feat(scripts): task lifecycle commands and metadata - #578
Conversation
Eight fix commits from the runtime-hardening audit, replayed onto current main. No new commands: `rename`, the `add_session` rewrite and the workflow.md changes are deliberately not here. - path containment chokepoint in `resolve_task_dir`: candidate and tasks directory are both resolved before comparing, the tasks directory itself is rejected, and `find_task_by_name` refuses separators and ambiguous suffixes. Replaces a check that only required containment in the repo root. - task create / archive / link collisions fail safely instead of silently overwriting or nesting - JSON read and write failures are surfaced throughout the task runtime, with a strict/tolerant read split in `io.py` - lifecycle hooks gain a timeout and full failure diagnostics; on timeout the whole hook process tree is killed, not just its leader - config parsing consolidated with unified truthy semantics - empty title or description is rejected at `task.py create` before any filesystem write - archive auto-commit retries on a transient `index.lock` - non-list `children` and the advisory `stat()` in validate are guarded `task-children-normalization.integration.test.ts` sets `.trellis/.developer` in its setup instead of relying on TRELLIS_DEVELOPER, which is part of the worktree-identity change that is not in this PR.

08-08-task-rename. New rename subcommand renames the task directory (keeping the date prefix), rewrites task.json identity fields and parent/children/legacy subtasks back-references in other tasks, and rewrites jsonl context paths under the task directory; references elsewhere under .trellis/ are reported but left untouched. --dry-run prints the change set from the same plan structure the apply path executes. New slugs pass create's sanitization; existing destinations and archived names are refused. Real-execution tests cover the parent+children rename with a zero-dangling-reference scan, dry-run/apply parity, and all refusals. Both script trees updated together.

…re archive 07-27-validate-task-branch-metadata-before-archive (rescoped: base_branch resolution landed upstream earlier). task.py start now records the checked-out branch into a null branch field (explicit values never clobbered; detached HEAD and non-git repos noted and skipped). Archive validates branch metadata before the move: missing branch on PR-backed tasks and base_branch == branch fail with errors naming the exact set-branch/set-base-branch repair commands; a recorded branch deleted after merge stays a non-fatal warning; an escape hatch covers legitimately branchless tasks. Real-execution tests cover recording, non-clobbering, detached HEAD, both failure modes, the escape hatch, and the post-merge warning. Both script trees updated together. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_017Qa6GmqwXdKGd19d2b8oqP
08-08-developer-worktree-provisioning. Developer resolution now follows a documented precedence: --assignee, TRELLIS_DEVELOPER env var, the checkout's own .trellis/.developer, then read-only inheritance from the main checkout's .developer when running in a linked worktree (detected via git rev-parse --git-common-dir). Nothing is copied into the worktree and no tracked file carries identity. The no-identity error now names all resolution options. Real-execution tests cover the full precedence chain, worktree inheritance, and the no-identity error path. Both script trees updated together. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_017Qa6GmqwXdKGd19d2b8oqP
task.py create no longer seeds implement.jsonl/check.jsonl with an _example placeholder row: sub-agent platforms get empty files and the curation instructions move to the create console output. task.py validate now rejects legacy _example rows (and non-object JSON rows) with per-line remediation messages, matching the downstream PR preflight scaffolding rule, while empty manifests and curated rows keep validating clean. cmd_list_context gets the same non-object guard. Existing active-task manifests migrated (placeholder rows stripped); bundled workflow, skill, hook, and agent guidance updated across all platform mirrors to describe the placeholder as legacy.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The PR adds task lifecycle behavior and shared file-reading hooks, but the hook copies contain a race that can redirect reads outside the intended project boundary when filesystem paths change concurrently.

Pull request overview
This PR expands the Trellis task script “product surface” by adding safer lifecycle commands and metadata handling (rename, branch capture/validation, worktree developer identity), and by aligning JSONL manifest creation/validation behavior with downstream preflight rules. It also updates the various packaged templates/docs/hooks so the new contracts are consistent across bundled distributions.
Changes:
- Add/extend task lifecycle behavior:
task.py rename, record current branch atstart, and validate branch metadata atarchive. - Improve runtime safety/robustness: stricter task-dir resolution + archive collision refusal, hardened hook execution (timeouts, diagnostics), and index.lock-aware
git addstaging. - Align JSONL manifest contract: create manifests empty, reject legacy
{"_example": ...}placeholder rows invalidate, and harden againststat()races.

Inline comments:
In @.agents/skills/trellis-brainstorm/SKILL.md:
- Line 170: Update cmd_start to validate implement.jsonl and check.jsonl before
activating the task or running after_start, requiring each manifest to contain
at least one real spec/research entry and rejecting empty or _example-only
manifests with a nonzero status. Preserve the inline workflow exception, which
loads context through trellis-before-dev.
In @.agents/skills/trellis-continue/SKILL.md:
- Line 34: Update the routing condition for the trellis-continue workflow to use
the parsed count of manifest entries containing file fields, routing any
zero-entry result—including manifests with skipped rows lacking file—to step
1.3. Apply this change in .agents/skills/trellis-continue/SKILL.md line 34 and
.claude/commands/trellis/continue.md line 29, preserving the existing handling

In @.claude/skills/trellis-brainstorm/SKILL.md:
- Line 170: Update the Pi trellis-brainstorm skill to require at least one real
spec/research entry in both implement.jsonl and check.jsonl before task.py start
for sub-agent workflows, rejecting empty or _example-only manifests; preserve
the inline-workflow exception where Phase 2 loads context through
trellis-before-dev, and align the guidance with the existing continuation
prompt.
In @.omp/commands/trellis-continue.md:
- Line 28: Update the route condition in .omp/commands/trellis-continue.md at
line 28 so Phase 1.3 is selected when either implement.jsonl or check.jsonl is
uncurated, including empty or legacy-only _example manifests. Apply the same

repointing. Keep the existing error handling and return behavior unchanged.
In @.trellis/spec/cli/backend/platform-integration.md:
- Around line 1412-1413: The validation matrix and required test specify
different empty list-context output literals. Update the relevant entries around
the empty implement.jsonl case and the required test to use one exact shared
string, including consistent parentheses.
In @.trellis/spec/cli/backend/script-conventions.md:
- Line 2431: Update the create_parser example to register the --description
argument used by the create command invocation, while preserving the existing
title and --slug arguments.
In @.trellis/spec/docs-site/docs/sync-on-change.md:
- Around line 180-184: Update the “Created state” contract to state that task.py
create writes implement.jsonl and check.jsonl only on sub-agent-capable
platforms; document that Codex inline mode omits these manifests, matching the
platform integration and script conventions.
In `@packages/cli/src/templates/trellis/scripts/common/task_context.py`:
- Around line 285-306: In the task-context row validation flow, update the
handling after extracting file_path and before calling
_resolve_context_entry_path to reject any non-string file value, including
truthy values such as integers. Report the row as invalid using the existing
error-counting and display pattern, while preserving the current behavior for
missing paths and valid string paths.

Use one JSONL key contract across documentation, injection, and validation.
The changed documentation says rows without file are skipped, but the existing reader accepts path as a fallback while validation recognizes only file. This can inject a path-only row without counting it as a curated entry.

Confirmed as a real inconsistency, but it predates this PR and I am not fixing it here.
inject-subagent-context.py does item.get("file") or item.get("path") while _validate_jsonl keys on file only — so a path-only row is injected but never counted as curated. That divergence is on main today; the only change here is a doc line clarifying which rows readers skip.
Settling it means picking a direction (teach validation about path, or drop the alias from the injector and migrate existing rows) and touching the injector for every platform. Worth its own issue — say the word and I will open one with this thread linked.

@sdelmas, please open a follow-up issue and link this thread.
The inconsistency is valid, but it predates this PR. A separate issue can choose one JSONL contract for file and path, define any migration, and list every platform injector and validator that must change. This matches the existing guidance to handle pre-existing cross-platform divergence as a dedicated parity change.

Learning: In mindfold-ai/Trellis, `inject-subagent-context.py` accepts `item.get("file") or item.get("path")`, while `_validate_jsonl` recognizes curated JSONL entries only through `file`. This pre-existing `file`/`path` contract mismatch must be handled as a dedicated cross-platform follow-up, not as a drive-by fix in unrelated pull requests.

- run_task_hooks relied on Popen's context manager, whose exit calls wait() with no timeout. If _kill_hook_tree failed outright the lifecycle command would block there forever -- the exact hang the timeout exists to prevent. Cleanup is now explicit and bounded by HOOK_KILL_GRACE_SECONDS. - read_json_checked caught FileNotFoundError and OSError. UnicodeDecodeError is neither, so a task.json that is not UTF-8 escaped both handlers and surfaced as a traceback. It now reports JSON_READ_UNDECODABLE, named as an encoding problem rather than a parse error. - cmd_start printed a generic 'Task not found' on stdout after resolve_task_dir had already named the exact reason on stderr, splitting one diagnosis across two streams and burying the specific message. Two regression tests added; both fail without their fix. Also rewords a test fixture comment that asserted TRELLIS_DEVELOPER is unimplemented -- true on this branch, misleading once the lifecycle PR stacks on it.
Rename now migrates session pointers instead of leaving them naming a directory that no longer exists: `repoint_task_in_sessions` rewrites every session whose `current_task` is the renamed task, the rename plan discloses it, and `_plan_reported_refs` stops listing session files as "reported (not rewritten)" — they are rewritten. Ref resolution deliberately does not go through `_canonical_task_ref`, which requires the directory to exist and so cannot name the old side of a completed move. `task.py validate` reports a non-string `file` value instead of raising TypeError on the row it exists to report. Spec fixes: the list-context empty literal now matches the script (`(no curated entries yet)`), the argparse example registers the `--description` its own epilog passes, and the sync-on-change manifest contract is qualified to sub-agent-capable platforms — Codex inline mode, Kilo, Antigravity and Devin get neither jsonl file. Both regression tests were confirmed falsifiable: each fails with its fix reverted and passes with it in place. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

`read_json_checked` learned UnicodeDecodeError, but the tolerant `read_json` beside it did not — and that is the one every session-runtime read goes through. A session file that is not UTF-8 therefore raised straight out of a function whose entire contract is to return None, so the hook path failed instead of degrading to "no active task". The spec table now names the value each `JSON_READ_*` constant carries and which exception produces it, so the reason namespace is no longer half constant names and half bare strings. Verified falsifiable: with the exception removed from the tolerant reader the new test fails on `expected 'Traceback (most recent call last):…' not to contain 'UnicodeDecodeError'`.

The copy-paste example caught only FileNotFoundError and JSONDecodeError, two exceptions short of both the contract table above it and the actual implementation in common/io.py.

Reviewed as product surface plus the stacked-on-#576 mechanics: rename resolves through the same containment chokepoint and checks both active and archived collisions before any move, with idempotent resume on write failure; branch metadata recorded at start and validated at archive is a strict superset of the #399 warn-only behavior (stale branch still warns, only self-targeting/missing PR metadata blocks, with --skip-branch-validation). Resolved the post-#576-squash merge conflicts (all take-branch-side, verified mirrors identical) and pushed the merge. Full CLI suite on the resolved tree: 1881/1881 pass; lint, typecheck, lint:py clean.

* fix(scripts): harden the task script runtime Eight fix commits from the runtime-hardening audit, replayed onto current main. No new commands: `rename`, the `add_session` rewrite and the workflow.md changes are deliberately not here. - path containment chokepoint in `resolve_task_dir`: candidate and tasks directory are both resolved before comparing, the tasks directory itself is rejected, and `find_task_by_name` refuses separators and ambiguous suffixes. Replaces a check that only required containment in the repo root. - task create / archive / link collisions fail safely instead of silently overwriting or nesting - JSON read and write failures are surfaced throughout the task runtime, with a strict/tolerant read split in `io.py` - lifecycle hooks gain a timeout and full failure diagnostics; on timeout the whole hook process tree is killed, not just its leader - config parsing consolidated with unified truthy semantics - empty title or description is rejected at `task.py create` before any filesystem write - archive auto-commit retries on a transient `index.lock` - non-list `children` and the advisory `stat()` in validate are guarded `task-children-normalization.integration.test.ts` sets `.trellis/.developer` in its setup instead of relying on TRELLIS_DEVELOPER, which is part of the worktree-identity change that is not in this PR. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(scripts): add task.py rename with atomic back-reference rewrite 08-08-task-rename. New rename subcommand renames the task directory (keeping the date prefix), rewrites task.json identity fields and parent/children/legacy subtasks back-references in other tasks, and rewrites jsonl context paths under the task directory; references elsewhere under .trellis/ are reported but left untouched. --dry-run prints the change set from the same plan structure the apply path executes. New slugs pass create's sanitization; existing destinations and archived names are refused. Real-execution tests cover the parent+children rename with a zero-dangling-reference scan, dry-run/apply parity, and all refusals. Both script trees updated together.

Archive validates branch metadata before the move: missing branch on PR-backed tasks and base_branch == branch fail with errors naming the exact set-branch/set-base-branch repair commands; a recorded branch deleted after merge stays a non-fatal warning; an escape hatch covers legitimately branchless tasks.

Developer resolution now follows a documented precedence: --assignee, TRELLIS_DEVELOPER env var, the checkout's own .trellis/.developer, then read-only inheritance from the main checkout's .developer when running in a linked worktree (detected via git rev-parse --git-common-dir). Nothing is copied into the worktree and no tracked file carries identity. The no-identity error now names all resolution options. Real-execution tests cover the full precedence chain, worktree inheritance, and the no-identity error path. Both script trees updated together.

Existing active-task manifests migrated (placeholder rows stripped); bundled workflow, skill, hook, and agent guidance updated across all platform mirrors to describe the placeholder as legacy. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_017Qa6GmqwXdKGd19d2b8oqP * fix(scripts): close three review findings in the hardened runtime - run_task_hooks relied on Popen's context manager, whose exit calls wait() with no timeout. If _kill_hook_tree failed outright the lifecycle command would block there forever -- the exact hang the timeout exists to prevent. Cleanup is now explicit and bounded by HOOK_KILL_GRACE_SECONDS. - read_json_checked caught FileNotFoundError and OSError. UnicodeDecodeError is neither, so a task.json that is not UTF-8 escaped both handlers and surfaced as a traceback. It now reports JSON_READ_UNDECODABLE, named as an encoding problem rather than a parse error. - cmd_start printed a generic 'Task not found' on stdout after resolve_task_dir had already named the exact reason on stderr, splitting one diagnosis across two streams and burying the specific message. Two regression tests added; both fail without their fix. Also rewords a test fixture comment that asserted TRELLIS_DEVELOPER is unimplemented -- true on this branch, misleading once the lifecycle PR stacks on it. * fix(scripts): close the slice-E review findings on task lifecycle Rename now migrates session pointers instead of leaving them naming a directory that no longer exists: `repoint_task_in_sessions` rewrites every session whose `current_task` is the renamed task, the rename plan discloses it, and `_plan_reported_refs` stops listing session files as "reported (not rewritten)" — they are rewritten. Ref resolution deliberately does not go through `_canonical_task_ref`, which requires the directory to exist and so cannot name the old side of a completed move. `task.py validate` reports a non-string `file` value instead of raising TypeError on the row it exists to report. Spec fixes: the list-context empty literal now matches the script (`(no curated entries yet)`), the argparse example registers the `--description` its own epilog passes, and the sync-on-change manifest contract is qualified to sub-agent-capable platforms — Codex inline mode, Kilo, Antigravity and Devin get neither jsonl file. Both regression tests were confirmed falsifiable: each fails with its fix reverted and passes with it in place. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(scripts): let the tolerant JSON read degrade on non-UTF-8 too `read_json_checked` learned UnicodeDecodeError, but the tolerant `read_json` beside it did not — and that is the one every session-runtime read goes through. A session file that is not UTF-8 therefore raised straight out of a function whose entire contract is to return None, so the hook path failed instead of degrading to "no active task". The spec table now names the value each `JSON_READ_*` constant carries and which exception produces it, so the reason namespace is no longer half constant names and half bare strings. Verified falsifiable: with the exception removed from the tolerant reader the new test fails on `expected 'Traceback (most recent call last):…' not to contain 'UnicodeDecodeError'`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(spec): sync the read_json example with the shipped reader The copy-paste example caught only FileNotFoundError and JSONDecodeError, two exceptions short of both the contract table above it and the actual implementation in common/io.py. A reader following the example would write a "tolerant" reader that still raises on I/O failures and non-UTF-8 bytes.

Final slice of the #534 resplit:
f8d5de5f+00ae5af4+0740d1d6+0b6577d3, kept as four separate commits.You asked to look at this one as product surface rather than as a diff, so:
1.
task.py rename <name> <new-slug> [--dry-run]Renaming a task was a hand-edited multi-file operation: the directory name, the identity fields in
task.json, the parent'schildrenarray, the child'sparentfield, and the jsonl manifests all had to move together. Missing one left a dangling back-reference the resolver would later trip over.renamedoes all of it in one pass, and every step is idempotent — if a write fails partway, the task is still at its old name, the failure names the file, and re-running the identical command finishes the job.Refusals, all before anything is touched: an existing active name, an archived name, the task's own current name, a task that is already archived, or a
<new-slug>carrying a different date prefix (the task's own prefix is normalized away with a warning — a rename keeps the original creation date, never today's).2. Branch metadata: recorded at
start, validated atarchivetask.py startrecords the current branch on the task.archivevalidates that metadata before the task leaves the active tree, because once it is underarchive/<YYYY-MM>/the association is unrecoverable — the reason to check here and not later.A branch that no longer exists locally only warns: that is the normal shape of a merged-and-deleted branch, not an error.
--skip-branch-validationis there for the cases that are genuinely branchless.3. Developer identity in linked worktrees
.trellis/.developerlives in the main working tree. In agit worktreeevery command that needs an identity —create,list --mine, journal writes — failed withNo developer set, which reads as "you never ran init" rather than "you are in a worktree".Resolution now follows a linked worktree back to its main working tree, and
TRELLIS_DEVELOPERoverrides it for CI and for shared checkouts.4. JSONL manifests: empty, not seeded
implement.jsonl/check.jsonlwere seeded ontask createwith a self-describing{"_example": "..."}row. The row was documented as optional-to-delete, consumers skipped it, but PR preflight rejected it — so a task could passtask.py validateand fail preflight on the same file.They are now created empty, and
validaterejects the placeholder exactly as preflight does. Includes the migration that strips the row from this repo's own 16 task manifests.What is not here: the
workflow.mdhunksf8d5de5fand0b6577d3also edit.trellis/workflow.mdand its packaged twin — one line documentingrename, three describing the empty-manifest gate. I reverted both out of this branch, and I want to be explicit about why rather than let it look like an oversight.packages/cli/test/templates/trellis.test.tsassertsmarketplace/workflows/native/workflow.mdis byte-identical topackages/cli/src/templates/trellis/workflow.md. So anyworkflow.mdedit is red until the submodule pointer moves — and the pointer cannot move, because the pinned commit7310a50cis not an ancestor ofmindfold-ai/marketplace@main. It is an orphan offd286b2c;mainwentcfb2f38→a478b28(DSH), and thetask_errorblock7310a50cadded never landed onmain. Both sides have drifted, in opposite directions.That is pre-existing sync debt and reconciling it is not this PR's job — shipping it red is exactly the failure mode that sank #534. So:
main.workflow.mdedits land as a one-file follow-up. Happy to open it, or to fold the hunks back in here if you would rather take the red and bump the pointer in one go.The skill-level docs describing the same behavior (
brainstorm.md,continue.md, thetrellis-metareferences) are included — they carry no mirror assertion.Scrub
Four task-artifact directories carried by the source commits were dropped:
08-08-task-rename,07-27-validate-task-branch-metadata-before-archive,08-08-developer-worktree-provisioning,07-23-align-task-validation-preflight.No
.trellis/workspace/, no task archives, no fork identity — version stays0.6.15— no marketplace or docs-site gitlink change..trellis/scriptsis byte-identical topackages/cli/src/templates/trellis/scripts.Testing
Fully green, including the marketplace mirror test.
