+
+## 1. Overview
+
+The **Notifications & Human-Attention Console** (`/notifications`, `/api/v1/notifications`) provides intelligent event classification and human-attention routing for autonomous workflow operations.
+
+To prevent alert fatigue while ensuring critical escalation boundaries are never missed, events are classified into three distinct **Attention Classes**:
+
+1. **`human-required`** (Urgent Escalation Boundary):
+   - Items requiring immediate human intervention or business decisions.
+   - Triggers: Auth failures, hard stops, irrecoverable state, decision locks, failed report validations, critical probe errors.
+   - Display: Highlighted in red (`badge-blocked`) with a `HUMAN REQUIRED` badge.
+
+2. **`operator`** (Operational Inbox):
+   - Items requiring controller or operator review/triage during routine execution.
+   - Triggers: Blocked PRs (merge conflicts), stale leases, duplicate PRs on issues, unassigned ready work.
+   - Display: Displayed in orange/yellow (`badge-claimed`).
+
+3. **`routine`** (Background Workflow Transitions):
+   - Normal, healthy workflow transitions and state progressions.
+   - Triggers: Active PRs/issues in standard state, clean branch creation, routine heartbeats.
+   - Display: Filtered out of default inbox views to eliminate notification spam; viewable on demand via the "Routine" or "All" tab.

-# Web console requests: intent preview and workflow initiation (#643)
-
-**Phase 2. Preview is always live and always read-only. Initiation is wired but
-denied until an operator opts in.**
-
-Before this surface, starting role work meant pasting a prompt into a terminal
-and trusting the operator to have checked the allocator first. Nothing enforced
-that check, so two sessions could reach for the same issue and each believe it
-was theirs. This page replaces the paste with a *request*: a desired role, an
-issue or PR, and a stated intent, answered by an authorization decision and —
-on confirmation — an exclusive assignment from the allocator.
-
-| Concern | Module |
-|---------|--------|
-| Request model, preview, initiation | `webui/request_service.py` |
-| Form and preview rendering | `webui/request_views.py` |
-| Authorization | `webui/console_authz.py` (`initiate_workflow`) |
-| Audit | `webui/console_audit.py` |
-| Ownership substrate | `allocator_service.py` + `control_plane_db.py` |
-
-## Surfaces
-
-| Path | Method | Purpose |
-|------|--------|---------|
-| `/requests` | GET | Request form |
-| `/requests` | POST | Render an intent preview. **Never assigns.** |
-| `/api/v1/requests/preview` | POST | Intent preview as JSON |
-| `/api/v1/requests/apply` | POST | Initiate — confirmed, audited, allocator-owned |
-
-The HTML form has no initiate button on purpose. Initiating requires a
-confirmed POST to `/api/v1/requests/apply`, so a stray form submission cannot
-reserve work as a side effect.
-
-## The request
-
-```json
-{
-  "desired_role": "author",
-  "work_kind": "issue",
-  "work_number": 643,
-  "intent_summary": "implement request preview and initiation",
-  "remote": "prgs",
-  "org": "Scaled-Tech-Consulting",
-  "repo": "Gitea-Tools",
-  "expected_head_sha": null
-}
-```
-
-`desired_role` is one of `author`, `reviewer`, `merger`, `reconciler`,
-`controller`. `work_kind` is `issue` or `pr`. `remote`/`org`/`repo` default to
-the first project in the registry when omitted; when neither the request nor
-the registry resolves them, the request is rejected rather than pointed at some
-other repository. `intent_summary` is required — it is what the audit record
-states as the reason — and is truncated to 500 characters.
-
-Parsing rejects rather than corrects. An unknown role, an unknown work kind, a
-non-positive number, or a missing intent each return `400` with a `reason_code`
-and the offending `field`.
-
-## Preview
-
-Five checks, each with its own verdict, reason code, and detail:
-
-| Check | Passes when |
-|-------|-------------|
-| `authorization` | The console principal holds `operator` or above |
-| `capability` | The desired role maps to a declared profile and MCP namespace |
-| `lease_availability` | No active claim holds the work unit |
-| `next_safe_action` | The allocator would independently select this exact work unit |
-| `head_pin` | PR work resolves to a head SHA, and a supplied SHA still matches |
-
-A preview also returns the role's `allowed_actions` and `prohibited_actions`
-(from `allocator_service.ROLE_ACTIONS`), the `required_profile` and
-`required_namespace` the work must run under, and a `correlation_id` that ties
-the preview to its audit record and to any assignment that follows.
-
-Preview is read-only in the strict sense: it calls the allocator with
-`apply=false` and writes nothing but an audit line. An unauthorized principal
-never reaches the allocator or the control-plane DB at all, so a denial cannot
-be used to enumerate the queue.
-
-## Initiation
-
-`POST /api/v1/requests/apply` refuses in this order, and every refusal returns
-before any assignment is attempted:
-
-| Condition | Outcome | Status |
-|-----------|---------|--------|
-| Unparseable request | `invalid_request` | 400 |
-| Not authorized, or execution not wired | `denied` | 403 |
-| `confirm` not set | `denied` / `confirmation_required` | 409 |
-| Work unit already claimed | `blocked` / `duplicate_assignment` | 409 |
-| Allocator would select other work | `wait` / `not_next_safe_work` | 409 |
-| Allocator declines on apply | `blocked` or `wait` | 409 |
-| Evidence unavailable | `wait` / `evidence_unavailable` | 503 |
-| Assigned | `assigned_work` | 201 |
-
-A success returns the assignment plus a `handoff` block naming the profile, the
-namespace, and the actions that stay forbidden — enough for the operator to
-continue in the right MCP namespace without guessing.
-
-### Why apply runs the allocator twice
-
-The allocator is the only source of exclusive ownership (#600 / #613), and it
-selects work; it does not take orders. So `apply` runs a dry-run first and
-proceeds only when the allocator would independently pick the requested work
-unit. If it would not, the request reports `wait` and mutates nothing.
-
-A request is therefore a *confirmation* of the allocator's decision, never an
-override of it. The apply call carries the dry-run's
-`candidate_set_fingerprint` as a CAS pin (#776), so a queue that changed
-between the two calls fails closed rather than assigning against a stale view.
-The result is checked again on the way out: an assignment naming a different
-work unit is not read as success.
-
-### Fail-closed defaults
-
-- An unreadable control-plane DB denies. It is never treated as "nothing holds
-  this work unit".
-- An incomplete queue inventory denies (#758). Ranking a partial candidate set
-  can select the wrong work.
-- An allocator that raises denies.
-- PR work with no resolvable head SHA denies; a supplied SHA that no longer
-  matches denies with `head_moved`.
-
-## Enabling initiation
-
-Execution is wired off. Set `WEBUI_REQUESTS_EXECUTION=1` to enable it for the
-`initiate_workflow` action only — see
-[`webui-authz-audit.md`](webui-authz-audit.md) for why this is an
-action-scoped flag rather than a phase bump. With the variable unset, `apply`
-returns `403` with `reason_code: unauthorized` no matter who asks.
-
-Enabling execution does **not** enable approvals or merges. Those are phase 3
-console actions and remain forbidden in every path here; the console reserves
-work and hands off, and the MCP role profile enforces what that role may then
-do.
-
-## Audit
-
-Every preview and every apply emits a console audit record (schema in
-[`webui-authz-audit.md`](webui-authz-audit.md)):
-
-| Event | `result` |
-|-------|----------|
-| Preview | `previewed` |
-| Refusal at any stage | `denied` |
-| Assignment created | `succeeded` |
-
-`correlation.request_id` carries the request's `correlation_id`, and a
-successful record's `metadata` carries `assignment_id` and `lease_id`, so an
-assignment can be traced back to the intent that produced it. The operator's
-`intent_summary` travels in `metadata` and passes through the standard
-redaction pass before persistence like every other field.
-
-## Non-goals
-
-- No browser-initiated approve or merge, in this phase or any other.
-- No bypass of allocator exclusive ownership; no self-selection of work.
-- No auto-start from raw monitoring incidents (#612 stays downstream).
