Merge-workspace review of PR #43 (codex R1-R4, claude R1/R2).
- R1: envfile.parse raises EnvFileError when the file exists but cannot be
read or decoded as a whole; `--shell` prints the cause and exits 1, so the
wrapper stops (rc 1, as before #26) instead of running on defaults, and
mqtt_common's entry points stop on the same error. A bad single line is
still a warning. The wrapper's message no longer claims a read failure
when the cause is elsewhere ("cannot load ... see the line above").
- R2: lib.sh mam_int spells out the ASCII blanks and digits instead of
[[:space:]]/[0-9], which follow the locale: U+2003 30 U+2003 was 30 in the
wrapper and invalid in the runner under en_US.UTF-8. The test oracle
_expected uses the same ASCII rule.
- R3: an integer flag given explicitly with an empty value is refused like
any other invalid value; only an absent flag keeps its default.
- R4: a line holding a NUL byte is skipped with a warning by both loaders;
before, the wrapper read "leftright" and the Python loader died.
- .mam.env.example states the format: no expansion, `export` and bash's own
variables skipped, a trailing `# ...` is part of the value, the environment
wins, an unreadable file is an error.
Tests: unreadable (0000) and invalid-UTF-8 files stop the wrapper and the
Python loader; a NUL line is skipped by both; Unicode blanks/digits are
invalid for mam_int, _positive_int, the wrapper and the runner under C and
en_US.UTF-8; explicit empty values for the five integer flags are refused.
All of them fail on b58edac.

R1 (P1): a quoted export still ran code when the key was a bash special
variable (RANDOM=a[$(cmd)] is evaluated arithmetically on assignment).
envfile.RESERVED (bash's own variables, plus BASH_/COMP_/READLINE_
prefixes) is skipped with a line-numbered warning by both loaders; a test
keeps it covering every variable a clean bash defines. The wrapper also
hands SCRIPT_DIR/REPO_ROOT/TARGET_ENV to the parser as environment, so the
file cannot replace the variables it has already set.
R2 (P2): SKS_QUIESCENT_TRIES reached `for ((i < tries))` through a function
argument; it is normalised at the call site (minimum 0). B5 now requires
every integer-looking env default in the shell code to be normalised or
listed in NOT_ARITHMETIC with where it goes, and exercises _pane_quiescent.
R3 (P2): _positive_int strips leading zeros and rejects more than nine
significant digits before int(), like mam_int; 5000-digit inputs no longer
raise in the runner.

bash read MAM_JOB_TIMEOUT_S=0700 as octal 448 (and failed on 0900) while
the loop runner read 700. One rule now, with a per-knob minimum:
lib.sh mam_int / mam_int_knob and runner._positive_int (blanks allowed,
digits only, decimal, min <= n <= 999999999).
- minimum 1: MAM_JOB_TIMEOUT_S, MAM_HEARTBEAT_SEC, MAM_HEARTBEAT_MISSES,
MAM_ACK_TIMEOUT_S (invalid env: warning + default) and the wrapper's
--timeout/--idle-timeout/--heartbeat/--heartbeat-misses/--ack-timeout
(invalid: rc 1); the runner's job_budget, --job-timeout, contract_args.
- minimum 0 (0 = check once): MAM_INJECT_ACK_GRACE_S,
delegate_wait_started's ack_s, SKS_DIALOG_TIMEOUT, SKS_BUSY_TIMEOUT,
SKS_DELIVERY_GRACE_S.
- tests/test_issue26_ints.py: INT_KNOBS is the one table of minimums; a
static guard keeps env defaults out of arithmetic and checks each
normalised knob against it.

- lib_py/delegation/envfile.py (stdlib only) holds the one set of rules:
comments and blank lines skipped, key and value stripped, one matching
quote pair removed, no shell interpretation, keys must match
^[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*$ (bad or `=`-less lines warn with the line
number, never the value).
- mqtt_common._parse_env_file delegates to envfile.apply.
- The delegate-job wrapper runs envfile.py --shell by path and evals the
shlex-quoted exports; values never reach a command line. The environment
now wins over the file in both loaders.
- .mam.env.example: commented assignments no longer use $HOME, which the
parser keeps literally.
The shell parsed the env file in one place only (wrapper :38), not three.

grok N1: the wrapper spent up to 5 s on a TERM budget before it finalized the
job, so when the watcher swallowed the TERM the silent job's close came ~5 s
late and a `completed` written in that gap won (test_issue14 idle-grace).
codex D1: `_notify` blocks on a publish for up to 120 s, and the prompt went
out right after it; a completed, a re-dispatch or an unreadable record in that
window still got the nudge. codex D2: the wrapper pid was checked only at the
loop head, so a watcher whose wrapper vanished during a wait could still
notify and nudge once.
- multi-agent-mux-delegate-job `stop_stall_watch`: KILL + wait, no budget.
The watcher holds nothing to flush (its TERM handler is a bare os._exit),
and KILL cannot be swallowed.
- lib_py/stall_watch.py: `_wrapper_gone()` after every wait (before any
notice) and at the loop head; `_may_prompt()` right before the keys - the
wrapper is alive and the record, read then, is open and this dispatch;
`_dispatch_open(strict=True)` treats an unreadable record as "no".
- SKILL.md: the lifetime contract states the one-wait lag and that nothing is
sent after the wrapper is seen gone.
- tests/test_issue30_stall_watch_stop.py: the stop returns at once against a
TERM-ignoring stand-in (took 6 s on the round-2 code); completed,
re-dispatch and a torn record during the notice publish withhold the nudge;
a wrapper gone during the wait gets no notice and no nudge. All five fail
on the round-2 code.

Round-1 review of PR #41 (claude N1, codex R1/R2).
N1 - the wrapper stopped its stall watcher with `kill` followed by an
unbounded `wait`. A TERM that lands in the watcher's fork-exec window is
swallowed (bash defers terminating signals in the forked child until the
exec), the watcher then installs its own handler and lives until the job
closes, and the wrapper hung until someone killed the watcher by hand
(reproduced twice in test_issue14's ack test; the wrapper trace stops at
`kill` + `wait`).
R1 - a wrapper that is itself terminated left the watcher orphaned.
R2 - a `completed` or a re-dispatch that landed during a blocking herdr
wait (up to 60 s) was still followed by the idle notice and the nudge.
- multi-agent-mux-delegate-job: `stop_stall_watch` sends TERM, polls up
to 5 s, then KILLs and reports "ignored TERM; killed"; `start_stall_watch`
passes `--watch-pid $$`.
- lib_py/stall_watch.py: `--watch-pid` (rc 0 once that pid is gone, checked
between herdr calls); `_dispatch_open()` re-reads the record after every
wait and right before the nudge - terminal status, another dispatch token
or attempt, or a missing record ends the run without a notice; a refused
`stalled:idle` publish withholds the nudge (`_notify` returns False).
- delegate-job SKILL.md: the watcher's lifetime contract; exit-code rows 2
and 3 name the idle clock and the wall-clock label; "before v4.7.5" ->
v4.8.0 (M5, NB2).
- tests/test_issue30_stall_watch.py (M8): the module-wide Linux mark is
narrowed to S6 (/proc); r4's stub stamps time.time() so its cross-process
comparison holds on macOS too (47 passed, 1 skipped here).
- tests/test_issue30_stall_watch_stop.py (new, macOS and Linux): the stop
routine against a TERM-ignoring stand-in returns in 4-12 s; the wrapper
returns (rc 3) with a TERM-ignoring watcher shim; `--watch-pid` ends the
watcher; a TERM to the real wrapper leaves no watcher; a job completed or
re-dispatched during the wait is not nudged; a refused notice withholds
the nudge. Every one of them hangs or fails on the round-1 code.
Not in this commit (follow-ups): M7 test hook in product code (no adapter
is unreliable, a seam is needed), M9/B3 public-broker latency (on this host
even `started` sometimes never reaches the subscriber), the leading-zero
budget parse (NB1) and M1/M2/M4/M6 go on the #17 item 4 list.

- job_subscriber.py returns only named codes (RC_COMPLETED 0, RC_ERROR 1,
RC_NO_EVENT 2, RC_BROKER_UNAVAILABLE 3, RC_WALL_CLOCK 4). The wrapper
mirrors them as SUB_RC_* and compares subscriber codes only by name; a test
keeps the mirror equal to the Python constants and forbids numeric
comparisons of $sub_rc/$sub_exit and numeric `return` in the subscriber.
- `delegate-job wait` passed the subscriber's code straight through, so a
spent budget would have reached its callers as 4; it is 2 again (B7 fails
without the mapping).
- tier1 G-8 gave both clocks 0.5 s and raced; the wall clock now runs out
first by construction (idle 30 s) and the test asserts RC_WALL_CLOCK.
Other subscriber rc asserts use the names.

- input_region: in the prompt-line shape the input box starts only at a
column-0 prompt (codex indents a draft's continuation lines), and the
prompt and the (whole-line) placeholder are stripped from the box's first
non-blank line only, so `› Explain this terminal prompt:\n ›` is not empty.
- test_r4 runs with S=40 again: the defective code nudged ~30 s after a
missed transition, which S=10 could not tell from the fixed ~10 s.
Both new checks fail against the defective versions (stall_watch.py at
47e4274 -> 30.24 s < 40; input_region.py at bf0f5c1 -> nudge sent) and pass
now, each with its passing twin.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- R1 (P1): without rules the input region runs from the last prompt line to
the end of the pane; only a last line matching the adapter's footer pattern
(codex: ` <model> · ~/<cwd> · …`) is dropped, so a draft on a second line
keeps the nudge withheld.
- R2: while the synchronous submit runs, a relay thread finds the job it
registers (same session, created since the submit) and prints its
stalled:/stall_watch: notices; before, they appeared only after the job.
- R3: the broker-unavailable disk wait that runs into the deadline is the wall
clock: wall_clock_timeout (caller rc stays 3).
- R4: a state_change_seq change seen right before the judgement restarts the
idle window (decision 9: S seconds of continuous idle).
Regression tests are the reviewer's reproductions, each with its passing
twin; the wrapper-level #30 tests now use this environment's broker instead
of the #18 harness's public default.

lib_py/stall_watch.py runs beside the wrapper's subscriber for a local herdr
job (started after delivery, stopped when the subscriber ends; MAM_STALL_WATCH=0
turns it off). It follows `herdr agent wait` transitions and publishes only
`progress` events through one publisher; it has no path that closes a job.
- blocked: `stalled:blocked <detection line>` once per episode, never answered.
- idle for MAM_STALL_IDLE_S (600) with no background descendants of the agent
pid (pane process-info + /proc; adapter resident_children and the heartbeat
timer excluded) and an empty input box: `stalled:idle` and one nudge.
- input box judged from adapter facts measured on herdr 0.9.1 (codex '›',
grok frame '│', opencode '┃' block + stop pattern); the whole-pane fallback
is gone. No facts: withheld + `stall_watch:input_check_unavailable` once;
never empty for 3 x S: `stall_watch:input_never_empty` once.
- herdr failures are not "no event": warning + `stall_watch:herdr_unavailable:
<code>` (or agent_not_found), backoff, rc 2 after MAM_STALL_HERDR_FAIL_S
(120); the wrapper prints the watcher's last lines.
- remote and human jobs are skipped with one log line.
- agent_status_reliable is an adapter field; false turns idle judgement off.
- the loop runner relays stalled:/stall_watch: notices once each.
- scoped_env drops a pane-inherited workspace scope for name lookups (#34 rule).
The module sits at the top of lib_py: delegation and loop may not import the
agent adapters (their sibling-import rules). Idle pane captures of the five
CLIs are fixtures; the mock herdr answers process-info in the real shape.

- wrapper: TIMEOUT falls back to MAM_JOB_TIMEOUT_S (--timeout > env > 3600);
an invalid value warns and keeps 3600.
- loop: --job-timeout <sec> (run_loop.sh passes it on; refused in the legacy
shell loop). The runner always hands the wrapper --timeout, so the budget
the wrapper registers is the one its wait caps come from.
- runner: wait_for_job and the MAM_CHILD_WAIT_S default are budget + 300 s
(MAM_WAIT_GRACE_S), today's 3900 with no option; an explicit
MAM_CHILD_WAIT_S still wins.
- subscriber: the wall-clock budget returns 4 (RC_WALL_CLOCK), silence keeps
2 (RC_NO_EVENT). The wrapper maps both to caller rc 2 and labels the close
from the rc: wall_clock_timeout vs deadline_timeout; the disk-heartbeat
grace that ends on the deadline is the wall clock too.
- registry close accepts wall_clock_timeout (engine: -> error); the remote
runner's deadline and command-timeout details lead with wall_clock_timeout;
the sub-job table files it CLOSED-UNCONFIRMED (first token, colon stripped).
Test expectations changed only where the contract changed: the loop's
contract_args now starts with --timeout, the subscriber's exit-code docstring
names rc 2/4, and the registry --help capture lists the new close kind.

Issue #34: the loop waits for the creator job's sub-jobs, reviewers get

remote.py closes a job whose end it could not see with
`error --detail "deadline_timeout (remote runner)"`; the sub-job table
matched the reason exactly and filed it as a plain failure, losing the
unconfirmed count and the late-write warning (merge review, codex R2).
The kind is the first word of the reason now. Test T14 replays the
remote runner's close through the real registry and producer; it fails
without the fix.

- registry.get_feedback only returned the detail of the last completed or
error event, so a sub-job the wrapper cancelled before injection
(target_not_found, session_busy) reached the review table as a bare
`cancelled` and its reason was lost (merge review, grok N1). get_feedback
takes the event kinds to read (default unchanged); the table asks for
cancelled too and shows NOT-DISPATCHED with the reason. Test T13, both
reasons, fails without the fix.
- the [귀속되지 않은 열린 잡] line listed jobs registered without
--parent-job but gave the reviewer no rule for them - the one case the
table cannot show (claude K1). A rule sentence follows the line whenever
such a job exists; without one the prompt is unchanged. T6 pins it.

Without --worktree/--base the guard fingerprinted the source on every
loop, so a loop whose source holds untracked files that change on every
job voided each round: test_tier4_e2e scenario 5 keeps the mock herdr's
state file (rewritten on each herdr call) in its repository and failed
with rc 1 on 3fdbb62 (passed on 7a4a0c2). A loop without sub-delegation
now behaves as before (issue #34 requirement 3); with sub-jobs the guard
protects against a deadline-closed sub-job still writing.

round_roots was replaced by the correction job, so an implementation
job's open or failed sub-job vanished from the next review and the loop
could pass (planner-reviewer-codex-01, P2). The run's creator jobs now
accumulate; each wait still covers only the new job's tree, so the wait
cap is not paid again per round. T9 covers open / error / completed.

- runner._run_cmd: the write of the prompt file was outside the cleanup
and error handling that the exec had (merge review: claude H1, codex R1).
A failed write now removes the partial file and returns the same 126
failed submit an unstartable wrapper does, so the loop ends with rc 1
and no traceback. Test S4c.
- test S9 required the literal "File too large" in stderr; bash 3.2 on
macOS prints nothing for EFBIG, so the whole suite failed on this host
(agy, grok, codex R2). The contract asserted everywhere is rc != 0, no
leftover file and the portable diagnostic line; the libc wording is
checked on Linux only.

The two remaining exec points that carried a prompt as one argv string
(capped at 131,072 bytes):
- run_loop.sh (MAM_LOOP_PY=0): delegate_job_safe, which all eleven shell
delegations go through, turns `--prompt <text>` into `--prompt-file` under
the control root's .mam/ and removes the file once the wrapper returns. Its
failure lines go to stderr: callers capture stdout, and under set -e a
failed submit ends the loop at that line with the wrapper's code, so the
cause was being swallowed.
- lib.sh delegate_submit_job and its legacy twin (create_session's onboarding
and --submit-job): the prompt is written under .mam/ and handed on as
--prompt-file; lib_py.delegation.cli submit accepts --prompt-file and
forwards it to the registry. --prompt keeps working everywhere.
S6/S6b push a 140,000-byte prompt through the CLI and both helpers; S7 runs
the real run_loop.sh with a 140,000-byte plan and a 150,000-byte diff; S7b
fixes a nonzero exit when the implementation or compliance job cannot be
registered. All six fail on 14d11bf.

Review of f5cadd9 (planner-reviewer-codex-01, R1): the compliance job's
registration failure was only logged, so a passing next round ended the
real loop process with rc 0. Compliance now returns 1 when it cannot be
registered or does not finish, as the correction step already does.
Re-adjudication and arbitration also return 1 when their job cannot be
registered; a registered job that yields no verdict keeps the designed
fail-closed fallback.
S4c (stubbed delegate_job, a fixture whose later rounds never pass) is
replaced by S3c: a real `python -m lib_py.loop` process whose wrapper runs
an executable that simulates the agents, refusing the compliance,
re-adjudication or arbitration registration while the next round passes.

delegate_job writes the prompt to a temp file under the control root's .mam/
and hands the wrapper --prompt-file; the file is removed once the wrapper
returns. An OSError from starting the wrapper becomes a failed submit (rc 126)
that the existing error branch logs, so the session-busy retry no longer
dereferences a missing result. A retry that yields no job id, and a
compliance job that cannot be registered, are now logged instead of silent.
The collector caps are documented as the size of the evidence a reviewer is
shown; delivery has no cap of its own any more. The loop skill notes that a
pipeline hides the loop's exit code.

One argv string is capped at MAX_ARG_STRLEN (131,072 bytes on Linux), so a
prompt passed as --prompt could not reach the registry once it carried a
large diff. submit now takes --prompt-file and passes the same path to
`registry.py register --prompt-file`; the loop type's per-iteration update
goes by file too. --prompt keeps working unchanged.

Review round 4 (planner-reviewer-claude-01 B-1, planner-reviewer-codex-01
P2, reached independently): dispatch_verified is a boolean. It says the
subscriber's token check ran when the record was written, but names no
dispatch, the token being masked by the audit redactor and attempt_id not
written. events.ndjson is appended to across a job's attempts, so a started
verified under attempt 1 satisfied every later attempt's wait - the very
misattribution R1 forbids, alive on the remote path while the local path
(data.dispatch_token in events.log) was already immune. codex reproduced it
with the real signed producer, the real _Watcher, the real audit writer and
the real operator re-dispatch; both waits answered 0 where 1 was due, even
when attempt 2's subscriber had correctly dropped attempt 1's replayed packet.
The subscriber now writes dispatch_fingerprint = SHA-256 of the token it
verified, and attempt_id for readers. With a token demanded, the predicate
accepts an audit record only if it is dispatch_verified AND its fingerprint
equals SHA-256 of that token; a record with no fingerprint - written before
the field existed - names nothing and is rejected on that path. Without a
token, any received started counts, as before.
Fingerprint over attempt_id as the identity, weighing the two proposals: the
local path already compares the token, so hashing it keeps one identity axis
for both sources; the token is a uuid4 nonce (registry.py:141), 128 bits, so
its SHA-256 is not recoverable and it is a CAS fence rather than the HMAC
secret in the first place; and attempt_id cannot tell apart a token
re-minted within one attempt, where the token can. attempt_id is recorded
because it is cheap and readable, not relied on.
W7 pins codex's five cases end to end - current dispatch accepted, an old
attempt's record rejected after a real re-dispatch, still rejected when the
stale packet is replayed and dropped, the new dispatch's own started
accepted, a bad HMAC never recorded - with create's wait and the wrapper's
wait required to agree on each. W8 pins the fail-closed legacy record and
the untokened compatibility path. W5 gains the no-fingerprint and
other-dispatch cases; W6 checks the real _Watcher writes the fingerprint and
never the token. S7e's status reset had no reason left and is gone. codex's
own reproduction file, unmodified, passes 5/5 against this tree.

Review round 3 (planner-reviewer-codex-01, reviewer-opencode-01): R1 blocking,
R2 and the "ONE builder" wording non-blocking. All three reproduced; none
rebutted.
R1. _wait_started still returned 0 as soon as the record left `pending`,
ahead of the shared predicate, so `error`, `cancelled` and another dispatch's
`running` all acknowledged an injection that create's delegate_wait_started
rejects - the two contracts the ack-finding brief said must not diverge. Both
reviewers reproduced it with the real producer and no record manipulation;
my S7n had hidden it by resetting the record to `pending`.
The bypass and the console grep are gone. The wrapper's evidence is now
delegate_started_recorded alone, the same call create makes. For a remote
agent - no shared disk, so no line in events.log - the predicate reads the
subscriber's audit record of the `started` it received. That record is
attributable by construction: the subscriber verifies the HMAC and drops any
event whose data.dispatch_token differs from the job's expected token before
it writes anything. The token itself cannot go into the record (the audit
redactor masks token-named keys), so the subscriber now stamps a boolean
dispatch_verified, and with a token demanded only a verified record counts;
an untokened legacy record fails closed. The registry status is never
evidence; a terminal job is preserved by the terminal logic, not turned into
an acknowledgement.
Tests: W1/W2/W3 are the reviewers' three negatives and the positive, real
producer, record left exactly as it produced it; W4 runs create's wait and
the wrapper's wait side by side on all four and requires the same answer;
W5 pins the remote route (a verified record counts, an unverified or
non-started one does not); W6 drives the real _Watcher and shows it stamps
the flag on a matching started and records nothing for a mismatch; S7n no
longer resets the record. test_issue14's "registry ack over unconfirmed
inject" produced its ack with a bare status flip - the very bypass - and now
produces it the way an agent does, publish_event with the dispatch token;
its scenario and every other assertion are unchanged. test_issue18's remote
e2e accepted the status messages and now expects the shared one.
R2. _code_only blanked a docstring's whole line range, so code sharing that
line - `"""doc"""; call()` - vanished from the scan. It now removes only the
docstring node from the AST and unparses the rest (comments drop out with
it, code strings stay); test_g9b pins the four same-line shapes.
The builder comment claimed one builder for create and the wrapper; the
wrapper keeps _pub_cmd and S7l pins the two equal argument-for-argument. The
comment now says that.

The live trial of this branch found the cross-server verdict inert on this
host: _herdr_call_is_cross_server read the caller's server from HERDR_SESSION,
and herdr 0.8.2 does not export that variable to a pane of the default server
- the orchestrator's usual home, and exactly the pane the #23 leak comes from.
Every call was judged "not crossing", the three ids were never dropped, and
all four trial onboardings ended "no started within 180s". My own pane sits in
a named server and does carry HERDR_SESSION, which is how the assumption got
past me.
HERDR_SOCKET_PATH is exported to every pane and its layout names the server:
.../.config/herdr/herdr.sock is the default server and
.../.config/herdr/sessions/<name>/herdr.sock a named one - the convention
`herdr session list --json` reports and the shim already uses to find a named
server's socket. _herdr_caller_server prefers HERDR_SESSION when a herdr does
export it, otherwise reads the socket's shape (suffix-matched, not $HOME-
anchored), and yields "" for anything unrecognised so an exported scope is
respected rather than guessed away. The rest of the rule is unchanged from
3bcaa39: a `default` or empty target is the ambient server, no caller server
means no pane, caller == target is the same server. watcher.caller_server
applies the same rule for the loop's own herdr calls.
Reproduced against the live server in the trial's exact env: 10a678c answers
"NOT crossing / has-session NOT FOUND"; this commit answers "caller server
default / crossing / FOUND". S1c pins that env end to end with the recorder
asserting the ids never reach herdr; S1d-S1h pin the verdict, the named-socket
same-server and cross-server cases, HERDR_SESSION precedence, and the
unrecognised layout. The 3bcaa39 tests are unchanged and still pass.

handle_startup_dialogs was a claude-only string ladder called only when
AGENT=claude, and wait_for_tui_ready does not treat a dialog screen as ready.
So agy, grok and codex sat on their directory-trust prompt for the full
readiness timeout, the session was recorded as tui-ready-timeout, and
onboarding injection was disabled (create_session.sh:313-314) - a human had to
accept each dialog by hand.
The signatures and accept keys move to the adapters as `startup_dialogs`
(pattern, keys, kind), published through the existing `facts` eval contract as
MAM_STARTUP_DIALOGS. claude's ladder moves over verbatim; agy takes Enter, grok
y, codex Enter, and codex's update notice takes 2 (Skip), which blocks a start
just as hard while changing nothing. kind is `trust` or `notice`:
--no-auto-trust leaves trust dialogs to a human and still answers notices,
since trusting a directory makes codex load its project-local config, hooks and
exec policy.
Re-sending is gated by time (MAM_DIALOG_RESEND_S, default 5s), not by frames.
#24's comment reports that `--source visible` keeps showing an accepted dialog
for a while, and _pane_capture hardcodes that source, so "still on screen" is
not evidence the keys were missed; acceptance is judged by the ready tokens
alone.
Two existing tests asserted the old shape and are updated, not weakened:
b19's "Escape branch stays" now looks for it in claude's adapter, and c1b's
"Enter once per iteration" becomes "never twice for one frame", which the
cooldown satisfies strictly more tightly.

A MAM script often runs inside one herdr server's pane (the orchestrator's)
while targeting another (the isolated MAM server). The pane exports
HERDR_WORKSPACE_ID, HERDR_PANE_ID and HERDR_TAB_ID, and those ids only mean
something on the server that issued them. They reached the scope filters as a
foreign workspace, whose fail-closed miss (ISSUE-3 / F-2b) reports a live
session as absent: has-session, kill-session, agent prompt and the delegate-job
preflight all answered "no such session". Reproduced on Linux and macOS in the
#23 comments, worked around until now with `env -u` at every call site.
mam_herdr drops the three ids for a call aimed at a named server other than the
caller's own. Scope then falls back to .mam/herdr_workspace_id and finally to
server-global, which is what _herdr_ws_scope already does. `default` is not a
crossing: it is the sentinel for "pass no session flag", so herdr answers on
the ambient server, which for a caller in a pane is that caller's own. A caller
outside any pane keeps an exported scope, so H-18/H-21/H-23 keep their meaning.
The fix lives in mam_herdr, not in the shim heredoc: that heredoc is
materialised into $WORKSPACE_ROOT/.mam/shim/herdr, one file shared by every
checkout bound to a control plane and rewritten on every herdr call, so editing
it would put unreviewed code in the control root and let two checkouts
overwrite each other. S11 fixes that invariant.
lib_py/loop/watcher.py builds its own herdr argv and is the one path that does
not go through mam_herdr, so it applies the same rule via scoped_env.

Issue #25: a promoted plan is reused only with --plan-file; the implicit
newest-plan load is gone in both runners, and an empty planner report no
longer passes silently. VERSIONS.md carries the entry; the four merge-side
review reports and their identity sidecars (base 6fc9194 -> head 1e82651,
evidence review-tree) are archived under .agents/reports/<session>/.

Review R1/N1 (reviewer-grok-01, planner-reviewer-codex-01), reproduced before
fixing. The usage line and SKILL.md both promise "relative to the control
root", but parse_args did Path(...).expanduser().resolve(), which is relative
to the caller's cwd. The runner never chdirs to workspace_root, so the two are
routinely different - the documented recipe runs the loop from the control root
while the source root is a worktree.
Two ways it went wrong: a plan that exists only under the control root was not
found at all (exit 1), and a same-named file in the caller's cwd was loaded
instead, quietly putting an unrelated plan into the first implementation
prompt. That second one is the very failure #25 is about, reintroduced through
the option meant to replace it.
Resolve against workspace_root the way jobs_dir already does (Issue #21 R2);
pathlib's `/` leaves an absolute or expanded-home path untouched. Every earlier
test passed an absolute tmp_path, which is why none of them caught this: P3c
covers both failure modes with the control root away from the caller's cwd, and
P3d pins that absolute and ~ paths are not rewritten.

The --plan-file check landed on the one path a human is watching. The three
--plan-mode loads read a report written by another agent with nobody watching,
and had no content check at all: find_report only tests that the path exists.
An empty or whitespace-only report therefore blanked current_plan in silence.
Phase 2's `if self.current_plan` then flipped the prompt to self-planning and
the run finished rc 0, having paid for a planner job, a Creator challenge and a
refine job and thrown the result away. The escalation refine was worse: it has
no guard, so the correction prompt asserted "follow the updated plan below" and
carried nothing.
All four loads share _plan_text() now - a plan is a readable regular file with
text in it - and each caller says what None means. An empty initial plan stops
the run instead of demoting it, and an empty refine warns and keeps the plan it
already has, which is still good. Those two together leave the escalation
prompt unable to claim a plan it does not carry, so it needs no new branch.
Found by the Creator's challenge to the plan (job 0f63ac1d), sustained by the
Planner as revision 1.

Without --plan, Phase 1 resolved a planner session automatically and globbed
<workspace_root>/.agents/reports/<planner>/plan-*.md for the newest file by
mtime, handing it to the Creator as "the plan already agreed on". Both keys are
wrong: the report directory belongs to a session, not to this task, so other
issues' plans pile up in it, and right after a clone or checkout mtime is
checkout order. 47 such plans are committed in this repository, so an ordinary
run could silently implement against an unrelated design.
Reuse is explicit now. --plan-file <path> is the only way to load an existing
plan; it is resolved against the control root, checked before a single job
exists, and refused if the file is missing, not a regular file, unreadable or
empty (an empty file would quietly turn into a "no plan" prompt). It cannot be
combined with --plan, and --review-only warns and ignores it because no
implementation job is delegated there. The implementation prompt itself is
unchanged, so the Creator's contract does not move.
Phase 1 now says which plan it loaded and where from, or that it loaded none.
The legacy shell loop (MAM_LOOP_PY=0) loses the same auto-load and rejects
--plan-file rather than duplicating the check on a path that is on its way out.

- worktree_prepare.sh installs the same files deploy/install.sh does
(.agents/skills/multi-agent-mux-delegate-job/requirements.txt: paho-mqtt,
PyYAML) plus requirements*.txt. Without paho the loop wrapper, stop_session
and the subscriber tests fail in the worktree - seen as 4 suite failures
in a worktree without its own venv, all passing with one.
- review D1: a failed pip install removes the venv it half made, so the next
run recreates it instead of reporting VENV=kept (test w1c).
- review D3: the [worktree context] block's uncommitted-changes flag uses
--untracked-files=all like the guards.
- review D2: the create skill doc says the install needs the package index.

R1/R2: `git status --porcelain` honours status.showUntrackedFiles, so a
`no` setting in a submodule (or the worktree) hid untracked files from the
checks that justify worktree_remove.sh's single --force and from the review
snapshot guard (_dirty_submodules), which then approved content it never
captured. All three checks (lib_py/worktree.py, worktree_remove.sh,
runner._dirty_submodules) now pass --untracked-files=all. The source tree's
own snapshot was already safe: `git add -A` ignores that setting.
R3: worktree_prepare.sh no longer links .venv to the control root's. It
creates the worktree's own venv with the control root's interpreter and
installs requirements*.txt; a leftover link is refused (exit 1), a control
root without an interpreter is a warning (VENV=skipped); VENV= is printed.
Tests: w1 (real venv, kept on re-run), w1b (link refused / skipped), w6e
parametrised over the hidden setting for the post-stop recheck, w6e2
(hidden untracked file in the submodule and in the worktree blocks the
removal), l17 untracked-hidden / during-hidden (guard refuses before the
first review; a mid-round hidden file makes the round stale). Each new
case fails without the fix.

The 33 failures on the Linux / Python 3.14 host (#28) were environment
dependencies, not regressions; each test is worth keeping, so fix the
dependency instead of deleting the test:
- test_workspace_scope: `source` under `shell=True` ran in dash; run the
command string under bash.
- conftest autouse: MAM_ENV_FILE points at an absent file for every test,
so a workspace .mam.env with a reachable broker no longer breaks the
"broker unavailable" tests (T1-4).
- help-capture guard: compare normalized help text (whitespace collapsed,
"optional arguments"/"options" unified) so argparse re-wrapping across
Python versions is not drift.
- deploy freshness D-11..D-19 and D-22..D-30: skip with a reason when the
nats-docker submodule is not initialized.
- lib_py.agents.base.conversation_in_use and heartbeat._process_table:
`ps -eo pid=,ppid=,args=` (POSIX) instead of the BSD `-axo ... command=`
form, the most likely cause of the 12 purge failures on Linux (the holder
scan returned nothing); to be confirmed on that host.

Active with --worktree/--base only; without them prompts, flow and promotion
are unchanged (a loop_id is recorded in the checkpoint either way).
- Every review round is pinned (B3): the source's HEAD and its working state
as a tree built through a temporary index (the real index/status/refs are
untouched); a dirty state becomes a ref-less snapshot commit on HEAD
(committed as mam-loop, not as the user). An untracked nested repository
cannot be pinned and is refused. identity = (loop_id, base, head, tree).
- Review isolation (B4): a detached review worktree of the snapshot under
TMPDIR (default), or `--review-isolation env` (the source root with env and
temp-dir instructions). Failing to open the tree refuses the round - the
isolation is never lowered silently. Trees are removed after the round and
on any exit (run() wraps the body; release_guard too).
- The reviewers' diff comes from the snapshot (B13):
diff_collect.sh takes an optional head commit for a commit-to-commit diff;
its two-argument form is byte-identical.
- Stale rounds (B7/B8): after the round the source is measured again; if it
changed, the round's approvals are discarded and the next iteration
re-reviews without a correction job (last iteration: rc 1). Only the last
non-stale round's PASSes are promoted.
- Records (B9/B15): review_rounds in the checkpoint with per-reviewer
transport/evidence, and report-<jid>.identity.json next to each promoted
report: evidence review-tree | source-tree | diff-only.
- Pre-promotion re-check (B10): a source changed after approval is not
promoted (rc 1).
- Remote reviewers (B14, Creator challenge 91c81095): they cannot reach this
host's review tree. Checked before anything is delegated: refused by
default; `--remote-review diff-only` admits them with the snapshot SHAs and
diff as their only evidence (no local path in their prompt), and refuses a
round whose diff is truncated or unavailable.
- run_loop.sh accepts both options (usage identical to the runner's); the
legacy shell loop refuses them before the lock.

Both unpushed checks in lib_py/worktree.py - `submodule foreach` over the
initialised checkouts and the direct `--git-dir` walk over the repositories
under the worktree's modules/ - used `HEAD --branches --not --remotes`. A
commit made on a submodule's detached HEAD and kept only by a tag is reachable
from neither, the top-level status stays clean, and worktree_remove.sh then
deleted the repository with its single --force (exit 0).
Both checks now share one rev list, UNPUSHED_REVS = HEAD --exclude=refs/stash
--all --not --remotes: HEAD and every local ref (branches, tags, notes, ...)
minus remote-tracking refs. refs/stash stays out of it because the stash check
(stash list / reflog) owns it, so a stash is reported once, as 'stashes'. As
intended, a local-only note is now protected too. The stash, error, partial
repository and dirty checks are unchanged.
Tests W6l (tag-only commit; initialised submodule and deinit'd repository) and
W6m (annotated tag). The helper header, the stop SKILL.md and the design doc
state the wider rule.

- N1 (planner-reviewer-claude-01) worktree_remove.sh: when `git status` fails
in the worktree (e.g. its directory was deleted), judge_tree returned before
METHOD was set and the summary line died under set -u with exit 1. METHOD
now has its default before the function; the refusal is exit 3 with
"nothing was changed", plus a `git worktree prune` hint when the directory
is gone. Same for --dry-run.
- R4 (planner-reviewer-codex-01) worktree_prepare.sh: a submodule path that is
not initialised yet but already holds files made the clone fail, and the
rollback's `deinit -f` then deleted those files. --submodules now refuses
such a path up front (new exit 3, nothing changed), which also makes the
rollback's premise true: after a failed attempt, everything under a
not-yet-initialised path was created by that attempt.
- R5 (planner-reviewer-codex-01) lib_py/worktree.py: `submodule foreach`
visits initialised checkouts only, but a deinit'd submodule keeps its
repository - stash and unpushed commits included - under the worktree's
modules/, which the forced removal deletes. Every repository under modules/
(nested ones included) is now checked directly (`--git-dir`): commits on no
remote (HEAD included) and refs/stash with its reflog. A directory that looks
like a partial repository cannot be checked and refuses.
- Also: the rollback loops are C-style (`seq 0 -1` counts down on BSD), and
prepare warns that --base is ignored for an existing branch.
Tests W6i (deleted worktree directory, with and without --dry-run), W6j and
W6j2 (stash / unpushed commit in a deinit'd submodule's repository) and W6k
(existing files in an uninitialised submodule path). Skill docs and the design
doc describe the new refusal and the wider repository check.

Review ffb5055e (planner-reviewer-codex-01):
- R1 [P1] worktree_remove.sh: the clean-tree and submodule checks ran only
before --stop, so work a stopping session wrote (or committed, or stashed)
was deleted by the forced removal. The checks are one function now, run
before any change and again right before the removal; any finding then
refuses with exit 3 (sessions already stopped, worktree kept), and the
removal method follows that latest look.
- R2 [P1] lib_py/worktree.py: a submodule stash is reachable from no branch
and leaves the status clean, and the forced removal deletes the worktree's
own submodule repositories. `git stash list` in every submodule is a
separate finding (`stashes`), refused like dirty/unpushed; errors fail
closed as before.
- R3 [P2] worktree_prepare.sh: when one submodule cloned and a later one
failed, the rollback deleted modules/ while the cloned checkout's .git file
still pointed into it, and `git status` failed in the worktree. The rollback
now undoes only this attempt: each submodule whose git dir did not exist
before is deinitialised before its git dir is deleted; submodules
initialised earlier are kept; shared submodule.* config values are restored
exactly (new keys removed, pre-existing values put back - init and deinit
both write .git/config). A final `git status` either confirms a usable
checkout or prints what to inspect.
Tests W6e (a write during stop keeps the worktree and the file), W6f (a
submodule stash refuses), W6g (partial failure on a fresh worktree: usable,
no modules/, no new config, then prepare and a plain removal work) and W6h (a
failing retry keeps the earlier `sm` init and its config value). The skill
docs and the design doc describe the recheck, the stash rule and the scoped
rollback.

root's, /.venv and .pytest_cache/ in the shared info/exclude, submodules only
with --submodules - a failed init removes its own traces (modules/, new
submodule.* keys in the shared config) and exits 1, since git refuses a plain
`worktree remove` once modules/ exists - and an optional creator registered

- worktree_remove.sh (stop skill): every check first, nothing changed on a
refusal (exit 3): linked and not locked, running sessions only with --stop,
no open job of those sessions except the delegate jobs stop cancels, clean
tree including submodules, and inside submodules no modification and no
commit on no remote (HEAD included - submodules sit on a detached HEAD).
Then stop, re-check jobs, and remove: plain, or a single --force when the
worktree holds submodule state.

Review 9a1adb46 (planner-reviewer-codex-01):
- R1 [P1] lib.sh new-session: a forwarded binding reached the agent as
arguments. With env flags the idle-pane branch prefixed `env K=V ...` to
the command that `herdr agent start ... --kind <agent> -- <args>` passes to
the agent executable. An idle pane is now reused only when no environment
has to be set; otherwise the pane is created by pane split / workspace
create, which take --env. The dead `env` prefix code is removed (its
send-text fallback would have typed the same line).
- R2 [P2] runner: a relative MAM_JOBS_DIR is resolved once against the
control root, the way the wrapper (cwd=workspace_root) reads it, and that
absolute dir is used for delegation, wait, report lookup and cleanup.
- R3 [P2] stop: the row's control_plane.delegate_job_logs_dir is restored
(exported unless the caller set DELEGATE_JOB_LOGS_DIR), so the
cancellation history lands in the row's audit-log root.
Tests: T3-1 and T3-3 now assert that the binding arrives as --env on the
pane-creation calls and that no env/K=V token follows `--` in agent start
(fresh and reused pane); T3-4c (audit root on stop) and T2-15 (relative
MAM_JOBS_DIR) are new. The design doc's compatibility table and a create
comment no longer describe the removed idle-pane env path.

A session row now records the control plane it belongs to, and the pane
gets it explicitly instead of relying on env inheritance.
- lib_py/control_plane.py (+ thin lib.sh wrappers mam_control_plane_json /
mam_control_plane_prefix): the binding is WORKSPACE_ROOT,
AGENT_SESSIONS_YAML, MAM_JOBS_DIR, DELEGATE_JOB_LOGS_DIR as absolute paths.
- create: the binding is always persisted on the row (`control_plane`) and
forwarded to the pane only when it differs from what --workspace alone
implies, as leading K=V tokens that lib.sh's new-session already turns into
--env (fresh pane) or `env K=V` (reused idle pane). pane.cmd_full and
start_command stay unprefixed. A binding with whitespace that would have to
be forwarded is refused with exit 2 (lib.sh splits the flags unquoted); the
~/.local/bin wrapper path records the binding but warns it is not forwarded.
- resume: the row's binding wins over the caller's env (a difference is
reported on stderr) and is forwarded again; a legacy row without one uses
the caller's binding and update_yaml_resumed.sh records it.
- stop: registry order MAM_JOBS_DIR > the row's mam_jobs_dir >
$WORKSPACE_ROOT/.mam/jobs > .mam/jobs, exported for delegate_publish_event.
- status: both get_job_status copies look in MAM_JOBS_DIR, the row's
registry and the matching audit logs before the old candidates.
- reconcile: MAM_JOBS_DIR wins in the subscribe heredoc and is passed in.
Tests T3-0..T3-8 (mock herdr: forwarding is verified at the herdr-call level
only; real pane env propagation is left to item 7). T3-7 is a static guard.

- --worktree <path> (CLI over MAM_LOOP_WORKTREE): the source root. Only the
diff, base, head and the empty-set check use it; the wrapper, registry,
checkpoint, loop guard, promotion and cleanup stay on the control root. The
collector is the control root's diff_collect.sh (never the worktree's
unreviewed copy), its arguments shlex-quoted. Validation: an existing
directory, the top of its working tree, the same git common dir as the
control root (".git" is resolved against the directory it came from).
- --base <ref> (CLI only, no env - a stale sha would silently widen the next
range): resolved to a full sha, must be an ancestor of the source HEAD.
- --review-only: requires --base, refuses --plan; Phase 2 is skipped and
logged; correction and comply jobs still go to the creator.
- With --worktree or --base every delegated prompt starts with a context
block (path, branch, base and its origin, head, base..head commit count,
uncommitted changes); without them prompts are byte-identical. All call
sites in run() go through one _dispatch helper.
- Fail-closed guard (only with --worktree/--base): before each review round,
self-review included, an empty change set or one git cannot determine
(exit codes, never output parsing) ends the loop with rc 1 instead of
asking for reviews. This closes the fail-open where a loop started after
an out-of-loop commit sent reviewers "(no changes since base commit)".
- The runner honours MAM_JOBS_DIR and passes --registry-dir to the wrapper.
- run_loop.sh accepts the three options; the legacy shell loop
(MAM_LOOP_PY=0) refuses them before the freeze and the loop lock.
Tests T2-1..T2-14.

Review round 5 (planner-reviewer-codex-01, NOT PASS at 2b1d590):
- F1 bounded lock cycle: the stopper holds the per-job lifecycle lock while
it waits for the timer to exit, and the timer's exit cleanup waited for
that same lock, so every stop ran out the drain and ended in SIGKILL with
a false "did not drain" warning. The exiting timer now tries the lock
without blocking (lifecycle_lock(blocking=False)); when it is busy the
ownership operation holding it removes the pidfile, and when it is free
the own-pid comparison is kept.
- F2 untracked owner: when writing the new timer's pid fails after the
spawn, _spawn_timer_locked kills and reaps that exact process while the
lock is still held and drops only a partial pidfile of that attempt,
then re-raises.
- tests: an idle timer stops well before a 10 s drain without SIGKILL;
a pidfile failure after spawn leaves no survivor, no pidfile and a free
lock (both fail on 2b1d590); a spawn failure leaves nothing behind and
the next start works.
- docs: MESSAGING 2.5 and VERSIONS item 1 describe the lifecycle lock;
VERSIONS test count 31.
