Review of f26952c (codex, job cc849cbf):
- P2: create_session registered the task by file but then pasted the whole
task into the onboarding text, which send_keys_safe hands to `herdr agent
prompt` as one argv string. A 130,500-byte --submit-job was registered
intact and never reached the agent (execve E2BIG). The task now goes into
<jobs>/<id>/brief.md, as the delegate-job wrapper does, and the injected
text names that path. The publish command and its dispatch token (#23) are
unchanged. The other send_keys_safe callers (the wrapper's short pointer,
stop_session's exit key) carry no task text.
- P3: delegate_job_safe's write-failure branch left the partial prompt file
behind and logged to stdout, which callers capture. It now removes the file
and logs to stderr.
S8 (real create_session.sh, 100 and 130,500 bytes, strace when present) and
S9 (the real function, RLIMIT_FSIZE write failure) carry the reviewer's
reproductions over; all three fail on f26952c.

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.

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.

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.
Tests tests/test_issue21_loop_b.py L1-L16 (22).

- --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.

Applies the P0-P3 fixes from the multi-agent-mux-loop audit
(.mam/jobs/ab686e47/claude-reports/report-final.md):
- P0-1: capture BASE_COMMIT before Phase 2 and diff against it, so reviewer
diffs stay non-empty and cumulative even after the Creator commits per the
documented DoD (bare `git diff` alone showed nothing once committed).
- P0-2: has_verdict now matches only the report's last non-blank line, so a
stray [VERDICT: ...] token quoted mid-report as a formatting example can no
longer flip the outcome.
- P1-1: replace the English-only refactor/complex/design/architect keyword
sniff (dead code against Korean-language reviewer reports) with an explicit
[ESCALATE: PLANNER] tag the reviewer prompt now asks for.
- P1-2: resolve_all_reviewers/resolve_agent_type/resolve_planner_session now
read through lib.sh's load_state_json single source of truth instead of
each hand-rolling its own SQLite+YAML lookup; resolve_agent_type's name
fallback matches exact hyphen segments instead of a substring `in` check.
- P2-1: warn when --all-reviewer and --reviewer are both given, since the
latter is silently discarded.
- P2-2: correct the SKILL.md CLI-mapping table row that overstated an
automated lint gate and an unconditional Planner feedback loop.
- P3: fix lib.sh shellcheck SC2164 (unguarded cd in start_watchdog) and
annotate the intentional SC2317 dual source/exec guard.
Verified: shellcheck clean on both scripts, bash -n syntax OK, and the
rewritten has_verdict/resolve_* functions were unit-tested against this
repo's live .mam/agent-sessions state.
