Orchestrator was editing source code directly instead of spawning workers.
Added CRITICAL section making it explicit:
- Orchestrator NEVER edits source code
- Orchestrator NEVER runs quality gates
- Orchestrator ONLY manages tasks.md and spawns workers
- No "quick fixes" — spawn a worker instead

Addresses threshold-satisficing behavior where agent declared success
at 91% and moved on. New protocol requires:
- Bulk Phase (90%): Fast progress on tractable errors
- Polish Phase (100%): Triage remaining into categories
- Phase Boundary Rule: Must complete Polish before proceeding
- Documentation: All deferrals documented with rationale
Transforms "78 errors acceptable" into traceable technical decisions.

CRITICAL finding: Agents cannot trigger compaction
- "compact and continue" does NOT work
- Only user typing /compact in CLI works
- Auto-compact at ~95% is too late
Updated protocol:
- Stop at 55-60% context usage
- Output COMPACTION REQUIRED checkpoint
- Wait for user to run /compact and say "continue"

New package providing CLI tools that work with both Gitea and GitHub:
Commands:
- mosaic-issue-{create,list,view,assign,edit,close,reopen,comment}
- mosaic-pr-{create,list,view,merge,review,close}
- mosaic-milestone-{create,list,close}
Features:
- Auto-detects platform (Gitea vs GitHub) from git remote
- Unified interface regardless of platform
- Available via `pnpm exec mosaic-*` in monorepo context
Updated docs/claude/orchestrator.md:
- Added CLI Tools section with usage examples
- Updated issue creation to use package commands
This makes Mosaic Stack fully self-contained for orchestration tooling.

- Add docs/tasks.md with 28 tasks across 4 phases:
- Phase 1: Critical Security (MS-SEC-001 to MS-SEC-010)
- Phase 2: High Security (MS-HIGH-001 to MS-HIGH-006)
- Phase 3: Code Quality (MS-CQ-001 to MS-CQ-007)
- Phase 4: Test Coverage (MS-TEST-001 to MS-TEST-005)
- Add project-specific task-tracking.md reference
