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.
Add 'resolving_conflict' to InitiativeActivityState and detect active
conflict agents (name starts with conflict-) in deriveInitiativeActivity.
Conflict resolution takes priority over pending_review since the agent
is actively working.
- Add resolving_conflict to shared types and activity derivation
- Include conflict agents in listInitiatives agent filter (name + mode)
- Map resolving_conflict to urgent variant with pulse in InitiativeCard
- Add merge: prefix to INITIATIVE_LIST_RULES for merge event routing
- Add spawnConflictResolutionAgent to INVALIDATION_MAP
- Add getActiveConflictAgent to detail page agent: SSE invalidation
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).

Adds an Output/Details tab bar to the agents page right-panel. The Details
tab renders AgentDetailsPanel, which surfaces agent metadata (status, mode,
provider, initiative link, task name, exit code), input files with a
file-picker UI, and the effective prompt text — all streamed via the new
getAgent/getAgentInputFiles/getAgentPrompt tRPC procedures.

- getAgentOutput now returns timestamped chunks ({ content, createdAt }[])
instead of a flat string, preserving DB chunk timestamps
- parseAgentOutput accepts TimestampedChunk[] and propagates timestamps
to each ParsedMessage
- AgentOutputViewer displays HH:MM:SS timestamps on text, tool_call,
system, and session_end messages
- Live subscription chunks get client-side Date.now() timestamps
- Fix horizontal scroll: overflow-x-hidden + break-words on content areas
- AgentLogsTab polls getTaskAgent every 5s until an agent is found,
then stops polling for live subscription to take over
- Fix slide-over layout: details tab scrolls independently, logs tab
fills remaining flex space for proper AgentOutputViewer sizing
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.

Three bugs causing empty phase diffs when server restarts during agent
execution:
1. Startup ordering race: reconcileAfterRestart() emitted agent:stopped
before orchestrator registered listeners — events lost. Moved
reconciliation to after orchestrator.start().
2. Stuck in_progress tasks: recoverDispatchQueues() only re-queued
pending tasks. Added recovery for in_progress tasks whose agents
are dead (not running/waiting_for_input).
3. Branch force-reset destroys work: git branch -f wiped commits when
a second agent was dispatched for the same task. Now checks if the
branch has commits beyond baseBranch before resetting.
Also adds:
- agent:crashed handler with auto-retry (MAX_TASK_RETRIES=3)
- retryCount column on tasks table + migration
- retryCount reset on manual retryBlockedTask()
Pre-merge mergeability check via `git merge-tree --write-tree` (dry-run, no
side effects). When conflicts exist the "Merge & Push" button is disabled and
a ConflictResolutionPanel shows conflict files with options to resolve manually
or spawn a conflict-resolution agent. Agent questions appear inline via
QuestionForm; on completion the mergeability re-checks automatically.
New server-side: MergeabilityResult type, BranchManager.checkMergeability,
conflict-resolution prompt, checkInitiativeMergeability query,
spawnConflictResolutionAgent mutation, getActiveConflictAgent query.
New frontend: useConflictAgent hook, ConflictResolutionPanel component,
mergeability badge + panel integration in InitiativeReview.
Adds a new mutation that accepts an email + raw OAuth token and upserts
the account — creating it if it doesn't exist, updating credentials if
it does. Covers all four scenarios with unit tests (new, existing,
empty-email, empty-token validation).
Snapshots were stale since migration 0008. Generated a schema-derived
snapshot at 0032 so drizzle-kit generate works again (zero diff on
current schema.ts). Also fixed migration 0032 to use statement-breakpoint
separator required by better-sqlite3.
- Added 0032_snapshot.json derived from current schema.ts
- Fixed 0032 SQL to use --> statement-breakpoint between statements
- Updated CLAUDE.md and database-migrations.md with correct workflow
drizzle-kit generate has been broken since migration 0008 (stale snapshots).
The actual workflow is hand-written SQL + manual _journal.json registration.
Updated CLAUDE.md and database-migrations.md to reflect reality and prevent
future migrations from silently failing to apply.
Completed phases showed "No phases pending review" because:
1. Frontend filtered only pending_review phases
2. Server rejected non-pending_review phases
3. After merge, three-dot diff returned empty (merge base moved)
Fix: store pre-merge merge base hash on phase, use it to reconstruct
diffs for completed phases. Frontend now shows both pending_review and
completed phases with read-only mode (Merged badge) for completed ones.
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).

Blocked tasks (from spawn failures) were a dead-end with no way to
recover. Add retryBlockedTask to DispatchManager that resets status
to pending and re-queues, a tRPC mutation that also kicks dispatchNext,
and a Retry button in the task slide-over when status is blocked.
agent:output is high-frequency streaming data that was included in
ALL_EVENT_TYPES and AGENT_EVENT_TYPES, causing every onEvent/onAgentUpdate
SSE subscription to register a listener. With multiple subscriptions per
browser tab plus reconnections, this exceeded the 100 listener limit.
The dedicated onAgentOutput subscription handles output streaming already.
Bonus: stops useLiveUpdates from refetching listAgents on every output chunk.
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
Task-level approval (requiresApproval, mergeRequiresApproval,
pending_approval status) was redundant with executionMode
(yolo vs review_per_phase) and blocked the orchestrator's
phase completion flow. Tasks now complete directly;
phase-level review via executionMode is the right granularity.
Removed: schema columns (left in DB, removed from Drizzle),
TaskPendingApprovalEvent, approveTask/listPendingApprovals
procedures, findPendingApproval repository method, and all
frontend approval UI.
Wrap agentManager.spawn() in try/catch — on failure, block the task
instead of crashing the entire dispatch cycle. Move phase status update
to after branch creation succeeds — on branch failure, block the phase
and skip task queuing. Fix statement-breakpoint markers in migration
0020 to use separate lines.
Containerize Codewalkers with a multi-stage Docker build (Node + Caddy) and
add a seed script that populates the database with a demo initiative, 3 phases,
9 tasks, 3 agents with JSONL log output, a root page, review comments, and a
git repo with real branch diffs for the review tab.
Run project-specific initialization commands (DB migrations, fixture
loading, etc.) automatically after containers are healthy, before the
preview is marked ready. Configured via per-service `seed` arrays in
.cw-preview.yml.
Add a clear "Setting Up Preview Deployments" section with prerequisites,
quick start, multi-service example, config reference table, dev mode
instructions, healthcheck docs, and auto-start explanation. Remove
duplicate config example from the old Configuration section.
Refactor preview deployments to use a single shared Caddy gateway container
with subdomain routing (<previewId>.localhost:<port>) instead of one Caddy
sidecar and one port per preview. Adds dev/preview modes, git worktree
support for branch checkouts, and auto-start on phase:pending_review.
- Add GatewayManager for shared Caddy lifecycle + Caddyfile generation
- Add git worktree helpers for preview mode branch checkouts
- Add dev mode: volume-mount + dev server image instead of build
- Remove per-preview Caddy sidecar and port publishing
- Use shared cw-preview-net Docker network with container name DNS
- Auto-start previews when phase enters pending_review
- Delete unused PreviewPanel.tsx
- Update all tests (40 pass), docs, events, CLI, tRPC, frontend
- Add BranchManager.listCommits() and diffCommit() for commit-level navigation
- Add getPhaseReviewCommits and getCommitDiff tRPC procedures
- New ReviewHeader: consolidated toolbar with phase selector pills, branch info,
stats, integrated preview controls, and approve/reject actions
- New CommitNav: horizontal commit strip with "All changes" + individual commits,
each showing hash, message, and change stats
- Slim down ReviewSidebar: file list only with dimming for out-of-scope files
when viewing a single commit
- ReviewTab orchestrates all pieces in a single bordered card layout
Pipeline phase cards now use the same TaskGraph component from the plan
tab's phase detail panel. This gives tasks a two-line layout with rail
dot, status badge, category badge, priority, and dependency layer
connectors instead of the flat single-line display.
Removes PipelineTaskCard (no longer imported anywhere).
Per-phase Play button now shows for pending phases (with tasks) and
approves before queueing. Top-level Execute button counts both pending
and approved phases, approving pending ones first.
ExecutionOrchestrator now listens for phase:queued and agent:stopped
events to drive the dispatch cycle, closing the gap between queueing
phases (Execute button) and actually spawning agents. Coalesced
scheduling prevents reentrancy with synchronous EventEmitter.
Add findByProjectId to InitiativeRepository using a subquery on the
initiative_projects junction table. Extend the listInitiatives tRPC
procedure to accept an optional projectId filter that composes with
the existing status filter. Add a project dropdown to the initiatives
page alongside the status filter.
The Execution tab's PipelinePhaseGroup was using sortByPriorityAndQueueTime
which ignores task dependencies entirely. Tasks now sort topologically via
topologicalSortPhases, matching the Plan tab's TaskGraph behavior.
- Add listInitiativeTaskDependencies tRPC procedure (bulk fetch)
- Fetch task deps in PipelineTab, group by phase, pass through
- Replace priority sort with topological sort in PipelinePhaseGroup
- Show "blocked by N" count on PipelineTaskCard
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.
