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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Proven able to fail, not just to count

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

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

and the gate returned to green once removed.

## One claim I withdrew

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

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

## Merge order

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

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

## Verification (measured)

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

Gate/tooling only; no product file touched.

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

## What was wrong, precisely

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

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

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

## Why a prop and not a hook

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

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

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

## Reverted

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

## Verification

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

## One note for whoever owns the FNXC gate

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

d861923355 fix(gate): the inert-seam ratchet never scanned plugins/, where real lane logic lives (#3002)
#3000 showed this gate never scanned `scripts/`. I went auditing my own
instrument after that, and the roots have a **second** hole: the walk
was rooted at `packages/` alone, so every lane parameter a plugin
declares or calls sat outside the ratchet entirely.

## Measured with a control

| probe | before | after |
|---|---|---|
| unwired seam under `packages/` | caught | caught |
| **identical** seam under `plugins/` | **missed** | caught |
| clean tree | exit 0 | exit 0 |

## The sibling gate already knew

`check-lane-wiring` lists `plugins` in its roots, and its header records
the incident that put it there: an unwired `completeColumnsByTaskId` sat
on `main` unreported because the glasses plugin wasn't scanned.

This gate re-opened the same hole rather than inheriting the lesson. Two
scope holes in one instrument is the actual finding — **the roots
deserve the same scrutiny as the matcher, and until now they had none.**
Every blind spot found in this gate so far has been in the matcher;
nobody, me included, thought to probe what it walks.

## Newly visible — audited, not blind-baselined

`plugins/fusion-plugin-dependency-graph/src/GraphTaskNode.tsx` calls
`isTaskStuck()` without the resolved flags, while **six of the seven**
other call sites supply them. That's exactly the partial-supply shape
this gate exists to catch, hidden purely by scope.

It's exempted rather than wired, and the reason is the interesting part.
The plugin has **no lane-trait source anywhere**: it's mounted as a
dashboard view through `PluginDashboardViewContext`, and
`DependencyGraph` receives `tasks: Task[]` and nothing else. Passing the
argument here would pass `undefined` — an unsupplied optional parameter,
which the learnings doc's first failure shape calls strictly worse than
the literal it replaces, because it reads as converted and answers
legacy forever.

Correct supply needs the plugin **view context** to carry per-task
flags: a published-API change. That's the same "needs a data change"
category as the existing `TaskDetailModal` entry, not the "awkward means
wire it" case the exemption rule refuses. I checked that distinction
against my own rule before taking the exemption, because the rule exists
to stop exactly this kind of convenient reading.

Filed for the plugin-API owner rather than bodged here.

## Measured

- seam population **22 → 23** with plugins in scope
- gate's own suite: **18/18 green**
- lint and the FNXC gate green

72f5f8e51a fix(gate): the FNXC stamp gate never validated the hour, so 25:30 passed (#2995)
`check-fnxc-future-dates.mjs` validates the **date** portion of a stamp
and never looks at the clock time:

```js
const STAMP = /FNXC:[A-Za-z0-9_-]+\s+(\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2})/g;
…
for (const match of source.matchAll(STAMP)) if (match[1] > today) hits += 1;
```

The capture stops before the hour, so a stamp may carry **any** `hh:mm`
and pass. Found while pre-flighting #2992, whose new comments read
`2026-07-30-25:30`.

## It is not one typo

Four stamps **already on `main`** carry a clock time that cannot exist:

```
packages/cli/src/__tests__/task-list-board-columns.test.ts:2     -24:40
packages/cli/src/commands/task.ts:29                             -24:40
packages/cli/src/commands/task.ts:636                            -24:40
scripts/check-lane-wiring.mjs:18                                 -24:00
```

Three separate authors, so this is the gate's blind spot rather than one
person's slip — and #2992 adds two more, which is how I noticed.

AGENTS.md specifies `yyyy-MM-dd-hh:mm`. The stamp's whole purpose is to
make the FNXC record a readable chronology of *why* code exists; a
timestamp that cannot exist quietly costs it that, and nothing was going
to catch it.

## The fix

Hours `00-23`, minutes `00-59`, counted per file **alongside** the
future-dated population rather than as a separate gate — same defect
class (a stamp that does not describe a real moment), and one ratchet is
cheaper to keep honest than two.

**Mutations, both directions:**

| stamp | result |
|---|---|
| `2026-07-30-25:00` | **flagged** |
| `2026-07-30-23:75` | **flagged** |
| clean tree | `475 known future-dated stamp(s), none added`, exit 0 |

## On the four existing stamps

Normalized by clamping the impossible hour to `23`, minutes preserved,
so relative ordering within each file survives. **That is a
normalization with a stated rule, not a claim about the true minute** —
`-24:40` most plausibly meant "just past midnight", but writing
`2026-07-31-00:40` would be future-dated against today's local calendar
and fail the very gate this PR extends. Clamping keeps every stamp real,
ordered, and non-future; the exact minute was already unrecoverable.

**Verified:** FNXC gate exit 0, lane-wiring gate exit 0,
`task-list-board-columns` 5/5, lint clean.

Comment-only changes to the CLI files (stamp text inside FNXC blocks),
so no behaviour change and no changeset.

Noted separately on #2992 so its two new stamps get corrected there
rather than landing and immediately failing this gate.

cf6062c524 fix(dashboard): finished cards on a renamed board never refreshed their diff stats (#3001)
Last live site from the stale-lane-dependency sweep recorded in #2998.
**Nine persistent candidates; this and #2996 were real.** The other
seven are covered transitively or by a dependency that already carries
the flags — each checked by hand rather than filed, which is the whole
point of that doc.

## The defect

`mergeSignature` is the key `useTaskDiffStats` uses to notice that a
merge changed what a finished card should display. It early-returns
`undefined` unless `isCompleteColumn`, which derives from the
`taskColumnFlags` **prop** — and its dependency list was three `task.*`
fields, none of which is that prop or carries it.

The flags arrive after first paint, so:

1. first computation runs with flags `undefined`;
2. the role helper falls back to the legacy id —
`isCompleteColumnRole(undefined, "shipped")` is **false**;
3. the key is `undefined`;
4. for a card **already merged when the board loaded** — the common case
for anything sitting in a completion lane — neither `mergeDetails` field
changes afterwards either;
5. nothing recomputes, and the hook never learns a merge landed.

A legacy board hides it: `column === "done"` answers true on the very
first paint.

## Measured

| check | result |
|---|---|
| test written first | red for the right reason — control and negative
passed, only the arrival case failed (`expected undefined to be
defined`) |
| after the fix | 3 passed |
| dropping the dependency again | that same case fails |
| `TaskCard.test` + new suite | **391 tests green** |
| gates | census + FNXC green; lint and `tsc` clean |

The observable is the options object handed to `useTaskDiffStats`, so
the assertion is on the value this component is responsible for
producing rather than on what the hook does with it.

## The negative case

Recomputing must not hand a signature to cards that aren't finished. An
in-flight card has no merge to key on, and inventing one would have the
diff-stats hook treat unfinished work as landed.

## The sweep is now closed

For anyone picking this up later: the four "bounded" sites from #2998's
triage remain unexamined **by design** — their dependency lists all
contain a fast-refreshing value (`allTasks`, a live clock), so any wrong
answer there survives only until the next update. That's a judgement
about priority, not a claim that they're correct.

e78bf20d55 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 only — no code, no baselines.

5adf0d955a fix(scripts): the soft-delete reconciler wrote a literal archived into boards that do not have one (#2999)
## A repair script that wrote a column the board does not have

Under `--apply`, against an operator's live database:

```js
await tx.execute(sql`UPDATE project."tasks" SET "column" = 'archived' WHERE id = ${row.id}`);
```

On a board that does not declare `archived`, that is not a mislabel — it
parks the row in a column the workflow does not have, **manufacturing
exactly the undeclared-column state this migration keeps repairing
elsewhere**.

The selection was wrong in the same direction, which made the write far
worse. "Leaked" meant `column !== "archived"`, so on a renamed board
**every** soft-deleted row looked leaked — including the ones resting
correctly in that board's own archived lane. The repair then rewrote
them. The tool's fix *was* the damage.

## Three changes, because fixing one would have left the others deciding

**The SQL pre-filter carried the same literal** (`AND "column" !=
'archived'`), so the query and the planner each imposed the legacy
vocabulary independently. Dropped it — soft-deleted rows are a small
set, so selecting them all and filtering in the pure planner costs
nothing and leaves **one** place that decides what "archived" means.

**The filter takes the set**; a row resting in *any* of the board's
archived lanes is not leaked.

**The write resolves per task**, because the destination must be that
card's own lane, not a board-wide pick. A row whose archived lane cannot
be resolved is **skipped and reported**, never written with a guessed
id. A recovery script that declines to act on rows it does not
understand is recoverable; one that writes a plausible wrong value is
not.

Verified rather than assumed — a store that answers nothing resolves to
the default lifecycle:

```
lifecycle from unanswering store: {"intake":"todo",…,"archived":"archived"}
```

so a legacy board repairs exactly as before.

## Correcting myself

On #2994 I wrote that this follow-up "needs the same `importCore` seam".
It doesn't: `openBackend` already returns `{ core, store, … }` and this
script already destructures `core`. No new plumbing was required. I
posted that correction on #2994 too, since acting on it would have
wasted someone's time.

## Revert proof

```
✖ a soft-deleted row already in the board's RENAMED archived lane is not leaked
✖ a board with several archived lanes treats all of them as resting places
ℹ pass 5   ℹ fail 2
```

The other two new cases pass both ways by design — they guard the legacy
meaning and the still-catches-a-real-leak direction — so I am not
counting them as coverage of the defect.

## Verification (measured)

- `node --test` across all three script suites — **17 passed / 0
failed**
- `node --check`, `eslint` — clean
- `check-sql-column-literals`, `lifecycle-column-census --strict`,
`check-lane-wiring`, `check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

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

## Gate blind spot found while verifying this, NOT fixed here

I removed a raw-SQL lane literal and expected
`check-sql-column-literals` to drop from 22 — its own header says *"a
LOWER count fails too so the baseline is ratcheted down"*. It stayed at
**22 and green**, because it walks `PACKAGES` only and **never scans
`scripts/`**.

That is the same shape as the lane-wiring gap #2978 closed (it scanned
neither `plugins` nor `dashboard/app`).
`scripts/audit-branch-cross-contamination.mjs:185` still holds `WHERE …
"column" IN ('triage','todo','in-progress','in-review')`, invisible to
the gate. Left as a separate follow-up rather than bundled into a
product fix.

faf4245c7b fix(dashboard): the duplicate chip kept pointing at work that had already landed (#2997)
Second live defect from the same sweep as #2996 — memoized hooks reading
a lane value absent from their dependency list. **13 hits, triaged by
hand, 2 real.**

## The defect

`resolveNearDuplicateCanonicalInactive` decides whether a card's
*"duplicate of X"* chip is hidden because the canonical is finished. It
calls `getTaskColumnFlags`, whose identity changes when the board's
workflow traits arrive — while its own dependency list was `[allTasks]`
alone. So it kept the closure created during the **pre-load** render,
over an empty trait map.

With no traits the role helpers fall back to legacy ids, so a canonical
sitting in a renamed complete lane reads as still **active**, and the
chip stays up advertising a duplicate of work that has shipped.

## Severity, stated honestly

The closure is rebuilt whenever `allTasks` changes identity, which any
task-list refresh does. So this is a **bounded window**, not a permanent
wrong answer — unlike #2996, where the dependency that would have
refreshed it (`task.column`) never changes. On a quiet board the window
is the gap until the next update.

I'd rather say that plainly than let it read as equally severe because
it's in the same family.

## The hoist is required by the fix, not tidying

`getTaskColumnFlags` sat *after* this callback, with a note explaining
that the body only runs during render so the const is initialised by
then. That's true of the **body** and false of the **dependency array**,
which evaluates eagerly — so the reference could not be listed at all
until the declaration moved.

The existing note reasoned carefully about declaration order and said
nothing about staleness, which is exactly how it read as considered.
Both hoisted callbacks close over props only, so the move carries no
behaviour.

## Measured

| check | result |
|---|---|
| test written first | red for the right reason — arrival case `expected
false to be true`, negative passed |
| after the fix | 2 passed |
| **dropping the dep while keeping the hoist** | arrival case fails
again |
| `Column.test` + new suite | **87 tests green** |
| gates | census + FNXC green; lint and `tsc` clean |

That third row is the one that matters: it isolates the test as
load-bearing on the **dependency**, not on the code move that had to
accompany it.

The observable is the prop `Column` computes, not the chip markup —
`Column` is the producer here, and asserting on `TaskCard`'s rendering
would test the consumer of a value this component gets wrong.

## The negative case

Re-resolving must not degrade into "every canonical is inactive". A
canonical still in a live lane keeps its chip, or the fix silently hides
**real** duplicate warnings — worse than a stale one, because then
nothing points at the collision at all.

5ce23b2187 fix(dashboard): the live elapsed-time indicator never started on a renamed board (#2996)
## How this was found

By generalizing the memo-dependency defect in the blocker fan-out
(#2993) into a sweep for memoized hooks that read a lane value absent
from their dependency list — rather than treating that one as a one-off.
**13 raw hits, 12 benign** (refs, or values reached through a covered
object). This is the one that's a live defect.

## The defect

`wantsLiveTimeIndicator` decides whether a card subscribes to the shared
time ticker. It reads `isWipColumn`, `isReviewColumn` and
`taskColumnFlags` — all derived from the `taskColumnFlags` **prop** —
while its dependency array listed only `task.*` fields.

Those flags arrive **after first paint**: the board resolves workflow
traits asynchronously. So:

1. first computation runs with flags `undefined`;
2. role helpers fall back to legacy ids — `isWipColumnRole(undefined,
"building")` is **false**;
3. the card declines the ticker;
4. flags arrive, but `task.column` hasn't changed, so nothing in the dep
array changed;
5. the memo never recomputes. **No live elapsed time, for the life of
the mount.**

## Why it survived

On a legacy board the fallback already answers `true` on the very first
paint (`column === "in-progress"`), so the memo's initial value is
correct and the stale list costs nothing. The defect is
**renamed-board-only**.

This repo also has no `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` rule, so the entire
class is invisible to lint — and a disable directive for that rule fails
CI, so these lists are maintained by hand.

## Measured

The test was written **first** and was red for the right reason before
any fix — the control and the negative passed, and only the renamed case
failed:

| stage | result |
|---|---|
| before the fix | `expected false to be true` (renamed case only) |
| after | 3 passed |
| `TaskCard.test` + `cli-states` + `oversight` + new suite | **456 tests
green** |
| gates | census + FNXC green; lint and `tsc` clean |

The assertion is on `useLiveTimeTicker(enabled)` — `enabled` *is*
`wantsLiveTimeIndicator`, so it observes the subscription itself rather
than a proxy for it.

## The negative case is the one that matters

Recomputing must not degrade into "every card subscribes". A card in the
renamed **complete** lane must stay off the shared ticker, or the fix
trades one stalled indicator for sixty cards waking a backgrounded tab —
the exact cost the shared-ticker refactor documented at this site (it
replaced 60 per-card `setInterval`s precisely because mobile browsers
discard a page that never goes idle).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Revert proof

Restoring the four literals:

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

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

## Verification (measured)

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

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

## Still not addressed in this territory

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

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

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

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

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

## Shape

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

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

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

## Reverted

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

## Two notes

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

## Not done

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

## Verification

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

bb6c08d9d6 fix(scripts): the blocked-by recovery reported "Repairs: 0" on a board it never examined (#2992)
## A recovery tool that reports "Repairs: 0" without having examined
anything

Every lane test in `recover-stale-blocked-by.mjs` is a legacy id:

```js
function isTerminalColumn(column) { return column === "done" || column === "archived"; }
const isActive = row.column === "in-progress" || (row.column === "in-review" && row.worktree && !row.paused);
if (row.column !== "todo" || !row.blockedBy) continue;          // ← the candidate gate
```

On a board whose lanes are named anything else, that gate matches
**nothing**. The planner returns no findings and the script prints
`Repairs: 0`.

An operator running a recovery reads that as *"the board is fine"* when
the tool never examined a single card. **A silently empty answer from a
recovery tool is the worst shape available** — indistinguishable from
success, and consulted precisely during an incident.

This is not dead code: `docs/soft-delete-verification-matrix.md` cites
it as the GREEN backstop for FN-5528, and it has its own test file.

## Detection only — and why I did not "fix" the classification

Correct classification needs the board's resolved trait vocabulary. This
script holds a **raw backend** (`openBackend` → `asyncLayer` + `sql`),
not a `TaskStore`, so resolving lanes here would mean reimplementing IR
trait resolution inside a `.mjs` script — a worse bug than the one it
fixes, and precisely the kind of second, drifting copy this migration
keeps deleting.

So the assumptions are not repaired; they are made **loud**. That is the
same principle the lane-wiring gate applies to itself:

> a gate whose errors land on "nothing to report" is the one failure
mode a ratchet must not have

The unknown-lane list rides on the returned array as a
**non-enumerable** property rather than widening the return type —
`recoverBlockedBy` is consumed as `findings[]` by the entry point and by
tests, and an operator may be scripting around that shape.

## The first test pins the gap rather than papering over it

```js
assert.deepEqual(unrecognisedLanes(rows), ["backlog", "checking"]);
// The gap this warns about, pinned rather than claimed fixed: the planner still sees nothing.
assert.deepEqual(planRecoverBlockedBy({ rows, tasksDir }), []);
```

I would rather the next reader find that assertion than discover it
themselves during an incident.

## Revert proof

With `unrecognisedLanes` returning `[]` (the pre-fix behaviour):

```
✖ names lanes the planner does not understand, so an empty result cannot read as healthy
✔ stays quiet on a legacy board, so the warning means something when it appears
✖ reports each unknown lane once, ignoring rows with no column at all
ℹ pass 5   ℹ fail 2
```

The legacy-board case passes **both ways by design** — it guards against
the warning firing spuriously, so I am not counting it as coverage of
the defect.

## Verification (measured)

- `node --test` — **7 passed** (4 pre-existing + 3 new), 0 failed
- `node --check`, `eslint` — clean
- `check-sql-column-literals`, `lifecycle-column-census --strict`,
`check-lane-wiring`, `check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

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

## How this was found, since the method matters more than the fix

My batch is "cli + plugins + anything left", and I had been reading
*"anything left"* as nothing. Eight packages and all of `scripts/` sit
outside the four named batches. This is the first thing I found there;
sibling one-shot scripts (`reconcile-task-state-consistency.mjs`,
`reconcile-leaked-soft-deletes.mjs` — which contains a raw `UPDATE … SET
"column" = 'archived'`) carry the same hardcoded assumptions and are
**not** addressed here.

fb53a96eaa test(engine): the lease-seam alarm fired downward — re-point it, and close two ways it could pass without a fix (#2987)
## What happened

Both of my source-level audits went red on the advance that landed
#2975. They are exact counters, not floors, so this is the alarm working
**downward** — the direction it was written for. #2975 converted the two
self-healing `shouldHoldActiveFileScopeLease` call sites and closed the
2-of-4 seam that
`workflow-file-scope-lease-caller-gap-live-e2e.pg.test.ts` was
measuring.

I judged the conversion real before updating anything. Both sites now
derive their answers from `resolveProjectColumnsForRoles(...)` sets the
sweep had already resolved a few lines above (`self-healing.ts:4754`,
`:5825`) — trait membership, not a literal. So the numbers moved on
purpose.

## The part that is not bookkeeping

Re-pointing an audit to whatever the code now says is how a guard goes
dead. Both assertions could have been satisfied by something that is
**not** a fix, so both were tightened:

| Way it could pass without a fix | Old assertion | Now |
|---|---|---|
| `isWipColumn: true` hardcoded at a self-healing site — the original
defect wearing the converted call shape, answering "yes" for a blocker
resting anywhere | only checked the key was *absent* | requires
resolved-set membership: `/isWipColumn:\s*\w+\.has\(\w+\.column\)/` |
| a site answering one of the two independent role questions and not the
other | `includes(a) \|\| includes(b)` counted it as converted | `&&` |

The scheduler's own two sites *do* pass literal `true`, correctly — they
have already filtered to a role-resolved bucket, so there the answer is
a fact about the loop, not about the card. The form check is scoped to
`self-healing.ts` for that reason.

## Mutation evidence

Not reasoned — measured. Each mutant applied to `self-healing.ts`, suite
re-run, file restored:

| Mutant | Result |
|---|---|
| baseline | 8 passed |
| M1 — hardcode `isWipColumn: true` at one site | **1 failed** |
| M2 — drop `isReviewColumn` at one site (half-converted) | **2 failed**
|
| M3 — revert both sites to pre-#2975 | **2 failed** |

M2 is the one that justifies the `&&`: re-running it with the counter
reverted to `||` leaves the file **green (4/4 passing)**. The old
counter provably could not distinguish a closed seam from a half-closed
one — the exact blind spot this file exists to remove.

## Verification

`test:gate` exit 0 · live-PG E2E surface **171/171** · lifecycle-column
census exit 0 · FNXC date ratchet exit 0 · `pnpm lint` clean. Production
files untouched (`git status` clean on `self-healing.ts` after every
mutant).

## Scope

The other measured seam, `evaluateParkedAgentTaskLink`, is **unchanged
at 2-of-6** — four callers still omit the resolved columns, so the class
is not closed, only one of its two instances is. That remains
characterized, not fixed, in the same file; converting those four is the
capacity worker's file, not mine.

The call-site facts are still asserted against source text rather than
driven through the self-healing sweep, which would need the full
dependency-lease reconcile harness. That limit was stated in the
original file and still is.

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

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

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

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

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

## Unreachable by every path

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

## It was also polluting two ratchets

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

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

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

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

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

## Why I went ahead

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## No tests existed for this census

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

## Measured

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

## Not done here, deliberately

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

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

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

a57f6699b3 fix(cli): fn task list never printed cards in renamed columns (#2986)
## `fn task list` never printed cards in renamed columns

```ts
for (const col of COLUMNS) {              // the legacy six ids
  const colTasks = tasks.filter((t) => t.column === col);
```

A task in a workflow-defined column matches **no iteration**, so it is
not printed. This is not a wrong label or a wrong glyph — **the card is
absent**, and the output reads as a shorter, healthy board rather than
as a bug. On a fully renamed board the command prints nothing but the
header. `COLUMNS` also still contains `triage`, which U11 (#2515)
deleted.

## Found where the previous author left it

The `DELIBERATE-LITERAL` note directly above this loop is correct about
its own glyph, and it named the deeper bug rather than hiding it:

> NOT claimed as trait-resolved, and the deeper bug is left alone:
because the loop iterates the legacy enum, a card in a workflow-renamed
column is not rendered AT ALL. That is the R8/U10 surface change […] and
a far bigger fix than this glyph.

It also predicted the coupling: *"If this ever iterates
workflow-resolved columns, that difference becomes live and the right
answer is a trait lookup, not this."* So both move together — once the
loop can yield a custom id, the terminal test **must** stop being an id
comparison. Fixing only the loop would leave a renamed done-lane
rendering as active work.

## Two deliberate choices

**Lanes come from the tasks, not from a resolved IR.** A board can span
several workflows and therefore has no single column list, and a card
must never depend on a resolution succeeding in order to be *visible*.
Legacy ids keep their familiar order and labels; anything else follows
alphabetically, so output is deterministic.

**Terminal lanes are resolved**, via
`resolveProjectColumnsForRoles(TERMINAL_ROLES)` — that is a display
question with a real answer, and this function is async with a store in
hand. Best-effort: a failed resolve falls back to the legacy pair rather
than failing the command, and an unresolved custom lane renders as
*active*. Showing a finished card with the wrong glyph is a far smaller
error than the blank board this replaces.

## Coverage, and its limit stated plainly

The lane-selection decision is extracted to an exported seam and tested
there. It is **not** end-to-end: `runTaskList` resolves a real project
context and ends in `process.exit`, so driving it would need the
mock-the-world shell `docs/testing.md` tells us to avoid when a narrower
seam exists. The call site is held by the compiler instead — the loop's
only source of lanes is that function. I have written this in the test
file rather than leaving it implied, because "5 passed" on a helper
could otherwise read as proof of the command's behaviour.

Reverted — the seam returning `[...COLUMNS]`, which is exactly what the
loop did — **all 5 cases fail**:

```
AssertionError: expected [ 'triage', 'todo', …(4) ] to deeply equal [ 'backlog', 'building', 'checking' ]
AssertionError: expected [ 'triage', 'todo', …(4) ] to deeply equal [ 'todo', 'shipped' ]
      Tests  5 failed (5)
```

d541c3154e fix(dashboard): retire the dead .agent-detail-overlay CSS (#2915) (#2985)
Closes #2915. `.agent-detail-overlay` has had **no renderer** since
FN-8619 moved Agent Detail onto `FloatingWindow`, whose `modal` host
owns the scrim (`.floating-window-overlay--modal`). Four CSS sites plus
one inert mobile `@media` rule.

## Why this sat unfixed, and what unblocked it

I filed this earlier and deliberately did **not** delete the CSS,
because two *passing* guards pinned a selector list naming the class:

```
dashboard-overflow-containment.test.tsx:295
mobile-horizontal-pan-containment.test.ts:90
  ".modal-overlay:not(.confirm-dialog-overlay),\n  .agent-detail-overlay,\n  .agent-dialog-overlay,\n  .workflow-output-modal-overlay"
```

Neither list mentions `.floating-window-overlay--modal`. If that list
were the mechanism keeping modal scrims inside mobile horizontal-pan
containment, then FN-8619 moved every migrated modal's scrim out from
under the guard and the dead entry was **masking a live defect** —
deleting it would have been the wrong move twice over.

I said at the time I couldn't settle it without rendering at a phone
breakpoint. **That was wrong — it is answerable by reading**, and I only
went back because the same mistaken conclusion cost me a day on the
Planning coverage in #2982.

**The containment lockdown is global**, on the mobile `html, body` block
in `styles.css`:

```css
@media (max-width: 768px) {
  html, body {
    overflow-x: hidden;
    overscroll-behavior-x: none;
    touch-action: pan-y;
  }
```

`FloatingWindow.css` says so itself at its mobile breakpoint — *"Mobile
keeps the global `styles.css` pan-y lockdown so the dashboard cannot
drift"*. The per-overlay list only reasserts it for overlays that are
themselves scroll containers. Migrated modals are covered by the global
rule, so **no hole, and no masked defect**.

## Verified the guards still guard something

The risk in editing a pinned selector string is turning a real guard
into a string-equality formality:

| state | result |
|---|---|
| after this change | 15/15 pass |
| global lockdown broken (`touch-action` / `overscroll-behavior-x`
removed from `html, body`) | **2 failed / 13 passed** |

They fail on the mechanism, not the text.

## Scope note

Two of the four `styles.css` sites are **grouped selectors shared with
`.agent-dialog-overlay`, which is still live**
(`NewAgentDialog.tsx:415`). So this is a selector-list edit, not a block
deletion — easy to get wrong in a bulk sweep, which is why it is called
out here and in the FNXC note replacing the deleted rule.

The retired mobile rule set `padding: 0; align-items: stretch` on the
overlay. Not a lost feature: `.floating-window-overlay` is `position:
fixed; inset: 0` with no flex context, so those declarations had nothing
to act on — FloatingWindow positions the panel by geometry.

**Verified:** 120/120 across `agent-modals-mobile`,
`core-modals-mobile`, `AgentDetailView.core`, and both containment
guards; `tsc -p tsconfig.app.json` 0 errors; lint clean; FNXC gate exit
0.

Dead-CSS removal with no behaviour change, so no changeset. Main health
while I was here: engine **11475 passed / 0 failed**.

94df80bbd6 test(dashboard): restore the Planning project-switch invariant at its new home (last lane red) (#2982)
Clears the **last red test in the dashboard lane** (measured on `main`
at `41af5e5dbd`: `1 failed | 11180 passed`) and restores a leak-class
invariant that has had no assertion since FN-8619.

## What was wrong

FN-8619 moved Planning out of `MainContent` (its branch returns `null`)
into `PlanningKeepAlive`, mounted by `App`.
`MainContent.planning-project-remount.test.tsx` kept asserting there, so
it could only fail — and nothing asserted the invariant at the new
location. **Deleting the project id from `App.tsx:1956`'s key, or
loosening the gate at `:1954`, failed no test.**

That invariant is not cosmetic. Before the project-keyed host, Planning
kept a running plan's stream, selected session and sidebar list from the
**previous** project, and persisted its session under the **new**
project's storage key.

## I withdrew this test once, and that was my mistake

I wrote it earlier, mutated each guard, saw it stay green both times,
concluded it was vacuous, and handed the problem back. **That reasoning
was wrong.**

App defends this invariant **twice, independently**:

1. the `planningEverOpenedProjectId === currentProject.id` gate, which
unmounts the host for a project that never opened Planning; and
2. the project id inside the host's `key`, which forces a remount
instead of reconciling A's live instance under B.

Either alone upholds the contract. So a single-guard mutation *should*
leave a correct test green — that is defence in depth working, not a
hole. The probe that settles it is breaking **both**:

| mutation | result |
|---|---|
| both guards intact | **pass** |
| key only (drop project id) | pass |
| gate only (`!== null`) | pass |
| **both** | **fail** |

I had mutated guards, not the invariant, and mistook redundancy for
vacuity. Worth recording because it is the opposite error from the one I
have been making all day: I have caught four genuinely vacuous guards by
mutation, and that success made "survived a mutation" read as "proves
nothing" when the honest reading was "the system has a second defence."

## The assertion, and why it is `gone OR different node`

An earlier draft asserted the subtree must be **absent** after the
switch. Wrong: `planningViewActive` stays true, so the latch re-arms for
the new project and a fresh host is expected. Both outcomes satisfy the
real contract — *project A's instance is not reused* — which is what
`subtreeForA.isConnected === false` pins.

## Scope

- Planning case moves to `App.test.tsx`, which owns both halves of the
guarantee.
- `MainContent.planning-project-remount.test.tsx` keeps its **Chat** and
**Missions** cases — those still render from MainContent — and gains a
note saying where Planning went, so it is not re-added there.

**Verified:** `App.test.tsx` 143/143,
`MainContent.planning-project-remount` 2/2, `tsc -p tsconfig.app.json` 0
errors, lint clean, FNXC gate exit 0. Test-only; no product code
touched, no changeset.

6a465e1006 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Reverted

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

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

## Verification

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

## Note

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

2411699756 fix(gate): passing undefined for the lane answer read as supplying it (#2981)
## What

Continuing the #2979 discipline — probe a ratchet with shapes its author
did *not* have in mind — applied to my own inert-seam gate. Four probes,
three got through. Two turned out to be the sibling gate's job. This is
the one that's nobody's:

```ts
resolveSomething("KB-1", undefined)
```

The seam is a trailing optional parameter, so the gate asked how many
**arguments** a call site passes. Spelling the omission out satisfies
that count while the callee receives exactly what it received before:
nothing. The parameter is still inert, the board still reads the legacy
vocabulary — the gate just stops saying so.

Not an exotic spelling. It's what a partial wiring-up produces when
flags are threaded through an intermediate that has none to pass, and
what a mechanical positional edit produces when it fills argument slots.

## Missed by both gates — checked before touching anything

`check-lane-wiring` (#2966) covers the default-valued and options-object
shapes this gate is structurally blind to. I probed it first, and it
caught **both**, so the two remain genuinely complementary rather than
overlapping. But it counts arguments the same way here, so this shape
was uncovered by either.

| probe | inert-seam (before) | lane-wiring |
|---|---|---|
| omitted entirely | caught | — |
| default-valued param | missed | **caught** |
| options-object flags | missed | **caught** |
| explicit `undefined` | missed | **missed** ← this PR |

## The trim is trailing-only

A **middle** `undefined` still positions the arguments after it, so
those are real answers. That's the case that keeps the trim honest, and
it's pinned as a test.

## Measured

| check | result |
|---|---|
| clean `main` | exit 0, unchanged |
| now caught | explicit `undefined` · `void 0` · several trailing
undefineds |
| correctly **not** flagged | a real trailing value · a middle
`undefined` with a real value after it |
| gate's own suite | **12 → 18 tests**, all green |
| reverting to the raw argument count | fails **exactly** the 3
positives; the negatives hold |

## One note on the fourth gate

`check-fnxc-future-dates` went red on this branch — on my own comments.
I'd stamped them `2026-07-31`, which is tomorrow. Fixed by correcting
the stamps to today, not by re-recording the baseline; the baseline
already tolerates some pre-existing future stamps and adding mine to it
would have been appeasement. Worth noting that the gate earned its keep
against the person who has been writing the other gates.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Merge-order hazard, stated precisely

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

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

## Verification (measured)

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

Gate/tooling only; no product file is touched.

634d487c3e fix(gate): a lane id hoisted into a const evaded the SQL column-literal gate (#2980)
## What

In #2979 I argued a ratchet should be mutation-probed with shapes its
author did **not** have in mind, on the day it ships. Applying that to
my own gate: two of three probes walked straight through.

```ts
const LANE = "done";
sql`... WHERE "column" = ${LANE}`                       // MISSED

const LANES = ["in-progress", "in-review"];
sql`... WHERE "column" IN (${sql.join(LANES)})`         // MISSED
```

Both bind the query to the legacy vocabulary exactly as an inline
`'done'` does. An interpolation that wasn't a column reference collapsed
to the NUL sentinel, so the predicate dissolved before the matcher ever
ran.

**This is the shape a cleanup produces.** Hoisting a repeated string to
a named const reads as tidying, which makes it the likeliest way one of
these gets rewritten — and the gate would have gone quiet on a file that
changed only in punctuation. Third time this scanner has had that
failure (static-span join, element-access column ref, now this). The
array form isn't hypothetical: `IN ('in-progress','in-review')` was the
live workflow-analytics defect.

## The first version of this fix was wrong, and that's the useful part

Resolving *any* string-valued const double-counted the analytics files,
which build queries as:

```ts
const completedClauses = [`t."column" = 'done'`, "t.columnMovedAt IS NOT NULL"];
```

Those elements are SQL fragments **already counted where they're
written**. Resolving the const re-injected each into the outer template.
The three analytics files went `3/3/1` → `6/5/2` — and it read exactly
like a genuine find. Only **bare lane ids** are resolved now; the
fragment-array case is pinned as a test.

I also nearly shipped that version on a bad probe: `node gate | tail`
then `echo $?` reads *tail's* exit status, not the gate's. Every probe
reported "caught" while the gate was actually failing on main for an
unrelated reason. Worth repeating because the harness looked fine and
agreed with what I expected.

## Measured

| check | result |
|---|---|
| clean `main` | **22 sites, exit 0, unchanged** — no false positives
introduced |
| now caught | const string · const array via `sql.join` · as-const via
`inArray` |
| correctly **not** flagged | resolver-produced lanes · non-legacy ids ·
SQL-fragment array |
| gate's own suite | **26 → 32 tests**, all green |
| blinding the resolution | fails **exactly** the 3 new positive tests;
the 3 negatives still pass |

The negatives outnumber what feels necessary on purpose: eager
resolution is how this went wrong the first time, and the fragment-array
test is the one that would have caught it.

## Scope

Same-file `const` declarations only. Cross-file imports need a type
checker and a program-wide pass — a constant imported from another
module is **still invisible**, and `--list` output is where that gets
audited. Stating the boundary rather than half-resolving it and calling
the gate complete.

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

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

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

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

### Measured, both directions

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

The gate now catches the thing it was built for.

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

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

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

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

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

### Regression test

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

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

### Also worth knowing

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

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

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

0738fb1c8a test(a11y): the aria-label role guard was blind to the role word inside the t() default (#2979)
## What

[#2965](https://github.com/../pull/2965) fixed thirteen dialogs whose
accessible name restated its role, and shipped a source-scanning guard
so the next copy-paste could not sneak back in. Good fix, real ratchet —
its own header even documents catching one blind spot by mutation during
review.

It has a second one. The matcher looks for the role word at the **end**
of the `ariaLabel` value, which is where all thirteen had it. One
position over is invisible:

```tsx
ariaLabel={t("scripts.title", "Scripts dialog")}
```

That renders the accessible name **"Scripts dialog"** — identical
symptom, announced as *"Scripts dialog, dialog"* — but the value does
not END in the role word, because a `")` closes the call after it.

**Measured:** re-introducing this shape into `ScriptsModal` left the
shipped suite green at **13/13**.

## Why this shape matters more than the one already covered

The rendered label *is* the translator's default string. Whoever writes
the next modal naturally puts the word where the title lives, inside
`t()`, rather than appending it outside the call. The suffix form is
what the original thirteen happened to be; this is the form the
fourteenth takes.

## The fix

Every quoted literal that is actually rendered is checked with the same
matcher, not just the whole value.

i18n **keys** are excluded, or the guard fires on
`t("agents.onboarding.dialogLabel", "AI Interview")` — live in the tree
today, and it announces nothing of the sort. Key-shaped means dotted and
whitespace-free, which no real accessible name is. Keeping this narrow
is the whole difficulty: a scan that flags every translated title gets
deleted within a week.

## Measured

| run | result |
|---|---|
| baseline, unmutated `main` | **18/18 green** — no false positive
anywhere in the corpus |
| mutation A — role word inside the `t()` default | **1 failed / 17
passed** (was green before) |
| mutation B — original trailing-suffix shape | **1 failed / 17 passed**
— no regression |

Both defect shapes now fail the guard. Five matcher cases added, three
of them negative; the negatives are what keep the scan from flagging
every translated title.

## Note for the queue

**#2946 is fixed on `main` and can be closed** — I verified all thirteen
callers are clean there, the one grep hit being that i18n key. This PR
is about the guard behind it, not the fix.

Third time in this program an instrument has been blind to a case in its
own motivating class, now across three tools and three authors. The
pattern is not carelessness — each guard was checked against the shapes
its author had in mind. Mutation against a shape you did *not* have in
mind is the only thing that has caught any of them, which is an argument
for making it routine when a ratchet ships rather than when someone gets
suspicious later.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Narrow resolution, deliberately

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

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

## One shape choice worth flagging

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Revert proof

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

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

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

## Verification (measured)

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

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

7fde4bb3ad fix(a11y): my #2965 gave six dialogs two elements with the same accessible name (#2977)
**This fixes a regression I introduced in #2965, found by re-running the
full dashboard lane on `main` rather than trusting the targeted runs I
did at the time.**

`AddNodeModal` and `ConnectNodeModal` are red on main:

```
→ Found multiple elements with the text of: Add Node
→ Found multiple elements with the text of: Connect to Node
```

### Cause

#2965 dropped the redundant `" dialog"` suffix from each
`FloatingWindow`'s `ariaLabel`. That was correct — `role="dialog"`
already conveys it. What I missed is that six of those modals **also**
put an `aria-label` with the *same* text on their own inner `<div>`:

```jsx
<FloatingWindow ariaLabel={t("nodes.addNode", "Add Node")} …>
  <div className="modal modal-md add-node-modal" aria-label={t("nodes.addNode", "Add Node")}>
```

Before #2965 the two differed (`"Add Node dialog"` vs `"Add Node"`), so
`getByLabelText("Add Node")` matched exactly one element. Now both
match.

### Why the inner one goes, not the dialog's

Those inner labels sit on **role-less `<div>`s**, where assistive
technology ignores `aria-label` entirely — it was never conveying
anything to anyone. Removing it restores a single accessible name per
dialog and needs no test changes.

### Surface enumeration — four of the six were latent

Only two surfaced as failures; the other four have no test querying by
that name, so they would have shipped a duplicate accessible name
silently. Found by scanning every component for an inner `aria-label`
whose expression matches its own `ariaLabel` prop:

| modal | was it red? |
|---|---|
| `AddNodeModal` | red on main |
| `ConnectNodeModal` | red on main |
| `GroupTaskModal` | latent |
| `NodeDetailModal` | latent |
| `ScriptsModal` | latent |
| `WorkflowAddStepModal` | latent |

### Five more, deliberately untouched

`AgentDetailView`, `PlanningModeModal`, `SettingsModal`
(`role="region"`), `ScheduledTasksModal` (`role="listbox"`) and
`NewTaskModal` (`role="dialog"`) also carry their dialog's name on an
inner element — but those elements **have a role**, so the label is
meaningful rather than dead markup. A listbox named "Automations" inside
a dialog named "Automations" is redundant, not broken, and renaming it
is a UX decision rather than a cleanup. Left alone and recorded here.

**Verified:** 93/93 across `AddNodeModal`, `ConnectNodeModal`,
`NodesView`, `GroupTaskModal`, `ScriptsModal` and the #2965 aria guard;
`tsc -p tsconfig.app.json` 0 errors; lint clean; FNXC gate exit 0.

Product-code change to a11y markup, so this is user-visible but needs no
operator-facing note — say the word if you want a changeset.

**Measured dashboard-lane state on main before this PR:** `3 failed |
11173 passed`. Two are these; the third is
`MainContent.planning-project-remount`, which belongs to #2420 and is
detailed there.

eb9cd431c1 fix(glasses): settings silently discarded the operator's own lane names, so notifications never fired (#2973)
## The operator configures their lanes, and the plugin throws it away

`TaskColumn` was the closed legacy union and `COLUMN_SET` gated every
settings read against it:

```ts
.filter((value): value is TaskColumn => COLUMN_SET.has(value as TaskColumn));
```

**`notifyOnColumns` is a free-text string array in the schema** (`type:
"array", itemType: "string"`) — the UI invites any lane name. So an
operator on a renamed board types `checking`:

1. `getNotifyColumns` filters it out — not in the legacy five
2. `columns.length === 0`, so it substitutes `DEFAULT_NOTIFY_COLUMNS` =
`["in-review"]`
3. their board has no `in-review`
4. `notifier.ts` builds `new Set(getNotifyColumns(...))`, and
`diffSnapshots` tests `notifyOnColumns.has(task.column)`

**No notification ever fires.** The feature is silently off while the
setting reads as configured, and nothing surfaces an error.

`quickCaptureDefaultColumn` had the same shape with an extra irony: it
was rewritten to `todo` *before* `normalizeCaptureColumn` saw it — and
that function already validates against the board's **declared** columns
and falls back to the workflow's own intake lane. The pre-filter
destroyed the operator's answer immediately before the code that could
have honoured it.

## Fix

Validation is now **structural** (non-empty string) rather than
**vocabulary-based**. `TaskColumn` mirrors core's `ColumnId`
(`LegacyTaskColumn | (string & {})`), so legacy ids keep autocomplete
while custom ids are admitted. `COLUMN_SET` survives only as the
quick-capture dropdown's suggestions, not as a gate.

**Deliberately not resolving the board's columns.** That needs a
board-columns endpoint `FusionApiClient` does not have — a new read, not
a rename — and that gap is already recorded in this file by an earlier
audit. This change is orthogonal to it: accepting operator input
requires no resolution at all, which is why it doesn't wait on the
endpoint.

**Trade-off, taken knowingly:** a typo'd lane is now honoured and will
match no card. That is the milder failure. Before, a *correct* custom
lane was discarded categorically, so renamed boards could not use the
feature at all; now the only broken case is one the operator typed wrong
and can see in their own settings.

## Two existing assertions asserted the defect

```ts
expect(getNotifyColumns({ notifyOnColumns: ["nope"] })).toEqual(["in-review"]);
expect(getQuickCaptureColumn({ quickCaptureDefaultColumn: "bad-column" })).toBe("todo");
```

I checked provenance before touching them: they date to the plugin's
original commits (FN-3738 / FN-3970), when the five ids genuinely were
the whole vocabulary. They carry no reasoning comment and no later
change defended custom-lane rejection as a contract — so this is a stale
assumption being corrected, not a peer's tested decision being
overwritten. Structural rejection (non-strings, blanks, whitespace-only)
and trimming are still asserted, because that part was always right.

## Revert proof

```
AssertionError: expected [ 'in-review' ] to deeply equal [ 'checking', 'shipped' ]
AssertionError: expected [ 'todo' ] to deeply equal [ 'todo', 'spaced' ]
      Tests  2 failed | 5 passed (7)
```

## Verification (measured)

- plugin suite — **196 passed / 19 files**
- `tsc --noEmit`, `eslint` — clean
- `lifecycle-column-census --strict`, `check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

No changeset: the plugin is `private: true` and is not bundled into the
published CLI.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Same shape, last one in the family

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

## Revert results

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

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

## Verification

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

df73bbc14a fix(tests): clear the persisted Command Center sub-tab between cases (7 of 8 main reds) (#2971)
`main` is red in the dashboard backfill lane. This fixes **7 of the 8**
failures. All 8 bisect to #2420 (`4f929acc10`): parent `189f237a07`
passes 9/9, that commit fails 5.

### Cause — test-order pollution, not a product bug

#2420 made Command Center restore its sub-tab on remount, because the
view unmounts on navigation by design:

```ts
const [activeTab, setActiveTab] = useState<SubViewId>(
  () => (getCommandCenterState(projectId)?.activeTab as SubViewId | undefined) ?? "overview",
);
```

The panel's test id is derived from that tab
(`data-testid={\`command-center-panel-${activeTab}\`}`), and these files
click through to other tabs — `tokens`, `team`, `github`, `system`,
`mission-control`. Neither `beforeEach` cleared storage, so the
**first** case left `mission-control` persisted and every later case
rendered `command-center-panel-mission-control`:

```
→ Unable to find an element by: [data-testid="command-center-panel-overview"]
```

Nothing in that message points at a previous test, which is what made it
look like a component regression.

**Confirmed as ordering rather than breakage:** each failing case passes
when run alone with `-t`. The "mutation" here is `main` itself — without
the `localStorage.clear()` these files fail 7; with it, 11/11.

### Scope

Two lines plus the note explaining why they exist, so the next person
who adds a tab-switching case knows the persistence is per-project and
sticky. **No product code touched** — the persistence behaviour in #2420
is correct and stays as-is.

**Verified:** 11/11 across both files, `tsc -p tsconfig.app.json` 0
errors, lint clean, FNXC gate exit 0. Test-only, no changeset.

### The 8th failure is NOT fixed here, deliberately

`MainContent.planning-project-remount.test.tsx` fails because #2420
moved Planning out of `MainContent` (its branch now returns `null`) into
`PlanningKeepAlive`, mounted by `App.tsx`. The product side is right —
the host **is** keyed (`App.tsx:1956`):

```jsx
<PlanningKeepAlive key={`${currentProject.id}:${modalManager.planningEntryGeneration}`} … />
```

so project switches still remount and I found **no cross-project leak**.
But that test was `FNXC:ProjectSwitchModalReset` coverage for a
leak-class invariant (Planning carrying a previous project's
stream/session), and **nothing asserts it at the new location**: the
keep-alive test covers navigation reveal, not project switching, and
`App.test.tsx` has no test for the host key. Deleting that `key=` today
would fail no test.

Restoring it needs an App-level test, which is a bigger change than this
fix and worth keeping separate. Detailed on #2420.

cadf011b25 fix(dependency-graph): an allowlist of four legacy lanes rendered a blank graph on a renamed board (#2972)
## A renamed board gets a blank dependency graph

`filterGraphTasks` gated on an allowlist of four legacy lane ids:

```ts
export const INCLUDED_COLUMNS = new Set(["triage", "todo", "in-progress", "in-review"]);
export function filterGraphTasks(tasks: Task[]): Task[] {
  return tasks.filter((task) => INCLUDED_COLUMNS.has(task.column));
}
```

On a board whose lanes are named anything else — `backlog`, `building`,
`checking` — **no card matches and the graph renders completely empty**.
This is not a mislabelled node or a missing edge: the entire feature is
blank, and it reads as *"this project has no dependencies"* rather than
as a bug. `triage` is in that allowlist too, a lane U11 (#2515) deleted.

## Fix: gate on the finished lanes instead

Inverted to a denylist, so the **default is the safe one**. An
unrecognised lane is active work by assumption and renders; only lanes
that genuinely mean "finished" drop out.

An allowlist fails **closed** — hide everything unknown. A denylist
fails **open** — show it. For a graph, an extra node is a far smaller
error than no graph.

## The residual, named rather than hidden

`EXCLUDED_COLUMNS` is still two literals. `DependencyGraph.tsx` is a
client React component handed plain `Task` rows as a prop, with no async
seam to resolve a workflow IR — so a board that renames its DONE lane
still shows finished cards here. That is deliberately the mild failure
direction: "one extra node", not "no graph". It is documented in the
code rather than papered over with an optional resolved-lanes parameter
no caller could fill.

The invalid-column guard is now **explicit**. Under the allowlist,
`column: undefined` was excluded as a side effect of not being in the
set; under a denylist it would sail through, so it is checked directly
and covered.

## Revert proof

Restoring only `filters.ts`:

```
AssertionError: expected [] to deeply equal [ 'FN-1', 'FN-2', 'FN-3' ]
AssertionError: expected [] to deeply equal [ 'FN-1' ]
      Tests  2 failed | 13 passed (15)
```

Worth noting explicitly: **every pre-existing case passes either way.**
They only ever enumerate the six legacy ids, so the allowlist and the
denylist agree on all of them — no existing test could have seen this
blackout. (The new empty-string case also passes both ways; it guards
the new implementation rather than proving the fix, and I am not
claiming it as coverage of the defect.)

## Verification (measured)

- plugin suite — **183 passed / 20 files**
- `tsc --noEmit`, `eslint` — clean
- `lifecycle-column-census --strict`, `check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

## Checked and deliberately not changed

`GraphTaskNode.tsx` holds `column === "in-progress"` and `column ===
"in-review"`. Both are already audited with an in-code note, and both
degrade mildly rather than blanking anything — `hasExecutionSignal` also
ORs on `ACTIVE_STATUSES`, so a renamed WIP lane still reads as active
via status. Converting them needs column traits this component is not
given, so they stay noted rather than half-converted.

No changeset: `fusion-plugin-dependency-graph` is `private: true`.

5d01164994 test(glasses): re-green 15 agent-action tests, and revive a guard that asserted nothing (#2969)
## 15 tests have been red on `main`

`startWork`, `requestReview` and `approvePlan` gained a third `moveTask`
argument, `{ moveSource: "user" }`. The assertions in
`agent-actions.test.ts` kept the two-argument form:

```
AssertionError: expected "vi.fn()" to be called with arguments: [ 'FN-1', 'building' ]
Received: [ "FN-1", "building", + { "moveSource": "user" } ]
      Tests  15 failed | 41 passed (56)
```

Reproduces on clean `origin/main`. This suite is outside the merge gate,
which is why it went red unnoticed.

## The part that is worse than staleness

Three of these are **negative** assertions, and they did not fail — they
went **dead**. `expect(fn).not.toHaveBeenCalledWith(id, column)` cannot
match a three-argument call, so it passes whether or not the forbidden
move happened. `requestReview`'s "never lands on the legacy `in-review`"
guard has been asserting nothing since the option landed.

Verified rather than reasoned about — a scratch case, run and then
deleted:

```ts
const fn = vi.fn();
fn("FN-1", "in-review", { moveSource: "user" });          // the forbidden move HAPPENED
expect(fn).not.toHaveBeenCalledWith("FN-1", "in-review");   // old form: passes anyway ✓
```

Both cases passed, confirming the old form is vacuous and the
three-argument form throws.

## Applied per action, not uniformly

Only **3 of 5** product `moveTask` calls take the option, and the split
is deliberate:

| action | source | why |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `startWork`, `requestReview`, `approvePlan` | `{ moveSource: "user" }`
| the wearer's tap is a human gesture, matching the dashboard move route
|
| `returnToAgent`, `retryTask` | default (engine) | per the Move-Task
contract a user-source move parks the row `userPaused`, defeating the
return/retry intent |

So `returnToAgent`/`retryTask` assertions are **correct as
two-argument** and are left untouched — including their negatives, which
genuinely assert because the real call is also two-argument.

Attribution was done by scoping each assertion to its enclosing `it(`
block, not to the nearest preceding call: the latter mis-attributes the
`await expect(startWork(...)).resolves` form, which reads as `expect`.
Blocks mixing a user-source and a default-source action were excluded
from rewriting (there were none).

I did **not** "fix" the 3/5 split. It is documented in the product with
its reasoning and it matches the Move-Task contract; changing it would
be a behavior change riding in a test-only commit.

## Verification (measured)

- `agent-actions.test.ts` — **56/56 passed** (was 15 failed / 41 passed)
- full plugin suite — **192 passed / 19 files** (was 180 passed, 15
failed)
- `lifecycle-column-census --strict`, `check-sql-column-literals`,
`check-fnxc-future-dates` — green

Tests only; no product file is touched. An FNXC note now records the
arity contract and which actions take which source, so the next
assertion added here doesn't reintroduce a dead guard.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Detection is AST-based, deliberately

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

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

## Verified to fail on the recurrence

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

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

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

exit 1, naming the file and the delta.

## Placement

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

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

## Verification

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

1c19540f50 fix(glasses): the summary card reported five hardcoded lanes, so a renamed board read as empty (#2968)
## The defect

`boardSummaryCardFromCounts` built its text from five hardcoded lane
ids:

```ts
`Triage ${counts.triage} Todo ${counts.todo} Doing ${counts["in-progress"]} Review ${counts["in-review"]} Done ${counts.done}`
```

`boardSummary` seeds exactly those five keys to `0`, then counts by real
`task.column`. On a board whose lanes are named anything else, **every
interpolated value is the seeded zero** — so the summary card, which is
the first card in every deck and the entire body of `GET
/board/summary`, reads:

```
Triage 0 Todo 0 Doing 0 Review 0 Done 0
```

…while the real work sits in lanes it never mentions. The wearer is told
the board is empty.

It is also wrong on the **default** board today: U11 (#2515) deleted the
`triage` lane, so `Triage 0` is permanently dead text — 9 of the 24
characters this display gets per line.

## Why there was no test

The only summary coverage in `cards.test.ts` exercised
`boardSummaryCard`, an **export no production file calls** (its sole
caller is that test). The function the deck actually ships had none.
That gap is why five hardcoded ids survived here.

## The fix, and one deliberate choice

The lanes are derived from `counts` instead of taken as an optional
resolved-lanes parameter.

That is on purpose. This program's recurring defect is precisely the
"optional lane answer + documented literal fallback" shape shipped
without wiring the caller — `unwired-lane-parameter-guard.test.ts`
documents **five live on `main` at once**, and in four of five the
parameter was unreachable because the caller held a larger defect.
`counts` is already keyed by real `task.column` values, so the
vocabulary is in hand with **no resolution, no new plumbing, and nothing
that can be left unwired**.

Zero-count lanes are dropped so the scarce line budget goes to lanes
with work; legacy ids keep their familiar labels and order, unknown ids
sort after them alphabetically so output is deterministic. `counts`
itself is untouched — the route returns it as the API body and consumers
still see every key.

## Revert proof

Restoring only `cards.ts` fails all three new cases, printing the defect
verbatim:

```
AssertionError: expected 'Triage 0 Todo 0 Doing 0 Review 0 Done…' to contain 'backlog 2'

## Verification (measured)

- `cards.test.ts` — **8/8 passed**

## Pre-existing failure, NOT from this change

The plugin suite also has **15 failures in
`src/__tests__/agent-actions.test.ts`**. They reproduce identically on
clean `origin/main` with this branch stashed (`15 failed | 41 passed`),
so they are not caused by this PR and are not fixed by it. Flagging
separately — this suite is outside the merge gate, which is why it has
been red unnoticed.

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

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

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

For work that had already merged.

## Its sibling had already solved this

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

## One name instead of two spellings

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

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

## Revert result

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

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

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

## Verification

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

8e0219d573 fix(merger-ai): gate the no-commits dep-sync skip on the branch diff — the P1 #2501 shipped without (#2958)
## #2501 merged without its P1 fix; this is that fix, alone

#2501 has landed. Its review threads were resolved — I judged and fixed
them — but its head was a fork branch I could not push to, so **the
fixes were never in it**. Confirmed on `main` at `c1c1b964af`:

```
merger-ai.ts:902:      if (ctx.noCommitsExpected === true) {      ← bare flag, no diff gate
merge-dependency-sync.ts: export const LOCKFILE_CANDIDATES → 0 matches
```

Rebasing dropped this PR's five duplicated base commits, so it is now
**one commit**: the review fix and its regression.

## The defect on main

The dep-sync skip trusts `ctx.noCommitsExpected` alone, and **only ever
runs on a branch that has commits** — the `rev-list --count`
short-circuit ~50 lines above returns `outcome: "empty"` at zero ahead,
so control reaches it only when the branch is AHEAD.

Nothing revalidates the flag. Both downstream empty-lane guards carve
no-commits tasks out explicitly — `merger-ai.ts:1372` (#2259
already-landed proof) and `:1994` (FN-8141 executor veto) — and both
guard the *opposite* direction: commit-expected task, empty branch. The
inverse has no check.

So a task marked no-commits whose executor committed a manifest or
lockfile change gets its dependency install **and** its frozen-lockfile
validation skipped, and the change lands unvalidated.

## The fix

The flag says *look*; the branch diff decides. A `main...branch` diff
touching `package.json` or any `LOCKFILE_CANDIDATES` entry falls through
to the normal sync and emits an audit row with `skipOverridden: true`.
An unreadable diff **also** syncs — matching the hard-fail contract
documented directly above that block, rather than treating absence of
evidence as evidence of safety.

`LOCKFILE_CANDIDATES` is exported instead of duplicated, so the skip and
the installer cannot drift on what counts as a dependency change.

**Mutation-verified:** reverting to trust-the-flag fails exactly the new
case and nothing else. The existing *"lands successfully with
noCommitsExpected: true and actual changes"* case is untouched and still
passes — `feature.txt` is not a dependency file, so an ordinary source
change on a no-commits task still skips. The new case differs only in
*which* file the branch touches.

## Also carried over from the #2501 review

**coderabbit's env nit** — `process.env.X = undefined` stores the string
`"undefined"`, leaving a previously-absent var truthy and leaking into
later tests. `restoreEnv` applied at both sites.

**Both entry paths** — deferred with reasons:
`runAiMerge`/`landWorkspaceTask` sit behind real worktrees, sessions and
a merge agent, and the cheap version is a mirrored-implementation test
that cannot fail on a revert (this repo has deleted two of those). The
fix above also means propagation is no longer the only thing between a
stale flag and an unvalidated lockfile.

## A correction to my own work

My first version of the regression committed the lockfile while the
fixture had left the tree on `main`, so the `main...branch` diff could
not see it and the case **passed for the wrong reason**. Corrected, with
the reason recorded in the test.

## Verification

- `merger-ai-no-commits-deps-skip` — **5/5**, mutation-verified
- `merge-dependency-sync-lockfile-heal` — **10/10**
- engine typecheck — clean
- `pnpm lint` — clean

04159ff9ed fix(tests): three CSS-shape cases pinned modal DOM the FloatingWindow migration retired (#2967)
Two cases in `agent-modals-mobile` asserted DOM shapes that the FN-8619
`FloatingWindow` migration deliberately retired. Both are **stale
expectations, not product regressions** — established below rather than
assumed, because "delete the failing assertion" is exactly how a real
bug gets buried.

### 1. `AgentDetailView` — the suite asserted both sides of the same
fact

```js
expect(document.querySelector(".agent-detail-overlay")).toBeTruthy();   // here — RED
```
```js
expect(document.querySelector(".agent-detail-overlay")).toBeNull();     // AgentDetailView.core.test.tsx:97 — GREEN
```

No component renders that class (`grep` across `app/**/*.tsx` outside
tests: zero hits). One of these two had to be red, and the one matching
the product is the `toBeNull` sibling. This case now asserts the panel
class it is actually named for — `.agent-detail-modal`, which **is**
live and **is** what the mobile `@media` block in `AgentDetailView.css`
targets — and pins the scrim as still-retired.

I did **not** re-point the overlay half at `.floating-window-overlay`.
That would only re-assert FloatingWindow's own contract (already covered
by `FloatingWindow.test.tsx`) while saying nothing about Agent Detail
being mobile-targetable.

### 2. `AgentGenerationModal` — the class belongs to a different
component

It demanded `.agent-dialog-overlay`. That class is **still live** —
`NewAgentDialog.tsx:415` renders it — which is why the stale expectation
looked plausible and survived. But this modal is a `FloatingWindow` with
`modal` (`AgentGenerationModal.tsx:162`), so its scrim is
`.floating-window-overlay--modal`. Now asserted explicitly, because "a
modal blocks the app beneath it" is a real FN-8619 contract worth
pinning.

### Why the dead CSS is still here

`.agent-detail-overlay` has 4 CSS definitions and one inert mobile
`@media` rule. I deliberately did **not** delete them in this PR:

- Two **passing** tests (`dashboard-overflow-containment.test.tsx:295`,
`mobile-horizontal-pan-containment.test.ts:90`) pin a selector *string*
that lists `.agent-detail-overlay`. Deleting the CSS turns two green
tests red.
- That raises a question I cannot answer without rendering, and I will
not boot an instance to find out: **those containment lists do not
mention `.floating-window-overlay--modal`.** If mobile horizontal-pan
containment is meant to cover modal scrims, the migration may have moved
the scrim out from under its guard. That is a product question for
whoever owns FN-8619, and it is the substance of #2915.

Worth recording: the retired `.agent-detail-overlay { padding: 0;
align-items: stretch }` mobile rule is not a lost feature.
`.floating-window-overlay` is `position: fixed; inset: 0` with no flex
context, so those declarations have nothing to act on — FloatingWindow
positions the panel by geometry instead.

**Verified:** 22/22 in this file, `tsc -p tsconfig.app.json` 0 errors,
lint clean, FNXC gate exit 0. Test-only, no changeset.

2502878166 fix(a11y): 13 dialogs announced their role twice ("Settings dialog, dialog") (#2965)
Thirteen modals set an `aria-label` that restates the role they already
carry. `FloatingWindow` renders `role="dialog"` and
`aria-label={ariaLabel}` on the **same element**
(`FloatingWindow.tsx:628` and `:631`), so `"Settings dialog"` is
announced as **"Settings dialog, dialog."**

Fixed at all 13 call sites, plus a guard so the next copy-paste fails
instead of shipping.

### Two independent lines of evidence

I found this by inspection. Then, chasing unexplained dashboard
failures, I hit `NodesView.test.tsx`:

```
Unable to find an accessible element with the role "dialog" and name "Add Node"
  ...
  Name "Add Node dialog":
```

Two tests were already asserting the **correct** name and failing
because the product had drifted to add the suffix. So this is not a
style preference — it is a defect with pre-existing tests that were red.
**Those 2 failures go green here**, and they were among the ones I had
not yet accounted for.

### The guard was vacuous, and mutation is the only reason I know

My first version used one regex with `[^`"']*?` for the label body. It
passed. It was worthless.

Every real call site interpolates a translator call:

```jsx
ariaLabel={`${t("scripts.title", "Scripts")} dialog`}
```

Those inner **double quotes terminate the character class**, so the
pattern matched **none of the thirteen offenders**. It only matched
hand-written samples like ``{`Settings dialog`}`` that happen to contain
no quotes — which is exactly what I had put in the case table. Re-adding
the suffix to `ScriptsModal` in its original form left the suite
**green**.

Extraction is now structural (brace matching), and the case table
carries the real quote-bearing shapes, including the nested-brace
`NodeDetailModal` form and the `+ " dialog"` concatenation variant.

**Mutation now behaves:**

| state | result |
|---|---|
| clean tree | 13/13 pass |
| suffix re-added to `ScriptsModal` (faithful form) | **fails**, naming
the file and the offending value |

I would have shipped a guard that could not fail on the defect it was
written for. It is the same error the guard exists to prevent — a cheap
proxy standing in for the real measurement — so the reasoning is
recorded in the file rather than quietly fixed.

### Verified

- `NodesView` + `FloatingWindow` + the new guard: **110/110**, then
**13/13** for the guard after the rewrite
- `tsc -p tsconfig.app.json`: **0 errors** · lint clean · FNXC gate exit
0
- **No i18n key or default string changed** — all 15 `t()` keys
byte-identical across the diff; only the literal outside the call was
dropped, and the now-pointless `` {`${…}`} `` wrappers were unwrapped

### Not fixed here

`agent-modals-mobile` (2) and `core-modals-mobile` (1) still fail on
this branch — they fail identically on `main`, are CSS-structure
assertions unrelated to aria naming, and belong to the #2915
dead-`.agent-detail-overlay` family. Left alone deliberately rather than
bundled in.

No changeset: user-visible a11y correction with no API or setting
change, and the release-notes audience is operators. Say the word if you
want one.

c1c1b964af fix(dashboard): expose full permission-mapped task toolset in chat sessions (#2376)
## Bug
Chat-session tool surface missing task-mutation tools that exist outside
of chat, even when the agent's permission record grants them.\n\nRepro:
agent-09dcf8b2 (role: custom, CEO) in NextGenEHS has tasks:archive /
tasks:delete / tasks:merge / tasks:retry / tasks:update true in its
permission record with permissionPolicy.presetId = unrestricted and
task_agent_mutation = allow. Calling fn_task_archive / fn_task_delete /
fn_task_merge in chat returns: Tool fn_task_* not found.\n\nRoot cause:
packages/dashboard/src/chat.ts createChatFusionToolset() built a
hardcoded narrow chat-only allowlist while heartbeat registered the
complete lifecycle surface unconditionally.\n\nFix:\n- Add exported
factories in packages/engine/src/agent-tools.ts for missing lifecycle
tools: fn_task_archive, fn_task_unarchive, fn_task_delete,
fn_task_retry, fn_task_pause, fn_task_unpause, fn_task_duplicate,
fn_task_merge, fn_task_update, fn_task_add_dep, fn_task_promote,
fn_trait_list, fn_ask_question, fn_reflect_on_performance,
fn_read_evaluations, fn_update_identity, fn_send_message,
fn_read_messages.\n- Wire those factories into
createChatFusionToolset(). Mission/ideation mutations stay behind
missionMutationGated. Agent-scoped tools still require agentId.\n-
Re-export from packages/engine/src/index.ts.\n- Regression test:
packages/dashboard/src/__tests__/chat-toolset-permissions.test.ts (3/3
passing). Existing chat.test.ts (14/14 passing).

dd930c8d7d fix(cli): qualify cross-fork PR heads (#2377)
## Summary

- resolve the repository receiving pushes through `git remote get-url
--push origin`
- qualify pull-request head branches with the fork owner when the push
owner differs from upstream
- preserve the existing unqualified head for same-repository workflows

## Root cause

Fusion correctly resolved the PR target from origin's fetch URL, but
assumed the pushed branch lived in that same repository. With an
upstream fetch URL and a fork push URL, GitHub requires
`fork-owner:branch`; the unqualified branch is rejected.

## Validation

- CLI task lifecycle tests: 48 passed
- `@fusion/core` typecheck
- `@runfusion/fusion` typecheck
- strict changeset validation


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

pull request creation paths.
* **Tests**
* Updated and expanded lifecycle tests to cover “origin push to fork”
scenarios using push URL–based repo resolution.

4f929acc10 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).
- Known pre-existing failures NOT caused by this branch (verified
failing at base a224c1111 in a clean worktree): 7 tests in
`TaskDetailModal.oversight-controls/oversight-mobile/models-progress-workflow`.
- jsdom cannot prove rendered-grid correctness for xterm reveal; per the
plan's risk note, manual browser verification of terminal reveal remains
recommended.

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

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

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

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

## Scope

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

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

## What changed

8 bisectable commits:

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

## Review follow-ups

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

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

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

## Behavior changes requiring operator review before rollout

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

## Verification

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

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

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

### A mutation check that failed to fail

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

## Known limitations (stated, not papered over)

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

7712e0ada2 engine: merging was broken outright on a board with a renamed review lane (#2963)
**Not a degraded message — no task on such a board could be merged at
all.**

`getTaskMergeBlocker`'s column-identity check *returns a blocker* when
the task's column is not a review lane. Both merge entry points called
it without `reviewColumns`, so the check ran against the literal
`in-review`:

```
Cannot merge FN-1: task is in 'signoff', must be in 'in-review'
```

`aiMergeTask` (`merger.ts`) and `runAiMerge` (`merger-ai.ts`) turn that
into a thrown error. Every merge on a renamed board fails, with a
message naming a column the board does not have.

## This exact defect was already found once

The helper's own FNXC comment records it, in `moves.ts`:

> *"so on a renamed board that move threw `Cannot move FN-1 to done:
task is in 'signoff', must be in 'in-review'` even though the transition
had just been validated as legal. A half-conversion, where the outer
question is resolved and the inner one is not."*

That fix added the `reviewColumns` option and wired `moves.ts`. **These
two callers were missed** — same shape, one layer out. A fix that adds
an optional parameter is only as good as the call-site sweep that
follows it.

## How it was found

By enumerating the call sites of every lane-taking helper, rather than
trusting the `unwired-lane-parameter` guard. That guard is deliberately
conservative — a mention of the parameter *anywhere* satisfies it — so
**partial** wiring is invisible to it, and `reviewColumns` is mentioned
plentifully elsewhere. This is the method #2956 used on a sibling
defect, applied to every seam I have touched.

## Two sites deliberately unchanged

- **`moves.ts`** passes `skipColumnIdentityCheck: true`. It has already
proven lane identity from resolved IR traits, so supplying lanes *as
well* would be contradictory rather than additive — the helper's comment
is explicit that the two options answer different questions.
- **`isTaskReadyForMerge`** has **zero** production callers. Adding a
parameter there is precisely the unwired-parameter anti-pattern this
program keeps removing.

## Revert result

| | reverted → |
| --- | --- |
| `reviewColumns` at either call | reproduces the shipped string exactly
|

The middle test pins that string deliberately: it is the
operator-visible failure, so if the wiring regresses the test says what
the operator would have seen. A third case checks that supplying lanes
does **not** switch the identity check off — a card in the wip lane is
still blocked, and the message names the resolved lanes rather than a
column the board lacks.

The cases drive `getTaskMergeBlocker` directly: reaching it through the
merge entry points needs a real repo, worktree and merge run, while the
defect is entirely in *which columns the blocker is asked about*. The
wiring itself is covered by tsc and the guard.

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 487 + 13 + 71; `merger` + `merger-ai` +
`self-healing` suites 461; `tsc` engine clean; lint, census `--strict`,
FNXC gate, changesets all clean.

8d6acf1314 fix(RUFU-018): add noCommitsExpected dep-sync skip and corepack/pnpm env passthrough (#2501)
Manually land RUFU-018 fix bypassing the AI merge pipeline.

## Summary
- Add `noCommitsExpected` flag to `LandRepoContext`; skip dependency
sync when set
- Forward `COREPACK_HOME`/`PNPM_HOME`/`npm_config_registry` in
`installWorktreeDependencies`
- Add comprehensive tests for both changes

This unblocks all downstream RUFU audit tasks.

## Surface Enumeration
- Providers/bridges: `installWorktreeDependencies` called from
`landOneRepo` (AI merge) and legacy `merger.ts`; `landOneRepo` called
from `runAiMerge` and `landWorkspaceTask`
- Data states: `noCommitsExpected` can be `true`, `false`, or
`undefined` — both callers use `=== true` strict check

## Summary by CodeRabbit

- **New Features**
- Improved support for tasks that do not produce commits by skipping
unnecessary dependency installation during merges.
- Preserved normal merge and review behavior when dependency

01f081e8aa engine: restore the stall-signal lane wiring #2951 dropped (and the test that proved it) (#2961)
**My defect, shipped in #2951 — and the same family as the one #2956
just fixed.** Found by auditing my own seams after that, not by a
failing check.

## What is on `main` right now

`surfaceInReviewStalls` reads the project's review columns (converted in
#2951), then calls `getInReviewStallReason` **without** `reviewColumns`.
The classifier falls back to the literal `in-review`, returns no signal
for a renamed-lane card, and the sweep surfaces nothing.

That is the textbook **missed pair** this program has a ratchet for: a
widened read handing every renamed-board card to a literal classifier.
The resolve work happens and is then discarded. On a renamed board an
operator sees no stall warnings at all.

#2951's conflict resolution dropped two things together:
- the per-card `stallLanes` map and the `reviewColumns` argument
- **the test that proved the wiring**

## Why nothing caught it

**A deleted test cannot fail.** I verified that rebase by comparing the
68 conflict *hunks* — stripping FNXC stamps, confirming 0 of 68 had real
content differences — and then ran the gate. The gate passed precisely
because the proving test had gone with the code it proved.

I verified the conflicts. I did not verify the outcome. Those are
different things, and the difference is invisible when the evidence
disappears alongside the feature.

The `unwired-lane-parameter` guard cannot catch this either, by design:
it is deliberately conservative — a mention of the parameter *anywhere*
satisfies it — so **partial** wiring is outside its reach.
`reviewColumns` is mentioned plenty in `reads.ts`, so the guard is green
while this call site goes unwired.

## How I found it

The check #2956 used on the sibling defect, applied to every lane seam I
have touched: enumerate each function's **call sites** and confirm each
one carries the parameter. That enumeration also flags several other
call sites without `reviewColumns`/lane arguments (`merger.ts`,
`moves.ts`, `auto-merge-finalization.ts`, `merger-ai.ts`,
`project-engine.ts`) — I have **not** touched those here; they need
per-site judgement about whether the lane answer is even available, and
that is a separate change rather than a sweep.

## Revert result

| | reverted → |
| --- | --- |
| `reviewColumns` at the call (i.e. exactly what #2951 shipped) | fails
the restored test |

## Verification

`pnpm test:gate` 161 + 487 + 13 + 71; blindness suite 71;
`self-healing.test.ts` 412; `tsc` engine clean; lint, census `--strict`,
FNXC gate, changesets all clean.

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

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

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

### Why this stayed hidden

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

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

### One thing to know if you repeat this

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

### Scope

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

fd795883c5 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.

e6e70a2562 test(engine): delete two temp-cleanup mechanisms guarding a leak the harness already prevents (#2960)
`scheduler-paused-dispatch-refusal.test.ts` carried **two** tracking
arrays and **two** `afterEach` hooks, both collecting the same
`mkdtempSync` path and removing it twice. One was added per review round
on #2779 — I wrote both, and neither round noticed the other.

The obvious fix is to merge them into one. **I checked whether the leak
was real first, and it isn't.**

### Measured

`packages/core/src/__test-utils__/vitest-setup.ts` **redirects
`os.tmpdir()`** to a per-worker sink and sweeps it by owning pid. So
`tmpdir()` inside a test does not resolve to the real temp root at all.
Probing the paths this file actually creates:

```
/var/folders/.../T/fusion-test-workers-8Tv8um/redir-5845/fusion-paused-dispatch-ZUhUVL
```

| run | fixtures created | left behind |
|---|---|---|
| cleanup as shipped | 4 | 0 |
| **cleanup disabled** | 4 | **0** |

The sink is reclaimed either way. Both mechanisms were appeasing a
review comment about a problem that could not occur.

### Why deleted rather than merged

A cleanup that cannot be observed to clean anything is not a cheap
safety net — it is a claim the file cannot back, and it misreports which
layer owns temp lifetime. Keeping one "just in case" would leave the
next reader believing this file manages its own fixtures. If the
redirect is ever removed, cleanup belongs in the shared setup for
**every** test, not re-added file by file. An FNXC note records the
measurement and says exactly that, so a third round doesn't re-add a
third copy.

### A note on my own measurement

My first check was `ls $TMPDIR/fusion-paused-dispatch-*` before and
after — it reported zero leaked with cleanup **on**, which I nearly took
as "cleanup works." It also reported zero with cleanup **off**. That
contradiction is the only reason I looked further; the glob was
measuring a directory the fixtures never reach. The before/after count
would have "confirmed" a working cleanup just as readily as a redundant
one.

**Verified:** 4/4 pass, `tsc` 0 errors, lint clean, FNXC gate exit 0.
Test-only, no product change, no changeset.

3461ae7a92 docs(gate): record why the SQL-literal gate deliberately does not scan .sql (#2957)
Comment-only. No behavior change.

## Why this is worth a commit

#2954 fixed the FNXC-date gate's walk: its extension filter listed the
file types stamps were **expected** in rather than the ones they
**occur** in, so it was blind to `.sql` and `.css`. That is a tempting
pattern to generalize, and `check-sql-column-literals.mjs` is the
obvious next candidate — a gate about *SQL* column literals that scans
only `.tsx?`.

Applying the same fix here would be wrong, and quietly so.

## The two gates are not the same kind of tool

The FNXC gate is a plain-text regex scanner, so widening its extension
list is trivially correct. This one is **AST-based**:
`ts.createSourceFile(..., ScriptKind.TSX)` followed by a walk over
string and template nodes.

A `.sql` file is not TypeScript. Adding the extension would not widen
coverage — it would feed DDL to the TS parser and traverse whatever
lenient-mode nodes fell out. The gate would then **report coverage it
does not have**, which is strictly worse than not looking, because the
silence would read as "SQL is clean."

## Measured before deciding

38 tracked `.sql` files contain exactly one lifecycle-looking literal:

```
0022_ideation.sql:19  CONSTRAINT ideation_sessions_status_check
                      CHECK (status IN ('open','converged','archived'))
```

That is the **ideation-session** status enum — a different domain that
happens to reuse the word — not a `tasks.column` comparison, and not
something this gate would flag even if it could parse the file. **Zero
real offenders.**

So the honest scope is recorded as: raw SQL is **unwatched**, and the
trigger that would make it worth watching is a data backfill (`UPDATE
tasks SET column = ...`) landing in a migration. If that ever happens it
needs a separate raw-text matcher against the exported `COMPARISON`, not
an entry in the extension filter.

## Verification

- `check-sql-column-literals` → exit 0
- `check-fnxc-future-dates` → exit 0, "478 known, none added" (the new
stamp is dated today, local)
- `scripts/__tests__/check-sql-column-literals.test.mjs` → **26 pass, 0
fail**
- `scripts/__tests__/check-inert-flag-seams.test.mjs` → **12 pass, 0
fail**
- `eslint` clean

## Why a comment rather than a doc

Per AGENTS.md, decisions of this shape belong next to the code they
constrain. The failure mode is specifically someone reading the walk,
noticing `.sql` is missing, and "fixing" it — so the note has to be at
the filter, where that person is looking, not in `docs/solutions/`.

6c1f074773 fix(core): the in-review stall signal never got the board's review lanes — 0 of 4 call sites (#2956)
## Main is red, and the red is pointing at a real defect

`unwired-lane-parameter-guard` fails on `origin/main` after #2951. This
is not a stale allow-list — the parameter genuinely never reaches the
function.

#2951 added `reviewColumns?: ReadonlySet<string>` to three signal
modules and wired two of them completely. **`getInReviewStallReason` was
wired at none of its four call sites.** Measured by brace-matching each
call's option literal:

```
getInReviewStallReason      L227=NO   L390=NO   L599=NO   L729=NO
getInReviewStalledSignal    all 4 wired
getStalePausedReviewSignal  both wired
```

## The user-visible consequence

`reads.ts` computes two adjacent signals for the same card. On a board
declaring a **separate merge lane beside its human-review lane**,
`inReviewStall` read the *first* review column only, while
`inReviewStalled` — three lines below — read the *set*.

**The same card is "in review" for one signal and not the other.** Two
signals disagreeing is worse than both being legacy, and it is invisible
on every builtin board because there the review set has exactly one
element.

At three of the four sites the resolve sat *below* the call, which is
why the parameter could not be passed. Those are hoisted.

## I have to correct my own earlier report

On #2951 I said *"3 of 4 call sites wired, `reads.ts:227` is the gap."*
**That was wrong.** I had measured with a 12-line proximity grep, which
bled into the adjacent `getInReviewStalledSignal` call and counted its
`reviewColumns:` as the first call's. Brace-matching the literal shows 0
of 4. The defect was four times larger than I reported, and the cause
was exactly the anti-pattern I have spent this session filing against
other people's guards — a proximity window standing in for structure.

## Naming the context types

The guard keys an interface member to its **owner symbol** and only
counts a mention from a file that also names that owner, so passing the
property inline reads as unwired even when every site supplies it.
`satisfies InReviewStalledContext` / `satisfies
StalePausedReviewContext` on the option literals is real type-checking,
not a decorative import — lint rejected the decorative version,
correctly.

## New test, because the existing guard cannot see this

Measured: **deleting the `reviewColumns:` line from a fixed call site
leaves `unwired-lane-parameter-guard` at 9/9 green**, because the file
still names the type. So the wiring I just fixed had no coverage at all.

The new ratchet brace-matches each call site's option literal:

| mutation | result |
|---|---|
| remove lanes from one call site | **1 failed** — *"1 of 4
getInReviewStallReason call sites omit reviewColumns"* |

It also asserts it **found** call sites before checking them — a parse
that matched nothing would be vacuous, which is the failure mode this
guard family keeps producing. (It caught me mid-change too: an earlier
scripted edit left the file syntactically invalid and the source-text
test still passed 3/3. It is a wiring ratchet, not a substitute for
`tsc`.)

## Verification

Core **4861 passed / 0 failed** · guard **9/9** with `KNOWN_UNWIRED`
**unchanged** · `pnpm test:gate` **exit 0** · lint clean · core `tsc`
**0 errors**.
