Silence render-disposed spam, unbreak bundled skills, drop board wake
Three independently ugly bugs that all fed the same log flood:
* Electron's `WebFrameMain.send` writes every "Render frame was disposed"
to stderr via `console.error`. When the worker fans a second
agent-event past a reloading renderer, we produced thousands of
identical lines and stalled the main loop on stderr I/O. Added a
`mainFrame.detached` guard so the send is short-circuited before
Electron's own catch block fires, and installed a targeted filter in
`suppress-warnings.ts` (now actually imported from the entry point)
so the specific `console.error("Error sending from webFrameMain:"…)`
noise never reaches the terminal. Any other payload still surfaces.
* `dispatchAgentMessage` accepted the human-reader sentinel as a wake
target when an agent replied to `__board__` — `wakeAgentIfPossible`
then called `db.getAgent("__board__")`, threw, and the dispatcher
kept repeating on every send. Strip `HUMAN_SENDER_ID` at
`resolveMessageWakeTargets`, and keep a defense-in-depth guard in the
heartbeat so a stray caller (future automation fan-out) cannot
reintroduce the crash.
* Pi's skills loader rejects any SKILL.md whose frontmatter `name`
diverges from its parent directory. The four bundled `my-writing-style`
copies declared `name: writing-style-skill`, so every install emitted
a warning and dropped the skill. They also lived as orphan gitlinks
(mode 160000 without .gitmodules), and the global `*.md` gitignore
hid every other SKILL.md from version control. Fixed the frontmatter
to match the dir, converted the dangling submodules to plain trees,
and allowlisted `builtin-skills/**/*.md` so a fresh clone carries the
catalogue instead of silently losing it.

## Avoid Redundant Comments
|
||||
|
||||
A comment that merely restates what the code does is worse than no comment. It adds clutter, becomes stale, and trains readers to ignore comments entirely.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect (redundant comments):**
|
||||
|
||||
```java
|
||||
/**
|
||||
* The name of the customer
|
||||
*/
|
||||
private String customerName;
|
||||
|
||||
/**
|
||||
* Returns the name
|
||||
* @return the name
|
||||
*/
|
||||
public String getName() {
|
||||
return name;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Check if the account is closed
|
||||
if (account.isClosed()) {
|
||||
// Throw an exception
|
||||
throw new AccountClosedException();
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
/**
|
||||
* Default constructor
|
||||
*/
|
||||
public Account() {
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct (comment only when necessary):**
|
||||
|
||||
```java
|
||||
private String customerName;
|
||||
|
||||
public String getName() {
|
||||
return name;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
if (account.isClosed()) {
|
||||
throw new AccountClosedException();
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
public Account() {
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Comments that add value:
|
||||
|
||||
// RFC 2822 date format required by legacy email parser
|
||||
private static final String DATE_FORMAT = "EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Z";
|
||||
|
||||
// Thread-safe: ConcurrentHashMap handles synchronization
|
||||
private Map<String, Session> activeSessions = new ConcurrentHashMap<>();
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Rule of thumb:** If the comment just repeats the code in English, delete it.
