Taken after asking twice for reassignment with no reply, and after the same failure bit a **third** time. No open PR touches the census CLI, so this is unowned in practice — **U12, say so if you have started and I will close this in favour of yours.** ## What changed A **drop** now tightens the baseline instead of failing. Failing hard was defensible in isolation — a stale allowance is a hole, since those guards can return up to the old count while the check stays green. What it missed: **The drop is almost never the failing author's to fix.** Eleven files dropped during one merge wave, none of those PRs re-recorded, and none of their authors did anything wrong. Measured three times since CI began gating this: `columnRoles.ts` 0 → 1, then `executor.ts` twice. A permanently-red gate is a bigger hole than a stale allowance, because it gets ignored and then nothing is guarded at all. **The rise check — the ratchet's actual purpose — is untouched and still fails hard.** ## The residual, named rather than glossed In CI the write is discarded with the runner, so the committed baseline stays stale until someone commits a tightened one. The exposure is bounded (regrowth only up to the old count), printed on every run, and strictly smaller than the exposure from a check people route around. `--strict --exact` restores hard failure for the pinned end state. **One writer:** the write is now a named `writeBaseline()` shared by the tighten path and `--update-baseline`, rather than a second `writeFileSync`. Two writers for one artifact is how they drift — a lesson this file already learned once. ## Exercised end to end | scenario | result | |---|---| | drop, `--strict` | exit **0**, `TIGHTENED`, allowance rewritten 9 → 6 | | drop, `--strict --exact` | exit **1**, baseline untouched | | rise, `--strict` | exit **1** | | clean | exit **0** | Pinned through the real CLI with an isolated baseline. Revert proof: restoring the hard failure fails **1 of 32**. ## Two of my own mistakes, recorded **A vacuous assertion, in the case that guards against vacuity.** I first wrote `expect(allowedAfter).toBeLessThan(4 + allowedAfter)` — true for every number. Replaced with a comparison against the inflated value the fixture started from. This file documents that trap repeatedly and I still walked into it, which is the argument for the mechanical revert check over careful reading. **The env override is `FUSION_CENSUS_BASELINE_PATH`**, not the `FUSION_CENSUS_BASELINE` I used in the first draft — so the first version of these cases silently ran against the **real** baseline and passed for the wrong reason. A test whose fixture never took effect is the same failure as a test whose fixture can't fail. ## Verification 32/32 census suites, `pnpm test:gate` **71/71**, `--strict` exits 0, `pnpm lint` clean, `docs/testing.md` updated. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --- ## Update — the base-ref ratchet (review round 2, commit `4895845579`) The first version of this PR shipped a **named residual**: the tightening write dies with the CI runner, so the committed allowance stays high and a later PR can regrow guards up to it while `--strict` prints green. I called the exposure bounded and moved on. Greptile flagged it P1 and was right — naming a hole is not closing one. `--strict` now stops trusting the committed number for files the branch touched. It measures each **changed** file at the base commit (`FUSION_CENSUS_BASE_REF`, else the PR base branch, else `origin/main`) and fails if the file carries more guards than the base ref has. **The enforced ceiling is what main has today**, so a stale, missing, or long-unrecorded baseline no longer opens a window. | decision | why | |---|---| | changed files only, `<ref>...HEAD` | untouched files have main's counts by construction; censusing all ~400 at the base ref is ~400 `git show` calls to re-derive numbers that cannot have moved. Three-dot also stops charging this branch for guards that landed on main after the fork. | | a new file's base allowance is **0** | "absent at the base ref" as unbounded would make a new file the cheapest place to hide a fresh guard | | fails **open** on an unresolvable ref, printing `SKIPPED` | a shallow clone cannot produce an honest comparison; a degraded run must not read as a clean one. The baseline comparison still applies. | | merged into the existing `regressions` list | one failure per file, and `--update-baseline` keeps working as the deliberate escape hatch. No new exit path. | **Revert proof, measured both ways.** With the base-ref block removed, the regrowth fixture — base commit 2 guards, HEAD 5, baseline allowing 9 — exits **0** with `TIGHTENED`, which is precisely the reported scenario. With it: exit **1**, `column-guard count ROSE`, `above its count on the base ref`, baseline left at 9. **3 of the 4** end-to-end cases go red on revert. The fourth passes without the fix by design — it is the genuine-conversion case the auto-tighten exists to keep green, and a case that reddens either way proves nothing. The end-to-end suite builds a throwaway two-commit `git init` repo under the temp dir, because this exploit is a property of the **plumbing**, not of the comparison: resolving a ref, working out the changed set, reading base source through `git show`. The comparator itself is pure with the reader injected (`findRegrowthAgainstBase`), with its own cases in `lifecycle-column-census-ast.test.ts` — including the one that would silently pass everything, looking up the wrong key in `summarize().byFile`. **Rebased onto `origin/main` @ bc782d8d92** (the branch was forked before the recent merge wave; its baseline read 746 against a tree of 722). Verification on the rebased branch: census **722** / `--strict` exit 0 · **70/70** across both census suites · `pnpm test:gate` **71/71** · `pnpm lint` clean. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Fusion
From rough idea to production code — automatically.
🏭 A software factory, run by a multi-agent orchestrator.
Describe what you want — a team of AI agents plans, builds, reviews, and ships it for you. Fusion is your software factory: an assembly line for code that runs across tasks, agents, missions, git, files, and worktrees, with any model, local or cloud.
runfusion.ai → · Docs · GitHub · npm · Discord
English · 简体中文 · 繁體中文 · Français · Español · 한국어
Your entire dev environment. On a single pane of glass.
Describe a task in plain language. A planning agent reads your project, understands context, and writes a full PROMPT.md plan — steps, file scope, acceptance criteria. Then Fusion plans, reviews, executes, and reviews again, in an isolated git worktree, with a human approval gate wherever you want one.
One board. Controlled from anywhere. Laptop, Mac mini, Linux server, cloud VM, phone — all connected.
Like Trello, but your tasks get specified, executed, and delivered by AI. Built on the great work of dustinbyrne/kb.
Quick start
Zero install, straight from npm:
npx runfusion.ai
That launches the dashboard. Subcommands forward through: npx runfusion.ai task create "fix X", npx runfusion.ai --help, etc. (Or verbosely: npx @runfusion/fusion dashboard.)
One-line installer (macOS & Linux — auto-picks Homebrew, falls back to npm):
curl -fsSL https://runfusion.ai/install.sh | sh
fusion dashboard
Homebrew (macOS & Linux):
brew install runfusion/fusion/fusion
fusion dashboard # or: fn dashboard
Fully-qualified install auto-taps and, on Homebrew 6.0+, trusts only the Fusion formula. If you already ran brew tap runfusion/fusion and short-name install fails with “untrusted tap”, run brew trust --formula runfusion/fusion/fusion then brew install fusion.
npm global:
npm install -g @runfusion/fusion
fn dashboard # or: fusion dashboard
From a clone (for development):
pnpm dev dashboard
Then click the Open: URL printed in the terminal. It embeds a bearer token
(http://localhost:4040/?token=fn_...) that the browser captures to
localStorage on first visit and reuses automatically thereafter. On the
server side, Fusion now persists the dashboard/daemon token in
~/.fusion/settings.json on first authenticated run and reuses it on later
starts unless you override it (--token, FUSION_DASHBOARD_TOKEN,
FUSION_DAEMON_TOKEN) or disable auth with --no-auth. See
CLI reference → fn dashboard → Authentication
for full precedence and reset/revocation options.
First-run setup
On first launch, Fusion opens the onboarding wizard with three guided steps:
- AI Setup — Use a simplified quick-start provider list (recommended providers plus any already-connected providers), then expand Advanced provider settings only if you need additional providers or setup details. You only need one provider to get started. Deprecated Google Gemini CLI / Antigravity provider entries are intentionally hidden; Google/Gemini API key, Google Generative AI, Vertex, and Cloud Code paths remain supported.
- GitHub (Optional) — Connect GitHub for issue import and PR management
- First Task — Create your first task or import from GitHub (if no project is active, onboarding first prompts you to register/select a project directory)
The wizard is dismissible and non-blocking — click Skip for now to use the dashboard immediately. Re-trigger it later from Settings → Authentication → Reopen onboarding guide.

The flow
① Describe ② Planning ③ The board ④ Isolated worktree
───────────── ───────────── ───────────── ─────────────────────
"Add dark mode → Agent writes → Plan → Review → → fusion/FN-123 branch
toggle to PROMPT.md Execute → Review concurrent, zero
settings panel" (steps, scope, (per step, until file conflicts
acceptance) done)
See every step, before the merge
Every task shows its plan, its reviews, its diffs, and its file changes in real time. Jump into an active task and nudge direction, tighten constraints, pause, or re-prompt.
What makes it different
| 🧠 AI planning | Describe a task in plain language. Planning agents turn it into a PROMPT.md plan with steps, file scope, and acceptance criteria. |
| 🔁 Selectable workflows | Built-ins cover coding, quick fixes, review-heavy work, stepwise execution, plugin-gated Compound Engineering, and PR lifecycle fragments. Pick a workflow per task or author custom ones in the Workflow Editor. |
| 🛡️ Planner oversight | Per-task or per-workflow oversight level (off / observe / steer / autonomous) governs how closely a planner overseer watches and intervenes — merge/PR and destructive actions always require explicit human confirmation. See Settings Reference and Dashboard Guide. |
| 🌳 Worktree isolation | Each task runs in its own branch and worktree (fusion/{task-id}). Parallel tasks. Zero conflicts. Optional worktrunk delegation via worktrunk.enabled (see WorktreeBackend abstraction). |
| 🗄️ PostgreSQL by default | Fusion uses zero-config embedded PostgreSQL for local runtime metadata. Legacy SQLite files are one-time migration inputs only; use a shared external database for multi-project and multi-node setups. (Storage) |
| ⚡ Smart merge controls | Passing every gate? Fusion squash-merges and moves on. Opt into manual approval anywhere, inherit the live global auto-merge default, or set explicit per-task auto/manual overrides. |
| 🛰️ Multi-node mesh | Laptop, Mac mini, Linux server, cloud VM, phone — all synced. Desktop, mobile, web. |
| 🧩 Any model | Anthropic, OpenAI, Ollama, Google Generative AI, Z.ai, Kimi K3, local runtimes, and user-defined custom providers. Local and cloud coexist, with workflow model/fallback lanes configurable per project. |
| 🏢 Agent companies | Import pre-built teams — 440+ agents across 16 companies — and run them autonomously for weeks. |
| 📬 Inter-agent messaging | Built-in mailbox between agents. Delegate, clarify, coordinate; engineer-role agents can opt into backlog auto-claim when you want implementation help beyond executor-only pickup. |
| 🗨️ Agent chat | Direct chat, task chat that proactively narrates step progress, failures, and review outcomes, attachments, in-chat question cards, resumable streams, and experimental multi-agent Chat Rooms where mentioned members respond directly and ambient members can join up to a cap. (Chat docs) |
| 🗺️ Missions | Hierarchical planning (Mission → Milestone → Slice → Feature → Task) with autopilot and validation contracts. |
| 🔬 Research | Bounded research runs with web search, GitHub, local docs, and LLM synthesis (plus runtime builtin WebSearch/WebFetch support in planning + synthesis flows when available). Turn findings into tasks. (Docs) |
| 🧪 Self-improvement | Agents reflect on their own output and update their prompts as they learn your codebase. |
| 🔓 Open source. MIT. | No vendor lock-in. Run it on your own hardware. Shipping weekly. |
See it in action
The newest surfaces in Fusion, at a glance — the live board, your agent team, mission control, visual workflows, agent chat, multi-agent rooms, and inter-agent mail.
📋 The board & your agent team — live, from a real fleet
Every task, every column, every step — live. Cards carry GitHub links, step counts, review levels, and promote/move/archive actions. Switch to the Graph view to see task dependencies as an interactive node graph:
![]() Board — kanban columns |
![]() Graph — dependency map |
Here is the same fleet re-skinned into the Ember theme (dark graphite with an orange accent), alongside the Agents roster:
![]() Board — Ember |
![]() Agents — Tokyo Night |
Import a team and every agent shows up here — role, reports-to chain, heartbeat, and token share. Each agent card's heartbeat dropdown shows Disabled when scheduling is persisted off; choose Disabled to pause heartbeats while retaining its cadence, or select an interval to re-enable them. The Agents roster in Ember:
🛰️ Command Center — mission control for your agent fleet
One screen for everything your agents are doing. Tune live scheduler capacity, watch token spend by model in real time, and prove the value with hard numbers. The Overview tab opens with live gauges and charts:
Every tab is a different lens on the same live fleet:
Tokens · Tools · Activity · Productivity · Team · Ecosystem · GitHub · Signals · System · Reliability · Mission Control — every tab is a different lens on the same live fleet.
The same fleet, your way — Command Center (and the whole dashboard) re-skins live across 70+ color themes, including Cobalt, Clay, and Moss. Here it is in Shadcn Light, Shadcn Dark Gray, and Ember:

🔁 Selectable workflows, authored visually
A task's journey from idea to merge is a workflow — and it's yours to choose and shape. Pick a built-in (Coding, Quick fix, Review-heavy, Stepwise, PR lifecycle, Compound engineering, and more), inspect its graph, then duplicate and customize columns, gates, model lanes, and review policy in the visual Workflow Editor. No engine fork required.
Here's the Stepwise coding graph — plan, execute, and review every step before the next — explored node-by-node in Shadcn Light, Dark Gray, and Ember:

Tasks with dependencies are processed sequentially. Independent tasks run in parallel. Optionally require manual approval before tasks move from Planning to Todo (requirePlanApproval setting).
Workflow overview
Fusion workflows define how a task moves from idea to delivery. The default coding path is still the familiar Plan/Triage → Execute → Workflow steps → Review → Merge loop, but the policy now lives in a selectable workflow rather than being only hard-coded engine behavior.
- Select per task: choose a workflow from the dashboard task/board workflow controls, or assign one through
fn_workflow_select/workflow_idwhen creating tasks. - Built-in catalog: Coding (
builtin:coding), Quick fix (builtin:quick-fix), Review-heavy (builtin:review-heavy), Compound engineering (builtin:compound-engineering, plugin-gated), Stepwise coding (builtin:stepwise-coding), and the PR lifecycle (builtin:pr-workflow, a reusable PR graph fragment). - Customize safely: inspect built-ins, duplicate them, or author custom workflows in the visual Workflow Editor. Workflow-specific settings cover model lanes, review/approval policy, step execution knobs, task fields, and columns.
Read Workflow Steps for runtime semantics, built-in workflow behavior, and workflow-step templates; read Workflow Editor for the dashboard authoring guide.
Planner oversight
Each workflow (and optionally each task) can set a planner oversight level — off, observe, steer, or autonomous (default) — controlling how closely a planner overseer watches and intervenes in that task's execution. Even at autonomous, merge/PR progression and any destructive or external-service side effect always require an explicit, recorded human confirmation before they run. Notification verbosity is controlled separately. Set the default in the Workflow Editor → Values tab, or override per task from the New Task dialog / Task Detail edit form. Read Settings Reference for the full setting semantics and Dashboard Guide for the UI controls.
Multi-node. One board. Every platform.
Laptop, Mac mini, Linux server, cloud VM, phone — every node is a peer. Your task state, agents, logs, and diffs stay synchronized across the mesh. The same Fusion ships as:
- 🖥️ Desktop app — Electron for macOS (Intel + Apple Silicon), Windows 10/11, and Linux
- 📱 Mobile app — Capacitor for iOS/iPadOS and Android (MOBILE.md)
- 🌐 Web dashboard — any modern browser, served from the
fn dashboarddaemon - 🔌 CLI —
fnbinary + extension for terminal-first workflows
Start the daemon on any node, connect your other devices, and the board follows you everywhere.
Run an agent company
Import a team. Run it autonomously for weeks. 440+ agents across 16 companies, wired for missions, mailboxes, and inter-agent delegation.
npx companies.sh add paperclipai/companies/gstack
Compatible with the tools you already use.
Fusion integrates with the tools you love. Hermes, Paperclip, and OpenClaw all ship as first-class plugins — route any workspace to whichever runtime fits the task. And any Paperclip agent-company imports with a single command.
Hermes experimental
Nous Research
The open-source autonomous agent from Nous Research. Install the Hermes plugin and run agents through Hermes for long-running, context-growing work — route any Fusion workspace to it.
OpenClaw experimental
OpenClaw runtime support is available as an experimental plugin (fusion-plugin-openclaw-runtime) for runtime discovery/configuration parity. Configure agents with runtimeConfig.runtimeHint: "openclaw" after installing the plugin.
Paperclip experimental
paperclip.ing
The human control plane for AI labor. Install the Paperclip plugin to run agents through Paperclip inside Fusion.
Fusion also natively supports the companies.sh agent-company standard: import a prebuilt team — 440+ agents across 16 companies — and let them coordinate over Fusion's mailbox, missions, and workflow gates for weeks of autonomous work. Same company format, same agents, same skills as Paperclip.
npx companies.sh add paperclipai/companies/gstack
Hermes, Paperclip, and OpenClaw are experimental runtime plugins — APIs and wire formats may shift between minor releases.

- Missions — Hierarchical planning (Mission → Milestone → Slice → Feature → Task) with autopilot, validation contracts, fix-feature retries, mission-goal linking, and blocked-handoff semantics
- Multi-Project — Manage multiple projects from a single installation with project isolation
- Custom Providers — Add OpenAI-compatible, OpenAI Responses, Anthropic-compatible, or Google Generative AI providers; saved models appear in Project Models and workflow model dropdowns (Dashboard Guide; settings shape)
- Smart merge controls — Global auto-merge stays live for default tasks, while explicit per-task overrides can force auto/manual behavior (Settings Reference)
- Inter-Agent Messaging — Built-in messaging for coordination between agents and users; engineer-role agents can opt into backlog auto-claim for implementation tasks (Settings Reference)
- Agent Chat + Chat Rooms — Direct/task chat supports attachments, resumable streams, question response cards, and renameable conversations; experimental rooms route mentioned members as direct responders with optional ambient replies (Dashboard Guide → Chat View)
Provider authentication
Fusion supports OAuth-based authentication for AI providers configured via Settings → Authentication. For most OAuth providers, when the dashboard is accessed via a non-localhost host (remote node, LAN host/IP, or reverse proxy), provider login URLs are rewritten to route OAuth callbacks through a bridge endpoint (/api/auth/oauth-callback) so redirects reach the active browser session.
- Anthropic (Claude) — Uses a pasted authorization-code flow in Settings/onboarding: sign in, then paste the final redirect URL (or code) back into Fusion to complete login
- OpenAI Codex — Uses the same pasted authorization-code flow with secure state validation
- Factory AI — via Droid CLI (optional) — requires local Droid CLI install +
droid auth login; detection follows the effective runtime binary path (defaultdroid, or plugindroidBinaryPathwhen configured), then enable in Settings → Authentication and restart Fusion - llama.cpp — via HTTP server (optional) — configure your llama.cpp server URL (default
http://127.0.0.1:8080) and optional API key, then enable in Settings → Authentication - Other providers — Authenticate via API key entry in Settings (including Google/Gemini API key, Google Generative AI, Vertex, and Cloud Code aliases)
- Custom providers — Add user-defined OpenAI-compatible, OpenAI Responses, Anthropic-compatible, or Google Generative AI endpoints from Settings → Authentication → Custom Providers; saved model IDs become selectable in project and workflow model lanes (Dashboard Guide)
Model system
Fusion uses a dual-scope model hierarchy with independent lanes. Global settings define baseline defaults; project settings provide per-project overrides.
| Lane | Purpose | Global Baseline Keys | Project Override Keys |
|---|---|---|---|
| Executor | Task execution agent | executionGlobalProvider + executionGlobalModelId |
executionProvider + executionModelId |
| Planning | Task planning agent | planningGlobalProvider + planningGlobalModelId |
planningProvider + planningModelId |
| Validator | Plan/code reviewer | validatorGlobalProvider + validatorGlobalModelId |
validatorProvider + validatorModelId |
| Merger | Merge conflict / clean-room merge agent | mergerGlobalProvider + mergerGlobalModelId |
mergerProvider + mergerModelId |
| Title Summarization | Auto-title generation | titleSummarizerGlobalProvider + titleSummarizerGlobalModelId |
titleSummarizerProvider + titleSummarizerModelId |
| Workflow Step Refinement | AI prompt refinement | (uses defaultProvider/defaultModelId) |
(uses modelProvider/modelId on WorkflowStep) |
Workflow lanes: The default workflow exposes Plan/Triage, Executor, Reviewer, and fallback model lanes in Settings → Project Models, and advanced workflow settings can declare additional typed model/policy values (Settings Reference).
Per-Task Overrides: Quick Add and Inline Create let tasks override the planning, executor, validator, and merger lanes; planning, validator, and merger selections also support task-specific thinking levels. (modelProvider/modelId, validatorModelProvider/validatorModelId, planningModelProvider/planningModelId, and merger model/thinking overrides.)
Precedence: Per-task → Project override → Global lane → defaultProvider/defaultModelId → Automatic resolution.
For full settings documentation, see Settings Reference.
Scheduled tasks / automations
Fusion supports scheduled task automation via the /api/automations endpoints. Automations can run shell commands or multi-step workflows on a configurable schedule.
Scheduling scope
Automations and routines can run in two scopes:
- Global — Runs across all projects. Use this for cross-project maintenance, backups, or unified reporting.
- Project — Runs only within a specific project. Use this for project-specific CI, testing, or deployment tasks.
When you create a schedule without choosing a scope, Fusion defaults to project scope with the default project ID for backward compatibility.
To explicitly target a scope:
- In the dashboard Scheduled Tasks modal, use the Global / Project toggle.
- Via the API, pass
?scope=globalor?scope=project&projectId=<id>on automation/routine endpoints.
Scope resolution rules:
scope=globalalways resolves to the global automation/routine lane, independent of the active project.scope=projectrequires aprojectId. If omitted, it falls back to"default".- CRUD, run, toggle, and webhook operations are strictly scope-isolated: a global schedule cannot be mutated from a project-scoped request, and vice versa.
Operational guidance for multi-project setups:
- Prefer global schedules for shared infrastructure (e.g., nightly backups, memory insight extraction).
- Prefer project schedules for per-repository automation (e.g., per-project test runners, deployment hooks).
- Global and project lanes are polled independently by the engine, so due runs in one lane do not block the other.
