-## Pi Persistent Goal Loop (#1150)
-
-### Problem and objective
-
-A Pi agent can stop after a plausible-looking answer even when the operator's broader objective is
-not complete, and ordinary compaction can weaken or omit the original objective. Mosaic needs an
-optional, operator-controlled goal loop that keeps a Pi session oriented, checks progress at native
-lifecycle boundaries, and resumes work until completion is verified or a bounded safety state is
-reached.
-
-The objective is a Mosaic-owned Pi extension deployed from the framework into
-`~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/`. It must not install into or depend on `~/.pi/agent/extensions/`.
-
-### Scope
-
-#### In scope
-
-1. `PGL-REQ-01`: The framework SHALL ship a dedicated Pi goal extension under
-   `packages/mosaic/framework/runtime/pi/`, seed it under `$MOSAIC_HOME/runtime/pi/`, and make
-   `mosaic pi` load it alongside the core Mosaic extension when present.
-2. `PGL-REQ-02`: `/goal` SHALL support setting a goal plus status, pause, resume, cancel, and help
-   operations without silently replacing an active goal.
-3. `PGL-REQ-03`: Active branch-specific goal state SHALL be persisted in Pi custom session entries,
-   restored on session start and tree navigation, and never rely on a compaction summary as its
-   source of truth.
-4. `PGL-REQ-04`: A hidden goal contract SHALL be injected through Pi's `context` event before every
-   model request so it remains effective across tool turns, retries, and post-compaction requests.
-5. `PGL-REQ-05`: The harness SHALL inspect every `turn_end` and successful `session_compact` event.
-   A structured terminating goal-report tool SHALL capture `continue`, evidence-bearing `achieved`,
-   or `blocked` status without requiring a redundant model turn.
-6. `PGL-REQ-06`: An achievement claim SHALL remain provisional until a second consecutive
-   evidence-bearing verification report. Any continuation report or successful compaction during
-   verification SHALL reset the verification sequence.
-7. `PGL-REQ-07`: Continuation SHALL be initiated at safe lifecycle boundaries, primarily
-   `agent_settled`; manual compaction and restored active sessions may schedule a deferred idle
-   continuation without re-entering compaction handlers.
-8. `PGL-REQ-08`: The loop SHALL have operator cancellation plus bounded turn and repeated-no-progress
-   limits. Exhausted or blocked goals pause rather than continuing indefinitely.
-9. `PGL-REQ-09`: Framework installation and update SHALL preserve normal manifest ownership: the
-   goal extension is framework-owned under `runtime/**`, while no goal extension or configuration
-   asset is created or modified under the operator's main Pi configuration. Pi remains the owner of
-   its native session files used by `appendEntry()`.
-
-#### Out of scope
-
-1. A mathematical guarantee that an arbitrary natural-language goal is semantically complete.
-2. Automatically executing user-supplied shell predicates or accepting executable validation code in
-   `/goal` arguments.
-3. Restarting Pi after process, host, or supervisor failure; the existing Mosaic fleet/runtime
-   supervisor owns process durability.
-4. Gateway, database, web UI, Discord, or cross-harness goal orchestration in this slice.
-
-### User and stakeholder requirements
-
-- An operator can start a goal from Pi and see its current phase, evidence, limits, and latest report.
-- The agent remains oriented after each turn and compaction until verified, paused, blocked,
-  exhausted, or cancelled.
-- Local testing uses a file under `~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/`; the feature never writes an
-  extension asset to `~/.pi/agent/extensions/`.
-- Framework updates deploy the same reviewed extension source through Mosaic's existing manifest
-  sync path.
-
-### Non-functional requirements
-
-1. **Safety:** bounded continuation, explicit cancellation, no arbitrary command execution, and no
-   completion without non-empty reported evidence.
-2. **Reliability:** serialized continuation scheduling, branch-aware restoration, compaction-safe
-   context injection, and stale-timer cancellation on session shutdown.
-3. **Performance:** no extra nested judge-model request on every turn; structured reporting uses the
-   active agent's final terminating tool call.
-4. **Observability:** Pi status/notifications expose phase and bounded counters without recording
-   credentials or hidden model reasoning.
-5. **Maintainability:** the state machine is deterministic and behavior-tested independently from Pi
-   provider/network access.
-
-### Acceptance criteria
-
-1. `AC-PGL-01`: A framework-sync fixture installs the extension at
-   `$MOSAIC_HOME/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts`, and launcher tests prove both Mosaic Pi extensions are
-   emitted in deterministic order while absent optional files remain backward-compatible.
-2. `AC-PGL-02`: Command tests prove set/status/pause/resume/cancel behavior, active-goal replacement
-   refusal, and bounded input handling.
-3. `AC-PGL-03`: Lifecycle tests prove every turn is recorded, active context is injected on every
-   request, two evidence-bearing achievement reports are required, and `agent_settled` continues an
-   unmet goal without duplicate scheduling.
-4. `AC-PGL-04`: Compaction and restoration tests prove goal state survives, verification is reset and
-   rechecked after compaction, manual compaction continuation is deferred until idle, and tree/session
-   branch state is reconstructed correctly.
-5. `AC-PGL-05`: Limit tests prove max-turn and repeated-no-progress exhaustion stop autonomous
-   continuation, while pause/cancel/blocked states do not restart.
-6. `AC-PGL-06`: Focused tests, package typecheck/lint/test, repository quality gates, a local Pi load
-   smoke test from `~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/`, independent review, and terminal-green CI pass before
-   issue #1150 closes.
-
-### Constraints, risks, and assumptions
-
-- Dependency: Pi's extension API must continue to provide `registerCommand`, `registerTool`,
-  `context`, `turn_end`, `agent_settled`, `session_compact`, session custom entries, and terminating
-  tool results.
-- Risk: the working agent can overstate completion. Mitigation: structured evidence, a mandatory
-  second verification pass, explicit semantic limitations, and operator-visible reports.
-- Risk: an impossible goal can consume unbounded resources. Mitigation: hard turn/no-progress bounds
-  and paused terminal states.
-- Risk: automatic continuation can race compaction or session replacement. Mitigation: drive from
-  `agent_settled`, defer idle restarts, generation-check timers, and clear timers on shutdown.
-- `ASSUMPTION:` Two consecutive evidence-bearing reports are the initial local verification policy;
-  rationale: it provides a real recheck without doubling every turn's model cost. Future policy may
-  add independent or deterministic validators.
-- `ASSUMPTION:` Default limits are 40 turns and 6 repeated no-progress reports, configurable only by
-  bounded Mosaic environment settings; rationale: useful persistence with a finite autonomous budget.
-- `ASSUMPTION:` Documentation remains canonical in-repo for this slice; no external docs publication
-  is requested.
-
-### Testing and delivery intent
-
-Use TDD for the deterministic controller and lifecycle invariants. Test with fake Pi lifecycle
-objects first, then run a local load/smoke test from the deployed Mosaic path. Deliver source, tests,
-launcher wiring, framework/runtime documentation, user/developer guides, and sitemap updates in one
-reviewed squash PR to `main` with terminal-green CI.

-### Fleet git identity launch propagation (#1043)
-
-#### Problem and objective
-
-A fleet seat can have a registered per-agent Git credential while its launched runtime process lacks
-`MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY`. The credential resolver then cannot select the seat identity reliably, which
-blocks repository operations on fail-closed estates and can fall through to an unrelated identity on
-estates where that refusal is not active. The objective is to make Git identity a deterministic,
-roster-derived part of the generated launch projection and prove it reaches the launched process.
-
-#### Normative requirements
-
-1. `FGI-REQ-01`: Every generated fleet agent projection SHALL declare
-   `MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY=<MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME>`; a differing or unsafe identity SHALL fail closed before
-   tmux launch.
-2. `FGI-REQ-02`: The clean `/usr/bin/env -i` pane boundary SHALL pass every variable declared by the
-   generated projection, including `MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY`, to the launched runtime process.
-3. `FGI-REQ-03`: A behavioral integration test SHALL set-compare the complete generated projection
-   against the launched process environment. Source-text/string-presence assertions are insufficient.
-4. `FGI-REQ-04`: Verification SHALL include RED-first evidence and a delete-the-subject mutation that
-   removes Git-identity pane propagation and makes the behavioral test fail.
-
-#### Acceptance criteria
-
-1. `AC-FGI-01`: A launched seat process contains every key/value pair declared by its generated
-   environment projection, including the roster-derived Git identity.
-2. `AC-FGI-02`: Missing, unsafe, or split Git identity is rejected before a tmux session is created.
-3. `AC-FGI-03`: Focused launcher and generated-environment tests, repository quality gates,
-   independent review, and the required RED/green/R7 evidence are recorded before push.
-
-### Framework shell assertion portability (#1098)
-
-#### Problem and objective
-
-The blocking framework-shell chain can report that a pane command omitted `/usr/bin/env -i` even when
-`-i` matched successfully. A short-circuiting `grep -q` under `set -o pipefail` may close its pipe after
-the match and cause an upstream producer to exit with SIGPIPE, turning a valid semantic result into a
-nonzero aggregate pipeline. The objective is to inspect the captured NUL-delimited argv directly and
-make failures carry the observed records needed for diagnosis.
-
-#### Normative requirements
-
-1. `FSP-REQ-01`: The pane-boundary test SHALL validate an adjacent `/usr/bin/env`, `-i` argv pair from
-   the authoritative NUL-delimited tmux capture without a short-circuit pipeline whose upstream status
-   can override a successful match.
-2. `FSP-REQ-02`: Missing, reversed, or non-adjacent boundary tokens SHALL fail, while valid boundaries
-   SHALL remain valid regardless of trailing argv size, pipe capacity, process scheduling, or host/CI
-   utility implementation.
-3. `FSP-REQ-03`: A failed boundary check SHALL print stable indexed, shell-escaped observed argv records
-   before exiting nonzero; the fixture SHALL continue to contain generated non-secret launch data only.
-4. `FSP-REQ-04`: Verification SHALL include RED-first large-payload evidence, negative token-order
-   controls, the complete focused launcher suite, canonical Woodpecker CI, and independent review.
-
-#### Acceptance criteria
-
-1. `AC-FSP-01`: A large captured argv with adjacent `/usr/bin/env`, `-i` passes even when the former
-   `grep -q` pipeline returns nonzero from an upstream SIGPIPE.
-2. `AC-FSP-02`: Missing executable, missing flag, and detached/reversed flag fixtures return nonzero and
-   emit the indexed observed argv.
-3. `AC-FSP-03`: The focused suite passes on the development host and CI image, and the merged-main
-   Woodpecker pipeline is terminal green before #1098 closes.

+# npm `@next` prerelease lane
+
+Status: **IMPLEMENTED**
+
+## Current behavior
+
+`tools/install.sh --next` provides the prerelease integration lane for the permanent `next` branch.
+
+The lane is fast-by-default:
+
+1. Install framework files from the `next` source archive.
+2. Resolve the Gitea npm registry `next` dist-tag for the globally installed packages:
+
+   ```bash
+   npm view @mosaicstack/gateway@next version
+   npm view @mosaicstack/mosaic@next version
+   ```
+
+3. Require both resolved versions to share the same `next.<pipeline>` suffix, then install the exact resolved versions.
+4. If either `@next` package is missing, unreachable, mismatched, or fails to install, fall back to the source-build path at `next`.
+
+`--next` never hard-fails solely because the prerelease npm dist-tag is unavailable.
+
+## Published packages
+
+The `next` publish pipeline publishes non-private `@mosaicstack/*` packages to the Mosaic Gitea npm registry:
+
+```text
+https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/
+```
+
+Observed `next` dist-tags after enabling the pipeline:
+
+```text
+@mosaicstack/mosaic@next  -> 0.0.49-next.1633
+@mosaicstack/gateway@next -> 0.0.7-next.1633
+```
+
+The gateway also publishes a Docker image as `gateway:sha-<short>` on `next` merges. The installer fast path uses the npm gateway package when available; the Docker image is for deployed gateway/runtime harness flows.
+
+## Explicit source lanes
+
+Source builds remain available and are still the authority for explicit ref validation:
+
+- `--dev` always builds from source.
+- `--ref <ref>` / `MOSAIC_REF=<ref>` wins over `--next` and uses the source path for that exact ref.
+
+## Pipeline shape
+
+1. Trigger on `next` merges.
+2. Compute the next prerelease version from the upcoming stable version plus the Woodpecker pipeline number (`<target-stable>-next.<CI_PIPELINE_NUMBER>`).
+3. Build and publish non-private packages in CI.
+4. Publish to the Mosaic Gitea npm registry with dist-tag `next`.
+5. Keep `latest` untouched; only main/release promotion can update `latest`.
+6. Publish gateway Docker images from `next` as `gateway:sha-<short>` only.
+
+## Guardrails
+
+- `@next` is mutable prerelease convenience, not a deployment pin.
+- Stable installs continue to use `@latest`.
+- Contributor validation remains available through `--dev --ref <branch>`.
+- Pipeline output traces every prerelease package back to the source commit on `next`.
+- The installer falls back to source rather than hard-failing on prerelease registry issues.

-## Pi Persistent Goal Extension
-
-The source of the Mosaic-owned Pi goal controller is:
-
-```text
-packages/mosaic/framework/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts
-```
-
-The framework manifest classifies `runtime/**` as framework-owned. Both the bash installer and the
-TypeScript file adapter therefore deploy the same reviewed source to:
-
-```text
-$MOSAIC_HOME/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts
-# default: ~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts
-```
-
-Do not copy or link this extension into `~/.pi/agent/extensions/`. The launcher function
-`discoverPiExtensionArgs()` emits the core `mosaic-extension.ts` first and the optional
-`goal-extension.ts` second, preserving compatibility with an older installed framework that does
-not have the goal file yet.
-
-### Lifecycle design
-

-| ------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `registerCommand('goal')`      | Set, inspect, pause, resume, or cancel one branch-specific goal                   |
-| `registerTool(...)`            | Record a terminating structured progress report with evidence                     |
-| `context`                      | Inject the active goal contract before every provider request                     |
-| `turn_end`                     | Record every turn, reject mixed final reports, and enforce the turn bound         |
-| `agent_settled`                | Start one deduplicated continuation only after Pi has no retry/compact/queue work |
-| `session_compact`              | Record the compact check, reset provisional verification, and defer idle work     |
-| `session_start`/`session_tree` | Rebuild state from custom entries on the active branch                            |
-| `session_shutdown`             | Invalidate deferred callbacks and clear UI state                                  |
-
-State is appended as `mosaic-goal-state` custom entries, which do not enter model context. The
-`context` hook creates a fresh hidden `mosaic-goal-context` message for each request instead of
-trusting compaction summaries. The `mosaic_goal_report` result uses `terminate: true`; when it is the
-sole final tool call, Pi avoids an unnecessary model response before the controller decides whether
-to verify, continue, or stop.
-
-Before state is appended or displayed, the controller applies bounded credential-pattern redaction
-to the goal statement, report summary/evidence/next step, and stop reason. Fingerprints are computed
-over redacted report content. Pi session entries are append-only, so a credential-bearing legacy
-entry cannot honestly be erased by the extension: restoration fails closed, emits a warning, and
-requires removal of the affected session before setting a new goal. This is defense-in-depth rather
-than a secret-storage contract, and it does not rewrite Pi's separate model-message/tool-call
-history. Goal prompts tell the agent not to submit credentials or raw sensitive output, and tests use
-canaries to prove known forms do not reach new custom entries, status text, context, or tool details
-while ordinary typed fields such as `token: string` remain intact.
-
-Completion remains evidence-gated but semantic: two consecutive `achieved` reports are required,
-and the second run is explicitly a verification pass. This avoids an extra judge-model request after
-every turn. Deterministic validator commands are intentionally not accepted as `/goal` input in this
-slice, so never describe this mechanism as proof of arbitrary natural-language completion.
-
-### Tests and local smoke workflow
-
-```bash
-pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run \
-  src/runtime/pi-goal-extension.spec.ts \
-  src/commands/launch.spec.ts \
-  src/config/file-adapter.test.ts
-
-bash packages/mosaic/framework/tools/quality/scripts/test-install-migration.sh
-```
-
-For an additive local smoke test without reseeding unrelated live framework files:
-
-```bash
-install -D -m 0644 \
-  packages/mosaic/framework/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts \
-  ~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts
-
-pi --extension ~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts
-```
-
-Use `/goal help`, `/goal set ...`, and `/goal status` in that test session. A released framework
-sync installs the file, and a released Mosaic CLI loads it automatically through `mosaic pi`.

-## Pi Persistent Goals
-
-`mosaic pi` loads a Mosaic-owned goal extension from
-`~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts`. It is deliberately not installed in
-`~/.pi/agent/extensions/`; framework installation and updates manage it with the rest of the Mosaic
-runtime assets.
-
-Start Pi, then set a goal:
-
-```text
-/goal set Deliver the feature, tests, documentation, and verification evidence
-# Shorthand:
-/goal Deliver the feature, tests, documentation, and verification evidence
-```
-
-Control and inspect the loop with:
-
-| Command                | Behavior                                                           |
-| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| `/goal status`         | Show phase, limits, compaction checks, latest report, and evidence |
-| `/goal pause [reason]` | Stop autonomous continuation while preserving the goal             |
-| `/goal resume`         | Resume with fresh turn and no-progress counters                    |
-| `/goal cancel`         | Cancel the goal and remove its active status                       |
-| `/goal help`           | Show command help                                                  |
-
-While a goal is active, Mosaic injects its contract before every Pi model request and checks every
-completed model/tool turn. The agent ends each work cycle with the structured
-`mosaic_goal_report` tool. `achieved` is provisional until a second consecutive report rechecks the
-whole goal with evidence. A continuation report or a successful compaction resets provisional
-verification.
-
-Goal statements and reports are stored in Pi session data. Mosaic redacts common credential shapes
-before appending its goal-state entries and before goal tool output or `/goal status`, but
-pattern-based redaction is not a secret store. Pi's own model-message and tool-call records are
-outside that redactor. Never put tokens, passwords, private keys, connection strings, or raw
-sensitive output in a goal or report; cite the command, artifact, and pass/fail result instead.
-
-The loop stops instead of running forever when it is paused, blocked, cancelled, verified, reaches
-its turn limit, or repeats the same no-progress report too many times. Defaults are 40 turns and 6
-repeated no-progress reports. Operators may lower or raise them within enforced bounds before
-launching Pi:
-
-```bash
-MOSAIC_GOAL_MAX_TURNS=60 MOSAIC_GOAL_MAX_NO_PROGRESS=8 mosaic pi
-```
-
-Goal state is branch-specific Pi session data. It survives compaction and session resume, but Pi's
-process still must be relaunched or supervised after a process/host failure. This initial verifier
-checks structured evidence twice; it cannot mathematically prove every arbitrary natural-language
-goal. Use explicit acceptance criteria and inspect `/goal status` for consequential work.

-# #1043 — Fleet pane git-identity propagation
-
-## Objective
-
-Ensure a fleet seat's launched runtime process receives its roster-derived `MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY`, and lock the complete generated-environment propagation boundary with an enumerated set comparison.
-
-## Tracking
-
-- External issue: `mosaicstack/stack#1043`
-- Branch: `fix/1043-pane-git-identity`
-- Coordinator: `tl-mosaic`
-- `docs/TASKS.md`: read-only by project worker contract; not modified.
-
-## Constraints
-
-- RED-first bug reproducer is mandatory.
-- R7 delete-the-subject mutation must turn the behavioral test red.
-- Assert launched-process environment, not source text.
-- One push only; do not poll CI after push.
-- Run the CI queue guard immediately before push and report its `state=` line as state, not evidence.
-- Do not modify a live host launcher or obtain/copy another credential.
-- Self-post the PR, verify provider attribution, then stop.
-- Final status wording: `believed-fixed, pending jarvis validation`.
-
-## Scope inventory
-
-Re-derived against `origin/main` at `85d2108e`:
-
-- Launch consumer: `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/start-agent-session.sh`
-- Behavioral launch test: `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh`
-- Generated-environment contract/parser: `packages/mosaic/src/fleet/generated-env-boundary.ts`
-- Roster projection producers:
-  - `packages/mosaic/src/commands/fleet.ts`
-  - `packages/mosaic/src/fleet/fleet-reconciler.ts`
-  - `packages/mosaic/src/fleet/fleet-agent-crud.ts`
-  - `packages/mosaic/src/fleet/v1-v2-migration.ts`
-- Contract and producer tests discovered by repository search.
-- Generated-environment operator/developer docs and their executable documentation contract test.
-
-Discrepancy sent to `tl-mosaic`: current main no longer contains the charter's `PANE_SHELL_SNIPPET`; #772 replaced it with an `/usr/bin/env -i` argv launch boundary, and current generated projections do not declare git identity. Code-read inventory is **NOT MEASURED** behavior.
-
-## Plan
-
-1. Add the process-environment set-comparison regression first and record RED.
-2. Add roster-derived `MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY=<agent name>` to the complete generated projection contract.
-3. Validate identity syntax and equality with `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME`; pass it through the clean pane environment.
-4. Update affected projection tests and generated-environment docs.
-5. Run focused and baseline gates.
-6. Perform R7 by deleting the pane propagation entry, prove RED, restore, and prove GREEN.
-7. Run independent review, remediate, commit, queue guard, one push, self-post PR, verify provider attribution, and stop without CI polling.
-
-## Budget
-
-No explicit token cap was provided. Working cap: one narrow logical unit, no dependency installation unless existing tooling requires it, no unrelated refactor.
-
-## Evidence log
-
-### TDD and mutation evidence
-
-- RED-first, repository launcher: `bash packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh` exited 64 on pre-fix source with `code=unknown-key key=MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY`. The generated seat could not launch with the required declared identity.
-- GREEN: the same repository launcher test emitted `ok - start-agent-session generated environment boundary`.
-- R7 delete-the-subject: removed only `"MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY=$MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY"` from the repository launch array; the same test exited 1 with `FAIL: runtime pane omitted or changed generated environment keys: MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY`.
-- R7 restoration: restored that launch entry; the same test returned green.
-- Launcher under test is explicitly `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/start-agent-session.sh` through the test's `$START`, **not** the stale installed host copy.
-
-### Situational and focused tests
-
-- Repository launcher boundary: green, including set comparison of all nine generated projection entries and fail-before-tmux cases for missing, unsafe, mismatched, and local-shadow Git identity.
-- Fleet systemd launcher integration: `bash packages/mosaic/framework/systemd/user/test-fleet-units.sh` — green.
-- Focused Mosaic Vitest set: 6 files, 311 tests — green.
-- `bash -n` on changed shell files — green.
-- `git diff --check` — green.
-
-### Baseline gates
-
-- `pnpm typecheck` — 45/45 tasks green.
-- `pnpm lint` — 25/25 tasks green.
-- `pnpm format:check` — green.
-- `pnpm test:checkout` — green.
-- Repository-wide Vitest under a hermetic current-version npm prefix: Mosaic 81/81 files and 1510/1510 tests green; other workspace test tasks shown green before the framework-shell phase.
-- Canonical `pnpm test` is not fully green on this host for unrelated environment-sensitive gates:
-  1. the first two runs exposed the globally installed Mosaic 0.0.48 update banner in three CLI smoke tests expecting empty stderr;
-  2. after isolating that global-version input, the framework wake assertion aborted at the known `#973` Bash `BASH_LINENO` convention check (exit 97; observed `[3 5]`, expected `[3 4]`).
-  No tests were weakened or bypassed; focused changed-surface tests are green. CI remains the canonical clean-environment result and is intentionally not polled after push per charter.
-
-### Independent review
-
-- Codex code review first pass: request changes for missing shell rejection-path coverage.
-- Remediation: added table-driven missing/unsafe/mismatch/local-shadow launcher cases, each asserting no tmux call.
-- Codex code re-review: **approve**, no findings, confidence 0.88.
-- Codex security review: risk `none`, no findings, confidence 0.97.
-
-### Acceptance criteria mapping
-
-| Acceptance criterion | Evidence |
-| --- | --- |
-| AC-FGI-01: launched process receives every generated key/value | Repository launcher process-environment `comm -23` set comparison; GREEN and R7 RED evidence above |
-| AC-FGI-02: missing, unsafe, or split identity fails before tmux | Table-driven shell cases plus TypeScript generated-boundary tests |
-| AC-FGI-03: focused/baseline/review evidence recorded | Commands and review outcomes above; host-sensitive full-suite limitations stated explicitly |
-
-### Documentation checklist
-
-- PRD updated with #1043 requirements and acceptance criteria.
-- Fleet launch runbook, generated-env concept, and generated-env reference updated.
-- No API/OpenAPI, sitemap, user publishing target, deployment, or external docs publication change applies.
-- `docs/TASKS.md` remains unmodified per its single-writer project contract.
-
-## Round 2 — PR #1073 review 97 remediation
-
-### Review blocker
-
-The launched-process suite was signed-excluded from CI enumeration. Manual GREEN/R7 evidence therefore did not prove a PR workflow could detect regression.
-
-### RED-first and canonical wiring
-
-1. Removed the suite's signed exclusion before adding a CI execution path.
-2. `check-test-enumeration.sh` went RED with exact `UNENUMERATED` output for `test-start-agent-session.sh`: population 49, enumerated 30, excluded 18.
-3. Added both `framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh` and `framework/systemd/user/test-fleet-units.sh` to `@mosaicstack/mosaic`'s canonical `test:framework-shell` chain.
-4. The guard returned GREEN: population 49, enumerated 32, excluded 18, surfaces 45. The systemd suite is outside the guard's tools-only population but now has the same explicit canonical execution disposition.
-
-### Workflow-level R7
-
-- Deleted only the pane launch entry `"MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY=$MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY"`.
-- Ran the exact `.woodpecker/ci.yml` test-step command, `pnpm test`, with only a temporary PATH-scoped npm shim reporting the checkout's current 0.0.49 version so the unrelated global 0.0.48 banner could not preempt the shell chain.
-- Result: exit 1 at `@mosaicstack/mosaic#test`, with the enumeration guard GREEN followed by `FAIL: runtime pane omitted or changed generated environment keys: MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY`.
-- Restored the launch entry. The canonical `test:framework-shell` chain then reached both newly wired suites and printed both GREEN markers before the known unrelated #973 host-only `BASH_LINENO` abort.
-- An actual provider PR workflow on the intentionally broken mutant is **NOT MEASURED**: the one-push constraint forbids pushing a red mutant and then a repaired head. Local execution proves the exact PR workflow command and dependency chain go RED on the subject deletion; CI on the repaired pushed head remains canonical.
-
-### Workflow population
-
-- **DEFINED:** 3 workflows (`ci.yml`, `ci-image.yml`, `publish.yml`).
-- **ELIGIBLE for `pull_request`:** 1/3 (`ci.yml`), based on top-level `when:` clauses.
-- **REPORTED:** Round-1 exact-head provider read reported 1/1 eligible context (`ci/woodpecker/pr/ci`). Post-remediation-head reported count is **NOT MEASURED** by this seat because CI polling is prohibited; workflow definitions and eligibility did not change.
-
-### Independent remediation review
-
-- First Round-2 review identified a CI-image blocker: the newly wired launcher suite used Perl, which the Alpine CI base does not install.
-- Replaced the suite's three Perl-only fixture mutations with POSIX/BusyBox-compatible `sed -i` substitutions; production behavior and assertions are unchanged.
-- Codex re-review: **APPROVE**, confidence 0.93, no findings.
-
-### Vitest denominator reconciliation
-
-The PR's `311/311` is correct for its explicitly named six-file command at both the original and remediation worktrees:
-
-- generated environment boundary: 24
-- fleet documentation: 23
-- Tess service profile: 6
-- fleet regen command: 27
-- fleet agent CRUD command: 22
-- fleet command: 209
-- total: **311**
-
-Review 97 reported 312/312 without naming its six files. That is a different or miscounted population and cannot replace the command-scoped 311 denominator; the PR follow-up will name the exact files and arithmetic.
-
-## Round 3 — Alpine stale-marker portability
-
-### Objective and plan
-
-- Replace the GNU-only relative-date fixture with a deterministic POSIX/BusyBox timestamp while preserving the required stale-marker assertion.
-- Re-run the launcher suite in the canonical `ci-base:latest` Alpine image, then run applicable repository gates and independent review.
-- Update the PR body to name the repeated GNU-host/Alpine-CI portability pattern, run the mandatory queue guard, push once, verify provider attribution, and stop without CI polling.
-- Working budget: 8K tokens; scope is one fixture line plus delivery evidence. No production behavior changes.
-
-### RED-first evidence
-
-Before the fix, the canonical CI image command
-`docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/work" -w /work git.mosaicstack.dev/mosaicstack/stack/ci-base:latest bash packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh`
-exited 1 at the stale-marker setup with exact BusyBox output
-`touch: invalid date '10 seconds ago'`. The prior fresh-marker assertions had already executed, matching pipeline 2233's failure location.
-
-### Root cause and fix
-
-The test used GNU `touch -d` relative-date parsing although the PR workflow runs on Alpine/BusyBox. The fixture now uses POSIX `touch -t 200001010000.00`, a fixed timestamp that is unconditionally stale; the stale assertion remains mandatory and was not made tolerant of missing timestamp metadata.
-
-### Structural pattern
-
-This is the third GNU-host/Alpine-CI portability defect in the lane: GNU `grep` multi-match counting, Perl-only fixture mutation, and GNU `touch -d` date parsing. The repeated cause is shell suites authored on a GNU host but executed in an Alpine CI image; durable prevention belongs in CI-image execution or portability lint, not assertion weakening.
-
-### GREEN and quality evidence
-
-- Focused launcher suite in `ci-base:latest`: exit 0, `ok - start-agent-session generated environment boundary`.
-- Canonical test step in `ci-base:latest` with the pipeline's `pgvector/pgvector:pg17` service, readiness check, migration, and `pnpm test`: exit 0; 46/46 Turbo tasks; Mosaic 81/81 files and 1510/1510 tests; Gateway 57 passed/5 skipped files and 629 passed/11 skipped tests; enumeration 49 population / 32 enumerated / 18 signed exclusions / 45 named surfaces.
-- The first image-only `pnpm test` attempt lacked the pipeline PostgreSQL service and failed only on connection refusal after the launcher suite was GREEN. The rerun supplied the canonical service precondition and passed.
-- Canonical-image baseline: typecheck 45/45 tasks, lint 25/25 tasks, format check GREEN; `git diff --check` GREEN.
-- Independent Codex code review: APPROVE, confidence 0.96, 2/2 Round-3 files, no findings.
-- Independent Codex security review: risk none, confidence 0.99, 2/2 Round-3 files, no findings.
-
-### Re-derived inventory and denominators
-
-- Round-3 git delta: **2/2 files** — launcher suite and task scratchpad; 25 insertions / 1 deletion before evidence finalization.
-- Full PR path inventory against `origin/main` at `85d2108e`: **19/19 changed paths**; Round 3 adds no new PR path.
-- Workflow definition population: **1/3 pull-request-eligible** (`ci.yml` of `ci.yml`, `ci-image.yml`, `publish.yml`).
-- Do not re-litigate the settled 311/312 populations; both are valid for their separately named Tess6 and CRUD-core7 sets.
-
-## Round 4 — bound stale-marker observation
-
-### Objective and plan
-
-- Make the heartbeat assertion discriminate an initially stale native marker from a fresh marker without changing the production staleness threshold or shortening the polling window.
-- Freeze only the sidecar's numeric observation clock during the stale-fixture arm so elapsed assertion time cannot turn a fresh mutant stale.
-- Prove two independent mutants RED: disable production stale-marker detection while retaining the stale fixture; replace the stale fixture with a fresh marker. Restore the tree and prove GREEN in the canonical Alpine image.
-- Re-derive the changed-path inventory, run applicable quality and independent review gates, commit with environment-only author/committer identity, queue-guard, push once, verify provider attribution using curl stdin config, and stop without CI polling.
-- Working budget: 8K tokens. Scope is the launcher test and its scratchpad evidence; production launcher behavior remains unchanged.
-
-### Root cause and bounded observation
-
-The 30 × 0.1-second assertion window overlaps the production `now - marker > interval * 2 + 1` threshold at interval 1. Depending on second boundaries and load, a fresh marker can age past the threshold before the assertion ends. A focused pre-fix fresh-mutant attempt returned RED while Review 101's full-suite run returned GREEN; the differing result is itself timing dependence, not a discriminating assertion.
-
-The test now supplies a fixed numeric epoch only to the stale-fixture sidecar. Its real marker mtime is still read from the filesystem, but assertion runtime cannot advance `now`. Date formatting still delegates to the image's real `/bin/date`. Neither the production threshold nor the 30 × 0.1-second polling window changed.
-
-### Two-mutant RED / restored GREEN
-
-All three runs used `git.mosaicstack.dev/mosaicstack/stack/ci-base:latest`:
-
-1. **Stale-detection mutant RED:** replaced only the production stale-age predicate with `false` while retaining the fixed stale marker; suite exit 1 with `FAIL: heartbeat sidecar did not resume after native marker became stale or absent`.
-2. **Fresh-marker mutant RED:** replaced only `touch -t 200001010000.00` with fresh `touch`; suite exit 1 with the same failed stale-resumption assertion. The fixed observation epoch kept the mutant fresh throughout all 30 polls.
-3. **Restored tree GREEN:** suite exit 0 with `ok - start-agent-session generated environment boundary`.
-
-### Re-derived inventory
-
-- Round-4 delta: **2/2 files** — launcher test plus task scratchpad; production launcher delta is empty.
-- Full PR inventory against `origin/main`: **19/19 paths**; Round 4 adds no path.
-- Production stale threshold remains `now - marker > iv * 2 + 1`; assertion polling remains 30 × 0.1 seconds.
-- Review 101's confirmed enumeration/workflow/CI and attribution evidence is accepted without re-polling or re-derivation.
-
-## Residual risk
-
-- Landing on `main` does not update the currently installed host launcher. Host framework installation/reseed and Jarvis live-seat validation are separate downstream events.
-- Canonical CI result is pending and will not be polled by this seat.

-# #1098 — Framework shell portability / red main
-
-## Objective
-
-Restore terminal-green `main` by making the `test-start-agent-session.sh` clean-environment assertion semantic and portable without removing either newly enumerated framework-shell suite.
-
-## Scope
-
-- Tracking issue: `mosaicstack/stack#1098`
-- Branch: `fix/framework-shell-portability`
-- Base: `origin/main` at `4fa2768962702d53e16e8b67ee6ad52ebcb0910e`
-- Primary file: `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh`
-- Requirements source: `docs/PRD.md` § Framework shell assertion portability (#1098)
-- Out of scope: deployed files under `~/.config/mosaic`, pnpm-store cleanup, checkout deletion, and changes to the launcher’s `/usr/bin/env -i` behavior.
-
-## Acceptance criteria
-
-1. The test inspects the captured NUL-delimited tmux argv semantically and accepts an adjacent `/usr/bin/env`, `-i` pair regardless of trailing payload size or pipe scheduling.
-2. Missing `/usr/bin/env`, missing `-i`, and non-adjacent `-i` remain failures.
-3. Failure output includes the observed argv records with stable indexes and shell escaping; it exposes no credentials because this fixture supplies only generated non-secret launch data.
-4. The focused suite passes on the dev host and in the repository CI image; the blocking PR/main pipeline returns terminal green.
-5. Independent review passes; PR is squash-merged and #1098 is closed only after merged-main CI is terminal green.
-
-## Budget
-
-- ASSUMPTION: 30K-token working budget; rationale: one shell-test defect plus full PR/CI lifecycle.
-- Auto-reduction: focused shell and package gates first; rely on canonical Woodpecker for the full monorepo suite rather than duplicating a dependency install under constrained `/home`.
-- Disk baseline before clone/build: `/home` 7.1G free (99% used), `/tmp` 2.4G free (92% used).
-
-## Investigation
-
-### First-hand CI evidence
-
-- Public log: `GET https://ci.mosaicstack.dev/api/repos/47/logs/2269/53041`
-- Decoded 1,436 entries (11 null `data` entries treated as empty log rows), 190,756 bytes.
-- Failure: `FAIL: pane command did not clear its environment` immediately after the expected pane-PID warning.
-- BusyBox primitives, complete assertion pipeline, real CI image, stale/current image digests, Turbo cache masking, gateway failure, and heartbeat-sidecar concurrent writing were independently excluded.
-
-### Root cause
-
-The assertion ends in:
-
-```bash
-printf '%s\n' "$pane_args" | tail -n +"$after_pane_env" | grep -qxF -- '-i'
-```
-
-The script has `set -o pipefail`. `grep -q` exits as soon as it finds the valid `-i` record. Upstream `tail`/`printf` can then receive SIGPIPE, making the aggregate pipeline nonzero even though grep returned 0 and the semantic property is true. This depends on payload size, pipe capacity, and scheduling, explaining a local/image pass with a CI failure.
-
-Discriminating stress control with `/usr/bin/env` followed immediately by `-i`:
-
-- 8,192-byte trailing payload: `printf=0 tail=0 grep=0`, aggregate 0.
-- 16,384-byte trailing payload: `printf=0 tail=141 grep=0`, aggregate 141.
-- 32,768+ bytes: `printf=141 tail=141 grep=0`, aggregate 141.
-- A full-reading `grep -xF` control remained 0 for every payload.
-
-This is a third branch omitted by the earlier present-vs-corrupted split: the pair can be present and intact while `pipefail` reports an upstream SIGPIPE.
-
-## TDD plan
-
-1. RED: preserve the one-off stress reproducer above and add an automated large-argv semantic regression that fails under the current pipeline implementation.
-2. GREEN: parse the authoritative NUL-delimited capture into a Bash array and search for an adjacent `/usr/bin/env`, `-i` pair without a short-circuit pipeline.
-3. Add negative controls for missing, detached, and reversed tokens.
-4. On failure, print indexed `%q` argv records before returning nonzero.
-5. Run focused suite, mutation controls, shell syntax/format checks, then repository baseline gates feasible without dependency installation.
-6. Independent review, queue guard, push, PR, CI, coordinator merge authorization, squash merge, merged-main CI, issue close.
-
-## Progress
-
-- [x] Checkout created and based on `origin/main` `4fa27689`.
-- [x] CI log decoded directly.
-- [x] Root-cause stress control reproduced semantic match + aggregate pipeline failure.
-- [x] RED evidence: intact `/usr/bin/env`, `-i` fixture produced component statuses `0/141/0` and aggregate 141 under the former `grep -q` pipeline; full-reading semantic control stayed 0.
-- [x] GREEN implementation: direct NUL-argv adjacency parser, indexed diagnostics, and full-reading scalar predicates replace all load-bearing early-exit pipelines in this test.
-- [x] Baseline/situational tests:
-  - focused launcher suite: PASS on GNU host and cached Alpine CI image;
-  - paired `test-fleet-units.sh`: PASS;
-  - enumeration guard: PASS (`population=53`, `enumerated=36`, `excluded=18`), 14/14 mutation needles;
-  - `bash -n`, ShellCheck, `git diff --check`: PASS;
-  - static denominator after change: zero load-bearing `grep -q`/`head`/`-m1` pipeline candidates in `test-start-agent-session.sh`;
-  - delete-the-subject mutation removing production `-i`: RED with 78 indexed argv records, byte count, and explicit boundary failure.
-- [x] Independent review:
-  - first Codex review: request changes — negative fixtures did not each assert diagnostics;
-  - remediation: centralized predicate + diagnostic wrapper and exercised all four negative fixtures;
-  - second Codex review: APPROVE, 0 blockers/should-fix/suggestions;
-  - Codex security review: risk none, 0 findings.
-- [ ] PR CI, formal fleet review, merge, merged-main CI, issue closure.
-
-## Documentation disposition
-
-- Updated canonical `docs/PRD.md` with FSP requirements and acceptance criteria.
-- This is an internal test/reliability change with no API, user workflow, deployment, navigation, or publishing-surface change; no user/admin/API/sitemap update is required.
-- `docs/TASKS.md` remains unchanged because the project contract makes it orchestrator-only.
-
-## Risks
-
-- The CI failure did not print its captured argv, so the exact CI payload is unavailable. The stress control proves the assertion is non-portable and can emit the exact false verdict; branch CI is the canonical confirmation that replacing it resolves pipeline 2269’s failure class.
-- Printing fixture argv is safe only while this test’s projection remains non-secret. The diagnostic must stay scoped to the test capture and shell-escaped.

-- Preserve the issue's withdrawn findings for `qa-hook-stdin.sh` and the two fresh-directory `pnpm pack` lookups. Fix `install.sh:312` because malformed multi-root input must reach its named handler.
-
-## Tranche 1 TDD
-
-RED-first control: `node --test scripts/pipefail-early-exit.test.mjs` reported exactly 26 non-accepted runtime/general sites, including `install.sh:312`, and exited 1. A checked-in fixture generated from immutable baseline `df4c591a` records all 26 normalized sites; the control passes every fixture entry through the same scanner, asserts exact identity/count/uniqueness, and separately requires zero findings in the current tree. It also inventories accepted sites rather than silently excluding whole files.
-
-Construction choices:
-
-- here-string/file redirection for scalar grep assertions;
-- full capture then parameter expansion for first-line selection;
-- arrays/`mapfile` for complete populations;
-- direct jq/awk/grep selection where one tool can express the property;
-- no `|| true` added to a load-bearing assertion.
-
-Site-by-site verdicts: `docs/reports/quality/1099-pipefail-sweep.md`.
-
-## Tranche 2 TDD
-
-Expanded the unconditional scanner over 11 non-wake test harnesses. RED named exactly 22 source lines; a second immutable-baseline fixture now asserts those 22 entries through the same scanner. Rewrites preserve command status by capturing producers before redirected assertions, use parameter expansion for line selection, and use complete `mapfile` populations where ordering matters. Current-tree finding count is zero for tranches 1 and 2.
-
-## Verification so far
-
-- `bash -n` on every changed shell script: pass.
-- structural Node control: pass.
-- `test-mutate-push-guard.sh`: 8/8 pass.
-- `test-send-message-verdict.sh`: 3/3 pass.
-- `test-send-message-socket.sh`: pass.
-- Independent review 143 found two semantic regressions: a help-probe `|| true` changed the failure truth table, and an unguarded Git capture changed non-Git data-dir behavior from rc 0 + JSON to silent rc 128. Both received RED-first regressions before correction; help status is now separate and required, and Git status remains condition-guarded.
-- Wake detector/reconcile/digest/preimage suites terminate at their existing fail-closed #973 `BASH_LINENO` environment probe (exit 97, observed `[3 5]`, expected `[3 4]`) before subject tests. No bypass or skip was used; canonical CI remains required.
-- ShellCheck reports only pre-existing source-following, unused-variable, and untouched `ls | head` findings; no new diagnostic was introduced.

-# #1150 — Pi persistent goal extension
-
-- **Task ID:** ISSUE-1150 (no `docs/TASKS.md` row; that file is orchestrator-only)
-- **Issue:** #1150 — `pi: add persistent /goal controller extension to Mosaic framework`
-- **Branch:** `feat/1150-pi-goal-extension`
-- **Mode:** Delivery
-- **Status:** in progress
-
-## Objective
-
-Build and locally validate a Mosaic-owned Pi `/goal` extension. Source must ship from
-`packages/mosaic/framework/runtime/pi/`, framework sync must deploy it under
-`~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/`, and no extension/configuration asset may be written into `~/.pi`.
-Pi's native session manager remains the owner of session entries.
-
-## Scope and acceptance source
-
-- Canonical requirements: `docs/PRD.md`, section **Pi Persistent Goal Loop (#1150)**.
-- User intent: continuous goal orientation and status checking after each Pi turn and compaction,
-  tested locally before framework delivery.
-- Documentation target: canonical in-repo user/developer/runtime docs; no external publication.
-
-## Assumptions
-
-- `ASSUMPTION:` Initial semantic verification uses two consecutive structured, evidence-bearing
-  reports from the working agent rather than a second model request after every turn. This keeps the
-  loop testable and avoids doubling model cost while making the limitation explicit.
-- `ASSUMPTION:` Default autonomous bounds are 40 turns and 6 repeated no-progress reports, with only
-  bounded numeric environment overrides.
-- `ASSUMPTION:` A local smoke copy to `~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts` is authorized by
-  the user's explicit request. Full framework reseed into the live home is not required for the smoke
-  test and would touch unrelated framework-owned files.
-
-## Budget
-
-- Working estimate: 30K implementation/review tokens.
-- Hard user cap: none stated.
-- Cost control: deterministic fake-Pi tests; no nested evaluator calls; only bounded arithmetic/load
-  smoke workflows against the installed runtime.
-
-## Plan
-
-1. Update PRD and create tracking/scratchpad artifacts.
-2. Read launcher, installer ownership, Pi extension, and documentation surfaces.
-3. TDD: add fake-Pi behavior tests for commands, state restoration, turn checks, compaction, limits,
-   verification, and continuation deduplication.
-4. Implement `runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts` and deterministic launcher discovery.
-5. Add framework-sync/deployment acceptance coverage.
-6. Update user, developer, runtime, framework README, and sitemap documentation.
-7. Run focused tests, local Mosaic-path smoke test, then baseline repository gates.
-8. Run independent review, remediate, commit, push/PR/CI/merge/issue closure per delivery gates.
-
-## TDD decision
-
-Applied. The continuation state machine and lifecycle scheduling are control-path logic where a race
-or false terminal state can cause unbounded work or premature completion.
-
-## Progress checkpoints
-
-- [x] Issue #1150 created through Mosaic wrapper.
-- [x] Isolated worktree created from `origin/main`.
-- [x] PRD requirements and acceptance criteria added.
-- [x] Task scratchpad created.
-- [x] RED controller and security-regression tests written and observed failing before implementation.
-- [x] Goal controller, launcher discovery, framework deployment coverage, and bounded state machine
-      implemented.
-- [x] User, admin, developer, runtime, adapter, README, and sitemap documentation updated.
-- [x] Final source copied additively to `~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts`; source and
-      deployed SHA-256 are identical.
-- [x] Live Pi RPC smoke from the exact Mosaic path reached `achieved` with two verification passes and
-      no extension errors.
-- [x] Baseline and situational checks completed, except the explicitly documented unavailable
-      PostgreSQL-only root integration case.
-- [x] Independent code and OWASP/security reviews completed; all findings remediated and re-reviewed.
-- [ ] Commit, push, PR, terminal-green CI, squash merge, and issue closure complete.

-## Tests and evidence
-
-### Situational
-
-- `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec vitest run src/runtime/pi-goal-extension.spec.ts`
-  - final: 25 passed.
-  - Covers commands, per-turn checks, context injection, two-pass verification, mixed-report
-    rejection, bounded limits, compaction, branch restore, stale timers, credential redaction,
-    typed-field false-positive protection, and append-only legacy-state fail-closed behavior.
-- Final focused launcher/controller/file-adapter run: 3 files / 67 tests passed.
-- Final V8 coverage for `framework/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts`:
-  - 99.17% statements/lines, 93.78% branches, 100% functions.
-- Installer migration fixture: 24 passed and byte-compared the deployed framework asset.
-- Standalone extension TypeScript check against installed Pi 0.84.1 types passed:
-  `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic exec tsc --noEmit --pretty false --module NodeNext
-  --moduleResolution NodeNext --target ES2022 --skipLibCheck framework/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts`.
-- Live deployment/load evidence:
-  - source/deployed SHA-256:
-    `1f0a3806e0948ad5f49684273a7e535e9880c148f7fd16d13ee487fcd601f637`.
-  - `get_commands` identified `/goal` as an extension command sourced from
-    `~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/goal-extension.ts`; `/goal help` succeeded; zero extension errors.
-  - live arithmetic goal ended `achieved`, verification `2/2`, with 3 goal reports / 3 agent starts
-    and zero extension errors.
-  - no goal extension exists under `~/.pi` extension paths.
-
-### Baseline
-
-- `pnpm build`: passed before the final framework-only redaction remediation; the extension is not a
-  package build input and its final source passed the standalone Pi type check.
-- `pnpm typecheck`: 45/45 tasks passed.
-- `pnpm lint`: 25/25 tasks passed.
-- `pnpm format:check`: passed.
-- Final Mosaic package components:
-  - Vitest: 82 files / 1,539 tests passed.
-  - full `test:framework-shell` harness passed.
-  - the discovered pre-existing tmux loader-marker race was reproduced with constructor PID
-    evidence, fixed with a pane readiness/FIFO barrier, passed 3 consecutive focused runs, and passed
-    in the full shell harness.
-  - one combined rerun encountered the separate existing real-lease probe TOCTOU in
-    `install-ordering-guard.spec.ts`; an earlier final Vitest run was fully green and the changed
-    focused suites remained green.
-- Gateway safe baseline excluding the prohibited PostgreSQL-only fixture: 55 files / 600 tests passed
-  (6 files / 12 tests skipped by their existing environment gates).
-- Root `pnpm test` reached 43 successful workspace tasks and all changed-package Vitest tests, but
-  the unchanged `apps/gateway/src/__tests__/cross-user-isolation.test.ts` afterAll hook retried a
-  PostgreSQL connection and failed authentication (`28P01`). This checkout explicitly forbids local
-  PostgreSQL startup/access; the failure is unrelated to #1150 and cannot be remediated by starting
-  the database. The gateway suite excluding that PostgreSQL-only file and required CI are used as
-  the safe verification paths.
-
-### Independent review
-
-- Codex code review: approved, 0 findings across 15 files.
-- Initial Codex security review: one medium CWE-532/A09 finding for raw report persistence.
-- Remediation added central credential-pattern redaction, prompt/docs guidance, canary tests, typed
-  field false-positive guards, and sticky fail-closed restore for credential-bearing append-only
-  history.
-- Codex security re-review: risk `none`, 0 findings, confidence 0.87.
-- Focused remediation review findings were fixed; final focused re-review verdict: `APPROVE`.
-- Focused independent review of the tmux readiness barrier: `APPROVE`, no actionable findings.
-
-## Risks and blockers
-
-- Live `~/.config/mosaic` is shared by active Pi/fleet processes. Local deployment remained a single
-  additive framework file and did not reload or restart unrelated sessions.
-- Completion verification is semantic, not mathematical: the active agent supplies structured
-  evidence twice. Operators must still inspect consequential outcomes.
-- Credential redaction is pattern-based defense-in-depth, not a secret store. It covers
-  controller-owned state/status/tool details, not Pi's separate model-message/tool-call history.
-  Goals and reports must never contain real secrets or raw sensitive output. Because Pi session
-  entries are append-only, a detected credential-bearing legacy branch fails closed and the affected
-  session must be removed.
-- Current installed Pi is newer than the repository's historical gateway Pi dependency. The
-  extension was checked and smoke-tested against installed Pi 0.84.1 using stable documented APIs.
-- Local root testing cannot safely execute the unchanged PostgreSQL-only integration fixture under
-  the checkout's explicit database safety constraints. Terminal-green PR CI remains mandatory before
-  merge.
-- The unchanged real-lease default-probe test can observe different broker availability across its two
-  sequential probes; one combined package rerun hit that existing TOCTOU. The same final Vitest suite
-  passed in a separate run, and CI remains the merge authority.

+- `apps/gateway/src/federation/server/verbs/get.controller.ts`
+- `apps/gateway/src/federation/server/verbs/get-query.service.ts`
+- Unit coverage for controller pipeline + query service RBAC guardrails
+- Register controller/service in `FederationModule`
+
+## Plan

+2. Return one `_source: "local"` tagged item on success.
+3. Return federation error envelopes:
+   - `404 not_found` when the resource id does not exist.

+   - `400 invalid_request` for malformed ids/scope requests.
+4. Keep read audit persistence deferred to M4; no body or response persistence in M3.
+
+## Verification Evidence
+
+- Rebased onto `origin/main` at `86e106fcc9a1dfa3a18f7846bb477be128794aad` after M3-05 merged; resolved `FederationModule` by registering both list and get verb controllers/services.

+# B1 / @next Durable Publish Pipeline — Design
+
+## Objective
+
+Make `next` a durable integration line that publishes the artifacts required by downstream federation boot tests without manual builds.
+
+Every merge to `next` publishes:
+
+1. **npm prerelease packages** to the Gitea npm registry with dist-tag `next`.
+2. **Gateway container image** tagged only as `gateway:sha-<short>`.
+
+The existing stable release behavior remains isolated to `main` / tags.
+
+## Registry verification
+
+Target registry: `https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/`.
+
+Pre-implementation checks:
+
+- `npm view @mosaicstack/mosaic dist-tags --registry https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/ --json` returned a dist-tags object (`latest: 0.0.48`).
+- `npm view @mosaicstack/mosaic@latest version --registry https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/` resolved `0.0.48`.
+- `@next` currently returns 404 because no `next` dist-tag exists yet; this is expected before the first next prerelease publish.
+
+Pipeline design includes a post-publish verification that `npm view @mosaicstack/mosaic@next version` resolves to the exact CI-computed prerelease version. If Gitea fails to honor the `next` dist-tag, the pipeline fails closed.
+
+## Version scheme
+
+The prerelease version is computed at publish time only; no `package.json` version changes are committed.
+
+For each non-private `@mosaicstack/*` package:
+
+```text
+<target-stable>-next.<CI_PIPELINE_NUMBER>
+```
+
+Where:
+
+- `CI_PIPELINE_NUMBER` is Woodpecker's monotonic pipeline number.
+- `target-stable` is the package's current committed stable version with the patch component incremented.
+  - Example: `@mosaicstack/mosaic` `0.0.48` publishes as `0.0.49-next.1626`.
+  - Example: `@mosaicstack/gateway` `0.0.6` publishes as `0.0.7-next.1626`.
+
+Rationale:
+
+- npm semver sorts `0.0.49-next.1627` above `0.0.49-next.1626`.
+- The prerelease does not overtake the future stable `0.0.49`.
+- The monotonic pipeline number avoids conflicts across repeated `next` merges.
+
+## Branch and tag guardrails
+
+| Pipeline path         | Branch/event                   | Publishes                                               | Forbidden              |
+| --------------------- | ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- |
+| stable npm publish    | `main` push/manual or tag      | package versions already committed in package manifests | `@next` dist-tag       |
+| next npm publish      | `next` push/manual only        | CI-computed prereleases with `--tag next`               | `latest` dist-tag      |
+| gateway image         | `main` push/manual or tag      | `sha-<short>` + `latest` on main + tag on tag events    | next prerelease npm    |
+| gateway image         | `next` push/manual only        | `sha-<short>` only                                      | `latest`               |
+| appservice/web images | `main` push/manual or tag only | existing stable image behavior                          | next image publication |
+
+The pipeline has explicit branch checks inside the publish commands as a second fail-closed layer beyond Woodpecker `when` clauses.
+
+## Implementation plan
+
+1. Widen `.woodpecker/publish.yml` top-level `when` to include `next` so the publish pipeline runs on next merges.
+2. Keep existing `publish-npm` on `main` / tags only.
+3. Add `publish-next-npm` for `next` push/manual only:
+   - configure Gitea npm auth from existing `gitea_token` secret as `NPM_TOKEN`;
+   - preflight registry dist-tag metadata;
+   - compute prerelease versions in CI by temporarily editing package manifests in the workspace;
+   - run `pnpm publish ... --tag next` against non-private `@mosaicstack/*` packages;
+   - verify `@mosaicstack/mosaic@next` resolves to the computed version.
+4. Split image `when` anchors:
+   - `image_build_when` includes `next` and is used by `build-gateway`;
+   - `main_image_build_when` keeps appservice/web on main/tags only.
+5. Keep gateway next image destinations to `sha-<short>` only; no `latest` on next.
+
+## Risk controls
+
+- Auth/registry failures are fatal.
+- No manual image build/push path is introduced.
+- No production `latest` tags are touched from `next`.
+- No `@latest` npm dist-tags are touched from `next`.
+- All changes live in CI config and docs; no runtime source behavior changes.

+## Problem
+
+Greenfield wizard on `next` reported:
+
+```text
+Skills sync script not found at ~/.config/mosaic/bin/mosaic-sync-skills
+Skills: install failed
+```
+
+## Diagnosis
+
+The framework install migration removed the legacy `~/.config/mosaic/bin/` directory and now installs framework helper scripts under:
+
+```text
+~/.config/mosaic/tools/_scripts/
+```
+
+`packages/mosaic/src/stages/finalize.ts` still resolved wizard helper scripts from `mosaicHome/bin`, so wizard-selected skills failed even though `mosaic-sync-skills` was present in the current framework layout.
+
+## Fix
+
+- Resolve framework helper scripts through `tools/_scripts/<name>` first.
+- Keep a legacy `bin/<name>` fallback for pre-migration installs.
+- Point missing-script warnings at the current `tools/_scripts` layout.
+- Update the finalize skills test fixture to model the fresh framework layout.
+- Update framework README examples from legacy `bin/` helper paths to `tools/_scripts/`.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Unit: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test -- finalize-skills`
+- Gates: `pnpm typecheck`, `pnpm lint`, `pnpm format:check`, `pnpm build`
+- Fresh path: ran `packages/mosaic/framework/install.sh` with a temp `MOSAIC_HOME` and `MOSAIC_SYNC_ONLY=1`; verified `tools/_scripts/mosaic-sync-skills` exists, legacy `bin/mosaic-sync-skills` does not, and the script installs a selected fake `lint` skill into Mosaic + Pi runtime skill directories.

+# B3 — Wizard completion ordering
+
+## Problem
+
+The wizard printed the success summary / `Mosaic is ready.` during `finalizeStage`, before the gateway configuration stage had completed its daemon health check. If the gateway health gate later failed, the user could see a success claim followed by a gateway failure.
+
+## Diagnosis
+
+`finalizeStage` handled both mutation work and terminal success messaging. Wizard paths then ran `gatewayConfigStage` and `gatewayBootstrapStage` afterward:
+
+1. finalize writes config, links runtime assets, syncs skills, runs doctor;
+2. finalize prints `Installation Summary` + `Mosaic is ready.`;
+3. gateway config starts/waits for daemon health;
+4. gateway bootstrap runs.
+
+The summary needed to be deferred until after the gateway readiness gates.
+
+## Fix
+
+- `finalizeStage` now returns a `showSummary()` callback and supports `deferSummary`.
+- Wizard/quick-start paths call finalize with `deferSummary: true`.
+- `showSummary()` is called only after gateway config reports ready and bootstrap completes, or immediately when the caller explicitly skips gateway setup.
+- If gateway health/config reports not ready, the wizard returns/aborts without printing the success summary.
+- Folded in adjacent runtime install hint fix for Pi: `curl -fsSL https://pi.dev/install.sh | sh`.

+# B4 — Wizard step deduplication
+
+## Problem
+
+Greenfield wizard testing showed completed wizard steps could be executed again after the menu marked them `[done]`. In practice this made the Providers/API-key flow and Skills flow appear twice in one wizard run.
+
+There was a second related API-key duplication path: when the Providers step was completed with no key, `gatewayConfigStage` still prompted for `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` during Finish because it only skipped the gateway API-key prompt when `providerKey` was non-empty.
+
+## Diagnosis
+
+- `runMenuLoop` labeled completed sections with `[done]`, but still dispatched the selected step again if the user selected that row.
+- Quick Start ran Providers and Skills but did not mark those sections complete in `completedSections`.
+- `runFinishPath`/`quickStartPath` defaulted `providerType` to `none` for gateway config, which made it impossible for `gatewayConfigStage` to distinguish:
+  - provider step completed and user intentionally skipped the key, vs.
+  - provider step was never run.
+
+## Fix
+
+- Added a shared menu section key helper and a completed-step guard in `runMenuLoop`.
+- Completed menu steps now log a skip message instead of re-running their stage.
+- Quick Start marks Providers and Skills complete after running them.
+- Finish/Quick Start now pass `state.providerType` as-is to gateway config instead of defaulting to `none`.
+- `gatewayConfigStage` treats `providerType: 'none'` as an explicit completed provider setup with no key and skips the second gateway API-key prompt.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Added unified wizard regression coverage asserting repeated Providers/Skills menu selections only execute each stage once.
+- Added gateway config coverage asserting `providerType: 'none'` does not prompt for a gateway API key and writes no API key env var.
+- Targeted: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test -- unified-wizard gateway-config`

+
+Add single-gateway gateway integration tests for M3 acceptance #6 and #7.
+
+## Branch / base
+
+- Branch: `feat/federation-m3-integration`
+- Base: `origin/next` (`838701bd` after M3-06/#683 merge)
+- PR base when unblocked: `next`
+
+## Scope
+
+- Real PostgreSQL via `@mosaicstack/db`.
+- Mocked TLS context / Fastify request shim for `FederationAuthGuard`.
+- Direct controller calls using the real M3 route contract: `POST /api/federation/v1/list/:resource` with body `{ limit?, cursor? }`.
+- Gated by `FEDERATED_INTEGRATION=1`.
+- No federation harness dependency.
+
+## Fixture notes
+
+Aligned with the B2 seed design vocabulary:
+
+- `tasks` visibility uses personal `projects` + `missions` chain.
+- `notes` are `mission_tasks.notes`; the integration suite asserts subject-only note visibility on an authorized mission.
+- Seed includes a second user and unauthorized team/project tasks to prove exclusion from the max-row-cap list result.
+- Grants/peers are direct DB fixtures; cert auth still runs through `FederationAuthGuard` using real X.509 certs generated by existing test helpers.
+
+## Current implementation
+
+Added `apps/gateway/src/__tests__/integration/federation-m3-list.integration.test.ts` covering:
+
+1. M3 #6 — cert missing Mosaic OIDs returns 401 federation `unauthorized` envelope.
+2. M3 #6 — valid cert whose grant row is `revoked` returns 403 federation `forbidden` envelope.
+3. M3 #7 — active grant with `max_rows_per_query: 2` caps `list tasks`, returns `_truncated` + `nextCursor`, source-tags rows, and excludes other-user / unauthorized-team tasks.
+4. Cross-user notes invariant — subject can list their own `mission_tasks.notes` row while another user's note on the same authorized mission is excluded.
+5. Unsupported-resource invariant — `list widgets` fails closed with a federation `scope_violation` envelope.

+# Installer `--next` fast npm lane — 2026-06-25
+
+## Scope
+
+Flip `tools/install.sh --next` from source-build-first to fast npm `@next` first, with source fallback.
+
+## Registry reality check
+
+Gitea npm registry: `https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/`
+
+Verified before implementation:
+
+- `@mosaicstack/mosaic@next` resolves to `0.0.49-next.1633`.
+- `@mosaicstack/gateway@next` resolves to `0.0.7-next.1633`.
+- `@mosaicstack/gateway` dist-tags include `latest: 0.0.6` and `next: 0.0.7-next.1633`.
+- `apps/gateway/package.json` is non-private and has Gitea npm `publishConfig`.
+
+Conclusion: the installer can fast-install both CLI and gateway npm packages for `--next`. The gateway Docker `gateway:sha-<short>` remains the deployment/harness artifact; the npm gateway package is valid for the installer global package path.
+
+## Behavior
+
+- `--next` with no explicit ref:
+  1. framework archive from `next`;
+  2. resolve `@mosaicstack/gateway@next` and `@mosaicstack/mosaic@next`;
+  3. require both resolved versions to share the same `next.<pipeline>` suffix;
+  4. install the exact resolved package versions;
+  5. set `MOSAIC_GATEWAY_SKIP_NPM_INSTALL=1` so wizard does not overwrite the prerelease gateway;
+  6. if either package is missing/unreachable/mismatched/fails, fall back to existing source build at `next`.
+- `--dev` remains pure source build.
+- explicit `--ref` / `MOSAIC_REF` still wins over `--next` and uses the source path for that exact ref.
+
+## Install detail
+
+The installer writes the scoped npmrc mapping (`@mosaicstack:registry=...`) and then runs npm install without overriding npm's default registry. Passing `--registry=<gitea>` to `npm install` forces public transitive dependencies (for example `@anthropic-ai/sdk`) to resolve from Gitea and breaks the fast path; the scoped npmrc mapping is the correct split-registry behavior.
+
+## Verification notes
+
+- Added `tools/install-next-lane.test.sh` with a fake npm/source harness for exact-version fast install, registry failure source fallback, explicit-ref precedence, and mismatched suffix warning.
+- Wired the installer harness into `pnpm test` via `pnpm run test:installer`.
+- Real temp-prefix fast install succeeded with `@mosaicstack/[email protected]` and `@mosaicstack/[email protected]`.

+# Scratchpad — installer `--next` lane
+
+## Objective
+
+Add a prerelease installer lane for the permanent `next` integration branch.
+
+## Scope
+
+- `tools/install.sh`
+- README/install documentation
+- Follow-up design note for future npm `@next` prerelease publishing
+
+## Plan
+
+1. Add `--next` and `MOSAIC_NEXT=1` as source-build shorthand for `next`.
+2. Preserve explicit ref precedence: `MOSAIC_REF` and `--ref` win over `--next`.
+3. Update installer source display/help text.
+4. Document three lanes:
+   - stable npm `@latest`
+   - prerelease `--next`
+   - contributor `--dev --ref X`
+5. Run shell and repo gates locally, then hold before push/PR until runner serialization greenlight.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `bash -n tools/install.sh` — pass.
+- `docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/mnt" -w /mnt koalaman/shellcheck:stable tools/install.sh` — pass.
+- `bash tools/install.sh --check --framework --next` — source display shows `ref: next, --next prerelease lane`.
+- `bash tools/install.sh --check --cli --next --ref feature-x` — source display shows explicit ref wins.
+- `MOSAIC_NEXT=1 MOSAIC_REF=feature-env bash tools/install.sh --check --cli` — source display shows explicit env ref wins.
+- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --prefer-offline --store-dir /home/jarvis/.local/share/pnpm/store` — pass (local override for repo `.npmrc` CI store path).
+- `pnpm typecheck` — pass (41 successful tasks).
+- `pnpm lint` — pass (23 successful tasks).
+- `pnpm format:check` — pass.
+- `bash tools/e2e-install-test.sh` — attempted; current baseline fails during gateway health after stable registry install because Valkey is unavailable in the clean container. The `tools/install.sh --yes --no-auto-launch` stage itself completed before the downstream gateway verification failure.

+# W-B — Measure Pi's real tool registry
+
+- **Task / internal ref:** W-B from the lease-remediation orchestrator brief (no matching `docs/TASKS.md` row; workers do not modify that file)
+- **Objective:** identify the exact tool names emitted as `event.toolName` by the installed Pi runtime and compare them with the broker's Pi read-only carve-out.
+- **Scope:** measurement and report only; no broker or runtime source changes. W-C is out of scope.
+- **Budget:** no explicit token cap; constrained to this scratchpad and one local commit.
+- **Installed runtime:** `@earendil-works/pi-coding-agent` / `pi` `0.84.1`.
+
+## Method
+
+I created a throwaway extension at `/tmp/measure-pi-tool-registry.ts` (not in the worktree). On `session_start` it recorded `pi.getAllTools()` and `pi.getActiveTools()`; on every `tool_call` it appended the exact `event.toolName`. I then launched an isolated, ephemeral Pi session with all built-ins explicitly selected:
+
+```text
+PI_OFFLINE=1 pi --mode print --no-session --no-approve \
+  --no-context-files --no-skills --no-prompt-templates --no-extensions \
+  -e /tmp/measure-pi-tool-registry.ts \
+  --tools read,bash,edit,write,grep,find,ls <deterministic probe prompt>
+```
+
+The prompt exercised file read, content search, file search, directory listing, shell execution, file write, and file edit. Pi exited `0`; every selected tool produced one `tool_call`. The write/edit control artifact ended with exact content `after`, proving the mutating calls executed in order.
+
+This runtime observation was cross-checked against the installed distribution's canonical registry at `dist/core/tools/index.js:17`, which declares the same seven names. The gate consumes the measured field directly at `packages/mosaic/framework/runtime/pi/mosaic-extension.ts:368`.
+
+## Exact distinct built-in set
+
+The installed Pi built-in registry is exactly:
+
+```text
+{bash, edit, find, grep, ls, read, write}
+```
+
+| Tool | Runtime registry observation | `tool_call` observation | Installed definition |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| `read` | `<builtin:read>` | observed once | `dist/core/tools/read.js:138` |
+| `bash` | `<builtin:bash>` | observed once | `dist/core/tools/bash.js:231` |
+| `edit` | `<builtin:edit>` | observed once | `dist/core/tools/edit.js:170` |
+| `write` | `<builtin:write>` | observed once | `dist/core/tools/write.js:138` |
+| `grep` | `<builtin:grep>` | observed once | `dist/core/tools/grep.js:79` |
+| `find` | `<builtin:find>` | observed once | `dist/core/tools/find.js:79` |
+| `ls` | `<builtin:ls>` | observed once | `dist/core/tools/ls.js:61` |
+
+The raw distinct `event.toolName` result was:
+
+```json
+["bash", "edit", "find", "grep", "ls", "read", "write"]
+```
+
+Pi registers all seven, but its default active set is only `read`, `bash`, `edit`, and `write` (`dist/core/sdk.js:132`). The probe explicitly activated all seven so the three search/list tools could be observed at the hook.
+
+## Positive control
+
+The known `read` tool was the control. The method surfaced it twice:
+
+1. `pi.getAllTools()` returned `read` with source path `<builtin:read>`.
+2. Reading `/tmp/pi-registry-probe/seed.txt`, which contained `CONTROL_TOKEN`, produced one hook record with `event.toolName === "read"`.
+
+The control was therefore positive; the seven-name result is measured, not an empty-probe inference.
+
+## Carve-out comparison and collision result
+
+The broker currently declares `{"read", "grep", "find", "ls"}` at `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/lease-broker/daemon.py:54`.
+
+- `read`: real built-in.
+- `grep`: real built-in.
+- `find`: real built-in.
+- `ls`: real built-in.
+
+All four carve-out names are exact, case-sensitive Pi tool names.
+
+The general execution/writing tool names are `bash`, `edit`, and `write`. Their intersection with the carve-out is empty:
+
+```text
+{bash, edit, write} ∩ {read, grep, find, ls} = ∅
+```
+
+Therefore no general shell-exec or file-mutating Pi tool shares a name with a carve-out entry. `grep` and `find` may invoke constrained search helpers internally, but neither exposes an arbitrary command interface; the arbitrary command tool is distinctly named `bash`.
+
+The Mosaic extension separately registers the non-built-in custom tool `mosaic_context_recover` at `packages/mosaic/framework/runtime/pi/mosaic-extension.ts:379`; the broker handles that identity through its dedicated recovery exemption rather than the read-only set (`daemon.py:722`). Unknown or third-party custom tools are not part of Pi's built-in seven-name registry and remain outside the carve-out.
+
+## Verification evidence
+
+- `pi --version` → `0.84.1`.
+- Isolated probe exit → `0`.
+- Runtime `getAllTools()` count → `7`, all with `sourceInfo.source === "builtin"`.
+- Distinct hook names → `bash`, `edit`, `find`, `grep`, `ls`, `read`, `write`.
+- Hook counts → exactly one call for each of the seven names.
+- Mutation artifact after `write` then `edit` → exact content `after`.
+- Installed registry source → `allToolNames = new Set(["read", "bash", "edit", "write", "grep", "find", "ls"])`.
+
+## Risks / limitations
+
+- The probe deliberately disabled all other extensions, so extension-defined third-party tools were excluded from the built-in registry measurement. The production gate still receives those names and treats names outside the broker carve-out as mutating/fail-closed.
+- Explicit `--tools` activation was required to exercise `grep`, `find`, and `ls`; this does not imply they are active in Pi's default four-tool configuration.

 ### Extensions
 
-`mosaic pi` loads framework-owned extensions directly from `~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/` in this
-order:
+The Mosaic Pi extension (`~/.config/mosaic/runtime/pi/mosaic-extension.ts`) handles:
 
-1. `mosaic-extension.ts` — session lifecycle, mission context, memory routing, lease/mutator gates,
-   and fleet heartbeat reporting.
-2. `goal-extension.ts` — optional persistent `/goal` controller with per-turn and post-compaction
-   checks.
-
-The goal extension is deployed by Mosaic and MUST NOT be copied into `~/.pi/agent/extensions/`.
-Use `/goal set <statement>` (or `/goal <statement>`) to start, then `/goal status`, `/goal pause`,
-`/goal resume`, or `/goal cancel` to control it. An active goal is injected before every model
-request, restored from branch-specific session entries, and considered achieved only after two
-consecutive evidence-bearing reports. Common credential shapes are redacted before controller-owned
-goal-state entries are persisted or
-displayed; Pi's own model/tool-call history is separate. Goals and reports must contain references
-and pass/fail summaries rather than secrets or raw sensitive output.
-
-- `MOSAIC_GOAL_MAX_TURNS` — autonomous turn limit, default `40`, accepted range `1..500`.
-- `MOSAIC_GOAL_MAX_NO_PROGRESS` — identical no-progress report limit, default `6`, accepted range
-  `1..100`.

-# Regression: the tea-failure diagnostic must be STATUS-NEUTRAL.
-#
-# Found by be-coder-08 reviewing PR #1086. At all three call sites the diagnostic is emitted
-# immediately BEFORE the Gitea API fallback. Written as the last command of an && list:
-#     declare -F explain_... >/dev/null && explain_...
-# under `set -e` a FAILING diagnostic exits and the fallback never runs -- a diagnostic that
-# suppresses the recovery path it exists to explain. It misbehaves ONLY when the helper is
-# PRESENT, so the helper-absent path (pre-#1086 behaviour) keeps working and reads as a
-# passing control.
-#
-# TWO DEFECTS IN THE FIRST VERSION OF THIS TEST, both found by be-coder-08:
-#   1. `out=$( ... ) 2>"$errto"` applies the redirection to the ASSIGNMENT, not to the
-#      command substitution, so the probe's stderr was never actually pointed at /dev/full
-#      and the /dev/full rows proved nothing. Verified: `out=$(echo x >&2) 2>/dev/full`
-#      leaks to the terminal and returns 0; the redirect must be INSIDE the substitution.
-#   2. `eval "$CONSTRUCT"` changes `set -e` semantics for a bare && list, so the probe did
-#      not exercise the construct as the shipped file executes it. It now writes the line
-#      into a real script and runs it -- same parse, same set -e rules, no eval.
-# The construct is still LIFTED FROM THE SHIPPED FILE: retyping the fixed form makes the
-# probe pass on a build whose real call sites still carry the bare && form.

+"""Lease promotion client — the half the enforcement toolkit never shipped.
+
+The enforcement half (``daemon.py`` + ``mutator-gate.py``) ships and denies. The
+promotion half has no production caller anywhere in the package: as of 0.0.48,
+0.0.49 and 0.0.50-next.2207, ``begin_verification`` / ``observe_receipt`` /
+``promote_lease`` are invoked only by ``broker-test-client.ts``, the acceptance
+spec, unit tests, and two probes under ``docs/``. Consequence: **no lease on any
+host can reach VERIFIED**, so every mutator is denied ``MUTATOR_UNVERIFIED`` by a
+gate nothing can satisfy.
+
+THE PROTOCOL (``daemon.py:578-754``)
+------------------------------------
+  1. ``begin_verification`` — broker revokes, mints a challenge, and returns the
+     exact ``receipt`` text the MODEL must emit
+  2. *the model emits that text verbatim as its ENTIRE latest message*
+  3. the runtime adapter ships that message to the daemon-owned observer socket
+  4. ``observe_receipt``  -> ``PENDING_PROMOTION``
+  5. ``promote_lease``    -> ``VERIFIED``
+
+THIS MODULE IMPLEMENTS 1, 4 AND 5 — NEVER 2
+-------------------------------------------
+Step 2 is the security property, not a formality. ``is_verbatim_receipt`` uses
+``hmac.compare_digest`` against the exact minted string — explicitly "not a
+transcript substring" (``receipt_challenge.py``). Promotion therefore requires a
+live model that received the challenge in its context and echoed it exactly.

+``receipt-observer-client.py`` will post ANY string as the latest assistant
+message. A promotion client that posted its own receipt would satisfy the broker
+while proving nothing — a gate-disabler indistinguishable from a working fix
+unless someone looks for it. **This module never posts a receipt.** Emitting it
+belongs to the runtime adapter, where a real model turn happens.
+
+The construction binds the exact normative source bytes. ``h_source`` /
+``h_payload`` are derived by the framework's own
+``normative_fragments.build_payload`` rather than reimplemented: the broker
+derives them the same way and any divergence yields ``PAYLOAD_BINDING_MISMATCH``.
+There must be exactly one implementation.
+
+WHAT THE BINDING DOES *NOT* PROVE
+---------------------------------
+It is tempting to read a VERIFIED lease as "this agent is running THIS law".
+**It does not mean that**, and writing it down that way is how the belief spread.
+The broker holds no reference copy of any normative source and never opens one;
+it recomputes ``h_source`` / ``h_payload`` from the fragment bytes THIS CLIENT
+sent and compares them to the binding THIS CLIENT sent (``daemon.py:602-616``).
+Both sides of that comparison originate here, so it detects corruption in
+transit and nothing else. What the binding actually asserts is "the client
+claims these bytes, self-consistently".
+
+Making it mean the stronger thing requires the broker to re-read the on-disk
+sources itself, against a manifest the agent cannot rewrite — i.e. broker code
+attestation under its own uid. Until then, do not cite a VERIFIED lease as
+evidence of law integrity.
