 # Fleet Unattended First-Start Operations
 > **Status:** Current after issue #1264 lands. This runbook covers only Mosaic's first-run identity
 > gate; it does not install runtimes or credentials.
 ## Operational contract
 A systemd fleet unit launches under a sanitized environment with no TTY. The generated environment
 sets `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME`; Mosaic resolves that exact value against the canonical installed roster
 before writing identity files.
 If top-level identity contracts are missing, Mosaic atomically seeds them from the shipped generic
 sources:
 | Destination            | Source                          | New-file mode |
 | ---------------------- | ------------------------------- | ------------- |
 | `$MOSAIC_HOME/SOUL.md` | `$MOSAIC_HOME/defaults/SOUL.md` | `0600`        |
 | `$MOSAIC_HOME/USER.md` | `$MOSAIC_HOME/defaults/USER.md` | `0600`        |
 Creation is no-clobber and safe under concurrent seat starts. Existing regular files remain
 byte-for-byte and mode-for-mode unchanged. The runtime composer then injects the exact roster name
 and class; the generic source files grant no seat authority.
 ## Failure handling
 The fleet path never falls back to an interactive wizard. It exits nonzero before runtime execution
 when:
 - `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` is not an exact roster member;
 - a defined ambient `MOSAIC_AGENT_CLASS` is blank/whitespace or disagrees with that member's
  canonical class;
 - a missing destination has no safe regular default source;
 - a source or existing destination is a symlink (including dangling), directory, unavailable, or over the bounded size;
 - the fleet communications helper/roster cannot be validated; or
 - `USER.md` cannot be securely re-read at the point where its content is composed.
 Diagnostics begin with:
 ```text
 [mosaic] ERROR: unattended fleet identity initialization failed: ...
 ```
 Repair the exact named source, destination, roster, or helper and retry only that roster member. Do
 not delete or replace an existing personalized `SOUL.md`/`USER.md` merely to clear the check.
 ## Verification without a live seat
 The source gate is:
 ```bash
 pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic... build && \
  pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run \
    src/commands/launch-first-start.spec.ts
 ```
 The build leg is load-bearing: `dist/` is ignored, so a direct Vitest invocation could otherwise run
 absent or stale CLI output. The gate runs the exact-source built CLI in subprocesses with piped stdin,
 temporary homes, a canonical fixture roster, fake runtime/broker executables, and no provider call. It
 covers no-TTY launch, exact identity,
 private modes, no-clobber, missing/symlink defaults, unknown members, blank/mismatched class,
 portable standalone composition/wizard preservation, and concurrent first start.
 Do not use this fixture as proof that a real provider credential is present or that a package has
 been deployed. Those require separate environment-specific evidence.

 # Fleet First-Start Identity Boundary
 > **Status:** Implemented by issue #1264. Requirements: `FCM-REQ-12`, `AC-FCM-10`.
 ## Problem
 `launchRuntime()` called `checkSoul()` before runtime execution. A missing top-level `SOUL.md`
 caused `checkSoul()` to spawn a child `mosaic wizard` with inherited stdio. Under a systemd-created
 fleet pane with no TTY, that child blocked or failed before the runtime boundary even though generic
 `defaults/SOUL.md` and `defaults/USER.md` already shipped in the same `MOSAIC_HOME`.
 ## Chosen boundary
 The fix remains at `checkSoul()` and does not add flags to `yolo`, fleet commands, systemd units, or
 `start-agent-session.sh`:
 1. A present, nonblank, whitespace-exact `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` selects the fleet path.
 2. `resolveFleetIdentity()` must resolve that exact member through the existing roster/helper
   boundary, and any defined `MOSAIC_AGENT_CLASS` (including blank/whitespace) must canonicalize to
   the roster class, before any identity seed. Only undefined means absent.
 3. `lstatSync()` preflights every destination directory entry without following links, so a dangling
   link is rejected before its counterpart can be published.
 4. Safe bounded snapshots are read from only the missing contracts under `defaults/`.
 5. Each snapshot is written to a random owner-private temporary file in `MOSAIC_HOME`.
 6. `linkSync()` publishes the complete file without overwriting an existing path. `EEXIST` means a
   concurrent seat or operator won; the existing path is preserved and revalidated.
 7. Temporary files are removed, and both installed contracts are re-opened through the no-symlink
   secure-file reader before launch continues.
 8. `composeContract()` independently re-resolves the roster, securely reads fleet `USER.md` through
   a Linux descriptor at the point of use, and injects exact member identity and communications data.
 A standalone launch with no `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` retains the portable tolerant USER read and the
 interactive wizard. Fleet-only no-follow enforcement must not make supported standalone macOS
 composition depend on Linux `/proc` descriptor traversal.
 ## Identity and authority
 The copied defaults deliberately say “Mosaic agent”; they are a generic behavioral base. They are
 not the source of a fleet seat's identity. The canonical roster controls:
 - exact agent/session name;
 - canonical role/class and persona;
 - peer rows and point of contact;
 - tmux socket and helper target; and
 - communications generation.
 An unknown/padded ambient name, mismatched class, or explicitly blank/whitespace class fails before
 any file is seeded. This avoids replacing the interactive wall with a fleet of indistinguishable or
 ambiently invented identities.
 ## Concurrency and filesystem properties
 - Sources and final destinations are bounded regular files beneath `MOSAIC_HOME`; target and dangling
  symlinks are not followed.
 - New files have mode `0600`.
 - Hard-link publication is same-filesystem, atomic, and no-clobber.
 - A temporary path is removed only when this process successfully created it.
 - All required source snapshots are validated before the first destination is published, preventing
  a missing second default from leaving a partial seed.
 - Existing operator files are never chmodded or rewritten.
 ## Verification
 `src/commands/launch-first-start.spec.ts` uses the production-kind boundary: the real built CLI in a
 no-TTY subprocess, not a direct wizard test. The package `test:vitest` gate builds Mosaic before
 Vitest, while the clean-checkout command builds its workspace dependencies first, so ignored
 `dist/cli.js` cannot be absent or stale. A fake lease launcher records whether execution reached the
 runtime boundary and captures the composed prompt.
 Positive and negative cases prove the check can both proceed and refuse. Fleet composition coverage
 replaces a previously validated `USER.md` with an external symlink and proves point-of-use refusal;
 a standalone unreadable-optional-USER case proves the portable tolerant branch remains separate.
 Real Pi authentication and provider task execution remain environment tests, not claims of this
 fixture.

 ### Unattended fleet first-start amendment (#1264)
 `FCM-REQ-11` is reserved by #1256's concurrent runtime-preflight delivery. This amendment therefore
 uses the next non-colliding identifiers.
 1. `FCM-REQ-12`: A roster-owned fleet launch SHALL NOT invoke an interactive identity wizard when
   top-level `SOUL.md` or `USER.md` is absent. It SHALL initialize only missing top-level identity
   contracts from the shipped generic `defaults/` contracts without overwriting operator-owned
   bytes. The canonical roster member remains the sole source of the seat's exact name and class;
   generic defaults grant no fleet identity or authority. Missing or unsafe defaults SHALL fail
   closed with actionable diagnostics before runtime execution. Non-fleet launches retain the
   interactive identity flow.
 2. `AC-FCM-10`: A systemd-equivalent no-TTY test with a clean temporary Mosaic home SHALL prove a
   named fleet seat reaches the runtime boundary without starting `mosaic wizard`, creates
   byte-equal owner-private `SOUL.md` and `USER.md` seeds, and receives its exact roster name/class in
   composed context. Tests SHALL also prove no-clobber behavior, concurrent/idempotent first start,
   fail-closed invalid defaults, and preservation of the standalone interactive path.
 `ASSUMPTION:` `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` is the existing launch discriminator for roster-owned fleet
 processes. This amendment does not add a second fleet flag because generated fleet environments
 already set that value and the runtime composer independently resolves it against the canonical
 roster before execution.

 ## Release Integrity Workstream (RI, #1275)
 ### Problem and objective
 At `next` 476db12b (review of 2026-08-17), publication from `next` is not bound to the full verification pipeline for the same commit: the publish pipeline's publish steps depend on `build` only, while ordinary push CI excludes `next`. Public Forge/MACP paths contain false-success placeholders: a stub executor that reports `completed` with exit zero, planning/remediation gates that execute literal `true`, a review gate that echoes an approving verdict, and a gate runner that treats empty commands and unimplemented CI-provider gates as passing. Shipping UI surfaces can render a failed fetch as an empty, healthy collection.
 Objective: for alpha 0.0.50, the release cannot publish, report, or display work state that the repository has not actually verified. Decisions SDLC-D-033 through SDLC-D-038 (Jason, 2026-08-17) scope this floor; full decision text and required-behavior lists live in jarvis-brain `docs/plans/2026-08-16_mosaic-stack-sdlc-protocol.md` and `data/decisions/mosaic-stack-sdlc-protocol.json`. This section restates only the normative requirements.
 ### Normative requirements
 1. **RI-N1 Exact-commit publication verification (SDLC-D-034).** One canonical terminal verification command performs self-contained re-verification in the publish pipeline against the job's checked-out commit before any external publication effect. The command contains or invokes the complete mandatory verification set (semantic parity with the PR merge gate, including sanitization, upgrade-guard, typecheck, lint, format check, tests, and build); CI and publication do not maintain separate semantic checklists. Every publish step depends on the verification step in the executable pipeline DAG. Provider commit identity and `git rev-parse HEAD` must identify the same commit. Missing, skipped, cancelled, stale, or inconclusive checks fail closed. Documentation-only runs may skip publication but cannot bypass verification when a publication effect will occur. A negative control must prove that a broken check blocks every publish step.
 2. **RI-N2 Fail-closed Forge/MACP with explicit simulation (SDLC-D-035).** Simulation requires explicit caller intent (e.g. `--simulate`) and produces a distinct typed `simulated` state that can never satisfy dependencies, acceptance criteria, gates, merge, or release. Normal execution exits nonzero with a typed capability failure when a required executor, reviewer, command, or CI provider is absent — no stub completion, no literal-`true` gates, no synthetic approvals, no empty-command passes. A manual gate with no automation enters a waiting state; it does not pass. Positive tests prove explicit simulation still works; negative controls prove simulation and every missing-provider case cannot advance lifecycle state.
 3. **RI-N3 One transitional PRD authority (SDLC-D-036).** `@mosaicstack/prdy` structured storage under `docs/prdy/`, driven by `mosaic mission --plan`, is the authoritative PRD representation for the alpha. `mosaic prdy` either routes through the same application service or operates only as an explicit, named Markdown import/export adapter; `docs/PRD.md` is not a peer authority. `mission --plan` must persist the mission↔PRD linkage (mission id/version, PRD id/version, selected requirements). Markdown output is a generated view carrying source identity; editing it cannot mutate authority silently. Import is explicit, validated, and conflict-aware (proposed successor, never overwrite). Structural validity is separate from approval.
 4. **RI-N4 One quality-rails evaluator (SDLC-D-037).** The TypeScript quality-rails package is the sole authoritative evaluator. A complete probe inventory maps every current TypeScript and shell check to one canonical check with disposition (preserve/strengthen/retire, each named). Effective shell enforcement probes are absorbed before their independent paths retire; expected-file presence alone is not parity. The evaluator returns typed results (`passed`/`failed`/`blocked`/`error`/`not-applicable`) with check version, subject, and reason; missing implementation, missing input, unknown check, process error, timeout, or malformed output can never become `passed` or an unqualified skip. Check definitions and policy are versioned and digested. Shell commands become thin adapters with no separate verdict logic. The canonical terminal verification command (RI-N1) invokes this evaluator rather than duplicating its logic. Contract, parity, and negative-control tests are required, plus independent review of probe equivalence.
 5. **RI-N5 Consequence-aware stale UI (SDLC-D-038).** Mission Control distinguishes typed freshness states (`current`, `stale`, `partial`, `unknown`, `unavailable`) rather than inferring from empty arrays or null. A failed fetch never renders as an empty healthy collection. Last-known data may display for situational awareness only with source identity, version, and age visibly labeled; any derived completion/assurance/release verdict whose inputs are stale becomes `unknown`; all state-changing actions are disabled until fresh state loads and is revalidated. With no verified snapshot, surfaces show an explicit unavailable state. Cache corruption, cross-workspace data, schema mismatch, and version regression invalidate the snapshot. Tests cover the failure matrix (network, auth, malformed, partial, corruption, stale age, schema mismatch, recovery, stale-action rejection) with negative controls proving no case yields a current green verdict or enabled mutation.
 ### Acceptance criteria
 - AC-RI-1: A push to `next` that fails any mandatory verification step publishes nothing (no npm package, no image), demonstrated by a checked-in negative control and by pipeline evidence on a real `next` publish run where the verification step is green and every publish step depends on it.
 - AC-RI-2: With no executor/reviewer/CI provider wired, Forge and MACP normal runs exit nonzero with typed capability failures; with `--simulate`, runs complete but every result is typed `simulated` and cannot satisfy any gate, dependency, or completion state — proven by unit tests including negative controls.
 - AC-RI-3: A PRD created or revised through either `mosaic mission --plan` or `mosaic prdy` resolves to one authority under `docs/prdy/` with stable identities and versions; the mission↔PRD linkage survives restart; a Markdown export is labeled as generated and cannot silently become a second writer; divergent legacy content blocks baseline claims until explicitly resolved — proven by contract tests.
 - AC-RI-4: `quality-rails check` through any entry point (TS CLI, framework shell adapter) returns the same typed verdict for the same subject; the probe inventory names every legacy check's disposition; a deliberately broken probe fails closed — proven by contract/parity/negative-control tests and independent review of probe equivalence.
 - AC-RI-5: No shipping surface renders a failed fetch as an empty healthy state; stale/partial/unavailable states are typed, labeled, and mutation-disabled — proven by the failure-matrix tests.
 - AC-RI-6: All cards merged to `next` via squash PR with terminal-green CI; release evidence for 0.0.50 records commit, verification run, and published artifacts.
 ### Out of scope

 # Fleet Unattended First Start
 > **Status:** Current for roster-owned local fleet launches after issue #1264 lands. Runtime
 > installation and provider authentication remain separate prerequisites.
 A fleet seat started by systemd has no operator at its pane. On its first launch, Mosaic must not
 stop at the interactive identity wizard.
 ## What happens on first start
 When `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` names an exact member of the installed fleet roster and top-level identity
 contracts are absent, the launcher:
 1. validates the exact roster member, its canonical class, and the installed fleet communications
   helper;
 2. reads the shipped generic contracts from
   `~/.config/mosaic/defaults/SOUL.md` and `defaults/USER.md`;
 3. creates only the missing top-level `SOUL.md` and `USER.md` as owner-private files;
 4. preserves any existing top-level identity file byte-for-byte; and
 5. launches the runtime with the roster member's exact agent/session name and role/class in composed
   context.
 The generic defaults do **not** make every seat the same identity. They provide a shared behavioral
 base. The canonical roster row supplies each seat's exact name, class, peers, socket, and authority.
 ## Operator behavior
 A normal standalone launch without a fleet identity retains its portable configuration path and still
 uses the interactive wizard when `SOUL.md` is absent:
 ```bash
 mosaic pi
 ```
 A roster-owned seat may be started without attaching to its pane:
 ```bash
 mosaic fleet start <exact-roster-name>
 ```
 Mosaic refuses before runtime execution if the requested member is absent, its explicitly supplied
 ambient class is blank or conflicts with the roster, a required default is missing or unsafe, or an existing identity contract
 is not a safe regular file. Repair the named component and retry the same exact roster member; do not
 copy another seat's personalized identity.
 ## Separate prerequisites
 This behavior clears the Mosaic identity-wizard wall only. A clean host still needs:
 - the declared runtime installed on the pane PATH;
 - the fleet transport and generated unit assets; and
 - runtime/provider authentication appropriate to that seat.
 Those checks are separate so a successful identity bootstrap is not reported as a fully authenticated
 agent session.

 # Issue #1264 Code and Security Review
 > Branch: `fix/1264-fleet-unattended-first-start` | Base:
 > `origin/next@476db12b92971634b67fd2057b7577ee5894e449`
 ## Initial automated review
 Codex reviewed the pre-PR uncommitted delta with:
 ```bash
 ~/.config/mosaic/tools/codex/codex-code-review.sh --uncommitted \
  -o /tmp/1264-codex-code-review.json
 ```
 Result: `request-changes`, confidence `0.93`, 20 files, one should-fix. `checkSoul()` trimmed
 `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME` for pre-seed resolution while composition used the original value, so a padded
 name could seed files before later refusal.
 Remediation rejected blank/leading/trailing-whitespace values before roster lookup or writes and
 added three built-CLI no-side-effect regressions. Automated re-review approved that delta with no
 findings (confidence `0.86`). Initial security review reported risk `none` (confidence `0.91`).
 ## Formal exact-head review
 Daphne reviewed PR #1268 at exact head `43fa0477877e0d0f110da8d11c3033b40ddeb191` and filed Gitea
 review ID 168 as `REQUEST_CHANGES`. The review was source/PR-only; the canary remained untouched.
 Blocking groups:
 1. class mismatch was validated after first-start mutation;
 2. secure `USER.md` validation was discarded before ordinary path-following composition;
 3. `existsSync()` treated a dangling destination symlink as missing, allowing counterpart partial
   publication; and
 4. the built-CLI/evidence chain allowed stale ignored `dist/`, cited an unshipped canary object, and
   carried conflicting test totals/pane wording.
 The diagnostic's defaults-only repair advice was also inaccurate for roster/class/destination
 failures.
 ## Formal-review remediation
 All four blocking groups received regressions before production changes. The RED run produced four
 failures while 1,568 existing tests passed. Remediation then:
 - validates canonical name and class before seeding;
 - preflights destination directory entries with `lstatSync()` so target and dangling symlinks fail
  before publication;
 - securely reads `USER.md` through an `O_NOFOLLOW` descriptor at composition time;
 - adds a Mosaic build before package Vitest and a dependency build in the clean-checkout command;
 - replaces defaults-only advice with neutral named-component repair guidance; and
 - reconciles shipping canary provenance, pane chronology, commands, and totals.
 Remediation code review:
 ```bash
 ~/.config/mosaic/tools/codex/codex-code-review.sh --uncommitted \
  -o /tmp/1264-remediation-code-review.json
 ```
 Result: `approve`, confidence `0.88`, 6 files, no findings. Summary: the fail-closed destination
 checks, class-validation order, secure composition, and build-before-Vitest path are coherent.
 Remediation security review:
 ```bash
 ~/.config/mosaic/tools/codex/codex-security-review.sh --uncommitted \
  -o /tmp/1264-remediation-security-review.json
 ```
 Result: risk `none`, confidence `0.93`, 9 files, no critical/high/medium/low findings. The sandbox
 could not run Vitest because Vite attempted to create a temporary config artifact on its read-only
 mount (`EROFS`); executor-owned focused and full results are recorded in the QA report.
 ## Second exact-head review
 Daphne reviewed exact head `9dc90be7e13b1cd609f6df97d43d890ef5392ca0` and filed Gitea review
 ID 169 as `REQUEST_CHANGES`. Review 169 confirmed all review-168 closures, then found:
 1. the new point-of-use reader was Linux-only but had been applied to every standalone USER read,
   breaking supported non-fleet macOS composition; and
 2. explicit blank/whitespace `MOSAIC_AGENT_CLASS` was treated as absent and could seed before
   runtime, while only undefined should mean absent.
 Red-first remediation preserves legacy `readOptional()` for standalone composition, keeps descriptor
 no-follow consumption fleet-only, moves the replacement-symlink case under a valid fleet identity,
 and rejects defined blank/whitespace classes before seeding. Three blank-class CLI cases and one
 tolerant standalone composition case failed before the source change and pass after it.
 Review-169 remediation code review approved at confidence `0.90` (4 files, no findings). Security
 review reported risk `none` at confidence `0.90` (4 files, no findings). The review sandbox retained
 its known Vite `EROFS` limitation; executor-owned tests are in the QA report.
 ## Remaining review gate
 Daphne must re-review the next exact pushed head. This report cannot record that future verdict
 without changing the reviewed head, so the authoritative terminal verdict belongs to PR #1268's
 Gitea review record. Fred and goals are excluded as reviewers.

 # #1264 Unattended Fleet First-Start Verification
 > Status: **IN PROGRESS — review-169 remediation complete locally; push/re-review pending** |
 > Executor: goals | Date: 2026-08-16 | Target: isolated local fixtures only
 ## Objective
 Verify that a named fleet seat launched through a systemd-equivalent, no-TTY environment on a clean
 host reaches its runtime boundary without an interactive Mosaic identity wizard. Preserve standalone
 wizard behavior and canonical-roster ownership of exact seat identity.
 ## Source evidence accepted for local verification
 Daphne's canary Run-7 report is reachable from jarvis-brain `origin/main` at
 `8bf94afeb8c7d5df96cdd4a4508e75a1d2999710`,
 `docs/reports/2026-08-16_sbx-canary-greenfield-e2e.md`. The earlier local object
 `6c0b6fc70ae6a179a1b7ff9dedfc54e9adccd19a` is not reachable from an origin ref and is not used as
 shipping provenance. Run 7 measured:
 ```text
 systemd -> start-agent-session.sh -> mosaic yolo pi (PID 3726)
                                  -> child mosaic wizard (PID 3762)
 ```
 The pane was preserved when Run 7 was captured. Formal review ID 168 records that an authorized
 rollback occurred later. This task never accessed or altered the canary VM, pane, snapshot, or
 rollback state. Product behavior is independently tested here with temporary roots and fake runtime
 executables.
 ## Controls
 - Original base: `origin/next@476db12b92971634b67fd2057b7577ee5894e449`.
 - PR: #1268, first pushed head `43fa0477877e0d0f110da8d11c3033b40ddeb191`.
 - `DATABASE_URL` remains unset for local tests.
 - No runtime/provider credential or token value, VM, installed Mosaic tree, unit, timer, PATH profile,
  or live tmux session is read or mutated. Standard Gitea/Woodpecker wrappers authenticate metadata
  reads/writes without exposing credential values.
 - Tiny's runtime-preflight and `start-agent-session.sh` PATH work remain out of scope.
 - Held PR #1213 is not a dependency.

 ## Initial RED
 Production source remained unchanged after adding the first reproducer. The CLI was built from
 `origin/next@476db12` before the test.
 ```bash
 env -u DATABASE_URL pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run \
  src/commands/launch-first-start.spec.ts
 ```
 Exit `1`; one file and one test failed. Output included:
 ```text
 [mosaic] SOUL.md not found. Running setup wizard...
 ◆  What would you like to do?
 [mosaic] Setup failed. Run: mosaic wizard
 AssertionError: expected 1 to be +0
 ```
 The fake runtime-boundary capture was not created. Complete stdout/stderr was retained at
 `/tmp/1264-red.out` during that work session.
 ## Formal-review remediation RED
 Daphne's exact-head review ID 168 requested changes at `43fa0477`. Before changing production code,
 new regressions were run against an exact-source build. Four tests failed while the existing 1,568
 passed:
 1. valid roster name plus mismatched ambient class seeded both files before refusal;
 2. dangling `SOUL.md` allowed `USER.md` to be published before refusal;
 3. dangling `USER.md` allowed `SOUL.md` to be published before refusal; and
 4. replacing a securely validated `USER.md` with an external symlink was followed by composition.
 This establishes that all four review-168 findings were observable on the pushed implementation.
 Daphne's review ID 169 then found two more exact-head failures at `9dc90be7`. Before production
 changes, four new assertions failed:
 1. standalone composition routed an unreadable optional `USER.md` through the Linux-only descriptor
   reader instead of the legacy portable tolerant path; and
 2. explicit `MOSAIC_AGENT_CLASS` values `""`, `" "`, and tab were treated as absent, seeded both
   identity files, and reached runtime.
 The replacement-symlink case was also moved under a valid roster identity so it tests the fleet-only
 security boundary rather than standalone behavior.
 ## Final GREEN
 The production-kind command builds Mosaic and all workspace dependencies before invoking Vitest,
 because `dist/` is ignored and may otherwise be absent or stale:
 ```bash
 env -u DATABASE_URL sh -c '
  pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic... build &&
  pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run \
    src/commands/fleet-first-start-identity.spec.ts \
    src/commands/launch-first-start.spec.ts \
    src/commands/launch.spec.ts \
    src/commands/compose-contract.spec.ts \
    src/config/file-adapter.test.ts \
    src/cli-smoke.spec.ts
 '
 ```
 Exit `0`: `6/6` files, `128/128` tests.
 - 15 real-CLI/no-TTY tests cover exact roster name/class, byte-equal `0600` seeds, no-clobber,
  partial seed, missing/symlink defaults, unknown/padded/blank name, mismatched or explicitly blank
  class, standalone wizard preservation, and four concurrent starts.
 - 12 direct filesystem tests cover complete publication, existing operators, idempotence, source
  prevalidation, target and dangling destination links, invalid roots, oversized input, and
  unexpected link errors.
 - Composition coverage deterministically replaces a valid fleet seat's validated `USER.md` with an
  external symlink and requires refusal at point of use. A separate standalone case proves tolerant
  optional composition remains outside the Linux-only fleet reader.
 Full package gate (which rebuilds Mosaic itself after the clean-checkout dependency build):
 ```bash
 env -u DATABASE_URL pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic run test:vitest
 ```
 Exit `0`: `88/88` files, `1,577/1,577` tests.
 Focused helper + point-of-use coverage:
 ```text
 2 files, 53/53 tests
 Statements 97.84% | Branches 91.66% | Functions 100% | Lines 97.84%
 Exit 0
 ```
 Final repository gates after remediation:
 ```text
 pnpm preflight    exit 0
 pnpm typecheck    45/45 tasks, exit 0
 pnpm lint         25/25 tasks, exit 0
 pnpm build        25/25 tasks, exit 0
 pnpm format:check exit 0
 git diff --check  exit 0
 ```
 Pre-PR targeted shell runs on the unchanged shell surfaces also passed:
 ```text
 bash framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh                 exit 0 locally
 bash framework/tools/quality/scripts/test-install-migration.sh         21 passed, 0 failed
 bash framework/tools/_scripts/test-mosaic-init-rce.sh                   PASS
 ```
 The aggregate local `test:framework-shell` run stopped at `invariant_r_unittest.py`: installed
 operator-global Pi is `0.84.2`, while the invariant is measured for `0.84.1`. Later aggregate stages
 remain unmeasured except the targeted suites above. Root `pnpm test` remains locally **UNTESTED**
 because this checkout prohibits the PostgreSQL-dependent gateway isolation path.
 ## Review and security evidence
 - Initial Codex review found padded-name mutation-before-refusal; it was fixed with three
  no-side-effect regressions.
 - Codex review of the formal-review remediation: `approve`, confidence `0.88`, 6 files, no findings.
 - Codex security review of the remediation: risk `none`, confidence `0.93`, 9 files, no findings.
  Its sandbox could not execute Vitest because Vite attempted a write on a read-only mount; the
  executor-owned results above are the test evidence.
 - Daphne formal review ID 168 at exact head `43fa0477`: `REQUEST_CHANGES`, four blocking groups; all
  closed by review 169.
 - Daphne formal review ID 169 at exact head `9dc90be7`: `REQUEST_CHANGES`, two blocking groups
  (standalone portability and explicit blank class). Both now have red-first regressions and local
  green remediation.
 - Codex review of review-169 remediation: `approve`, confidence `0.90`, 4 files, no findings.
 - Codex security review of review-169 remediation: risk `none`, confidence `0.90`, 4 files, no
  findings. Exact-new-head Daphne re-review is pending until that head is pushed.
 ## CI evidence and external blocker
 Pipeline 2445 ran against exact first head `43fa0477`:
 - install, sanitization, upgrade guard, typecheck, lint, and format passed;
 - Mosaic Vitest passed `88/88`, `1,568/1,568`; and
 - the test step emitted exactly one `FAIL:` line:
 ```text
 FAIL: host provides 'pi' in the system path; missing-binary cases are not measurable here
 ```
 That line comes from the inherited `test-start-agent-session.sh` CI-fit guard, not #1264. Fred filed
 the correction as PR #1270. Its pipeline 2448 is terminal green and proves the four formerly masked
 suites execute, but #1270 is not merged, so `next` still carries the failing chain. A new #1268
 pipeline 2449 at `9dc90be7` reproduced the same single inherited `FAIL:` after Mosaic passed
 `1,573/1,573`. A new pipeline is pending the review-169 remediation push. Terminal-green #1268 CI is
 not claimed.
 PR #1268's envelope was read back as `user.login=mos-dt-0`; its commit is explicitly authored and
 committed by `goals <[email protected]>`. No goals Gitea login exists on this host, and no
 other principal was borrowed. The cross-wrapper principal defect is tracked in #1272.
 ## Explicitly untested
 - Canary VM remediation/restart: **UNTESTED and prohibited**.
 - Real Pi authentication/provider prompt and task execution: **UNTESTED**.
 - PR #1213 composition layer: **UNTESTED and not required**.
 - Deployment/published npm behavior: **UNTESTED until merge/release**.
 - Local PostgreSQL execution/migration: **UNTESTED and prohibited**.
 The local gate proves Mosaic crosses its identity boundary and reaches a fake lease-runtime boundary;
 it does not claim provider readiness, deployment, or a currently running canary seat.

 # #1264 — Unattended fleet first start
 ## Tracking
 - Issue: `mosaicstack/stack#1264`
 - PR: `mosaicstack/stack#1268`
 - Branch: `fix/1264-fleet-unattended-first-start`
 - Base: `origin/next@476db12b92971634b67fd2057b7577ee5894e449`
 - First pushed head: `43fa0477877e0d0f110da8d11c3033b40ddeb191`
 - Current remediation worktree: `/var/home/jason.woltje/agent-work/1264-review2-remediation`
 - Coordinator: Fred; reviewer must be neither Fred nor this implementation seat.
 - `docs/TASKS.md` is orchestrator-owned and is not modified by this worker.
 The original `/var/home/jason.woltje/agent-work/1264-unattended-first-start` and first remediation
 worktrees were removed without force after each pushed head and clean state were verified. The
 Fred-authorized plain-Git worktree exception was reused for exact-head review remediation because
 `/src` remains unavailable.
 ## Objective
 A roster-owned fleet seat launched from systemd on a clean host must cross Mosaic's first-run identity
 gate without a human or TTY, while retaining exact name/class from the canonical roster and
 preserving the standalone interactive wizard.
 ## Intake and boundaries
 - Shipping canary provenance is jarvis-brain `origin/main` commit
  `8bf94afeb8c7d5df96cdd4a4508e75a1d2999710`. The earlier local `6c0b6fc...` object is not used.
 - The Run-7 pane was preserved when evidence was captured; formal review records a later authorized
  rollback. This task never accessed or altered the canary.
 - Tiny's concurrent runtime-preflight, `start-agent-session.sh`, and #1258 PATH seam remain untouched.
 - Held PR #1213 is not a dependency.
 - No runtime/provider credential values or provider calls, installed-host changes, PostgreSQL, unit,
  timer, or profile mutation. Tests use temporary roots and fake executables only; Gitea/Woodpecker
  metadata operations use standard wrappers without exposing credentials.
 ## Requirements and design
 - PRD IDs: `FCM-REQ-12`, `AC-FCM-10`; `FCM-REQ-11` is reserved by #1256.
 - A present fleet name must be nonblank, whitespace-exact, and resolve through the canonical roster.
 - Any defined ambient class, including blank/whitespace, must canonicalize to the roster class before
  mutation; only undefined means absent.
 - Preflight all destination directory entries with no-follow existence semantics so dangling links
  fail before counterpart publication.
 - Seed only missing top-level files from bounded regular defaults with owner-private, atomic,
  no-clobber hard links.
 - Generic defaults are behavior, not identity or authority.
 - Securely consume fleet `USER.md` through a Linux descriptor at composition time.
 - Standalone composition retains the portable tolerant USER read and missing identity retains the
  wizard.
 ## Progress
 - [x] Issue, canary report, Tiny collision state, and PRD read/amended.
 - [x] Initial production-kind RED captured with a real built CLI and no TTY.
 - [x] Implementation, tests, user/admin/developer docs, QA, and indexes delivered.
 - [x] Initial automated review finding (padded name before write) remediated.

 - [x] All four review-168 groups reproduced red before remediation and passed at `9dc90be7`.
 - [x] Daphne review ID 169 completed on `9dc90be7`: review-168 closures confirmed; two new blockers.

 - [ ] Commit/push second remediation with explicit goals author/committer; verify remote object/content.
 - [ ] Daphne exact-new-head re-review.
 - [ ] Terminal #1268 CI. Pipeline 2445's only `FAIL:` was the inherited Pi-PATH CI-fit guard; PR
  #1270's pipeline 2448 is green, but #1270 is not merged.
 - [ ] Remove the clean remediation worktree after push.
 ## Test evidence
 ### Initial RED
 The built `origin/next` CLI entered `mosaic wizard`, rendered `What would you like to do?`, exited 1,
 and never created the fake runtime-boundary capture.
 ### Formal-review RED
 Against exact first-head production code, four new tests failed while 1,568 existing tests passed:
 class mismatch mutated before refusal; each dangling destination left its counterpart; and a
 replacement `USER.md` symlink was consumed by composition. Review-169 RED then proved standalone
 composition hit the Linux-only reader and three explicit blank/whitespace class cases seeded and
 launched.
 ### Final local GREEN
 - Exact-source focused gate: `6/6` files, `128/128` tests.
 - Full exact-source Mosaic Vitest: `88/88` files, `1,577/1,577` tests.
 - Helper + point-of-use coverage: `53/53`; 97.84% statements/lines, 91.66% branches, 100% functions.
 - Root preflight passed; typecheck `45/45`, lint `25/25`, build `25/25`.
 - Initial targeted shell gates passed: start-agent-session, install migration `21/21`, init-RCE.
 - Local aggregate framework shell stops at operator-global Pi `0.84.2` versus measured `0.84.1`.
 - Local root `pnpm test` remains unrun because the checkout prohibits its PostgreSQL-dependent path.
 The full evidence and command boundaries are in
 `docs/reports/qa/2026-08-16-1264-unattended-first-start.md`.

 # Scratchpad — RI-050 orchestrator (jarvis, dragon-lin)
 Mission: alpha 0.0.50 release-integrity floor. Issue #1275. Base `next` @ 476db12b.
 Design SSOT: jarvis-brain `docs/plans/2026-08-16_mosaic-stack-sdlc-protocol.md` (SDLC-D-033..038).
 ## Mode (Jason's directives)
 - Orchestrator: jarvis (this session, dragon-lin). NOT mos-claude; work stays on this host.
 - Workers: local pi headless — `pi --model zai/glm-5.3:high -p` in the card's worktree, tools read,bash,edit,write.
 - Delegation override of stack AGENTS.md `agent` column: rows carry `pi-glm-5.3` (outside cron table so no auto-claim).
 - Target branch: `next`. Cards branch from `origin/next`, squash-merge via PR.
 ## Operational constraints (measured this session)
 - Main checkout at `/home/jwoltje/src/mosaic-stack` is a dirty diverged `main` (ahead 1139/behind 711) — NEVER touched. All work in `/home/jwoltje/src/mosaic-stack-worktrees/<branch>`.
 - Disk: /home 187G free. /tmp only 8.7G — keep pnpm stores/node_modules under /home.
 - `main` and `next` have DIVERGED; PRs target `next`.
 - Identity: pin `GITEA_LOGIN=mosaicstack-jarvis` for all wrapper ops. Issue #1275 verified authored by @jarvis.
 - `ci-queue-wait.sh` on this host is fail-open (board: fix #1032 not installed) — substitute SHA-status checks via `/commits/{sha}/status` and diff failing step names.
 - CI on PRs runs `pull_request` pipelines (any branch) incl. ci-postgres service. Push CI runs on main only; publish runs on push/tag to next + manual.
 - Wrapper gaps on this host per board (7 gaps; e.g. no pr-review-list, issue-assign broken, pr-merge makes no trailers): verify outcomes by reading back provider state, never trust rc alone.
 - Publish pipeline currently: install → build → publish-npm/publish-next-npm (+image). No verify. CI steps: install, sanitization, upgrade-guard, typecheck, lint, format, test, ci-postgres.
 ## Budget
 Soft cap 250K. Projected 190K across 10 cards. Track per-card used vs estimate in TASKS.md notes.

 # HANDOFF — RI-050 continuation (written 2026-08-17 ~08:45 UTC, jarvis/dragon-lin)
 You are taking over the alpha 0.0.50 release-integrity workstream in place. Everything you
 need is on the remote. Read this whole file, then `docs/release-integrity/TASKS.md` (same
 branch), then the PRD section (`docs/PRD.md` § Release Integrity Workstream, same branch).
 ## Identity / mode
 - Orchestrator identity: `jarvis` (dragon-lin). You continue as the RI-050 orchestrator under
  whatever identity Jason gives you — if you are NOT jarvis, say so in comms and PR bodies.
 - Jason's standing directives for this mission: work happens on THIS repo (mosaicstack/stack),
  PRs target `next` (NOT main), workers are local pi headless sessions on
  `zai/glm-5.3:high`. Do not hand this to mos-claude. Do not borrow other seats' lanes.
 - All wrapper ops: pin `GITEA_LOGIN=mosaicstack-jarvis` (issue #1275 was verified authored by
  @jarvis; keep identity consistent or verify yours with issue-view and READ BACK user.login).
 - CI substitution rule (this host's ci-queue-wait.sh is fail-open; fix #1032 not installed):
  judge CI by SHA-status via `/api/v1/repos/mosaicstack/stack/commits/{sha}/status` or the
  woodpecker API (`pipeline-status.sh -r mosaicstack/stack -n N -f json`), and DIFF THE
  FAILING STEP NAMES rather than trusting rc.

  vacuous true/echo gates replaced, closed ForgeOutcome set, 116 tests green incl. 16 new).
  ORCHESTRATOR REVIEW NOT YET DONE — your first job. Review the diff
  (1391 insertions across forge src), check the fail-closed paths and that simulated
  results cannot satisfy any consumer, run `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/forge test`.
 ## The one blocker
 Every `next` PR pipeline is red on ONE assertion:
 `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh:103` ("host provides 'pi'
 in the system path"). Pre-existing at base; affects PRs #1276/#1277/#1278 identically.
 fred's PR #1270 ("unblocks every PR on next") is green and open — it is HIS to merge; do not
 merge it yourself. jarvis sent comms (`comms/20260817T052148Z__from-jarvis__650fe8.md` in
 jarvis-brain) asking merge timing; no reply yet as of handoff. Merge gates for ALL RI PRs
 queue behind #1270 landing. Until then: review/develop freely, merge nothing that needs the
 green gate (docs-only #1276 arguably could merge red-lane with Jason's explicit call — ask,
 don't assume).
 ## Remaining DAG (docs/release-integrity/TASKS.md is canonical)
 Wave 2 (next): RI-2-002 MACP fail-closed (brief pattern: mirror RI-2-001 for
 packages/macp/src/gate-runner.ts — empty commands, stub executors, unimplemented CI-provider
 gates fail closed; explicit simulate) and RI-4-001 PRD authority (one PRD service;
@mosaicstack/prdy docs/prdy authoritative via `mosaic mission --plan`; `mosaic prdy` routes
 or becomes named Markdown adapter; mission<->PRD linkage persists — see PRD RI-N3).
 Wave 3: RI-3-001 probe inventory (docs), RI-5-001 web stale-safety.
 Wave 4: RI-1-002 negative-control tests, RI-3-002 TS evaluator absorbs shell probes.
 Final: RI-V-001 evidence pack (real green next publish run post-gate + all cards verified).
 ## Worker mechanics (measured, reuse)
 - Dispatch: create worktree `git -C /home/jwoltje/src/mosaic-stack worktree add
 /home/jwoltje/src/mosaic-stack-worktrees/<id> -b <branch> origin/next`, write a brief to
  /var/tmp/ri-050/, then run from INSIDE the worktree:
  `pi -p --no-session --model zai/glm-5.3:high --tools read,bash,edit,write "$(cat brief.md)"`
  (pi has NO -f flag — pass the brief as a positional message; first dispatch died on that).
 - Briefs for 1-001/2-001 are at /var/tmp/ri-050/ on dragon-lin (may not survive; the
  pattern is fully described above and in TASKS.md).
 - Briefs must carry: worktree path, branch, base, requirements, known base-red list (so the
  worker doesn't chase it), gates to run, PR creation command with GITEA_LOGIN pin, "do NOT
  merge, do NOT touch docs/TASKS.md", and the JSON report format.
 - Verify worker claims: read the PR, run their tests yourself, parse pipeline step names.
 ## Do-not-touch
 - Main checkout at /home/jwoltje/src/mosaic-stack (dirty diverged main) — never touch.
 - fred's open PRs (#1270 and others) — review evidence welcome, merging his is not yours.
 - Other RI PRs' authors' lanes: #1277/#1278 are yours to gate and merge ONCE lane is green
  and review is recorded.
 - Never `--no-verify`; never bypass the wrapper-fails-closed rule (wrapper failure ⇒
  `blocked + report exact command + stop`).
 ## Session-restore command sequence
 1. `git -C /home/jwoltje/src/mosaic-stack-worktrees/ri-050 fetch origin --prune`
 2. Read this file + `docs/release-integrity/TASKS.md` + PRD section.
 3. Check PR states (#1270, #1276, #1277, #1278) and lane CI (SHA-status per above).
 4. Review RI-2-001 (PR #1278) if not yet done; then dispatch wave 2.

 # CONTINUATION — fargo (sb-it-1-dt)
 Orchestrator seat is now **fargo** on sb-it-1-dt (Jason, 2026-08-17): Claude seat, worktree discipline
 per fred's ruling (`~/agent-work/<slug>`, create → work → commit → push → remove as one act; the
 helper's `/src` refusal is a web1 convention, does not bind here). fred supports; lane rulings are
 his. Workers remain local pi `zai/glm-5.3:high` + limited Claude per Jason.
 ## 2026-08-17 — RI-2-001 independent review DONE
 - **PR #1278 APPROVED** (Gitea review 172, pinned to head 99b8f6ea). Executed evidence, not read-only:
  forge suite 116/116 at head (matches PR claim), forge lint green, forge typecheck green after
  building `@mosaicstack/macp` dist (TS2307 on bare `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` is a
  minimal-install build-order artifact — the macp import is type-only, vitest passes unbuilt; CI
  installs build workspace deps, hence green there), **workspace typecheck 45/45 at head**,
  consumer sweep: no external type consumers of RunManifest/StageStatus/ForgeTaskResult/
  TaskExecutor; only importer of the package is packages/mosaic via registerForgeCommand
  (smoke test asserts registration/help only — cannot break). Digest gate (shaggy's) before==after
  with both-arm reactivity controls.
 - CI red on #1276/#1277/#1278: lane-wide `test` failure only
  (test-start-agent-session.sh:103, fred's guard mis-wired; #1270 unwires it). Fred measured log
  content: one real byte-identical failure per pipeline (2456/2457/2458); 13 of ~14 `FAIL` grep
  hits are passing fail-loud test NAMES. **The red carries no information about the RI changes.**
 - Non-blocking finding: README L141-143 + skills/mosaic-forge/SKILL.md document bare
  `mosaic forge run`/`resume`, which now exits 1 FORGE_NO_EXECUTOR — fast-follow docs touch.
 - **Identity incident, ruled on by fred:** review 172 recorded under shared host principal
  mos-dt-0, not fargo. Mechanism (measured, wrapper source): pr-review.sh resolves its acting login
  from the tea login list only; no fargo tea login on this host → silent host-default fallback;
  MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY is only read in detect-platform.sh get_gitea_token's fallback arm, never
  reached. Exact-id read-back verifies against the writing token, so it passed while attribution
  was wrong — durable-provenance machinery proves the write, not the seat. Fred's ruling: review
  172 stands (substance/verdict/pin correct; label wrong); NO re-approval (one approval,
  annotated, is the stronger record); fred posts the provenance correction under @fred with
  --login fred-ms (hard-fail path); no fargo tea login ever (freeze + Jason's to authorize);
  tooling gap filed by fred. Also explains (does not reopen) #1228's mos-dt-0 attribution.
 - Merge gate: all RI PRs queue behind fred's green #1270 (Jason's call).
 ## Next
 1. Wave 2 dispatch: RI-2-002 (MACP fail-closed, mirror RI-2-001 pattern for
   packages/macp/src/gate-runner.ts) + RI-4-001 (PRD authority). Two parallel workers max.
 2. Docs fast-follow (README + mosaic-forge skill) — fold into #1276 or a tiny docs card.
 3. RI-V-001 evidence at the end.
