Two verified low-risk fixes found while reviewing everything merged 2026-08-18 (4905c06..HEAD):

  1. crates/flare-git-core/src/shell.rs::run_in_lines_bounded spawns Command::new(git_binary()) but never called apply_filtered_path, unlike every sibling git-spawn site PR fix(git-core): apply filtered PATH to spawned git commands, fixing E2BIG #537 wired it through (run_in, diff, worktree.rs::run_output_timeout, snapshot.rs::run_git_with_index). On a daemon with a PATH bloated by repeated dispatches, this call site could still hit E2BIG — the exact regression fix(git-core): apply filtered PATH to spawned git commands, fixing E2BIG #537's own new test was written to catch, just not for this function.

  2. src/dashboard/orphan_reconcile.rs::restore_ready_for_work added the ready-for-work label before restoring assignee_agent, via two separate non-transactional DB calls. If the second call failed after the first committed, the item was left labeled ready-for-work with assignee_agent unset — reproducing item perf(memory): approximate nearest neighbor vector search (Phase 4) #150's bug via a new failure window. Reordered so assignee_agent is restored before the label is added.

Both verified: cargo build -p flare-git-core --lib and cargo build --lib pass clean; cargo test -p flare-git-core --lib shell:: (11 passed) and cargo test --bin agentflare orphan_reconcile (6 passed) both green.

Two other findings from the same review (a rotation-counter concern and an opencode-usage-fallback reachability concern in src/cli/work.rs::resolve_agent) were investigated but NOT fixed here — deeper tracing showed the rotation-counter behavior is intentional (by design, per an existing code comment and test), and the usage-fallback question is genuinely ambiguous (may be intentional scoping around pinned-item dispatch) and needs a product decision, not a blind fix.


Opened by claude-code on flared:c997d745ae66 for item #514 via agentflare.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved Git command execution by consistently using the configured environment path.
    • Fixed restoration of work items so the assignee is updated before the item is marked ready for work.
    • Preserved existing labels during restoration while ensuring assignment and readiness status remain synchronized.

…e label/assignee ordering

run_in_lines_bounded was the one git-spawn site PR #537 missed when wiring
apply_filtered_path through every other call site — it can still hit E2BIG
on a daemon with a PATH bloated by repeated dispatches.

restore_ready_for_work added the ready-for-work label before restoring
assignee_agent via two non-transactional DB calls; a failure between them
reproduces item #150's bug (labeled ready-for-work, no assignee_agent).
Reordered so assignee_agent is restored first.

The changes propagate the resolved PATH to spawned Git processes and update orphaned-item assignees before restoring the ready-for-work label.

Orphan restoration updates assignee_agent before adding the ready-for-work label.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 051c8

The change corrects the ordering of assignee and label restoration, but a database failure can still leave an item partially restored with inconsistent scheduling state. Merge should wait for atomic error-handled restoration or explicit owner acceptance of this bounded correctness risk.

…n one transaction

CodeRabbit finding on PR #556: remove_label/update/add_label ran as three
independent, non-atomic writes with errors discarded via .ok()? -- a
failure partway through could leave the item in an inconsistent state
(no scheduling label, or dispatched still attached) with no rollback.
Wraps them in an explicit BEGIN/COMMIT/ROLLBACK.

…re auto-redispatching indefinitely (#557)

* Adds a dispatch-attempt ceiling to the daemon's auto-redispatch loop, per the item's ask: after `DISPATCH_FAILURE_CAP` (3) consecutive dispatch cycles ending with the same normalized terminal failure reason, the daemon stops auto-redispatching and surfaces the item for manual/PM review instead of retry-looping indefinitely.

- New `src/dispatch_failure_ceiling.rs`: parses `## supervisor — dispatched` / `## agentflare work — failed` / `## agentflare work — complete` comment markers into per-cycle failure reasons, counts the consecutive-identical streak (whitespace-normalized so formatting-only diffs still match), resets on a differing reason or a success.
- `dashboard::orphan_reconcile::handle_terminal_job_failure` now checks the streak: below the cap, restores `ready-for-work` (unchanged behavior); at/above the cap, swaps to `needs-manual-dispatch` (or leaves it off `ready-for-work` if that label doesn't exist) and posts a `## supervisor — identical failure cap reached` comment with the last failure reason, so a human knows to `item action=redispatch` after fixing the root cause.
- `supervisor::dispatch_item` now emits its dispatch-marker comment via a shared constant instead of an ad hoc string literal, so the ceiling's comment-parsing can't silently drift out of sync. `cli::work::release_and_comment`'s failure-marker stays a literal string (a comment there documents the sync requirement) rather than importing the constant, because `src/cli/work.rs` is LOC-frozen at exactly 2100 lines and any net-positive change to it is rejected by the repo's LOC gate.
- Also fixed the same label/assignee-restore ordering bug in `handle_terminal_job_failure` that a same-day review found in the sibling `restore_ready_for_work` function (separate PR #556, unmerged as of this writing): `assignee_agent` is now restored before the `ready-for-work` label is added, so a DB failure between the two calls can't strand the item labeled-ready-but-unassigned (item #150's failure class).

This continues WIP a prior cursor dispatch on this item left uncommitted in the worktree (real progress — the core module and its 5 unit tests were already correct and unchanged here). I reviewed it, fixed a clippy `collapsible_if` lint and a formatting nit, applied the ordering fix above, unstaged an unrelated LOC-over-budget hunk on `work.rs` that was staged from the earlier attempt, and verified: `cargo build --lib`, `cargo clippy --tests -- -A unsafe_code -A clippy::pedantic -D warnings`, and `cargo fmt --check` all clean; `dispatch_failure_ceiling::tests` (5/5), `dashboard::orphan_reconcile::tests` (10/10, including 2 new cap-behavior tests), and `supervisor::tests` (28/28) all pass.

* fix(work): address CodeRabbit findings on the dispatch failure cap (#506)

Two real bugs surfaced by CodeRabbit's review of PR #557:

- The at-cap branch of handle_terminal_job_failure never restored
  assignee_agent after release_and_comment cleared it, so the cap
  comment's own instruction ("item action=redispatch") would fail
  with "no assignee_agent to redispatch to" unless the caller passed
  one explicitly.

- consecutive_identical_failure_count treated neither a posted cap
  comment nor an unrecorded-outcome cycle (e.g. an orphan-restart via
  restore_ready_for_work, which deliberately posts no marker) as a
  streak boundary. A post-redispatch retry that failed with the same
  reason would immediately re-trip the cap with zero retry budget,
  and a benign daemon-restart gap could silently bridge two otherwise
  unrelated identical-reason cycles into a false consecutive streak.

Fixed both, added regression tests for each, and reformatted with
cargo fmt.
