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.
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.

Prevent merger-local empty decision locks from standing in for reviewer
terminal cleanup, refuse silent re-init overwrite of unresolved terminal
evidence, record post-merge recovery-required state when audit fails, and
add a truthful irrecoverable-provenance path that never claims applied=true.
Closes#709
Remove the public allow_test_bootstrap production seam so caller-controlled
flags cannot forge native mutation provenance. Bind provenance to the resolved
canonical entrypoint path plus a live stdio transport bind; basename-only
mcp_server.py stack frames and import-only launch no longer authorize
mutations. Test-mode install_test_native_runtime is pytest-only and cannot
reach production Gitea mutation endpoints. Add AC9 regressions for both
reviewer-found bypasses and related spoof vectors.
Refs: PR #696 REQUEST_CHANGES at 253269c; issue #695 comments 11002/11005.
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.
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.
Issue #704 dotenv load-path prevention is intentionally NOT included.

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).
Validation: tests/test_issue_702_stale_binding_lease_recovery.py (29
tests covering lost in-session leases, old-head leases, runtime/worktree
mismatch, managed reconnect, safe expiry); full suite 2665 passed,

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).

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
