The marker lifecycle (fm-wake-lib.sh _fm_recovery_marker_ack) leaves state/.watcher-down behind in an acked:* state after a downtime episode is handled. health_snapshot's presence check reported that as an open gap on every later return, so a handled episode kept surfacing as a false GAP forever.

The one red check, Behavior portable serial 1, was cancelled at the 30-minute job limit (30m15s), not a test failure; the other 13 checks pass. This account cannot re-run jobs on this repository, so a re-run of that job from your side should turn it green. |

…etection (#8) * feat(bin): add Antigravity CLI (agy) as third worker/scout adapter (kunchenguid#4200) * feat(agy): verify Antigravity CLI as third worker/scout adapter Detection by anchored ancestry in fm-harness.sh (no marker of its own); bootstrap harness and effort validation; launch template with model and effort mapping plus reachable-catalog model validation; rendered-tail busy fallback in fm-busy-lib.sh with delivery footer in fm-composer-lib.sh; control mechanics with crewmate/scout-only refusal; tmux liveness naming; router entry with concise adapter reference; dated verification record; portable regression plus opt-in live drift guard. Verified live on agy 1.2.0: supervised spawn, durable steering, same-copy relaunch, and exit, with Herdr-native busy agreement. * no-mistakes(review): bound agy model probe, gate trust dialog, narrow busy signature * no-mistakes(review): pre-register agy workspace trust, make readiness gate strict * no-mistakes(review): Close Orca terminal on gate failure; isolate live-guard HOME; tighten agy matching * no-mistakes(document): Document agy adapter in stale harness enumerations * no-mistakes(review): Clamp non-positive FM_AGY_MODELS_TIMEOUT to the default bound * no-mistakes(document): Fix stale test-shard snapshots after agy lane additions * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed ci-3 (tests/fm-agy-harness.test.sh:519). Root cause: the agy spawn fixture's default base PATH (/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin) omits node's directory, but the spawn drives the real bin/fm-agy-trust.sh (which hard-requires node to record trust) and the fixture's fake tmux trust lookup (node -e) under that PATH. On the ubuntu-latest CI runner node lives in the toolcache (/usr/local/bin), so trust pre-registration failed on portable serial 2; on typical Arch hosts node is in /usr/bin, masking the defect. Fix (smallest, following the existing tests/fm-kimi-harness.test.sh precedent of carrying the interpreter's resolved directory): resolve node from the invoking environment (failing the test with 'test needs node' if absent, as kimi does for python3) and prepend its directory to the fixture's default base PATH; the FM_TEST_BASE_PATH override contract is untouched. Verified locally: (1) pre-fix reproduction with a CI-shaped base PATH (system bins minus node) produced exactly the reported failure — 'node is required to record workspace trust and was not found on PATH' plus the fake tmux 'node: command not found'; (2) post-fix, all 29 tests in the file pass both with node available only via a leading non-standard dir in the base PATH (CI's shape) and with the default base PATH on this host. bash -n clean; ShellCheck is not installed in this worktree (previously recorded as environmental) * no-mistakes(test): Give agy typed sends a longer submit-confirm budget * no-mistakes(document): Document agy send budget, trust gate, and control coverage * no-mistakes(document): Document agy busy fallback inventory and send-timing evidence * feat(afk): add quiet supervision mode for a present captain (kunchenguid#4337) * feat(afk): add quiet supervision mode for a present captain Adds a first-class quiet supervision mode alongside /afk for kunchenguid#2356: the same away-mode daemon, injection, busy/composer guards, classification policy, and reliability properties, but the captain staying present and chatting no longer exits it - only an explicit /quiet off does. state/.afk's first line now declares its mode (away, the default, or quiet); fm_afk_mode() in bin/fm-wake-lib.sh is the single reader, falling back to away for missing/empty/unreadable/unrecognized content (including the legacy bare-epoch-timestamp format written before mode existed) so nothing regresses. fm_afk_flag_write() preserves the on-disk mode on a bare refresh (no explicit mode given) rather than defaulting to away, which is what keeps the daemon's own redundant terminal-side re-write from silently resetting a captain's quiet mode back to away underneath them. New .agents/skills/quiet/SKILL.md is a thin wrapper cross-referencing /afk for every shared mechanism, per the one-owner rule. AGENTS.md gains the state/.afk table entry and section 8's exit-trigger line. bin/fm-supervision-instructions.sh, bin/fm-session-start.sh, and bin/fm-guard.sh's stale-watcher banner all become mode-aware so a quiet-mode captain is never misdirected to /afk in captain-facing text. Closes kunchenguid#2356 * no-mistakes(review): Fix AFK epoch parsing and quiet-mode digest wording for two-line flag * no-mistakes(document): Fix turnend-guard.md daemon-ownership contract for quiet mode --------- Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <claude@theinbtw.com> Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <170579485+NewAiCoder@users.noreply.github.com> * fix(bin): let verified harness ancestry outrank retained markers (#3) (kunchenguid#3578) * fix(bin): let verified harness ancestry outrank retained markers (#3) * fix(bin): let a structural harness ancestor outrank a retained marker bin/fm-harness.sh treated a verified environment marker as unconditionally authoritative, so a Codex session started from an environment that had retained CLAUDECODE=1 detected as claude. Session start then emitted Claude's Stop-owned supervision protocol to a Codex primary, and every turn end was blocked for missing Claude recovery. The defect is the precedence boundary, not any one harness. codex, opencode, kimi, and muse publish no identity marker at all, so with markers winning outright any retained CLAUDECODE renamed them; the Cursor-before-Claude ordering was a point patch on the same class of problem, and the launch-time marker clearing only ever covered sessions fm-spawn started. Markers and ancestry are now separate evidence layers that detect_own arbitrates: - no ancestry match, or no marker: the single available layer answers, unchanged; - same harness family: the marker's finer verdict stands, so a launch-selected pi-signed is not flattened to pi by an ancestry walk that can only see the shared launcher name; - different harness with a structural (command-name) ancestor: ancestry wins, because only ancestry proves who owns the process tree; - different harness with only a bare-interpreter script-path match: the marker wins, since a harness-shaped path in some node process's arguments is weaker evidence than a harness publishing its own identity. The correction is symmetric: a retained CURSOR_AGENT no longer renames a claude worker nested under cursor either. Adds fm-harness.sh ancestry [<pid>], ancestry evidence with no marker layer, so a real harness process can be asked what the walk makes of it. tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh is the portable regression, built from real renamed processes with no harness installed. Every case drives the two layers apart and asserts each alone as well as the combination, so no case can pass vacuously; it also pins Codex's real two-process install topology, since the fix depends on the native binary being what a tool subprocess meets first. The opt-in drift guard gains the matching live half: each installed harness's real running process must still be identified by the ancestry walk, and it fails naming the harness and version when a release changes that name. Documentation follows the corrected contract in the script header, the harness-adapters detection section, the codex, opencode, kimi, and cursor references, and a dated verification record. * fix(tests): drop the unused argument pass-through in the shim-topology helper bin/fm-lint.sh refused the branch: run_shim declared a `[ancestry]` argument and forwarded "$@", but every call site that varies the environment or passes the ancestry subcommand invokes the shim entry point directly, so the helper is only ever called with no arguments (ShellCheck SC2120/SC2119). Behavior is unchanged: with no arguments "$@" expanded to nothing. * fix(bin): examine the top of the process chain instead of assuming init harness_ancestry stopped as soon as the next pid was 1, on the assumption that pid 1 is always init and can never be a harness. Inside a PID namespace that assumption inverts: the harness itself is pid 1, so the walk never examined the one process that proves who owns the tree, reported no ancestry at all, and handed the verdict straight back to a retained marker. A real Codex session under `codex sandbox`, holding CLAUDECODE=1 and CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT=cli, is exactly that shape: it resolved claude and rendered Claude's Stop-owned supervision protocol even with the marker-vs-ancestry precedence boundary in place. The same probe now resolves codex and renders the Codex foreground checkpoint. A host's real pid 1 (init, systemd, launchd) matches no harness name, so examining it costs one ps call and can introduce no false positive; the walk still stops once that top process has been read, and a non-numeric or zero ppid still ends it. tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh pins the namespace shape with a fake ps that reports every process as bash with ppid 1 and pid 1 as the harness. The case asserts the marker still answers alone when pid 1 is host-shaped, so it cannot pass vacuously, and it fails against the previous stop condition. * docs(verification): record the real-Codex retained-marker evidence The existing record proved the precedence boundary with the portable regression and recorded each installed harness's process name behind the ancestry walk, but it had no evidence from a real Codex process actually holding a retained Claude marker, which is the failure the boundary exists for. Adds the dated before/after result from codex-cli 0.152.0 under `codex sandbox`, with the exact command and the decisive verdict and rendered protocol on each side, and records the second boundary that shape exposed: the walk must examine the top of the process chain, because inside a PID namespace the harness is pid 1. Refreshes the portable regression's observed output for the case it gained. * no-mistakes(review): blind ancestry in marker-pinned harness tests * no-mistakes(review): blind ancestry in the Pi guard-routing test * no-mistakes(review): classify precedence suite, dedupe ps stub, soften claims * no-mistakes(review): model the spawn-and-wait Codex shim topology * no-mistakes(document): correct stale muse marker-clearing detection claims * no-mistakes: apply CI fixes * fix(bin): examine the top of the chain in the lock and nudge walks too The pid-1 defect corrected in bin/fm-harness.sh survived unchanged in the two other harness-ancestry walks, on the exact topology the branch verified against a real Codex process. bin/fm-session-lock-lib.sh's fm_harness_ancestry_pids stopped as soon as the next pid was 1, so a firstmate whose harness is pid 1 of its own PID namespace could not find that harness at all and did not recognize its own session lock. bin/fm-sessionstart-nudge.sh carried the same stop plus a blanket rejection of a lock pid of 1, so the same session was told to run session start again on every turn. Both walks now compare the top process before stopping, matching the shape used in bin/fm-harness.sh. For the lock walk this is safe because fm_harness_process_matches rejects a host's real pid 1. For the nudge, `kill -0` still gates the lock pid, and on a host an unprivileged `kill -0 1` fails, so a lock file that wrongly names pid 1 leaves the hook silent rather than acting on init. Each walk gains one regression case. The lock case drives a deterministic process table whose pid 1 is the harness and asserts a host-shaped pid 1 still finds nothing, so it cannot pass vacuously. The nudge case needs a real PID namespace, because the builtin `kill -0` gate cannot be reached through a fake ps, and it first proves the same fixture nudges with no lock present; it skips explicitly where unprivileged namespaces are unavailable. * no-mistakes(review): assert comm-strength detection from subprocess vantage in drift guard * fix(bin): verify the live harness guard at the strength the guarantee needs The marker-versus-ancestry boundary this branch ships is a strength claim: detect_own hands an args-strength verdict straight back to a retained foreign marker, so a harness is only protected where the ancestry walk reaches it at comm strength. The installed-harness drift guard probed the pane process alone. Under an interpreter shim the pane process IS the shim, whose own script path is args strength, while the native binary that carries comm strength is its child. The guard therefore observed args for Codex, passed, and would have kept passing if a release stopped spawning that native child at all, while real sessions silently regressed to the original bug. fm-harness.sh gains `ancestry-subtree`, which asks the walk from the pane process and every descendant of it, the vantage a tool subprocess actually occupies. The guard now requires comm strength somewhere in that set and requires every vantage to name the same harness. This supersedes the preceding commit's in-guard leaf walk, which reached the same vantage but left the logic inside the test file, where CI could not pin it and nothing else could reuse it. A harness-dependent check needs both halves: `tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh` now carries a portable case proving the subtree probe reaches a strength the top-of-session probe cannot, mutation checked twice, once against the pre-change script and once by disabling descendant enumeration. The subtree walk also avoids depending on tty and process-group semantics that differ between Linux and macOS. Verified live: codex-cli 0.152.0 reports [args codex;comm codex] and Claude Code 2.1.257 reports [comm claude]. * no-mistakes(review): narrow drift guard to the upward vantage path * no-mistakes(review): judge only comm-strength vantages in drift guard * no-mistakes(document): drop duplicated rationale in detection precedence evidence * no-mistakes(review): fix pid-1 nudge case vacuity and descent no-arg expansion * no-mistakes(document): drop branch-relative phrasing in detection precedence evidence * no-mistakes(review): guard remaining empty positional expansions in fm-harness * no-mistakes(document): scope cursor marker-ordering claim to the marker layer * no-mistakes(review): Prefer comm-strength leaves in equal-depth descent ties * no-mistakes(document): Document comm-strength descent tie-break --------- * no-mistakes(review): Blind ancestry in stale gemini/rovo marker-precedence tests * no-mistakes(document): Add missing equal-depth-tie test line to precedence evidence transcript * no-mistakes(review): Fix stale/vacuous agy precedence test, add agy to precedence suite and docs * no-mistakes(document): Fix stale kimi.md marker doc missed by ancestry-precedence fix --------- Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <170579485+NewAiCoder@users.noreply.github.com> * fix(bin): pre-approve external CLAUDE.md import dialog for spawned workers (kunchenguid#3944) Claude Code's external-imports check (hasClaudeMdExternalIncludesApproved) reads only the canonical git-root project entry in ~/.claude.json, which its own worktree-to-primary-checkout canonicalization means is never the task worktree fm-claude-trust.sh registered. The trust dialog kept working previously only because its check has an ancestor-walk fallback that happens to reach the worktree entry; the external-imports check has no such fallback. Verified by disassembling the installed claude binary and reproducing in an isolated three-way tmux launch: identical flags registered only at the worktree key still showed the external-imports dialog, and registering them at the primary checkout key suppressed both dialogs. fm-claude-trust.sh now registers all three flags on both the worktree entry and the primary-checkout entry in one atomic write, and refuses when the <project> argument is not itself a primary checkout (its own write target would then be wrong). Extends the harness-adapters Claude reference and the trust test suite.

The watch's trust binding was hashed at arm time, so the very next fire was refused as not matching the registered binding and the watch died silently. Add fm-procevent-when.sh rebind-all: it re-hashes and republishes the trust binding for every watch whose action executable lives under FM_ROOT, using the same spec/trust validation as an ordinary fire, and leaves any watch whose action lives outside FM_ROOT untouched. Wire it into fm-update.sh right after a successful fast-forward, for both the primary home and any local secondmate home that advances. * no-mistakes(review): Canonicalize FM_ROOT for rebind-all's containment check * no-mistakes(document): Document fm-update.sh's automatic watch rebind and its verification evidence * no-mistakes(lint): fix(tests): double-quote printf scripts to satisfy shellcheck SC2016 * no-mistakes(review): Reload trust binding from disk before firing to reach live pollers * no-mistakes(review): Lock the fire-time trust reload against rebind_one's publish race * no-mistakes(document): Document rebind-all's self-update guarantee and its two review-round test rows --------- Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <170579485+NewAiCoder@users.noreply.github.com> * feat(brief): require poteto-mode in generated worker briefs by default Ship and scout briefs now carry a Poteto mode section instructing the worker to run the task under the poteto-mode skill. config/poteto-mode gates it: absence or "on" enables, "off" omits, and any other value refuses the scaffold so a typo cannot silently drop the requirement. Secondmate charters never receive the section and never read the file. The unguarded section authorizes exactly the skill's own lifecycle - renaming the worker's own pane, one run tab, splits inside it, and role and watchdog panes it started - and forbids touching another run's or the fleet's panes, so the brief no longer tells a worker to perform and avoid the same step. A --herdr-lab brief runs the playbook in-host instead, because its lab contract governs every Herdr call. Where the skill's playbook duplicates a review, validation, or shipping step the delivery path already covers, the delivery path satisfies it, keeping AGENTS.md section 7's prohibition on stacked reviews intact. The setting is inherited into secondmate homes. B21's concurrent-push wait now ends on the marker or the child's exit instead of a wall-clock bound that failed under load. * feat(bin): automatic main-session handover on context and quota exhaustion (#4) * feat(bin): add main-session resource protection command and its handover skill fm-primary-resource.sh owns observe/arm/check/decide/commit/helper for the main Firstmate session: a reliable context reading at or above 175000 tokens hands over to the same harness, and a provider quota window at or above 97 percent used hands over to an independent provider, with quota taking precedence. An unavailable or uncertain reading alerts and never closes the session, and one immutable receipt per incident is reserved before any terminal action so a successor cannot repeat it. The primary agent runs stow itself and passes a structured reset-safe attestation bound to the incident and generation; commit revalidates the binding, context, and quota under the resource lock before reserving. A bounded helper in a backend-owned terminal proves the pane occupant is the recorded session, sends the exit command once, and launches the successor only into a proven shell. Herdr stays alert-only until a guarded live lab proves that transaction end to end. * feat: arm main-session resource protection and observe its context binding Bootstrap arms the standing check in the locked main-home path only, never in a secondmate home, and reports an arm failure as PRIMARY_RESOURCE: not armed rather than silently continuing without the protection. The turn-end guard passes its already-read payload to observe so the reading is bound to the lock-owning session; it never changes the guard's exit status or output. AGENTS.md records the new private state directory and the handover skill trigger, bootstrap-diagnostics owns the new prefix, and the test inventory maps the new suite to the watcher family. * docs: classify the main-session handover skill as agent-runtime The repository documentation audience check refuses an unclassified surface, so the new skill left bin/fm-doc-audience-check.sh failing and with it tests/fm-documentation-audiences.test.sh. Classify it beside the other agent-loaded skills. * no-mistakes(review): Fix primary resource review findings * no-mistakes(review): Narrow resource handovers to verified adapters * no-mistakes(review): Remove stale decide command documentation * no-mistakes(review): Always refresh quota and reconcile successor generations * no-mistakes(review): Validate incident IDs before resource state writes * no-mistakes(review): Preserve spawned Codex bypass flag * no-mistakes(review): Reject malformed destination quota ranges * no-mistakes(review): Gate handovers on validated live prerequisites * feat(bin): hand over the main session on Herdr, not just tmux The captain's decision removes the tmux-only narrowing: a main session running on Herdr must hand over, not merely alert. pr_launch_helper now creates the bounded helper's own non-focused workspace pane through the session-scoped CLI wrapper, the same shape bin/fm-afk-launch.sh uses, and reclaims that endpoint if the helper command cannot start. The three sites that converted a valid handover into an alert are gone. Commit-time revalidation also recomputes the launch-reconstruction guard instead of assuming it: a session whose launch command cannot be rebuilt is refused at the moment of acting, not only during the periodic check, and the refusal names that concrete cause rather than reporting a generic mismatch. Verified live on herdr 0.9.0 inside isolated fm-lab-* sessions created by bin/fm-herdr-lab.sh, with teardown installed before provisioning: the real launch path built its own workspace distinct from the stand-in primary pane, the exit command left that pane shell-only, and a successor ran there. The default session was untouched and no lab session leaked. The pane-level sequence is proven; a full-fidelity run with a Herdr-recognised agent in the lab pane is not, and the accompanying report says so. Three test corrections, none of which weaken the guard: a case asserted a codex binding while running under another harness, which is impossible since codex is detected by process ancestry rather than a marker; a wall-clock budget was tuned to the removed quota cache; and the new Herdr case needed a reconstructable launch argv for the probe to read. * no-mistakes(review): Harden Herdr handover ownership and helper cleanup * no-mistakes(review): Authority exit PID via immutable receipt; unconditional helper pane cleanup * no-mistakes(review): Delete launch files before helper pane close; alert terminal failures once * no-mistakes(document): Document seven bootstrap sweeps; complete resource schema header * no-mistakes(review): Clear stale episodes per provider, lock outcome writes, fail malformed source windows closed, stage-specific stalled-successor bound, drop redundant force-owner guard * no-mistakes(review): Quote arm shim paths with printf %q for bash 3.2 * no-mistakes(document): Fix stale sweep counts and quota schema docs * no-mistakes(review): repair portable resource handover paths * no-mistakes(review): fail argv capture closed to /proc, quota wins over argv guard, add live Herdr lab e2e * no-mistakes(document): Correct stale test-seam facts in primary-resource header * no-mistakes(document): Record primary-resource verification grades; narrow adapter claims * no-mistakes(review): restructure lock-holder fixture, narrow MISSING assertion, fix serial hint * no-mistakes(document): fix stale agy session-lock vocabulary claims in docs * fix(bin): layer approved agy fixes onto the auss-main-based rebase lineage Carry the captain-approved deltas from the upstream-based validation lineage onto the auss:main-based rebase (e6dc1e0) so the branch descends from auss/firstmate:main and PR #8 is a clean fast-forward: the restored agy composer-verdict subsystem with its palette-8 ghost stripper and Herdr separated-pair admission, the agy 1.2.2 spinner status-row signature fix, their tests, and the rebase-doc verification updates. * no-mistakes(review): Fix stale usage() header range in fm-procevent-when.sh * no-mistakes(document): fix stale skill cross-references and restore dropped rovo * no-mistakes(ci): CI Lint failed on two ShellCheck SC2100 warnings in bin/fm-pending-reply-lib.sh lines 1081/1084: unquoted assignments token=pending-reply-missed and token=pending-reply-delivery-unknown, whose hyphenated bare values parse as arithmetic under full extended analysis (--external-sources). Fixed by quoting both values, matching the already-quoted recovery-delivery branch. Verified: reproduced both warnings locally with pinned ShellCheck 0.11.0 in the exact CI mode before the edit; after the fix shellcheck --norc --external-sources on the file exits 0 with no findings, and bin/fm-lint.sh bin/fm-pending-reply-lib.sh (full extended analysis plus backend-purity check) exits 0.

* fix: pre-register Claude trust for secondmate homes (#4262) * fix(spawn): pre-register Claude workspace trust for secondmate homes A claude --secondmate launch skipped workspace-trust registration entirely, so a standalone-clone secondmate home (an explicit ~/fm-homes/<id> path) had no store entry and its pane wedged on the "Is this a project you trust?" dialog before it read its charter. The step was gated on the task kind rather than on the harness, so the spawn's fail-closed guard had nothing to run against and reported a launch that could never start work. fm-claude-trust.sh gains a secondmate-home mode. A secondmate home is a whole firstmate instance, produced either as a leased worktree or as a standalone clone, so the linked-worktree test cannot decide it and the seed is the evidence instead: the .fm-secondmate-home marker must be a regular file this user owns naming exactly the id being spawned, the home must hold AGENTS.md and bin/, and each operational directory must resolve inside the home. That is the set fm-home-seed.sh writes and fm-spawn.sh's own home validation re-checks, so nothing wider than a home a secondmate spawn would launch into can earn home-level trust. The worktree path is unchanged, and still refuses a home. fm-spawn.sh now runs the registration for every claude launch and keeps refusing the spawn when it fails, rather than launching an agent that would wedge. * no-mistakes(document): Correct Claude secondmate trust guidance * fix: ignore superseded failed GitHub check runs (#4258) * fix(pr-merge): judge each required check by its current run When the base branch advances, GitHub cancels a pull request's in-flight run and re-triggers it. The cancelled run stays in statusCheckRollup beside the passing re-run, so the rollup can hold several runs of one check name at the same head while GitHub itself reports the pull request CLEAN. github_checks_not_green judged every run independently, so that superseded failure refused a genuinely mergeable pull request and pushed the operator toward a needless --allow-red. Group the rollup by the reported name and judge each check by its current run. Supersession is proven, never assumed: a name leaves the red set only when every one of its non-green runs is strictly older than one of its green runs, dated by the forge's own settled timestamp - a check run's completedAt once its status is COMPLETED, or a status context's createdAt - and only in the whole-second UTC form GitHub emits, which is the one spelling that orders correctly as plain text. A run with no such timestamp is never superseded, so a still-running, queued or undated run keeps its check red, and a name with no green run at all stays red. An unnamed entry is grouped alone so two unrelated unnamed checks are never treated as one. Every comparison is one-directional: it can only clear a failure a later success provably replaced, and never clears a check whose current run failed, is pending, or is missing. No other guard moves - the pull request must still be open, undrafted, mergeable, conflict-free and head-bound, and --allow-red still waives exactly its named check with every other check green. Live reproduction: PR #4224 read CLEAN with an old FAILURE and a newer SUCCESS for one check name and was refused; it now verifies, while #4208 and #4210, whose latest runs failed, still refuse. * no-mistakes(review): Use check-run start times for safe supersession * no-mistakes(document): Clarify GitHub check-rollup documentation * fix(bin): persist merge authority for poll-detected outcomes (#4266) * fix(merge): persist the merge authority on poll-detected merge outcomes The merge ledger tags a merge with the authority that permitted it while the away-posture record existed, but only the direct attended merge in bin/fm-pr-merge.sh recorded it. A merge the forge queued, or one the merge poll detected after the fact, published an untagged row, so exactly the merges no agent watched were the least auditable. bin/fm-merge-authority-lib.sh now owns that answer, read from the same structured sources the merge gate already used: the task's recorded yolo posture and the away-posture record's mechanical grant list, never prose. bin/fm-pr-merge.sh keeps its own refusal wording and gates on that answer; bin/fm-watch.sh only records it on the row its poll publishes, so reading the authority never becomes a second path to a merge. An unresolved answer records an untagged row rather than dropping the outcome or inventing an authority. * no-mistakes(review): Persist canonical merge authority for queued poll outcomes * no-mistakes(review): Harden merge authority persistence against lifecycle races * no-mistakes(review): Serialize poll authority publication with teardown * no-mistakes(document): Clarify persisted merge authority lifecycle * no-mistakes(ci): Added targeted SC2034 suppressions for the two public result assignments in bin/fm-merge-authority-lib.sh. Verified successfully with `CI=true bin/fm-lint.sh` * ci: supersede superseded PR CI and bound unbounded jobs (#4281) The 2026-09-12 Actions starvation incident found firstmate CI with no concurrency deduplication, so every superseded PR head kept its full 13-job fan-out, and four jobs with no timeout at all. Add per-PR supersession keyed on the PR number for pull_request events and on the unique run id for push events, cancelling only pull_request runs, so a new PR head replaces its own in-flight CI while every main push keeps its own group and is never cancelled. Add hang tripwires to the four previously unbounded jobs: 25 minutes for lint (measured at 14-16 minutes) and 5 minutes each for the coverage guard, the timing aggregate, and the repo invariants. Measured lane bounds are unchanged. tests/fm-ci-workflow.test.sh resolves the workflow's concurrency expressions against simulated pull_request and push contexts and holds every job's finite timeout. * test(watch): gate backlog-hold away-record fixture on tasks-axi (#4288) Every other make_hold_home caller in this file skips when tasks-axi is absent; this test was the one unguarded call, so hosts without tasks-axi hard-fail the fixture build instead of skipping. * fix(backlog): bound per-item backlog row reads so a wedged backend cannot blind a session start (#4027) * fix(bin): bound each backlog row read so one wedged backend cannot blind a session start bin/fm-bootstrap.sh's reconcile and close-replay sweeps read the backlog backend once per item through fm_backlog_row_show, and that read was unbounded. A single wedged `tasks-axi show` therefore consumed the whole FM_SESSION_START_TIMEOUT and truncated the digest before the wake queue, supervision instructions, fleet state, and context sections ever printed, leaving the fleet unsupervised with no live watcher. The harm was a blind startup, not a slow one. Bound the read with the existing shared timeout primitive (bin/fm-timeout-lib.sh), so a wedged backend degrades to a loud partial reconcile: the sweep's existing BACKLOG_RECONCILE diagnostic names the item it could not read and the loop continues to the next one. The first bound hit also latches FM_BACKLOG_ROW_SHOW_WEDGED, so a sweep over many items pays one bound rather than one per item and still names every item it skipped, which is what keeps the digest whole on a home carrying a large fleet. The bound holds regardless of any particular tasks-axi install, so it does not depend on the 0.2.5 `show` hang being resolved separately. * fix(bin): set the wedged-backend latch where it survives, and prove it The latch added with the read bound was inert. fm_backlog_row_show runs inside a command substitution in both of its status-capturing callers, so the subshell read the inherited value correctly but its write died with the subshell. Every item still paid a full bound and reported `exceeded`, never `skipped`, which left the large-fleet case the latch existed to cover completely uncovered. Move the write to the two callers that capture the read's status and own the surviving shell, and leave fm_backlog_row_show reading the latch only. Correct the comments that claimed an ownership the function never had. The test that was supposed to cover this asserted only that the second read finished under a generous ceiling, which is true whether or not the latch works. Assert instead that a latched read is strictly faster than one bound and that it reports its own item as skipped, so an inert latch fails the test. * test: cover every item the wedged-backend latch skips The latch assertion exercised a single skipped item, so "every skipped item is still named" was inferred rather than tested. Probe three items instead and assert each skipped one names itself and costs less than a bound. Verified as a real guard by removing both latch writes: the suite then fails on the first skipped item instead of passing. * no-mistakes(review): distinguish backlog read-bound hits from absent rows * no-mistakes(review): preserve read-bound status through the captain verify gates * no-mistakes(review): Preserve backlog read-bound hits through resolve_entry and reconcile instead of spending them as absent rows * no-mistakes(review): Preserve backlog read-bound 124 through migrated-prefix scan and remaining task_show call sites * no-mistakes(document): Document bounded backlog row reads and FM_BACKLOG_ROW_TIMEOUT_SECS * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed all four failing CI checks with one root-cause fix plus one test-heredity fix. (1) bin/fm-captain-hold.sh: task_show carries the row in TASK_SHOW_OUTPUT and emits no stdout, but four call sites still used the stale command-substitution convention show=$(task_show ...), leaving show empty: task_show_or_fail (every captain hold failed with 'did not retain its hold-set stamp' - broke fm-captain-hold-lifecycle in parallel 1 and fm-bearings-board in serial 3), resolve_migrated_entry (migrated-prefix resolution could never match), reconcile-requests (existing rows were refused as absent), and command_open --identity (printed a constant '#0' identity, so fm-watch-triage's re-held captain call inherited the previous call's silence in serial 1). This is also the Greptile P1. Fixed by invoking task_show in the current shell and reading show=$TASK_SHOW_OUTPUT, the convention the other eight call sites already use; read-bound hits still stop loudly by name. (2) tests/fm-backlog-read-bound.test.sh (serial 4, unclassified family): the new e2e half implicitly relied on the author's process tree containing a harness process so fm-lock.sh would grant the fleet lock; on CI runners the lock is refused, the reconcile sweep is skipped, and the final BACKLOG_RECONCILE assertion fails. Reproduced by simulating a CI ancestry via a ps shim, fixed by pinning the lock evidence with the established fake-ps harness fixture pattern from tests/fm-session-start.test.sh. Verified: shellcheck clean; parallel-1, serial-3, and serial-4 lanes fully green locally (failed=0); serial-1 lane green except fm-gemini-harness, which fails only under local Node v26 (comm=node-MainThread); CI's default Node 22 reports comm=node, the branch that test passes on, so it is not a CI failure * no-mistakes(document): Verified bounded backlog read docs accurate across branch * fix(merge): serialize away authority with synchronous merges (#4285) * fix(merge): serialize the away-authority check with a synchronous merge bin/fm-pr-merge.sh read the away-posture record for merge authority (the per-task merge grant and the yolo/away-grant decision) and handed the merge to the forge afterwards. An archive at the captain's return or a grant revoked by a replacement record could land in between, so a merge could proceed on away authority that no longer held. The away record now carries a cross-subsystem lock, built on the existing bounded lock primitive rather than a new lock format: the record-mutating subcommands hold it across their mutation, and the merge holds it across both its authority read and the forge command. Because a queued or auto merge returns before the pull request lands, and would therefore outlive the lock, an away merge is now refused whenever it could land asynchronously: a requested --auto, a base branch whose merge-queue state does not prove an immediate merge, and GitLab's asynchronous flags and configuration. What remains permitted while away is the synchronous merge that lands inside the lock. This closes the common away-record/merge race against a live lock owner. It does not make the merge atomic in every case, and two narrow races are accepted and documented at their sites rather than hidden, both confused-agent-grade in the sense bin/fm-lease-lib.sh already uses: - A merge-queue rule change or a PR base change in the window between the queue-free preflight and the forge call can still enqueue the merge, which can then land after its grant lapses. - Killing the lock-owning shell while its gh or glab child is still running lets stale-owner recovery reclaim the lock and the record be archived or replaced, after which the orphaned child can complete the merge on lapsed authority. Closing either one needs landing verification or an ownership handoff, which is deliberately out of scope here. No existing gate is relaxed. The lock is taken after the live green-at-head verify and the captain-hold check, the in-lock authority read is unchanged, and a lock that cannot be taken refuses the merge rather than proceeding unlocked. The away grant stays a structured field; no prose is parsed. * no-mistakes(review): Fix GitHub rollup fixture base branch * no-mistakes(document): Document atomic away-authority merge locking * no-mistakes(ci): Updated two executable GitHub API fixtures to include the required baseRefName.

Root cause: the agy spawn fixture's default base PATH (/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin) omits node's directory, but the spawn drives the real bin/fm-agy-trust.sh (which hard-requires node to record trust) and the fixture's fake tmux trust lookup (node -e) under that PATH. On the ubuntu-latest CI runner node lives in the toolcache (/usr/local/bin), so trust pre-registration failed on portable serial 2; on typical Arch hosts node is in /usr/bin, masking the defect. Fix (smallest, following the existing tests/fm-kimi-harness.test.sh precedent of carrying the interpreter's resolved directory): resolve node from the invoking environment (failing the test with 'test needs node' if absent, as kimi does for python3) and prepend its directory to the fixture's default base PATH; the FM_TEST_BASE_PATH override contract is untouched. Verified locally: (1) pre-fix reproduction with a CI-shaped base PATH (system bins minus node) produced exactly the reported failure — 'node is required to record workspace trust and was not found on PATH' plus the fake tmux 'node: command not found'; (2) post-fix, all 29 tests in the file pass both with node available only via a leading non-standard dir in the base PATH (CI's shape) and with the default base PATH on this host. bash -n clean; ShellCheck is not installed in this worktree (previously recorded as environmental) * no-mistakes(test): Give agy typed sends a longer submit-confirm budget * no-mistakes(document): Document agy send budget, trust gate, and control coverage * no-mistakes(document): Document agy busy fallback inventory and send-timing evidence * feat(afk): add quiet supervision mode for a present captain (#4337) * feat(afk): add quiet supervision mode for a present captain Adds a first-class quiet supervision mode alongside /afk for kunchenguid/firstmate#2356: the same away-mode daemon, injection, busy/composer guards, classification policy, and reliability properties, but the captain staying present and chatting no longer exits it - only an explicit /quiet off does. state/.afk's first line now declares its mode (away, the default, or quiet); fm_afk_mode() in bin/fm-wake-lib.sh is the single reader, falling back to away for missing/empty/unreadable/unrecognized content (including the legacy bare-epoch-timestamp format written before mode existed) so nothing regresses. fm_afk_flag_write() preserves the on-disk mode on a bare refresh (no explicit mode given) rather than defaulting to away, which is what keeps the daemon's own redundant terminal-side re-write from silently resetting a captain's quiet mode back to away underneath them. New .agents/skills/quiet/SKILL.md is a thin wrapper cross-referencing /afk for every shared mechanism, per the one-owner rule. AGENTS.md gains the state/.afk table entry and section 8's exit-trigger line. bin/fm-supervision-instructions.sh, bin/fm-session-start.sh, and bin/fm-guard.sh's stale-watcher banner all become mode-aware so a quiet-mode captain is never misdirected to /afk in captain-facing text. Closes #2356 * no-mistakes(review): Fix AFK epoch parsing and quiet-mode digest wording for two-line flag * no-mistakes(document): Fix turnend-guard.md daemon-ownership contract for quiet mode --------- Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <claude@theinbtw.com> Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <170579485+NewAiCoder@users.noreply.github.com> * fix(bin): let verified harness ancestry outrank retained markers (#3) (#3578) * fix(bin): let verified harness ancestry outrank retained markers (#3) * fix(bin): let a structural harness ancestor outrank a retained marker bin/fm-harness.sh treated a verified environment marker as unconditionally authoritative, so a Codex session started from an environment that had retained CLAUDECODE=1 detected as claude. Session start then emitted Claude's Stop-owned supervision protocol to a Codex primary, and every turn end was blocked for missing Claude recovery. The defect is the precedence boundary, not any one harness. codex, opencode, kimi, and muse publish no identity marker at all, so with markers winning outright any retained CLAUDECODE renamed them; the Cursor-before-Claude ordering was a point patch on the same class of problem, and the launch-time marker clearing only ever covered sessions fm-spawn started. Markers and ancestry are now separate evidence layers that detect_own arbitrates: - no ancestry match, or no marker: the single available layer answers, unchanged; - same harness family: the marker's finer verdict stands, so a launch-selected pi-signed is not flattened to pi by an ancestry walk that can only see the shared launcher name; - different harness with a structural (command-name) ancestor: ancestry wins, because only ancestry proves who owns the process tree; - different harness with only a bare-interpreter script-path match: the marker wins, since a harness-shaped path in some node process's arguments is weaker evidence than a harness publishing its own identity. The correction is symmetric: a retained CURSOR_AGENT no longer renames a claude worker nested under cursor either. Adds fm-harness.sh ancestry [<pid>], ancestry evidence with no marker layer, so a real harness process can be asked what the walk makes of it. tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh is the portable regression, built from real renamed processes with no harness installed. Every case drives the two layers apart and asserts each alone as well as the combination, so no case can pass vacuously; it also pins Codex's real two-process install topology, since the fix depends on the native binary being what a tool subprocess meets first. The opt-in drift guard gains the matching live half: each installed harness's real running process must still be identified by the ancestry walk, and it fails naming the harness and version when a release changes that name. Documentation follows the corrected contract in the script header, the harness-adapters detection section, the codex, opencode, kimi, and cursor references, and a dated verification record. * fix(tests): drop the unused argument pass-through in the shim-topology helper bin/fm-lint.sh refused the branch: run_shim declared a `[ancestry]` argument and forwarded "$@", but every call site that varies the environment or passes the ancestry subcommand invokes the shim entry point directly, so the helper is only ever called with no arguments (ShellCheck SC2120/SC2119). Behavior is unchanged: with no arguments "$@" expanded to nothing. * fix(bin): examine the top of the process chain instead of assuming init harness_ancestry stopped as soon as the next pid was 1, on the assumption that pid 1 is always init and can never be a harness. Inside a PID namespace that assumption inverts: the harness itself is pid 1, so the walk never examined the one process that proves who owns the tree, reported no ancestry at all, and handed the verdict straight back to a retained marker. A real Codex session under `codex sandbox`, holding CLAUDECODE=1 and CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT=cli, is exactly that shape: it resolved claude and rendered Claude's Stop-owned supervision protocol even with the marker-vs-ancestry precedence boundary in place. The same probe now resolves codex and renders the Codex foreground checkpoint. A host's real pid 1 (init, systemd, launchd) matches no harness name, so examining it costs one ps call and can introduce no false positive; the walk still stops once that top process has been read, and a non-numeric or zero ppid still ends it. tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh pins the namespace shape with a fake ps that reports every process as bash with ppid 1 and pid 1 as the harness. The case asserts the marker still answers alone when pid 1 is host-shaped, so it cannot pass vacuously, and it fails against the previous stop condition. * docs(verification): record the real-Codex retained-marker evidence The existing record proved the precedence boundary with the portable regression and recorded each installed harness's process name behind the ancestry walk, but it had no evidence from a real Codex process actually holding a retained Claude marker, which is the failure the boundary exists for. Adds the dated before/after result from codex-cli 0.152.0 under `codex sandbox`, with the exact command and the decisive verdict and rendered protocol on each side, and records the second boundary that shape exposed: the walk must examine the top of the process chain, because inside a PID namespace the harness is pid 1. Refreshes the portable regression's observed output for the case it gained. * no-mistakes(review): blind ancestry in marker-pinned harness tests * no-mistakes(review): blind ancestry in the Pi guard-routing test * no-mistakes(review): classify precedence suite, dedupe ps stub, soften claims * no-mistakes(review): model the spawn-and-wait Codex shim topology * no-mistakes(document): correct stale muse marker-clearing detection claims * no-mistakes: apply CI fixes * fix(bin): examine the top of the chain in the lock and nudge walks too The pid-1 defect corrected in bin/fm-harness.sh survived unchanged in the two other harness-ancestry walks, on the exact topology the branch verified against a real Codex process. bin/fm-session-lock-lib.sh's fm_harness_ancestry_pids stopped as soon as the next pid was 1, so a firstmate whose harness is pid 1 of its own PID namespace could not find that harness at all and did not recognize its own session lock. bin/fm-sessionstart-nudge.sh carried the same stop plus a blanket rejection of a lock pid of 1, so the same session was told to run session start again on every turn. Both walks now compare the top process before stopping, matching the shape used in bin/fm-harness.sh. For the lock walk this is safe because fm_harness_process_matches rejects a host's real pid 1. For the nudge, `kill -0` still gates the lock pid, and on a host an unprivileged `kill -0 1` fails, so a lock file that wrongly names pid 1 leaves the hook silent rather than acting on init. Each walk gains one regression case. The lock case drives a deterministic process table whose pid 1 is the harness and asserts a host-shaped pid 1 still finds nothing, so it cannot pass vacuously. The nudge case needs a real PID namespace, because the builtin `kill -0` gate cannot be reached through a fake ps, and it first proves the same fixture nudges with no lock present; it skips explicitly where unprivileged namespaces are unavailable. * no-mistakes(review): assert comm-strength detection from subprocess vantage in drift guard * fix(bin): verify the live harness guard at the strength the guarantee needs The marker-versus-ancestry boundary this branch ships is a strength claim: detect_own hands an args-strength verdict straight back to a retained foreign marker, so a harness is only protected where the ancestry walk reaches it at comm strength. The installed-harness drift guard probed the pane process alone. Under an interpreter shim the pane process IS the shim, whose own script path is args strength, while the native binary that carries comm strength is its child. The guard therefore observed args for Codex, passed, and would have kept passing if a release stopped spawning that native child at all, while real sessions silently regressed to the original bug. fm-harness.sh gains `ancestry-subtree`, which asks the walk from the pane process and every descendant of it, the vantage a tool subprocess actually occupies. The guard now requires comm strength somewhere in that set and requires every vantage to name the same harness. This supersedes the preceding commit's in-guard leaf walk, which reached the same vantage but left the logic inside the test file, where CI could not pin it and nothing else could reuse it. A harness-dependent check needs both halves: `tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh` now carries a portable case proving the subtree probe reaches a strength the top-of-session probe cannot, mutation checked twice, once against the pre-change script and once by disabling descendant enumeration. The subtree walk also avoids depending on tty and process-group semantics that differ between Linux and macOS.

The trust dialog kept working previously only because its check has an ancestor-walk fallback that happens to reach the worktree entry; the external-imports check has no such fallback. Verified by disassembling the installed claude binary and reproducing in an isolated three-way tmux launch: identical flags registered only at the worktree key still showed the external-imports dialog, and registering them at the primary checkout key suppressed both dialogs. fm-claude-trust.sh now registers all three flags on both the worktree entry and the primary-checkout entry in one atomic write, and refuses when the <project> argument is not itself a primary checkout (its own write target would then be wrong).

Both read a task's body back with `decode_json`, but tasks-axi shows a scalar field as a JSON-encoded bare string, and an older library rejects that whole value with "must be object or array". The consequence is fleet-wide on such a host, not one broken command: a worker there cannot formally record a decision for the captain at all. It can only mention the decision in passing in a status line, where it can be missed - which is how a real decision goes unrecorded. The hold reports that the task lost its hold-set stamp; the cleanup cannot return the row to Queued. Both call sites now ask for allow_nonref explicitly rather than inheriting whatever the installed library defaults to. The second one is worth naming: its `/\A"/` guard reads as deliberate, but a leading quote is exactly the bare-string case that fails, so the guard selects for the failing input rather than protecting against it. The regression case forces the older default back off for every perl the commands spawn, then drives both paths - holding a task that carries a body, and tearing down a captain-held row whose deliverable must still be appended. It also probes that the simulation genuinely rejects a bare scalar, so the case cannot pass vacuously on a lenient host. Each half was verified failing on its own unfixed call site with that site's real error message. Suites: fm-captain-hold-lifecycle 51 cases, fm-backlog-atomicity 99 cases, 0 failures. Verification limit: the mechanism is reproduced and tested, but neither fix is verified against a real JSON::PP 2.27202 host, because none is in the loop. This laptop runs 4.06, where the bug does not manifest. `bin/fm-procevent-lavish.sh:471` was checked and left alone - it matches a brace-delimited object before decoding, so allow_nonref never applies. * fix(bin): stop cleanup silently dropping accented characters from a held body Cleanup rewrites a captain-held row's body to append the finished work's deliverable, and the decoder it reads that body with printed decoded characters to a stream with no `:raw` layer. A character at or below U+00FF then came out as one latin-1 byte instead of two UTF-8 ones, so a body reading "café" lost the accent. `fm_backlog_retain` writes that body straight back through `--body-file`, and nothing reported an error - the character was simply gone from a row still waiting on the captain. The decoder now writes bytes, the same `binmode STDOUT, ":raw"` plus `utf8::encode` that the sibling decoder in `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh` already used. Review of the parent commit found this on one of the lines that commit already changed. It predates that change. The test asserts bytes rather than decoded strings, because comparing strings cannot tell latin-1 from UTF-8. It uses two separate rows on purpose: any character above U+00FF makes perl print the whole string as UTF-8, so one body carrying both an accent and an em dash passes even unfixed and proves nothing. Verified failing before the fix on the accented row, passing after. Suites: fm-captain-hold-lifecycle 52 cases, fm-backlog-atomicity 99 cases, 0 failures. * no-mistakes(document): record body-decode regression proofs in captain-hold lifecycle doc * no-mistakes(review): drop whole-file UTF-8 check from retained-body test * no-mistakes(review): correct stale JSON::PP fleet-host claim in lifecycle doc * no-mistakes(review): anchor native-reproduction claims per defect in lifecycle doc * fix(bin): read codex 0.154's idle braille starfield rows as composer furniture (#4532) * fix(composer): read codex 0.154's idle starfield and status footer as furniture codex-cli 0.154.0 animates a braille "starfield" around its idle composer: on the row above the bold `›` prompt row, on the `›` row behind the SGR-2 dim `Ask Codex to do anything` placeholder, and on the row below it, then draws a bright status footer (`<model> <effort>[ fast] · <path> · <title>`). The cells are truecolor greys on both sides of the ghost luminance ceiling, so the brighter ones survive ghost stripping, and the rows below the glyph carry no structural edge. The shared classifier selected the bare `›` shape, extended its wrap region over the two rows beneath the glyph, read the survivors and the footer as wrapped typed input, and answered `pending`; the steering doorbell defers on exactly that verdict, so no doorbell ever reached an idle codex 0.154 pane. bin/fm-composer-lib.sh now recognises that furniture by shape, declared once next to the idle placeholders and reached from the two wrap-region boundary points: - a row whose non-whitespace content is entirely braille cells (U+2800..U+28FF, detected byte-exactly under LC_ALL=C) is furniture: it never counts as wrapped typed content and bounds a bare composer's wrap region; braille behind the glyph row's content is stripped before the emptiness decision when nothing else follows the glyph; a row mixing braille with other text stays typed content; - the codex status footer bounds the wrap region exactly as omp's status row does, anchored on the effort token, a spaced middle dot, and a `~` or `/` path cell, so a typed `fix · tests` stays composer input; - `^Ask Codex to do anything$` joins the verified idle-placeholder set; the ghost strip remains what proves that row empty, and the bare-row rule that bright placeholder text is real input is unchanged. Unchanged: the strict blank-row rule, the styled=0 degradation (a plain cmux/orca capture of this screen still reads `unknown`, never `pending`), FM_COMPOSER_GHOST_LUMA_MAX, and every other harness's shape. tests/fm-composer-lib.test.sh carries both live Herdr samples byte-for-byte with the divergence (letters in place of the starfield read `pending`) and the over-stripping negatives; tests/fm-composer-codex-idle-live-e2e.test.sh is the default-on live guard (token-free, skips explicitly without codex or tmux) that launches the installed codex idle and asserts `empty` through both the tmux and the cursorless styled reads, naming codex --version on failure. docs/verification/runtime-backends.md records the dated Herdr evidence: `pending` before, `empty` after, on the captured screen. * no-mistakes(review): drop unreachable codex footer rule and inert placeholder entry --------- Co-authored-by: Todd Billings <todd@usdvcapital.com> * fix(bin): refuse empty text steers in fm-send (#4259) * fix(bin): refuse empty text steers in fm-send A marked secondmate request sent with an empty message delivered only marker and correlation bytes and minted a pending-reply expectation the parent could never see resolved, stalling the fleet with no loud error (#4255). Fail closed on an empty or whitespace-only message on the text path, mirroring the existing --resolve-key refusal. * chore: retain ambient Pi-lens autoformat as its own commit Formatting-only edits produced by ambient Pi-lens autoformat during the msg-loss investigation, kept separate from the behavioural change in c23acba6 so the fix stays reviewable on its own. AGENTS.md is deliberately excluded: its only autoformat edit stripped the trailing space from the documented FM_OPERATIONAL_PREFIX value, which bin/fm-operational-input.sh:28 defines as "FIRSTMATE_OP: " and line 11 records as permanent compatibility. Documenting that constant without its trailing space makes the doc wrong about the contract, so that one line was restored rather than retained. * fix(calm): paint the working ship one yellow over all-blue water (#4554) On rose-pine-moon the two-color water (cyan crests over blue troughs) read as a pink stripe over aqua, the yellow left sail and mast clashed with the red right sail, and the hull carried a blue interior run. Every water cell is now blue so the swell reads through glyph height alone, and both sail halves, the mast, and the whole hull are one yellow run. Geometry, cadence, animation, direction flip, resize clamping, and the narrow fallback are unchanged. Update the unit and real-TUI color assertions to the new palette and the Calm docs that described the old one. * fix(bin): stop aging a second mate's active turn from its launch (#4270) * fix(watch): stop aging a second mate's active turn from its launch The parent watcher's second-mate wake-loop stall check exempts a mate that is demonstrably inside an active turn, but secondmate_in_active_turn asked busy_turn_over_age first and returned "not in a turn" whenever that said the bound was crossed. busy_turn_over_age ages from state/<task>.turn-ended, falling back to state/<task>.meta. A second mate's turns end in its own home, so the parent never gets a turn-ended mark for it and the fallback ages the mate's last launch. Every mate launched more than BUSY_TURN_MAX_SECS ago was therefore permanently "over age", the busy pane was never consulted, and any turn outstripping FM_SECONDMATE_WAKE_STALL_SECS raised a false wake-loop stall. The gate now bounds the busy exemption by <idle> - how long the queue's drain position has not moved - which is evidence this home actually holds. A busy mate stays exempt while the queue has been frozen for less than BUSY_TURN_MAX_SECS, and a mate stuck busy forever still alarms, so the bound that stops a busy pane from proving liveness forever is kept rather than removed. busy_turn_over_age is untouched; its remaining callers are the ordinary crew busy-pane bound. The regression pins the case that actually broke: a mate whose launch record predates BUSY_TURN_MAX_SECS and which is demonstrably mid-turn must not escalate, while the same mate with its queue frozen past the bound still publishes exactly one notification. The existing coverage only exercised a freshly launched mate, which passes either way. Reaching that alert now costs a pane capture inside the gate, so the three checkpoints in this suite that assert an alert move from a 1s to a 4s bound - the value the neighbouring active-turn cases already use. The bound is a ceiling, not a wait: the checkpoint returns on the first actionable wake. On a loaded machine a 1s bound missed the alert repeatedly; at 4s it did not miss in 20 runs under the same load. * no-mistakes(review): scope the second-mate active-turn regression test's coverage claim * no-mistakes(document): fix stale second-mate active-turn comments in fm-watch * feat(bin): add read-only PR blocker and reviewer discovery commands (#4278) * feat(bin): add read-only PR blocker and reviewer-discovery commands Two focused, opt-in commands that read GitHub and never write to it. fm-pr-state.sh reports what still blocks one pull request from the author's side: a closed or merged state, draft state, unknown or conflicting mergeability, absent or failing required checks, and a blocking CHANGES_REQUESTED decision explained by each reviewer's latest verdict, marked STALE when it was left at a superseded head. A pull request that only awaits an approval is not reported as blocked, and advisory checks are omitted. Every reading is taken against one exact head; a push that lands mid-read invalidates the whole result rather than mixing two snapshots. fm-pr-reviewers.sh suggests reviewers from the most recent commits to the pull request's exact changed paths, counting each commit once, resolving handles through GitHub's own commit author.login mapping, and excluding the author and Bot accounts. Both stay read-only: no review request, no approval, no merge. Unresolved review-thread state is left unreported because the REST API does not expose it and unattended commands may not use GraphQL.

Re-proved the family at all eight members: two consecutive runs, 0 failures, each begun with the one-minute load average below 6.0 so the result measures isolation rather than contention. A third run taken between them is disclosed rather than recorded, because it started while the previous run's workers were still decaying. The new durations are not comparable with the six-member measurement above them, so they are not presented as evidence about the two new members, and that record's 1.72x four-worker figure is left as a statement about its own run rather than restated as current. * no-mistakes(review): disclose gh error-text coupling at its matching site and tests * fix(bin): teach validation-round pauses in generated briefs (#2752) * fix(bin): teach validation-round pauses in briefs * no-mistakes(document): Point classifier comments to authoritative pause examples * docs(readme): add star history chart (#4558) --------- Co-authored-by: Kun Chen <3233006+kunchenguid@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: nateliuroberts <nate@cipherlab.ai> Co-authored-by: Jon Roosevelt <jon@arcs.health> Co-authored-by: AnPod <drejc83@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder-bot <iamacodernow-bot@theinbtw.com> Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <claude@theinbtw.com> Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <170579485+NewAiCoder@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <iamacodernow@theinbtw.com> Co-authored-by: Tiago <tiagop@hey.com> Co-authored-by: Rangezi <46404232+Rangezi@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-authored-by: Pablo Ontiveros <pablo.ontiveros@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Umer <umeranjum17@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Yasuhito Takamiya <yasuhito@hey.com> Co-authored-by: Marsjohn-11 <74795701+Marsjohn-11@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: tbillings28 <todd@toddbillings.com> Co-authored-by: Todd Billings <todd@usdvcapital.com>

* fix: pre-register Claude trust for secondmate homes (#4262) * fix(spawn): pre-register Claude workspace trust for secondmate homes A claude --secondmate launch skipped workspace-trust registration entirely, so a standalone-clone secondmate home (an explicit ~/fm-homes/<id> path) had no store entry and its pane wedged on the "Is this a project you trust?" dialog before it read its charter. The step was gated on the task kind rather than on the harness, so the spawn's fail-closed guard had nothing to run against and reported a launch that could never start work. fm-claude-trust.sh gains a secondmate-home mode. A secondmate home is a whole firstmate instance, produced either as a leased worktree or as a standalone clone, so the linked-worktree test cannot decide it and the seed is the evidence instead: the .fm-secondmate-home marker must be a regular file this user owns naming exactly the id being spawned, the home must hold AGENTS.md and bin/, and each operational directory must resolve inside the home. That is the set fm-home-seed.sh writes and fm-spawn.sh's own home validation re-checks, so nothing wider than a home a secondmate spawn would launch into can earn home-level trust. The worktree path is unchanged, and still refuses a home. fm-spawn.sh now runs the registration for every claude launch and keeps refusing the spawn when it fails, rather than launching an agent that would wedge. * no-mistakes(document): Correct Claude secondmate trust guidance * fix: ignore superseded failed GitHub check runs (#4258) * fix(pr-merge): judge each required check by its current run When the base branch advances, GitHub cancels a pull request's in-flight run and re-triggers it. The cancelled run stays in statusCheckRollup beside the passing re-run, so the rollup can hold several runs of one check name at the same head while GitHub itself reports the pull request CLEAN. github_checks_not_green judged every run independently, so that superseded failure refused a genuinely mergeable pull request and pushed the operator toward a needless --allow-red. Group the rollup by the reported name and judge each check by its current run. Supersession is proven, never assumed: a name leaves the red set only when every one of its non-green runs is strictly older than one of its green runs, dated by the forge's own settled timestamp - a check run's completedAt once its status is COMPLETED, or a status context's createdAt - and only in the whole-second UTC form GitHub emits, which is the one spelling that orders correctly as plain text. A run with no such timestamp is never superseded, so a still-running, queued or undated run keeps its check red, and a name with no green run at all stays red. An unnamed entry is grouped alone so two unrelated unnamed checks are never treated as one. Every comparison is one-directional: it can only clear a failure a later success provably replaced, and never clears a check whose current run failed, is pending, or is missing. No other guard moves - the pull request must still be open, undrafted, mergeable, conflict-free and head-bound, and --allow-red still waives exactly its named check with every other check green. Live reproduction: PR #4224 read CLEAN with an old FAILURE and a newer SUCCESS for one check name and was refused; it now verifies, while #4208 and #4210, whose latest runs failed, still refuse. * no-mistakes(review): Use check-run start times for safe supersession * no-mistakes(document): Clarify GitHub check-rollup documentation * fix(bin): persist merge authority for poll-detected outcomes (#4266) * fix(merge): persist the merge authority on poll-detected merge outcomes The merge ledger tags a merge with the authority that permitted it while the away-posture record existed, but only the direct attended merge in bin/fm-pr-merge.sh recorded it. A merge the forge queued, or one the merge poll detected after the fact, published an untagged row, so exactly the merges no agent watched were the least auditable. bin/fm-merge-authority-lib.sh now owns that answer, read from the same structured sources the merge gate already used: the task's recorded yolo posture and the away-posture record's mechanical grant list, never prose. bin/fm-pr-merge.sh keeps its own refusal wording and gates on that answer; bin/fm-watch.sh only records it on the row its poll publishes, so reading the authority never becomes a second path to a merge. An unresolved answer records an untagged row rather than dropping the outcome or inventing an authority. * no-mistakes(review): Persist canonical merge authority for queued poll outcomes * no-mistakes(review): Harden merge authority persistence against lifecycle races * no-mistakes(review): Serialize poll authority publication with teardown * no-mistakes(document): Clarify persisted merge authority lifecycle * no-mistakes(ci): Added targeted SC2034 suppressions for the two public result assignments in bin/fm-merge-authority-lib.sh. Verified successfully with `CI=true bin/fm-lint.sh` * ci: supersede superseded PR CI and bound unbounded jobs (#4281) The 2026-09-12 Actions starvation incident found firstmate CI with no concurrency deduplication, so every superseded PR head kept its full 13-job fan-out, and four jobs with no timeout at all. Add per-PR supersession keyed on the PR number for pull_request events and on the unique run id for push events, cancelling only pull_request runs, so a new PR head replaces its own in-flight CI while every main push keeps its own group and is never cancelled. Add hang tripwires to the four previously unbounded jobs: 25 minutes for lint (measured at 14-16 minutes) and 5 minutes each for the coverage guard, the timing aggregate, and the repo invariants. Measured lane bounds are unchanged. tests/fm-ci-workflow.test.sh resolves the workflow's concurrency expressions against simulated pull_request and push contexts and holds every job's finite timeout. * test(watch): gate backlog-hold away-record fixture on tasks-axi (#4288) Every other make_hold_home caller in this file skips when tasks-axi is absent; this test was the one unguarded call, so hosts without tasks-axi hard-fail the fixture build instead of skipping. * fix(backlog): bound per-item backlog row reads so a wedged backend cannot blind a session start (#4027) * fix(bin): bound each backlog row read so one wedged backend cannot blind a session start bin/fm-bootstrap.sh's reconcile and close-replay sweeps read the backlog backend once per item through fm_backlog_row_show, and that read was unbounded. A single wedged `tasks-axi show` therefore consumed the whole FM_SESSION_START_TIMEOUT and truncated the digest before the wake queue, supervision instructions, fleet state, and context sections ever printed, leaving the fleet unsupervised with no live watcher. The harm was a blind startup, not a slow one. Bound the read with the existing shared timeout primitive (bin/fm-timeout-lib.sh), so a wedged backend degrades to a loud partial reconcile: the sweep's existing BACKLOG_RECONCILE diagnostic names the item it could not read and the loop continues to the next one. The first bound hit also latches FM_BACKLOG_ROW_SHOW_WEDGED, so a sweep over many items pays one bound rather than one per item and still names every item it skipped, which is what keeps the digest whole on a home carrying a large fleet. The bound holds regardless of any particular tasks-axi install, so it does not depend on the 0.2.5 `show` hang being resolved separately. * fix(bin): set the wedged-backend latch where it survives, and prove it The latch added with the read bound was inert. fm_backlog_row_show runs inside a command substitution in both of its status-capturing callers, so the subshell read the inherited value correctly but its write died with the subshell. Every item still paid a full bound and reported `exceeded`, never `skipped`, which left the large-fleet case the latch existed to cover completely uncovered. Move the write to the two callers that capture the read's status and own the surviving shell, and leave fm_backlog_row_show reading the latch only. Correct the comments that claimed an ownership the function never had. The test that was supposed to cover this asserted only that the second read finished under a generous ceiling, which is true whether or not the latch works. Assert instead that a latched read is strictly faster than one bound and that it reports its own item as skipped, so an inert latch fails the test. * test: cover every item the wedged-backend latch skips The latch assertion exercised a single skipped item, so "every skipped item is still named" was inferred rather than tested. Probe three items instead and assert each skipped one names itself and costs less than a bound. Verified as a real guard by removing both latch writes: the suite then fails on the first skipped item instead of passing. * no-mistakes(review): distinguish backlog read-bound hits from absent rows * no-mistakes(review): preserve read-bound status through the captain verify gates * no-mistakes(review): Preserve backlog read-bound hits through resolve_entry and reconcile instead of spending them as absent rows * no-mistakes(review): Preserve backlog read-bound 124 through migrated-prefix scan and remaining task_show call sites * no-mistakes(document): Document bounded backlog row reads and FM_BACKLOG_ROW_TIMEOUT_SECS * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed all four failing CI checks with one root-cause fix plus one test-heredity fix. (1) bin/fm-captain-hold.sh: task_show carries the row in TASK_SHOW_OUTPUT and emits no stdout, but four call sites still used the stale command-substitution convention show=$(task_show ...), leaving show empty: task_show_or_fail (every captain hold failed with 'did not retain its hold-set stamp' - broke fm-captain-hold-lifecycle in parallel 1 and fm-bearings-board in serial 3), resolve_migrated_entry (migrated-prefix resolution could never match), reconcile-requests (existing rows were refused as absent), and command_open --identity (printed a constant '#0' identity, so fm-watch-triage's re-held captain call inherited the previous call's silence in serial 1). This is also the Greptile P1. Fixed by invoking task_show in the current shell and reading show=$TASK_SHOW_OUTPUT, the convention the other eight call sites already use; read-bound hits still stop loudly by name. (2) tests/fm-backlog-read-bound.test.sh (serial 4, unclassified family): the new e2e half implicitly relied on the author's process tree containing a harness process so fm-lock.sh would grant the fleet lock; on CI runners the lock is refused, the reconcile sweep is skipped, and the final BACKLOG_RECONCILE assertion fails. Reproduced by simulating a CI ancestry via a ps shim, fixed by pinning the lock evidence with the established fake-ps harness fixture pattern from tests/fm-session-start.test.sh. Verified: shellcheck clean; parallel-1, serial-3, and serial-4 lanes fully green locally (failed=0); serial-1 lane green except fm-gemini-harness, which fails only under local Node v26 (comm=node-MainThread); CI's default Node 22 reports comm=node, the branch that test passes on, so it is not a CI failure * no-mistakes(document): Verified bounded backlog read docs accurate across branch * fix(merge): serialize away authority with synchronous merges (#4285) * fix(merge): serialize the away-authority check with a synchronous merge bin/fm-pr-merge.sh read the away-posture record for merge authority (the per-task merge grant and the yolo/away-grant decision) and handed the merge to the forge afterwards. An archive at the captain's return or a grant revoked by a replacement record could land in between, so a merge could proceed on away authority that no longer held. The away record now carries a cross-subsystem lock, built on the existing bounded lock primitive rather than a new lock format: the record-mutating subcommands hold it across their mutation, and the merge holds it across both its authority read and the forge command. Because a queued or auto merge returns before the pull request lands, and would therefore outlive the lock, an away merge is now refused whenever it could land asynchronously: a requested --auto, a base branch whose merge-queue state does not prove an immediate merge, and GitLab's asynchronous flags and configuration. What remains permitted while away is the synchronous merge that lands inside the lock. This closes the common away-record/merge race against a live lock owner. It does not make the merge atomic in every case, and two narrow races are accepted and documented at their sites rather than hidden, both confused-agent-grade in the sense bin/fm-lease-lib.sh already uses: - A merge-queue rule change or a PR base change in the window between the queue-free preflight and the forge call can still enqueue the merge, which can then land after its grant lapses. - Killing the lock-owning shell while its gh or glab child is still running lets stale-owner recovery reclaim the lock and the record be archived or replaced, after which the orphaned child can complete the merge on lapsed authority. Closing either one needs landing verification or an ownership handoff, which is deliberately out of scope here. No existing gate is relaxed. The lock is taken after the live green-at-head verify and the captain-hold check, the in-lock authority read is unchanged, and a lock that cannot be taken refuses the merge rather than proceeding unlocked.

Root cause: the agy spawn fixture's default base PATH (/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin) omits node's directory, but the spawn drives the real bin/fm-agy-trust.sh (which hard-requires node to record trust) and the fixture's fake tmux trust lookup (node -e) under that PATH. On the ubuntu-latest CI runner node lives in the toolcache (/usr/local/bin), so trust pre-registration failed on portable serial 2; on typical Arch hosts node is in /usr/bin, masking the defect. Fix (smallest, following the existing tests/fm-kimi-harness.test.sh precedent of carrying the interpreter's resolved directory): resolve node from the invoking environment (failing the test with 'test needs node' if absent, as kimi does for python3) and prepend its directory to the fixture's default base PATH; the FM_TEST_BASE_PATH override contract is untouched. Verified locally: (1) pre-fix reproduction with a CI-shaped base PATH (system bins minus node) produced exactly the reported failure — 'node is required to record workspace trust and was not found on PATH' plus the fake tmux 'node: command not found'; (2) post-fix, all 29 tests in the file pass both with node available only via a leading non-standard dir in the base PATH (CI's shape) and with the default base PATH on this host. bash -n clean; ShellCheck is not installed in this worktree (previously recorded as environmental) * no-mistakes(test): Give agy typed sends a longer submit-confirm budget * no-mistakes(document): Document agy send budget, trust gate, and control coverage * no-mistakes(document): Document agy busy fallback inventory and send-timing evidence * feat(afk): add quiet supervision mode for a present captain (#4337) * feat(afk): add quiet supervision mode for a present captain Adds a first-class quiet supervision mode alongside /afk for kunchenguid/firstmate#2356: the same away-mode daemon, injection, busy/composer guards, classification policy, and reliability properties, but the captain staying present and chatting no longer exits it - only an explicit /quiet off does. state/.afk's first line now declares its mode (away, the default, or quiet); fm_afk_mode() in bin/fm-wake-lib.sh is the single reader, falling back to away for missing/empty/unreadable/unrecognized content (including the legacy bare-epoch-timestamp format written before mode existed) so nothing regresses. fm_afk_flag_write() preserves the on-disk mode on a bare refresh (no explicit mode given) rather than defaulting to away, which is what keeps the daemon's own redundant terminal-side re-write from silently resetting a captain's quiet mode back to away underneath them. New .agents/skills/quiet/SKILL.md is a thin wrapper cross-referencing /afk for every shared mechanism, per the one-owner rule. AGENTS.md gains the state/.afk table entry and section 8's exit-trigger line. bin/fm-supervision-instructions.sh, bin/fm-session-start.sh, and bin/fm-guard.sh's stale-watcher banner all become mode-aware so a quiet-mode captain is never misdirected to /afk in captain-facing text. Closes #2356 * no-mistakes(review): Fix AFK epoch parsing and quiet-mode digest wording for two-line flag * no-mistakes(document): Fix turnend-guard.md daemon-ownership contract for quiet mode --------- Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <claude@theinbtw.com> Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <170579485+NewAiCoder@users.noreply.github.com> * fix(bin): let verified harness ancestry outrank retained markers (#3) (#3578) * fix(bin): let verified harness ancestry outrank retained markers (#3) * fix(bin): let a structural harness ancestor outrank a retained marker bin/fm-harness.sh treated a verified environment marker as unconditionally authoritative, so a Codex session started from an environment that had retained CLAUDECODE=1 detected as claude. Session start then emitted Claude's Stop-owned supervision protocol to a Codex primary, and every turn end was blocked for missing Claude recovery. The defect is the precedence boundary, not any one harness. codex, opencode, kimi, and muse publish no identity marker at all, so with markers winning outright any retained CLAUDECODE renamed them; the Cursor-before-Claude ordering was a point patch on the same class of problem, and the launch-time marker clearing only ever covered sessions fm-spawn started. Markers and ancestry are now separate evidence layers that detect_own arbitrates: - no ancestry match, or no marker: the single available layer answers, unchanged; - same harness family: the marker's finer verdict stands, so a launch-selected pi-signed is not flattened to pi by an ancestry walk that can only see the shared launcher name; - different harness with a structural (command-name) ancestor: ancestry wins, because only ancestry proves who owns the process tree; - different harness with only a bare-interpreter script-path match: the marker wins, since a harness-shaped path in some node process's arguments is weaker evidence than a harness publishing its own identity. The correction is symmetric: a retained CURSOR_AGENT no longer renames a claude worker nested under cursor either. Adds fm-harness.sh ancestry [<pid>], ancestry evidence with no marker layer, so a real harness process can be asked what the walk makes of it. tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh is the portable regression, built from real renamed processes with no harness installed. Every case drives the two layers apart and asserts each alone as well as the combination, so no case can pass vacuously; it also pins Codex's real two-process install topology, since the fix depends on the native binary being what a tool subprocess meets first. The opt-in drift guard gains the matching live half: each installed harness's real running process must still be identified by the ancestry walk, and it fails naming the harness and version when a release changes that name. Documentation follows the corrected contract in the script header, the harness-adapters detection section, the codex, opencode, kimi, and cursor references, and a dated verification record. * fix(tests): drop the unused argument pass-through in the shim-topology helper bin/fm-lint.sh refused the branch: run_shim declared a `[ancestry]` argument and forwarded "$@", but every call site that varies the environment or passes the ancestry subcommand invokes the shim entry point directly, so the helper is only ever called with no arguments (ShellCheck SC2120/SC2119). Behavior is unchanged: with no arguments "$@" expanded to nothing. * fix(bin): examine the top of the process chain instead of assuming init harness_ancestry stopped as soon as the next pid was 1, on the assumption that pid 1 is always init and can never be a harness. Inside a PID namespace that assumption inverts: the harness itself is pid 1, so the walk never examined the one process that proves who owns the tree, reported no ancestry at all, and handed the verdict straight back to a retained marker. A real Codex session under `codex sandbox`, holding CLAUDECODE=1 and CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT=cli, is exactly that shape: it resolved claude and rendered Claude's Stop-owned supervision protocol even with the marker-vs-ancestry precedence boundary in place. The same probe now resolves codex and renders the Codex foreground checkpoint. A host's real pid 1 (init, systemd, launchd) matches no harness name, so examining it costs one ps call and can introduce no false positive; the walk still stops once that top process has been read, and a non-numeric or zero ppid still ends it. tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh pins the namespace shape with a fake ps that reports every process as bash with ppid 1 and pid 1 as the harness. The case asserts the marker still answers alone when pid 1 is host-shaped, so it cannot pass vacuously, and it fails against the previous stop condition. * docs(verification): record the real-Codex retained-marker evidence The existing record proved the precedence boundary with the portable regression and recorded each installed harness's process name behind the ancestry walk, but it had no evidence from a real Codex process actually holding a retained Claude marker, which is the failure the boundary exists for. Adds the dated before/after result from codex-cli 0.152.0 under `codex sandbox`, with the exact command and the decisive verdict and rendered protocol on each side, and records the second boundary that shape exposed: the walk must examine the top of the process chain, because inside a PID namespace the harness is pid 1. Refreshes the portable regression's observed output for the case it gained. * no-mistakes(review): blind ancestry in marker-pinned harness tests * no-mistakes(review): blind ancestry in the Pi guard-routing test * no-mistakes(review): classify precedence suite, dedupe ps stub, soften claims * no-mistakes(review): model the spawn-and-wait Codex shim topology * no-mistakes(document): correct stale muse marker-clearing detection claims * no-mistakes: apply CI fixes * fix(bin): examine the top of the chain in the lock and nudge walks too The pid-1 defect corrected in bin/fm-harness.sh survived unchanged in the two other harness-ancestry walks, on the exact topology the branch verified against a real Codex process. bin/fm-session-lock-lib.sh's fm_harness_ancestry_pids stopped as soon as the next pid was 1, so a firstmate whose harness is pid 1 of its own PID namespace could not find that harness at all and did not recognize its own session lock. bin/fm-sessionstart-nudge.sh carried the same stop plus a blanket rejection of a lock pid of 1, so the same session was told to run session start again on every turn. Both walks now compare the top process before stopping, matching the shape used in bin/fm-harness.sh. For the lock walk this is safe because fm_harness_process_matches rejects a host's real pid 1. For the nudge, `kill -0` still gates the lock pid, and on a host an unprivileged `kill -0 1` fails, so a lock file that wrongly names pid 1 leaves the hook silent rather than acting on init. Each walk gains one regression case. The lock case drives a deterministic process table whose pid 1 is the harness and asserts a host-shaped pid 1 still finds nothing, so it cannot pass vacuously. The nudge case needs a real PID namespace, because the builtin `kill -0` gate cannot be reached through a fake ps, and it first proves the same fixture nudges with no lock present; it skips explicitly where unprivileged namespaces are unavailable. * no-mistakes(review): assert comm-strength detection from subprocess vantage in drift guard * fix(bin): verify the live harness guard at the strength the guarantee needs The marker-versus-ancestry boundary this branch ships is a strength claim: detect_own hands an args-strength verdict straight back to a retained foreign marker, so a harness is only protected where the ancestry walk reaches it at comm strength. The installed-harness drift guard probed the pane process alone. Under an interpreter shim the pane process IS the shim, whose own script path is args strength, while the native binary that carries comm strength is its child. The guard therefore observed args for Codex, passed, and would have kept passing if a release stopped spawning that native child at all, while real sessions silently regressed to the original bug. fm-harness.sh gains `ancestry-subtree`, which asks the walk from the pane process and every descendant of it, the vantage a tool subprocess actually occupies. The guard now requires comm strength somewhere in that set and requires every vantage to name the same harness. This supersedes the preceding commit's in-guard leaf walk, which reached the same vantage but left the logic inside the test file, where CI could not pin it and nothing else could reuse it. A harness-dependent check needs both halves: `tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh` now carries a portable case proving the subtree probe reaches a strength the top-of-session probe cannot, mutation checked twice, once against the pre-change script and once by disabling descendant enumeration. The subtree walk also avoids depending on tty and process-group semantics that differ between Linux and macOS.

The trust dialog kept working previously only because its check has an ancestor-walk fallback that happens to reach the worktree entry; the external-imports check has no such fallback. Verified by disassembling the installed claude binary and reproducing in an isolated three-way tmux launch: identical flags registered only at the worktree key still showed the external-imports dialog, and registering them at the primary checkout key suppressed both dialogs. fm-claude-trust.sh now registers all three flags on both the worktree entry and the primary-checkout entry in one atomic write, and refuses when the <project> argument is not itself a primary checkout (its own write target would then be wrong).

Extend the helper arm to tests/*-fixture.sh rather than routing it through the tests/fixtures/*/* arm. Both arms resolve consumers with the same reference scan, and that scan is what selects the right suites here: it finds exactly the tests that read the fixture. The fixtures/ arm adds only a directory-keying step, which has nothing to key on for a top-level file, so the helper arm is the same behaviour with no extra machinery. A tests/ path nothing reads still reaches the catch-all and still refuses loudly.

Both read a task's body back with `decode_json`, but tasks-axi shows a scalar field as a JSON-encoded bare string, and an older library rejects that whole value with "must be object or array". The consequence is fleet-wide on such a host, not one broken command: a worker there cannot formally record a decision for the captain at all. It can only mention the decision in passing in a status line, where it can be missed - which is how a real decision goes unrecorded. The hold reports that the task lost its hold-set stamp; the cleanup cannot return the row to Queued. Both call sites now ask for allow_nonref explicitly rather than inheriting whatever the installed library defaults to. The second one is worth naming: its `/\A"/` guard reads as deliberate, but a leading quote is exactly the bare-string case that fails, so the guard selects for the failing input rather than protecting against it. The regression case forces the older default back off for every perl the commands spawn, then drives both paths - holding a task that carries a body, and tearing down a captain-held row whose deliverable must still be appended. It also probes that the simulation genuinely rejects a bare scalar, so the case cannot pass vacuously on a lenient host. Each half was verified failing on its own unfixed call site with that site's real error message. Suites: fm-captain-hold-lifecycle 51 cases, fm-backlog-atomicity 99 cases, 0 failures. Verification limit: the mechanism is reproduced and tested, but neither fix is verified against a real JSON::PP 2.27202 host, because none is in the loop. This laptop runs 4.06, where the bug does not manifest. `bin/fm-procevent-lavish.sh:471` was checked and left alone - it matches a brace-delimited object before decoding, so allow_nonref never applies. * fix(bin): stop cleanup silently dropping accented characters from a held body Cleanup rewrites a captain-held row's body to append the finished work's deliverable, and the decoder it reads that body with printed decoded characters to a stream with no `:raw` layer. A character at or below U+00FF then came out as one latin-1 byte instead of two UTF-8 ones, so a body reading "café" lost the accent. `fm_backlog_retain` writes that body straight back through `--body-file`, and nothing reported an error - the character was simply gone from a row still waiting on the captain. The decoder now writes bytes, the same `binmode STDOUT, ":raw"` plus `utf8::encode` that the sibling decoder in `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh` already used. Review of the parent commit found this on one of the lines that commit already changed. It predates that change. The test asserts bytes rather than decoded strings, because comparing strings cannot tell latin-1 from UTF-8. It uses two separate rows on purpose: any character above U+00FF makes perl print the whole string as UTF-8, so one body carrying both an accent and an em dash passes even unfixed and proves nothing. Verified failing before the fix on the accented row, passing after.

The cells are truecolor greys on both sides of the ghost luminance ceiling, so the brighter ones survive ghost stripping, and the rows below the glyph carry no structural edge. The shared classifier selected the bare `›` shape, extended its wrap region over the two rows beneath the glyph, read the survivors and the footer as wrapped typed input, and answered `pending`; the steering doorbell defers on exactly that verdict, so no doorbell ever reached an idle codex 0.154 pane. bin/fm-composer-lib.sh now recognises that furniture by shape, declared once next to the idle placeholders and reached from the two wrap-region boundary points: - a row whose non-whitespace content is entirely braille cells (U+2800..U+28FF, detected byte-exactly under LC_ALL=C) is furniture: it never counts as wrapped typed content and bounds a bare composer's wrap region; braille behind the glyph row's content is stripped before the emptiness decision when nothing else follows the glyph; a row mixing braille with other text stays typed content; - the codex status footer bounds the wrap region exactly as omp's status row does, anchored on the effort token, a spaced middle dot, and a `~` or `/` path cell, so a typed `fix · tests` stays composer input; - `^Ask Codex to do anything$` joins the verified idle-placeholder set; the ghost strip remains what proves that row empty, and the bare-row rule that bright placeholder text is real input is unchanged. Unchanged: the strict blank-row rule, the styled=0 degradation (a plain cmux/orca capture of this screen still reads `unknown`, never `pending`), FM_COMPOSER_GHOST_LUMA_MAX, and every other harness's shape. tests/fm-composer-lib.test.sh carries both live Herdr samples byte-for-byte with the divergence (letters in place of the starfield read `pending`) and the over-stripping negatives; tests/fm-composer-codex-idle-live-e2e.test.sh is the default-on live guard (token-free, skips explicitly without codex or tmux) that launches the installed codex idle and asserts `empty` through both the tmux and the cursorless styled reads, naming codex --version on failure. docs/verification/runtime-backends.md records the dated Herdr evidence: `pending` before, `empty` after, on the captured screen. * no-mistakes(review): drop unreachable codex footer rule and inert placeholder entry --------- Co-authored-by: Todd Billings <todd@usdvcapital.com> * fix(bin): refuse empty text steers in fm-send (#4259) * fix(bin): refuse empty text steers in fm-send A marked secondmate request sent with an empty message delivered only marker and correlation bytes and minted a pending-reply expectation the parent could never see resolved, stalling the fleet with no loud error (#4255). Fail closed on an empty or whitespace-only message on the text path, mirroring the existing --resolve-key refusal. * chore: retain ambient Pi-lens autoformat as its own commit Formatting-only edits produced by ambient Pi-lens autoformat during the msg-loss investigation, kept separate from the behavioural change in c23acba6 so the fix stays reviewable on its own. AGENTS.md is deliberately excluded: its only autoformat edit stripped the trailing space from the documented FM_OPERATIONAL_PREFIX value, which bin/fm-operational-input.sh:28 defines as "FIRSTMATE_OP: " and line 11 records as permanent compatibility. Documenting that constant without its trailing space makes the doc wrong about the contract, so that one line was restored rather than retained. * fix(calm): paint the working ship one yellow over all-blue water (#4554) On rose-pine-moon the two-color water (cyan crests over blue troughs) read as a pink stripe over aqua, the yellow left sail and mast clashed with the red right sail, and the hull carried a blue interior run. Every water cell is now blue so the swell reads through glyph height alone, and both sail halves, the mast, and the whole hull are one yellow run. Geometry, cadence, animation, direction flip, resize clamping, and the narrow fallback are unchanged. Update the unit and real-TUI color assertions to the new palette and the Calm docs that described the old one. * fix(bin): stop aging a second mate's active turn from its launch (#4270) * fix(watch): stop aging a second mate's active turn from its launch The parent watcher's second-mate wake-loop stall check exempts a mate that is demonstrably inside an active turn, but secondmate_in_active_turn asked busy_turn_over_age first and returned "not in a turn" whenever that said the bound was crossed. busy_turn_over_age ages from state/<task>.turn-ended, falling back to state/<task>.meta. A second mate's turns end in its own home, so the parent never gets a turn-ended mark for it and the fallback ages the mate's last launch. Every mate launched more than BUSY_TURN_MAX_SECS ago was therefore permanently "over age", the busy pane was never consulted, and any turn outstripping FM_SECONDMATE_WAKE_STALL_SECS raised a false wake-loop stall. The gate now bounds the busy exemption by <idle> - how long the queue's drain position has not moved - which is evidence this home actually holds. A busy mate stays exempt while the queue has been frozen for less than BUSY_TURN_MAX_SECS, and a mate stuck busy forever still alarms, so the bound that stops a busy pane from proving liveness forever is kept rather than removed. busy_turn_over_age is untouched; its remaining callers are the ordinary crew busy-pane bound. The regression pins the case that actually broke: a mate whose launch record predates BUSY_TURN_MAX_SECS and which is demonstrably mid-turn must not escalate, while the same mate with its queue frozen past the bound still publishes exactly one notification. The existing coverage only exercised a freshly launched mate, which passes either way. Reaching that alert now costs a pane capture inside the gate, so the three checkpoints in this suite that assert an alert move from a 1s to a 4s bound - the value the neighbouring active-turn cases already use. The bound is a ceiling, not a wait: the checkpoint returns on the first actionable wake. On a loaded machine a 1s bound missed the alert repeatedly; at 4s it did not miss in 20 runs under the same load. * no-mistakes(review): scope the second-mate active-turn regression test's coverage claim * no-mistakes(document): fix stale second-mate active-turn comments in fm-watch * feat(bin): add read-only PR blocker and reviewer discovery commands (#4278) * feat(bin): add read-only PR blocker and reviewer-discovery commands Two focused, opt-in commands that read GitHub and never write to it. fm-pr-state.sh reports what still blocks one pull request from the author's side: a closed or merged state, draft state, unknown or conflicting mergeability, absent or failing required checks, and a blocking CHANGES_REQUESTED decision explained by each reviewer's latest verdict, marked STALE when it was left at a superseded head. A pull request that only awaits an approval is not reported as blocked, and advisory checks are omitted. Every reading is taken against one exact head; a push that lands mid-read invalidates the whole result rather than mixing two snapshots. fm-pr-reviewers.sh suggests reviewers from the most recent commits to the pull request's exact changed paths, counting each commit once, resolving handles through GitHub's own commit author.login mapping, and excluding the author and Bot accounts. Both stay read-only: no review request, no approval, no merge. Unresolved review-thread state is left unreported because the REST API does not expose it and unattended commands may not use GraphQL. Closes #3731 * no-mistakes(review): accept only PR URLs and stop at terminal state * no-mistakes(review): report unconfirmed required checks; make URL-only guards discriminate * no-mistakes(review): stop attributing readings to unverified heads * no-mistakes(review): narrow readiness contract to checks that have reported * no-mistakes(review): read the pull request once, drop the head guard * no-mistakes(document): scope pr-forge isolation proof to its measured members * no-mistakes(document): record uncovered pr-forge members and their pending proof * docs(isolation-proof): re-prove pr-forge at its full membership tests/fm-pr-state.test.sh and tests/fm-pr-reviewers.test.sh joined the pr-forge family in this branch, and script_allows_concurrency grants four workers by family membership alone, so both ran concurrently on a proof measured before they existed. Re-proved the family at all eight members: two consecutive runs, 0 failures, each begun with the one-minute load average below 6.0 so the result measures isolation rather than contention. A third run taken between them is disclosed rather than recorded, because it started while the previous run's workers were still decaying. The new durations are not comparable with the six-member measurement above them, so they are not presented as evidence about the two new members, and that record's 1.72x four-worker figure is left as a statement about its own run rather than restated as current. * no-mistakes(review): disclose gh error-text coupling at its matching site and tests * fix(bin): teach validation-round pauses in generated briefs (#2752) * fix(bin): teach validation-round pauses in briefs * no-mistakes(document): Point classifier comments to authoritative pause examples * docs(readme): add star history chart (#4558) * fix(bin): refuse teardown when a task's endpoint close fails (#4510) * fix(teardown): refuse a cleanup whose endpoint close failed bin/fm-teardown.sh discarded both the exit status and the stderr of every fm_backend_kill call, so a close that genuinely failed was indistinguishable from one that succeeded. Teardown continued past it, deleted the task's durable records, returned its worktree, and reported the cleanup as completed. The deleted metadata is the only record of which endpoint belongs to the task, so such a close did not merely leave a stray session behind, it stranded one: nothing was left on disk naming it. The adapters could not carry that signal either. Driven against the real code, every backend arm returned 0 for a genuine failure exactly as it did for an already-exited endpoint, so there was nothing for the four call sites to propagate even once they stopped swallowing it. The tmux arm now resolves a close that did not succeed against the window's exact recorded identity, since kill-window fails the same way for a window that is gone and one that is still there. The Orca arm reports a close its missing CLI never attempted. Both stay silent for an endpoint that is already legitimately gone, and the remaining arms are unchanged: their close-command timing cannot be established without the real Zellij, Orca, and cmux binaries, and a gate that refused ordinary cleanup of an already-exited session would be worse than the defect. docs/verification/runtime-backends.md records what each backend can prove. A reported close failure now reaches teardown's existing retain-and-stop refusal before the records naming the endpoint are removed, matching where the Herdr confirmed-gone gates already sit for the same hazard, and the retained records let a rerun finish once the close works. * no-mistakes(review): refuse unreadable tmux close re-read; honor --force override * no-mistakes(review): drop unreachable Orca force arm; prove CLI-absent close * no-mistakes(document): document endpoint-close refusal in its backend and retirement owners * no-mistakes(ci): The two reported failing checks are NOT code defects. Both "CI" (run 34935529184) and "Require no-mistakes" (run 34935529206) returned conclusion=action_required with zero jobs and 0s duration (run_started_at == updated_at), which is this repo's workflow-approval gate holding the run before any job starts. No job executed, so nothing in the diff could have caused them; two unrelated branches (fm/captain-hold-json-nonref, fm/presenter-core-l1) show the identical shape in the same time window. Verified the change locally instead: bin/fm-lint.sh clean, bin/fm-test-run.sh --check-coverage ok, and all suites the diff touches pass (fm-teardown-endpoint-safety 25/25 including the five new endpoint-close cases, fm-backend-orca, fm-backend, fm-backend-tmux-smoke, fm-backend-cmux, fm-backend-zellij, fm-backend-herdr). Separately, I found and fixed a genuinely flaky test that the phase rules require me to make deterministic: tests/fm-tmux-agent-liveness.test.sh intermittently failed "an idle shell pane must classify dead" (verdict ambiguous, comms=[bash sleep]). It is selected by --changed for this diff, so it would run against this PR once CI is approved. Root cause, established by instrumenting the pane's process group: the idle window was created by `new-session` with no command, so it inherited tmux's default-shell, i.e. whoever runs the suite. ps on the pane tty showed `-zsh` -> `bash` -> `sleep`, all sharing pgid==tpgid, i.e. the host operator's shell configuration spawning a periodic helper directly into the pane's FOREGROUND process group, which is the one surface the classifier reads. `sleep` classifies as `other`, so fg_other=1 and the verdict became `ambiguous` instead of `dead` whenever that helper overlapped the 10s poll window. Every other window in the suite runs an explicit command via new_window; the idle case was the only one whose process group the host defined. Fix (smallest root-cause, test-only, 1 line + explanatory comment): create the idle window with an explicit bare `/bin/sh` (`-- /bin/sh`), the same shell the neighbouring background case already execs. Its foreground group is now exactly one process (verified: `/bin/sh` alone), so no host configuration can inject into it. This flake is pre-existing and NOT caused by this PR: an interleaved A/B showed base commit da5e658 failing the identical case (2/6 runs) alongside head (3/7 runs), and the diff only extracted the tmux inventory read into a helper with identical semantics while never touching fm_backend_tmux_foreground_comms. After the fix: 8/8 consecutive passes, with lint and the coverage guard still clean.

* fix: pre-register Claude trust for secondmate homes (#4262) * fix(spawn): pre-register Claude workspace trust for secondmate homes A claude --secondmate launch skipped workspace-trust registration entirely, so a standalone-clone secondmate home (an explicit ~/fm-homes/<id> path) had no store entry and its pane wedged on the "Is this a project you trust?" dialog before it read its charter. The step was gated on the task kind rather than on the harness, so the spawn's fail-closed guard had nothing to run against and reported a launch that could never start work. fm-claude-trust.sh gains a secondmate-home mode. A secondmate home is a whole firstmate instance, produced either as a leased worktree or as a standalone clone, so the linked-worktree test cannot decide it and the seed is the evidence instead: the .fm-secondmate-home marker must be a regular file this user owns naming exactly the id being spawned, the home must hold AGENTS.md and bin/, and each operational directory must resolve inside the home. That is the set fm-home-seed.sh writes and fm-spawn.sh's own home validation re-checks, so nothing wider than a home a secondmate spawn would launch into can earn home-level trust. The worktree path is unchanged, and still refuses a home. fm-spawn.sh now runs the registration for every claude launch and keeps refusing the spawn when it fails, rather than launching an agent that would wedge. * no-mistakes(document): Correct Claude secondmate trust guidance * fix: ignore superseded failed GitHub check runs (#4258) * fix(pr-merge): judge each required check by its current run When the base branch advances, GitHub cancels a pull request's in-flight run and re-triggers it. The cancelled run stays in statusCheckRollup beside the passing re-run, so the rollup can hold several runs of one check name at the same head while GitHub itself reports the pull request CLEAN. github_checks_not_green judged every run independently, so that superseded failure refused a genuinely mergeable pull request and pushed the operator toward a needless --allow-red. Group the rollup by the reported name and judge each check by its current run. Supersession is proven, never assumed: a name leaves the red set only when every one of its non-green runs is strictly older than one of its green runs, dated by the forge's own settled timestamp - a check run's completedAt once its status is COMPLETED, or a status context's createdAt - and only in the whole-second UTC form GitHub emits, which is the one spelling that orders correctly as plain text. A run with no such timestamp is never superseded, so a still-running, queued or undated run keeps its check red, and a name with no green run at all stays red. An unnamed entry is grouped alone so two unrelated unnamed checks are never treated as one. Every comparison is one-directional: it can only clear a failure a later success provably replaced, and never clears a check whose current run failed, is pending, or is missing. No other guard moves - the pull request must still be open, undrafted, mergeable, conflict-free and head-bound, and --allow-red still waives exactly its named check with every other check green. Live reproduction: PR #4224 read CLEAN with an old FAILURE and a newer SUCCESS for one check name and was refused; it now verifies, while #4208 and #4210, whose latest runs failed, still refuse. * no-mistakes(review): Use check-run start times for safe supersession * no-mistakes(document): Clarify GitHub check-rollup documentation * fix(bin): persist merge authority for poll-detected outcomes (#4266) * fix(merge): persist the merge authority on poll-detected merge outcomes The merge ledger tags a merge with the authority that permitted it while the away-posture record existed, but only the direct attended merge in bin/fm-pr-merge.sh recorded it. A merge the forge queued, or one the merge poll detected after the fact, published an untagged row, so exactly the merges no agent watched were the least auditable. bin/fm-merge-authority-lib.sh now owns that answer, read from the same structured sources the merge gate already used: the task's recorded yolo posture and the away-posture record's mechanical grant list, never prose. bin/fm-pr-merge.sh keeps its own refusal wording and gates on that answer; bin/fm-watch.sh only records it on the row its poll publishes, so reading the authority never becomes a second path to a merge. An unresolved answer records an untagged row rather than dropping the outcome or inventing an authority. * no-mistakes(review): Persist canonical merge authority for queued poll outcomes * no-mistakes(review): Harden merge authority persistence against lifecycle races * no-mistakes(review): Serialize poll authority publication with teardown * no-mistakes(document): Clarify persisted merge authority lifecycle * no-mistakes(ci): Added targeted SC2034 suppressions for the two public result assignments in bin/fm-merge-authority-lib.sh. Verified successfully with `CI=true bin/fm-lint.sh` * ci: supersede superseded PR CI and bound unbounded jobs (#4281) The 2026-09-12 Actions starvation incident found firstmate CI with no concurrency deduplication, so every superseded PR head kept its full 13-job fan-out, and four jobs with no timeout at all. Add per-PR supersession keyed on the PR number for pull_request events and on the unique run id for push events, cancelling only pull_request runs, so a new PR head replaces its own in-flight CI while every main push keeps its own group and is never cancelled. Add hang tripwires to the four previously unbounded jobs: 25 minutes for lint (measured at 14-16 minutes) and 5 minutes each for the coverage guard, the timing aggregate, and the repo invariants. Measured lane bounds are unchanged. tests/fm-ci-workflow.test.sh resolves the workflow's concurrency expressions against simulated pull_request and push contexts and holds every job's finite timeout. * test(watch): gate backlog-hold away-record fixture on tasks-axi (#4288) Every other make_hold_home caller in this file skips when tasks-axi is absent; this test was the one unguarded call, so hosts without tasks-axi hard-fail the fixture build instead of skipping. * fix(backlog): bound per-item backlog row reads so a wedged backend cannot blind a session start (#4027) * fix(bin): bound each backlog row read so one wedged backend cannot blind a session start bin/fm-bootstrap.sh's reconcile and close-replay sweeps read the backlog backend once per item through fm_backlog_row_show, and that read was unbounded. A single wedged `tasks-axi show` therefore consumed the whole FM_SESSION_START_TIMEOUT and truncated the digest before the wake queue, supervision instructions, fleet state, and context sections ever printed, leaving the fleet unsupervised with no live watcher. The harm was a blind startup, not a slow one. Bound the read with the existing shared timeout primitive (bin/fm-timeout-lib.sh), so a wedged backend degrades to a loud partial reconcile: the sweep's existing BACKLOG_RECONCILE diagnostic names the item it could not read and the loop continues to the next one. The first bound hit also latches FM_BACKLOG_ROW_SHOW_WEDGED, so a sweep over many items pays one bound rather than one per item and still names every item it skipped, which is what keeps the digest whole on a home carrying a large fleet. The bound holds regardless of any particular tasks-axi install, so it does not depend on the 0.2.5 `show` hang being resolved separately. * fix(bin): set the wedged-backend latch where it survives, and prove it The latch added with the read bound was inert. fm_backlog_row_show runs inside a command substitution in both of its status-capturing callers, so the subshell read the inherited value correctly but its write died with the subshell. Every item still paid a full bound and reported `exceeded`, never `skipped`, which left the large-fleet case the latch existed to cover completely uncovered. Move the write to the two callers that capture the read's status and own the surviving shell, and leave fm_backlog_row_show reading the latch only. Correct the comments that claimed an ownership the function never had. The test that was supposed to cover this asserted only that the second read finished under a generous ceiling, which is true whether or not the latch works. Assert instead that a latched read is strictly faster than one bound and that it reports its own item as skipped, so an inert latch fails the test. * test: cover every item the wedged-backend latch skips The latch assertion exercised a single skipped item, so "every skipped item is still named" was inferred rather than tested. Probe three items instead and assert each skipped one names itself and costs less than a bound. Verified as a real guard by removing both latch writes: the suite then fails on the first skipped item instead of passing. * no-mistakes(review): distinguish backlog read-bound hits from absent rows * no-mistakes(review): preserve read-bound status through the captain verify gates * no-mistakes(review): Preserve backlog read-bound hits through resolve_entry and reconcile instead of spending them as absent rows * no-mistakes(review): Preserve backlog read-bound 124 through migrated-prefix scan and remaining task_show call sites * no-mistakes(document): Document bounded backlog row reads and FM_BACKLOG_ROW_TIMEOUT_SECS * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed all four failing CI checks with one root-cause fix plus one test-heredity fix. (1) bin/fm-captain-hold.sh: task_show carries the row in TASK_SHOW_OUTPUT and emits no stdout, but four call sites still used the stale command-substitution convention show=$(task_show ...), leaving show empty: task_show_or_fail (every captain hold failed with 'did not retain its hold-set stamp' - broke fm-captain-hold-lifecycle in parallel 1 and fm-bearings-board in serial 3), resolve_migrated_entry (migrated-prefix resolution could never match), reconcile-requests (existing rows were refused as absent), and command_open --identity (printed a constant '#0' identity, so fm-watch-triage's re-held captain call inherited the previous call's silence in serial 1). This is also the Greptile P1. Fixed by invoking task_show in the current shell and reading show=$TASK_SHOW_OUTPUT, the convention the other eight call sites already use; read-bound hits still stop loudly by name. (2) tests/fm-backlog-read-bound.test.sh (serial 4, unclassified family): the new e2e half implicitly relied on the author's process tree containing a harness process so fm-lock.sh would grant the fleet lock; on CI runners the lock is refused, the reconcile sweep is skipped, and the final BACKLOG_RECONCILE assertion fails. Reproduced by simulating a CI ancestry via a ps shim, fixed by pinning the lock evidence with the established fake-ps harness fixture pattern from tests/fm-session-start.test.sh. Verified: shellcheck clean; parallel-1, serial-3, and serial-4 lanes fully green locally (failed=0); serial-1 lane green except fm-gemini-harness, which fails only under local Node v26 (comm=node-MainThread); CI's default Node 22 reports comm=node, the branch that test passes on, so it is not a CI failure * no-mistakes(document): Verified bounded backlog read docs accurate across branch * fix(merge): serialize away authority with synchronous merges (#4285) * fix(merge): serialize the away-authority check with a synchronous merge bin/fm-pr-merge.sh read the away-posture record for merge authority (the per-task merge grant and the yolo/away-grant decision) and handed the merge to the forge afterwards. An archive at the captain's return or a grant revoked by a replacement record could land in between, so a merge could proceed on away authority that no longer held. The away record now carries a cross-subsystem lock, built on the existing bounded lock primitive rather than a new lock format: the record-mutating subcommands hold it across their mutation, and the merge holds it across both its authority read and the forge command. Because a queued or auto merge returns before the pull request lands, and would therefore outlive the lock, an away merge is now refused whenever it could land asynchronously: a requested --auto, a base branch whose merge-queue state does not prove an immediate merge, and GitLab's asynchronous flags and configuration. What remains permitted while away is the synchronous merge that lands inside the lock. This closes the common away-record/merge race against a live lock owner. It does not make the merge atomic in every case, and two narrow races are accepted and documented at their sites rather than hidden, both confused-agent-grade in the sense bin/fm-lease-lib.sh already uses: - A merge-queue rule change or a PR base change in the window between the queue-free preflight and the forge call can still enqueue the merge, which can then land after its grant lapses. - Killing the lock-owning shell while its gh or glab child is still running lets stale-owner recovery reclaim the lock and the record be archived or replaced, after which the orphaned child can complete the merge on lapsed authority. Closing either one needs landing verification or an ownership handoff, which is deliberately out of scope here. No existing gate is relaxed. The lock is taken after the live green-at-head verify and the captain-hold check, the in-lock authority read is unchanged, and a lock that cannot be taken refuses the merge rather than proceeding unlocked. The away grant stays a structured field; no prose is parsed. * no-mistakes(review): Fix GitHub rollup fixture base branch * no-mistakes(document): Document atomic away-authority merge locking * no-mistakes(ci): Updated two executable GitHub API fixtures to include the required baseRefName. Both previously failing test suites now pass: fm-captain-hold-lifecycle.test.sh and fm-pr-check-security.test.sh. git diff --check also passes * feat(bin): add Antigravity CLI (agy) as third worker/scout adapter (#4200) * feat(agy): verify Antigravity CLI as third worker/scout adapter Detection by anchored ancestry in fm-harness.sh (no marker of its own); bootstrap harness and effort validation; launch template with model and effort mapping plus reachable-catalog model validation; rendered-tail busy fallback in fm-busy-lib.sh with delivery footer in fm-composer-lib.sh; control mechanics with crewmate/scout-only refusal; tmux liveness naming; router entry with concise adapter reference; dated verification record; portable regression plus opt-in live drift guard. Verified live on agy 1.2.0: supervised spawn, durable steering, same-copy relaunch, and exit, with Herdr-native busy agreement. * no-mistakes(review): bound agy model probe, gate trust dialog, narrow busy signature * no-mistakes(review): pre-register agy workspace trust, make readiness gate strict * no-mistakes(review): Close Orca terminal on gate failure; isolate live-guard HOME; tighten agy matching * no-mistakes(document): Document agy adapter in stale harness enumerations * no-mistakes(review): Clamp non-positive FM_AGY_MODELS_TIMEOUT to the default bound * no-mistakes(document): Fix stale test-shard snapshots after agy lane additions * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed ci-3 (tests/fm-agy-harness.test.sh:519). Root cause: the agy spawn fixture's default base PATH (/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin) omits node's directory, but the spawn drives the real bin/fm-agy-trust.sh (which hard-requires node to record trust) and the fixture's fake tmux trust lookup (node -e) under that PATH. On the ubuntu-latest CI runner node lives in the toolcache (/usr/local/bin), so trust pre-registration failed on portable serial 2; on typical Arch hosts node is in /usr/bin, masking the defect. Fix (smallest, following the existing tests/fm-kimi-harness.test.sh precedent of carrying the interpreter's resolved directory): resolve node from the invoking environment (failing the test with 'test needs node' if absent, as kimi does for python3) and prepend its directory to the fixture's default base PATH; the FM_TEST_BASE_PATH override contract is untouched. Verified locally: (1) pre-fix reproduction with a CI-shaped base PATH (system bins minus node) produced exactly the reported failure — 'node is required to record workspace trust and was not found on PATH' plus the fake tmux 'node: command not found'; (2) post-fix, all 29 tests in the file pass both with node available only via a leading non-standard dir in the base PATH (CI's shape) and with the default base PATH on this host. bash -n clean; ShellCheck is not installed in this worktree (previously recorded as environmental) * no-mistakes(test): Give agy typed sends a longer submit-confirm budget * no-mistakes(document): Document agy send budget, trust gate, and control coverage * no-mistakes(document): Document agy busy fallback inventory and send-timing evidence * feat(afk): add quiet supervision mode for a present captain (#4337) * feat(afk): add quiet supervision mode for a present captain Adds a first-class quiet supervision mode alongside /afk for kunchenguid/firstmate#2356: the same away-mode daemon, injection, busy/composer guards, classification policy, and reliability properties, but the captain staying present and chatting no longer exits it - only an explicit /quiet off does. state/.afk's first line now declares its mode (away, the default, or quiet); fm_afk_mode() in bin/fm-wake-lib.sh is the single reader, falling back to away for missing/empty/unreadable/unrecognized content (including the legacy bare-epoch-timestamp format written before mode existed) so nothing regresses. fm_afk_flag_write() preserves the on-disk mode on a bare refresh (no explicit mode given) rather than defaulting to away, which is what keeps the daemon's own redundant terminal-side re-write from silently resetting a captain's quiet mode back to away underneath them. New .agents/skills/quiet/SKILL.md is a thin wrapper cross-referencing /afk for every shared mechanism, per the one-owner rule. AGENTS.md gains the state/.afk table entry and section 8's exit-trigger line. bin/fm-supervision-instructions.sh, bin/fm-session-start.sh, and bin/fm-guard.sh's stale-watcher banner all become mode-aware so a quiet-mode captain is never misdirected to /afk in captain-facing text. Closes #2356 * no-mistakes(review): Fix AFK epoch parsing and quiet-mode digest wording for two-line flag * no-mistakes(document): Fix turnend-guard.md daemon-ownership contract for quiet mode --------- Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <claude@theinbtw.com> Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <170579485+NewAiCoder@users.noreply.github.com> * fix(bin): let verified harness ancestry outrank retained markers (#3) (#3578) * fix(bin): let verified harness ancestry outrank retained markers (#3) * fix(bin): let a structural harness ancestor outrank a retained marker bin/fm-harness.sh treated a verified environment marker as unconditionally authoritative, so a Codex session started from an environment that had retained CLAUDECODE=1 detected as claude. Session start then emitted Claude's Stop-owned supervision protocol to a Codex primary, and every turn end was blocked for missing Claude recovery. The defect is the precedence boundary, not any one harness. codex, opencode, kimi, and muse publish no identity marker at all, so with markers winning outright any retained CLAUDECODE renamed them; the Cursor-before-Claude ordering was a point patch on the same class of problem, and the launch-time marker clearing only ever covered sessions fm-spawn started. Markers and ancestry are now separate evidence layers that detect_own arbitrates: - no ancestry match, or no marker: the single available layer answers, unchanged; - same harness family: the marker's finer verdict stands, so a launch-selected pi-signed is not flattened to pi by an ancestry walk that can only see the shared launcher name; - different harness with a structural (command-name) ancestor: ancestry wins, because only ancestry proves who owns the process tree; - different harness with only a bare-interpreter script-path match: the marker wins, since a harness-shaped path in some node process's arguments is weaker evidence than a harness publishing its own identity. The correction is symmetric: a retained CURSOR_AGENT no longer renames a claude worker nested under cursor either. Adds fm-harness.sh ancestry [<pid>], ancestry evidence with no marker layer, so a real harness process can be asked what the walk makes of it. tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh is the portable regression, built from real renamed processes with no harness installed. Every case drives the two layers apart and asserts each alone as well as the combination, so no case can pass vacuously; it also pins Codex's real two-process install topology, since the fix depends on the native binary being what a tool subprocess meets first. The opt-in drift guard gains the matching live half: each installed harness's real running process must still be identified by the ancestry walk, and it fails naming the harness and version when a release changes that name. Documentation follows the corrected contract in the script header, the harness-adapters detection section, the codex, opencode, kimi, and cursor references, and a dated verification record. * fix(tests): drop the unused argument pass-through in the shim-topology helper bin/fm-lint.sh refused the branch: run_shim declared a `[ancestry]` argument and forwarded "$@", but every call site that varies the environment or passes the ancestry subcommand invokes the shim entry point directly, so the helper is only ever called with no arguments (ShellCheck SC2120/SC2119). Behavior is unchanged: with no arguments "$@" expanded to nothing. * fix(bin): examine the top of the process chain instead of assuming init harness_ancestry stopped as soon as the next pid was 1, on the assumption that pid 1 is always init and can never be a harness. Inside a PID namespace that assumption inverts: the harness itself is pid 1, so the walk never examined the one process that proves who owns the tree, reported no ancestry at all, and handed the verdict straight back to a retained marker. A real Codex session under `codex sandbox`, holding CLAUDECODE=1 and CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT=cli, is exactly that shape: it resolved claude and rendered Claude's Stop-owned supervision protocol even with the marker-vs-ancestry precedence boundary in place. The same probe now resolves codex and renders the Codex foreground checkpoint. A host's real pid 1 (init, systemd, launchd) matches no harness name, so examining it costs one ps call and can introduce no false positive; the walk still stops once that top process has been read, and a non-numeric or zero ppid still ends it. tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh pins the namespace shape with a fake ps that reports every process as bash with ppid 1 and pid 1 as the harness. The case asserts the marker still answers alone when pid 1 is host-shaped, so it cannot pass vacuously, and it fails against the previous stop condition. * docs(verification): record the real-Codex retained-marker evidence The existing record proved the precedence boundary with the portable regression and recorded each installed harness's process name behind the ancestry walk, but it had no evidence from a real Codex process actually holding a retained Claude marker, which is the failure the boundary exists for. Adds the dated before/after result from codex-cli 0.152.0 under `codex sandbox`, with the exact command and the decisive verdict and rendered protocol on each side, and records the second boundary that shape exposed: the walk must examine the top of the process chain, because inside a PID namespace the harness is pid 1. Refreshes the portable regression's observed output for the case it gained. * no-mistakes(review): blind ancestry in marker-pinned harness tests * no-mistakes(review): blind ancestry in the Pi guard-routing test * no-mistakes(review): classify precedence suite, dedupe ps stub, soften claims * no-mistakes(review): model the spawn-and-wait Codex shim topology * no-mistakes(document): correct stale muse marker-clearing detection claims * no-mistakes: apply CI fixes * fix(bin): examine the top of the chain in the lock and nudge walks too The pid-1 defect corrected in bin/fm-harness.sh survived unchanged in the two other harness-ancestry walks, on the exact topology the branch verified against a real Codex process. bin/fm-session-lock-lib.sh's fm_harness_ancestry_pids stopped as soon as the next pid was 1, so a firstmate whose harness is pid 1 of its own PID namespace could not find that harness at all and did not recognize its own session lock. bin/fm-sessionstart-nudge.sh carried the same stop plus a blanket rejection of a lock pid of 1, so the same session was told to run session start again on every turn. Both walks now compare the top process before stopping, matching the shape used in bin/fm-harness.sh. For the lock walk this is safe because fm_harness_process_matches rejects a host's real pid 1. For the nudge, `kill -0` still gates the lock pid, and on a host an unprivileged `kill -0 1` fails, so a lock file that wrongly names pid 1 leaves the hook silent rather than acting on init. Each walk gains one regression case. The lock case drives a deterministic process table whose pid 1 is the harness and asserts a host-shaped pid 1 still finds nothing, so it cannot pass vacuously. The nudge case needs a real PID namespace, because the builtin `kill -0` gate cannot be reached through a fake ps, and it first proves the same fixture nudges with no lock present; it skips explicitly where unprivileged namespaces are unavailable. * no-mistakes(review): assert comm-strength detection from subprocess vantage in drift guard * fix(bin): verify the live harness guard at the strength the guarantee needs The marker-versus-ancestry boundary this branch ships is a strength claim: detect_own hands an args-strength verdict straight back to a retained foreign marker, so a harness is only protected where the ancestry walk reaches it at comm strength. The installed-harness drift guard probed the pane process alone. Under an interpreter shim the pane process IS the shim, whose own script path is args strength, while the native binary that carries comm strength is its child. The guard therefore observed args for Codex, passed, and would have kept passing if a release stopped spawning that native child at all, while real sessions silently regressed to the original bug. fm-harness.sh gains `ancestry-subtree`, which asks the walk from the pane process and every descendant of it, the vantage a tool subprocess actually occupies. The guard now requires comm strength somewhere in that set and requires every vantage to name the same harness. This supersedes the preceding commit's in-guard leaf walk, which reached the same vantage but left the logic inside the test file, where CI could not pin it and nothing else could reuse it. A harness-dependent check needs both halves: `tests/fm-harness-precedence.test.sh` now carries a portable case proving the subtree probe reaches a strength the top-of-session probe cannot, mutation checked twice, once against the pre-change script and once by disabling descendant enumeration. The subtree walk also avoids depending on tty and process-group semantics that differ between Linux and macOS.

The trust dialog kept working previously only because its check has an ancestor-walk fallback that happens to reach the worktree entry; the external-imports check has no such fallback. Verified by disassembling the installed claude binary and reproducing in an isolated three-way tmux launch: identical flags registered only at the worktree key still showed the external-imports dialog, and registering them at the primary checkout key suppressed both dialogs. fm-claude-trust.sh now registers all three flags on both the worktree entry and the primary-checkout entry in one atomic write, and refuses when the <project> argument is not itself a primary checkout (its own write target would then be wrong).

Extend the helper arm to tests/*-fixture.sh rather than routing it through the tests/fixtures/*/* arm. Both arms resolve consumers with the same reference scan, and that scan is what selects the right suites here: it finds exactly the tests that read the fixture.

Both read a task's body back with `decode_json`, but tasks-axi shows a scalar field as a JSON-encoded bare string, and an older library rejects that whole value with "must be object or array". The consequence is fleet-wide on such a host, not one broken command: a worker there cannot formally record a decision for the captain at all. It can only mention the decision in passing in a status line, where it can be missed - which is how a real decision goes unrecorded. The hold reports that the task lost its hold-set stamp; the cleanup cannot return the row to Queued. Both call sites now ask for allow_nonref explicitly rather than inheriting whatever the installed library defaults to. The second one is worth naming: its `/\A"/` guard reads as deliberate, but a leading quote is exactly the bare-string case that fails, so the guard selects for the failing input rather than protecting against it. The regression case forces the older default back off for every perl the commands spawn, then drives both paths - holding a task that carries a body, and tearing down a captain-held row whose deliverable must still be appended. It also probes that the simulation genuinely rejects a bare scalar, so the case cannot pass vacuously on a lenient host. Each half was verified failing on its own unfixed call site with that site's real error message. Suites: fm-captain-hold-lifecycle 51 cases, fm-backlog-atomicity 99 cases, 0 failures. Verification limit: the mechanism is reproduced and tested, but neither fix is verified against a real JSON::PP 2.27202 host, because none is in the loop. This laptop runs 4.06, where the bug does not manifest. `bin/fm-procevent-lavish.sh:471` was checked and left alone - it matches a brace-delimited object before decoding, so allow_nonref never applies. * fix(bin): stop cleanup silently dropping accented characters from a held body Cleanup rewrites a captain-held row's body to append the finished work's deliverable, and the decoder it reads that body with printed decoded characters to a stream with no `:raw` layer. A character at or below U+00FF then came out as one latin-1 byte instead of two UTF-8 ones, so a body reading "café" lost the accent. `fm_backlog_retain` writes that body straight back through `--body-file`, and nothing reported an error - the character was simply gone from a row still waiting on the captain. The decoder now writes bytes, the same `binmode STDOUT, ":raw"` plus `utf8::encode` that the sibling decoder in `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh` already used. Review of the parent commit found this on one of the lines that commit already changed. It predates that change. The test asserts bytes rather than decoded strings, because comparing strings cannot tell latin-1 from UTF-8. It uses two separate rows on purpose: any character above U+00FF makes perl print the whole string as UTF-8, so one body carrying both an accent and an em dash passes even unfixed and proves nothing. Verified failing before the fix on the accented row, passing after.

The cells are truecolor greys on both sides of the ghost luminance ceiling, so the brighter ones survive ghost stripping, and the rows below the glyph carry no structural edge. The shared classifier selected the bare `›` shape, extended its wrap region over the two rows beneath the glyph, read the survivors and the footer as wrapped typed input, and answered `pending`; the steering doorbell defers on exactly that verdict, so no doorbell ever reached an idle codex 0.154 pane. bin/fm-composer-lib.sh now recognises that furniture by shape, declared once next to the idle placeholders and reached from the two wrap-region boundary points: - a row whose non-whitespace content is entirely braille cells (U+2800..U+28FF, detected byte-exactly under LC_ALL=C) is furniture: it never counts as wrapped typed content and bounds a bare composer's wrap region; braille behind the glyph row's content is stripped before the emptiness decision when nothing else follows the glyph; a row mixing braille with other text stays typed content; - the codex status footer bounds the wrap region exactly as omp's status row does, anchored on the effort token, a spaced middle dot, and a `~` or `/` path cell, so a typed `fix · tests` stays composer input; - `^Ask Codex to do anything$` joins the verified idle-placeholder set; the ghost strip remains what proves that row empty, and the bare-row rule that bright placeholder text is real input is unchanged. Unchanged: the strict blank-row rule, the styled=0 degradation (a plain cmux/orca capture of this screen still reads `unknown`, never `pending`), FM_COMPOSER_GHOST_LUMA_MAX, and every other harness's shape. tests/fm-composer-lib.test.sh carries both live Herdr samples byte-for-byte with the divergence (letters in place of the starfield read `pending`) and the over-stripping negatives; tests/fm-composer-codex-idle-live-e2e.test.sh is the default-on live guard (token-free, skips explicitly without codex or tmux) that launches the installed codex idle and asserts `empty` through both the tmux and the cursorless styled reads, naming codex --version on failure. docs/verification/runtime-backends.md records the dated Herdr evidence: `pending` before, `empty` after, on the captured screen. * no-mistakes(review): drop unreachable codex footer rule and inert placeholder entry --------- Co-authored-by: Todd Billings <todd@usdvcapital.com> * fix(bin): refuse empty text steers in fm-send (#4259) * fix(bin): refuse empty text steers in fm-send A marked secondmate request sent with an empty message delivered only marker and correlation bytes and minted a pending-reply expectation the parent could never see resolved, stalling the fleet with no loud error (#4255).

Geometry, cadence, animation, direction flip, resize clamping, and the narrow fallback are unchanged. Update the unit and real-TUI color assertions to the new palette and the Calm docs that described the old one. * fix(bin): stop aging a second mate's active turn from its launch (#4270) * fix(watch): stop aging a second mate's active turn from its launch The parent watcher's second-mate wake-loop stall check exempts a mate that is demonstrably inside an active turn, but secondmate_in_active_turn asked busy_turn_over_age first and returned "not in a turn" whenever that said the bound was crossed. busy_turn_over_age ages from state/<task>.turn-ended, falling back to state/<task>.meta. A second mate's turns end in its own home, so the parent never gets a turn-ended mark for it and the fallback ages the mate's last launch. Every mate launched more than BUSY_TURN_MAX_SECS ago was therefore permanently "over age", the busy pane was never consulted, and any turn outstripping FM_SECONDMATE_WAKE_STALL_SECS raised a false wake-loop stall. The gate now bounds the busy exemption by <idle> - how long the queue's drain position has not moved - which is evidence this home actually holds. A busy mate stays exempt while the queue has been frozen for less than BUSY_TURN_MAX_SECS, and a mate stuck busy forever still alarms, so the bound that stops a busy pane from proving liveness forever is kept rather than removed. busy_turn_over_age is untouched; its remaining callers are the ordinary crew busy-pane bound. The regression pins the case that actually broke: a mate whose launch record predates BUSY_TURN_MAX_SECS and which is demonstrably mid-turn must not escalate, while the same mate with its queue frozen past the bound still publishes exactly one notification. The existing coverage only exercised a freshly launched mate, which passes either way. Reaching that alert now costs a pane capture inside the gate, so the three checkpoints in this suite that assert an alert move from a 1s to a 4s bound - the value the neighbouring active-turn cases already use. The bound is a ceiling, not a wait: the checkpoint returns on the first actionable wake. On a loaded machine a 1s bound missed the alert repeatedly; at 4s it did not miss in 20 runs under the same load. * no-mistakes(review): scope the second-mate active-turn regression test's coverage claim * no-mistakes(document): fix stale second-mate active-turn comments in fm-watch * feat(bin): add read-only PR blocker and reviewer discovery commands (#4278) * feat(bin): add read-only PR blocker and reviewer-discovery commands Two focused, opt-in commands that read GitHub and never write to it. fm-pr-state.sh reports what still blocks one pull request from the author's side: a closed or merged state, draft state, unknown or conflicting mergeability, absent or failing required checks, and a blocking CHANGES_REQUESTED decision explained by each reviewer's latest verdict, marked STALE when it was left at a superseded head. A pull request that only awaits an approval is not reported as blocked, and advisory checks are omitted. Every reading is taken against one exact head; a push that lands mid-read invalidates the whole result rather than mixing two snapshots. fm-pr-reviewers.sh suggests reviewers from the most recent commits to the pull request's exact changed paths, counting each commit once, resolving handles through GitHub's own commit author.login mapping, and excluding the author and Bot accounts. Both stay read-only: no review request, no approval, no merge. Unresolved review-thread state is left unreported because the REST API does not expose it and unattended commands may not use GraphQL. Closes #3731 * no-mistakes(review): accept only PR URLs and stop at terminal state * no-mistakes(review): report unconfirmed required checks; make URL-only guards discriminate * no-mistakes(review): stop attributing readings to unverified heads * no-mistakes(review): narrow readiness contract to checks that have reported * no-mistakes(review): read the pull request once, drop the head guard * no-mistakes(document): scope pr-forge isolation proof to its measured members * no-mistakes(document): record uncovered pr-forge members and their pending proof * docs(isolation-proof): re-prove pr-forge at its full membership tests/fm-pr-state.test.sh and tests/fm-pr-reviewers.test.sh joined the pr-forge family in this branch, and script_allows_concurrency grants four workers by family membership alone, so both ran concurrently on a proof measured before they existed. Re-proved the family at all eight members: two consecutive runs, 0 failures, each begun with the one-minute load average below 6.0 so the result measures isolation rather than contention. A third run taken between them is disclosed rather than recorded, because it started while the previous run's workers were still decaying. The new durations are not comparable with the six-member measurement above them, so they are not presented as evidence about the two new members, and that record's 1.72x four-worker figure is left as a statement about its own run rather than restated as current. * no-mistakes(review): disclose gh error-text coupling at its matching site and tests * fix(bin): teach validation-round pauses in generated briefs (#2752) * fix(bin): teach validation-round pauses in briefs * no-mistakes(document): Point classifier comments to authoritative pause examples * docs(readme): add star history chart (#4558) * fix(bin): refuse teardown when a task's endpoint close fails (#4510) * fix(teardown): refuse a cleanup whose endpoint close failed bin/fm-teardown.sh discarded both the exit status and the stderr of every fm_backend_kill call, so a close that genuinely failed was indistinguishable from one that succeeded. Teardown continued past it, deleted the task's durable records, returned its worktree, and reported the cleanup as completed. The deleted metadata is the only record of which endpoint belongs to the task, so such a close did not merely leave a stray session behind, it stranded one: nothing was left on disk naming it. The adapters could not carry that signal either. Driven against the real code, every backend arm returned 0 for a genuine failure exactly as it did for an already-exited endpoint, so there was nothing for the four call sites to propagate even once they stopped swallowing it. The tmux arm now resolves a close that did not succeed against the window's exact recorded identity, since kill-window fails the same way for a window that is gone and one that is still there. The Orca arm reports a close its missing CLI never attempted. Both stay silent for an endpoint that is already legitimately gone, and the remaining arms are unchanged: their close-command timing cannot be established without the real Zellij, Orca, and cmux binaries, and a gate that refused ordinary cleanup of an already-exited session would be worse than the defect. docs/verification/runtime-backends.md records what each backend can prove. A reported close failure now reaches teardown's existing retain-and-stop refusal before the records naming the endpoint are removed, matching where the Herdr confirmed-gone gates already sit for the same hazard, and the retained records let a rerun finish once the close works. * no-mistakes(review): refuse unreadable tmux close re-read; honor --force override * no-mistakes(review): drop unreachable Orca force arm; prove CLI-absent close * no-mistakes(document): document endpoint-close refusal in its backend and retirement owners * no-mistakes(ci): The two reported failing checks are NOT code defects. Both "CI" (run 34935529184) and "Require no-mistakes" (run 34935529206) returned conclusion=action_required with zero jobs and 0s duration (run_started_at == updated_at), which is this repo's workflow-approval gate holding the run before any job starts. No job executed, so nothing in the diff could have caused them; two unrelated branches (fm/captain-hold-json-nonref, fm/presenter-core-l1) show the identical shape in the same time window. Verified the change locally instead: bin/fm-lint.sh clean, bin/fm-test-run.sh --check-coverage ok, and all suites the diff touches pass (fm-teardown-endpoint-safety 25/25 including the five new endpoint-close cases, fm-backend-orca, fm-backend, fm-backend-tmux-smoke, fm-backend-cmux, fm-backend-zellij, fm-backend-herdr). Separately, I found and fixed a genuinely flaky test that the phase rules require me to make deterministic: tests/fm-tmux-agent-liveness.test.sh intermittently failed "an idle shell pane must classify dead" (verdict ambiguous, comms=[bash sleep]). It is selected by --changed for this diff, so it would run against this PR once CI is approved. Root cause, established by instrumenting the pane's process group: the idle window was created by `new-session` with no command, so it inherited tmux's default-shell, i.e. whoever runs the suite. ps on the pane tty showed `-zsh` -> `bash` -> `sleep`, all sharing pgid==tpgid, i.e. the host operator's shell configuration spawning a periodic helper directly into the pane's FOREGROUND process group, which is the one surface the classifier reads. `sleep` classifies as `other`, so fg_other=1 and the verdict became `ambiguous` instead of `dead` whenever that helper overlapped the 10s poll window. Every other window in the suite runs an explicit command via new_window; the idle case was the only one whose process group the host defined. Fix (smallest root-cause, test-only, 1 line + explanatory comment): create the idle window with an explicit bare `/bin/sh` (`-- /bin/sh`), the same shell the neighbouring background case already execs. Its foreground group is now exactly one process (verified: `/bin/sh` alone), so no host configuration can inject into it. This flake is pre-existing and NOT caused by this PR: an interleaved A/B showed base commit da5e658 failing the identical case (2/6 runs) alongside head (3/7 runs), and the diff only extracted the tmux inventory read into a helper with identical semantics while never touching fm_backend_tmux_foreground_comms. After the fix: 8/8 consecutive passes, with lint and the coverage guard still clean. Change left uncommitted in the working tree * feat(calm): add flag-gated Claude Code Calm mode (#4565) * feat(calm): ship the Claude Code Calm and sailboat mod behind the function-hooks flag Add .claude/mods/firstmate-calm, a Claude Code mod (function-hooks plugin) that brings Calm to Claude Code: the sailboat replaces the stock working row through a Raster repainted on the sprite's own tick, and tool, tool-group, mid-turn narration, and canonically classified operational user rows draw at zero height. /calm is registered by the hooks module itself and toggles the same per-home config/calm preference the Pi extension uses, so one choice applies on either harness; rows redraw retroactively on toggle and stay hidden across claude --continue. The mod loads only while Claude Code's default-off CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS flag is on. Nothing sets that flag in any settings file, and the plugin carries no command file, skill, agent, or classic hook, so it is a complete no-op while the flag is off. The trusted project auto-loads it through an .agents/skills symlink, the only path Claude Code scans for project plugins. Extract the working-ship geometry, bounce track, cadences, and freeze/resume state into a harness-neutral sprite core inside the mod (Claude Code refuses hooks-module imports from outside the plugin folder) and have the Pi widget paint that core's frames as standard ANSI, byte for byte as before; the Pi suite stays green. Classify operational rows through a port of bin/fm-operational-input.sh's classify command guarded by a corpus parity test against the shell owner. Tests: portable Node checks (plugin shape, sprite parity with Pi's rendering, Raster packing, policy, classifier parity), the mod's own claude plugin test suites behind a default-on wrapper, and an opt-in live TUI guard proving the flag-off no-op, the moving boat, hidden rows, the persisted toggle, and resume on Claude Code 2.1.272. Docs: record the version-scoped Claude Code evidence and the three bounded gaps in docs/calm-mode-feasibility.md, describe the Claude Code contract in docs/calm.md, and make the shared preference, layout, and contributor notes harness-neutral. * no-mistakes(review): Preserve colliding final replies and strengthen parser parity * no-mistakes(review): Preserve final replies and strengthen canonical parity checks * no-mistakes(review): Require exact function-hooks opt-in before Calm activation * no-mistakes(review): Clarify Calm module loading and activation boundaries * no-mistakes(review): Reset Calm presentation state across session starts * no-mistakes(document): Refresh Calm session lifecycle documentation * feat(calm): paint the Claude Code working ship in Claude's own theme colors The captain picked the "Claude native" palette for the Claude Code mod's Raster: every water cell takes the spinner blue of the active theme family (#93a5ff dark, #5769f7 light) and the whole boat takes the Claude orange of the stock spinner (#d77757), one water color and one boat color. The family follows the `theme` setting's prefix, read at load through $.config.list and re-read on a config.set of that row, with `auto` and custom themes falling back to the dark set. The Pi extension keeps its standard ANSI blue and yellow, byte for byte. Rename the shared sprite's color classes from hue names to `water` and `boat`, since each harness now maps them to its own colors; geometry, motion, cadence, and the activation gate are untouched. Tests cover both palettes' packing and the family rule under Node, and the plugin kit drives every theme value, a theme change mid-session, the Calm-off pass-through, and inertness of the menu read while the flag is off. The docs describe the Claude Code colors and record the guard passing on 2.1.273. * no-mistakes(review): Use light palette for unresolved Claude themes * no-mistakes(document): Refresh Claude Calm verification evidence * fix(bin): honour a declared wait before wedge-escalating a quiet pane (#4586) * fix(watch): honour a declared wait before wedge-escalating a quiet pane wedge_timer_check escalated on elapsed idle time alone. Nothing asked whether the worker had already said why its pane was quiet, so a lane that declared a bounded external wait climbed the escalation ladder for as long as the wait lasted, and past FM_WEDGE_DEMAND_INSPECT_COUNT every repeat carried demand-deep-inspection - which by its own wording forbids re-absorbing on the run-step or pane state, so the supervisor could not use the evidence that was there either. The generated brief promises that declaring `paused:` buys the long recheck cadence instead of a wedge, but the timer was still reachable while that declaration stood: a crew that declares a wait and then has an active run or busy pane attributed to it is handed to the timer as provably-working. The declaration is what the worker said about its own silence, so it now outranks a liveness verdict that only says something is running. The consult runs in the at-threshold branch that was about to escalate, beside the worktree walk already there, and costs one status-line read. Either status-line record defers to the same FM_PAUSE_RESURFACE_SECS recheck the declared-wait absorber already uses, so the wait is still rechecked and cannot rot invisibly. Which verb declared it decides the wording, because the two block on different people: a `paused:` wait is owed by an external dependency and asks the reader to confirm it still holds, while a `captain-held:` transfer is owed by the captain reading the recheck and asks them to answer or release the hold. A hold is not rechecked at all while the away-posture record exists, as on every other captain-held path, and that absorb arms no throttle so the recheck is owed in full on return. A declared clearing time that has already passed stops counting, and a lane that never declared one keeps the identical escalation schedule, reason, count and demand-deep-inspection wording, so detection and its worst-case time are unchanged. The deferral restarts the idle timer rather than cancelling it, so a lane that stops waiting escalates again within one threshold. A lane quiet because its own validation run is parked at a gate awaiting a human decision is deliberately out of scope: reading that state needs a signal carrying who the wait is on and what clears it, rather than one inferred from a parked verdict that also covers gates awaiting the crewmate itself. Tests pin both direction…

Closes #4343
Intent
Port fork fix (PR #36): treat an acked watcher-down recovery marker as no gap on the return brief, closing upstream issue #4343
What Changed
health_snapshot()inbin/fm-afk-return.shnow parses the.watcher-downrecovery marker withfm_recovery_marker_snapshotand only reports a "GAP: watcher downtime" line when the marker's token is notacked:*(i.e. stillpending:*/announced:*or unparseable); anacked:*marker, which means the episode was already handled during the away window, no longer surfaces as an open gap.test_return_brief_does_not_report_an_acked_watcher_down_marker_as_a_gapintests/fm-afk-return.test.sh) that writes anacked:downtime:...marker and asserts the return brief reports "no detected gap" instead of the GAP line.Risk Assessment
✅ Low: A two-file, ~13-line behavioral change scoped to a single call site; it correctly narrows the existing conservative "any marker present = gap" check to exclude only the acked:* terminal state (verified fully-handled via fm-wake-drain.sh), preserves gap-reporting for pending/announced/unparseable markers (confirmed against the existing sibling test), and ships a test that exercises the real binary's observable output.
Testing
Drove the real fm-afk-return.sh CLI end-to-end (not just the test harness) for acked, pending, and malformed watcher-down marker states, confirming the acked case now clears as 'no detected gap' while pending and malformed states still correctly gap; also reproduced the described regression against the pre-fix binary and confirmed the fix removes it, then ran the full existing test file green with no leftover worktree changes.
