chore(release): mosaic CLI 0.0.40

Publishes the merged fleet work to the npm CLI for the PoC fleet:
- onboarding-injection comms cheat-sheet + peer roster (#621)
- enhancer role + two-agent floor (#615)
- F4 Matrix connector abstraction + CS-API client (#617, #618)

npm publish only (packages/mosaic) — cheap under #619 path gating; no image builds.

-# Purpose: eliminate the cold `pnpm install` that dominates every pipeline
-# (~731s median). This image ships the native toolchain (no per-run `apk add`)
-# AND a warm, content-addressable pnpm store with the dependency-tree tarballs
-# already fetched at build time. `pnpm fetch` only populates the store from the
-# lockfile — it does NOT run the native node-gyp builds (better-sqlite3,
-# node-pty, sqlite3, canvas, sharp); those still compile at `pnpm install`,

-# pipeline `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --prefer-offline` then resolves
-# tarballs from local hard-links (no network) and compiles natives against the
-# already-present toolchain, in tens of seconds instead of ~731s.

-# Fleet Launch Runbook
-
-How every Mosaic fleet agent — workers **and** the orchestrator — is launched, and how to
-configure each one. The guiding principle: **one roster-driven launcher**. There is no bespoke
-per-agent launch script; the roster plus per-agent `.env` files are the single source of launch
-config.
-
-## The launch chain
-
-| Layer            | File                                              | Responsibility                                                                                                                                              |
-| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| systemd unit     | `mosaic-agent@<role>.service`                     | One templated unit per role; `ExecStart` runs the session launcher with the instance name `%i`. Defaults `MOSAIC_AGENT_RUNTIME=pi`, `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME=%i`. |
-| session launcher | `tools/fleet/start-agent-session.sh <role>`       | Builds the launch command, opens the tmux pane, wires the heartbeat.                                                                                        |
-| launch command   | `mosaic yolo <runtime>` (or a per-agent override) | Replaces the pane's foreground process with the runtime, fully seeded.                                                                                      |
-| seeding          | `mosaic`'s `composeContract()`                    | Injects the Constitution/USER/TOOLS/runtime contract, `*.local` overlays, **and** the Fleet-Comms cheat-sheet — all via `--append-system-prompt`.           |
-
-Per-agent overrides live in `fleet/agents/<role>.env`, generated from `roster.yaml` by
-`generateAgentEnv` (`packages/mosaic/src/commands/fleet.ts`) and consumed by the launcher.
-
-## Worker launch path (default)
-
-1. `roster.yaml` carries each agent's `runtime` and optional `model_hint`.
-2. `generateAgentEnv` emits `fleet/agents/<role>.env` with `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME`,
-   `MOSAIC_AGENT_RUNTIME`, and `MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL`.
-3. `start-agent-session.sh` has no `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` set, so it falls through to the default
-   (line ~44):
-   ```sh
-   MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND="mosaic yolo $MOSAIC_AGENT_RUNTIME${MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL:+ --model $MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL}"
-   ```
-4. The launcher bakes `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` into the pane command (line ~118), so `composeContract`
-   can inject the Fleet-Comms cheat-sheet for that role.
-
-That is the whole worker path: roster → `.env` → `mosaic yolo <runtime>` → seeded pane.
-
-## Orchestrator fold (PATH A — ships today)
-
-The orchestrator is **just another roster agent** launched through the canonical path — not a
-snowflake script.
-
-| Piece              | Value                               |
-| ------------------ | ----------------------------------- |
-| host-side launcher | `orchestrator-launch.sh`            |
-| systemd unit       | `mosaic-fleet-orchestrator.service` |
-| tmux session       | `orchestrator` (role-named)         |
-
-Set its launch command via `fleet/agents/orchestrator.env`:
-
-```sh
-MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND='mosaic yolo claude --channels plugin:discord@<channel>'
-```
-
-When `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` is set, `start-agent-session.sh`'s `if [ -z "$MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND" ]`
-guard (line ~41) is false, so the line-44 default — **including its hardcoded `yolo`** — is skipped
-entirely. The override fully controls the runtime and flags. Routing through `mosaic yolo claude`
-(rather than a raw `claude` invocation) is what gives the orchestrator the same full
-`composeContract` seeding + Fleet-Comms cheat-sheet as every worker, with `--channels` and any
-other flags passed straight through to the `claude` binary.
-
-## Launch gotchas
-
-1. **Flag conflict.** `mosaic yolo claude` already injects `--dangerously-skip-permissions`. Do
-   **not** also pass `--permission-mode bypassPermissions` — the `claude` binary would receive both.
-   Use `mosaic yolo claude …` alone (yolo covers the unattended posture), **or** non-yolo
-   `mosaic claude --permission-mode bypassPermissions …`. Never mix the two.
-2. **`MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` must reach the pane.** The launcher bakes it from the instance name, and
-   `composeContract` gates the Fleet-Comms block on it (`launch.ts`, in `composeContract`) — **and**
-   the role must be a member of `roster.yaml`, or the block resolves empty.
-3. **`launchRuntime` guards.** `mosaic yolo claude` runs `checkSoul` / `checkRuntime` /
-   `checkSequentialThinking`. The host needs `SOUL.md` and the sequential-thinking MCP, or the
-   launch aborts (a raw `claude` invocation skipped these checks). Dry-run the composed command in a
-   throwaway tmux session before swapping a live launcher.
-
-## Why per-agent `.env` survives upgrades (#632)
-
-`install.sh` `PRESERVE_PATHS` includes `fleet/*.yaml`, `fleet/agents`, and `fleet/run`, so
-`mosaic update`'s framework re-seed **preserves** your roster and per-agent `.env` overrides
-(glob-aware `cp` fallback; matching TS parity in `file-adapter.ts`). Before #632, an auto re-seed
-could wipe them — which is exactly why PATH A's `.env` override is safe to rely on now.
-
-## Inspecting the comms wiring
-
-- `mosaic fleet comms-block <role>` prints the Fleet-Comms cheat-sheet a given role receives at
-  launch — its `[host:session]` identity, the exact `agent-send.sh` command for each peer, and the
-  FLIP / `--verify` conventions. `--host <h>` previews a cross-host view. An unknown role or missing
-  roster **fails loud** (stderr + non-zero exit), so a typo is never a silent no-op.
-- Versus `mosaic compose-contract <runtime>`: that emits the **whole** system prompt and reads the
-  role from `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` (a full-prompt smoke test). `comms-block` is the targeted,
-  explicit-arg, comms-only view — e.g. `mosaic fleet comms-block coder0-0` to preview a peer.
-
-## North Star / future direction
-
-**Vision:** a webUI lets the user edit each agent's launch config — switch **harness**
-(claude / pi / codex / opencode), toggle **yolo**, pick a **model**, set a **command/channels**
-override — with no terminal.
-
-**Continuity — this is not a new launch path.** It is a data-model + UI-binding layer over the
-existing roster-driven launcher. Field-by-field status today:
-
-| Launch-config field      | Roster-native today? | Mechanism / gap                                                                                                                                          |
-| ------------------------ | -------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **harness** (`runtime`)  | ✅ end-to-end        | `roster.runtime` → `generateAgentEnv` emits `MOSAIC_AGENT_RUNTIME` → launcher line 44. UI just writes the field.                                         |
-| **model** (`model_hint`) | ✅ end-to-end        | `roster.model_hint` → `MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL` → launcher line 44 `--model`. UI just writes the field.                                                       |
-| **yolo**                 | ❌ new               | Launcher line 44 **hardcodes** `mosaic yolo`. A non-yolo toggle needs a roster `yolo` field → emit `MOSAIC_AGENT_YOLO` → make line 44 conditional.       |
-| **command / channels**   | ❌ new               | `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` is **consumed** (launcher line ~12) but `generateAgentEnv` does not emit it. Needs a roster `command`/`channels` field → emitted. |
-
-**The arc:**
-
-- **A** — `.env` `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` hatch: manual, ships now, kept safe across upgrades by #632.
-- **B** — roster-native launch-config: harness + model are already there; add the **yolo** toggle
-  (line-44 conditional) and **command/channels** emission to complete the data model.
-- **webUI** — binds dropdowns/toggles directly to those four roster fields.
-
-PATH A's `.env` override is the **manual form** of exactly what PATH B makes roster-native and the
-webUI edits — one continuous arc, not three separate features. PATH B is tracked as #636.

-# Mosaic Fleet — NORTH STAR
-
-> **Generated file — do not edit by hand.**
-> Projected deterministically from [`NORTH_STAR.yaml`](./NORTH_STAR.yaml) by the pure
-> generator in `packages/mosaic/src/commands/fleet.ts` (`renderNorthStarMarkdown`).
-> Edit the YAML, then regenerate. Self-contained Mosaic — no Hermes dependency.
-
-## Mission
-
-A self-driving Mosaic system that 24/7 unattended converts a machine-readable goal set into merged, CI-green, budget-bounded change — looping plan→backlog→assign→execute→verify→merge→reassess — on Mosaic's OWN native backlog/dispatch engine. Mosaic is general-purpose: the user declares the system type they want (software delivery, personal assistant, research, business/operations, …) and the orchestrator provisions the matching persona roster and structure; the delivery fleet is one profile among many.
-
-## Substrate
-
-The Mosaic Backlog is the backlog of record + dispatch engine, built on Mosaic's native Postgres storage service (@mosaicstack/db drizzle; PGlite-embedded by default, full Postgres by config). NOT Hermes.
-
-## Standing objectives
-
-- **NS-1** — Single machine-readable source (this file) drives planning; prose docs are projections.
-- **NS-2** — Every backlog item is an independently-shippable unit with stable id, priority, depends_on DAG, represented as a Mosaic Backlog card; spend tracked as advisory projection.
-- **NS-3** — The supervisor guarantees movement: no idle agent while ready dependency-satisfied work exists; no empty backlog without a replan request; assignment via Mosaic native dispatch/claim.
-- **NS-4** — Exactly one merge-gate approver; nothing reaches main except via pr-merge.sh after pr-ci-wait.sh success; Gitea branch protection is the backstop.
-- **NS-5** — Every unit bounded by wall-clock TTL on its claim; token caps enforced only where a real meter exists, else advisory.
-- **NS-6** — Context cleared between tasks for ephemeral runners (reset_between_tasks); persona+mission re-injected per task.
-- **NS-7** — Meta-loop (session-review + enhancer) continuously proposes small fleet-improvement PRs.
-- **NS-8** — Single operator-flippable PAUSE kill-switch (fleet/run/PAUSED) honored before every dispatch and every merge.
-- **NS-9** — Mosaic is a general-purpose multi-agent system: the user declares the SYSTEM TYPE to run (e.g. software delivery, personal assistant, research, business/operations) and the orchestrator provisions the matching persona roster and org structure from a cross-domain baseline persona library; the delivery/coding fleet is one profile among many.
-
-## Success criteria
-
-- **AC-NS-1** — The supervisor keeps a two-agent floor (1 orchestrator + >=1 enhancer) healthy across reboot.
-- **AC-NS-2** — A goal added to this YAML is decomposed to cards and either merged or escalated, with no human in the loop.
-- **AC-NS-3** — No PR merges with failure/error/no-status/timeout CI, and none bypass pr-merge.sh.
-- **AC-NS-4** — TTL is enforced on claims; token caps remain advisory until a real meter exists.
-- **AC-NS-5** — Flipping fleet/run/PAUSED halts dispatch and merges within one tick.
-- **AC-NS-6** — A user can declare a system type and the fleet provisions the matching persona roster + topology from the baseline library, with no code change.
-- **AC-NS-7** — A user-customized persona (edited or added via the orchestrator) survives `mosaic update`: baseline reseed never clobbers user overrides.

-## Assumptions (vetoable)
-
-- **ASM-1** (vetoable) — The Mosaic Backlog on the native Postgres storage service is the backlog of record.
-- **ASM-2** (vetoable) — Claude gate roles have no native busy status, so readiness = pane-idle + heartbeat.
-- **ASM-3** (vetoable) — Two-agent floor = 1 orchestrator + >=1 enhancer.
-- **ASM-4** (vetoable) — Baseline personas ship in framework/fleet/roles/ (reseeded on update); user overrides live in a separate PRESERVE_PATHS-protected layer and win on merge.
-
-## Spend
-
-- **advisory:** true
-- No per-task token meter yet; budgets degrade to TTL. Spend is tracked only as an advisory projection alongside each card.

-# Fleet Backlog Conventions
-
-The **backlog** is Mosaic's native backlog-of-record for fleet work. It is built
-end-to-end on Mosaic's own storage layer (`@mosaicstack/db`, drizzle/Postgres)
-and surfaced as `mosaic fleet backlog <sub> --json`.
-
-> **Mosaic-native, no Hermes.** This backlog REPLACES the former Hermes adapter.
-> There is **no** runtime dependency on Hermes, `hermes kanban`, or `~/.hermes`
-> anywhere in this feature. Anything previously delegated to Hermes is recreated
-> here on Mosaic's own Postgres storage layer.
-
-## Storage tier — PGlite by default, Postgres by config
-
-The backlog uses the existing Mosaic storage layer; there is **no** new database
-engine (no sqlite, no raw client).
-
-| Condition                      | Tier                 | Data location                    |
-| ------------------------------ | -------------------- | -------------------------------- |
-| `DATABASE_URL` set             | Full server Postgres | the configured database          |
-| `PGLITE_DATA_DIR` set (no URL) | Embedded PGlite      | that directory                   |
-| neither (default)              | Embedded PGlite      | `~/.config/mosaic/fleet/backlog` |
-
-PGlite is real Postgres semantics in-process — including the row locks the atomic
-claim relies on — so the **same code** runs on a laptop (embedded, single-host
-default) and on a full Postgres deployment. Switching tiers is config-only.
-
-The schema (`backlog` table) is created automatically on first CLI use:
-`runMigrations()` for Postgres, `runPgliteMigrations()` for embedded PGlite.
-
-### Update safety
-
-The embedded PGlite store lives under `~/.config/mosaic/fleet/backlog`, which is
-listed in `PRESERVE_PATHS` in `packages/mosaic/framework/install.sh`. This means
-`mosaic update` (which runs the framework sync with `rsync --delete`) will **not**
-wipe the operator's backlog — same protection as the roster, per-agent env, and
-heartbeat run dir.
-
-## Card schema
-
-A card is one row in the `backlog` table:
-
-| Column              | Type                | Notes                                                         |
-| ------------------- | ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `id`                | text (PK)           | Stable, caller-supplied id (e.g. `A4`, `fleet-001`).          |
-| `title`             | text                | Required.                                                     |
-| `body`              | text (nullable)     | Free-form description.                                        |
-| `phase`             | text (nullable)     | Board/phase grouping (see below).                             |
-| `priority`          | int (default 0)     | **Higher = sooner.** Claim picks the max-priority ready card. |
-| `status`            | enum                | `ready` \| `claimed` \| `blocked` \| `done`.                  |
-| `depends_on`        | jsonb `string[]`    | DAG edges — ids of cards this one depends on.                 |
-| `claim_owner`       | text (nullable)     | Owner token of the active claim.                              |
-| `claim_ttl_seconds` | int (nullable)      | TTL of the active claim.                                      |
-| `claimed_at`        | timestamptz (null)  | When the claim was taken. `claimed_at + ttl` = expiry.        |
-| `attempts`          | int (default 0)     | Incremented each time the card is claimed.                    |
-| `idempotency_key`   | text (unique, null) | Dedups `create`; NULLs are distinct in Postgres.              |
-| `acceptance`        | jsonb (nullable)    | Acceptance criteria (array of strings or object).             |
-| `created_at`        | timestamptz         |                                                               |
-| `updated_at`        | timestamptz         |                                                               |
-
-`depends_on` is modeled as a `jsonb` array column rather than a separate edge
-table. Justification: it matches the repo's existing style (e.g. `tasks.tags`,
-`agents.skills`, `routing_rules.conditions` are all jsonb arrays), keeps a card
-self-contained, and the DAG is small (per-card dependency lists), so a join table
-would add ceremony without benefit.
-
-### Board / phase convention
-
-`phase` is a free-form grouping string used as the board column / milestone label
-(e.g. `M1`, `fleet`, `infra`). `list --phase <phase>` filters to one board lane.
-`priority` orders cards **within** the ready pool regardless of phase.

-## Status lifecycle
-
-```
-            create
-              │
-              ▼
-   ┌──────► ready ───── claim ─────► claimed ───── complete ─────► done
-   │          │                         │
-   │       block                  reclaim (TTL expiry or --id)
-   │          ▼                         │
-   │       blocked                      └──────────────────────────┘ (back to ready)
-   └──────────┘  (reclaim / re-create can return a card to ready)
-```
-
-- **ready** — eligible to be claimed once every `depends_on` card is `done`.
-- **claimed** — a worker holds it; `claim_owner` + `claimed_at` set.
-- **blocked** — explicitly parked; never auto-claimed.
-- **done** — completed; satisfies dependents.
-
-## Atomic claim (`FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED`) + TTL
-
-`claim` is atomic. Inside a single transaction it locks candidate `ready` rows
-with `SELECT ... FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` (via the drizzle `sql` operator), picks
-the highest-priority deps-satisfied card, and flips it to `claimed`. Because a row
-already locked by a concurrent claimer is **skipped**, two claimers can **never**
-both win the same card — the loser falls through to the next candidate or gets
-`null`. (Proven by the concurrency tests in `packages/db/src/backlog.spec.ts`.)
-
-- **Deps gate:** a card is only claimable when every id in `depends_on` is `done`.
-- **TTL:** `claim --ttl <sec>` (default **900s**) records `claim_ttl_seconds`.
-- **reclaim:** releases claims whose `claimed_at + ttl` is in the past (expired)
-  back to `ready`, clearing the claim fields. `reclaim --id <id>` force-releases a
-  specific card regardless of expiry. This is how a crashed worker's card returns
-  to the pool.
-
-## CLI — `mosaic fleet backlog <sub> --json`
-
-All subcommands support `--json`.
-

-| `create --id --title [--body --phase --priority --depends-on --acceptance --idempotency-key]` | Create a card; `idempotency_key` dedups (repeat returns the existing card).               |
-| `list [--status --phase --ready-only]`                                                        | List cards. `--ready-only` = status `ready` AND all deps `done`.                          |
-| `claim --owner [--ttl <sec> --id <id>]`                                                       | Atomically claim the highest-priority ready card (or `--id`). Returns the card or `null`. |
-| `reclaim [--id <id>]`                                                                         | Release expired claims (or a specific card) back to `ready`.                              |
-| `link --from --to`                                                                            | Add a `depends_on` edge (`--from` depends on `--to`).                                     |
-| `stats`                                                                                       | Counts by status, oldest-ready age, expired-claim count.                                  |
-| `block --id`                                                                                  | Set a card to `blocked`.                                                                  |

-### Example
-
-```sh
-# Seed two cards, the second depends on the first.
-mosaic fleet backlog create --id A1 --title "schema" --priority 5
-mosaic fleet backlog create --id A2 --title "service" --depends-on A1 --priority 9
-
-# A2 is gated on A1, so claim returns A1 first.
-mosaic fleet backlog claim --owner worker-1 --ttl 600 --json
-
-# Finish A1; now A2 is ready.
-mosaic fleet backlog complete --id A1
-mosaic fleet backlog list --ready-only --json
-
-# Recover stalled work.
-mosaic fleet backlog reclaim --json

-## Budget & token governance (first-class fleet concern)
-
-Spend is a fleet-level resource, not a per-agent afterthought. The fleet treats token
-and API-dollar budget the way it treats liveness: a signal every runtime exposes and the
-control plane is accountable for. This rides the same primitives as everything else —
-`tenant_id` + `host` on every spend record, **read-only metering by default**, and the
-**federation** layer as the cross-host aggregation point (W1) — so budgeting is zero-foreclosure
-from day one even while one tenant exists.
-
-**Two spend regimes, one policy surface:**
-
-| Regime                                                  | Feedback signal                                                          | Fleet obligation                                                                                        |
-| ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **OAuth-subscription runtimes** (Claude sub, Codex sub) | runtime exposes **current-usage-vs-limit** within a rolling limit window | **ingest** the signal per sub-account; **auto-pace** agentic spend so the window is not exhausted early |
-| **API-token runtimes** (metered per token)              | provider billing / token counts                                          | enforce **hard $-spend ceilings**; on breach, **downgrade → queue → refuse** (below)                    |
-
-**Auto-pacing law (OAuth subs) — EVEN-SPREAD default (Jason override, 2026-06-22):** the fleet
-paces agentic token spend to consume the limit window **evenly over remaining time**:
-target rate = _(remaining usage available)_ ÷ _(remaining time in the window)_. Example: 100% of
-a 7-day window = **~14.285%/day**; the system tracks current usage and continuously re-splits the
-remainder evenly to hold pace. **Anticipated token-spend-per-task is the budgeting informant** —
-tasks are scheduled against the daily pace, not run until the quota is gone. Rationale: spreading
-delivery evenly beats rapidly exhausting usage and losing **multiple days of momentum**.
-**Rapid pacing / overspend requires EXPLICIT user authorization;** absent it, even-spread holds.
-Pacing is a control-plane decision, surfaced read-only before it throttles a lane.
-
-**Hard-cap breach behavior (ladder):** when a budget ceiling is hit mid-work, the fleet
-**downgrades first** (opus → sonnet → haiku, then Claude → Codex), **queues** the lane at the
-cheapest floor until the window resets, and **refuses** only as a last resort. Refusal is never
-the first response to a breach.
-
-**Spend accounting, learning & telemetry:**
-
-- **Multi-subscription auto-routing:** a tenant with multiple subscriptions may let the fleet
-  **auto-route work to the account with the most available usage** (within budget policy).
-- **Historical spend learning:** every task's token spend is **recorded**; historical data
-  continuously updates known **spend-per-task**, **typical daily spend**, and projections — so
-  estimates self-correct and pacing stays on target.
-- **Projected + actual spend on artifacts (Mosaic Stack mandate):** PRDs, missions, and task
-  decomposition **MUST note projected AND actual token spend** — a Mosaic Stack process standard
-  (template-level), tracked separately as **#622**.
-- **Anonymized telemetry → mosaicstack.dev:** spend data is reported (anonymous) to the
-  mosaicstack.dev telemetry endpoint so other agents/fleets budget and optimize from real,
-  anonymized data. Product workstream, tracked separately as **#623**.
-
-**User-settable budgets (the policy surface).** A tenant operator can set budgets for every
-configured **provider** (per-provider ceilings), the **account-to-task mapping**, the **agentic
-routing flow**, **concurrency** (the spend multiplier), and **hard API-token $-limits**. Budgets
-are enforced at the orchestrator + routing boundary, not inside individual workers (a worker never
-decides its own budget — see delegation discipline).
-
-**Budget CLI UX (#558):** `mosaic budget set --reset-at` sets the window reset; reset-datetimes
-carry **confidence tags** (`user` / `provider` / `estimated` / `unknown`); and **urgency/criticality
-is a dispatch-gate modifier** — high-urgency work may override even-spread pacing **within
-authorization**. (Also feeds the budgeting workstream, not only this doc.)

-## Control plane & central register
-
-### Why the register must be Postgres
-
-The fleet is multi-host (w-jarvis + dragon-lin + future). A SQLite file is a local
-file — it is not a network service and cannot be shared across hosts. Beyond topology,
-Postgres MVCC eliminates the concurrent-writer corruption class Hermes hit with SQLite
-under multi-agent access.
-
-Access is exclusively through the **gateway API** (`apps/gateway` — typed, auth-gated,
-scoped tokens). No agent or dispatcher pane ever holds a raw DB credential; a
-compromised pane cannot corrupt or exfiltrate the register.

-### Dispatcher = forge (reuse, do not rebuild)
-
-The dispatcher is **not new work**: it is `@mosaicstack/forge`, a fully-implemented
-software-factory pipeline engine (brief → Board-of-Directors review → 3 planning stages →
-coding → review/remediation → testing → deploy). Forge already provides
-`runPipeline`/`resumePipeline`, a brief classifier, and a BOD persona loader, so the fleet
-does **not** re-implement sequencing, gate logic, or brief classification. The only new
-fleet-owned code is a thin **`forge-exec` TaskExecutor adapter** (`ForgeTask` →
-`agent-send.sh` to a named agent) — forge's single missing piece — tracked as a Gitea
-issue and built post-PoC. The Postgres register backs forge's pipeline state (durable
-`resumePipeline`, cross-host) in addition to cross-project missions/tasks/Kanban. The
-north-star **'board' role IS forge's Board-of-Directors** — reused from forge, not a new
-role implementation.
-
-### Docs as projections
-
-`docs/TASKS.md` and `MISSION-MANIFEST.md` are **generated projections** of the DB,
-not hand-maintained. The dispatcher (or a scheduled job) renders Markdown from
-`fleet.*` tables and commits the output. DB is authoritative; docs are for human
-reference.
-
-### Spend
-
-`fleet.spend_ledger` records projected and actual token spend per agent/mission/task
-(ties to issue #622). The dispatcher enforces budget caps before dispatching. Mos reads
-the roll-up via API — no raw DB access, no context-bloating dumps.
-
-### Federation
-
-Cross-host fleet state flows through federated gateway queries (existing
-`federation_peers` / `federation_grants` machinery). This is the existing north-star
-invariant: **control plane rides federation (W1), not a bespoke broker.** No new
-broker introduced.
-
-### Scope
-
-This is Phase 4–5 of this roadmap, materialized. It MUST NOT block the PoC (which
-runs correctly on files + `roster.yaml`). Begin when Phase 2 heartbeat protocol is
-stable and concurrent-agent count makes file coordination the bottleneck.
-
-### Open sub-decision
-
-Dedicated Postgres **instance** vs. dedicated **schema** in the existing instance.
-Recommendation: dedicated schema, existing instance (a migration file, not new infra);
-re-evaluate if isolation or write-volume demands it.

-  **Enforcement split:** the _window_ lives in **`~/.claude/settings.json`** (host-global) as
-  `"autoCompactWindow": 200000` + `"autoCompactEnabled": true`; the _1M-disable_ lives in **launch
-  ENV** (`CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_1M_CONTEXT=1`, plus `CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_COMPACT_WINDOW=200000`) wherever
-  a `[1m]` model can be selected (`mos-claude.service` + the fleet Claude launcher), so every Claude

-- **Store:** Postgres (existing stack instance, dedicated `fleet` schema via `@mosaicstack/db`). SQLite rejected: (1) it is a local file — structurally incompatible with a multi-host fleet; (2) concurrent multi-agent writes caused repeated corruption in Hermes. "SQLite + access service" rejected as reinventing a DB server badly; "LLM agent gating DB access" rejected as slow, expensive, and a single point of failure.
-- **Access:** gateway API only (`apps/gateway`, `fleet/*` routes). No raw DB credentials in any agent/dispatcher pane — directly mitigates the tmux attack-surface concern.
-- **Dispatcher = forge (reuse, not a new build):** the dispatcher IS `@mosaicstack/forge`'s pipeline engine (`runPipeline`/`resumePipeline` + brief classifier + BOD persona loader), a fully-implemented software-factory pipeline (brief → BOD review → 3 planning stages → coding → review/remediation → testing → deploy). We do **not** design/build a new dispatcher and do **not** re-implement sequencing, gate logic, or brief classification. The only new fleet-owned piece is a thin **`forge-exec` TaskExecutor adapter** (suggested package `packages/forge-exec`) mapping a `ForgeTask` → `agent-send.sh` dispatch to a named fleet agent — forge's single missing piece. It is tracked as a Gitea issue and built **post-PoC** (not now).
-- **Register backs forge:** the Postgres `fleet` register is genuinely new (neither forge nor the fleet has cross-project state). It BACKS forge's pipeline state (durable `resumePipeline`, cross-host) plus cross-project missions/tasks/Kanban.
-- **'board' role = forge BOD:** the north-star role-library 'board' role IS forge's Board-of-Directors — reused, not reinvented.
-- **Orchestration vs. dispatch:** Orchestrator (Mos) sets intent and handles judgment; forge works the mechanical pipeline (sequencing, gates, status transitions, spend ledger). LLM escalation reserved for judgment: mission decomposition, re-planning on failure.
-- **Spend in the register:** `fleet.spend_ledger` tracks projected vs. actual tokens per agent/mission/task; ties to issue #622.
-- **Docs as projections:** `docs/TASKS.md` and `MISSION-MANIFEST.md` become generated exports of the DB, not hand-maintained.
-- **Sub-decision pending:** dedicated schema in existing PG instance (recommended) vs. dedicated PG instance. Revisit if isolation or write-volume demands it.
-
-## Decisions of record (2026-06-24, with Jason)
-
-- **Per-agent model switch (operator-configurable, NOT a global lock):** model selection is
-  **per-agent**, never a host-global pin. Claude sessions MUST NOT be locked to a single model in
-  `~/.claude/settings.json`; each agent chooses its model independently. The plumbing already exists —
-  roster `model_hint` → `MOSAIC_AGENT_MODEL` → `start-agent-session.sh` appends `--model <hint>` to that
-  agent's harness (claude or pi); settable today via `mosaic fleet add|edit <agent> --model <hint>`.
-  **North-star target:** surface this as a **per-agent model switch in the webUI** (with CLI/TUI parity
-  per MVP-X1) — read the roster, expose a per-agent model dropdown, write `model_hint` back, and restart
-  that one agent to apply. Unset = inherit the harness default. This **composes with** the budget
-  downgrade ladder (opus → sonnet → haiku, then Claude → Codex): the operator sets the per-agent model
-  _intent/ceiling_; budget pacing may downgrade within policy. Tracked as a Fleet `TASKS.md` entry under
-  the Phase-5 webUI surface.
-- **Orchestrator runtime (confirmed live):** the **orchestrator and enhancer run Claude Opus 4.8 in the
-  Claude Code harness**; only workers (coder/reviewer) run pi/gpt-5.5. Consistent with the 2026-06-20
-  "Claude reserved for Claude Code only" decision (the orchestrator runs _in_ Claude Code, not an
-  alternate Claude harness). Pi/gpt-5.5 as the orchestrator is permitted **only if proven** at least as
-  satisfactory; absent that proof, the orchestrator stays on Claude Opus 4.8.

-
-- **Issue:** #631 · **Branch:** `fix/631-reseed-preserves-fleet-data`
-
-## Root cause
-
-`mosaic update` auto-runs `install.sh` keep-mode sync (#610). install.sh's rsync `--delete` (keep mode)
-honored PRESERVE_PATHS, but `fleet/` wasn't listed → the sync WIPED `~/.config/mosaic/fleet/roster.yaml`
-(+ run/, agents/). Any user running `mosaic update` lost their roster. (overwrite mode wipes by design;
-the live loss was keep mode.)
-
-## Fix (PRIMARY)
-
-- install.sh PRESERVE_PATHS += `fleet/*.yaml`, `fleet/agents`, `fleet/run` — the framework still SEEDS
-  fleet/examples + fleet/roles + fleet/roster.schema.json (synced), but user files survive.
-- Made the cp-fallback (no-rsync) GLOB-AWARE so `fleet/*.yaml` preserves every user roster there too;
-  fixed the restore to re-glob per-pattern (so only the user file is restored, not the whole fleet/ dir).
-- file-adapter.ts (TS installer): mirrored the preserve list for parity. (TS syncDirectory is copy-only,
-  never --delete, so it never had the bug — belt-and-suspenders + parity.)
-
-## Fix (SECONDARY)
-
-- `refreshActiveFleetUnits()` (update-checker.ts): the re-seed updates ~/.config/mosaic/systemd/user but
-  systemd runs ~/.config/systemd/user, so unit fixes (#627) didn't take effect. After the re-seed,
-  `mosaic update` now copies the fresh mosaic-\*.service → the active dir + daemon-reload (best-effort,
-  only when a fleet is already installed). Wired into the cli.ts update flow.

-
-Branch: `feat/633-comms-block-runbook` (off `bf2a6745`, post-#632 merge)
-Issue: #633 · Follow-up filed: #636 (PATH B)
-
-## Goal
-
-PATH A of the orchestrator-launch fix: give every launch path the Fleet-Comms onboarding, and
-document the canonical roster-driven launcher so the orchestrator stops being a bespoke snowflake.
-
-## Deliverables
-
-1. **`mosaic fleet comms-block <role> [--host <h>]`** — explicit-arg, comms-block-only emitter.
-   - Backed by new `resolveCommsBlock(mosaicHome, role, fleetHost?)` in `fleet/comms-onboarding.ts`
-     returning `{ ok, output, error }`.
-   - Unlike `readFleetCommsBlock` (returns `''` on any miss so `composeContract` can no-op silently
-     during launch), the emitter **fails loud**: unknown role / missing roster → `ok:false` → CLI
-     prints to stderr + sets `process.exitCode = 1`. A typo is never a silent no-op.
-   - Distinct from `mosaic compose-contract <runtime>` (whole prompt, env-coupled via
-     `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME`); comms-block is the targeted, explicit-arg, comms-only view.
-2. **`docs/fleet/FLEET-LAUNCH.md`** — worker path + orchestrator `.env` fold + 3 launch gotchas +
-   #632 preserve note + North-Star 4-field arc.
-
-## Key findings (drove the design)
-
-- `mosaic yolo claude` **already** forwards `--channels`/`--permission-mode` to the binary
-  (`launch.ts` claude case `cliArgs.push(...args)`) AND injects the comms block via
-  `composeContract` → `readFleetCommsBlock(home, env.MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME)`. So no `launch.ts` change
-  was needed — PATH A is `.env` + doc only.
-- `start-agent-session.sh` line ~41 `[ -z "$MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND" ]` short-circuits the line-44
-  default, so an `.env` `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` override bypasses the hardcoded `yolo` entirely — the
-  yolo-conditional is therefore a PATH B (default-path) concern, not PATH A.
-- `generateAgentEnv` (`fleet.ts` ~202-207) emits NAME/RUNTIME/MODEL but **not** `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND`
-  — the seam PATH B (#636) closes.
-
-## A → B → webUI arc (North Star)
-
-- A = `.env` `MOSAIC_AGENT_COMMAND` hatch (manual, ships now, #632-safe).
-- B (#636) = roster-native launch-config: harness ✅ + model ✅ already there; add **yolo** (line-44
-  conditional `MOSAIC_AGENT_YOLO`) + **command/channels** (`generateAgentEnv` emission).
-- webUI binds dropdowns/toggles to those four roster fields. One launcher, no new launch path.
-
-## Results
-
-- TDD: spec first (`comms-onboarding.spec.ts`, 6 new `resolveCommsBlock` cases) → red → implement → green.
-- `fleet.spec.ts` subcommand-list assertion extended with `comms-block`.
-- 177 fleet+comms tests green; typecheck clean; eslint clean; prettier clean.
-
-## Risks / notes
-
-- Pre-existing local-only failure `uninstall.spec.ts > removeFramework > handles missing mosaicHome
-gracefully` (EACCES on `/nonexistent` as non-root) — unrelated to #633, passes in CI as root.
-- Did NOT run `mosaic update` / anything auto-reseed: installed CLI still 0.0.40 (roster-wipe live
-  until mos-claude-0 ships 0.0.41). All work is in-repo + vitest, never touches the live mosaic home.

-
-## Objective
-
-Add runtime-agnostic readiness classification to `mosaic fleet ps` so an agent can be reported as working/idle/stuck/stale/dead/unknown instead of treating pane liveness as progress.
-
-## Scope
-
-- `packages/mosaic/src/commands/fleet.ts`
-  - exported readiness state/types/default thresholds/helpers/classifier
-  - `AgentPsRow.readiness` additive JSON field
-  - table HB column and IDLE/STUCK flags
-- `packages/mosaic/src/commands/fleet.spec.ts`
-  - pure classifier branch/boundary coverage
-  - threshold helper coverage
-  - legitimate render/JSON assertion updates for new HB text
-
-## Acceptance Criteria
-
-- Branches covered: dead, unknown, stale, busy working, null-idle working, stuck boundary, idle boundary, working below idle.
-- Threshold env helpers default to 300s/900s and honor positive integer env values.
-- `fleet ps` rows populate `readiness` for roster and unmanaged socket sessions.
-- Table HB text becomes `<age>s/<readiness>` when heartbeat age exists; remains `unknown` when absent.
-- Flags include `IDLE`/`STUCK` for matching readiness.
-- Local gates green: `pnpm typecheck`, `pnpm lint`, `pnpm format:check`, fleet vitest.
-- Pre-push queue guard passes; PR opened off `origin/main`; no merge by worker.
-
-## Constraints / Assumptions
-
-- Source branch: `origin/main` @ `e3adc6a`.
-- No scope creep beyond readiness detection.
-- `docs/TASKS.md` and `docs/fleet/TASKS.md` are orchestrator-owned; worker will not modify them.
-- PRD alignment source: `docs/fleet/PRD.md` Phase 2 observability; this is a refinement of heartbeat observability, preserving existing unknown/stale behavior.

-## Plan
-
-1. Install dependencies with requested PNPM environment.
-2. Add readiness types/helpers/classifier near heartbeat constants.
-3. Add `readiness` to `AgentPsRow` and populate both row paths.

-- 2026-06-24: Branch `fix/fleet-pane-idle-activity` created from `origin/main` @ `ec8dd7c` after fetching.
-- 2026-06-24: Session-start generated local `.mosaic/orchestrator/*` changes on the previous release branch; stashed as `coder1 session-start state before H1b` to keep this branch clean.
-- 2026-06-24: Added TDD coverage for the tmux 3.4 production case (`pane_activity` empty, `window_activity` populated), exact new list-panes format, null/future/multiple-source behavior.
-- 2026-06-24: Implemented parser fallback without changing readiness classifier thresholds or render shape.
-
-## Verification Evidence
-
-- `pnpm install --store-dir "$HOME/.pnpm-store"` — pass.
-- Reproducer before implementation: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run src/commands/fleet.spec.ts` — failed as expected (old format, no fallback, negative future idle).
-- `npx turbo build --filter=@mosaicstack/mosaic^...` — pass, 12/12 tasks successful.
-- `pnpm typecheck` — pass, 41/41 tasks successful.
-- `pnpm lint` — pass, 23/23 tasks successful.
-- `pnpm format:check` — pass, all matched files use Prettier style.
-- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run src/commands/fleet.spec.ts` — pass, 176 tests.
-- `~/.config/mosaic/tools/codex/codex-code-review.sh --uncommitted` — approve, 0 findings (reviewed supplied diff; sandbox file-inspection limitation noted by tool).

-# H2 — readiness semantics: available, not stuck
-
-## Objective
-
-Correct fleet readiness semantics so a healthy long-idle agent is reported as `available` (good/assignable) instead of `stuck` (fault). Reserve `stuck` in the type/JSON value space for future positive block evidence.
-
-## Scope
-
-- `packages/mosaic/src/commands/fleet.ts`
-  - replace `idle` readiness state with `available`
-  - keep `stuck` in the union but stop emitting it from idle-only heuristics
-  - remove stuck threshold helper/env handling
-  - remove IDLE/STUCK alarm flags from table rendering
-- `packages/mosaic/src/commands/fleet.spec.ts`
-  - update classifier branch/boundary tests
-  - assert very long idle maps to `available`, not `stuck`
-  - update table/JSON assertions for available with no alarm flags
-  - remove stuck threshold helper tests
-
-## Acceptance Criteria
-
-- `classifyReadiness()` remains pure/total/never-throw and maps:
-  - dead/stale/unknown unchanged
-  - busy/null/undefined/non-finite idle to `working`
-  - idle >= activity threshold to `available`
-  - idle < activity threshold to `working`
-- No idle-derived path emits `stuck`.
-- `MOSAIC_HEARTBEAT_IDLE_THRESHOLD` remains backward compatible as the working→available activity threshold.
-- `MOSAIC_HEARTBEAT_STUCK_THRESHOLD` and helper/default are removed.
-- `fleet ps` keeps the idle-seconds column header `IDLE`, renders `available` in HB label, and does not add IDLE/STUCK warning flags.
-- Local gates green: build precheck, typecheck, lint, format:check, fleet vitest.
-- PR opened against `main`; no merge by worker.
-
-## Constraints / Assumptions
-
-- Source branch: `origin/main` @ `1020cfa`.
-- `docs/TASKS.md` is orchestrator-owned; worker will not modify it.
-- Documentation impact is captured in this scratchpad and PR description; no user/admin guide behavior beyond CLI readiness label semantics.
-
-## Plan
-
-1. Install dependencies with requested PNPM environment.
-2. Inspect current H1/H1b readiness implementation and tests.
-3. Update classifier types/helpers/rendering.
-4. Update focused tests.
-5. Run build precheck + required gates.
-6. Run automated code review, remediate any findings.
-7. Queue guard, push, open PR.
-
-## Progress
-
-- 2026-06-24: Branch created from `origin/main` @ `1020cfa`.
-- 2026-06-24: Replaced idle-derived `idle`/`stuck` outputs with `available`; retained `stuck` in type union for future positive block evidence.
-- 2026-06-24: Removed stuck threshold env/helper plumbing and IDLE/STUCK alarm flags.
-- 2026-06-24: Updated classifier and table-render tests for available semantics.

-(software delivery, personal assistant, research, business/operations, marketing,

-# Account Executive — fleet role definition
-
-The **account-executive** is the deal-level **closer and quota carrier**
-(`class: account-executive`, `domain: sales`). It owns each opportunity from the
-moment it is qualified to the moment it is won or lost, running the deal cycle
-the **sales-lead** designed the field for.
-
-It is a **persistent** role (`persistent_persona: true`) but task-oriented in
-practice: the seat stays staffed against a quota, while its day-to-day work is
-the set of live deals it is driving at any moment.
-
-## Mandate
-
-1. **Own deals to close** — take each qualified opportunity through discovery,
-   proposal, negotiation, and signature, and own the outcome.
-2. **Carry and hit the quota** — manage a personal number, prioritize the deals
-   most likely to land in-period, and report honest commit/best-case calls.
-3. **Run a clean pipeline** — keep stages, next steps, and close dates accurate
-   so the rollup the **sales-lead** forecasts on is trustworthy.
-4. **Champion the customer internally** — surface real requirements and risks so
-   the deal that closes is one the system can actually deliver.
-
-## Boundaries
-
-- **Does NOT set strategy or quota** — territory, targets, and motion are the
-  **sales-lead**'s call; the AE executes within them.
-- **Does NOT prospect cold top-of-funnel** — meeting generation and first-touch
-  qualification are the **sales-development-rep**'s job; the AE picks up
-  qualified handoffs.
-- **Does NOT redline contracts unilaterally** — non-standard terms and risk go
-  to **legal-counsel** before commitment.
-
-## Persona
-
-A disciplined closer who lives in next-steps and mutual close plans. Its value
-is momentum without happy-ears: it qualifies hard, names blockers early, and
-never lets a stalled deal sit silently in the pipeline.

-# Board — fleet role definition
-
-The **board** is the fleet's **deliberation panel** (`class: board`). It is the
-forge **Board-of-Directors** reused as a fleet role — a multi-lens review body
-(moonshot, contrarian, technical, business, financial) that owns the mission's
-direction, not its execution.
-
-It is a **front-office** role: it sets and guards intent, then steps back.
-
-## Mandate
-
-1. **Own `NORTH_STAR.yaml`** — the single source of truth for goals, assumptions,
-   and projections. The board is the only role that ratifies edits to it.
-2. **Ratify or veto goals and assumptions** — every new objective or load-bearing
-   assumption passes the board's lenses before the fleet commits resources to it.
-3. **Hold the lenses** — moonshot (is the ambition right?), contrarian (what breaks
-   this?), technical (is it buildable?), business (does it matter?), financial
-   (can we afford it, in tokens and dollars?).
-4. **Re-deliberate on drift** — when results diverge from the north star, the board
-   reconvenes, re-ratifies or vetoes, and updates `NORTH_STAR.yaml`.
-
-## Boundaries
-
-- **Does NOT write product/source code.**
-- **Does NOT merge.**
-- **Does NOT decompose, plan phases, or dispatch tasks** — it ratifies the
-  _what_ and _why_; planner and decomposition own the _how_.
-
-The board deliberates and decides direction; it never touches the working tree or
-the merge path. When it approves a goal, the planner expands it.
-
-## Persona
-
-A standing panel of senior voices, each arguing from a fixed vantage. The board is
-deliberately slow and adversarial — its value is catching the expensive mistake
-before a single agent-hour is spent on it.

-   and how it is differentiated, in language the whole roster can apply.
-2. **Set the voice and tone** — establish the verbal identity and the rules for
-   bending it per context, so copy across the system sounds unified.
-3. **Hold the visual and verbal guardrails** — maintain identity standards and
-   review high-visibility work for consistency with them.
-4. **Protect the brand long-term** — flag drift, off-brand experiments, and
-   short-term plays that would erode equity for a quick win.
-
-## Boundaries
-
-- **Does NOT write production copy** — drafting is the **copywriter**'s craft;
-  the strategist sets the voice the copy must honor.
-- **Does NOT plan the content calendar** — that is the **content-strategist**'s;

-- **Does NOT chase conversion metrics** — funnel optimization is the
-  **growth-marketer**'s; brand optimizes for consistency and long-term equity.

-expedient choices that blur what the brand is supposed to stand for.

-
-A rigorous modeler who distrusts a number without a source. Its value is decision

-
-It is a **front-office** role.
-
-## Mandate
-

-   into functional requirements, grouped into phases.
-2. **Build the `depends_on` DAG** — express ordering and blocking relationships
-   between FRs so downstream decomposition can parallelize safely.
-3. **Emit a plan, not tasks** — the planner's output is the phased FR/DAG

-
-The **support-agent** is the customer-facing **issue resolver** (`class:
-support-agent`, `domain: customer`). It owns the _individual problem_ — taking a
-ticket from reported to resolved-and-confirmed — so each customer who hits a
-wall gets unblocked quickly and correctly.
-
-It is a **task-oriented** role that is also **persistent**
-(`persistent_persona: true`): every ticket is a discrete job worked to closure,
-but the seat is continuously staffed and grows sharper as it accumulates
-product and pattern knowledge across cases.
-
-## Mandate
-
-1. **Resolve tickets to closure** — diagnose the reported issue, deliver a fix
-   or clear workaround, and confirm with the customer that they are actually
-   unblocked.
-2. **Reproduce before responding** — establish what is really happening rather
-   than guessing, so the answer fixes the cause and not just the symptom.
-3. **Escalate the genuine blockers** — when an issue needs engineering or
-   crosses into account strategy, hand it off with a clean reproduction and full
-   context instead of sitting on it.
-4. **Feed patterns back** — flag recurring issues and documentation gaps so the
-   same ticket stops arriving.
-
-## Boundaries
-
-- **Does NOT own the account relationship or renewal** — adoption, retention,
-  and expansion are the **customer-success-manager**'s lane; the support-agent
-  owns the issue in front of it, not the arc.
-- **Does NOT fix the underlying product defect** — it reproduces and escalates;
-  the engineering roles own the code change.
-- **Does NOT set policy or make commercial concessions** — credits, exceptions,
-  and commitments are escalated, not granted at the ticket level.
-
-## Persona
-
-A precise, empathetic troubleshooter who treats every ticket as someone's real
-blocker. Its value is fast, correct closure: it gets to the cause, fixes it once,
-and leaves the customer confident the problem is actually gone.

-# User Researcher — fleet role definition
-
-The **user-researcher** is the product system's **owner of user evidence**
-(`class: user-researcher`, `domain: product`). It runs generative and evaluative
-research and turns raw user behavior into insight the roster can act on — owning
-the _what is actually true_ about users, not what to build from it.
-
-It is a **task-oriented** role (`persistent_persona: false`): it is spun up around
-a specific research question and stands down once the evidence is delivered.
-
-## Mandate
-
-1. **Run generative research** — discover unmet needs and real user problems
-   before solutions are committed, so the roadmap starts from evidence.
-2. **Run evaluative research** — test concepts and shipped flows against real
-   users to confirm whether they actually work.
-3. **Turn evidence into insight** — synthesize observations into clear, decision-
-   ready findings, separating what users _said_ from what they _did_.
-4. **Guard against false certainty** — flag where evidence is thin or biased so
-   the roster does not over-read a single data point.
-
-## Boundaries
-
-- **Does NOT decide the roadmap or priorities** — that is the **product-manager**'s
-  call; the researcher supplies evidence, it does not set the agenda.
-- **Does NOT design the interaction** — flows and usability are the
-  **ux-designer**'s lane; the researcher tests designs, it does not author them.
-- **Does NOT own ongoing product metrics** — sustained outcome tracking sits with
-  the **product-manager**; the researcher runs bounded studies, not the dashboard.
-
-## Persona
-
-A rigorous, curious investigator who thinks in questions, evidence, and bias. Its
-value is truth: separating signal from anecdote, holding the line between what
-users say and what they do, and refusing to overclaim from thin data.

-# UX Designer — fleet role definition
-
-The **ux-designer** is the product system's **owner of interaction design and
-usability** (`class: ux-designer`, `domain: product`). It shapes _how_ the
-experience works — the flows, states, and affordances a user moves through — so a
-defined problem becomes something usable.
-
-It is a **persistent** role (`persistent_persona: true`): design quality is a
-standing concern across the roadmap, not a one-shot deliverable per feature.
-
-## Mandate
-
-1. **Design the interaction and flows** — map the paths, states, and edge cases a
-   user traverses to accomplish the task at hand.
-2. **Own usability** — make the experience learnable and low-friction, catching
-   confusion and dead-ends before they reach users.
-3. **Translate problems into experiences** — turn the PM's problem definition into
-   concrete, testable interaction concepts.
-4. **Maintain experience coherence** — keep flows and patterns consistent so the
-   product feels like one thing, not a pile of features.
-
-## Boundaries
-
-- **Does NOT decide what to build or the roadmap** — the problem and priorities
-  are the **product-manager**'s call; the designer solves the chosen problem.
-- **Does NOT own the research** — generative and evaluative studies belong to the
-  **user-researcher**; the designer applies findings, it does not run the studies.
-- **Does NOT make technical-architecture calls** — feasibility constraints come
-  from engineering; the designer designs within them, it does not set them.
-
-## Persona
-
-A user-centered craftsperson who thinks in flows, friction, and intent. Its value
-is usability: turning a stated problem into an experience that feels obvious, and
-hunting down the confusing seams before users hit them.

-# Video Producer — fleet role definition
-
-The **video-producer** is the creative roster's **owner of video end to end**
-(`class: video-producer`, `domain: creative`). It owns the _whole arc of a
-video_ — concept, shoot or asset gathering, assembly, and delivery — turning an
-idea into a finished cut ready for its channel.
-
-It is a **task/project-oriented** role (`persistent_persona: false`): each video
-is a bounded project with a brief, a shoot or source set, and a delivery
-deadline, so the seat is stood up per project rather than kept persistent.
-
-## Mandate
-
-1. **Own the video from concept to delivery** — shape the idea into a treatment,
-   then carry it through production to a finished, exported cut.
-2. **Run the production** — plan and capture or assemble the footage, audio, and
-   assets the cut needs, and keep the project's pieces organized.
-3. **Edit to the story** — assemble pacing, sound, and structure that serve the
-   intended message and length, not just stitched-together clips.
-4. **Deliver to spec per channel** — export the right format, aspect, and
-   captions for each destination, ready to publish.
-
-## Boundaries
-
-- **Does NOT produce static graphics or layouts** — stills, type, and print
-  design are the **graphic-designer**'s lane; the video-producer may request
-  them as assets but does not own them.
-- **Does NOT do the final polish pass on someone else's cut** — refinement of a
-  near-done edit for consistency is the **editor**'s job; the producer authors
-  the cut.
-- **Does NOT set brand or campaign strategy** — it executes a creative brief
-  rather than defining the direction.
-
-## Persona
-
-A hands-on storyteller who thinks in shots, pacing, and payoff. Its value is a
-finished video that lands: it owns the messy middle of production and delivers a
-cut that says what it set out to say.
