Session-bound author mutations (create_issue, lock_issue, create_pr, etc.)
called verify_preflight_purity without org/repo, so anti-stomp filled the
remote-wide REMOTES default (prgs → Timesheet) and false-positived wrong_repo
against a Gitea-Tools checkout even when callers passed explicit coordinates.
Mirror _resolve: prefer workspace-derived identity for omitted coordinates on
session-bound tasks; keep delete_branch's explicit-target contract (#733).
Also forward org/repo at author mutation call sites. Add cross-repo regression
coverage. Do not change REMOTES["prgs"]["repo"].
The MCP server derived the canonical repository root from the install
checkout the server script lives in (PROJECT_ROOT), so any namespace that
ran the server against an external repository (e.g. eagenda-author, or the
mcp-control-plane reviewer/merger namespaces) failed every mutation: the
branches-only / worktree-membership guards (#274) compared the task
workspace against the Gitea-Tools .git directory it can never belong to.
Separate the two concepts:
- PROJECT_ROOT stays the immutable code/install root.
- A new, optional, namespace-scoped canonical_repository_root binds the
session to the working root of the target repository.
Implementation:
- canonical_repository_root.py: resolve the binding from profile/env
(GITEA_CANONICAL_REPOSITORY_ROOT overrides the profile field), validate
existence + git identity, fail closed on missing/conflicting/forged
bindings. Preserves the single-repo default when unconfigured.
- session_context_binding.py: pin canonical_repository_root into the
immutable #714 session context; drift fails closed.
- namespace_workspace_binding.py: route the configured target root through
resolve_namespace_mutation_context so #274 / membership guards evaluate
against the target repository.
- gitea_mcp_server.py: seed + enforce the binding in the mutation preflight
(both purity-order and FORCE_PRODUCTION_GUARDS paths); validate repository
identity and git common-directory membership.
- gitea_config.py: validate the optional absolute-path profile field.
- gitea_auth.py: surface the config-sourced field through get_profile.
No weakening of root-checkout, remote/repository, or anti-stomp guards; the
single-repo Gitea-Tools path is unchanged.
Tests: two distinct real git repositories/worktrees prove cross-repository
bindings resolve, enforce membership, and fail closed on forged/conflicting
identity and simultaneous prgs/mdcps isolation.

gitea_delete_branch accepted explicit org/repo but did not propagate them
through the anti-stomp preflight. During a deletion targeting
Scaled-Tech-Consulting/Gitea-Tools, preflight resolved the remote-wide prgs
default (Scaled-Tech-Consulting/Timesheet) and failed closed with wrong_repo
before any deletion — because verify_preflight_purity was called without
org/repo and the shared #604 anti-stomp resolution fell back to the REMOTES
default.
Fix (delete_branch only; REMOTES untouched):
1. Forward the explicit org/repo into verify_preflight_purity so the shared
#604 anti-stomp resolution validates the *targeted* repository instead of
the remote-wide default. Explicit Scaled-Tech-Consulting/Gitea-Tools now
propagates through role/workspace verification, verify_preflight_purity,
anti-stomp repository resolution, and the final native deletion request.
2. Add a workspace-derived repository-binding gate
(_delete_branch_repository_binding_block) that validates explicit
coordinates against the immutable, workspace-aligned repository identity.
Wrong, substituted, or unverified coordinates fail closed — independent of
the anti-stomp remote/repo guard, which by the #530 contract trusts explicit
caller intent. REMOTES defaults are never consulted as an authorization
scope.
Preserved: reconciler-only ownership of gitea.branch.delete; author/reviewer/
merger denial; protected and preservation/evidence gates; missing coordinates
still fail closed via the anti-stomp default resolution.
Regression matrix (tests/test_issue_733_delete_branch_repo_forwarding.py):
Timesheet-default + explicit Gitea-Tools permits an eligible deletion and
forwards the coordinates; wrong/substituted/unverified coordinates fail closed;
author/reviewer/merger remain denied; protected and preservation branches
remain blocked; anti-stomp resolution marks explicit coordinates authoritative
and fails closed on the remote-wide default for omitted coordinates; the
task-capability and role-routing maps stay consistent.

Mutation tools (create_issue, create_pr, delete_branch, issue-lock) returned
reason_code=internal_error / retryable=false with no class, message, HTTP
status, or actionable detail. The #699/#701 tool-error boundary intentionally
collapses every non-typed exception to a fixed "Internal tool error" and drops
the class and message, so a mutation failure is undiagnosable — and the #695
runtime guard blocks standalone reproduction. The true failing stage was
therefore invisible by two independent mechanisms.
Make the failure observable and actionable without weakening the secret-free
contract:
- Boundary (internal_error path ONLY): capture a safe exception class (a Python
type identifier, never instance text) plus a strictly-redacted `detail`
(token/Authorization/Bearer credentials, JSON/kv secret values incl. short
passwords, raw URLs/hostnames, and absolute filesystem paths all stripped;
whitespace collapsed; length-bounded) and an optional `mutation_stage`. Typed
auth/authz/network/config/http paths are unchanged and still emit no detail.
- Convert raw exceptions into typed structured errors via a safe
`gitea_reason_code` attribute contract: server raisers may self-declare a
known reason and the boundary emits it (fixed message) instead of an opaque
internal_error. Pre-flight order violations now raise `_PreflightOrderError`
(a RuntimeError subclass → preflight_order_violation).
- Add a `_mutation_stage` context manager tagging escaping exceptions with the
stage name (preflight_purity / resolve_auth / api_*), applied to
delete_branch, create_issue, create_pr.
Fail-closed identity/repo/worktree/role/permission/lock/lease/ancestry gates
are untouched; only error *reporting* changed. New suite
test_mutation_error_diagnostics.py (18 tests) pins the redaction, class capture,
stage tagging, typed conversion, and adversarial no-leak contract. Existing
boundary suite (25), core server (209), and preflight (92) suites stay green.

Remote post-merge branch deletion was blocked because the capability
resolver classified delete_branch as an author-role task while
gitea.branch.delete is granted only to prgs-reconciler. No configured
profile could satisfy both the permission gate and the role gate, so
every deletion failed closed with performed=false.
Re-home delete_branch from the author role to the reconciler role in
both single-source-of-truth maps:
- task_capability_map.TASK_CAPABILITY_MAP["delete_branch"].role
- role_session_router: TASK_REQUIRED_ROLE + AUTHOR_TASKS/RECONCILER_TASKS
resolve_task_capability("delete_branch") now resolves to prgs-reconciler.
In gitea_delete_branch, the reconciler is now the delete-capable role and
performs raw deletion through the existing reconciliation-cleanup-phase
authorization gate (operator approval + safe_to_delete proof) plus the
preservation/protected guards; the prior reconciler->cleanup redirect is
removed as it would orphan that guarded flow. Author, reviewer, and
merger stay denied by the permission gate and the required-role gate.
gitea_cleanup_merged_pr_branch remains a separate reconciler-owned path
with independent merged/ancestry/ownership verification.
Tests: reconciler resolves + performs eligible deletion; author/reviewer/
merger denied even when holding the permission; protected/preservation
branches remain fail-closed; both role maps asserted in agreement.
Updated pre-existing tests that encoded the superseded author-delete /
#687 reconciler-redirect contract. Full suite: 3190 passed, 6 skipped,

_verify_role_mutation_workspace dropped org/repo, so anti-stomp resolved bare

lease release. Add regression for merger acquire forwarding.
Fixes#718
Refs #723
gitea_acquire_merger_pr_lease previously continued when GET /pulls returned
an empty head SHA. Fail closed so exact-head scoping never proceeds with an
unresolvable live head. Add regression coverage for empty head payloads.

Prevent approved PRs from stalling when master advances. Add
gitea_assess_pr_sync_status and gitea_update_pr_branch_by_merge with

controller routing in review-merge workflow, and hermetic AC tests.
Harden gitea_acquire_merger_pr_lease with required candidate_head, live-head

and merger lease acquire/adopt. Make unknown tasks return structured
unknown_task (no ValueError escape). Expand tests for roles, head scoping,
aliases, and unknown_task.
Closes#718. Addresses #723 resolver unknown_task and lease task mapping.
This implements the native merger lease acquisition tool to allow a merger session to acquire its own lease when a reviewer lease does not exist or has expired, unblocking #679 adoption.
Stale-runtime detection remains fail-closed, but gitea_resolve_task_capability

- Remove _trigger_mcp_auto_restart from the read-only diagnostics path
- Return blocker_kind=runtime_reconnect_required with mutation_performed=false
- Keep exact_safe_next_action pointing at IDE/client reconnect when stale

EXCEPTIONAL OPERATOR-AUTHORIZED BREAK-GLASS RECOVERY - incident #722.
Commit 970e68b ("fix: adopt_merger_pr_lease requires merger role") was an
unreviewed direct push that flipped 11 task_capability_map.py entries to
role="merger" instead of the intended 1. Merger profiles forbid the review
permissions, so no configured profile could resolve review_pr / approve_pr /
request_changes_pr (matching_configured_profile was empty repository-wide)
and no fix PR could be formally reviewed. The operator resolved the catch-22
with a one-time break-glass authorization recorded on issue #722
(comment 11918); this commit is the authorized minimum and nothing more.
Changes:
- task_capability_map.py restored to blob 02826af (the preserved intended
correction, local commit c071f8a1): the 10 regressive entries return to
role="reviewer"; adopt_merger_pr_lease keeps role="merger"; merge_pr is
untouched.
- tests/test_task_capability_role_invariants.py added (#723 AC1/AC2):
profile-coverage invariant for formal review tasks, map/router agreement,
merger-only adopt_merger_pr_lease and merge_pr, merger profiles cannot
hold review permissions.

Terminal review-decision ledgers are recovery-critical provenance, not
disposable session cache. A generic four-hour TTL previously made
fresh_review_on_current_head_allowed unreachable after age expiry on open
PRs (PR #616 / review 443 reproduction).
- Classify KIND_DECISION_LOCK as RECOVERY_CRITICAL so load/mark_final work
after >4h without hand-editing session-state files
- Stamp kind + recovery_critical on save for compatibility
- Add inspect_state_envelope so assessment reports on-disk evidence instead
of silent "no lock" when TTL would hide non-critical kinds
- Surface disk_inspect on stale decision-lock cleanup assessment
Preserves same-head #332 hard-stop, #620 head-scoped fresh review, #594
moot cleanup, and #709 irrecoverable authorization (no ordinary-profile
permission grant).
Require branch-scoped post-delete not-found (not generic/repo/host 404),
emit consistent top-level cleanup fields, fail closed on ownership inventory
errors, never auto-reclaim expired control-plane leases, include active
comment-backed reviewer leases, apply the same gates to reconcile_merged_cleanups,
and match ownership with normalized host identity.
Require authoritative not-found readback after merged-PR branch DELETE, and
block cleanup when active author/reviewer/merger/controller/reconciler
session, lease, or worktree-binding ownership still uses the target branch.
Close the #714 remediation gap left at 943d402 where env-only mutation
profiles, REMOTES Timesheet defaults treated as explicit caller input, and
machine-dependent Git remotes produced false greens.
- Fail closed when mutations lack a config-backed profile with non-empty
allowed_repositories; env ops cannot invent mutation authority.
- Preserve omitted-vs-explicit org/repo provenance through the mutation
gate; omitted targets bind to the verified workspace repository.
- Prefer workspace-aligned Git remotes over historical Timesheet defaults
in MCP _resolve and CLI resolve_remote.
- Centralize deterministic config-backed mutation fixtures; migrate
mutation tests off env-only authority without weakening security
assertions.
Full suite: 2744 passed, 6 skipped.
The independent review reproduced a real hole: the production first-bind path
never pinned repository/org, so the drift checks it feeds were skipped.
Root cause
----------
gitea_whoami, gitea_get_runtime_context, gitea_resolve_task_capability and
gitea_activate_profile all seeded the session context without repository or
org. First-bind-wins then made the mutation gate's later seed a no-op, and
assess_session_context only compares repository/org when the bound fields are
non-null. Result, reproduced in production order with the real REMOTES:
after whoami: repository=None org=None
same-host repo=Other-Tools -> NOT BLOCKED
same-host org=Other-Org -> NOT BLOCKED
cross-host -> blocked (this part always worked)
Binding REMOTES defaults would not fix it: REMOTES['prgs'].repo is 'Timesheet'
(a default *target*, not an authorization scope, see #530), so pinning it fails
closed on every legitimate Gitea-Tools mutation. There was no trusted source
for repository scope, so this adds one.
Design
------
- New optional profile field `allowed_repositories`: canonical owner/repository
slugs. An authorization boundary, never the binding itself. Config-only —
no env var can widen or forge it.
- The session repository is derived from the verified, workspace-aligned git
remote, never from caller-supplied org/repo, and validated against that
allowlist. The session binds immutably to exactly one canonical slug; org is
derived from it. A profile authorizing several repositories still binds to
the single verified one.
- Every first-bind entry point now pins the same complete context. Activation
rejects an unauthorized/unverifiable workspace. Mutations fail closed when
repository/org is unverified, and a tool-level org/repo override that
disagrees with the binding is rejected before the write.
- A mutation request can no longer establish, complete, or replace the binding
(it previously seeded from `org or REMOTES[...]`, i.e. caller-controlled).
- Enforcement is opt-in per profile: a profile without the field keeps prior
behaviour, so existing static-profile namespaces stay functional.
First-bind-wins, immutability, the RLock, profile isolation, host/identity
validation and the private pytest-only reset are unchanged.
gitea_auth.get_profile() built an explicit whitelist dict and silently dropped
`allowed_repositories`; the new integration tests caught that the scope was
never enforced through the real path.
Tests
-----
New tests/test_issue_714_production_first_bind.py drives the real entry points
in production order rather than constructing _SessionContext directly. Covers
complete first bind via each entry point, same-host repo/org drift, Timesheet
and other-repo/other-org rejection, unverified and unauthorized workspaces,
caller values unable to establish the binding, concurrent init selecting one
repository, and the PR #715 author path staying functional. Mutation-verified:
disabling trusted derivation, override validation, the scope check, or the
get_profile passthrough each fails these tests (9/8/4/5 failures).
No security assertion was weakened, removed, skipped, or rewritten.

The formal REQUEST_CHANGES review on PR #715 was resolved by the test
isolation commit (29ffe14); the full suite is green. Auditing the required
session-lifecycle coverage surfaced three gaps that the suite did not prove:
- Every cross-host test pinned mdcps-reviewer and denied prgs. The reverse
direction (a pinned MDCPS profile must never serve a prgs request, nor be
swapped for prgs-author) was unproven.
- test_parallel_calls_cannot_overwrite_established_binding binds first and
then races, so concurrent *initialization* from an unbound context — N
threads racing to first-bind, exactly one winner, no torn context — was
unproven.
- assess_session_context checks repository and org drift, but no test bound a
repository/org and asserted a same-host mismatch fails closed.
Adds three tests covering those cases. Each was mutation-verified: disabling
the first-bind-wins guard, the cross-host denial, and the repository/org drift
checks makes the corresponding test fail.
Additive only — no production code changed and no existing security assertion
weakened, skipped, or rewritten.

Address formal review 438 REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #710 (F6/F7/F8).
F6 — HMAC key-version validation fails closed:
- verify_authorization_artifact validates key_version BEFORE any MAC work, so an
attacker-chosen version can never select the signing key.
- Require exactly one nonempty, well-formed key-version field; missing, empty,
unknown, malformed, duplicated (including identical-valued and nested
aliases), and mismatched versions all fail. No versionless legacy fallback.
- Artifact version must equal the configured active version; production now
requires GITEA_IRRECOVERABLE_AUTH_HMAC_KEY_VERSION explicitly (an implicit
default made rotation ambiguous). Version stays inside the signed material.
F7 — strictly canonical incident evidence:
- Replace substring/first-match parsing with an exact schema: marker on line 1,
every field once, fixed order, no duplicate/unknown/empty/conflicting fields
in or outside the signed block. The parsed body is re-rendered and compared
for exact equality before acceptance.
- content_digest now binds the full recovery scope: repository identity, PR,
decision-lock identity, destroyed subject, recovery action, recorded and
expected head, incident issue, evidence author, minting actor, key version,
nonce and issued_at.
- Actor identity is the immutable user id with login consistency; conflicting
ids/logins and display-name-only identities fail closed. Edited comments are
rejected. The independent-author rule is preserved and enforced by stable id.
- build_canonical_incident_body is the single source of the accepted format and
refuses to emit ambiguous evidence.
F8 — archival is a prerequisite for clearing terminal evidence:
- _clear_decision_lock_for_profile no longer swallows archive failures. It
requires a successful write plus a durable read-back matching the PR/head,
and otherwise returns a structured, retry-safe failure that retains the lock
and records actionable recovery evidence.
- Fixes a latent bug the read-back exposed: the archive payload inherited the
source lock's session_profile_lock, so save_state keyed the archive under the
reviewer profile instead of the archive identity and it never read back.
Adversarial regressions added for every listed case: key-version missing/empty/
unknown/malformed/duplicate/rotation/wrong-key-after-restart, reordered fields,
duplicate identical and conflicting fields, conflicting actor ids/names,
digest-preserving substitution, decision-lock and recovery-action substitution,
cross-PR/repo/org/remote/head replay, archive exception/timeout/false/empty/
partial-readback with proof the lock survives, exactly-one permitted clear, and
retry after archive failure. No existing assertion was weakened.

Remove the public allow_test_bootstrap production seam so caller-controlled

canonical entrypoint path plus a live stdio transport bind; basename-only
mcp_server.py stack frames and import-only launch no longer authorize

reviewer-found bypasses and related spoof vectors.

Bind mutation/credential paths to a process-local native MCP runtime so env

after native transport failure. Quarantine contaminated formal reviews under
controller authority and honor quarantine in review feedback, merge eligibility,
merge mutation, and canonical handoff validation. Add regression coverage for
the second (PR #694 / review 427) incident class.
Fixes the final-report validator defects from Issue #698 (original lead
plus the independent reproduction recorded during the PR #703 formal
review, comment 11246):
- Legacy fields: the review/merger required-field tables no longer demand
'Pinned reviewed head', 'Scratch worktree used', 'Worktree path',
'Worktree dirty', 'Mutations', 'Next', 'Issue/PR', 'Branch/SHA', or
'Files changed' — names the canonical review-merge-final-report schema
forbids or replaces. The canonical names ('Reviewed head SHA', 'Review
worktree path/dirty', 'Safe next action', mutation categories) are
required instead, with backward-compatible aliases where the schema
permits them.
- Structured proof: workflow-load helper results are recognized in
colon, key=value, and JSON renderings; validation pass proof is
accepted anywhere in the Validation field value (for example
'focused 50 passed; full 2665 passed').
- Mutation inference: review mutations are inferred only from
authoritative evidence (performed=true and not gated); read-only
diagnostics and pre-API rejections no longer count as mutations.
- Lease release vs cleanup: canonical reviewer lease release (release
tool call or terminal phase=released marker) is lease lifecycle, not
post-merge cleanup, and no longer triggers the branch/worktree cleanup
checklist; genuine delete/remove claims still require full proof.
- Blocked reports: a legitimately blocked run that states an explicit
'Reviewed/Candidate head SHA: none' with no verdict, merge, or started
validation owes no head proofs; approval-time and merge-time live-head
proofs are demanded only once the corresponding phase begins, and a
report that states no head at all still fails closed.
- action_log robustness: malformed (non-dict) entries and non-list logs
are reported as clear sanitized findings (position and type only, no
content echo) instead of crashing with AttributeError; a defective
validator rule now fails closed with a sanitized block finding rather
than raising a secondary exception.

Fixes the six defects from the formal REQUEST_CHANGES review at
889931d553:
- F1: run sanctioned stale-binding recovery in
gitea_resolve_task_capability BEFORE the terminal launcher probe, so a
worktree removed mid-session can no longer wedge mutation resolution on
'missing cwd' before recovery runs. The fail-closed probe block now also
carries the binding classification evidence.
- F2: _resolve_preflight_workspace_path resolves with the same
verify_paths existence checks as the canonical mutation context, and
_get_workspace_porcelain returns a synthetic tracked-dirty sentinel when
the workspace is missing or git fails — an uninspectable workspace can
never read as clean/empty porcelain.
- F3: the orphaned_expired_superseded_head cleanup matrix now requires
affirmative safe worktree evidence (worktree_clean=true or
worktree_exists=false), aligned with the sibling orphaned_owner_missing
gate and the diagnosis path; unknown evidence fails closed.
- F4: reviewer-session-lease shadows and stale-binding audit records are
recovery-critical kinds exempt from the 4h session-state TTL; they
persist until a sanctioned clear terminally reconciles them.
- F5: session-lease shadows are keyed by lease session id (collision-safe
identity) with a list_states enumeration API; concurrent same-profile
sessions can no longer overwrite or misattribute each other's crash
evidence. Legacy single-slot records remain readable.
- F6: the durable audit record is persisted (status=pending) BEFORE the
environment binding is cleared; if audit persistence fails the clear
does not happen and the failure is reported explicitly.
30 new regression tests cover deleted-worktree recovery ordering, missing/
deleted/symlinked/mid-evaluation path changes, unknown-evidence cleanup,
TTL boundary (before/at/after), interleaved and reconnected concurrent
sessions, and audit-write failure/retry/idempotence/ordering.

An unhandled daemon crash skips teardown: the durable reviewer lease
comment survives, the in-memory session lease dies, and the
auto-reconnected daemon inherits a stale GITEA_ACTIVE_WORKTREE from its
parent environment (PR #701 / branches/review-pr-654 incident).
AC2 — safe clear/re-bind of stale bindings:
- new stale_binding_recovery.py: classifies the active env binding
(corroborated / unverified_inherited / provably_stale_missing_path /
superseded_by_session_lease) and produces a fail-closed recovery plan;
only provably stale bindings are clear-eligible
- gitea_resolve_task_capability and daemon boot run the sanctioned
recovery (durable audit via session state); runtime context surfaces
the classification read-only
- namespace_workspace_binding.resolve_namespace_workspace(verify_paths=…)
demotes env-bound worktrees whose path no longer exists; mutation and
runtime-context resolution always verify
AC3 — recoverable lease cleanup after unexpected exit:
- durable session-lease shadow (KIND_REVIEWER_SESSION_LEASE) written on
sanctioned record/heartbeat, removed on sanctioned clear; a crash
leaves provable orphan evidence (owner pid + session id)
- assess_crashed_session_lease_orphan derives tri-state
owner_process_alive: only a dead recorded owner pid proves exit; PID
liveness is never ownership proof
- diagnose/cleanup wrappers consume the shadow instead of passing
owner_process_alive=None
- new classification orphaned_expired_superseded_head: an expired
superseded-head lease with no terminal review stops being a permanent
ambiguous/wait; post-expiry it unlocks fresh acquisition, and guarded
cleanup becomes eligible only with owner-exit evidence + clean/absent
worktree + controller authorization + confirmation. Pre-expiry
behavior is unchanged (fail-closed wait, no steal).

stays valid and classified reconciler; missing grant is reported as
missing-recommended
- tests/test_branch_cleanup_guard.py: author- and merger-shaped profiles
without gitea.branch.delete fail closed on gitea_cleanup_merged_pr_branch

Address REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #680:
Blocker A — role vs capability agreement
- authorization_compatible allows reviewer/merger when they hold the task's
required permission (e.g. gitea.issue.comment on comment_issue/mark_issue/
set_issue_labels/lock_issue) without broad role-bypass.
- Unauthorized escalation without the permission remains fail closed.
- Regression coverage for allowed and denied reviewer/merger cases.
Blocker B — MUTATION_TASKS matches runtime wiring
- Remove unenforced entries; document dedicated-gate exclusions
(mark_final_review_decision, save/resume_review_draft, etc.).
- Wire non-closing gitea_edit_pr as edit_pr; acquire lease uses
acquire_reviewer_pr_lease task through verify_preflight_purity.
- Inventory↔wiring consistency tests replace set-membership-only coverage.
Blocker C — entrypoint side-effect ordering
- Behavioral tests for merge_pr, submit_pr_review, and comment_issue prove
the assessor block aborts before Gitea API mutation and local durable writes.
Validation: 43 focused anti-stomp + related suites green; full suite
2639 passed / 6 skipped.
Closes#604
Add a shared fail-closed anti-stomp preflight that mutation tools invoke
before create/comment/lease/review/approve/request-changes/merge/cleanup/
label mutations. Composes repo/role/root/worktree/lease/terminal-lock/
head-SHA/stale-runtime/workflow-hash/contamination checks into a typed
blocker with an exact next action. No agent bypass flags.
Add an env-var-gated, off-by-default Sentry SDK integration so MCP runtime
errors, fail-closed workflow blockers, lease/terminal-lock/stale-runtime
collisions, and recurring watchdog check-ins are visible in a self-hosted
Sentry at https://sentry.prgs.cc/. Gitea stays the source of truth; Sentry is
observe-only.
New module `sentry_observability.py` mirrors the `gitea_audit` conventions
(env-gated, best-effort, redacting):
- Config from MCP_SENTRY_ENABLED / SENTRY_DSN / SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT /
SENTRY_RELEASE / MCP_SENTRY_TRACES_SAMPLE_RATE / MCP_SENTRY_ENABLE_LOGS.
Active only when enabled AND a DSN is present; otherwise a hard no-op.
- Fail OPEN for observability (never blocks a tool success path) and fail
CLOSED for redaction (drop a field rather than risk leaking it).
- `scrub_event` before_send/before_send_log hook + allowlisted tags: no
tokens/passwords/keychain ids/DSNs/cookies, no raw session-state or full
prompt bodies (session_id -> 12-char hash), no full filesystem paths
(worktree path -> coarse category). Reuses incident_bridge + gitea_audit
scrubbers.
- capture_exception, capture_workflow_blocker (with canonical next action),
and monitor_checkin with six stable cron slugs (stale lease scan, terminal
lock scan, allocator health, namespace health, dashboard freshness,
reconciler cleanup).
- `sentry_sdk` is a lazily-imported optional dependency; the module imports
and no-ops cleanly when the package is absent.
Wiring in gitea_mcp_server.py (additive, guarded, best-effort):
- init_sentry() in __main__ before mcp.run.
- capture_exception in the `_audited` failure path; capture_workflow_blocker
in `_audit_pr_result` BLOCKED/FAILED path.
- allocator + namespace-health watchdog check-ins at their MCP tool sites
(domain modules left pure).
Also: pin `sentry-sdk==2.20.0` (optional), document the six env vars in
`.env.example`, and add `docs/observability/sentry-integration.md` covering
project creation in https://sentry.prgs.cc/, DSN handling, local/dev/prod
config, redaction guarantees, and coexistence with the #612 incident bridge.
Tests: tests/test_sentry_observability.py (36 cases) cover disabled / enabled /
missing-DSN / missing-SDK, redaction, exception capture, workflow-blocker
capture, and cron check-in behaviour. Full suite: 2632 passed, 6 skipped.

Prevention hardening for the #670 incident (bare direct-to-master commit
2fa97c26 and the PR #654 merger stable-branch push attempt). Worker sessions
must never publish stable branches directly; stable updates land only through
sanctioned Gitea merge tooling or an authorized reconciler path.
New pure module stable_branch_push_guard.py:
- classify_push_command: detects git push <remote> <stable-ref> equivalents
including refspecs (HEAD:<ref>, +refs/heads/x:refs/heads/<ref>), --force,
--delete/:<ref>, and --dry-run/-n no-op probes (dry-run still proves intent).
Fetch/pull and feature-branch pushes are never flagged; sanctioned
gitea_merge_pr / API merge is not a push.
- assess_root_checkout_local_commit: detects control-checkout commits not on an
issue feature branch (branches/ worktrees exempt).
- redact_command: strips URL userinfo/token assignments before logging.
- build_contamination_record + assess_contamination_gate: durable marker shape
and fail-closed gate (reconciler-exempt; comment/lock stay allowed for handoff).
Server wiring (gitea_mcp_server.py, mcp_session_state.py):
- KIND_STABLE_BRANCH_CONTAMINATION durable session marker (per profile identity).
- _enforce_stable_branch_contamination_gate wired into verify_preflight_purity
so review/merge/close/completion mutations fail closed while contaminated.
- gitea_record_stable_branch_push_attempt: classify + mark on detection.
- gitea_audit_stable_branch_contamination: reconciler-only inspect/clear; a
worker session can never self-clear.
Tests (AC5): no-op dry-run push, real direct push, sanctioned Gitea merge,
fetch-only, root-checkout local commit, feature-branch push allowed, gate
block/reconciler-exempt, redaction. 51 new tests; full suite 2596 passed.
Docs: llm-project-workflow SKILL.md — universal rule, blocker class, and a
dedicated "Stable Branch Push Protection" section (worker sessions must never
push stable branches directly).

Add orthogonal role:* (single-active owner) and hazard:* (additive warning)
lifecycle labels plus status:changes-requested, folding the #603 state:*
vocabulary into the canonical status:* set rather than a conflicting parallel
prefix.
- issue_workflow_labels.py: ROLE_/HAZARD_ specs + frozensets; role/hazard
transition maps and helpers (transition_role_labels, add/clear_hazard_label,
canonical_role_label, canonical_hazard_label, is_discussion,
is_implementation_candidate, requires_blocking_reason); state:* -> status:*
synonym transitions; assess_issue_labels surfaces role/hazard dims and flags
multiple active role labels
- docs/label-taxonomy.md: role, hazard, state->canonical migration, and
allocator cross-check sections
- tests: role/hazard/discussion/blocking-reason/state-synonym coverage
- manage_labels.py seeds the new labels automatically via CANONICAL_LABEL_SPECS
Labels remain advisory; control-plane leases (#601) and live PR state stay the
source of truth for mutations (#603 AC2).
Closes#603

Closes#627
Merges paginated repository-label inventory for gitea_set_issue_labels so later-page labels are not falsely rejected during full-set replacement.
Replace single-page GET labels?limit=100 with api_get_all-backed
_repo_label_id_map so later-page labels (e.g. type:feature,
workflow-hardening) are not falsely rejected during full-set replacement.
Also add post-mutation verification, fix related MCP/CLI label inventory
call sites, and add multi-page regression tests for the #601 reconciler
failure mode.
Closes#627
- Update MCP expired-lock recovery test for sticky expired ownership
(live pid + present worktree still fail closed under #601 reclaim rules)
- Remove trailing blank line at EOF in control_plane_db.py
Add phase-1 observability bridge that turns provider observations into
normal Gitea issues and control-plane incident_links rows. Dry-run is
default; apply creates/links through sanctioned Gitea issue paths only.
Raw incidents remain non-assignable; the #600 allocator sees bridge work
only as ordinary Gitea issues. Builds on #613 substrate and #600 allocator.
Closes#612
Add gitea_allocate_next_work and allocator_service routing policy on top of
the #613 ControlPlaneDB substrate. Workers get atomic assign+lease results
(or wait/no_safe_work/terminal-path outcomes) without self-selecting work
via file locks or comment-only leases. #612 remains downstream.
Closes#600
Prior REQUEST_CHANGES on head A no longer blocks formal re-review on
head B of the same open PR. Locks store reviewed head SHA, hard-stop and
mark_ready/submit gates allow a fresh decision boundary when the live
head differs, and same-head duplicates remain fail-closed. Open-PR lock
cleanup stays forbidden (#594); assessment reports locked vs current
head and stale_by_head / fresh_review_on_current_head_allowed.
Closes#620
Legacy NULL-scope dedupe only compared Gitea targets, so duplicate rows
with the same provider key and issue but different fingerprint/status/
event_count/etc. collapsed to the lowest link_id and silently dropped
observation data. Migration now compares all meaningful observation
fields and refuses to discard conflicts (#619 RC3 / #613).
Address remaining PR #619 blockers on head 783ea88:
- Deduplicate legacy NULL-scope incident_links before normalizing to ''
- Fail closed when duplicate rows disagree on Gitea target
- Require non-empty expected_head_sha for PR assign and mutation
Address REQUEST_CHANGES on PR #619:
- require_valid_assignment rejects terminal work states and head drift
- incident_links scope keys normalize NULL/blank to '' for UNIQUE
- remove trailing whitespace in control-plane-db-substrate.md
Add SQLite single-writer MVP control plane per the allocator ADR:
sessions, work_items (issue/pr only), atomic assign+lease, mutation
gates, terminal-lock index, and provider-neutral incident_links.
DB coordinates concurrency; Gitea remains assignable work; raw
Sentry/GlitchTip incidents are never work items. #600 and #612 build on
this substrate.
Add non-terminal review draft save/resume tools so a fully validated
reviewer verdict can survive MCP disconnect or stale-runtime restart
without counting as a formal review.
- gitea_save_review_draft: durable draft with PR, head SHA, target SHA,
worktree, validation evidence, intended verdict, and blocker reason
- gitea_resume_review_draft: live revalidation of head/target/#332/lease/
identity/worktree before mark-ready or optional submit
- Drafts never substitute for formal approval without revalidation
Closes#609
- Distinguish client_namespace vs offline_spawn probe sources; only IDE
client probes prove namespace health and feed mutation gates.
- Record assessments in session; gate gitea_submit_pr_review and
gitea_merge_pr when client-namespace health is unhealthy/non-proven.
- Mark test_mcp_conn.py offline-only; align recovery docs to client
reconnect (no PID-kill/config-touch as canonical recovery).
- Rebase onto current master so #590 ledger isolation keeps
TestMergePR.test_unknown_profile_blocks green.
