Errand agents are spawned in the errand's git worktree (managed by
SimpleGitWorktreeManager), not in agent-workdirs/<alias>/.
sendUserMessage was deriving the cwd from worktreeId which pointed to
the non-existent agent-workdirs path. Now the errand.sendMessage
procedure resolves the actual worktree path and passes it through.
When spawn() receives an explicit cwd (errands), the manager was still
creating a standalone worktree at agent-workdirs/<alias>/ and injecting
its path into the workspace layout prompt. The agent then edited files
in the wrong directory — on a different branch than the errand's.
Now when cwd is provided, we skip worktree creation entirely and use
the caller's cwd for workspace layout, .cw/output/, and all paths.
Claude CLI occasionally hangs after writing signal.json but never exits.
Add an optional signal check to pollForCompletion: after a 60s grace
period, check signal.json every 30s. If a valid completion signal is
found while the process is still alive, SIGTERM it and proceed to
normal completion handling.
Previously, branch computation errors and ensureBranch failures were
silently swallowed for all tasks, allowing execution agents to spawn
without proper git isolation. This caused alert-pony to commit directly
to main instead of its task branch.
- manager.ts: Verify each project worktree subdirectory exists after
createProjectWorktrees; throw if any are missing. Convert passive
cwdVerified log to a hard guard.
- dispatch/manager.ts: Make branch computation and ensureBranch errors
fatal for execution tasks (execute, verify, merge, review) while
keeping them non-fatal for planning tasks.
Replace SESSION_STARTUP (full test suite run) and CONTEXT_MANAGEMENT
(progress file refs) with a minimal startup block (pwd, git status,
CLAUDE.md). Add skipPromptExtras option to SpawnAgentOptions to skip
inter-agent communication and preview deployment instructions. Conflict
agents now go straight to the resolution protocol — one post-resolution
test run instead of two.
Implements three primitives needed before errand tRPC procedures can be wired up:
- agentManager.sendUserMessage(agentId, message): resumes an errand agent with a
raw user message, bypassing the conversations table and conversationResumeLocks.
Throws on missing agent, invalid status, or absent sessionId.
- writeErrandManifest(options): writes .cw/input/errand.md (YAML frontmatter),
.cw/input/manifest.json (errandId/agentId/agentName/mode, no files/contextFiles),
and .cw/expected-pwd.txt to an agent workdir.
- buildErrandPrompt(description): minimal prompt for errand agents; exported from
prompts/errand.ts and re-exported from prompts/index.ts.
Also fixes a pre-existing TypeScript error in lifecycle/controller.test.ts (missing
backoffMs property in RetryPolicy mock introduced by a concurrent agent commit).

The `getAgentPrompt` tRPC procedure previously read exclusively from
`.cw/agent-logs/<name>/PROMPT.md`. Once the cleanup-manager removes
that directory, the prompt is gone forever.
Adds a `prompt` text column to the `agents` table and writes the fully
assembled prompt (including workspace layout, inter-agent comms, and
preview sections) to the DB in the same `repository.update()` call
that saves pid/outputFilePath after spawn.
`getAgentPrompt` now reads from DB first (`agent.prompt`) and falls
back to the filesystem only for agents spawned before this change.

Passes EventBus through LifecycleFactory and AgentLifecycleController so that
when an account is marked exhausted, an agent:account_switched event is emitted
with the previous and new account IDs.

Two additional fixes to prevent agents from writing .cw/output/ in the
wrong location:
1. Always create .cw/output/ at the agent workdir root during spawn,
even when no inputContext is provided. This gives the agent a visible
anchor directory so it doesn't create one inside a project subdir.
2. Add absolute output path instruction to the workspace layout prompt
for multi-project agents, explicitly telling them to write .cw/output/
relative to the workdir root, not their current cd location.
Conflict-resolution agents (and any initiative-based agent) can write
.cw/output/signal.json inside a project subdirectory (e.g.
agent-workdirs/<name>/codewalk-district/.cw/output/) rather than the
parent agent workdir. This caused two failures:
1. spawnInternal wrote spawn-diagnostic.json before registering the
agent in activeAgents and starting pollForCompletion. If the .cw/
directory didn't exist (no inputContext provided), the write threw
ENOENT, orphaning the running process with no completion monitoring.
2. resolveAgentCwd in cleanup-manager and output-handler only probed
for a workspace/ subdirectory (standalone agents) but not project
subdirectories, so reconciliation and completion handling couldn't
find signal.json and marked the agent as crashed.
Fixes:
- Move activeAgents registration and pollForCompletion setup before
the diagnostic write; make the write non-fatal with mkdir -p
- Add project subdirectory probing to resolveAgentCwd in both
cleanup-manager.ts and output-handler.ts
Adds exitCode to AgentInfo type and propagates it through all toAgentInfo()
implementations. Enhances getAgent to also return taskName and initiativeName
from their respective repositories. Adds two new filesystem-reading tRPC
procedures for the Agent Details tab: getAgentInputFiles (reads .cw/input/
files with binary detection, 500 KB cap, sorted) and getAgentPrompt (reads
.cw/agent-logs/<name>/PROMPT.md with 1 MB cap and structured ENOENT handling).

Prevents two bugs in the resumeForCommit flow:
1. Agent navigated to main repo instead of worktree due to relative paths
in commit prompt — now uses absolute paths from getDirtyWorktreePaths
2. git add -A staged unrelated files (screenshots, other agents' work) —
now uses git add -u to only stage tracked modified files
- Track worktree removal success in autoCleanupAfterCompletion() instead of
always returning removed:true when removeAgentWorktrees() throws
- Add removeAgentBranches() call to auto-cleanup path (agent/* branches were
never cleaned after completion)
- Add filesystem cleanup (worktrees, branches, logs) to dismiss() to prevent
resource leaks until next server restart
commitRetryCount was being deleted in cleanupAgentState(), which runs
before tryAutoCleanup() checks the count. This reset the counter to 0
on every cycle, making MAX_COMMIT_RETRIES=1 dead code. Agents would
retry commits forever.
Move commitRetryCount cleanup to stop()/delete() only, letting
tryAutoCleanup() manage it during the retry lifecycle.
Removes blocking readFileSync, writeFileSync, and mkdirSync calls from the
agent spawn hot path, replacing them with async fs/promises equivalents to
avoid stalling the Node.js event loop during credential operations.
writeInputFiles, spawnDetached, and diagnostic writes now use
fs/promises (mkdir, writeFile) instead of mkdirSync/writeFileSync.
File writes in writeInputFiles are batched with Promise.all.
openSync/closeSync for child process stdio FDs remain sync as
spawn() requires the FDs immediately.
Introduces a chat loop where users send instructions to an agent that
applies changes (create/update/delete phases, tasks, pages) and stays
alive for follow-up messages. Includes schema + migration, repository
layer, chat prompt, file-io action field extension, output handler chat
mode, revert support for deletes, tRPC procedures, events, frontend
slide-over UI with inline changeset display and revert, and docs.
Planning modes (plan, refine) get a minimal block with just cw ask
syntax. Execution modes get the full protocol: commands table, shell
recipe for listener lifecycle, targeting guidance, when/when-not
decision criteria, good/bad examples, and answering guidelines.
Move src/ → apps/server/ and packages/web/ → apps/web/ to adopt
standard monorepo conventions (apps/ for runnable apps, packages/
for reusable libraries). Update all config files, shared package
imports, test fixtures, and documentation to reflect new paths.
Key fixes:
- Update workspace config to ["apps/*", "packages/*"]
- Update tsconfig.json rootDir/include for apps/server/
- Add apps/web/** to vitest exclude list
- Update drizzle.config.ts schema path
- Fix ensure-schema.ts migration path detection (3 levels up in dev,
2 levels up in dist)
- Fix tests/integration/cli-server.test.ts import paths
- Update packages/shared imports to apps/server/ paths
- Update all docs/ files with new paths
