### 1. Location — the helpers aren't importable from 80% of the backlog `isIntakeColumnRole` / `isPreImplementationColumnRole` / `isHoldColumnRole` live in `packages/dashboard/app/utils/columnRoles.ts`, a dashboard-**app** module. | Location | Guards | Share | Importable? | |---|---:|---:|---| | `packages/engine/**` | 316 | 43% | no | | `packages/dashboard/app/**` | 150 | 20% | **yes** | | `packages/core/**` | 148 | 20% | no | | `packages/dashboard/src/**` | 78 | 10% | no | | `packages/cli/**` | 24 | 3% | no | | plugins | 6 | 1% | no | **150 of 722 (20%)** can call them at all. Widening the helper *set* (#2685, correctly) does not move this number — it's the module's location, not its coverage. Core already exports `resolveColumnFlags`, so a core-side predicate module would be *the same* abstraction made reachable, not a new one. It is a prerequisite for the other 80% and **not sufficient** — see below. ### 2. Flag scope — the binding constraint A role predicate needs resolved trait flags. Most guards run in functions handed a bare task row with no IR to resolve from. Threading one in changes a signature and its call graph: a **behavior change, out of scope**. File-level proxy over the 572 non-dashboard guards: **339** in files that reference an IR/flags resolver, **233** in files with none. **That proxy overstates convertibility, and the overstatement is the finding.** Reachability varies *within* one file, so a file-level verdict is unusable. In my claimed cluster: | Site | Context | Convertible? | |---|---|---| | `scheduler.ts:1690` | `resolveWorkflowIrById(...)` + `resolveColumnFlags(c)` in the same block | **yes** | | `scheduler.ts:231` | `isLegacyDependencySatisfied(dep: Task \| undefined)` | no — task only | | `scheduler.ts:341` | `shouldHoldActiveFileScopeLease(...)` | no — task only | So "convert the file" is not a unit of work that exists in this backlog, and the rule *"the baseline must shrink by exactly your converted count"* cannot be satisfied per-file until the count is per-site. ## A guard that must be skipped, not guessed `packages/core/src/task-merge.ts:254`: ```ts if (!options.skipColumnIdentityCheck && task.column !== "in-review") { ``` The parameter is `Pick<Task, "column" | "paused" | ...>` — no IR, deliberately. The in-source FNXC comment records that callers who *have* resolved the `merge-blocker` trait pass `skipColumnIdentityCheck` rather than spoofing `{ ...task, column: "in-review" }`. The trait-aware path already exists *beside* this literal. Converting it wouldn't remove a legacy id — it would delete the fallback the option was introduced to make explicit. **Flagged and skipped.** ## Suggested census upgrade (not done here) Emit per-site whether trait flags are resolvable in the enclosing scope. That turns the work order from "largest file" into "largest **convertible** cluster" and makes baseline shrinkage predictable. I did not touch `scripts/lifecycle-column-census.mjs` — it is the shared instrument and changing it unannounced would invalidate everyone's in-flight before/after numbers. ## Method correction worth propagating to every fleet worker Claim-collision scans must compare a branch to its **merge base**, not to `origin/main`. `git diff origin/main origin/<branch> -- <file>` reports a difference when the branch is merely *stale* (the file didn't exist at its base) — it flagged dashboard and CLI PRs as touching engine E2E files. I nearly skipped a free cluster on that false signal. `feature/code-organization-wave17` is excluded from collision checks: **1556 files, 150 commits behind main, already `DIRTY`**. It must rebase wholesale regardless, and counting it as a claim marks *every* cluster in the backlog as taken. Docs-only — no source, no test, no census change. |

fleet: self-healing.ts 110 → scoped (NOT converted) — sync workflow reads make this cluster unsafe to batch (#2683)
Claiming the largest unclaimed cluster per the work order, then **handing it back sized rather than half-converted.** Docs only; census unchanged (722 / triage 0). ## The cluster `packages/engine/src/self-healing.ts` — **110 guards**, largest single file in the order. ``` by column: in-review 48 · in-progress 20 · done 17 · todo 13 · archived 12 by receiver: column 100 · to 7 · from 3 ``` ## Why the mechanical conversion is unsafe here **The engine has no synchronous way to learn a task's workflow.** `resolveTaskWorkflowIrSync` returns the DEFAULT IR for every task in production — `getTaskWorkflowSelection` returns `undefined` unconditionally (a PG-cutover stub), so the reader always takes its `!workflowId` branch. It is typed non-optional, so **no caller can detect the substitution.** A conversion routed through it: compiles, reads better than the literal, **counts as census progress**, and is wrong for every custom workflow, silently. That is strictly worse than leaving the literal — the literal is at least honest about being one. It is the "guard that cannot fire" pattern wearing better clothes, and the ratchet would score it as a win. The correct form uses `resolveTaskLifecycleColumns(store, taskId)` (async, store-aware), which needs resolved lanes **in scope per method**. Sampled sites (926, 932, 984) do sit in `async` methods so it is reachable — but that is a per-sweep restructuring, not a per-line substitution, and these sweeps iterate task lists, so a naive per-task resolve turns one sweep into N store reads. **In-tree precedent:** `triage.ts` `discoverReadyPlanningTasks` solved this exact problem — store-free `couldBeCandidate` prefilter, bounded (8) concurrent resolve over the survivors, decision stays synchronous over a resolved map. Any batch here should follow that shape per sweep. ## Recommended split, by SWEEP not by column 110 sites cannot honour *"census before/after, baseline shrinks by exactly the converted count"* while also restructuring six-plus sweeps in one PR. 1. **the review/merge sweeps** (`in-review` 48) — largest, and the one where a wrong lane silently changes **merge eligibility**. First and alone. 2. **WIP/rebound sweeps** (`in-progress` 20, `todo` 13). 3. **terminal sweeps** (`done` 17, `archived` 12) — read `complete`/`archived`; most mechanical of the three. 4. **the 10 `from`/`to` sites** — these are MOVE-transition arms, not task-column reads. Different question (*"is this transition into a review lane?"*), so they must not ride along with the `task.column` work. ## Why I am not doing item 1 myself I am near the end of a long session — this is the same context in which I produced a confidently-wrong structural finding earlier today (retracted in #2667, where I trusted a hand-rolled brace counter over a comment in the file). A 48-site restructuring of the merge-eligibility sweeps is exactly the work that should not be done by a worker in that state, and the fleet rules' *flag-and-skip* discipline is the right call over guessing. **What a fresh worker gets from this PR:** the site census, the async-scope survey, the hazard with its root cause, the in-tree pattern to copy, and a four-way split with the risky piece isolated. That is the expensive part of the job already done. ## Fleet rule this cluster proves, worth adding to the brief **Never resolve a workflow synchronously in a converted guard.** Use `resolveWorkflowIrForTaskWithProvenance` (branch on `source`) or `resolveTaskLifecycleColumns`; if neither is reachable at the site, flag and skip. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Closing-bar verification pass on origin/main — one tree, one report (+ the E2E red it found) (#2660)
**Closing-bar item 4, run on one clean tree at `origin/main` (`be63e72f1`).** Nobody was assigned this and my own work is merged, so I took it. > **This PR is now REPORT-ONLY — net zero file changes.** I found the planning-lane E2E red, fixed it, then discovered **#2658 (gsxdsm) makes byte-for-byte the same change** to the same helper and was opened first. I reverted mine rather than leave two identical edits to one function to conflict. **The E2E result below depends on #2658 landing** — on `origin/main` without it, that suite is 2 failed / 5 passed. > > The duplication is worth one note for the fleet: two workers independently hit the same control-card failure and independently traced it to FN-7648's unplanned-seed gate plus a fixture that never wrote a spec. Independent confirmation of the diagnosis, but also ~an hour spent twice — the census-style work order exists to stop exactly that, and E2E fixture defects are not on it. ## Report — all four, one tree | Check | Result | |---|---| | `pnpm test:gate` | **PASS** (132 + 10 + 487 + 71 tests) | | `pnpm verify:fast` | **PASS** — 13 steps green in 89.9s, boot smoke `GET /api/health 200`, clean shutdown | | E2E families | **13 files / 109 tests PASS** — *after* the fix below; **2 failed** before it | | census | total **787**, triage **10** | ## Two corrections to the bar itself **1. It is not "all-8 E2E" any more — there are 13 families.** The suite grew while the bar was being written: ``` agent-count · agent-link · lease-rebound · lifecycle · merge-family · merge-rebound merge-safeguards · merged-board · planner-lane · planner-lane-resolution planning-lane · rebound-family · stranded-column ``` A verification pass scoped to 8 would have skipped 5 families — including the one that was red. Worth fixing the number in the bar so the final pass globs rather than counts. **2. `DELIBERATE-LITERAL (reviewed)` reads 3, and I chased it — RESOLVED, no gap.** I flagged the drop from an earlier "7" as a possible fleet-safety hole. It is not one. Reconciled against `--json byFile`: | File | markers | counted `deliberate` | counted `column` | |---|---|---|---| | `hold-release.ts` | 2 | **2** | **0** | | `live-agent-count.ts` | 1 | **1** | 6 | | `replan-target.ts` | 2 | 0 | 4 | `deliberate: 3` = hold-release 2 + live-agent-count 1, which is exactly the set of marker-covered **comparisons**. `replan-target.ts`'s two markers sit above `return "triage"` **return-value** literals, not comparisons — the census correctly does not count those as guards at all, so they are neither `deliberate` nor `column`. The earlier "7" was simply a different tree state before conversions landed; I was quoting a stale number. Worth noting the marker matcher is already hardened for the subtle case: `hasDeliberateMarker` walks every **ancestor** rather than the enclosing statement, because the real markers sit above the enclosing *function* while the comparison is a `return` inside it — a statement-only lookup "silently reclassified three reviewed literals as backlog". That is the guard-cannot-fire pattern, already caught and fixed by whoever wrote the AST version. **Consequence for the fleet: the census's categories are trustworthy as-is.** No pre-launch action needed on this. ## The red it found `workflow-planning-lane-live-e2e.pg.test.ts` — **2 failed / 5 passed**, including its own **control** case: ``` releases an ordinary held card on a default board (the control) → AssertionError: expected [] to include 'FN-OK' ``` `seedHeldTask` never wrote a `PROMPT.md`, so task creation's bootstrap seed stood, and FN-7648's `isUnplannedForExecution` correctly refused to release an unspecified card. **The sweep was right; the fixture was asking it to release a card that had never been specified.** **This is the second instance of the identical defect** — same cause and same fix as `workflow-lifecycle-live-e2e`'s `seedTask` in #2634. This suite was written after that fix and did not inherit it. The graph-entry contract doc already states the rule: *"Scheduler/release test fixtures must model a card that cleared the gate ... A held unreviewed card is the gate working."* Both failures had one cause — the mid-sweep approval-park case was downstream of the control never releasing. **5 → 7 passed**, and cards that are *supposed* to be held still are, held by their own status/marker, which is what those cases assert. Given it has now happened twice, a shared `seedPlannedTask` helper in the E2E fixture module would prevent a third. I did not add one here: it touches suites owned by U7 and U11 mid-consolidation, and this PR should stay the verification pass plus its one finding. ## Bar status after this - **gate / verify:fast / E2E** — green on one tree, with this commit. - **triage → 0** — still **10**, all in U12's `moves.ts` (4) and `register-task-workflow-routes.ts` (1) per file scan; flag resolution in flight. - **ratchet tightened (item 2)** — not done, U12's. - Once triage hits 0 and the ratchet lands, re-running this exact pass is a ~4-minute job and I can produce the final report. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

consolidate/u7: plugins to zero + 8 executor rebound guards + resume lanes (supersedes #2607, #2635, #2640) (#2644)
Consolidation branch for U7, per the new one-branch working mode. **Supersedes #2607, #2635, #2640** — the three of my PRs that were stuck on review threads. My other seven (#2602, #2605, #2606, #2611, #2621, #2628, #2633) are green with **zero unresolved threads** and are deliberately left alone for the merge sweep. ## What is in here, file by file | file | change | guards before → after | |---|---|---| | `plugins/…/glasses/src/agent-actions.ts` | gates, destinations and degraded-resolution refusal all resolve from the task's own workflow | 2 → 0 | | `plugins/…/glasses/src/quick-capture.ts` | accepted capture columns come from the board; default no longer names the deleted column | 1 → 0 | | `plugins/…/glasses/src/settings.ts` | quick-capture default was `triage`, the column #2515 removed | (assignment, uncounted) | | `plugins/…/dependency-graph/src/GraphTaskNode.tsx` | redundant column condition deleted | 1 → 0 | | `packages/engine/src/executor.ts` | 8 rebound guards compare the resolved column; 4 resume-eligibility literals share one resolver | 151 → 143 (+4 off-bar) | | `packages/engine/src/__tests__/` | 4 new suites, 26 cases | — | `plugins/` reaches **zero** column guards with this branch. ## The three threads it closes **#2607 — five findings, all mine, all the same rule.** I kept *qualifying* a legacy-id fallback instead of removing it: | attempt | rule | hole review found | |---|---|---| | 1 | fall back to `todo` when the role is missing | moved cards to phantom columns | | 2 | …only if the workflow **declares** `todo` | aliased **review** lane named `todo` | | 3 | …and only if no other role is assigned to it | **traitless** parking column named `todo` | The qualifications were the mistake. Once `resolveLanes` returns a lane set the workflow *has* a column vocabulary, so "no column carries the hold trait" is a complete answer — refuse. `destination()` is two lines now, with no aliasing surface left to qualify. Plus a sixth, which is a genuinely different state: **degraded resolution is indistinguishable from the default board.** `resolveWorkflowIrForTask` is total by design — a missing definition silently returns the *default* coding IR — so a card on a custom board whose definition could not be read resolved to `todo`/`in-progress`. `undefined` lanes cannot express that (it means "no workflow at all", where the legacy ids *are* the answer). The actions now refuse with 409. #2618 would replace this check with resolver provenance; it is not merged, so this does not depend on it. **#2635 — "seven rebound sites remain untested."** Fair; my "same shape" note was an assertion, not coverage. Seven of the eight need a live graph run to reach, so the *shape* is pinned instead: a static check that no guard in front of a rebound move compares against a column literal, with a vacuity case (the same detection run against the original shape) and a match-count floor (≥8), because a guard reporting success on zero matches is worse than no guard. **#2640 — duplicate workflow resolution.** Framed as I/O; it is also a correctness bug. Eligibility and re-entry are two halves of one decision and resolved the workflow separately, so a workflow edit landing between them has the halves reading *different boards*. Now one caller-owned memo per decision — caller-owned because a process-lifetime cache would have to guess when a mid-flight workflow edit invalidates it. ## Behavioural findings, not tidying - **The last-resort recovery for completed-but-stranded work did not exist off the default lineage.** `promotedFromPlannerColumn` was false on a renamed board, so finished work resting in planning was never promoted; the code fell through to a review handoff that role adjacency rejects, and the card stayed stuck with its work complete. - **Rebound guards could not see the column their own move targeted.** U5b converted the move target; the eight `column !== "todo"` checks in front of it were left literal, so on a renamed board the engine moved a card into the column it was already in — and `moveTaskInternal` runs reset-on-entry on every real move, so at the `preserveProgress: false` site it reset step progress a second time. - **The FN-1404 `task:move` audit row was lying**, recording `to: "todo"` while the move target was resolved. A run-audit trail that disagrees with the move it describes is worse than none. Not a comparison, so no census counts it. - **A task interrupted by an engine pause never resumed on a renamed board** (off-bar, `in-review`/`in-progress` literals): four comparisons decided one question and had to agree; two of them disagreed on a renamed board, so re-entry silently never fired. ## Revert proofs, isolated per site | reverted | result | |---|---| | `destination()` back to attempt 3 | 3 of 38 fail | | degraded-resolution refusals removed | 2 of 42 fail | | capture set back to the legacy five | 2 of 3 fail (renamed-board suite) | | forward exclusions → literals | 1 of 14 fails | | missing-wip refusal removed | 2 of 14 fail | | `promotedFromPlannerColumn` → literals | 3 of 7 fail | | promotion target → `"in-progress"` | 3 of 7 fail | | one rebound guard → `!== "todo"` | 1 of 3 fails (static shape) | | resume lanes → legacy trio | 1 of 5 fails | Every conversion is paired with a negative — a forward move, a not-a-planner-lane card, a default-lineage card, an unresolvable workflow — so neither "always fire" nor "never fire" can pass for "resolve the role". ## Commit discipline Twelve commits, each one thing: the code move (`resolvePlannerLanes` out of `triage.ts`) is separate from every behavior change, and each review fix is its own commit with its own revert proof. ## Verification - `pnpm test:gate` **71/71** - 162/162 across the glasses plugin's 19 files; 26/26 across the four new engine suites - engine + glasses typecheck clean; `pnpm lint` clean 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Bug Fixes** * Engine recovery and retries now work correctly with renamed or customized workflow columns. * Tasks in manual-intake columns are no longer automatically planned. * Agent actions and quick capture now respect each board’s declared columns and lifecycle stages. * Awaiting-approval tasks are recognized regardless of their current column. * Command Center SDLC funnel stages now accurately reflect customized workflows. * **Documentation** * Added guidance for safely changing workflow-column logic and interpreting lifecycle-column checks. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |
