feat: add first-class stacked PR support to author workflow (#484)
Normal author work is unchanged: gitea_lock_issue still requires the worktree
to be base-equivalent to master/main/dev, and gitea_create_pr still targets a
normal base branch. A *stacked* PR (based on another unmerged PR's branch) is a
new explicit, proof-backed path — it never bypasses the issue lock.
- stacked_pr_support.py: pure policy. Approve a non-master base only when it is
declared AND owned by a live OPEN PR whose number matches; reject arbitrary,
mismatched, or stale (merged/closed) branches; require the PR body to document
the stack (base branch, stacked-on PR, merge ordering).
- issue_lock_worktree.py: read_worktree_git_state / _find_matching_base_ref gain
an opt-in extra_bases arg so an approved stacked base can anchor
base-equivalence in addition to master/main/dev (empty by default = unchanged).
- gitea_mcp_server.py:
- gitea_lock_issue gains stacked_base_branch + stacked_base_pr. When declared,
it verifies the open PR owns the branch, anchors base-equivalence to it, and
records approved_stacked_base = {branch, pr_number, verified_open} on the lock.
- gitea_create_pr validates a non-master base against the lock's approved
stacked base, re-checks the dependency PR is still open, and enforces the
stacked-PR body fields. Master-based path untouched.
- Docs: llm-workflow-runbooks.md and work-issue.md document when stacked PRs are
allowed and the required PR-body wording.
Tests: test_stacked_pr_support.py (18 policy cases), stacked base-equivalence in
test_issue_lock_worktree.py, approved_stacked_base persistence round-trip in
test_issue_lock_store.py. Existing lock/create_pr regressions still pass.
The #482 -> #479/#478 case motivates this: create_pr previously could not open a
stacked PR because the lock required a master-equivalent worktree.
Closes #484.

### Stacked PRs (explicit exception, #484)
|
||||
|
||||
Normal author work stays base-equivalent to `master`/`main`/`dev`. A **stacked PR** — deliberately based on another unmerged PR's branch — is the only sanctioned non-master base, and only when the operator/controller explicitly chooses it:
|
||||
|
||||
- Branch the `branches/` worktree from the dependency's branch, then lock with `gitea_lock_issue(..., stacked_base_branch=<dep-branch>, stacked_base_pr=<open-PR#>)`. The lock fails closed unless that open PR owns the branch; arbitrary or stale branches are rejected.
|
||||
- Open the PR with `gitea_create_pr(base=<dep-branch>)`. The body must state: `Stacked on PR #<X> / issue #<Y>`, `Base branch: <dep-branch>`, `Head branch: <this-branch>`, `Do not merge before PR #<X>`, and note retarget/rebase to `master` after the dependency lands if required.
|
||||
- This does not relax the main-checkout rule or bypass the issue lock — work still happens under `branches/`, and the approved base is recorded on the lock.
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. No raw MCP repair during normal issue work
|
||||
|
||||
Do not run `pkill`, kill MCP processes, edit MCP config, restart servers, or perform control-checkout repair during normal issue work.
