* 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. The skill, docs, launcher help, and tests describe the field form. * no-mistakes(review): Preserve AFK words and tighten safety refusals * no-mistakes(review): Preserve clause bytes and honor declared waits * no-mistakes(review): Harden deny-list and gate unreadable outcomes * no-mistakes(review): Demote never-set scan and clarify authority * no-mistakes(review): Gate return on unreadable held and status data * no-mistakes(review): Validate posture archives and enforce Pi detection * fix(afk): make the never-set a non-refusing flag and keep return fail-safe Per the captain's decision the never-set scan is a coarse best-effort flag, never a refusal and never the gate: a clause naming a listed concept is still recorded with a flag the read-back, announcement, and return brief show, and the scan matches listed terms exactly or with a plain inflection at punctuation-delimited token boundaries, so unrelated names such as ping-service or tokenize-worker are never flagged and joined compounds remain a documented miss. Authoritative never-set and forbidden-action enforcement is the supervision session's judgment at execution time in phase 4. A replacement copies the superseded record through a temporary name and renames it atomically so a failed copy leaves no partial archive, the record owner gains validate and flags subcommands, and the return keeps catch-up gated when a superseded archive cannot be read. * no-mistakes(review): Harden AFK record validation and return reconciliation * no-mistakes(review): Harden AFK record validation and simplify commands * no-mistakes(review): Harden mandate validation and retain missing records * no-mistakes(review): Refuse blank explicit mandate stops * no-mistakes(review): Recover restored posture epoch before return * no-mistakes(review): Prevent return brief status symlink reads * no-mistakes(document): Refresh AFK posture documentation * no-mistakes(ci): Fixed both CI failures: updated lint telemetry for the new fourth source directive, quoted the hyphenated fixture value, and removed unreachable test cleanup. Verified with tests/fm-lint.test.sh, targeted CI-mode ShellCheck, bin/fm-lint.sh, bash syntax checks, and git diff checks * no-mistakes(ci): Bound structured pause deadlines by FM_PAUSE_RESURFACE_SECS in watcher and daemon housekeeping, added distinct bounded-horizon reasons, regression coverage for near, passed, and wrong-year deadlines, and updated documentation. Verified targeted behavior tests, full daemon tests, ShellCheck source-following lint, syntax, and diff checks

* fix(remote): start the fm-remote Herdr agent through a login shell Launchd was exec-ing herdr directly, so the Aqua agent inherited a background session without login-keychain access. Start it via /bin/zsh -lc exec so panes keep login env and can refresh OAuth tokens after reboot. * fix(remote): start fm-remote Herdr via the account login shell Resolve UserShell from Directory Services and invoke it with separate -l and -c so bash, fish, and zsh all get login-keychain access. Fall back to SHELL, then /bin/zsh, then /bin/sh without failing the render. * no-mistakes(review): Fix launch-agent shell fallback resolution * no-mistakes(review): Preserve and escape Directory Services shell paths * no-mistakes(document): Document login-shell LaunchAgent behavior * no-mistakes(ci): Updated the trusted fm-remote-doctor SHA-256 identity in bin/fm-remote-entrypoint.sh. Verified with tests/fm-on.test.sh, tests/fm-remote-doctor.test.sh, bash syntax checks, and git diff --check * no-mistakes(ci): Resolved the login shell exactly once per doctor invocation and threaded it through plist rendering, installed/loaded contract validation, repair reporting, and post-repair checks. Added a regression test proving repeated repair remains healthy and performs no reload when a hypothetical second Directory Services lookup would differ. Updated the trusted doctor hash. Verified doctor, fm-on, remote-entrypoint, lint tests, ShellCheck, syntax, and diff checks * no-mistakes(ci): Made Darwin shell resolution hermetic with executable injection and a 2-second Directory Services timeout. Updated tests to inject shells by default, isolate dscl-specific cases, parse plists semantically, and verify stalled dscl fallback. Updated the trusted doctor hash. Doctor, fm-on, entrypoint, syntax, hash, and diff checks pass * no-mistakes(ci): Raised portable serial CI timeout from 20 to 30 minutes, refreshed the specified timing hints, added missing hints, and recomputed shard documentation. Verified coverage, runner behavior tests, workflow lint tests, shell syntax, requested timing maxima, and diff checks
…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.
…enguid#4242) * feat(herdr): attach a real foreground viewer so the live-client teardown cases can be driven PR kunchenguid#4131 gated the Herdr active-tab close refusal on a live foreground client instead of the persisted `.focused` pointer, but only its two detached scenarios could be validated live. Every pseudo-terminal the runner built started at a zero-sized window grid, so Herdr registered no foreground client and `terminal title clear` kept answering `no_foreground_client`, leaving the four attached-client scenarios untested. That was a harness limit, not a product one. Add `fm-herdr-lab.sh viewer start|stop <session>`, backed by `bin/fm-herdr-lab-viewer.py`. The launcher sets the pty window size on the master fd BEFORE the fork, so the TUI cannot read the grid until it is already non-zero, and scrubs the inherited `HERDR_*` variables so Herdr's nested-viewer refusal does not fire when the helper runs inside one of its own panes. Attach and detach are both confirmed against the session's own foreground-client reason rather than assumed from a signal. The viewer inherits the lab's isolation contract: it attaches only to a session carrying this lab's ownership tripwire, never to `default`, and it signals only the processes it recorded, so a client someone else attached is never touched. Teardown now refuses while an owned viewer is still attached. Turn the reproduction into the regression with `tests/fm-herdr-attached-viewer-live-e2e.test.sh`, which drives kunchenguid#4131's scenarios 3, 4, 5, and 7 live against real Herdr and asserts the close refusal fires. Scenarios 4 and 5 need a focus change at one exact product boundary, so a PATH shim performs the real `tab focus` when the close helper issues its planning `pane get`. Removing either half of the recipe from the launcher makes the guard fail with the same `no_foreground_client` symptom kunchenguid#4131 reported. * test(herdr): fail loudly when an attached-viewer fixture cannot be created The fixture helpers run inside command substitutions, where fail() exits only the subshell and leaves the script running with empty ids.

… in auto mode (kunchenguid#4239) * feat(spawn): add config/claude-permission-mode to launch Claude workers in auto mode Every Claude worker launched with --dangerously-skip-permissions, and a captain who refuses bypass mode had no way to select Claude Code's classifier-reviewed auto mode instead. A new one-token local config, config/claude-permission-mode, selects the permission flag for every Claude launch: absent or `bypass` keeps today's launch byte-for-byte, `auto` swaps in --permission-mode auto, and any other value refuses the spawn before any endpoint, worktree, or record exists and names the accepted values. fm-spawn resolves the file on every spawn and relaunch, threads the flag through the Claude launch template for crewmates, scouts, and secondmates alike, and records claude_permission_mode=auto in the task meta only under auto so the default meta stays unchanged; a relaunch re-resolves rather than preserving the line. The file is a captain-wide safety preference, so it joins the inherited local material pushed into secondmate homes. The Claude adapter reference records the verified auto launch shape on Claude Code 2.1.269 and that it never meets the once-per-machine bypass confirmation dialog; docs/configuration.md owns the schema. * no-mistakes(review): drop unread claude_permission_mode meta line and its assertions
… untouched (kunchenguid#4243) * fix(teardown): refuse to return a Treehouse pool slot reassigned to another task A pool slot is reused across tasks, so a finished task's worktree= line can name a slot a different, live task now holds. Teardown already refused when a second task record named the same live path, but that scan cannot prove the record it is tearing down is the current owner: the task that took the slot next may leave no record the scan can reach - its own worker may have exited and its record been cleaned up, or it may live in a home this machine does not register. Teardown then killed every process under the path, hard-reset it and returned it, and its unlanded-work refusal never fired because it was inspecting a directory that no longer belonged to the task being torn down (observed 2026-09-07). Treehouse's own state file cannot answer the ownership question. It records a slot's owner as a live process lease (owner_pid plus owner_started_at, with `treehouse status` reporting in-use from the processes actually running under the path), which names no task and is released by the very event that makes a record stale - the worker exiting. An unleased slot therefore reads identical whether it is still this task's or has since been handed on, and a slot whose new holder has also exited but left uncommitted work reads as free. So the identity source is Firstmate's own claim, not Treehouse's lease. fm-spawn writes that claim - the task id - into the slot at the moment it takes it, under the same project lock that allocates the slot, and fm-teardown drops it only after the slot is genuinely returned. It lives at <pool>/<slot>/.fm-slot-owner, a sibling of the repo checkout rather than a file inside it, so claiming a slot can never dirty the copy the landed-work checks inspect. A claim naming another task, or one that cannot be read, refuses; --force does not lift either refusal, because --force authorizes discarding this task's unlanded work, never another task's live work. A slot that cannot be claimed refuses the spawn instead. An absent claim proceeds on exactly the record-scan protection it had before: slots taken before claims existed, and slots already returned, carry none, and refusing those would strand every task in flight across this change on no evidence at all. The refusal is deliberately all-or-nothing rather than partially completing the task's own cleanup. state/<id>.meta is the only durable record naming the worktree and endpoint, so removing it would destroy the evidence needed to reconcile which record is wrong, and its removal is one step with the backlog transition. Nothing is stranded: clearing the stale worktree= line leaves a record with no slot to release, which then tears down normally, and the refusal names that remedy. Repairing the previous claimant's stale worktree= line at spawn time is left for separate work. It would have the new owner write another task's record - the same class of cross-task mutation this bug is - and would need that record's own meta lock; with the claim in place teardown refuses on evidence rather than depending on the stale pointer having been scrubbed. For the same reason the relaunch path writes no claim: it holds no allocation lock, and a record whose worktree= is already stale would stamp the wrong task's claim onto a live sibling's slot. The regression reproduces the reuse sequence with only one discoverable record, including a clean, fully landed ship copy torn down without --force - the shape of the real incident, which the previous code returned to the pool - and fails against the previous code; the existing two-record, cross-home, own-slot and no-claim cases still pass unchanged. This builds ON upstream b028e8b (kunchenguid#3837), which is already in this branch's base (origin/main 40c50ea) and owns the record-exclusivity scan.

…nguid#4247) The reviewer treats Captain's intent as acceptance criteria, so a widened ask there drives over-built work; the spec should carry only what the ask requires.
* feat(bearings): name the Underway rows and order Charted Next newest filed first The fleet board's Underway rows led with the run status alone, so a scan told the captain where a pipeline stood but never which task the row was, and Charted Next rendered in backlog order rather than by when work was filed. The snapshot now projects the durable task name onto every in_flight row - from this home's backlog title, and from a secondmate home's own ledger for an active child - and the durable filed date onto every gate. The board's Underway row leads with that name and keeps the run status on its second line, and Charted Next renders newest filed first, with rows carrying no comparable date keeping their payload order after every dated row. The payload validator requires an explicit name marker on every Underway row and refuses a filed value that is not an ISO date, so the board can never sort on garbage or invent a label. * no-mistakes(review): Fix Bearings labels, bounds, and filed validation * no-mistakes(review): Fix Bearings identifiers and eligible queue bounds * no-mistakes(document): Document Bearings labels and newest-first bounds * no-mistakes(ci): Updated the stock macOS Bash CI expectation from 56 to 59 Bearings tests. Verified the suite under /bin/bash 3.2: all 59 tests pass. git diff --check also passes
…nchenguid#4248) * fix(bearings): report the away-return catch-up instead of refusing A captain returning from away and asking for bearings got zero bytes and an error: fm-bearings-snapshot.sh ran the away-return guard with `|| exit $?` before reading any fleet state, so the mere existence of the catch-up gate killed every bearings mode (and /ahoy with them). Bearings now consults that guard rather than obeying it. fm-afk-return.sh separates its two refusal branches by exit status, so an ACTIVE away window still refuses exactly as before - the right answer there is to run the return first - while return catch-up (exit 4) lets collection and projection proceed and is disclosed as one action-free `(return-catchup)` gate row, following the existing `(main-inventory)` precedent. It stays out of decisions_open: these blockers are firstmate-actionable, not the captain's own call, and the per-task blockers already project as their own Underway rows. The guard's refusal text also stops promising a blocker list it cannot produce: a gate retained for a lifecycle reason alone now names that retention reason, and bearings carries the same reason in the gate row's title. Reporting is not ordinary work. AGENTS.md already scopes the return hold to work rather than reporting, so only the /afk and bearings skills needed the correction. * no-mistakes(document): Refresh away-return Bearings verification * no-mistakes(review): Reserve catch-up gate outside Bearings truncation * no-mistakes(review): Preserve filed dates in catch-up gate output * no-mistakes(document): Document reserved catch-up gate projection
…forked code-root copy (kunchenguid#4223) * fix(backlog): address the home's backlog from any directory and detect a forked code-root copy A home outside the code root forks its queue: the tracked .tasks.toml names data/backlog.md relative to tasks-axi's working directory, so a bare tasks-axi call from the code root writes the code root's data/ while session start, spawn, and teardown use $FM_HOME/data. Linking the code-root copy into the home does not hold, because tasks-axi 0.2.4 writes by renaming a temp file over its target and rename(2) replaces a symlink: add, start, hold, and done from the code root each turn the link back into a regular file. The archive path is resolved against the working directory too, even with --file. bin/fm-tasks-axi.sh runs tasks-axi against this home's backlog from any directory, using the lifecycle transitions' existing addressing (run from the data directory's parent, pin <data>/backlog.md through TASKS_AXI_FILE). It keeps relative --to/--*-file arguments meaning the caller's paths, and refuses a caller --file, an unresolvable home, and a symlinked home backlog. The fm-send hold lookup, fm-public-followup, and the fm-decision-hold shim, which relied on cwd discovery, now go through it with an explicit FM_HOME and a cleared data override, so they keep addressing exactly $FM_HOME/data and an ambient TASKS_AXI_FILE cannot divert them; every agent-facing backlog command names it instead of bare tasks-axi. Bootstrap gains a detect-only BACKLOG_RECONCILE check, also run read-only: when the home's data directory is not the code root's, a code-root data/backlog.md or data/done-archive.md that is not the home's own file is reported as a fork, with the merge procedure in bootstrap-diagnostics. * test(teardown): assert the completion hint names bin/fm-tasks-axi.sh ready The completion hint now points at the home-addressed command instead of a bare tasks-axi call, so the dependency-cleared follow-up assertion checks for that command. * no-mistakes(test): clear ambient tasks-axi env in tests/lib.sh * no-mistakes(document): drop bare tasks-axi example from cd-guard doc * no-mistakes(lint): replace ls -A decoy listing with find for SC2012 * no-mistakes: apply CI fixes * revert: keep the compliance gate unchanged; the synchronize race is filed separately

Intent
Renew this firstmate fork against upstream main by merging the 87 upstream commits into the fork's line of work, resolving the 12 conflicting files so that upstream's newer away-mode posture-record model is adopted while the fork's own supervisor self-hosting refusal and its skipped-wake-drain return gate are preserved, recomputing the test shard weights from the merged runner state, and making the away-mode launch test suite hermetic against the ambient terminal pane so it passes both locally and in CI.

Testing
I stood the away-mode tooling up the way a captain runs it — real tmux sessions, real posture records, real daemon terminals — and drove the whole entry-to-return lifecycle plus three adversarial paths (in-pane self-hosting on herdr, daemon entry with no confirmed record, and a refresh after the captain moved panes). All refusals fired with actionable text and left away-mode state exactly as they found it. The skipped-wake-drain return gate was driven against a real drain with the queue lock held, producing exit 3, a persisted catch-up gate and lifecycle evidence, and clearing only on retry; deleting the fork's three guard lines makes the restored regression test fail, so that test genuinely reproduces the regression. Hermeticity was proven by running the launch suite in three ambient environments (none, live tmux pane, herdr pane variables) with identical 104-test green results, and by a control showing the suite loses three tests without the unset line. The reshard was exercised through the runner CLI itself: the coverage guard reports a total, disjoint partition, and the runner's own regression suite — which enforces both lanes fully hinted and packed within 5% — finished green. Evidence is CLI transcripts rather than screenshots because every surface here is a shell tool with no rendered UI; the doc and skill prose restored in this change has no runtime surface to capture. The only thing I could not finish is the full green execution of both CI parallel lanes locally — they were still running when this step reported, with 180 assertions green and nothing failing, and remote CI owns that broad regression anyway.

.agents/skills/afk/SKILL.md:45- Intent requires that "the fork's own supervisor self-hosting refusal ... [be] preserved". The code half is preserved (bin/fm-afk-launch.sh:807, bin/fm-afk-start.sh:162), but the prose half was resolved to upstream's harness-first wording and the fork's backend-first caveat was dropped from both .agents/skills/afk/SKILL.md:45-48 and docs/herdr-backend.md's "Away-mode supervisor support" section. Concrete sequence: a captain running the claude harness inside a herdr pane follows step 4 as now written ("Harness WITH a native in-pane tracked-background tool (claude's background bash...): run bin/fm-afk-launch.sh start-native"); discover_supervisor_backend returns herdr, discover_own_pane_target equals discover_supervisor_target, supervisor_pane_is_self_hosted returns 0, and the launcher refuses with exit 1 — away mode does not start until the captain departs from the documented procedure. bin/fm-afk-launch.sh:791-794 states this rule's two halves "must agree" and cites the 2026-08-26 incident caused by exactly this divergence. The refusal message does name the remedy, so the captain is not stranded. Remedy: restore a backend-qualified clause to step 4 (herdr-backed captain pane usesstart, notstart-native) and to docs/herdr-backend.md; that is a deliberate conflict-resolution choice, so it needs the author's call.tests/fm-afk-return.test.sh:1- The conflict in tests/fm-afk-return.test.sh was resolved by taking upstream's file verbatim (git diff a27646c HEAD on that path is empty), which dropped the fork-only test_skipped_wake_drain_keeps_catchup_gated together with its install_real_drain and seed_durable_wake fixtures. The behavior it guarded is still in the merged fork (bin/fm-afk-return.sh:584-586: aWAKE DRAIN SKIPPED:line sets lifecycle_ok=0 and appends lifecycle evidence so the return gate stays closed), and intent names that gate as REQUIRED to preserve. Nothing in the merged tree asserts it: grep over tests/ findsWAKE DRAIN SKIPPEDonly at tests/fm-wake-queue.test.sh:1735, which asserts fm-wake-drain.sh prints the line and exits 0 — it never runs fm-afk-return.sh. Concrete regression that now ships silently: delete lines 584-586, the queue lock is held by a live pid at return time, fm-wake-drain.sh exits 0 having drained nothing, return begin reports catch-up complete, and the whole suite still passes. Remedy is restoring the dropped test and its two fixtures from 578fc06 (they are fork code lost in the resolution, not new machinery).🔧 Fix applied.
2 issues (1 warning, 1 info) still open:
docs/fm-test-portable-shards.md:43- Lines 43-44 are a fork paragraph that survived the merge (upstream a27646c dropped it) and now contradicts the same document's recomputed provenance and the workflow. It states the parallel lanes were measured at "141202 ms and 139195 ms" in run 33100473041 and concludes "Both lanes stay far inside the 10-minute cap, so refreshing the partition is balance work ... not a capacity risk." Both claims are now false in the merged state: lines 12-14 of this same file record that shard 1 "was cancelled at its job cap in five of the six" 2026-09-10 runs, and .github/workflows/ci.yml:50-51 says "the previous lane 1 reached it; the former '~1 min of serial sum' estimate no longer applies." The recomputed hints in bin/fm-test-run.sh now sum to 414269 ms and 417163 ms per lane - roughly triple the quoted figures - so a reader refreshing the partition per this doc is told there is no capacity concern for the exact lane that CI cancelled at its cap. Intent requires "recomputing the test shard weights from the merged runner state"; the numbers and the code were recomputed, this paragraph was not. Remedy is deleting lines 43-44 (the adjacent paragraph at 34-41 already states hints are packing inputs, not runtimes); no new machinery is needed.docs/herdr-backend.md:317- The merge resolved the "Away-mode supervisor support" section (docs/herdr-backend.md:317+) and the away skill (.agents/skills/afk/SKILL.md) to upstream's shorter model, which dropped the fork's prose describing the launcher's refresh-time delivery-path verification - while that fork code survives and can still refuse. bin/fm-afk-launch.sh:611-695 (fm_afk_launch_verify_delivery_path) runs only on a refresh and can exit with "the running daemon's delivery pane ..." / "did not record which pane it delivers into, so this refresh cannot verify" and instruct a stop-then-fresh-entry; tests/fm-afk-launch.test.sh asserts each of those branches. Grepping docs/ and .agents/ finds no surviving description of that check, so a captain who re-runs /afk while away and hits the refusal has the error text but no documented model for it. This is a deliberate conflict-resolution choice and is outside the two behaviors the intent names as REQUIRED to preserve, so it is the author's call whether to restore a short paragraph or accept upstream's wording.🔧 Fix applied.

The gap exists identically at base 578fc06 and at upstream a27646c, so this merge neither created nor widened it; I added only the three files this change itself introduced. Closing the rest is a bulk inventory pass over unrelated scripts, which the scope rules exclude from this phase. Worth a dedicated follow-up that either fills the missing rows or narrows the document's opening scope sentence to the entrypoints it actually curates, so readers stop treating an absent row as evidence a script does not exist.✅ **Lint** - passed
