Review limit (5) reached; the last finding (exhaustion latched) is fixed
by taking it from each latest hasMore.

Write-granted runs whose directories overlap (same folder, symlink or
junction, or nested) wait for each other, at claim time and for manual
runs.

Claims skip agents that already have a running run, manual runs refuse a
busy agent, a run whose task was reassigned fails before executing, and
tasks with a run in progress cannot be deleted.

The three third-party keys were hardcoded or read from the environment.
Operators now enter them in Settings > Integrations; they are stored
encrypted in the app-wide integration_keys table (migration 058).
An agent holding connector grants fails loudly when no Composio key is
saved. The goal-review test no longer depends on absolute dates.

A single transient failure from a background run used to silence the whole
company — founder included — for the full ten-minute cooldown. The
interactive lane now claims one probe per park window: the founder's
message tries the provider immediately, a success lifts the cooldown for
everyone (a served request is proof of health), and a failed probe re-arms
the park with the probe spent, so a real outage is never hammered.
Autonomous work still waits cooldowns out unconditionally.
Claim priority alone still left the founder waiting behind whatever long
autonomous run held the single execution slot. The worker now runs two
slots: autonomous grinds the queue one run at a time as before, while
the interactive slot claims only human-triggered wakes and executes them
concurrently — a founder message answers in seconds regardless of what
the company is building in the background. Housekeeping (wake expiry,
goal reviews, heartbeat enqueue) now runs every tick instead of pausing
during long runs. Integration test pins the concurrency: the CEO's reply
lands while a gated autonomous run is still in flight.
Wake runs stamp sourceSenderType into their secret scope, and the claim
query orders interactive-first: a wake born from an employee or board
message means a person is waiting at the keyboard, so it outranks any
autonomous backlog; within each lane FIFO holds. Non-chat runs carry no
stamp and stay in the autonomous lane. With wake expiry this closes the
live incident: the founder's CEO DM now claims on the next tick instead
of 13th in line. Red-green tested.
Live incident: the founder DMed the CEO and got silence — the reply run
sat 13th in a FIFO queue behind chat wakes from four days ago, which the
reopened app was faithfully executing (necro-replies that woke yet more
agents). A wake run is a conversation reply; past one hour the moment is
gone. expireStaleChatWakes (chat-agent-wake-service) fails queued
chat_mention runs older than the TTL and closes their vehicle tasks;
the worker tick runs it before claiming, with one log line. Real work
(heartbeat/kickoff triggers) never expires. Red-green tested.
The board draining to 280/280 done left the company idle under a
still-active goal, with 24 markdown files and zero code as its life's work.
Two structural gaps caused it: goals had no lifecycle (status was written
once as 'active' and never read again — nothing re-engages anyone when the
last task closes), and nothing anywhere distinguished plans from product,
so every "engineering" objective closed on documents.
The loop, closed:
- tasks.origin (migration 055) records provenance: chat_wake for mention
vehicles (backfilled from their runs), goal_review for checkpoints, null
for real work. Chatter and checkpoints can therefore never count as
progress.
- spawnGoalReviews (each worker tick): an active goal with zero open tasks
and real progress since the last review gets ONE review task for the goal
owner. The review demands evidence — list the workspace, read the code,
run the tests; documents are how work starts, not proof it happened — and
must end in exactly one of: complete_goal, or the next wave of tasks with
requires_filesystem engineering. A review closed with neither spawns
nothing: termination is structural, not a counter.
- complete_goal (CEO or goal owner) finally lets someone say a goal is
achieved, audited.
- CEO and department-head voices now state the doctrine: a goal that
promises software closes on code that builds and passes tests in the
workspace, and implementation is delegated with requires_filesystem: true.
On the live profile this arms one review: the active platform goal has 0
open tasks and 21 real completed ones, so the CEO gets the checkpoint on
next launch and the company starts building instead of stopping.
The July 9 run died at 07:22 when the GPT account hit its plan-side usage
limit: every later request failed with "The usage limit has been reached",
each failure counted against the 3-attempt retry budget, and 31 tasks were
abandoned for good while the worker kept hammering 12 doomed requests a
minute until the queue drained.
Root fix, three parts sharing one classifier:
- isTransientProviderFailure() in provider-runtime-domain recognises
provider-side verdicts (usage limit, rate limit, 429, overloaded) plus the
internal monthly-quota message; matching is against recorded
task_runs.error_message rows, so historical damage heals retroactively.
- enqueueHeartbeatRuns computes the retry budget with that predicate instead
of an exact match on the internal quota string alone.
- A transient failure parks the provider for a 10-minute cooldown: the
heartbeat stops enqueuing its tasks and the worker leaves its queued runs
unclaimed, then a single probe run re-arms or clears the park. Transitions
are logged once each way.
Tests: predicate unit tests, budget-exemption regression on the raw provider
message, cooldown park/resume with an injected clock, claim exclusion.
Two operator asks, one review gate:
Avatar portraits (migration 052): the avatar editor gains "Upload
photo" - the renderer downscales the chosen picture to a ~96px cover
crop and stores it as a small data URL (PNG keeps transparency, the
rest compresses to JPEG), so the snapshot stays light and the CSP needs
nothing new. The portrait wins over emoji and initials everywhere the
shared Avatar renders (chat, org chart, office card, sidebar), and
"Remove photo" falls back cleanly. The main process validates scheme
and size (base64 image data URL, <=300k chars) so a rogue caller cannot
re-bloat the snapshot. e2e uploads a real PNG through the profile
dialog and sees the portrait land in the sidebar.
Global pause (migration 053): when agents start talking in circles,
one topbar toggle - visible on every page - pulls the handbrake.
app_state.autorun_paused survives restarts; the queue worker checks it
each tick and neither enqueues nor claims while set (the run already in
flight finishes). Queued work simply waits and the paused state renders
as an amber "resume" pill. A unit test drives the real worker: paused
leaves a queued run untouched through many ticks, resuming claims it
within moments; e2e flips the toggle in the live shell.
- Migration 049: avatar_emoji/avatar_color on agents and employees
- updateAgent accepts a new name (mention-name validated) and avatar;
new updateEmployeeProfile renames the operator and sets their avatar
- Avatars are emoji-on-color tiles (renderer CSP blocks remote images);
an AvatarDirectoryContext built from the snapshot lets the shared
Avatar component honor custom looks at every call site - chat rows,
conversation list, org chart, office card, sidebar - without
threading props through pages
- Team edit dialog gains Name + avatar editor (CEO included); the
sidebar foot opens an Edit-profile dialog for the operator
- e2e: rename an agent to a new mention handle with an emoji avatar,
edit the operator profile, both verified in the live shell
Skills no longer come from the user's ~/.agents library - most users have
none, and the CEO branch that compiled the entire catalogue into its
prompt overflowed the model context (1.1MB) and failed every CEO run.
- Bundle "built-in skills/" with the app (extraResources) and stage it
at startup into <profile>/builtin-skills as one dir-per-skill copy -
both bundle shapes (SKILL.md dirs and flat category .md files)
normalize into the same importable layout
- Import the staged catalogue per org at startup and inside onboarding,
so the CEO's first run already carries it
- Forced house style: resolveRuntimeSnapshot unions the humanizer skill
into every agent's runtime (CEO included) as a resolution rule - no
binding row to forget, delete, or bypass; revoke_skill refuses it
- CEO staffs hires with skills: hire_agent accepts a skills array,
grant_skill/revoke_skill adjust later, list_skills now shows
descriptions from skill frontmatter
- Kill the c_suite compile-all branch; everyone resolves bindings-only,
capped at 200k chars with omissions named in the prompt
- Remove the Skills settings page and its import/sync/test IPC surface;
drop ~/.agents discovery and the AGENTCOMPANY_NEW_SKILLS_ROOT seam in
favor of AGENTCOMPANY_NEW_BUILTIN_SKILLS_DIR
- Tests: staging/import/forced-resolution/cap units, real-bundle CI
check, e2e asserts the tab is gone and the catalogue self-imports
