Merge branch 'master' into issue-718-fix-merger-lease

Reviewed-on: #679
Reviewed-by: sysadmin <[email protected]>

Operator break-glass merge of PR #679 authorized because the native MCP
gitea_adopt_merger_pr_lease path returned non-retryable internal_error
despite an authoritative active reviewer lease. PR #679 was formally
approved by Review #446 at exact head
78cc37a977 and was conflict-free and
mergeable. No LLM received credentials or used a direct API/CLI fallback.

+- **Status:** Accepted (policy effective immediately for LLM sessions; tooling may lag)

+  - Allocator / control-plane ADR: `docs/architecture/mcp-allocator-control-plane-observability-adr.md` (#613 / PR #614)
+
+## 1. Context
+
+The Gitea MCP server is the **control plane** for real issue/PR mutations (create, comment, lock, review, merge, etc.). When author/reviewer/merger/reconciler sessions kill or restart that process, relaunch it from a feature worktree, or edit the checkout that process loads, operators observe:
+
+- Mid-session identity/preflight resets
+- Stale-runtime vs master parity failures
+- IDE transport EOF / “tool not found” while code on disk has changed
+- Accidental production mutations from experimental code
+
+This ADR separates **stable control runtime** from **dev/test runtime** and defines promotion proof.
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+### 2.1 Stable control runtime
+
+The Gitea MCP server used for **real workflow mutations** is the **stable control runtime**.
+
+Characteristics:
+
+- Loads a known, promoted revision of Gitea-Tools (or the packaged release layout operators designate)
+- Registered in the IDE/client as the production namespaces (`gitea-tools`, `gitea-reviewer`, `gitea-merger`, `gitea-reconciler`, etc.)
+- Holds production profile credentials via sanctioned keychain/env paths only
+
+### 2.2 Dev / test runtime
+
+MCP **server code** development and testing:
+
+- Happens in isolated **`branches/`** worktrees (or other non-stable checkouts)
+- May use a **separate** dev/test MCP runtime/process when process-level testing is required
+- **Must not** be used for real Gitea mutations on production issues/PRs
+
+### 2.3 Forbidden actions (normal sessions)
+
+Normal **author, reviewer, merger, and reconciler** LLM sessions **must not**:
+
+| Forbidden | Why |
+|-----------|-----|
+| Kill the running MCP server process | Drops all concurrent sessions; loses preflight state |
+| Restart / relaunch the MCP server process | Same as kill; causes stale/identity churn mid-workflow |
+| Relaunch MCP from a development worktree | Runs unpromoted code against production mutations |
+| Edit files in the stable runtime checkout | Hot-mutates control plane under concurrent users |
+| Use experimental/dev MCP for real Gitea mutations | Bypasses promotion proof and audit expectations |
+| Bypass or self-reset a stale master-parity gate | The gate is fail-closed; only an operator reload restores parity |
+
+**LLM-allowed vs operator-owned (authoritative split):**
+
+| Actor | May do | Must not do |
+|-------|--------|-------------|
+| **LLM session** | Call tools on the already-running stable namespaces; **client reconnect** after transport EOF (no process kill); pass `worktree_path` / role worktree args; report blockers and stop mutations when unhealthy/stale | Kill, restart, or relaunch any MCP process; bump config mtimes to force reload; edit the stable checkout; switch to a dev MCP for production mutations |
+| **Operator / release-manager** | Supervised restart/reload of the **stable** control runtime; dual-namespace client configuration; §2.4 promotions; incident recovery | — |
+
+EOF / transport recovery for LLM sessions: **client reconnect only** (see `docs/mcp-namespace-eof-recovery.md`). Do not “fix” health by killing PIDs or bumping MCP config mtimes as a normal session procedure.
+
+This ADR **supersedes** any older runbook wording that told the LLM to relaunch or restart the client/MCP as a self-service step. Where `docs/llm-workflow-runbooks.md` (or wiki runbooks) discuss dual-namespace setup or workspace rebind, **process restart/relaunch is operator-owned**; the LLM stops, reports, and waits.
+
+### 2.4 Promotion (operator / release-manager only)
+
+Promotion of a new revision into the stable control runtime is an **explicit operator/release-manager action**, not an LLM self-service step.
+
+A promotion **must record** (issue comment, release note, or promotion ledger):
+
+| Field | Description |
+|-------|-------------|
+| **previous runtime SHA** | Commit previously loaded by stable runtime |
+| **promoted runtime SHA** | Commit after promotion |
+| **source branch/PR** | Where the change was reviewed |
+| **restart/reload method** | How the process was cycled (e.g. supervised restart, client reload) |
+| **health check proof** | Client-namespace probe success (`gitea_whoami` / namespace health) |
+| **identity/profile proof** | Expected profile(s) and username(s) after reload |
+| **workspace/root proof** | Stable checkout path / root matches intended layout |
+| **mutation capability proof** | Required permissions for the target role present; forbidden ops still forbidden |
+| **rollback instructions** | How to restore previous SHA and re-verify health |
+
+Suggested durable marker:
+
+```text
+## MCP STABLE RUNTIME PROMOTION (#615)
+
+Status: COMPLETED | ROLLED_BACK | ABORTED
+Previous-SHA: <full sha>
+Promoted-SHA: <full sha>
+Source-PR: <number>
+Source-Branch: <name>
+Reload-Method: <text>
+Health-Proof: client_namespace whoami OK / assess_mcp_namespace_health OK
+Identity-Proof: profile=<name> user=<name>
+Workspace-Proof: root=<path>
+Mutation-Proof: allowed_ops include <…>; forbidden include <…>
+Rollback: checkout <previous sha>; reload method <…>; re-run health/identity proofs
+Operator: <username>
+Timestamp: <ISO-8601>
+```
+
+### 2.5 Unhealthy stable runtime → stop work
+
+If the stable MCP runtime is **unhealthy**, including any of:
+
+- client-namespace probes fail
+- wrong identity / wrong profile
+- wrong workspace root
+- missing mutation capability for the intended role
+- persistent EOF after **client reconnect**
+- **master parity is stale** (`startup_head` behind on-disk `master` / `restart_required` from the parity gate)
+
+then:
+
+1. **Normal PR / review / merge / issue-mutation work must stop immediately.**
+2. The session **reports** the unhealthy/stale state (tool error, CTH, or operator handoff) with startup vs current head when known.
+3. Do **not** improvise: no LLM process kill/restart, no dev-worktree MCP for production mutations, no env escape hatches, no manual gate bypass.
+4. Resume only after:
+   - an **operator** restores the runtime (see §2.6 for routine post-merge parity reload), **or**
+   - a **controlled** promotion/rollback completes with the §2.4 promotion record, **or**
+   - a controller invokes the narrow **bootstrap review path** (#557) when the defect is self-hosted and documented,
+   - **and** the session re-verifies health (and master parity when applicable) before the next mutation.
+
+### 2.6 Routine post-merge master-parity staleness (operator reload, not promotion)
+
+**Symptom:** After merges land on `master`, a long-lived stable MCP process still runs the pre-merge `startup_head`. The master-parity gate marks the server **stale** / `restart_required` and **blocks mutations**.
+
+**Sanctioned response (authoritative):**
+
+| Step | Actor | Action |
+|------|-------|--------|
+| 1 | LLM session | Mutations stop immediately when the gate reports stale. |
+| 2 | LLM session | Report the stale state (startup head, current master head, that operator reload is required). Do not retry mutations. |
+| 3 | **Operator** | Reload/restart the **stable** control MCP so it loads current `master` (supervised client/daemon reload). |
+| 4 | LLM session | Resume only after startup/current-head parity is verified (e.g. `gitea_get_runtime_context` / parity assessment shows in parity). |
+
+**Not a §2.4 promotion:** Catching the already-designated stable control checkout up to a newly advanced `master` is a **routine operator reload** of the stable runtime. It does **not** require the nine-field promotion ledger. Use §2.4 only when **changing which unpromoted/dev revision** becomes the stable control runtime (new source branch/PR into the stable designation).
+
+**Code note:** `master_parity_gate.py` may still say “restart the server” in machine-facing reason strings. That string names the **operator recovery action**, not an LLM self-service instruction. This ADR and the runbooks define the actor split.
+
+## 3. Relationship to other controls
+
+| Doc / mechanism | Interaction |
+|-----------------|-------------|
+| Namespace health (#543) | Proves IDE client can call tools; does not authorize restart |
+| EOF recovery | Reconnect only; no process kill |
+| Daemon import guard (#558) | Mutations require sanctioned daemon; not a bare shell import |
+| Bootstrap path (#557) | Only controller-authorized exception when live runtime cannot review its own fix |
+| Allocator / control-plane ADR | Coordination DB is separate; still depends on a healthy MCP surface for Gitea writes |
+
+## 4. Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- Predictable control plane for concurrent LLMs
+- Clear operator-only promotion gate with rollback
+- Aligns session behavior with health/EOF docs already landed
+
+### Costs
+
+- LLM sessions must wait when runtime is sick (no DIY restart)
+- Operators must maintain promotion discipline and dual-runtime config if they use a dev MCP
+
+### Non-goals
+
+- Does not ban operator-supervised restarts during incidents
+- Does not replace CI or code review for MCP changes
+- Does not authorize editing stable checkout “because tests need a quick fix”
+
+## 5. Implementation follow-ups (optional tooling)
+
+These may land in later issues; the **policy binds sessions now**:
+
+1. Session preflight that refuses mutations if workspace root equals a `branches/` feature worktree configured as “dev only.”
+2. Explicit `runtime_kind=stable|dev` in MCP config and `gitea_whoami` profile metadata.
+3. Promotion checklist script that emits the durable promotion marker fields.
+
+**Not optional (issue #615 acceptance criterion 2):** operator guide and runbooks **must** cross-link this ADR (see §6). Cross-links are documentation acceptance, not deferred tooling.
+
+## 6. Acceptance for this ADR
+
+1. Document merged under `docs/architecture/mcp-stable-control-runtime-policy-adr.md`.
+2. **Operator guide / runbooks cross-link this ADR** (`docs/wiki/Operator-Guide.md`, `docs/wiki/Runbooks.md`, `docs/llm-workflow-runbooks.md`).
+3. Issue #615 references this path.
+4. LLM/operator runbooks treat kill/restart/relaunch-from-worktree as **LLM violations**; process restart is **operator-owned**.
+5. Unhealthy runtime (including **stale master parity**) stops normal mutation work until operator restore/reload, promotion/rollback, or #557 bootstrap — then re-verify parity before mutating.
+6. Routine post-merge parity reload is documented as operator reload (§2.6), not an LLM self-restart and not a full §2.4 promotion.
+
+## 7. Document history
+
+| Date | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| 2026-07-09 | Initial ADR: stable vs dev runtime, forbidden session actions, promotion proof fields, stop-work rule |
+| 2026-07-16 | Review 443 remediation (#615 / PR #616): mandatory cross-links; LLM vs operator restart split; routine post-merge parity staleness (§2.6); stale parity in §2.5 unhealthy triggers |

-  "allowed_repositories": ["Scaled-Tech-Consulting/Gitea-Tools"]

-It is an **authorization boundary, not the session binding**. The binding is

-
-1. The session repository is derived from the **verified, workspace-aligned git
-   remote** — never from a caller-supplied `org`/`repo` argument, and never from
-   the `REMOTES` table (whose entries are default *targets*: `prgs` defaults to
-   `Timesheet`, which is not this project).
-2. That workspace-derived slug is validated against `allowed_repositories`.
-3. The session binds immutably to that one canonical `owner/repository`. The
-   organization is derived from the slug; there is no independent,
-   caller-controlled organization value.
-4. If a profile authorizes several repositories, the verified workspace still
-   selects exactly one. A session never binds to the whole list and never
-   switches between entries.
-
-Fail-closed rules:
-
-- Activation is rejected when the workspace repository is absent from the
-  allowlist.
-- A mutation is rejected when no verified workspace repository can be
-  established.
-- A tool-level `org`/`repo` override that disagrees with the binding is rejected
-  before the mutation runs.
-- A mutation request can never establish, complete, or replace the binding.
-
-The field is **config-only**: no environment variable can widen or forge it. It
-is optional — a profile that omits it keeps the previous behaviour, so existing
-static-profile namespaces stay functional until an operator provisions the
-scope. Provisioning it is what activates enforcement for that profile.

+### Operational runbook: grant reconciler `gitea.branch.delete` (#687)
+
+Merging a code PR that updates `migrate_profiles.py` / `reconciler_profile.py`
+**does not** change the live operator profile on disk. Apply the profile
+change deliberately, then reconnect the client-managed namespace.
+
+1. **Approved migration / profile-update command** (from the repo root, using
+   the project venv if present):
+
+   ```bash
+   # Dry-run first (default): validates v2 output, writes nothing
+   python3 migrate_profiles.py -i ~/.config/gitea-tools/profiles.json
+
+   # Apply: creates backup then writes migrated v2 config
+   python3 migrate_profiles.py -i ~/.config/gitea-tools/profiles.json -w
+   # Optional explicit paths:
+   # python3 migrate_profiles.py -i ~/.config/gitea-tools/profiles.json \
+   #   -o ~/.config/gitea-tools/profiles.json \
+   #   --backup ~/.config/gitea-tools/profiles.json.bak -w
+   ```
+
+   If the live file is already v2, edit the reconciler identity’s
+   `allowed_operations` / `forbidden_operations` under
+   `environments.<env>.services.gitea.identities.reconciler` (or the
+   `prgs-reconciler` alias target) so allowed includes the canonical set
+   below — then re-validate with a load of the config (see step 3).
+
+2. **Inspect the generated (or edited) profile** — confirm the reconciler
+   identity, for example:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 - <<'PY'
+   import json
+   from pathlib import Path
+   cfg = json.loads(Path.home().joinpath(".config/gitea-tools/profiles.json").read_text())
+   # v2 environments shape:
+   ident = cfg["environments"]["prgs"]["services"]["gitea"]["identities"]["reconciler"]
+   print("role:", ident.get("role"))
+   print("allowed:", ident.get("allowed_operations"))
+   print("forbidden:", ident.get("forbidden_operations"))
+   PY
+   ```
+
+3. **Validate canonical operation names and least privilege**
+
+   Expected canonical **allowed** (defaults after migration):
+
+   - `gitea.read`
+   - `gitea.pr.close` (required)
+   - `gitea.pr.comment`
+   - `gitea.issue.comment`
+   - `gitea.issue.close`
+   - `gitea.branch.delete` (recommended; cleanup only)
+
+   Expected **forbidden** includes at least: `gitea.pr.approve`,
+   `gitea.pr.merge`, `gitea.pr.review`, `gitea.pr.create`,
+   `gitea.branch.push`, `gitea.repo.commit`.
+
+   No shorthand (`pr.close`, `issue.close`, `pr.comment`) may remain.
+   Validate with the production loader:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 - <<'PY'
+   import gitea_config, reconciler_profile
+   from pathlib import Path
+   path = str(Path.home() / ".config/gitea-tools/profiles.json")
+   gitea_config.load_config(path)  # fails closed on invalid config
+   # Or assess the reconciler lists directly after extracting them:
+   # print(reconciler_profile.assess_reconciler_profile(allowed, forbidden))
+   PY
+   ```
+
+4. **Merging PR #688 (or any code PR) does not update the live profile.**
+   Code changes only the migration helper, schema, docs, and tests. The
+   operator must still run `migrate_profiles.py -w` or an equivalent
+   authorized edit of `~/.config/gitea-tools/profiles.json`.
+
+5. **Supported apply method:** `python3 migrate_profiles.py … -w` (backup
+   created automatically) **or** operator-authorized edit of the live
+   profiles file after backup. Unsupported: silent mtime tricks, manual
+   process kill to “reload”, or undocumented env overrides.
+
+6. **Backup and validation:** `-w` copies the input to
+   `<input_path>.bak` (or `--backup PATH`) before writing. Re-run
+   `load_config` / `assess_reconciler_profile` after write. Keep the
+   `.bak` until live whoami/capability checks pass.
+
+7. **Client-managed namespace reconnect/reload:** reconnect or reload the
+   IDE MCP client so `gitea-reconciler` restarts from current `master` and
+   the updated `GITEA_MCP_PROFILE=prgs-reconciler` config. Do not hand-launch
+   `mcp_server.py` / `gitea_mcp_server.py` with ad hoc `GITEA_*` env
+   (see #686 / #630).
+
+8. **Live reverification** (through the client-managed `gitea-reconciler`
+   namespace only):
+
+   - `gitea_whoami` → identity + profile `prgs-reconciler`
+   - `gitea_assess_master_parity` → `stale=false`, `restart_required=false`
+   - `gitea_resolve_task_capability(task="cleanup_merged_pr_branch")` →
+     `allowed_in_current_session=true` only when permission and role match
+   - `gitea_resolve_task_capability(task="delete_branch")` →
+     **not** allowed for reconciler (role denial must be enforced)
+
+9. **Guarded cleanup usage** (example for a merged PR whose source branch
+   remains on the remote):
+
+   ```text
+   gitea_cleanup_merged_pr_branch(
+     pr_number=<N>,
+     branch=<exact PR head branch>,
+     confirmation="CLEANUP MERGED PR <N> BRANCH <exact PR head branch>",
+     remote="prgs",
+     org="Scaled-Tech-Consulting",
+     repo="Gitea-Tools",
+     worktree_path="<path under branches/>",
+   )
+   ```
+
+   The tool refuses unmerged PRs, protected branches, preservation/evidence
+   branches, open-PR heads, mismatched branch names, and wrong confirmation.
+
+10. **Prohibitions**
+
+    - No raw `git push --delete`, `git branch -d` / `-D`, or delete refspecs
+    - No arbitrary `gitea_delete_branch` from reconciler
+    - No unsupported profile switching mid-run without full re-preflight
+    - No ad hoc hand-edits of live profiles **unless** operator-authorized,
+      backed up, and revalidated as above
+
+Canonical migrated reconciler example:
+
+```json
+{
+  "role": "reconciler",
+  "allowed_operations": [
+    "gitea.read",

+# Self-hosted Sentry observability for the Gitea MCP server (#606)
+
+Optional, **off-by-default** instrumentation that reports MCP runtime errors,
+fail-closed workflow blockers, lease / terminal-lock / stale-runtime
+collisions, and recurring watchdog check-ins to a **self-hosted** Sentry at
+`https://sentry.prgs.cc/`.
+
+> **Gitea remains the source of truth.** Sentry is observe-only. It never
+> approves, merges, closes, or otherwise mutates Gitea workflow state, and it
+> never bypasses leases, #332, workflow roles, or the MCP gates. Sentry alerts
+> may only feed the *sanctioned* Gitea issue/comment path via the #612 incident
+> bridge — never a direct write.
+
+Implemented by [`sentry_observability.py`](../../sentry_observability.py).
+
+---
+
+## 1. Create the Sentry project
+
+1. Sign in to the self-hosted Sentry at **`https://sentry.prgs.cc/`** (this is
+   **not** Sentry Cloud — do not use `*.ingest.sentry.io`).
+2. Create a new **Python** project named **`gitea-tools-mcp`**.
+3. Open **Settings → Projects → gitea-tools-mcp → Client Keys (DSN)** and copy
+   the DSN. It looks like `https://<publickey>@sentry.prgs.cc/<project-id>`.
+4. **Never commit the DSN.** It is a runtime secret supplied via env var only.
+
+## 2. Configure the environment
+
+All configuration is env-var driven (see [`.env.example`](../../.env.example)):
+
+| Variable | Purpose | Default |
+|----------|---------|---------|
+| `MCP_SENTRY_ENABLED` | Master gate (`1/true/yes/on`). Required. | off |
+| `SENTRY_DSN` | Self-hosted DSN. Required. | *(empty)* |
+| `SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT` | `local` / `dev` / `prod` tag. | `development` |
+| `SENTRY_RELEASE` | Release id (git SHA or version). | *(none)* |
+| `MCP_SENTRY_TRACES_SAMPLE_RATE` | Perf-trace sample rate `0.0–1.0` (clamped). | `0.0` |
+| `MCP_SENTRY_ENABLE_LOGS` | Forward Python logs as structured logs. | off |
+
+**The feature stays completely off unless `MCP_SENTRY_ENABLED` is truthy *and*
+`SENTRY_DSN` is non-empty.** With either missing, `init_sentry()` is a no-op,
+the SDK is never initialised, and no events are sent — existing tool behaviour
+and API-call patterns are unchanged.
+
+### Per-environment examples
+
+```bash
+# local (quiet: capture errors/blockers, no traces)
+export MCP_SENTRY_ENABLED=1
+export SENTRY_DSN="https://<key>@sentry.prgs.cc/<id>"
+export SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT=local
+
+# dev (light tracing + logs)
+export MCP_SENTRY_ENABLED=1
+export SENTRY_DSN="https://<key>@sentry.prgs.cc/<id>"
+export SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT=dev
+export MCP_SENTRY_TRACES_SAMPLE_RATE=0.2
+export MCP_SENTRY_ENABLE_LOGS=1
+
+# prod (errors/blockers + low-rate tracing, release-tagged)
+export MCP_SENTRY_ENABLED=1
+export SENTRY_DSN="https://<key>@sentry.prgs.cc/<id>"
+export SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT=prod
+export SENTRY_RELEASE="$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)"
+export MCP_SENTRY_TRACES_SAMPLE_RATE=0.05
+```
+
+The optional SDK is pinned in [`requirements.txt`](../../requirements.txt)
+(`sentry-sdk==2.20.0`). It is imported lazily: if the package is absent, the
+module still imports and every entry point is a safe no-op.
+
+## 3. What is instrumented
+
+| Signal | Where | Notes |
+|--------|-------|-------|
+| Startup init | `gitea_mcp_server.py` `__main__`, before `mcp.run` | Prints a redaction-safe status line to stderr. |
+| Failing mutations (exceptions) | `_audited(...)` context manager | `capture_exception` with scrubbed tags. |
+| Fail-closed blockers / failed mutations | `_audit_pr_result(...)` (BLOCKED/FAILED) | Structured `capture_workflow_blocker` event incl. the canonical next action when available (criterion 7). |
+| Allocator watchdog check-ins | `gitea_allocate_next_work` tool | `allocator_health`, `stale_lease_scan`, `terminal_lock_scan`. |
+| Namespace-health check-in | `gitea_assess_mcp_namespace_health` tool | `namespace_health`. |
+
+All capture paths are **best-effort / fail open**: a Sentry outage or capture
+error never breaks an MCP tool success path.
+
+## 4. Cron / watchdog monitors
+
+`sentry_observability.MONITOR_SLUGS` defines stable check-in slugs:
+
+| Registry key | Sentry monitor slug | Wired at |
+|--------------|--------------------|----------|
+| `stale_lease_scan` | `gitea-mcp-stale-lease-scan` | allocator run (global lease expiry) |
+| `terminal_lock_scan` | `gitea-mcp-terminal-lock-scan` | allocator run (terminal-lock lookup) |
+| `allocator_health` | `gitea-mcp-allocator-health` | allocator run |
+| `namespace_health` | `gitea-mcp-namespace-health` | namespace-health probe |
+| `dashboard_freshness` | `gitea-mcp-dashboard-freshness` | call `monitor_checkin("dashboard_freshness", ...)` from the dashboard refresh job (#605) |
+| `reconciler_cleanup` | `gitea-mcp-reconciler-cleanup` | call `monitor_checkin("reconciler_cleanup", ...)` from the reconciler cleanup entrypoint |
+
+Create matching Cron monitors in Sentry with those slugs. Emit an
+`in_progress` check-in at job start and `ok`/`error` at completion via
+`sentry_observability.monitor_checkin(slug_key, status)`.
+
+## 5. Redaction guarantees (fail closed)
+
+Redaction fails *closed*: if a field cannot be proven safe it is dropped rather
+than sent. The `before_send` (and `before_send_log`) hook `scrub_event`
+recursively redacts every outgoing event; on any error it drops the event
+entirely. Guarantees, proven by `tests/test_sentry_observability.py`:
+
+- **No** tokens, passwords, keychain IDs, DSNs, cookies, or `user:pass@host`.
+- **No** raw session-state or full prompt/comment bodies — `session_id` is only
+  ever surfaced as a 12-char `session_id_hash`.
+- **No** private config contents or raw credential headers.
+- **No** full local filesystem paths — a worktree path collapses to a coarse
+  `worktree_category` (`author` / `reviewer` / `merger` / `reconciler` /
+  `branches` / `root` / `other`).
+- Only the allowlisted tag keys in `ALLOWED_TAG_KEYS` are ever attached.
+
+## 6. Coexistence with GlitchTip / the #612 incident bridge
+
+This is the **outbound** path (MCP → Sentry SDK). It complements — it does not
+replace — the **inbound** [`incident_bridge.py`](../../incident_bridge.py)
+(#612), which turns Sentry/GlitchTip *observations* into durable Gitea issues
+and `incident_links` rows.
+
+- Prefer **one** observability path per environment. Point the MCP server's
+  `SENTRY_DSN` at the same self-hosted `gitea-tools-mcp` project that the #612
+  bridge reconciles from, so an MCP-reported error and its Gitea issue line up.
+- GlitchTip is Sentry-protocol compatible; if an existing GlitchTip DSN is in
+  use, either migrate it to `https://sentry.prgs.cc/` or document the split
+  (MCP → Sentry, legacy → GlitchTip) explicitly for operators.
+- The bridge remains the **only** sanctioned route from an alert back into
+  Gitea workflow state.
+
+## 7. Non-goals
+
+- Sentry must **not** become the workflow source of truth.
+- Sentry must **not** approve, merge, close, or mutate Gitea workflow state.
+- Sentry must **not** bypass leases, #332, workflow roles, or the MCP gates.

+"""MCP tool-boundary error mapping for known Gitea client failures (#699).
+
+Known authentication / authorization / network / configuration failures leave
+the tool boundary as a sanitized structured ``CallToolResult`` with
+``isError=True``. Stdio transport remains connected.
+
+Design constraints (reviewer-ratified, #699 / PR #701):
+
+1. **No secret material** in tool results or daemon logs. Messages are fixed
+   constants keyed by ``reason_code``; HTTP bodies / exception text never
+   surface. Sanitization failure fails closed to ``internal_error``.
+2. **Narrow boundary** wraps the original FastMCP ``Tool.run`` success path;
+   re-raises framework control-flow exceptions (``UrlElicitationRequiredError``);
+   maps only typed client failures. Installation is idempotent.
+3. **No RuntimeError substring heuristics.** Only explicit typed
+   authentication / authorization / network / configuration exceptions
+   receive those labels.
+4. **HTTP classification** lives in ``gitea_auth.classify_http_status``;
+   every 403 is authorization-class.

+"""Optional self-hosted Sentry observability for the Gitea MCP server (#606).
+
+Adds env-var-gated Sentry SDK instrumentation so 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/`` — never Sentry Cloud, and never as the workflow
+source of truth (Gitea stays canonical).
+
+Design constraints (mirror ``gitea_audit`` and the #612 incident bridge):
+
+- **Off by default.** With ``MCP_SENTRY_ENABLED`` false/unset *or* ``SENTRY_DSN``
+  empty, ``init_sentry`` is a no-op and no events are ever sent — existing tool
+  behaviour and API-call patterns are unchanged (acceptance criterion 1).
+- **Fail *open* for observability.** A Sentry outage, a missing ``sentry_sdk``
+  package, or any capture error must never break an MCP tool success path. Every
+  public entry point swallows its own exceptions.
+- **Fail *closed* for redaction.** If a field cannot be proven safe it is dropped
+  rather than sent. Tokens, passwords, keychain IDs, DSNs, private config, raw
+  session-state, full prompt bodies, and full filesystem paths never leave here.
+- **No hard dependency.** ``sentry_sdk`` is imported lazily; the module is fully
+  importable and testable without it installed.
+
+Sentry is observe-only: it must not approve, merge, close, or otherwise mutate
+Gitea workflow state, nor bypass leases, #332, or MCP gates. Alerts may only feed
+the sanctioned Gitea issue/comment path via the #612 incident bridge.

+"""Invariant tests pinning task_capability_map role assignments (#722/#723).
+
+Added with the operator-authorized break-glass repair for incident #722:
+commit 970e68b remapped ten reviewer tasks to ``role="merger"`` while every
+configured merger profile forbids the review permissions, so no configured
+profile could resolve any formal review task (``matching_configured_profile``
+was empty repository-wide). These tests fail loudly if that class of
+regression recurs:
+
+- every role-exclusive formal-review task must be satisfiable by at least one
+  canonical role profile (permission AND role together);
+- the capability map must agree with ``role_session_router`` task sets;
+- ``adopt_merger_pr_lease`` stays merger-only (the legitimate hunk of
+  970e68b, preserved by the repair);
+- merger profiles must not be able to resolve review_pr/approve_pr.
