The stable-control runtime ADR (docs/architecture/mcp-stable-control-runtime-policy-adr.md)
established the policy but had no runtime enforcement: a daemon relaunched from a
feature worktree still holds production credentials and will happily mutate real
issues. This adds the enforcement layer (acceptance criteria 6-11).
stable_control_runtime.py:
- classify_runtime_mode(): stable-control | dev-test | unknown, inferred from the
process root and checkout branch, with an explicit GITEA_MCP_RUNTIME_MODE
declaration for packaged layouts that have no git checkout.
- build_runtime_report(): runtime mode, git SHA, branch, checkout path, process
root, active workspace, repo binding, profile, identity, dirty files,
alignment, and real_mutations_allowed.
- assess_runtime_mutation_gate(): fails closed on dev-test targeting production,
unknown runtime, dirty stable checkout, dev-worktree launch, and unsafe
process-root/workspace alignment.
- Post-transport-flap re-proving tracked per namespace, so proving the author
namespace never implies reviewer, merger, or reconciler (#584).
- assess_promotion_record(): promotion must record previous and promoted SHAs
plus health, identity, profile, workspace, capability, and rollback proof.
Server wiring:
- _profile_operation_gate() consults the runtime gate alongside the #420 parity
gate. gitea.read is never blocked, so an operator can still diagnose a sick
runtime.
- The gate reads a startup snapshot rather than shelling out per mutation, for
the same reason parity uses a startup baseline: the runtime a process serves
from is fixed when it loads its code. Enforcement is decided from how the
process was loaded, so per-test production simulation cannot switch it on.
- gitea_get_runtime_context() reports the live runtime under
stable_control_runtime and points at the promotion runbook when blocked.
Docs and tooling:
- docs/stable-runtime-promotion-runbook.md: operator promotion procedure,
required record fields, per-namespace re-proving, rollback.
- scripts/promote-stable-runtime: read-only helper that emits and validates a
promotion record; it never restarts anything.
- Five canonical [THREAD STATE LEDGER] examples: runtime healthy, transport flap
recovered, namespace not yet re-proven, promotion completed, rollback required.
- ADR section 5 follow-ups marked landed; runbooks cross-link the new runbook.
Validation: 47 new tests in tests/test_stable_control_runtime.py. Full suite
3827 passed / 6 skipped / 2 failed; both failures are pre-existing on master
059ee77 (verified in a clean baseline worktree: identical 2 failures,
3780 passed).

Provide a narrow phase-scoped bootstrap so gitea_create_issue can run from
a clean canonical control checkout when no issue number—and therefore no
issue-backed worktree—can exist yet. Dirty roots, non-base branches, base
races, foreign workspaces, and all post-creation author mutations remain
fail-closed under the ordinary branches-only guard.
Closes#749.
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
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.
Make the preflight bypass test actually exercise purity (not test short-circuit),
cover unmerged/open-head fail-closed cleanup, and document post-merge cleanup
ownership for prgs-reconciler so authors are not required for that path.
Add canonical_comment_validator and wire it into issue comments, PR review
bodies, reconcile post_comment, and structured comment helpers. Workflow-changing
comments without complete next-action state are rejected before any API call.
Includes unit/MCP integration tests, runbook docs, and a final-report rule
blocking false "comment posted" claims when validation failed.
Expose gitea-workflow / llm-project-workflow / git-pr-workflows as one
workflow router in mcp_list_project_skills, add preflight + Codex install
script, and document multi-runtime skill name parity.
Document the narrow controller-authorized path for landing MCP workflow
fixes when live daemons cannot canonically review themselves, with
required audits, allowed/forbidden actions, and post-land restart steps.
- Updated llm-project-workflow/SKILL.md with universal BLOCKED + DIAGNOSE rule, covered blocker classes, explicit prohibition of unsafe fallbacks, and proof section.
- Added templates/blocked-diagnose-report.md (standard template with all required fields).
- Updated workflows/work-issue.md, review-merge-pr.md, create-issue.md and templates/start-issue.md, review-pr.md, merge-pr.md, recover-bad-state.md to require and reference the rule at load.
- Updated docs/llm-workflow-runbooks.md to reinforce the rule for controller prompts and all workflows.
- All changes in isolated worktree branches/issue-552-blocked-diagnose. No root mutation. No unsafe fallbacks used.
- Tests (workflow + cleanup proofs): 26+ passed in run.
- git diff --check prgs/master...HEAD: clean.
Replace manual in-process _SESSION_LEASE seeding with an auditable
gitea_adopt_merger_pr_lease tool that posts durable adoption proof and
records sanctioned session provenance. Mutation gates now reject bare
record_session_lease calls without provenance from acquire/adopt/heartbeat.
Closes#536
Namespace-scoped workspace resolution prevents GITEA_AUTHOR_WORKTREE from
poisoning reviewer, merger, and reconciler purity checks. Each role uses
its own worktree env var with actionable binding-source errors and safe
reconnect guidance. Preserves #274/#475 author and control-checkout guards.
