Why: Card registration or transcript persistence failures must not orphan paid work or discard a generated result, and ordinary questions must not match summary requests.
Evidence: Registration/promote and message-insert fault regressions, implicit-question checks and scoped race tests pass; legacy projection caching preserves historical times.
Impact: Fail before execution when tracking is unavailable, preserve full public final text with an explicit failure state, cache legacy projections once, and repair the concurrent material test fixture.
Refs: feature/workbench-flow-completion independent review closure
Why: A failed completion-card write could strand durable results, and routed messages could discard a selected result reference.
Evidence: Regressions cover missing projection recovery without execution, unavailable saved runs, pre-child dispatch failures and existing work/authorization paths.
Impact: Reconcile terminal saved results on authorized reads, keep known failures visible, and route explicit references through the conversation context.
Refs: feature/workbench-flow-completion review reliability and API findings
Why: A fresh question referencing an earlier result could be mistaken for a duplicate background request.
Evidence: The new English-summary reference regression failed with the old receipt branch and passes with the explicit-reference distinction.
Impact: Deduplicate inferred pending choices while allowing explicit new requests to use the saved result.
Refs: feature/workbench-flow-completion review P1
Why: Background notice runs blocked chat, truncated results, and duplicated deliverable execution.
Evidence: Focused run manager, card, server, recovery and race regressions pass locally; final combination checks are tracked in Dev.
Impact: Persist full results and optional choices, fence dispatch by run identity, retain public child process, and repair legacy projections without a schema change. No paid model trial was run.
Refs: feature/workbench-flow-completion
Why: land current-turn image routing on backend main.
Evidence: vet-and-test success on 629c2502ad02e33708fe7ee39afd4b45d1b25483; parent pin 6532fad remains an ancestor.
Impact: vision routing is on backend main.
Refs: #203
Why: the backend pull request cannot merge while its head is behind main.
Evidence: origin/main 9fd0793 is one commit ahead of the pin already contained in 6532fad.
Impact: the parent gitlink stays on 6532fad, which remains reachable.
Refs: #203
Why: the parent sync needs a backend commit that contains both vision routing and the current main pin.
Evidence: incoming pin 80bb123 is an ancestor of origin/main; merge keeps cfde38d.
Impact: backend gitlink can record one resolved commit.
Refs: feature/four-model-vision
Why: waitRunTerminal can return before run.completed is stored, so that event may land between the appended tool output and the child events.
Evidence: CI run 3274 failed twice on TestRunProcessEventsAreOrderedAndBoundToConversation with run.completed ahead of the child progress and result. Local go test of that test passed after this assertion.
Impact: the test still rejects leaked child tool output and still requires child progress then result, in that order.

Why: A second broken pptx passed the shipped gate despite being unopenable
in Office: parts were all present but presentation.xml and the master used
an undeclared xmlns:r prefix, sldIdLst listed 12 slides while the rels file
wired only one, and [Content_Types].xml overrode only slide1. The prior
part-existence checks cannot see any of these; the generating instance also
predated the first gate deployment.
Evidence: The upgraded gate rejects the real broken file (undeclared
xmlns:r) and 16 synthetic break cases spanning both incident classes, while
passing the manually repaired package and kit output; python round-trip on
the repaired deck extracts all 12 slides. Full-suite receipt follows on the
task card.
Impact: register_artifact now enforces strict namespace declarations across
every XML part, bidirectional consistency between id-lists and relationships
(presentation and masters), and per-part content-type overrides. Error
messages name the broken reference. run_python prompt v3 adds that failed
kit attempts must retry through the kit, never fall back to hand assembly.
Refs: Dev task feature/pptx-gate-reference-integrity
Why: Uploaded images never reached the model, so a text-only chat model could be asked to read a picture it cannot see.
Evidence: go test ./internal/... passed locally before this commit. Image-link rejection is covered by vision package tests.
Impact: Current-turn attachments and fetched image links become image input. History keeps a text placeholder. Image turns swap to the configured vision model when the chat model is not in the capable list, and fallbacks are filtered the same way.

Why: RDM's sandbox policy must run after HostOptions are merged and be able to refuse startup when bwrap is missing.
Evidence: go test ./pkg/extension/ ./cmd/agent-system/ -count=1 passed on this tree (SELF).
Impact: InProc.Prepare and PrepareCompiled; serve applies plugin rewrites before app.Run.
Refs: feature/svc-plugin-host-options
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Why: a composed base binary must apply plugin startup defaults and plugin-owned flags without a downstream main.
Evidence: go test ./pkg/extension/ ./cmd/agent-system/ -count=1 (SELF, this commit's parent tree plus these files).
Impact: blank-imported plugins can set HostOptions and a CLI hook; GET /api/registry gains a compiled id list; explicit serve flags still win.
Refs: plugins/registry compose deploy
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Why: The previous endpoint regression used an SQLite-only server fixture even when isolated PostgreSQL was configured.
Evidence: The revised HTTP test passed with dialect=sqlite and dialect=postgres; it creates data through one Store and reads through another before and after disabling the local account.
Impact: U3 effective-state checks for the new process replay route now have a direct two-store PostgreSQL regression without changing production behavior.
Refs: IAM U3 affected Stage 7 review; Backend PR #198
Why: Merging run-process visibility introduced a read endpoint that bypassed U3 effective-account checks when authentication was off.
Evidence: A new regression first returned HTTP 200 for disabled local; with entry and final response checks it passed, and the event pagination test passed ten repeated runs after anchoring to its appended event sequence.
Impact: Explicitly disabled local accounts cannot read stored process events; missing implicit local remains compatible.
Refs: IAM U3 Stage 8 integration review; Backend PR #198; main PR #199
Why: The SSE test canceled after 200 ms while filtering more than a thousand private events; CI and race builds stopped before the shared frame.
Evidence: The failure reproduced under go test -race with HTTP 200, no private leak, and no shared frame; after a two-second deadline the race case passed three times and the Server package passed.
Impact: The privacy assertion is unchanged and now reports which condition failed, while slower replay still reaches the event under test.
Refs: IAM U3 Stage 7; Backend PR #198; CI run 3170
Why: Spawned agent progress disappeared when the parent reply settled.
Evidence: go test ./...; run-event route test covers child status and raw-output exclusion.
Impact: Return child progress and result events in parent history without exposing child raw tool streams.
Refs: Agent-System-Dev feature/work-companion-visibility UI1
Why: The user asked to bring proven external skills for document
beautification and content enrichment into the system. Surveying GitHub,
skills.sh and ClawHub found the popular document-editing skills are
proprietary (Anthropic document skills forbid extraction and derivatives),
so the compliant picks are the permissively-licensed leaders: frontend-
design (Apache-2.0, 985.7K installs), canvas-design (Apache-2.0, official
example skill with bundled OFL fonts), copywriting and copy-editing (MIT,
54.7K stars).
Evidence: Seed-time open-spec validation passes for all four vendored
SKILL.md frontmatters (dogfooded by the existing seed tests); anthropic
skill bodies verified byte-identical to the pinned upstream snapshot
(dbd4588f); marketing skills trimmed only of unvendored sibling pointers
and eval artifacts, recorded in per-skill UPSTREAM.md with pinned SHAs;
new provenance test guards license files.
Impact: Built-in skills grow from four to eight and the binary embeds
about 6 MB of font assets; prompt library base.deliverables v9 exposes
the entry points. House-style stays authoritative for Office themes; the
new skills add visual direction, poster/infographic rendering and
copywriting craft. Seeds upgrade existing deployments on next start.
Refs: Dev task feature/vendor-popular-skills
Why: The U3 migration must replace the target schema seed with the source directory revision and cursor key.
Evidence: Isolated PostgreSQL TestMigrateEndToEndAndIdempotent passed with field-by-field source and target comparison.
Impact: Migration regressions that lose directory cursor identity now fail the existing end-to-end test.
Refs: IAM U3 Stage 7; docs/proposals/2026-10-14-iam-u3-account-contract-and-plan.md §10
Why: Completed replies currently drop access to streamed thinking and tool output.
Evidence: go test ./...; isolated run-event pagination and conversation binding test.
Impact: Add owner-scoped paginated event reading for a single conversation run.
Refs: Agent-System-Dev feature/work-companion-visibility UI1
Why: U3 seeds a directory revision in every new target database, which made an empty PostgreSQL target look occupied to the migration guard.
Evidence: Isolated PostgreSQL cmd/storage-migrate integration tests passed after the previously failing cases reproduced the error.
Impact: A fresh target remains eligible for migration; existing business rows and foreign migration identities still block it.
Refs: IAM U3 Stage 7; docs/proposals/2026-10-14-iam-u3-account-contract-and-plan.md §10
Why: RDM delegated rename rebuilt the creator Host and could commit a Backend project rename after the delegated operator was disabled.
Evidence: SQLite and isolated PostgreSQL targeted checks cover operator/creator disable order, two processes, sorted locks, auth-off local compatibility, and HTTP/command Host wiring; exact committed-head replay remains pending.
Impact: Adds a request-bound single-project extension capability and checks operator plus creator in the final Backend transaction. Global ScopedHost cannot derive delegated authority; RDM cross-database atomicity remains outside the promise.
Refs: Approved Documents delegated-projection amendment 5783940, U3 A1-A4 candidate adcd8fe, Dev feature/iam-u3-account-directory-recovery.
Why: The backfill contract test used a fake PK-magic docx as its fixture;
the new registration structural gate correctly refuses that shape, so the
contract was no longer exercised.
Evidence: The three affected runmgr tests pass locally with -count=1;
the full combined suite receipt follows on the task card.
Impact: Test fixture only; the gate behavior under test is unchanged.
Refs: Dev task feature/pptx-register-structural-gate
Why: An agent bypassing the housestyle kit hand-assembled OOXML with
zipfile; the resulting pptx lacked masters, theme and docProps. Text
extraction succeeded and every existing check passed, so a package that
Office refuses to open reached the user as a deliverable.
Evidence: Focused Go suite covers a valid minimal pptx, the incident-
shaped package, nine chain-break variants and register-level integration;
the housestyle python suite adds BrokenPptxTests for masterless, kit-made
and unopenable files. Full combined suite receipt follows on the task
card before review.
Impact: register_artifact now runs a pure-Go OPC structural check for
docx/xlsx/pptx and refuses broken packages with a kit rebuild hint;
lint_pptx gains structure-broken assertions (master/theme/layout chain,
open-failure fallback) that template mode cannot downgrade; prompts
forbid hand-assembled OOXML and specify the missing-library fallback.
Refs: Dev task feature/pptx-register-structural-gate
Why: Account disable could be followed by late Backend business writes, API key creation could implicitly create users, account bootstrap locks could invert, and directory cursors were process-local or leaked out-of-scope changes.
Evidence: Local go test ./... and isolated PostgreSQL package suites passed on the staged candidate; exact committed-head SELF replay and stage 6 human review remain pending.
Impact: Adds final account transactions and external-effect checks across HTTP, Host, Bus and run manager; tightens API key issuance and persists versioned cursor signing. Delegated RDM rename still needs the separately proposed real-operator contract, so A1 and stage 6 are not complete.
Refs: Documents U3 r1, approved A1-A4 amendment fb3a821, pending delegated-projection amendment 5783940, Dev feature/iam-u3-account-directory-recovery.
Why: U7 account audit and identity gates advanced on main while U3 account initialization and recovery were in progress.
Evidence: SELF merge-tree checks passed with go test ./... and isolated PostgreSQL store/server tests; exact-head replay follows.
Impact: Preserve pending-account grants, proof-linked recovery, protected CLI delivery, account serialization, and atomic audit.
Refs: IAM U3 r1; U7 PR #185
Why: Historical full sessions could reach self-profile actions, and a lost recovery response had no safe idempotent retry contract.
Evidence: SELF receipts /tmp/iam-u3-full-password-profile.json, /tmp/iam-u3-recovery-idempotent-sqlite.json, /tmp/iam-u3-recovery-idempotent-pg.json, /tmp/iam-u3-account-sse-pass.json, /tmp/iam-u3-backend-idempotent-all.json, and /tmp/iam-u3-backend-idempotent-pg.json.
Impact: Profile actions require a password-authenticated full cookie; duplicate owner confirmation or rotation returns status without plaintext; an active SSE stream stops before its next business frame after disable.
Refs: IAM U3 r1 stages 4-5; Dev feature/iam-u3-account-directory-recovery
Why: A disable could commit after the run manager checked account state but before its final business message was stored.
Evidence: SELF receipts /tmp/iam-u3-final-settle-sqlite.json, /tmp/iam-u3-final-settle-pg.json, /tmp/iam-u3-backend-settle-all.json, /tmp/iam-u3-backend-settle-pg.json, and /tmp/iam-u3-http-two-instance-pg.json.
Impact: The final run transaction locks and rechecks the account, rejects post-disable business output, and permits only an account-denial failure record. Auth-off implicit local ownership remains explicit.
Refs: IAM U3 r1 stages 4-5; Dev feature/iam-u3-account-directory-recovery
Why: Administrator-issued password and login-key paths could take over target accounts, while old credentials and plugin handles ignored current account state.
Evidence: SELF receipts /tmp/iam-u3-backend-all-replay.json, /tmp/iam-u3-backend-final-pg-core.json, /tmp/iam-u3-backend-build.json, and focused HTTP/concurrency receipts in /tmp/iam-u3-*.json.
Impact: Adds trusted pending-account initialization and reissue, preexisting owner-session proof, proposal/rotation/grant transactions, server-side admin search, current Host guards, and legacy HTTP/CLI closure. Production cutover and downstream pins remain pending.
Refs: IAM U3 r1 stages 4-5; Dev feature/iam-u3-account-directory-recovery
Why: Concurrent password changes, recovery key reissue, and session admission could accept retired credentials or omit rejected audits.
Evidence: Local Go vet and full tests passed; real PostgreSQL store suite, deterministic interleavings, and two-process contention passed with SELF receipts.
Impact: Account writes and session admission serialize per owner; stale sessions fail closed; checked rejections carry an audit row.
Refs: Agent-System-Dev #486; Agent-System-Backend #185; merge queue Issue #518
Why: API-key issuance shares the account maintenance no-create and credential-output contract; the old CLI printed its key and lacked --out-file.
Evidence: The new subprocess test failed before the flag existed, then passed for private output and pre-mutation collision refusal; current go vet and all Go tests pass.
Impact: apikey create accepts protected --dsn-file and --out-file, preserves stdout default, and never overwrites an existing destination.
Refs: Backend PR #185; Dev PR #486; U7 KTD14
Why: The safe open requirement covers user, apikey and identity verify, including default CLI paths.
Evidence: All three paths use private missing directories; previous full Go and PostgreSQL receipts cover the implementation, with a focused recheck before push.
Impact: Test coverage only; no runtime behavior or migration changes.
Refs: Backend PR #185; Dev PR #486
Why: Deliver U7 account transactions and audit without losing main auth_version, restricted-session, project or migration behavior.
Evidence: SELF go vet and all Go tests passed; isolated PostgreSQL store tests, 20 repeated two-process admission rounds, and real SIGTERM/SIGKILL persistence passed. Original failures remain in receipts; exact-head CI and independent Review follow.
Impact: Adds schema v31, noncreating account CLI opens, preflight credential output, same-transaction audit, and bootstrap admission guards. No live database touched.
Refs: Backend PR #185; Dev PR #486; original U7 r2 account specification; 2026-10-14 Root takeover
Why: The old account lister exposed a global, always-valid directory without a domain locator or field authorization.
Evidence: SELF receipts /tmp/iam-u3-u3-backend-sqlite.json and /tmp/iam-u3-u3-backend-pg.json.
Impact: Adds versioned optional query and exact lookup, trusted RDM scope registration, visible-field cursor binding, and restricts legacy EXT-19 to effective system administrators. RDM consumption remains a separate U3-5 unit.
Refs: IAM U3 r1 stages 4-5; Dev feature/iam-u3-account-directory-recovery
Why: Disabled accounts and mixed credentials could continue to authenticate, while web creation accepted passwords and administrator privileges.
Evidence: SELF receipts /tmp/iam-u3-u2-store-sqlite-green.json, /tmp/iam-u3-u2-store-pg-regression.json, and /tmp/iam-u3-u2-server-sqlite-green.json.
Impact: Adds versioned enable/disable, revokes existing handles, protects the last operable manager, and exposes pending-account/profile APIs. Recovery proposal and legacy-entry closure remain in U3-4.
