Merge branch 'master' into feat/issue-648-notifications-console

B1: classify_attention_event uses structured flags/category only — never
substring-match human-authored title/summary for escalation.

B2: make notification ids unique across probe_errors and collisions
(include loop index / kind).

B3: do not assign probe_errors to fetch_error (avoids false Fetch Warning
and double-reporting).

Regression tests cover all three blockers.

+# Web Console: Notifications & Human-Attention Routing (#648)
+
+- **Status:** Phase 3 Live
+- **Tracking Issue:** [#648](https://gitea.prgs.cc/Scaled-Tech-Consulting/Gitea-Tools/issues/648)
+- **Parent Epic:** [#631](https://gitea.prgs.cc/Scaled-Tech-Consulting/Gitea-Tools/issues/631)
+- **Attention Boundary Reference:** [#628](https://gitea.prgs.cc/Scaled-Tech-Consulting/Gitea-Tools/issues/628)
+
+---
+
+## 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.
+
+---
+
+## 2. API Endpoints
+
+### `GET /api/v1/notifications`
+*Compatibility Alias:* `GET /api/notifications`
+
+#### Query Parameters:
+- `project_id` (optional): Filter notifications by project ID.
+- `attention_class` (optional): `inbox` (default: human-required + operator), `human-required`, `operator`, `routine`, `all`.
+
+#### Example JSON Response:
+```json
+{
+  "project_id": "gitea-tools",
+  "repo_label": "Scaled-Tech-Consulting/Gitea-Tools",
+  "human_required_count": 0,
+  "operator_count": 2,
+  "routine_count": 5,
+  "total_count": 7,

+      "requires_human": false,
+      "extra": {}
+    }
+  ],
+  "all_items": [...]
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. UI Navigation
+
+- Access via the **Traffic** navigation menu: **Traffic → Notifications**.
+- The main view displays:
+  - **Metrics Summary Bar**: Highlighting counts for Human Required, Operator Inbox, and Routine items.
+  - **Attention Filter Tabs**: Toggle between Inbox (Human + Operator), Human Required, Operator, Routine, and All.
+  - **Structured Event Table**: Displays category, title, summary, work item links, and timestamps.
