…d#3823) * fix(bin): stop ringing steering doorbells into dead panes The steering-inbox doorbell was a plain sentence plus Enter typed into a worker's pane, and the watcher re-rang it on the assumption that a ring is free. In a pane whose agent has exited that line is a shell command, and the re-ring ladder kept typing it into a shell that can never acknowledge it. - Prefix the doorbell with the shell no-op `: ` so a bare shell executes nothing while a live worker still reads the same self-describing line. `#` is not used because interactive zsh does not treat it as a comment by default and the claude harness binds it to memory mode. - fm_task_inbox_ring skips the pane (return 3) when the backend positively classifies the agent as dead; missing, ambiguous, unreadable, and unverified endpoints still ring so a blind classifier never starves a live worker. - The watcher caps the ladder for a dead pane: one stale wake for recovery, no ring, no ladder walk, and the durable record stays for stuck-crewmate-recovery. fm-send and the remote steer leg report the skip. Tests cover the no-op in real shells, the dead/live/unclassifiable ring verdicts, and the single-surfacing watcher path. * no-mistakes(review): Quote doorbell paths against shell injection * no-mistakes(review): Reject terminal-control paths before ringing * no-mistakes(review): Document accepted partial doorbell delivery race * no-mistakes(review): Skip unavailable endpoints before busy-state handling * no-mistakes(test): Respect shell startup PATH in environment allowlist test * no-mistakes(test): Fix doorbell test fixtures for endpoint liveness * no-mistakes(test): Prioritize confirmed restarts and clean shell test syntax * no-mistakes(document): Document dead and missing doorbell recovery * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed the persistence-reply timeout race by rechecking for a correlated reply immediately before falling back to a nudge. Added a deterministic regression covering replies arriving between the preliminary resolution pass and timeout handling. Verified with the targeted restart suite, project lint, coverage guard, bash syntax checks, and diff checks
…tree poll (kunchenguid#3834) * fix(spawn): keep the worktree poll from adopting the repository primary After `treehouse get` is sent, the worktree-discovery poll reads the pane's foreground-process cwd. While treehouse is still fetching and checking a slot out, the foreground process is treehouse itself and it reports the repository's PRIMARY checkout as its cwd for several seconds. The poll accepted any path that merely differed from the spawning project, so from a linked spawning home - whose project is itself a worktree of that repository - it adopted the primary, and the isolation guard then refused a launch whose slot treehouse went on to create normally. Screen every candidate with the isolation guard's own conditions, extracted as spawn_worktree_isolated, so a read the guard would reject stays a transient the poll keeps waiting through. The two-consecutive-reads rule and the guard as final backstop are unchanged; a pane that never reaches an isolated worktree still fails at the existing 60s deadline, now naming the last path it reported. The already-settled timing assertion counted whole-spawn wall time against a 5s budget and failed on unmodified HEAD on slower machines; it now counts pane reads, which is what "one confirming read, not an extra cycle" actually means. * fix(spawn): say which path the worktree wait rejected, and why Screening every discovery-poll candidate means a host that never reaches an isolated worktree spends the whole 60s window before refusing. That wait is deliberate - separating a transient from a terminal misconfiguration needs machinery this path does not want - so the refusal explains itself instead: the isolation check records why a candidate failed, and the deadline names the last path seen together with that reason. Message and diagnostics only; the poll's control flow is unchanged. Two suites asserted the guard's wording on paths the poll now rejects rather than adopts, so their refusal arrives from the deadline instead: realign fm-tangle-guard's non-git and subdirectory-of-primary cases (each now also asserting the stated reason, and the second the metadata absence it was missing) and the herdr projection e2e's forced non-worktree cwd. * no-mistakes(review): stub poll sleep in tangle-guard spawn isolation test * no-mistakes(document): document spawn poll isolation screen in fm-spawn header * test(spawn): make the non-git isolation case non-git anywhere The refusal-reason assertion for a path outside any repository assumed TMPDIR is not inside a git repository. Where it is, git walks up from the temporary directory, finds that repository, and the spawn reports the subdirectory cause instead - so the case passed or failed on a property of the host rather than on the behaviour under test. Build the path under a directory the test then names in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES, which git documents as not chdir-ing up into a listed directory while looking for a repository. Git never excludes the directory being searched, so the ceiling is the parent of the path handed to the spawn. The assertions pin which cause fired rather than the sentence that explains it, leaving the operator wording free to improve. * no-mistakes(document): point spawn poll comment at the isolation screen's comparison * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed the "Behavior portable serial 2" failure in tests/fm-tangle-guard.test.sh ("non-worktree spawn did not say why the path was rejected (missing: 'not inside a git worktree')"). Root cause, in this PR's code: bin/fm-spawn.sh's spawn_worktree_isolated resolved the git toplevel with `wt_top_real=$(cd "$SPAWN_WT_TOP" ...)`. For a path in no repository, `git rev-parse --show-toplevel` yields empty, and `cd ""` is a SUCCESSFUL no-op on bash before 5.3 (CI's ubuntu-latest ships bash 5.2). The empty toplevel therefore resolved to fm-spawn's own cwd — the CI checkout — so the poll reported "it is a subdirectory of worktree root '/home/runner/work/firstmate/firstmate'" instead of the correct "it is not inside a git worktree". Dev machines with bash 5.3 fail `cd ""`, which is why the suite passed locally and only failed on CI; it is a genuine shell-portability defect in the reason vocabulary this change added, not a test-environment artifact. Fix (smallest root-cause change, 1 line + comment, bin/fm-spawn.sh:2168-2173): guard the empty value so it never reaches `cd` — if [ -n "$SPAWN_WT_TOP" ] && ! wt_top_real=$(cd "$SPAWN_WT_TOP" 2>/dev/null && pwd -P); then No change to the poll's timing or deadline behavior (respecting the recorded refusal-latency and spawn-wt-reason-vocabulary decisions), no new tests, no other files touched. Verification: - Reproduced the exact CI failure locally by putting bash 3.2 (same `cd ""` semantics as CI's 5.2) first on PATH: fails before the fix with the identical message shape, passes after. - tests/fm-tangle-guard.test.sh passes under both bash 3.2 and bash 5.3. - tests/fm-spawn-worktree-settle.test.sh and tests/fm-spawn-pool-base-freshen.test.sh pass; shellcheck -x bin/fm-spawn.sh clean. - bin/fm-test-run.sh --changed: 46 suites completed, every FM_TEST_END exit=0, 1076 passing assertions, 0 "not ok" (including fm-tangle-guard, fm-control-relaunch, fm-lint). The run ended on my own 900s wall-clock cap (rc=124), not on any test failure

…d as not failed (kunchenguid#3846) * fix(bin): read an orphaned green ci monitor as held-for-merge, not failed A no-mistakes run held for a captain merge decision keeps its ci step polling until merged or closed; when the shared daemon restarts under that poll, the run is recorded failed although every substantive step completed and GitHub reports the PR green. A monitor whose only remaining job is to observe a human decision must not convert the absence of that decision into a failure verdict. fm-crew-state.sh now reclassifies a terminal failed run as done (held-for-merge), surfacing the run's PR URL, when the steps table shows every step completed except exactly ci failed and the ci log's last recognized marker reads checks green. A genuinely red check, an unreadable ci log, or a second failed step keeps the failure. * no-mistakes(review): Read daemon-down coarse failed ledger as unknown, not failed * no-mistakes(document): docs: align AGENTS.md failed-verdict guidance with crew-state reclassification
…livery (kunchenguid#3852) * fix(bin): read preserved spawn state back before the interrupted exit claims it The deferred-signal exit path asserted the paired task record and In-flight backlog state were preserved without reading either back, exactly when a reader is least able to check (fm-yi4j evidence, 2026-09-05). The commit's exit status alone has been observed to agree with a row that did not actually move. The exit path now re-reads the record and the row under the same per-task lock as the commit, repairs a row the commit believed it moved, and phrases the error as exactly what was verified or attempted - verified preserved, repaired and verified, or an explicit preservation-could-not-be-verified with the reason and hand-closeout instruction. Two behavior tests drive a lying tasks-axi start through a real interrupted spawn and assert the printed claim and the real backlog state agree. * no-mistakes(test): Fix calm suite for Pi 0.85 and pin test umask * no-mistakes(document): Document interrupted-spawn preservation claim in backlog gate owner * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed the Greptile P1 in bin/fm-spawn.sh's deferred-signal exit path: during preservation verification, the no-op HUP/INT/TERM re-trap combined with an unresponsive `tasks-axi show`/`start` (bash cannot run traps while a foreground child runs) held the per-task meta lock - and every lifecycle operation waiting on it - indefinitely. Root-cause fix: bound every tasks-axi invocation made under the lock. bin/fm-backlog-transition-lib.sh gains fm_tasks_axi, an exec-based wrapper (GNU timeout, gtimeout fallback) used by fm_backlog_row_show and fm_backlog_mutate that preserves the exact process placement of the plain tasks-axi call; bin/fm-spawn.sh sets FM_TASKS_AXI_TIMEOUT (default 30s) at the commit point so both the commit and the read-back verification are bounded. A timed-out call fails through the existing error plumbing and probe/mutate name the timeout as the reason, so the interrupted exit path prints honest 'preservation could not be verified ... (reason)' wording - never intent phrased as outcome, matching the author's intent. Added a behavior test in tests/fm-backlog-atomicity.test.sh that drives a real interrupted spawn through a lying tasks-axi whose repair start never answers; it asserts the spawn exits promptly (self-bounded by an outer timeout), the attempted wording names the timeout, and the printed claim agrees with the real record/backlog state. Confirmed the test fails on the unfixed tree and passes with the fix. Verified: fm-backlog-atomicity (83 ok), fm-transition-lib, fm-backlog-handoff, fm-captain-hold, fm-teardown, fm-fleet-snapshot-view, fm-secondmate-reconcile, fm-spawn-batch, fm-spawn-dispatch-profile, fm-task-delivery, fm-control-relaunch all pass; bin/fm-lint.sh clean. The fm-bootstrap 'unsplit run lost its local diagnostic' failure reproduces on the pristine base commit and is unrelated to this change * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed the Greptile P1 in bin/fm-backlog-transition-lib.sh: fm_tasks_axi bounded tasks-axi only through GNU timeout/gtimeout and fell through to an unbounded exec on hosts with neither (stock macOS), so an unresponsive call could hold the per-task meta lock forever during interrupted-spawn verification. Root-cause fix: the bound now has no unbounded path. GNU timeout is preferred, gtimeout next, then a small perl watchdog (fork + waitpid WNOHANG polling at 50ms, TERM on expiry, one bound of grace, then KILL, exit 124 so the callers' existing timeout plumbing reports it; exit statuses and output pass through unchanged). Polling was chosen over alarm+die to avoid perl's platform-dependent syscall-restart semantics. When a bound is requested but no bounding mechanism exists, the call fails closed (exit 127 with a diagnostic) rather than running unbounded, so the interrupted exit path prints honest attempted wording, never intent as outcome. The unbounded exec remains only for the no-bound plain-call case. Added three behavior tests in tests/fm-backlog-atomicity.test.sh driving fm_tasks_axi through a PATH with no timeout binary: a hanging stub must exit 124 within the bound (verified to fail on the pre-fix code), a failing stub's status/output must pass through, and a tool-less PATH must fail closed with the diagnostic. Verified: fm-backlog-atomicity 86/86 ok, fm-transition-lib, fm-backlog-handoff, fm-teardown, fm-spawn-batch, fm-task-delivery, fm-fleet-snapshot-view, fm-secondmate-reconcile, fm-control-relaunch, fm-spawn-dispatch-profile all pass; bin/fm-lint.sh clean * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed the Greptile P1 on bin/fm-backlog-transition-lib.sh: fm_tasks_axi's GNU timeout and gtimeout paths sent TERM at the bound but had no kill-after, so a tasks-axi that ignores SIGTERM kept the bounded call - and the per-task meta lock - held indefinitely during interrupted-spawn verification. Root-cause fix: both GNU execs now carry -k "$bound" (TERM at the bound, KILL after one further bound of grace), giving every bounded path the same forced-termination contract the perl watchdog already had. Because GNU timeout exits 137 (128+SIGKILL) when the kill-after fires - versus 124 for a TERM expiry - the probe/mutate timeout detection now goes through a new fm_tasks_axi_timeout_expired helper that treats 124 and 137 alike, so the interrupted exit path still names the timeout as the reason; the helper keeps the bound check in one place. Added a behavior test in tests/fm-backlog-atomicity.test.sh that drives fm_tasks_axi through a real GNU timeout with a tasks-axi stub that traps and ignores TERM (the ignored disposition survives exec into sleep) and asserts a bound-expiry status plus completion within bound+grace; on the pre-fix code the suite hangs until killed, confirming the reproduction. Verified: fm-backlog-atomicity 87/87 ok, fm-transition-lib, fm-backlog-handoff, fm-spawn-batch, fm-task-delivery, fm-teardown, fm-secondmate-reconcile, fm-control-relaunch, fm-spawn-dispatch-profile, fm-captain-hold-lifecycle all pass; bin/fm-lint.sh clean
…3821) * docs: correct stale tmux/herdr backend maturity claims Herdr now has 21 test files, its own required CI job (tests-herdr) that installs a pinned build and hard-fails on "skip: herdr not found", while tmux has 3 test files and is only required as a dependency of the portable-serial e2e lane. zellij, orca, and cmux still have no CI lane at all. AGENTS.md and docs/herdr-backend.md still called Herdr merely "experimental" alongside those three, misleading every session and reader about actual coverage. Update AGENTS.md's config/backend entry, the opening lines of docs/herdr-backend.md and docs/tmux-backend.md, the runtime-backend section of docs/configuration.md, and the matching claims in docs/architecture.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, and README.md so they agree and distinguish tmux (default), herdr (own required CI lane, largest suite, Windows still spike-only), and zellij/orca/cmux (still experimental, no CI lane). No behavior, selection order, or dispatch logic changes.

* fix: delete deterministic no-mistakes test baseline, restore intent-targeted Test PR kunchenguid#3644 pinned commands.test to a fm-test-run.sh --changed walk of the repository's 75-162 tests/*.test.sh scripts. no-mistakes runs commands.test verbatim and unconditionally after every fix round, so that walk multiplied by round count: measured at 32.7 minutes per validation versus 3.6 minutes intent-targeted. Delete the pin and restore the 3.6-minute posture. Add tests/fm-nm-test-contract.test.sh as a regression guard, parsing .no-mistakes.yaml as YAML (ruby's bundled Psych, matching the parser tests/fm-test-run.test.sh already uses for ci.yml) rather than grepping its text, restoring in legal form what PR kunchenguid#823 added and PR kunchenguid#1282 removed. Record the rule in docs/configuration.md's "Gate defaults" section (the authoritative owner CONTRIBUTING.md already points at) and strengthen CONTRIBUTING.md's existing local-Test guidance to state it plainly: never configure commands.test to a deterministic test command, complete or partial.

* fix(bin): verify pool-slot ownership before returning a worktree slot Workers were killed when cleanup returned a Treehouse pool slot that a different, live task had already taken. Teardown now proves the slot is genuinely this task's before releasing it: it refuses when another task record claims the same live worktree path, or when the endpoint's working directory contradicts the recorded slot, and that refusal holds under --force. Slot allocation, metadata publication, ownership verification, and slot return are serialized across linked firstmate homes, and forced secondmate cleanup verifies descendant slot ownership before returning any child worktree. Regression coverage drives the scripts with two task records naming one slot path and asserts the live worker survives and its slot is not reset. * no-mistakes(review): Protect slots across cloned Firstmate homes * no-mistakes(test): Gate teardown locking on genuine Treehouse slots * no-mistakes(test): Clarify pooled descendant slot gating * no-mistakes(test): Synchronize watcher re-arm test on process exit * no-mistakes(test): Wait for watcher cleanup before timeout escalation * no-mistakes(document): Document pool-slot ownership safeguards * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed all reported CI issues: normalized bare local Git origins to the same Treehouse project-lock identity as absolute clone origins; resolved ShellCheck SC1091 with explicit conditional sourcing; and taught concurrent Herdr teardown coverage to retry expected Treehouse lock contention.

…ndmate, and primary (kunchenguid#3867) * feat: add verified omp (Oh My Pi) harness adapter for crew, secondmate, and primary Add omp as a verified harness: anchored process-name detection with a Firstmate-owned FM_OMP_HARNESS launch marker that needs real omp ancestry, the fm-spawn launch template with foreign-marker clearing, the tracked .omp/fm-worker-overlay.yml posture overlay, --auto-approve, --cwd, and pre-launch model validation scoped to providers 'omp models --json' lists. Workers get a state-resident busy-state extension keyed on agent_end without willContinue (omp has no agent_settled). The primary gets two tracked .omp/extensions: a turn-end guard that answers omp's blocking session_stop hook by compelling one continuation per turn, with the pre-tool seatbelts and Run-tier session-start delivery, and a watcher extension ported from the Pi one with fm_watch_arm_omp. Control tables, composer busy footers, omp's status row as a bare-composer boundary, the extension supervision model with an omp-keyed ownership proof, the session-start diagnostic, and the supervision protocol snippet follow. Verified live on omp 18.1.11 with openai-codex/gpt-6-astra: a Herdr scout through spawn, busy state, steer, interrupt, exit, and teardown, and the isolated rpc primary lab through extension auto-discovery, digest delivery, lock identity, watcher arm, successor and wake delivery, and the compelled guard continuation.

Root cause of "Behavior portable serial 1" and "Behavior portable parallel 2": the omp busy regex (FM_DELIVERY_OMP_BUSY_REGEX_DEFAULT) and omp status-row furniture regex (FM_COMPOSER_OMP_STATUS_RE_DEFAULT) used the bracket range [⠁-⣿]; BSD grep on macOS accepts it but GNU grep on Linux CI aborts with "Invalid collation character", failing every omp busy/furniture read (3 assertions across fm-omp-harness, fm-tmux-submit-busy, fm-composer-lib). Replaced the range with one shared explicit alternation FM_OMP_SPINNER_FRAMES_RE of omp 18.1.11's unicode-preset spinner frames (status set ⣾⣽⣻⢿⡿⣟⣯⣷ + activity set ⠋⠙⠹⠸⠼⠴⠦⠧⠇⠏, read from the installed binary), the same pattern the Kimi busy regex already uses in CI. For Greptile's finding (the harness-agnostic furniture rule's first alternative matched any 1–4-byte token + ' · ', so wrapped typed input like 'fix · tests' with the cursor on it regressed from pending to unknown; reproduced locally vs base), pinned that alternative to omp's identity cell (π||pi, the icon.omp of each preset in the 18.1.11 binary). Tests: fm-composer-lib.test.sh asserts 'fix · tests' is not furniture, a status-set spinner row is furniture, and the wrapped composer screen reads pending under both locales (CAPS_TMUX cursor 3); fm-omp-harness.test.sh asserts a status-set frame reads busy. New negative cases fail against the pre-fix lib and pass after. Verified: fm-omp-harness, fm-tmux-submit-busy pass via bin/fm-test-run.sh; fm-composer-lib passes all cases except one pre-existing, unrelated local failure (Herdr half-block test uses printf '▀', unsupported by macOS bash 3.2; fails identically on a pristine HEAD export, passes on CI bash 5); shellcheck and bin/fm-lint.sh clean. Caveat: GNU grep is unavailable locally, so the Linux compile was not run directly; the fix uses only constructs already proven on CI's GNU grep (multibyte literal alternations, incl. under LC_ALL=C). Files changed: bin/fm-composer-lib.sh, tests/fm-composer-lib.test.sh, tests/fm-omp-harness.test.sh. No docs needed changes (they describe the rule generically) * no-mistakes(ci): Greptile Review: fixed. The omp status-row furniture regex FM_COMPOSER_OMP_STATUS_RE_DEFAULT in bin/fm-composer-lib.sh still accepted a literal `pi ·` opening, so wrapped composer input beginning with `pi ·` was truncated and misclassified. Read the installed omp 18.1.11 binary: the ascii preset's `icon.omp` is `pi` but its `sep.dot` separator is ` - ` (unicode/nerd use ` · `), so a real ascii status row never contains `pi ·` and that alternative could only ever match typed text. Removal-first fix: dropped `pi` from the identity alternation (now `(π|)`) and updated the comment to record why the ascii preset is excluded. Tests (tests/fm-composer-lib.test.sh): added a negative furniture case for 'pi · e · phi as the three constants' and a wrapped-screen assertion (CAPS_TMUX, cursor 3) that a continuation row opening `pi ·` reads pending in both locales; the new case fails against the unfixed lib and passes after. Verified: composer test with the half-block case skipped passes all 33 cases including the omp matrix; bin/fm-test-run.sh tests/fm-omp-harness.test.sh passes; shellcheck -x clean on both files; bin/fm-lint.sh clean. The full composer test via the runner fails locally only on the pre-existing half-block case (bash 3.2 printf cannot emit ▀; passes on CI bash 5), identical to before this change. Docs unchanged (they describe the rule generically and never mention the ascii identity cell). PR must be raised via no-mistakes: not caused by code. attestation.head_sha is cdddc60 while the PR head is cd51cf4 because the pipeline's ci-phase push moved the head; the outer executor's re-push will re-bind the attestation.

…unchenguid#3870) * fix(bin): recognise squash-merged rebased work as landed at teardown A pipeline rebase can leave the local worktree on pre-rebase commits while GitHub squash-merges the rebased head. The landed-work test then compared those stale commits against a squashed main and refused cleanup of work that had already landed. When the forge reports the recorded PR merged and its merge commit is on the default branch, treat a local branch that only repeats paths from the pipeline push as stale rather than unlanded. If the forge is unreachable, the same coverage check runs against a PR head whose content is already on default. Extra local paths still refuse. * fix(bin): drop unprovable squash-rebase landed-work coverage Path-set coverage treated a diverged local branch as landed whenever it touched the same files as the squash merge. That accepts the reviewer's failing sequence: same path, different content, work discarded. git cherry and merge-tree containment were already too strict on the real rebase-fold case. No remaining check is both safe and permissive enough to recognise a stale pre-rebase copy without also accepting unlanded edits, so that case still refuses. Keep the proofs that hold: a merged PR head that contains local work, or a clean content-in-default tree match. Tests now refuse same-path different content and extra unlanded commits, and still allow a local branch that followed the pipeline rebase. * no-mistakes(review): drop recorded-pr-head fallback and reverted-design leftovers * no-mistakes(review): silence squash-merge stdout corrupting test PR head * no-mistakes(review): make unlanded follow-up commit sole cause of refusal * no-mistakes(document): correct stale squash-rebase fixture comments in teardown tests * no-mistakes(ci): Split the three reported checks: - CI (run 34061098467) and Require no-mistakes (run 34061098460) both concluded `action_required` — approval-gated workflow runs that never executed a step. Not caused by this PR's code; no change can clear them. - Greptile Review was a genuine defect in the new tests: the three new refusal cases (tests/fm-teardown.test.sh) asserted only exit status 1 and a REFUSED line, so a teardown regression that destroyed the worktree, branch, and task record before reporting refusal would still pass. Fix (tests only): added one `assert_refusal_retained_task_state` helper and called it from `test_squash_merged_same_file_different_content_refuses`, `test_squash_merged_rebased_local_with_unlanded_commit_refuses`, and `test_squash_merged_stale_local_refuses_when_forge_unreachable`, each capturing the worktree HEAD before `run_teardown`. It pins that the refusal left the isolated copy on disk, the task branch still checked out at the same unlanded commit, and state/task-x1.meta intact. Verification: the four squash tests pass; a sensitivity probe ran the ALLOW fixture (teardown completes) and pointed the same helper at the outcome — it fires, because a completed teardown detaches/deletes the branch and removes the task record, proving the assertions discriminate. Full tests/fm-teardown.test.sh: 83 passing. bin/fm-lint.sh clean with pinned ShellCheck 0.11.0 + actionlint 1.7.12 (plus an explicit --external-sources pass on the changed file). bin/fm-test-run.sh --check-coverage ok. Caveat: test_herdr_flat_teardown_preflight_refuses_before_changes (mode missing-adapter) fails on this machine. Verified it fails identically on base commit f91a950 via `git archive`, so it is a pre-existing local environment difference untouched by this diff; skipped to run the rest of the suite, not modified --------- Co-authored-by: Morten Gad <mogad@itm8.com>
…nguid#3860) * fix(bin): keep supervision armed for registered custom checks A custom check bound by bin/fm-check-register.sh only ever runs inside the watcher's check sweep, but fm_supervision_status counted in-flight tasks, the relay poll shim, and process-event sources as supervision need, and not registered checks. Tearing down the last task therefore stopped every home-level check silently until the next spawn. Count a state/<id>.check.sh that carries its state/<id>.check-trust binding as supervision need. The relay shim keeps its own trust path and task PR polls carry no such binding and are torn down with their task, so neither arms a home by accident. Presence of the binding is the whole test: the sweep validates the bytes at execution time and wakes firstmate when it rejects one, which is the outcome an idle home needs.

…nguid#3883) * fix(bin): resolve the shared Treehouse project lock inside remote secondmate homes Every spawn and teardown inside a remote-seeded secondmate home refused, because the project lock's anchor could not be resolved there. fm_firstmate_root_home walks a home's parent bindings upward to find the anchor the lock lives in, and treated a remote parent binding as an error. A remote-seeded home's parent is on another machine, so that walk can never succeed from there - and neither can the home's own local descendants, whose chain terminates at the same record. Both fail closed on every Treehouse-backed spawn and every pool-slot teardown. A remote parent now terminates the walk at the home holding it, which is the correct anchor: a lock taken on this filesystem is neither held nor observable across that boundary, and that home is already the top of the local tree teardown's collect_local_firstmate_states enumerates, since that walk skips remote registry entries for the same reason. Mutual exclusion is unchanged - every home reachable through local parent links still derives one identical lock file per project, and an unreadable binding, an unsupported route, an unreachable local parent, a cycle, and an over-deep chain all still refuse. Origin-less local-only projects keep resolving through their worktree top. Regression coverage pins the anchor for the main-home layout, a local secondmate, a remote-seeded home, and its local child; drives teardown end-to-end in a remote-seeded home; keeps the cross-home slot-ownership refusal across that boundary; and proves two homes still serialize on the one shared lock file. * no-mistakes(document): Clarify machine-local Treehouse lock ownership
…nchenguid#3872) * fix(bearings): repair the board's listening, card hygiene, and reconcile path Three defects made the fleet board go quiet and then lie about what still needs the captain. Never arm a poll on a session that is not live. `lavish-axi <file>` exits 0 even when it refuses to reopen a session the captain ended from the browser, reporting `status: user-ended` with the same session id, so the build's exit-status check accepted a dead session, printed `already-armed`, and left the board reading "not listening". The build now proves the session is live from a fresh authoritative listing immediately before arming - not from the establish call's status alone, which is already stale by then - reopens once when it finds the session ended, and refuses rather than arming when it stays ended. A reopen also replaces the pre-reopen source generation before reporting success, so a runner on its way out cannot be mistaken for a listener, and a board whose source is registered but unowned gets a replacement started before the build returns. Let a dead generation's ownership actually move. Reclaiming a claim ran its capture-reservation cleanup first, and that cleanup re-verifies the recorded state-root identity, so a claim naming a pid and a process group that were both provably gone could not be cleared: reconcile reported a start while nothing attached, and retire refused with "cannot release source ownership". Reservation records are keyed by claim token and every replacement claims a fresh one, so they are hygiene, not an ownership invariant. Reclamation now additionally requires the owning process group to be absent independently, which keeps a reused pid whose poll child still runs from ever reading as a gone generation. A live owner and a crashed leader whose owned group survives are still never reclaimed. Stop carding decisions whose subject already landed. The build drops a decision card whose work item or PR appears in the payload's own landed rows, and one whose task is no longer an open captain call, naming each drop on stderr. A task whose state cannot be established is kept, because a call wrongly hidden is worse than a card wrongly shown. Add the reconcile choice, and make it structurally incapable of closing a call. Every decision card carries a standard `reconcile` option, injected by the build rather than left to the composer. The board now emits the picked option and any freeform note as separate structured fields instead of fusing them, so a reconcile selection is not expressible as an answer value at all - the defect that let `reconcile - <note>` reach the intake as an ordinary answer. The adapter routes selections from that structured field, creation of a reconcile request is bound to a verified board source rather than the shared keyed-answer intake, and the intake still refuses the reserved value on every channel. Each authorization is bound to the captain-hold generation that produced the card, so an obsolete card cannot close a later call, and both terminal outcomes require a pending request: `reconcile close` records the evidence under its own `reconciled` mode so it never reads as the captain's words, and `reconcile note` leaves the call open. Anything unprovable - an unversioned row, a missing generation, an unreadable state - refuses rather than acting. Regression coverage fails without each fix, and pins every leak path: a bare reconcile, a standalone close or note with no pending request, an any-channel reconcile, an annotated selection from a freeform card, and a generation-skewed authorization. An opt-in guard re-proves the lavish-axi shapes and the reopen against the installed tool. * fix(bin): quote the done comparison in the reconcile intake shellcheck SC1010 reads the bare word as the loop keyword.

…enguid#3889) * feat(tests): run live harness guards by default where the harness is installed The 24 live-harness guards each opened with their own env check, so on the machine that has every harness - the one the product and its validation actually run on - all of them skipped and passed. Fourteen had never been run by the pipeline at all. tests/lib.sh gains fm_live_gate as the single owner of that decision: a guard that spends no model tokens runs wherever its tools are installed, a guard that submits prompts stays opt-in, an absent tool is a named capability skip, and a guard's own variable or FM_LIVE forces it on (turning an absent tool into a failure) or off. Every live guard now opens with it, which also carries the test-suite gate-refusal bypass into the guards that never sourced the shared helpers and were therefore refused whenever a gate agent ran them. bin/fm-test-run.sh records what a skip means: the family's expected class is live-capability rather than a bare env opt-in, and each gate skip's reason is logged and written to the timing artifact, so a lane can say which tool this host could not exercise. Only the token-free guards flip to default-on: composer-matrix, the harness liveness drift guard, and the Herdr version floor. cursor-primary submits three prompts, so it stays opt-in. Running the drift guard unasked immediately found a real defect it existed to catch: it resolved the harness through a generic `command -v cursor`, which on a machine that also has the Cursor editor finds the editor launcher rather than cursor-agent. That binary exits at once, leaving a bare shell in the pane and a liveness-drift failure no classifier change could fix. It now asks fm_cursor_resolve_binary first, the same verified owner fm-spawn uses. CI installs the public Pi package in the portable serial lane and fails on its skip token, so the Pi extension tests stop passing silently against a package that is not there. No secret is added. Verified on macOS 26.5.2 arm64: the drift guard runs with no variable set and classifies 8 installed harnesses alive; the Herdr version-floor guard runs by default and checks 4 real releases; every live guard refuses together under FM_LIVE=0. * fix(tests): keep the composer-matrix guard opt-in Running it unasked is red on a healthy machine for reasons no code change here removes: a harness that has not trusted this checkout sits on its own trust dialog, which the guard treats as an unreadable composer and correctly fails. The opencode 1.18.29 and grok 1.0.13 composer drift it also surfaced reproduces identically on main and is filed as separate work. So this token-free guard stays opt-in with the reason stated in its header, and the coding guidelines record the narrow exception: a guard whose verdict depends on host state that installing its tools does not establish may stay opt-in, because one that is permanently red is one the fleet learns to ignore. The other two token-free guards keep running by default. * no-mistakes(review): Wire bearings guard and remove composer exception policy * no-mistakes(review): Run Pi responsiveness guard by default * no-mistakes(review): Gate AFK Pi Herdr through authoritative family sweep * no-mistakes(review): Sanitize live gate test environments * no-mistakes(document): Document default-on live guard behavior * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed CI by installing the Pi package in portable-parallel-1, where fm-pi-primary-types.test.sh runs, and enforcing its package-missing gate skip there.

… is set (kunchenguid#3891) * fix(bin): refuse the behavior suite in the repository primary checkout A task worker's isolated worktree placement is verified exactly once, when its task starts, and nothing re-checks it afterwards. A worker that later changes directory into the repository's primary checkout runs its Git commands, and this branch-switching suite, against the one checkout every linked worktree resolves against and every landing merges into. A run that dies mid-suite can leave that checkout on a stray branch. bin/fm-test-run.sh now refuses that case. When FM_TASK_ID marks a task worker and the runner resolves to the primary checkout, every executing mode exits non-zero before selecting a suite, with one line naming the primary path and pointing at the assigned task worktree. The predicate is the one bin/fm-spawn.sh already uses for launch placement: the working tree's own git dir is the repository's common git dir, which separates the primary from every linked worktree even when their top levels differ. A run with no FM_TASK_ID set is unchanged, and so are the inspection modes, which execute nothing. When git resolves neither directory - a non-repository fixture, a detached copy - nothing proves this is the primary, so the run proceeds. bin/fm-spawn.sh sets the marker: ship and scout launches export FM_TASK_ID into the pane shell on the same pre-launch channel as GOTMPDIR, and the name joins the sanitized launch environment allowlist so an isolated launch keeps it. * no-mistakes(review): clear inherited task marker in test lib; name resolved ROOT * no-mistakes(document): docs: record FM_TASK_ID marker and runner placement refusal --------- Co-authored-by: Talon Stark <talonstark@gmail.com>
) * fix(bin): bound a stale alarm with the backlog hold, not only the status line A legitimate wait has two records and the stale alarm reads only one. `status_is_paused_or_captain_held` takes a status line, so it sees a wait the worker declared. It cannot see the wait firstmate records when it hands work to the captain: `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh hold` writes that into the backlog and leaves the status log alone, so a delivered task keeps `done: PR ...` as its last line for the whole time the captain is deciding. Both stale branches were blind to it, and each churned a new pane hash back into its own alarm: a `done:` line is captain-relevant and reaches the terminal-stale branch, while a held task whose last line is `working:` reaches `surface_nonterminal_stale` and fails its declared-wait test. Consult that second record where the watcher is about to alarm, through `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh open`, which already owns the predicate's semantics, and bound the alarm on the shared `.paused-resurfaced-<key>` marker and `PAUSE_RESURFACE_SECS` window the declared-wait absorb already uses. The first sight still alarms, the window's end alarms once more, and a held crew that goes genuinely silent still escalates through the wedge timer. Only an established open captain call bounds anything: an unreadable backlog, an absent or incompatible tasks-axi, a row this home does not carry, and every task with no hold keep alarming exactly as before. The backlog hold is deliberately not recorded as a declared pause, because the loop-top reconciliation and `pause_state_class` both read the status line and would clear a flag that line does not support. Extends the fix in kunchenguid#3443, which closed the forms of this loop that the status line itself can express. * fix(bin): identify the captain call a stale alarm is bounded by Three gaps in the bound added by the previous commit, all in how the throttle is scoped and where the backlog is consulted. The scope carried only the status-log signature. A task can be held, answered with `--release`, and re-held as a genuinely different captain call without any status append, so the second call inherited the first one's marker and its first sight was absorbed - the one thing this bound must never do. The task id is not the call: `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh open` gains `--identity`, which reports the call's own lifecycle - its hold-set stamp and the number of recorded answers - on an exit 0 and only then, leaving the silent predicate every existing caller reads unchanged. The throttle scope now carries that identity. The terminal path recorded the throttle before publishing the durable wake. A failed append exits the watcher with nothing queued, and the next sighting then read that fresh marker and absorbed the retry, turning a delayed alarm into a lost one. Recording moves behind the append, as the non-terminal path already had it, and the comment claiming the marker could not outlive its wake is gone because it was false. The backlog was consulted only on a new terminal pane hash. A captain call can open after a hash was absorbed as provably working, changing neither the pane nor the status log, so nothing re-read the backlog and the wedge timer kept firing possible-wedge alarms through a legitimate wait. That timer now consults the call at its own alarm boundary and takes the same bounded cadence - and only at that boundary, so an ordinary repeat poll under the bound stays the local-only read it was. Regression coverage for each, all driving churn through one watcher process rather than relaunching per pane change: relaunch cost dominated the earlier shape, and an absorbing watcher stays in its poll loop across churn in production anyway. An unheld task still alarms on every new hash, and an elapsed wedge timer with no open captain call still escalates as a possible wedge. * fix(review): Compose stale throttles with captain-call lifecycle identity * fix(review): Preserve bounded same-hash captain-call resurfacing * revert(bin): narrow the captain-hold stale bound to its observed defect Lifts the lifecycle-identity and cadence-ownership work back out, leaving the change at the shape that matches the defect actually observed: the stale alarm did not consult the backlog captain hold, on either stale branch. Reviewing the wider version surfaced a series of adjacent gaps in the watcher's alarm state machine - a call opening after the first alarm, marker invalidation at the hold lifecycle boundary, and which deadline a terminal timer represents. They are real, but fixing them turns a small extension into a state-machine change to the alarm path, which is a different review on a subsystem that is being actively reworked. They are named as known limitations rather than carried here, and none of them is load-bearing for what remains: the bound does strictly less than the reverted version, leaves the wedge path escalating on STALE_ESCALATE_SECS exactly as before, and introduces no silence that the existing terminal-alarm path did not already have. Kept from the reverted work is the record-after-append ordering, because that is a defect in the code being shipped rather than an adjacent one: recording the cadence marker before publishing the durable wake let a failed append lose an alarm outright instead of delaying it. History is preserved: the earlier commits stay on the branch and this removal sits on top of them. * fix(review): Document secondmate captain-hold scope boundary * fix(document): Document captain-hold stale alarm scope * fix(bin): bind the stale throttle to the captain call, not the status log The throttle this change introduces was scoped to the task's status-log signature. Answering a call with `--release` and holding the task again creates a genuinely different captain call without necessarily appending to that log, so the second call inherited the first one's marker and its first sight was absorbed. That is the one alarm this bound must never swallow. A delivery announced twice is noise; a decision waiting on the captain that is never surfaced is invisible, because nobody asks for what they do not know to ask for. Measured rather than assumed, on the same fixture - a delivered task held for the captain, released, and re-held with no status append, driven through bin/fm-watch.sh: base c499f84 call-1 first=ALARM call-1 churn=ALARM new call first sight=ALARM before this fix call-1 first=ALARM call-1 churn=absorbed new call first sight=absorbed after call-1 first=ALARM call-1 churn=absorbed new call first sight=ALARM Base never suppresses the new call, so the suppression came from this change and closing it completes the fix rather than widening it. `bin/fm-captain-hold.sh open` gains `--identity`, printing the call's lifecycle - its hold-set stamp and count of recorded answers - on an exit 0 and only then, so the silent predicate bin/fm-teardown.sh reads is untouched. The throttle scope carries that identity beside the status signature. The sibling case was measured too and is NOT included: on the status-declared path, where the last line is `captain-held:`, base already absorbs a re-held call's first sight. That behaviour predates this change and stays documented as a known limitation rather than repaired here. * fix(document): Document captain-call throttle lifecycle scope * fix(ci): isolate the Herdr restart fixtures from a claimed worktree The Herdr behaviour test intermittently reused a local worktree still claimed by an earlier fixture after a restart. The restart scenarios now use an isolated Treehouse project. The full Herdr test passes on Herdr 0.8.2; bash -n and git diff --check pass as well.
…ranch (kunchenguid#3871) * Let the supervision branch resolve extension-registered providers The isolated branch ModelRuntime cannot see providers an extension registered into main's runtime at run time, so a pin on pi-devin-auth's devin/swe-1-7 (or an unpinned branch following a main session on devin) failed with "unavailable to the isolated branch runtime". Capture main's ModelRegistry alongside mainModel and copy each extension-registered provider config into the branch runtime at model-resolution time. The config carries the provider's own streamSimple and oauth wiring by reference, so the custom gRPC transport reaches the branch unchanged instead of being reimplemented. The /supervision-model picker uses the same copy so those models are offered. Update configuration.md and pi-supervision-branch.md, which previously stated extension-registered providers were not offered. * no-mistakes(document): docs: own devin provider carve-out in branch architecture doc * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed the Greptile P1 finding: the /supervision-model picker copied extension-registered providers into the branch ModelRuntime but checked hasConfiguredAuth without refreshing them, so providers with provisional post-registration auth were omitted from the picker while the pin-resolution path (which did refresh) accepted them. Root-cause fix in .pi/extensions/fm-branch-supervision.ts: moved the `refresh({ providers, allowNetwork: false })` call into `copyExtensionProviders` (now async, refreshing every provider it copied) and removed the duplicate per-provider refresh from `resolveBranchModel`. Both the picker and the resolution path now share one copy-and-refresh step, so hasConfiguredAuth is real in both. Regression coverage in tests/fm-pi-branch-extension.test.sh: the stubbed ModelRuntime now mirrors the real runtime by leaving a registered provider's auth pending until `refresh()` runs for it. With that stub, the existing extension-registered-provider case fails against the pre-fix extension (picker offers only anthropic/main-model) and passes with the fix. Verification: tests/fm-pi-branch-extension.test.sh passes (42 ok, no failures); tests/fm-branch-supervision.test.sh passes; tests/fm-pi-primary-types.test.sh skips locally because tsc is not installed (the refresh signature reused is the one the existing code already called).

ROOT CAUSE (Greptile P1, real code defect in this PR): `secondmate_wake_stall_tick` in bin/fm-watch.sh reset the no-progress timer only when the oldest actionable queue sequence INCREASED (`[ "$seq" -gt "$observed_seq" ]`). When a secondmate is retired and reprovisioned under the same task ID, its fresh home's queue sequence restarts BELOW the recorded position, so the comparison is false, no reset happens, and the new queue inherits the retired generation's already-expired idle interval — emitting a false `secondmate wake-loop stalled` on its very first observation. That is precisely the false-alarm class the user intent requires this PR to remove. FIX (smallest, removal-first): bin/fm-watch.sh:749 now resets when the drain position MOVES AT ALL (`-ne` instead of `-gt`). Draining moves it up, reprovisioning moves it down; neither is a continued no-progress episode. The asymmetric `-gt` branch is removed rather than special-cased or hardened. Updated the function header comment plus the two doc sentences in docs/architecture.md and docs/configuration.md that stated the old advance-only semantics. REGRESSION TEST: added `test_secondmate_reprovisioned_queue_starts_a_fresh_interval` to tests/fm-wake-queue.test.sh (registered in the invocation list). It drives the real watcher through retired generation (seq 9) -> reprovision (seq 3, later clock) -> freeze, asserting observable wake-queue output, no source-text inspection. VERIFICATION: - Fails before / passes after: with the fix reverted the suite aborts on `not ok - a reprovisioned queue generation inherited the retired generation's idle interval and alerted`; with the fix it passes, and its third leg confirms the restarted generation still escalates on a genuine freeze (row=3 idle=2s), so the fix does not merely mute the alarm. - `bash tests/fm-wake-queue.test.sh`: exit 0, 38/38 pass, all five secondmate cases green. - `bin/fm-lint.sh`: clean (ShellCheck 0.11.0, actionlint 1.7.12). CHECKS NOT CAUSED BY THE CODE: the CI and "Require no-mistakes" runs (34152740610, 34152740604) both ended with conclusion `action_required` — workflow approval pending, not a test/build failure. Separately, `bin/fm-test-run.sh --check-coverage` exits 1 in this environment, but I confirmed by stashing my changes that it fails identically on the unmodified base tree (locale-related `comm: input is not in sorted order`); it is pre-existing and this change adds no new test file for the partition to account for. Changes are left uncommitted in the worktree * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed the one real code defect behind the failing checks. ROOT CAUSE (Greptile P1, second round, on the head commit e1304e6): `secondmate_wake_stall_tick` in bin/fm-watch.sh identified the queue's drain position by the sequence number ALONE. The previous round changed the comparison from `-gt` to `-ne`, which handles a reprovisioned queue that restarts BELOW the recorded position, but not one that restarts ON it. A mate retired and reprovisioned under the same task id gets a fresh home whose wake-queue sequence counter restarts at 1 — and the retained parent progress marker very plausibly holds a low sequence too (a queue frozen on its first row records seq 1). Equal sequence ⇒ no reset ⇒ the brand-new queue inherits the retired generation's long-expired idle interval and emits a false `secondmate wake-loop stalled` on its very first observation. That is exactly the false-alarm class this PR exists to remove. FIX (smallest, removal-first): the file already defines the identity of a queue row once, as `row_key="$epoch-$seq"` (used for stall receipts, the stall marker, and the notify key). The progress marker's separate, weaker seq-only identity is removed: `row_key` is now computed once right after the row is parsed, stored in the progress marker, and compared with `!=`. Across generations the epoch differs (the new generation's rows are appended later), so no sequence collision can carry a stale interval; within a generation the key is stable exactly while the position does not move. bin/fm-wake-lib.sh's `fm_wake_secondmate_progress_marker_write` now takes `<oldest-row-key>` and validates it the same way the two neighbouring row-key writers do. Updated the function header comment and the two doc sentences (docs/architecture.md, docs/configuration.md) that described the old sequence-only semantics. REGRESSION TEST: `test_secondmate_reprovisioned_queue_starts_a_fresh_interval` in tests/fm-wake-queue.test.sh now drives the reported case — the reprovisioned generation restarts on the SAME sequence 9 (epoch 200) that the retired generation recorded (epoch 100), at a later clock — and asserts observable watcher output only. Its third leg still confirms the restarted generation escalates on a genuine freeze (row=9 idle=2s), so the fix does not merely mute the alarm. Three seeded progress markers in the symlink, crash-window and prefix-receipt tests were updated to the epoch-sequence form. VERIFICATION: - Fails before / passes after: with bin/fm-watch.sh and bin/fm-wake-lib.sh reverted to HEAD and the new test in place, the suite aborts on `not ok - a reprovisioned queue generation inherited the retired generation's idle interval and alerted` (exit 1); with the fix, `bash tests/fm-wake-queue.test.sh` exits 0 with 38/38 pass, all six secondmate cases green. - `bin/fm-lint.sh`: clean (ShellCheck 0.11.0, actionlint 1.7.12). - I also started `bin/fm-test-run.sh tests/fm-watch-checkpoint.test.sh tests/fm-watch-triage.test.sh tests/fm-watch-recovery-loop.test.sh` as a blast-radius check; it was still running when this phase had to return, so its result is not included. No other suite references the stall detector or the progress marker (grep over tests/ for `wake-loop stall|SECONDMATE_WAKE_STALL|secondmate-wake-progress` matches only fm-wake-queue.test.sh), and the changed lib function has exactly one caller. CHECKS NOT CAUSED BY THE CODE: the CI and "Require no-mistakes" runs on the head commit (34154091191, 34154091236, 34154091945) all ended with conclusion `action_required` — pending workflow approval, not a test/build failure. `bin/fm-test-run.sh --check-coverage` still exits 1 in this environment for the pre-existing locale reason recorded in the previous phase (`comm: input is not in sorted order` on the unmodified base tree); this change adds no new test file.

…idence (kunchenguid#3952) * fix(tests): make the Calm export-DOM render step retry and report The Calm suite's rendered-export-DOM assertion started breaking CI with a bare "could not render calm-mode HTML export DOM", which read like a Pi 0.85 rendering change. It is not one. Calm's rendered rows are identical across Pi 0.84.4, 0.85.0, and 0.85.1, and the CI break appeared in exactly one of the thirteen most recent runs, all on the same Pi 0.85.1, with the main runs immediately before and after it passing. What actually failed is headless Chrome's start-up. The render step made a single unattended attempt and discarded both Chrome's stderr and its exit status, so the log held nothing to tell a Chrome crash apart from a real change in Pi's export shape. Rendering is a vendor-tool step; the DOM assertions that follow it are what protect the Calm conversation boundary. So the step now retries a bounded number of Chrome start-ups on a fresh profile, drops Chrome's background network and /dev/shm dependencies without changing what a local file renders to, and, when every attempt fails, reports the Chrome binary, its version, the installed Pi version, each attempt's exit status, and Chrome's own stderr. test_export_dom_render_guard pins that with real processes and no browser: one clean render, one that only succeeds after a start-up failure, and one that never renders and must report enough to diagnose itself. The verification record adds the 0.85.1 evidence this contract is now pinned to, the cross-version comparison run through isolated installs, and the Pi 0.85.0 packaging gap - its dist/experimental/server.js statically imports @earendil-works/pi-server, which 0.85.0 does not declare - that made the contract look version-sensitive in the first place.

…unchenguid#3950) * fix(bin): make every counted wake queue row presentable or retired A wake row could be counted as queued while no drain would ever present it, leaving the operator told to "drain them before anything else" by a command that printed nothing and offered no acknowledgement. Two independent paths produced that state. A row reserved by a live supervision-branch grant is excluded from a main drain by design, but fm-guard.sh counted the whole queue, so main was warned about rows only the branch could present, on every guarded command for as long as the grant was held. A row that lost its five appended fields or its numeric sequence can never be claimed, presented, or named by an --ack-through cutoff, yet it still counted as queued, wedging the queue permanently. The guard now counts only the rows the calling actor can itself present or retire, and a main drain retires unusable rows under the queue lock, reporting them in bounded escaped form before removal so the evidence survives for the separate row-generating defects. A retirement failure is reported loudly and never suppresses unrelated consumable work. A main drain whose remaining rows are all branch-held says so in one bounded line instead of exiting silently. Grant row-list and owner-record reads move into fm-wake-lib.sh so the drain, the grant publisher, and the guard share one implementation. Ownership is unchanged: a branch drain still touches nothing outside its grant and never retires a row, and main still cannot present or acknowledge an active grant. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GghGvsa4JDB1E5FuznX2i1 * no-mistakes(test): keep SIGTERM-safe arithmetic in wake queue retirement pass * no-mistakes(review): add guard advisory for branch-held wake rows * no-mistakes(document): document per-actor wake counting and unusable-row retirement * no-mistakes(ci): Addressed the Greptile P1 on bin/fm-wake-lib.sh:1840 ("Unreadable queue suppresses alarms"). Root cause: fm_wake_actor_pending_count inferred "the queue could not be counted" only from awk's printed output (`case "$count" in ''|*[!0-9]*) count=1`). That relies on awk aborting before its END rule when the input cannot be opened. An awk that reaches END after a failed open prints `0`, which the fallback accepts as a genuine count; both actor counts then read zero and bin/fm-guard.sh emits neither the queued-wake warning nor the branch-held advisory for a queue nobody proved empty. Fix (bin/fm-wake-lib.sh:1828,1835): both counting awk invocations now set `count=''` on a non-zero awk exit status, so the existing "cannot be counted => report a pending row" fallback is driven by awk's exit status instead of an implementation-defined detail of what it printed. No new code path or behavior; the pre-existing fallback just becomes unconditional. Comment updated to state why. Regression test (tests/fm-wake-queue.test.sh: test_uncountable_queue_still_raises_the_pending_alarm, registered in the run list): runs the real bin/fm-guard.sh against a non-empty, unreadable queue with a PATH-injected awk emulating an END-running implementation (prints 0, exits 2; execs the real awk otherwise) and asserts "queued wakes pending" is still emitted; disconfirming half asserts the same fake awk over a readable, provably empty queue stays silent. Fails on the pre-fix library ("not ok - a queue that could not be counted silenced the queued-wake alarm"), passes after. Verified locally: bin/fm-test-run.sh tests/fm-wake-queue.test.sh -> 0 failed; tests/fm-guard-stale-banner.test.sh + tests/fm-watcher-lock.test.sh -> 0 failed; bin/fm-lint.sh (ShellCheck 0.11.0 + actionlint 1.7.12) clean. Caveat reported honestly: on the awks available/known here (mawk locally, plus gawk and BWK/macOS awk, all of which treat an unopenable input as fatal and skip END) the alarm was not actually suppressed - I reproduced the unreadable-queue case and the warning fired. The change removes the code's dependence on that awk detail rather than repairing an outage observed on this platform. Both intent constraints still hold: every counted row remains presentable or retirable, and no alarm-suppressing path was added --------- Co-authored-by: Alex William <awilliam@v2202608403614505120.powersrv.de> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

A spawned worker's settings sources are not guaranteed to load that scope, so a launched worker could write attribution trailers into its commits and PR bodies regardless of the captain's own configuration. launch_template()'s claude case now carries the same policy ("attribution": {"commit": "", "pr": "", "sessionUrl": false}) directly in its inline --settings JSON, so every claude launch keeps attribution off independent of which settings scopes end up loaded.

…nchenguid#3946) * fix(bin): derive the away-mode beacon grace from the poll cadence fm-turnend-guard.sh's away-mode branch required the watcher beacon to be fresh within the flat FM_GUARD_GRACE default (300s), but the daemon starts a fresh one-shot watcher only after it finishes handling the previous wake, and that handling can legitimately outrun a fixed 300s window under load (a slow registered check, a busy supervisor pane) with the daemon perfectly healthy throughout. That misread a live, correctly-cycling daemon as down and blocked the turn. Add fm_poll_derived_grace, the single owner of the max(300, FM_POLL + 60) formula, and have the away-mode branch, fm-claude-stop-autoarm.sh, and fm-watch.sh's own runtime beacon-staleness check all derive their default grace from it instead of the flat default. A dead daemon pid or a beacon older than that grace still blocks, so a genuinely lapsed away mode still alarms; every other check is unchanged. fm-claude-stop-autoarm.sh computed the derived grace into GRACE but its two fm-watch-arm.sh invocations called the wrapper bare, so the wrapper fell back to its own flat 300s default and could reject a healthy long-poll watcher. Both invocations now pass FM_GUARD_GRACE="$GRACE" through explicitly, and a new test proves a long FM_POLL with FM_GUARD_GRACE unset reaches fm-watch-arm.sh with the derived value. Also drops fm_last_activity_age, added alongside the derivation but never called anywhere in the tree; fm-inactive-reconcile.sh already owns that computation. * no-mistakes(review): Remove dead WATCHER_STALE_GRACE assignment in fm-watch.sh * no-mistakes(document): Update FM_WATCHER_STALE_GRACE default note for poll-derived grace --------- Co-authored-by: NewAiCoder <170579485+NewAiCoder@users.noreply.github.com>
…henguid#3904) * fix(procevent): bind a source runner to the session that owns it A process-event source runner is detached into its own process group so a persistent source survives the turn that armed it. Nothing bounded that detachment, so a runner could reparent to init and keep its blocking child - and every process that child spawned - running with nothing left to reap it. One such runner outlived its home for about a day; the cost was not the runner but the exec churn of the poll stubs under it, which stalled every fresh process launch on the host. Each runner now starts a small guard beside it, in a separate process group, that re-reads its home's process-event lease and stops the runner's whole process group once that lease can no longer be proved fresh. Every ordinary entry point an owning session runs refreshes the lease, and the watcher's reconcile cycle keeps it fresh in a live home; nothing a runner spawns can refresh it, so a source cannot certify its own owner. Scope is the owning state root and one runner generation, never a script or process name, so a live source in another home is untouched and a live home simply starts a replacement runner on its next cycle. The test scaffolding that starts real runners could not reap them either: the bearings-board and board-render suites tracked their homes in a shell array appended to inside a command substitution, so the array was always empty and every listener they started survived the run. Home registration moves to a `$$`-keyed registry in tests/lib.sh, which sweeps it from every cleanup path, now including HUP and QUIT, and the blocking fixture stubs stop themselves at a bound so an escaped one cannot keep spawning processes indefinitely. Adds a regression test that reproduces the orphan shape - a reparented listener with a live descendant tree under it - and proves the whole group and its process churn stop once its session is gone, that an identical listener in a home whose session is still there is untouched, and that retirement still reaches a reparented listener and everything under it. * no-mistakes(review): Bound source launches and fail closed on guard startup * no-mistakes(document): Document runner lease and storm containment * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed the Greptile watchdog finding: failed runner cleanup now retries on each watchdog tick instead of abandoning the orphaned process group. The shared state-root lease behavior remains unchanged because it is an explicitly accepted ownership policy. Verified with bash syntax checks, git diff checks, and the complete fm-procevent test suite * test(procevent): pin that an unprovable stop is retried, not abandoned The owner guard used to call stop_runner_pid and exit unconditionally, so a stop it could not prove - a descendant still finishing uninterruptible work outlives even the group signal, and an unreadable process identity proves nothing - left a still-running expired runner with nothing watching it. That is the best-effort reaping this mechanism exists to remove, and the fix that made the guard retry landed without a test holding it in place. The unprovable attempt is injected through the signal the real path actually reads: `ps` answers exactly one process-group query for the runner with a group it does not lead, which is how a stop that cannot be proved is reported, and every other call is the real command. The test also asserts that the injected attempt happened, so it cannot pass vacuously if the fixture stops arming. Fails against the exit-after-one-attempt guard, where the runner survives its expired lease, and passes once the guard retries on its check cadence. * docs(procevent): scope the no-self-refresh rule to confused-agent grade The runner-lease documentation asserted as an absolute that nothing a runner spawns can refresh the lease, so a source cannot certify its own owner. That overclaims what the inherited FM_PROCEVENT_IN_RUNNER marker actually enforces. The marker holds at confused-agent grade: a runner and its ordinary children inherit it and skip every refresh, which is exactly the accidental case this boundary exists for. A source that deliberately strips the marker from its environment can still refresh, so adversarial-grade unforgeability is explicitly out of scope and tracked as separate follow-up design work. This states the real scope in docs/configuration.md, which owns the operating contract, and corrects the two matching comments in bin/fm-procevent.sh. The process-event-sources skill keeps its cross-reference and gains one line in its never-to-be-claimed list so the overclaim is not reintroduced from the agent-facing side. The lease mechanism itself is unchanged. * no-mistakes(review): Fix process-event lease and launch pacing edge cases * no-mistakes(review): Scope launch pacing and clarify lease boundaries * no-mistakes(review): Reap leftover groups and use monotonic launch pacing * no-mistakes(review): Keep guards alive across runner PID reuse * no-mistakes(review): Use monotonic leases and simplify launch generation identity * no-mistakes(review): Prevent pacing identity reuse and bound reused-group guards * no-mistakes(review): Preserve active pacing state on failed registration * no-mistakes(review): Reap reused runner groups with registration evidence * no-mistakes(review): Avoid ambiguous group kills and encode pacing identities * no-mistakes(review): Abort kill escalation after runner identity reuse * no-mistakes(review): Gate group signals and prune stale pacing state * no-mistakes(review): Document bounded PID reuse signaling safety * no-mistakes(review): Align leaderless group ambiguity guidance * no-mistakes(review): Expire reboot stamps and preserve publication success * no-mistakes(review): Bind owner leases to physical state roots * no-mistakes(document): Clarify process-event lease and pacing contracts * fix(procevent): drop a platform-dependent post-TERM test assertion CI ran red on two lanes that the local gate could not see. Lint failed with SC2034 on two reads in cmd_owner_watchdog that destructure the state-root identity into five fields while using only the device and inode. Local changed-file mode suppresses the cross-file codes that need --external-sources, so the warning cleared the pre-push lint step and failed CI's full analysis, exactly as bin/fm-lint.sh's header describes. The unused fields now read into `_`. The behavior shard failed on this suite's own post-TERM assertion, which required the stubbed identity source to be consulted more than once. Whether that happens is platform-dependent: where the runner leader keeps waiting on its TERM-ignoring source child, the post-TERM check sees a live leader whose identity no longer matches, and where the leader dies promptly it sees a leaderless group carrying the same numeric id. fm_procevent_pid_state reaches that second verdict without consulting process identity at all, so the identity source is never read twice and the count assertion fails through no fault of the behavior. The case now asserts the invariant both forms share: retirement refuses, and the ambiguous group is not signalled. Scoping a mutation to this fixture and making the refusal signal instead confirms the case still fails, so dropping the count does not leave it passing vacuously. * no-mistakes(review): Prevent superseded runners recreating stale pacing stamps * no-mistakes(document): Document pacing and ambiguity boundaries * fix(procevent): retire under the recorded identity source and state the home-scoped lease The reused-group case started its runner with the proc-root override in place, so the runner recorded a ps-derived identity, then retired it without that override. Where /proc exists the retirement read identity from a different source than the one recorded, the guard correctly refused an identity it could not confirm, and the case failed on Linux while passing on macOS. It now retires under the same source, and clearing the stub marker first turns that cleanup into the complementary assertion: once the ambiguity is gone, retirement reaps the whole group instead of leaving it behind. The lease prose claimed a runner is bound to the session that owns it, while the mechanism binds it to the home. That gap is what makes a replacement session or an inspection command look like a defect: any activity in the same home refreshes the lease. The granularity is deliberate, because a persistent source is meant to outlive the session that armed it, and binding a runner to that session would stop the sources this mechanism exists to keep running. A runner whose source is no longer wanted in a live home is stopped by reconcile when that source is retired, independently of the lease, so the lease is the backstop for a home that is gone - the torn-down sandbox this change bounds - and the residual is recorded as a known limit. * no-mistakes(review): Rate-limit polls and skip superseded runner launches * fix(procevent): build the claim-only sweep case as a runnerless owned claim A superseded generation now observes the registration-identity mismatch, self-retires, and releases its claim, which is the behavior we want: it clears its own residue rather than leaving a claim with no runner for the home sweep to find. The claim-only sweep case was built by deleting a registration out from under a live runner, which used to leave that runner in place. It now makes the runner retire itself, so the sweep raced that exit and retired one source or two depending on which won. The case failed three runs in four, alternating between a preflight-count failure and `attempted=1`. It now builds the state it means to test: kill the runner's group so it cannot run its own cleanup, assert the owned claim survived that kill, and only then drop the registration. Coverage is unchanged - a runnerless owned claim must still be swept - and the result no longer depends on whether the runner had exited yet. Three consecutive runs pass. The superseded exit also skipped the runner-marker cleanup the normal path performs. The marker is written before the launch floor is waited on, and a home sweep counts a marker with no owned claim as a preflight failure, so exiting without clearing it would make that home refuse to sweep. `FM_LAVISH_POLL_RETRY_DELAY= ` trips SC1007 under the full analysis CI runs, though not under the changed-file mode the pre-push gate uses. * test(procevent): retire a quiet reparented listener instead of racing a storm Explicit retirement was exercised against the spawn-churning stub, which made it nondeterministic. Retirement refuses rather than signalling when it cannot confirm the runner's identity, that identity is read through `ps`, and the stub's 0.1s spawn loop starves that read often enough that a single attempt is a race - the suite failed on this case roughly one run in four, reporting `cannot confirm runner identity; source remains registered`. The refusal is correct: it is the documented preserve-for-retry contract, and a separate case already asserts it. So this is a fixture problem, not a behavior problem. The storm is still covered where the evidence for it lives. The owner-loss home keeps the churning stub and still asserts its tick log stops, which is what proves the churn ended rather than one pid going away. The retirement home never asserted ticks; it only ever read the descendant pid, so the spawn loop bought this case nothing while costing it determinism. It now uses a quiet stub that still reparents and still holds a real descendant in its process group, so the assertions are unchanged: retiring the source must reap the reparented listener's whole group and the descendant under it. Four consecutive runs pass. * no-mistakes(review): Serialize registration replacement through source child launch * chore(no-mistakes): require honest test-step scenario marking The test step recorded scenarios as passing that were only reached through a stubbed dependency or the executable suite, and its validator refused them, because `pass` asserts a scenario was verified against the real live product. That refusal is correct, so the fix is to mark honestly rather than to weaken the gate: a scenario driven live stays a pass and cites its live transcript, while one reached only through a stub or the suite is recorded as untested with the reason and a pointer to its executable coverage. Untested scenarios are reported rather than treated as failures, so real coverage stays visible without claiming verification that did not happen. The instruction also forbids dropping a scenario to avoid marking it untested, since that would hide the gap instead of stating it. * no-mistakes(review): Remove unrelated test scenario policy * no-mistakes(document): Clarify process-event home lease documentation * no-mistakes(document): Correct owner guard failure wording
…nguid#4037) * test(lib): set fixture mtimes through one portable epoch helper On macOS the visible symptom was ONE red case in the turn-end guard suite. The actual damage was TWO cases that had quietly stopped testing their subject. The red one was the harmless half - people read one red case as one broken thing, and here that intuition is wrong. `touch -d @<epoch>` is a GNU extension; BSD touch rejects it outright and leaves the file at its current mtime. So on macOS the three away-mode beacon cases never aged their beacon at all. The 400s case exists to pin that 400s is stale under the flat 300s default but fresh under the poll-derived grace (660s at FM_POLL=600). Deleting the grace it guards (FM_POLL=60, so max(300,120)=300) and re-running proves what it was worth on this platform: pre-fix input (beacon left at now): ok - passes with the feature DELETED post-fix input (beacon 400s old): not ok - expected exit 0, got 2 It was green while measuring nothing, and could not have caught a regression in the grace it names. Only the 700s case broke loudly. `touch -t [[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm[.SS]` is POSIX and both platforms accept it, so the only host-specific step left is formatting the epoch into that stamp, which date(1) spells two incompatible ways. fm_touch_epoch in tests/lib.sh owns that probe once and fails loudly rather than leaving an unset timestamp behind - the failure mode that caused this. Verified on BSD touch/date here and on GNU coreutils 9.7 in a container. Three real sites, and one consistency change - not four fixes. The stale destination lock in tests/fm-remote-backlog-handoff.test.sh was never a defect: its `uname = Darwin` branch made the `touch -d` line unreachable on macOS, and BSD touch accepts that space-separated form anyway. `touch -t` takes the date directly on both platforms, so the branch goes rather than standing as a second copy of the same platform assumption. Known limit: the third case (away mode off) is only HALF recovered here. It now receives the input its name claims, but it is still insensitive after this fix - its verdict is identical with a 0s and a 400s beacon, because the fixture records a daemon lock and no watcher lock, and with away mode off the daemon lock proves nothing. Not fixed here; tracked separately, with the requirement that any fix be shown to FAIL when the protection is removed. FULL SUITE ON macOS: 189 scripts, four red, none of them this change. The turn-end guard and remote-handoff suites are clean. Attribution was established by running the four failures at the base commit and at this head on an idle machine, because base-idle against head-under-load moves two variables at once: script head/loaded base/idle head/idle verdict fm-calm-pi-extension red red red pre-existing fm-backlog-atomicity red red red pre-existing fm-procevent red red red pre-existing fm-startup-network red green green cause unestablished, load-sensitive under a full run Reported, not fixed. fm-calm-pi-extension deserves its own note: it FAILS because Chrome is absent instead of declaring the capability it needs and standing aside, so its verdict is about the machine rather than its subject - the same family as the defect above, with the red at least announcing itself. Neighbouring class, reported not changed: `file_mode()` - a verbatim `uname = Darwin ? stat -f %Lp : stat -c %a` - is copy-pasted across at least five test scripts plus a `reread_mode` variant, and epoch-mtime reads are open-coded as `date -r … || stat -c %Y` in three more; same one-owner shape as the defect above. `git init` without `-b main` depends on the host's init.defaultBranch in several scripts (branch-name case, tracked elsewhere). timeout, sha256sum and sed -i uses are all correctly guarded where checked. Observed while building the check rather than the fix: the first watcher I wrote to wait for the suite matched its own command line, so it was waiting on its own existence and could never fire. Same shape as the cases above - machinery answering confidently about something other than its subject, by including itself in the evidence it was meant to judge. The file sentinel it was replaced with cannot be produced by the observer that reads it. * fix(review): Pin fixture timestamps to UTC across DST transitions * fix(document): Clarify shared fixture suite coverage

The shard ran the default-on live guard tests/fm-pi-branch-responsiveness-live-e2e.test.sh, whose idle arm loads .pi/extensions/fm-branch-supervision.ts into a scratch project with a fixed list of copied libs. This PR added `import { registerFirstmateTool } from "./lib/fm-native-contract.ts"` to that extension and updated every other loading fixture's copy list, but missed this guard. Pi 0.85.1 therefore refused to load the extension ("Cannot find module './lib/fm-native-contract.ts'"), never drew its TUI, the test failed with "Pi 0.85.1 never drew its TUI in the idle arm", and the job hit its 20-minute cap.

Swept all other suites referencing fm-branch-supervision.ts / fm-primary-pi-watch.ts; the remaining ones without the new lib only hash, path-reference, or string-match the files and do not load them into Pi, so no further fixture changes are needed. Verification: reproduced the mechanism against the installed Pi 0.85.1 by building the lab copy with the old lib list (load error as above) and the fixed list (loads cleanly). tmux is not installed on this machine, so the live guard itself gate-skips locally ("skip: live: tmux absent") and could not be run end to end here; CI (which has tmux and Pi) will exercise it. shellcheck is clean on the edited file --------- Co-authored-by: Talon Stark <talonstark@gmail.com>
…guid#4041) * fix(herdr): step around a stale client the running server refuses A remote host can carry a self-updated herdr in ~/.local/bin beside a package-managed one, and the fixed remote-job PATH resolves ~/.local/bin first. After the server upgraded to 0.9.0 (protocol 22) the stale 0.8.2 client (protocol 20) was answered with protocol_mismatch on every command, which the read classifiers folded into `unreadable`: the live remote secondmate read unknown, every doorbell into it failed, and both the spawn and relaunch recovery paths refused, so the defect trapped itself. The adapter's session-scoped CLI wrapper now recognizes that refusal, reads status per session from each distinct herdr on PATH, adopts the first one the running server reports compatible, retries once, and keeps it for the process. The happy path makes no extra call and no other failure reselects. An endpoint that still reads unreadable names the refused client, both protocols, and the fix on stderr; the remote state read, fm-crew-state, and the launch refusal carry that reason, and fm-remote-doctor reports the selected client and rebinds the launch agent to it. Regression coverage: fake two-client hosts in the herdr unit suite, the doctor suite, the crew-state remote arm, and the real host-local control script in the remote lifecycle e2e; the real-herdr smoke refreshes the status shape the selection reads. * no-mistakes(review): Reselect Herdr client after every protocol mismatch * no-mistakes(review): Remove unrequired Herdr diagnostics and launch-agent rebinding * no-mistakes(review): Scope cached Herdr clients to their selected session * no-mistakes(review): Restrict herdr client selection to reactive CLI calls * no-mistakes(document): Document session-scoped Herdr client reselection * no-mistakes(document): Clarify Herdr client selection documentation * no-mistakes(ci): Updated the trusted fm-remote-doctor.sh SHA-256 in bin/fm-remote-entrypoint.sh after the PR changed the doctor, restoring git-unavailable bootstrap authentication.

* feat(afk): record the away posture and its lifecycle (phase 1) Away mode becomes a posture of the one supervision session, recorded in state/.afk-contract by the new bin/fm-afk-contract.sh: the one owner of the record schema, the mandate-clause grammar and compiler, refusal naming the missing part, the read-back rendering, the entry announcement (hold-for-return only, no phone channel), and the archive at return. This release records clauses and does not execute them; the announcement and return brief say so. bin/fm-afk-launch.sh gains propose and confirm, confirms the record before any daemon launch, refuses to launch the daemon on Pi and pi-signed, and archives the record last on stop. bin/fm-afk-return.sh snapshots supervisor health before shutdown, renders the return brief (health, mandate, waiting on the captain, could not fix, handled, cost) from the archived record, the outcome store, the held set, and the status logs, and shrinks the blocker gate to what the away session could not fix. While the record exists the watcher and the daemon never recheck an item held for the captain. Declared external waits get a four-hour default cadence and honor `until <UTC ISO 8601>` on the paused line, in both postures, bounded by FM_PAUSE_UNTIL_MAX_SECS. The /afk skill, AGENTS.md's layout and away-mode stub, the session-start digest, and the architecture, Pi branch, configuration, and scripts docs describe the record. The Pi/Herdr e2e now proves the no-daemon posture on a real Pi primary; its verification record carries the 2026-09-08 run. * no-mistakes(review): Fix AFK confirmation, grammar, waits, and return gating * no-mistakes(review): Harden AFK authority and posture lifecycle * no-mistakes(review): Preserve AFK history and tighten authority grammar * refactor(afk): record clause fields with no natural-language parser By the captain's mandate the away-posture record keeps no static parser that tries to understand natural language. A mandate clause is now given as explicit fields (--action, --object, --when, optional --stop) that bin/fm-afk-contract.sh records verbatim. The structural check asserts only that the action, object, and precondition fields are present and that the action is a listed verb; whether a precondition holds is the supervision session's judgment at execution time in a later phase. The never-set stays as a forbidden-concept safety scan: fields mentioning credentials, passwords, logins, legal or financial acceptance, payments, invoices, one-time codes, or an attended prompt are refused, matched at token prefixes after punctuation normalization so compound and plural spellings are caught. The red-check grammar, class-word rejection, unconditional-word detection, clause-reference resolution, and condition aliases are removed. --words-file keeps the captain's words verbatim, trailing newline included.

…enguid#3710) * fix(bearings): keep captain-approved deliveries in Recently Landed A closed task is never held: tasks-axi clears the held flag when a task closes and keeps hold-kind and the hold reason as the record of the call that was made. Recently Landed excluded every Done row whose hold-kind was captain, so the marker it treated as "closed while still waiting on the captain" was in fact the proof that the captain had approved the work. Every merge routed through a captain decision disappeared from the list of what shipped, including under --all-landed. The selector now asks whether the closed row delivered something. Recently Landed is merged PRs, completed scouts, and finished local-only merges, so a row carrying one of those artifacts belongs there whoever approved it. A captain question closes with an answer and no artifact of its own, and that is what still stays out, so an answered question is never rendered as shipped work. The same rule was written twice - the bearings projection selects this home's Done rows and the fleet snapshot selects each secondmate home's Done rows into the roll-up the same section merges in - which is why one defect hid deliveries in every home. Both now share bin/fm-landed-lib.sh. * fix(review): Normalize landed evidence and exclude answered captain questions * fix(review): Normalize captain delivery evidence across relocated data * fix(review): Record authoritative delivery provenance with legacy fallback * fix(review): Harden delivery provenance across forced and pruned completions * fix(review): Replace premature merge closure with existing release contract * fix(review): Document provenance-based Recently Landed selection * fix(document): Align documentation with completion provenance * fix(lint): Fix targeted ShellCheck warnings * fix(ci): order the pinned tasks-axi install before its stock-Bash consumers In `.github/workflows/ci.yml` the pinned tasks-axi install now precedes both stock-Bash consumers, and the Bearings expectation is updated from 49 to 50 tests. Verified with macOS Bash 3.2: snapshot 16/16, Bearings 50/50, public-followup 1/1. Full repository lint and all three workflow validations pass, and `git diff --check` is clean. * fix(review): Make completion provenance unambiguous * fix(review): Make completion verdict authoritative over quoted provenance * fix(review): Preserve retained artifacts through resumed captain closes * fix(review): Unify completion provenance ordering across writer and reader * fix(review): Preserve artifacts across failed captain closes * fix(review): Refresh v1 assertions; provenance authority remains unresolved * fix(review): Remove unreliable provenance while preserving landed deliveries * fix(review): Reject stale home summaries visibly * fix(review): Restore retained deliverable recording * fix(review): Match landed artifacts and restore retention documentation * fix(review): Disambiguate captain calls and restore landed artifact matching * fix(review): Persist retained report and PR artifacts * fix(review): Preserve staged artifacts before captain answers * fix(review): Avoid wedging answers on unsupported report paths * fix(review): Exclude unreleased captain-held pull requests * fix(review): Exclude held local-only answers from landed * fix(review): Preserve retained scout reports across snapshot rendering * fix(document): Align landed lifecycle documentation with release semantics * fix(review): Enforce landed artifact-kind ownership * fix(review): Infer canonical task kinds in snapshots * fix(review): Require captain-hold release before merges * fix(review): Qualify merge lifecycle regression evidence * fix(review): Serialize captain holds with merge operations * fix(review): Document merge cleanup residuals honestly * fix(test): Replace vacuous Bearings regression with behavioral cases * fix(document): Align Bearings verification and merge lifecycle documentation * fix(review): Serialize merges and exclude captain calls from landed * fix(review): Harden merge identity and landed selection * fix(document): Clarify landed selector compatibility filtering * fix(bin): keep merge entrypoints usable on records without an incarnation The merge identity guard refused any task record with no spawn_gen field. That field identifies one exact incarnation, so comparing it across the wait for the merge lock is what catches a task relaunched while the merge was queued. Requiring it to be present is a different rule, and it refused every record written before the field existed: a legacy task could no longer be merged at all, and five behaviour suites refused before reaching the check they were written to exercise. The comparison only needs to notice a change. An absent field is now read as an empty incarnation and compared like any other value, so a record that gains, loses, or alters one is still refused, while a record that simply predates the field merges. An ambiguous or unreadable field stays an error, because a record that cannot name one incarnation cannot be compared. The missing-record message each entrypoint had before the guard is restored, so a genuinely absent record still says so in its own words. The role partition now precedes reading the record. Refusing the supervision branch is a statement about the actor, not about the task, so it cannot depend on a record the wrong actor may not have. A backlog file that does not exist meant "no longer an open captain call". For a caller that asked to tell absence apart it now means absent, so a board card whose home carries no backlog stays visible instead of being dropped as resolved. Fixture repositories pin their initial branch instead of inheriting init.defaultBranch, which resolved to main on a developer machine and master on a runner, so a fixture naming main failed only in CI. * fix(review): read local-only note from body; surface pending-close failures * fix(review): keep kindless local-only landings in Recently Landed * fix(review): bind local-only note scan to the tasks-axi note line * fix(review): Guard unavailable captain-hold authority records * fix(document): Document unreadable authority predicate outcome * fix(bin): read an absent backlog as absence, not an unreadable record The merge gate refused every task whose home carries no backlog file. A backlog that does not exist holds no captain call, so nothing can be held and the merge is safe; only a backlog that exists and cannot be read may hide a live hold. Those two states were collapsed into one refusal, which stopped merges in any home that keeps no backlog. The predicate now reports a missing backlog file as absence, alongside a row the backlog does not carry. A record that exists but cannot be read still leaves by the existing cannot-tell path, which both merge entrypoints already refuse, so the restrictive direction is unchanged. That leaves no way to reach the separate unavailable-record result, so the result and the two branches that handled it are removed rather than left describing an outcome that can no longer occur. The lifecycle documentation loses the same claim. Regressions cover both directions in each entrypoint: a home with a task record and no backlog merges, and a backlog present but unreadable refuses without reaching the forge. * fix(review): Fail closed unreadable backend configuration * fix(tests): pin the bare origin's initial branch in the remote seed fixture The fixture created its bare origin with no initial branch, so that repository's HEAD followed init.defaultBranch while the source repository pushed the branch fm_git_init_commit pins. On a host that still defaults to master the two disagreed: the bare origin's HEAD named a branch the push never created, cloning it warned that the remote HEAD referred to a nonexistent ref and checked out nothing, and the seed assertion for the cloned README failed. A machine whose default is already main paired the two by accident and hid it, which is why the fixture passed locally and failed on the runner. Pinning the bare origin to the same branch removes the dependency on the ambient default from both sides. Verified under both conditions: with init.defaultBranch set to master, and set to main, the suite passes 26 of 26. * fix(review): Fail closed unreadable user backend configuration * fix(bin): republish the home summary as v1 and record two load-bearing rules The published home-summary schema had moved to v3, which routed every secondmate home still emitting the earlier version to the stale branch: their landed rows, open decisions and holds all came back empty and their state read as unknown until each home was updated. The payload never justified that. Its field set, field order, truncations and the landed array construction are byte-identical to v1, so only which rows the selector places in landed differs, and a v1 consumer reads that the same way. Republishing as v1 removes the rollout regression and, with it, the tolerance machinery that existed only to soften the bump: the stale-schema predicate, its two collection branches, the flag and its provenance branch, the omitted surface that can no longer be reached, and the fixtures and assertions that covered them. Two rules that a scope review proposed removing are kept, each now carrying the reason it exists, because both were measured to be load-bearing: The artifact-kind ownership clause is what keeps an explicit scout that recorded no report out of Recently Landed. Without it such a row has none of the three artifacts, satisfies the compatibility fallback and renders as shipped work with an empty artifact. The kind fallback is needed because tasks-axi omits the kind metadata entirely when a title begins with a canonical keyword. Without it a scout titled "SCOUT ..." reports no kind, its recorded report stops counting as a delivery, and it drops out of the section this selector exists to repair. * fix(bin): move the scout guard note onto the rule and drop two dead pieces The LOAD-BEARING note sat on an unreachable branch. Measured in both directions: removing that branch together with the kind-is-not-scout guards lets an explicit reportless scout into Recently Landed and fails tests/fm-captain-hold-lifecycle.test.sh, while removing the branch alone leaves that suite passing at 49 assertions. The guards carry the rule, so the note now sits on them and the unreachable branch is gone. A note pointing a later reader at the wrong line is the hazard this change corrects elsewhere. summary_file_has_schema lost its only caller when the stale-schema machinery was removed, so it goes with it. * fix(review): Fix legacy report artifacts and canonical keyword boundaries * fix(review): Update pinned Bearings test count to 56 * fix(document): Clarify landed summary compatibility documentation * fix(review): Preserve unreadable backend configuration errors * fix(review): Honor backend resolution errors at existing call sites * fix(test): Stabilize remote collector tests under host load * fix(document): Document backend resolution failure contracts * fix(lint): Suppress intentional deferred probe expansion warnings * fix(ci): Captain, quoted the two literal test IDs in tests/fm-backlog-atomicity.test.sh to fix SC2100 without changing behavior. Both warnings reproduced before the fix; the targeted fm-lint.sh run now passes with ShellCheck 0.11.0. Bash syntax and git diff --check also pass * fix(ci): Fixed the resolver’s two configuration-parent checks to return 2 for inaccessible directories while preserving genuine absence. Added two behavioral tests; RED/GREEN and both requested mutation proofs confirmed. All 10 focused checks, targeted lint, syntax, and whitespace checks passed. Broader merge suite stopped after 10 passing cases under host load. Declined portable checks and merge-authority code remain unchanged
…nguid#4090) * fix(remote): let the Aqua launch agent own the fm-remote Herdr session A herdr server keeps the macOS audit session of whatever started it, and only the Aqua login session (gui/<uid>) can read the login keychain without a prompt. Herdr's SSH remote attach starts the fm-remote server as its own child when it finds none, wins the socket at boot because sshd accepts connections before the login session exists, and every claude pane under that server then gets `security` exit 36, falls back to a stale plaintext credentials file, and reports "Login expired". launchd's own job lost the socket on every KeepAlive retry and the doctor still reported the session ready because it only asked whether any server answered. - Add bin/fm-remote-herdr-guard.sh, the launch agent's exec target: start the server in the foreground when nothing owns the socket, exit 0 when an Aqua-born server does, and otherwise stop the foreign server, wait for the socket, and exec the server at once. - Add bin/fm-remote-herdr-owner-lib.sh, the single owner of socket-owner discovery (lsof; pgrep cannot see herdr's argv on macOS) and the birth markers (SSH_*, XPC_SERVICE_NAME, FM_REMOTE_JOB_ACTIVE, sshd or remote-client-bridge ancestry matched on argv[0] and whole arguments). - Render the agent as the login shell exec'ing the guard with KeepAlive={SuccessfulExit=false} and ThrottleInterval=10, check the loaded job's successful-exit semaphore, and report a session served outside the Aqua login session as fixable so --fix retakes it through launchd; the reload waits for an Aqua-born owner rather than any running server. - Correct the doctor and docs: the launch shell provides environment parity, the launchd domain provides keychain access. - Pin the guard's decision table and the doctor's verdicts against real marker-carrying processes, and record the dated audit-session evidence. * no-mistakes(review): Verify Aqua ownership through launchd domains * no-mistakes(document): Document macOS lsof ownership requirement
…uid#2881) * fix(bin): prefer a live no-mistakes run over a terminal one A worktree can bind to more than one recorded no-mistakes run at once. The branch-and-code-identity rule in bin/fm-nm-run-lib.sh accepts both an exact-equal commit and a worktree-is-an-ancestor match, but never stated which wins when both bind, so the tie fell to whichever candidate the caller reached first. Observed on a live fleet: a crashed validation daemon left a FAILED run at the worktree's own commit while the live run that replaced it validated a descendant commit on the same branch. Bare `axi status` answers with the most-recently-touched run - the corpse - and it bound by the equal-commit rule, so every recomputation reported `failed` for a task whose real run was healthy. The same label had also read `failed` earlier while the work was genuinely stalled, so the signal was wrong in both directions. State the live-over-terminal policy in the matching rule's own contract, where the equal-commit and ancestor rules already live, and add fm_nm_run_status_class as the one classifier that decides liveness from a recorded status word. fm-crew-state.sh applies it on both selection paths: the runs listing now scans past a terminal row for a live one, and a terminal `axi status` answer is provisional until the listing has been asked whether this worktree also has a live run. Same-liveness-class candidates keep the listing's newest-first precedence, and a status word the classifier cannot place keeps the caller's own ordering rather than displacing a known result, so a single-run task and a task whose runs are all terminal are unchanged. Regression coverage reproduces the proven case (terminal run at the worktree's exact commit plus a live run descending from it) and its runs-list twin; both fail under the old tie-break. Two companion cases pin the no-widening half - two terminal rows still resolve newest-first, and a terminal run with no live sibling keeps its full run-step detail - and both pass before and after the change. * no-mistakes(review): accept unfetched live sibling anchored at exact worktree head * docs(bin): name both ledger reads behind the runs-limit setting The FM_CREW_STATE_RUNS_LIMIT comment in bin/fm-crew-state.sh still described the runs ledger as scanned only by the cross-branch fallback, but the live-over-terminal fix also consults it as the live-sibling probe behind a terminal axi status answer. Point the comment at docs/configuration.md as the setting's owner instead of restating a second copy.

…chenguid#4009) * fix(procevent): make the ordinary stop signal actually stop a runner The owner guard that shipped in kunchenguid#3904 half-reaps. Against a poll child that handles the ordinary stop signal and keeps waiting, the guard signals the group, loses the runner leader to its own signal, then reads that success as a leaderless group and exits without escalating. It destroys the only proof of ownership that would have authorised the forced signal, so the survivor becomes unreachable by retire, reconcile, sweep-home and the guard alike. A guard that turns a leaking-but-identifiable generation into a permanently unreachable one is worse than no guard at all. Two defects, and they hid each other: - The escalation re-derived ownership from the leader. `runner_group_signal` now takes a `proved` mode, passed only by the escalation inside the stop that already proved and signalled that exact generation moments earlier. A leader dying to our own signal is the ordinary outcome, not fresh ambiguity. - Every stop held the per-source lock across its wait while the runner's own exit cleanup waited unboundedly for that same lock. That circular wait was broken only by the forced signal, so the forced signal silently became the normal path - and, by keeping the leader alive through the whole window, it masked the escalation defect above. The runner's exit cleanup now refuses that lock instead of waiting for it, which is what its existing `return 0` already said it did. Fixing the lock alone would have turned every stop of a signal-proof child into a refusal that leaves it running, so both land together and the tests pin that. Measured on macOS with a stand-in poll child that traps TERM, INT and HUP: the guard left it running past 70s and now clears the group within the lease plus one check; retiring a healthy runner fell from ~2.8s with a forced group signal every time to ~0.6s on the ordinary signal alone. Unchanged and stated deliberately: a leader lost to anything other than the stop's own signal still leaves a group that retire, reconcile, sweep-home and the guard all refuse, permanently - and that source stops listening without saying so. Whether such a group may ever be signalled is an open decision and is not answered here. * fix(review): Fix proved escalation race and stop regression assertions * fix(review): Preserve proved escalation through transient identity failures * fix(review): Simplify proved escalation and correct guard timing documentation * fix(document): Clarify process-event stop ownership and cleanup limits * fix(document): Clarify process-event stop ownership and fixture comments * revert(skills): restore the leaderless-ambiguity limit to the loaded skill An automatic documentation step in this branch's validation edited .agents/skills/process-event-sources/SKILL.md, which no instruction in this change asked it to touch. That file is not documentation about the code: it is the agent-loaded instruction surface, what an agent reads to know what it is permitted to do. The step deleted this line: - leaderless PID/PGID-reuse ambiguity preserves the claim without signalling or replacement, as owned by the operating contract in [`docs/configuration.md`](../../../docs/configuration.md#process-to-event-sources-stateprocevent); and folded it, with its neighbour, into a generic "registration and ownership transitions, stop authority, and claim reclamation follow the operating contract". That deleted line states a PROHIBITION - that such a group is preserved WITHOUT SIGNALLING - and it is the exact limit an open captain decision currently rests on. Folded into a pointer, an agent reading the skill to learn what it may do would have to chase a second document to discover it may not signal. A prohibition that requires a second lookup is not a prohibition. The effect was to weaken, in the instructions themselves, the boundary that keeps one home from signalling another's process group - while the question of whether that boundary should move at all is still open. This is a deliberate revert, not an oversight, and it restores the file exactly to its pre-branch state. The full statement also survives in docs/configuration.md; that does not rescue it, because the agent handling a process-event wake loads the skill and not the documentation. * revert(procevent): restore the open-question marking beside the escalation The same automatic documentation step that edited the loaded skill also removed this from the comment above runner_group_signal: A leaderless group nobody in this call ever proved remains refused too, for every caller. That untouched refusal is what makes a crashed leader's group permanent, and relaxing it is a separate open question, not something this path assumes. and replaced it with a pointer to docs/configuration.md. This one fails differently from the skill deletion, which is why it is restored separately. There, a prohibition was moved out of the reader's path, and a missing prohibition gets violated. Here the prohibition survives in code - the unproved path still refuses - and what was removed is the fact that the limit is UNDECIDED. A prohibition that has quietly lost its "this is still open" reads as settled design, and settled design gets relied on, extended, and eventually relaxed by someone confident they understand why it is there. That question is open right now. The rule this branch's four instances produce, stated once here because this is the point of decision: an unresolved question must be marked unresolved AT THE POINT OF DECISION, not only where the contract is documented. A reader who does not know something is open will treat it as closed, and that default is stronger than any pointer overcomes. The pointer added by that step is kept alongside; this restores what it replaced rather than reverting it. * docs(verification): restore the measured guard bound and its reason The document step's rewrite of this record dropped the concrete figure while keeping the surrounding measurements. What went missing was the bound itself - lease plus two consecutive failed checks plus the stop's grace, roughly 630 seconds at the shipped 600-second lease and 15-second check - together with the reason there are two checks rather than one: a single unreadable read must not be enough to kill a live runner. The mechanism survived elsewhere and the reason survived in docs/configuration.md, so nothing was lost from the repository. The concreteness was, and that is what this restores. A number recorded without why it is that number is the one a later reader shortens; the reason is the whole safety argument for the debounce, and the debounce is what stops the reaper killing a live runner on one bad read. * fix(document): Replace stale stop-authority summaries with owner pointers * test(procevent): make the guard-bound case able to fail for its own reason An automated reviewer observed that this case allowed sixty seconds for a bound of roughly eight, so it could not go red for the reason it names: it would have passed a guard that took fifty-five seconds. That is correct, and it is the same family as the defect the case exists to defend against - a check that is green because it cannot fail, rather than because the thing it guards is working. The deadline is now derived from the bound itself - the lease, plus the two consecutive failed checks the guard debounces on, plus the stop's own ordinary and forced signal windows - rather than from a flat wall-clock number, and the shortened lease and check the fixtures run under have a single definition so a derived deadline cannot silently diverge from the settings the guard is given. The doubling that remains is a load allowance and is documented as one; widening it to make a slow guard pass would convert the assertion back into decoration. Proven by mutation rather than by argument. Against the repaired case: correct code ok guard debounces on 20 misses instead of 2 not ok - "still holding the group after 16s, against a documented bound of 8s" proved escalation removed (the original defect) not ok - same code restored ok The previous sixty-second version passes every one of those mutations. The reviewer's other claim, that the guard can survive past the announced bound when an owner disappears immediately after a check, was measured and does not hold against what this branch announces. Sweeping the phase deliberately at 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 of a check interval gave 7.21s, 7.31s, 6.75s, 6.49s and 6.31s, worst 7.31s, against the announced lease plus two consecutive failed checks plus stop grace, which is up to 8s at those settings. The mechanism the reviewer describes is real and is the announced mechanism; the bound it was measured against is a phrasing this branch no longer carries. * revert(scope): return the instruction surfaces to their base state This delivery is being split. It carries the two proven process fixes alone; the instruction text travels separately, through a run that removes the documentation step rather than refusing it at its gate. Two surfaces are therefore returned to exactly what the base branch has, so this delivery neither adds to them nor removes from them: .agents/skills/process-event-sources/SKILL.md - identical to base again. Three bullets an automatic documentation step had folded into a pointer, including that leaderless PID/PGID-reuse ambiguity preserves the claim WITHOUT SIGNALLING and that there is one identity-matched owner per canonical source across homes sharing one store. The header comment block of bin/fm-procevent.sh, which is what the script prints as its own help. Seven lines were removed from it: that a live owner is never displaced, that only a claim whose stale owner and independently absent process group prove its whole generation gone is reclaimed, that a crashed leader or reused pid whose process group still has members cannot relax ownership cleanup, and that reconcile signals only a live identity-matched runner group and otherwise keeps the claim without starting a replacement. The help output is now byte-identical to base. Neither removal was requested by any instruction in this change, and both were made to text that predates it. Returning them is scoping, not a third restoration: nothing is being added to those files here. * fix(ci): Captain, live CI revealed a fixture deadlock: it suspended the runner before startup released its lock. Added a public-list synchronization barrier in tests/fm-procevent.test.sh. Forced-delay reproduction detected the deadlock before the fix; all four cases passed afterward. Targeted lint, Bash syntax, and whitespace checks passed. Greptile’s watchdog requirement conflicts with the recorded R2 decision; runtime behavior and documentation remain unchanged. Full CI rerun belongs to the outer executor * test(procevent): make the post-TERM cases report what they saw when they fail On the failure path only, these cases now print what they actually saw: the identity recorded at claim time, the identity readable at that moment, the size of the signals file, the leader's state and wchan, every live member of the runner's process group with its own state and wchan, the elapsed time since the stop began, and what retire said. None of it runs when a case passes. WHY THIS IS KEPT, stated accurately rather than by its original reason. It was written to make an unexplained CI failure verifiable. That failure is now explained - it was a fixture deadlock, diagnosed and repaired in the preceding commit - so that justification has expired and is not the reason given here. The reason it stays is smaller and independent of that failure: it is already written, it is small, it sits in the file whose assertion this change reworked, and an assertion that could not say why it failed cost most of a morning to diagnose from the outside. The next failure will not be this one. WHAT A PASSING RUN WOULD NOT MEAN: a pass is a sample of behaviour already observed many times, not proof that anything is fixed. Only a failure carrying the evidence above establishes a cause. * fix(document): Clarify process-event fixture diagnostic rationale * fix(ci): Captain, fixed two cleanup races in tests/fm-procevent.test.sh: removed premature child completion and waited for runner exit before retiring the restart fixture. Controlled Linux reproductions demonstrated failure before and success after. The full Linux process-event suite, six focused macOS checks, targeted ShellCheck, Bash syntax, and whitespace checks passed. Runtime behavior, guard debounce, and documentation remain unchanged. CI rerun belongs to the outer executor * fix(procevent): bound owner-guard cleanup at one check interval, not two A THIRD WAY, not a capitulation to the reviewer and not a refusal of it. The automated reviewer's grievance was the LOOSENESS OF THE BOUND, not the number of observations the guard makes before it acts. It asked for a single read because that was the only route it could see to an acceptable bound. There was another route, and this change takes it: the bound is reached and both reads are kept. TIGHTENED - the SPACING of the guard's two reads, not their number. The owner watchdog now sleeps half the configured check interval and still requires two consecutive failing reads, so the pair completes inside one check interval instead of costing two. Worst-case detection falls from the lease term plus TWO check intervals to the lease term plus ONE. At the shipped 600s lease and 15s interval the stated bound falls from ~635s to ~620s. PRESERVED - the second read. bin/fm-procevent.sh's two-consecutive-miss rule is untouched. WHY IT PROTECTS: the guard's inputs are a lease read and a state-root identity read, and either can fail transiently on a live, healthy home. Acting on the first failure would let one isolated unreadable read kill a live service. Requiring a second, independent read is what makes that impossible, and it is a protection rather than padding. Nothing was traded away to reach the bound. Both properties are now guarded by their own case, and each was proven by MUTATION rather than asserted: - putting a full interval back between the two reads fails the bound case: "still running 17.0s after the last owner activity, against a documented bound of 15s"; - acting on one failed read fails the new debounce case: "one unreadable lease read ended a runner whose home was still alive" - while the bound case then passes FASTER, 9.9s against 13.1s. The unsafe variant being the quicker one is exactly why these are two cases: one elapsed-time case would have registered the removal of the protection as an improvement. MEASURED, sampling the phase between the guard's check clock and the lease clock across eight runs per variant, on macOS (Darwin 25.5.0). Reaping an orphaned listener whose home stopped refreshing its lease: lease 2s / interval 1s: 4.41-5.29s before, 3.48-4.65s after lease 2s / interval 4s: 7.69-8.12s before, 5.94-6.13s after The 4s configuration is the informative one: the gap is about one check interval, which is precisely the term that was removed. A previously unstated term of the bound surfaced while measuring: the lease age is compared in whole seconds, so a configured lease of N is honoured until that age reads N+1. It is now part of the documented bound and of the regression's derivation instead of being absorbed into a fudge factor. The bound regression derives its deadline from the documented bound instead of a flat number, and PINS the phase between the guard's check clock and the lease clock rather than sampling it, because with a sampled phase a guard spending two intervals passes about half the time on a lucky alignment. Its load slack is additive and stays under half a check interval, so an extra whole interval cannot hide inside it. The two flat deadlines that were there before (40s and 20s) and the doubling allowance on the derived one are gone; that looseness was the reviewer's third complaint. The stop's own grace is untouched: 2s for the ordinary signal, then 2s for the forced one. It is a ceiling paid only by a group that outlives the signal it was sent, not a delay every stop pays - a healthy runner's whole retire measures 0.40-0.66s on this host. The reviewer's literal "lease plus one tick" is unreachable by any implementation, since signalling a process and giving it any chance to exit takes non-zero time; detection now meets it and the stop runs inside its own ceiling, and the contract says so rather than glossing it. NECESSARY BUT NOT SUFFICIENT, and written BEFORE this head's integration runs start rather than after they report. On the previous head, "Behavior portable serial 1" and "Behavior portable serial 4" were both CANCELLED at the job ceiling, independently of this finding. A new head triggers fresh runs, so those two lanes MAY complete this time. IF THEY DO, THAT IS NOT EVIDENCE THE CEILING DEFECT IS FIXED. It is one more sample of a lane that has been cut repeatedly and sometimes is not; the shard-packing repair for it is open separately. Do not reread a lucky pass here as a resolution. Relatedly, and deliberately: the per-script duration hint in bin/fm-test-run.sh was NOT updated even though the two new cases add ~19s of wall clock. docs/fm-test-portable-shards.md says those hints are replaced wholesale from CI timing artifacts of green runs, and that repair is the open request doing it; a hand-edited estimate here would collide with it and silently repack the shards. This suite runs in portable serial shard 3, which was green in the last run. Verification: tests/fm-procevent.test.sh green, plus tests/fm-captain-hold-lifecycle.test.sh, the test-coverage guard, and bin/fm-lint.sh. The unrelated "reconcile stops a runner whose registration was removed" case flaked in 4 of 7 local full runs; an isolated 20-trial reproduction measured it at 13/20 unclean before this change and 11/20 after, so it is issue 4080 and is not aggravated here. * fix(procevent): repair our decimal-interval regression and enforce the timing phase REPAIRED BEFORE PUBLICATION, AND IT WAS OURS. The half-interval arithmetic added by the previous commit read a zero-prefixed interval as octal: 010 halved to 4 instead of 5, and 08 was not a number at all, so the owner guard died before reporting ready and the runner failed closed and never listened. The validator accepts those values and `[` compares them as decimal, so this broke a configuration that worked before. Introduced by this delivery, found in review, repaired here. Forcing base ten before the arithmetic is the whole runtime fix. Proven by driving it rather than by reading the source: a new case starts a real listener at 08 and at 010 and observes the guard's actual sleep argument - 4s and 5s. Removing the normalisation turns that case red with "a zero-prefixed decimal interval (08) prevented the listener from starting". THE TIMING PHASE IS NOW OBSERVED AND ENFORCED, NOT ASSUMED. The bound case pinned its phase by CONSTRUCTION, from an assumed startup time, and enforced nothing. Review was right that this is not enough: once startup reaches about two seconds the expiry lands in a different part of the interval and the case silently stops rejecting a two-interval guard while still reporting success. A bound that cannot fail for the reason it names is the defect this whole delivery exists to correct, so it must not ship inside the fix for it. Now the lease is synchronised to the guard's own FIRST observed lease read, every later real read is recorded, and the case REFUSES unless one recorded read proves the required phase: it read the synchronised reference, it was still fresh, and it began late enough that two further full intervals could not finish before the deadline. An unestablished precondition refuses; it does not proceed on trust. The derived deadline, the two-read debounce and the additive slack are unchanged, and the slack invariant is now asserted rather than left to a comment. Review also found the deadline was only ever checked while the group was still alive, so a sampler descheduled past it would see the group gone and certify success. The observed completion time is now checked too. PROVEN BY MUTATION, each one run against this code: - remove the decimal normalisation -> the interval case fails on 08; - a full interval between the two reads -> "the guard exceeded its bound: group still running 17.1s ... against a documented bound of 15s"; - a full interval WITH startup forced to ~2.5s, which is exactly the condition the old construction pin could not survive -> still red, same message; - the same ~2.5s startup with the correct guard -> still passes, 13.0s against the 15s bound, so the delay alone does not break the case; - phase evidence made unavailable -> "could not establish the required pre-expiry guard-read phase", a refusal rather than a pass, even though the group stopped quickly; - act on one failed read -> the debounce case fails and the bound case passes FASTER, 9.5s against 12.7s, which is why these remain separate cases. Verification: full tests/fm-procevent.test.sh green, and bin/fm-lint.sh clean. * fix(document): Correct process-event timing and debounce comments

The completion gate passed, cleanup ran, and the captain's question moved to Done with no recorded answer: the one thing the policy says must never happen. `tasks-axi done` closes a held row silently, and nothing in teardown asked whether the row was the captain's own call. bin/fm-captain-hold.sh gains the read-only `open` predicate: exit 0 when the task is still an open captain call, 1 when it is not, 2 when that cannot be established. It reads the row through the transition library's backend-aware probe, so it addresses the same backlog teardown does; the script's other commands now address the configured data directory the same way instead of FM_HOME, which also fixes captain holds in a home with a relocated data directory. Teardown asks `open` before any destructive step and refuses on 2. On 0 only the close changes: after cleanup and still under the task's own lock, the row gets one "Deliverable of the finished work" line at the end of its body and returns to Queued through `tasks-axi reopen`, keeping its hold, so it lands in Captain's Call instead of reading as work under way. --force does not lift this: it authorizes discarding unlanded work, never the captain's question. The deliverable goes into the body because `tasks-axi update --report` rewrites the title of a row that is not Done. The crash window reuses the pending-close record teardown already stages: a `mode=retain` line makes the existing replay record the deliverable and reopen instead of closing, with the same validator, stale-generation check, cleanup-incomplete marking, and non-blocking bootstrap lock as an ordinary close. A retained row the captain answered first simply retires the record. No parallel record type, recovery command, or second bootstrap loop is introduced. Regressions run the real executables: the captain-held scout survives cleanup queued, held, with its deliverable and on the board, only `answer` closes it, --force keeps it open, and an ordinary scout still closes with its report; an interrupted cleanup leaves the row untouched and the next session start retains it; a relocated backlog keeps the retention in its one configured file; and a ship row whose hold cannot be read refuses cleanup before anything destructive.

* fix(herdr): classify a gone session's endpoint as recoverable A task whose Herdr endpoint could not be read was classified `unreadable`, which blocks recovery by design. The commonest reason that read fails is that the recorded session's server is not running at all - a host reboot, a server exit, a session never restored - and that is authoritative absence for every pane in that session, not an ambiguous answer about one of them. Tasks in that state had no sanctioned way back. The recovery-grade read now settles an uninterpretable pane read with the session server's own `.server.running` state: positively stopped reads `missing`, while a running server, or a server state that cannot itself be read, still reads `unreadable`. Resting the verdict on that field rather than on the `server_not_running` error code is what keeps it working across Herdr 0.8.x and 0.9.0, since the field is present on both and the code is not. Only that one boundary is widened. The husk classifier under it stays strict, so duplicate prevention, rollback, and teardown - the paths that can destroy something - keep refusing on exactly the reads they refused on before. Separately, a relaunch refused outright when the endpoint's shell had drifted out of the recorded worktree. An agent's own exit routinely leaves its shell somewhere else, so that refusal stranded tasks whose work was sitting untouched on disk. The shell is now told once to return, and only a shell that will not go refuses; the replacement still never starts outside the copy holding the work. Herdr 0.8.x is not installed on this host, so protocol-20 coverage is structural plus the adapter fixture exercising both response shapes, and is recorded as such rather than as a live result.

kunchenguid#4033) * fix(bin): keep an escalated undelivered handoff wake retryable A remote backlog handoff holds its outbox until the backlog receipt and the receiver wake are both confirmed, and retries the wake under the same pending-reply correlation on every resume. When that wake's remote transport was lost, the correlation stayed undelivered in delivery_unknown and the watcher's next pending-reply tick escalated it. Both the reuse predicate and the known-undelivered reset refused an escalated record, so the resume refused to resend the wake forever and every later handoff to that mate jammed behind the outbox. Treat an escalated record with no confirmed delivery as the undelivered correlation it is: fm_pending_reply_corr_reusable accepts it for its own task and fm_pending_reply_reset_known_undelivered returns it to awaiting_report for the idempotent remote resend, while a delivered record is still never reset and a missed-report escalation keeps its meaning. The published delivery-unknown decision stays open until the record resolves, so a repeat loss neither re-notifies nor strands it. Reproduce the deadlock end to end in the remote handoff test (lost wake transport, watcher escalation, resume) and pin the predicate contract in the pending-reply suite; the fm-send fixture that pinned the refusal now uses a genuinely stale delivered escalation. * no-mistakes(review): Decouple durable outboxes from best-effort wake retries * no-mistakes(review): Align handoff documentation with durable receipt release policy * no-mistakes(review): Handle unrecordable wake state as dropped * no-mistakes(review): Prevent stale wake markers blocking handoffs * no-mistakes(review): Prevent stale delivered markers suppressing new wakes * no-mistakes(document): Clarify retry escalation decision lifecycle * no-mistakes(document): Document pending receiver wake retries
* docs: bound the mandatory captain address to the chat channel AGENTS.md's opening address rule said "address the user as captain at least once in every response" and never said what a response is. The artefact exclusion two lines below governed only the optional nautical seasoning, not the mandatory address. An agent that reads this file without being the first mate - a pipeline corrector agent running inside a copy of this repo - therefore read the obligation as applying everywhere and the exclusion as applying only to flavour, and opened its delivery message with "Captain,". That reading was correct. Patch the existing owner rather than adding a rule elsewhere: - bound the obligation to chat messages sent to the captain; - state the artefact exclusion once, explicitly binding every agent that reads this file whether or not it is the first mate, and naming commit messages, PR and issue descriptions, briefs, code and comments; - fold the seasoning under the same bound instead of carrying a second, narrower copy of the exclusion. The obligation itself is unchanged: the captain is still addressed in every chat message. AGENTS.md goes from 603 to 602 lines: the redundant "never send a response with zero direct address" clause and the duplicated seasoning exclusion pay for the new bound. The two cross-references that paraphrased the unbounded wording (bin/fm-parent-channel-lib.sh's header and docs/secondmate-parent-channel.md's problem statement) now match the owner; neither restates the rule. * fix(review): Limit address exclusions to artifacts while preserving public replies * fix(document): Consolidate captain address guidance

…nchenguid#4151) * ci: rebalance the portable parallel lanes on measured runner durations Both portable parallel lanes are capped at 10 minutes. Lane 1 was cancelled at that cap on every request raised on 2026-09-10 while lane 2 finished in about 3.5 minutes, so no request could go green. CONTRACT CLASS: RESTORE. The workflow already promises two duration-balanced lanes and the shard documentation already claims a measured wall; this re-establishes both against what the lanes now cost, and changes no lane count, no cap, and no scope of what runs. The counter-argument, so nobody has to take that on trust: two pieces here are genuinely new rather than restored, and either could be argued to make this a NEW-behavior change. `--list-scheduled` now ranks a parallel lane on measured durations where it previously handed every parallel script the serial default weight and returned an alphabetical order; and `--check-coverage` gains three reported fields. I classify the change RESTORE because both exist only to make the already-promised property checkable, but they are named here rather than folded into the restoration. === PART 1: THE TOTAL, AND HOW IT WAS OBTAINED === This section stands on its own. It establishes what the parallel set costs. It derives no packing; Part 2 does that, from this number. THE TOTAL: 828568 ms, about 13 min 49 s of serial work across the 24 scripts. Lane 1 held 624299 ms of it and lane 2 held 204269 ms, a 3.06:1 split. HOW IT WAS OBTAINED. The difficulty was that lane 1 had never finished, so its duration did not exist as a recorded figure anywhere and no timing artifact was expected for it. It turned out to be recoverable from the real lane without estimating, by two routes, across six CI runs on 2026-09-10 (34459949083, 34460760299, 34462530836, 34462758357, 34466966385, 34470382458): - Run 34462758357's lane-1 job finished its suite 18 s BEFORE the wall and uploaded a complete fm-test-timing-portable-parallel-1 artifact carrying all 11 scripts, FM_TEST_SUMMARY total=11 failed=0 duration_ms=598225. The upload step is if: always(), so the cancellation did not suppress it. This is one full, untruncated lane-1 measurement. - The five other lane-1 jobs were cancelled mid-suite, but each logs every script that had already finished as an FM_TEST_END duration_ms= marker. Those per-script records are complete measurements of completed scripts; only the script in flight at cancellation is lost, and it differs by run. Lane 2 completed in all six runs, so its scripts come from the six uploaded fm-test-timing-portable-parallel-2 artifacts. Every one of the 24 scripts therefore carries at least one untruncated measurement: 20 of them measured in all six runs, two in three or four runs, and two (fm-brief, fm-transition-lib, the tail of lane 1) in the single complete run. Each hint is the SLOWEST value that script reached, so the total is an upper envelope rather than an average. NO FIGURE IN IT IS DERIVED FROM A TRUNCATED LANE, and no lower bound was ever extrapolated into a total. THE ENVIRONMENT, AND WHETHER IT TRANSFERS. Every hint is a serial run of the real portable parallel lane on a GitHub ubuntu-latest runner, produced by the lane's own CI job. It transfers because it is not a proxy for the lane; it is the lane. Nothing in the total came from this machine or from any harness of mine. That mattered, and here is what it would have cost. A same-day macOS cross-check of the same scripts ran 1.7x to 5.0x slower with the ratio varying per script (fm-test-run 157420 ms against 92944 ms, fm-x-mode 67217 ms against 31870 ms, fm-composer-ghost 10521 ms against 2120 ms). Local timings therefore do not scale the lane, they REORDER it, so a packing derived from them would have balanced the wrong thing while looking clean. WHAT IT REPLACES, which is the root cause. The lanes were packed from the 2026-08-20 concurrent isolation proof: 24 candidates across four LOCAL workers. That record answers whether the candidates are isolation-safe, not how long a SERIAL CI lane runs, so it was structurally incapable of representing lane wall clock even when it was fresh. It was also never refreshed while the set grew about 3.2x. Both the wrong instrument and the staleness are fixed here: the hints now come from the lane itself and carry their run ids and date. === PART 2: THE SPLIT DERIVED FROM THAT TOTAL === Longest-processing-time assignment over those hints gives 414269 ms and 414299 ms, 30 ms apart, against 624299/204269 before. tests/fm-pi-primary-types.test.sh stays in lane 1 because that is the job which installs the Pi package, so ci.yml needs no step changes. === PART 3: DOES THE MARGIN SURVIVE MACHINE VARIANCE === Stated explicitly, because 6.90 min against a 10 min cap is 69% of cap before any variance is applied, and the cap covers the whole job rather than the suite. worst lane, script time 414299 ms 6.90 min job overhead, measured on the real lane ~18 s (see below) expected healthy job ~432300 ms 7.21 min x1.29 on the script time, plus overhead ~552400 ms 9.21 min cap 600000 ms 10.00 min room left after the multiplication ~47.6 s 7.9% of cap The 1.29x is the runner variance measured today on the SIBLING SERIAL lane, as supplied; it is not this lane's own figure. This lane family does have its own, and it is tighter: the six full lane-2 sums today span 192939 ms to 203451 ms, a spread of 1.054x. At that figure the worst lane lands near 7.58 min with about 2.4 min of room. I have used the LARGER, borrowed 1.29x for the verdict rather than the tighter one this lane actually shows, and note that the hints are already per-script maxima, so 1.29x on top is conservative twice over. THE MARGIN SURVIVES THE MULTIPLICATION, so this proceeds rather than stopping. The 18 s overhead is measured, not assumed: in run 34462758357 the lane-1 job ran 10 min 16 s against a 598.2 s suite, and lane 2 ran 3 min 21 s against a 192.9 s suite, a ~10 s difference that matches lane 1's extra Pi package install. The cap is unchanged, the lane count is unchanged, and nothing in the serial lane, its shard count, its guard or its hint table is touched. === PART 4: THE RECORDED FACT === The workflow comment no longer restates the shard wall as a literal, which is how "~1 min of serial sum" survived a 10x change without announcing it. It now points at bin/fm-test-run.sh --check-coverage, which prints parallel_max_ms, parallel_imbalance_ms and parallel_unhinted derived from the hint table, so the current number is computed on demand. The shard documentation carries the dated run ids, which route it was taken by, and the local cross-check that shows why local numbers are not admissible as hints. Two regressions pin what rotted: lane membership must be stored longest-measured-first, and the lanes must be fully hinted and packed within 5% of each other. Both were run against the old composition and both fail on it (420030 ms imbalance against a 624299 ms worst lane). The ordering assertion they replace named a specific script by hand and had itself gone stale. === PART 5: NAMED AND LEFT, OUTSIDE THIS REBALANCE === tests/fm-captain-hold-lifecycle.test.sh alone is 296481 ms, 36% of the whole set, so it is the floor of any two-lane split: no repacking can put a lane below it. After this rebalance the cap is about 1.45x the healthy lane where the sibling serial lane keeps roughly 2x. Nothing refuses a stale parallel hint the way PORTABLE_SERIAL_MAX_UNHINTED_PERCENT bounds the serial lane. parallel_unhinted is reported, not enforced, which is what let this drift for three weeks unnoticed. * fix(review): Restrict parallel scheduling hints to portable parallel lanes * fix(document): Clarify parallel lane scheduling and timing evidence
… PR (kunchenguid#4148) pr_for_task fell back to scraping the whole status log with tail -1, so any PR URL a worker ever mentioned in prose - including a scout citing someone else's PR - became the task's delivered PR in the parent-channel terminal report. Recorded meta pr= is now the only authoritative source, the fallback scrape accepts only a preferred terminal line in a mode's ready-signal shape (done: PR <url> or done: PR <url> checks green), and a scout never carries pr= at all.
…claims instead of counting a dead drop as started (kunchenguid#4212) * fix(procevent): stop a dead runner owning a source and reconcile reporting it The captain answered ten calls on a bearings board, the board accepted them, and nothing collected them. He had to answer all ten again in chat. A surface that presents as armed while being a dead drop is worse than one that visibly fails, because the answers looked recorded. Two independent defects, reproduced together in an isolated home where reconcile reports started=1 on every run while ownership never moves and no runner ever attaches. 1. reconcile counted a launch it never verified. detach_runner is fire-and-forget and discards the child's stderr, so a runner that died before it could claim was counted exactly like one that is listening. Launches are now confirmed - the source observed owned, or its runner record moved - before being reported as started; the rest are reported as failed= with a non-zero exit. The runner-record clause is what keeps a fast-completing source from being reported as a failure when it finished between two polls. One bounded window covers a whole cycle's launches, so a home full of broken sources costs the same wait as one. 2. A claim whose whole generation is provably gone could be refused forever. Reclaiming it ran cleanups over that dead generation's own leftovers, and any failure vetoed the claim - permanently, because none of those conditions clears on its own. Every one of those leftovers is keyed by the dead generation's claim token and a replacement always claims a fresh one, so none can collide with what replaces it. fm_procevent_claim_capture_reservation_reclaim_locked already said this for the reservation record; the staging file and the shape check on the registry directory recorded to hold it now take the same rule. Removing the claim record itself stays a hard precondition: two owners is the one outcome worse than none. Two smaller repairs to the same "registered is not listening" confusion: - `list` reported OWNER=none for a source nothing can claim. A reused PID whose process group survives reaches that state through the stale branch rather than the leaderless one, so it read as an idle source waiting to be started - the reassuring answer this surface gave while a board collected nothing. It now reports the orphaned state it shares. - reconcile relaunched into that same unclaimable state on every cycle, spawning a runner that could only die on the claim. docs/configuration.md already promised it preserves such a claim without starting a replacement; the code now does that and reports it as uncertain. This is NOT a third instance of today's two lock-identity defects (4e1bf9aa and its replayed predecessor). Those were wrong liveness predicates: a reused PID read as a live holder, then an exec'd holder read as dead. Here the predicate is right - the code correctly proves the owner dead and refuses the claim anyway, on a condition unrelated to liveness. Regression coverage, each failing on the parent commit for its own reason: - tests/fm-procevent.test.sh: a source that cannot start is reported as failed rather than started; a dead generation whose leftovers cannot be tidied no longer keeps owning its source (the parent reports a start while nothing ever runs); the existing reused-PID fixture now also asserts the orphaned listing and that no doomed relaunch is reported. - tests/fm-captain-hold-lifecycle.test.sh: a board answer reaches the keyed-answer intake through the runner end to end - durable capture, the wake, and the closed task carrying the captain's selection. This one passes on the parent, because that chain was never what broke. fm-procevent 100, fm-bearings-board 18, fm-captain-hold-lifecycle 50, fm-procevent-when 13 and fm-procevent-quota 18 pass; bin/fm-lint.sh and bin/fm-doc-audience-check.sh clean. tests/fm-extension-binding.test.sh has two failures identical on the parent commit (EACCES on package install in this sandbox) and unrelated to this change.

The new launch-failed delivery test assumed an already-surfaced key never wakes the watcher again. That is false: a fresh watcher legitimately re-surfaces any unacknowledged queue row through its downtime-recovery path ("check: rearm-resurface"), so the assertion failed whenever a re-arm landed between its two checks. The pipeline's own fix tolerated any wake lacking the repeated key's headline; this tightens it to exactly one tolerated reason, by its exact line, with a failure message that names the expectation so a reworded path reads as "the tolerated recovery path changed" rather than as a mystery - and so nobody restores the strict silence check. The positive assertion (a fresh-suffix key is delivered under its own headline) is unchanged. 2. seed_captured_procevent_result retired its source in the gap between the runner publishing its wake and releasing its claim, so retire read the exiting runner's ownership as uncertain and refused ("cannot confirm runner identity"). The fixture and retire path pre-date this branch; the confirm window returns reconcile closer to the moment of capture, which made the gap easier to hit. The fixture now waits, bounded, for the claim release the publish promises, with the reason at the wait.

…gistration (kunchenguid#4191) * fix(herdr): verify agent registrations at process level before trusting them Herdr keeps a Pi registration (`agent get` -> agent=pi, agent_status=idle) after the Pi process has exited to a plain shell whenever a nested interactive shell sits under the pane's top shell, which is the crew shape `treehouse get` leaves behind. The pane classifier trusted that registration alone, so `fm-control.sh <id> relaunch`, `fm-spawn.sh --relaunch`, and the crew-state recovery read all treated a shell-only pane as a live agent and refused recovery for as long as the record lived. The Herdr adapter now reads `pane process-info` plus the real process table through a shared harness-process classifier (bin/fm-agent-process-lib.sh, moved verbatim out of the tmux adapter so both backends mean the same thing by agent, shell, and other) before a registered agent counts as live. A registration over a shell-only pane is the new explicit `stale-agent` pane state, which the recovery-grade read maps to `dead`; husk detection, reclaim, presentation recovery, and session cleanup keep refusing it, so recovery reuses the pane and nothing gains close authority. A working record is verified the same way before the native busy verdict reports busy, so the recovery classifier never reports a shell-only pane as working. An unreadable process view reads unknown, trusting neither the registration nor its absence. Reproduced and measured on Herdr 0.9.0 with Pi 0.85.1 in an isolated lab; the new default-on live guard tests/fm-herdr-pi-stale-registration-live-e2e.test.sh exercises the real stale record, tests/fm-control-herdr-smoke.test.sh proves exit and relaunch through the control plane, and the portable suites pin the classifier over real processes.

…m epoch (kunchenguid#4221) The --claude guard's re-block budget charged the auto-arm ledger epoch, not the re-block: `budget_account_current_epoch` advanced the session count only when `state/.claude-autoarm-epoch` named a different generation than the previous accounting. The epoch advances only inside the auto-arm hook's generation claim, so a hook kept inert before that claim - a session lock held by a live harness outside its ancestry, a hook that never fires, or an identity or write failure ahead of `fm_autoarm_claim_next` - left the ledger frozen at its last outcome and the count frozen with it. Reproduced in a fixture: twelve consecutive Stops re-blocked with the count at 0 and the attended fail-open never fired, leaving only Claude's silent 8-block override, the blind end the bounded alarm exists to prevent. The budget now charges a re-block against an epoch the previous re-block already charged, while still charging each epoch at most once per Stop so the wait loop's repeated observations of one fresh terminal outcome and the same invocation's block decision cannot double count. The advancing-epoch progression is unchanged: three re-blocks, then one attended fail-open for a verified failure episode, and a frozen epoch now follows the same shape. Budget exhaustion without a verified failure still blocks, by the existing contract, and positive watcher recovery still clears the whole episode. Regression coverage drives the real auto-arm hook against a foreign session lock holder, asserts the ledger itself stays frozen, and fails before the fix in both the verified and unverified shapes; the existing unverified budget test now proves its budget actually ran out.
Merge kunchenguid/firstmate main (9074f9d) into tiago-peixoto/firstmate main. Patch 43 is dropped: upstream e0d269e (kunchenguid#4191) covers the nested-shell stale-registration case with process-level verification. Conflicts resolved toward upstream. Fork additions kept include account pins, Treehouse leases, AFK digest-file inject, and second-mate turn aging. Patch 45's stale-registration override is superseded by 4191; its idle-shell pane-death proof remains. Patch 47's digest-file delivery is kept as a fork addition.
Keep the fork's pause-age, lease isolation, relaunch cwd check, and secondmate active-turn contracts on top of upstream, and restore tests that the merge had smashed onto the wrong wording or glued invocations.
Batch spawn, process-event owner proofs, Herdr control, and daemon pause cleanup all lost a newline after a backslash, so later tokens were not arguments of the intended command.
Batch dispatch hands out two leased copies, Claude workers stay on the home pin, and a reused-pid retirement is allowed to fail without aborting the suite.

The upstream sync double-applied status_paused_until, dropped fm-quota-choose's account-pin source, left upstream's abort fixture beside the fork's leased copy, and replaced Herdr relaunch seating with a tmux-oriented cwd check that launches before the shell settles.
Captain ruling A: 4191's descendant walk is the single answer to whether a leftover Herdr registration is live. Remove the unwired fork function and the test that asserted an extra pane-terminal process keeps that registration live.

Replaces a cherry-pick of upstream e0d269e with a full sync of fork main onto current upstream main (9074f9d), and drops fork patch 43 in the same PR.
Captain decision 2026-09-11: option 1, then "yes, change to a full sync".
Coverage (patch 43 / nested-shell)
Patch 43 treated a Herdr registration as gone only when
foreground_pgid == pane shell_pid. Nested-shell is thetreehouse getcrew shape: after Pi exits, process-info reports the nested interactive shell as the foreground group, not the pane root, so 43 still read live.Upstream e0d269e (kunchenguid#4191, issue kunchenguid#4115) classifies that shape as
shell/stale-agent/ recoverydead. Evidence from a real-process nested treehouse fixture against e0d269e, and fromtests/fm-herdr-pi-stale-registration-live-e2e.test.shon Herdr 0.9.0 + Pi 0.85.1 before this rebuild.Coverage (patch 45 tty-membership extra)
Captain ruling 2026-09-12, verbatim "A": treat
tests/fm-control-herdr-agent-state.test.sh's extra-pane-terminal-process case as superseded by 4191, and retire the unwired tty-membership extra. Option B (rewiring that extra onto 4191shell) is declined.Invariant given up: an extra process on the pane terminal that is not a descendant of the pane shell no longer keeps a leftover Herdr registration live. 4191's
pane_agent_statedescendant walk is now the single answer to that question. The fork stops carrying a second opinion.The function
fm_backend_herdr_fork_pane_terminal_members_on_idle_pathis removed rather than left unwired. The fork assertion that an extra tty member keeps the registration live is removed rather than weakened. Remaining public-control cases in that script are 4191-shaped: idle nested tree already-stopped, live foreground, harness-named descendant outside the foreground, empty foreground over a real idle tree settling via the descendant walk.
