Bind mutation/credential paths to a process-local native MCP runtime so env
spoofing, direct imports, and offline helpers cannot reconstruct session gates
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.
Add fail-closed assessment and MCP tool for expired/superseded-head
comment-backed reviewer leases that lack a control-plane lease_id.
- assess_obsolete_reviewer_comment_lease_cleanup eligibility matrix
- diagnose classifications: foreign_active_current_head,
foreign_expired_current_head, foreign_completed_superseded_head,
foreign_expired_superseded_head, orphaned_owner_missing,
ambiguous_conflicting_evidence
- gitea_cleanup_obsolete_reviewer_comment_lease with confirmation
CLEANUP OBSOLETE REVIEWER LEASE <n> and controller_recovery_authorized
- preserve audit history via append-only phase=released marker
- never repoint, transfer validation, use PID ownership, or steal
active current-head foreign leases
- regression for PR #688 lease comment 10749 after recorded expiry
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).

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
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
- 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.
The namespace health check (05fdcee) classified a false-ready namespace but
only returned an advisory blocks_merge_workflow flag; nothing in the merge
gate consumed it. Wire it in so a broken live namespace hard-blocks merge.
- review_merge_state_machine.assess_workflow_blockers: add live_namespace_broken
blocker (registered-in-FastMCP but not callable-through-namespace).
- assess_state_advancement: forward **blocker_kwargs so can_approve/can_merge/
workflow_status honor the full blocker set (also fixes latent drop of
mcp_reconnect_failed/stale_capability_state through those paths).
- gitea_assess_review_merge_state_machine tool: accept live_namespace_broken and
thread it through all state-machine calls.
- Tests: prove can_merge/workflow_status/tool block on live_namespace_broken even
with every review state + pre-merge gate satisfied; bridge classify verdict.
- Docs: enforcement section wiring blocks_merge_workflow -> live_namespace_broken.

Delivers #529 acceptance criterion 6: controller issue closure must be
blocked when the closure report calls a non-zero test-suite exit an
"expected pre-existing"/baseline failure without pre-merge proof.
- controller_closure_baseline_proof.py: assess_controller_closure_baseline_proof
reuses the #533 pre-merge baseline verifier; empty report -> skipped/allowed,
clean pass -> allowed, proven baseline -> allowed, unproven baseline -> block.
- gitea_close_issue: optional closure_report param; fails closed (no state PATCH)
when the gate blocks.
- final_report_validator: new controller_close task kind (alias close_issue)
wired to the pre-merge baseline proof rule so a closure can be pre-checked.
- Tests: tests/test_controller_closure_baseline_proof.py plus two
gitea_close_issue gate tests.
Scope: criteria 2/3 (non-zero exit not a clean pass; baseline claims need
proof) are already enforced on master via premerge_baseline_proof (#533) and
the reviewer schema rules. Criteria 1/4/5 (post-merge moot canonical wording
and validation:* process-state labels) remain follow-up work.
Validation: full suite 2365 passed, 6 skipped; the 9 remaining failures
(tests/test_config.py TestAuthIntegration, tests/test_credentials.py
TestGetCredentials, test_issue_540 reviewer-role) are baseline-proven —
identical failures on clean prgs/master 6913ac9 (keychain/env dependent),
unrelated to this change.

Durable review-decision locks (#559) can outlive the PR they protect.
When the last terminal mutation references a PR that is already
merged/closed, expose gitea_cleanup_stale_review_decision_lock so a
reviewer can clear the lock with identity/profile gates and a durable
audit trail — without weakening #332 for open PRs or deleting
session-state files by hand.
Also auto-clear same-profile locks after a successful merge of the
approved PR, and document allowed vs forbidden cleanup.
Closes#594
#530's remote/repo guard blocked mcp_get_control_plane_guide(remote=prgs)
because the bare default resolves to Timesheet while local git is
Gitea-Tools, and remediation told callers to pass org/repo on a tool that
did not accept those parameters.
- Accept optional org/repo on mcp_get_control_plane_guide
- Prefer local git remote org/repo when bare defaults mismatch (read-only guide)
- Keep mutation tools fail-closed on bare mismatch
- Align remediation text with tools that accept org/repo
Closes#588
Add a pre-create content gate to gitea_create_issue that fails closed with
BLOCKED + DIAGNOSE when the title/body is a vague reference to out-of-band
draft content ("the drafted issue", "the prepared issue", "the issue we
discussed", "the previous draft") and no durable source pointer (existing
issue/PR/comment, checked-in file, URL, or scratchpad path) is present.
- issue_content_gate.py: assess_issue_content / pre_create_issue_content_gate
with vague-phrase detection, durable-source-pointer escape hatch, and a
domination check so long specific bodies are not falsely blocked.
- gitea_create_issue: runs the gate after preflight purity, before duplicate
search; new allow_incomplete_content override (off by default). Title-only
creation stays allowed (no empty-body requirement) to preserve behavior.
- tests/test_issue_content_gate.py: unit + MCP integration coverage.
- create-issue.md: documents the enforced preflight with valid/invalid
prompt examples.

Surface lease_proof_source / recovery reason from sanctioned session
provenance on gitea_merge_pr results, and block final reports that claim
manual/seeded/injected lease proof without MCP adoption evidence.
Closes#535
_authenticated_username expects a host for auth/API calls. Lease
acquire/adopt/gate/release paths passed the remote alias (prgs), so
identity resolved empty and same-identity release fail-closed across
sessions — blocking author conflict-fix pushes after REQUEST_CHANGES.
Pass resolved host h from _resolve into _authenticated_username.
Add categorize-and-probe helpers for shell spawn failures, expose
gitea_diagnose_terminal, and fail closed on mutation capability resolve
when the terminal launcher is unhealthy (BLOCKED + DIAGNOSE). Document
the operator path in the workflow runbooks.
