Runs record a context manifest once a model turn succeeds; the chat
marks each human message with the agents that read its current version.

create_task now pins upstream files by content hash and carries the
source task, source thread, verified facts, open questions and
acceptance criteria into the assignee's prompt.

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.

- New oauth/kimi-code-flow.ts mirrors the official kimi-cli: form-encoded device_authorization + token polling at auth.kimi.com with the required X-Msh-* device headers, pure poll interpreter, 15-minute tokens refreshed via refresh_token grant
- Agent loop runs chat completions at https://api.kimi.com/coding/v1 with the Bearer access token; default model kimi-for-coding (kimi-for-coding-highspeed for Allegretto+ plans)
- Live model listing via /coding/v1/models; credential refresh wired into the turn credential resolver
- Migration 057 seeds the provider (disabled) into existing organizations
- Wire protocol probed live: device code issued, authorization_pending poll observed, 401 envelope on the coding API confirmed
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.
Of the 202 tasks stranded in the backlog on July 9, 200 were "Reply to ..."
wake vehicles: every agent @mention creates a task plus a queued run, the
reply goes out, and nothing ever closed the task — a task with a completed
run is never enqueued again, so each one became a permanent zombie row. On
top of that, every message in an active thread minted a fresh wake even when
the target already had one queued, multiplying runs that would each read the
same conversation.
The lifecycle contract, made explicit:
- The reply run IS the wake task's deliverable. Completing a chat_mention
run now closes its task (backlog/in_progress -> done, via the audited
status path). Tasks an agent moved to review are left alone.
- One pending wake per (agent, thread): wakeFromMention returns the queued
run instead of minting a duplicate — that run reads the thread's newest
messages when it executes anyway.
- Migration 054 heals existing rows: wake tasks whose runs are all spent
close as done; in-flight wakes keep working. This also stops Fix 1's
retry-budget healing from resurrecting 31 stale replies on next launch.
The chat-governance loop test now completes each pending wake run between
posts, matching how the exchange actually interleaves in production.
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.
The whole app turned to molasses because snapshot.load() shipped the
entire skill_runtime_snapshots table - unbounded, compiled_prompt
included - over IPC on every refresh. A real profile carried 142 rows
totaling 144MB (1.1MB each from the pre-cap CEO compile-all era), so
every coalesced refresh serialized ~144MB of JSON. The forced-humanizer
rework made it worse by adding a row per run for every agent.
- Drop skillRuntimeSnapshots, skillRevisions, skillTests, and
skillBindings from the renderer snapshot: no renderer surface reads
them; skill internals are main-process state. Only the lightweight
skillDefinitions catalogue still ships.
- Project provider_requests without raw_response_json (4.1MB across the
newest 100 rows; RunsPage only reads responseText)
- Migration 051 purges the bug-era compiled prompts from existing DBs
- resolveRuntimeSnapshot is now idempotent per run: a run re-queued by
startup recovery reuses its frozen snapshot instead of dying on the
uniqueness guard and burning real retry budget
- Regression test pins the contract: a 2MB database row must not add
bytes to the snapshot (payload asserted under 400KB)
Researched how OKR-run companies cascade (company objective -> C-suite
officers per function -> department objectives -> individual key
results) and encoded that shape into how the CEO builds the org.
- hire_agent gains seniority (director/lead/staff; c_suite stays
reserved for the CEO's privileges) and a business-card title, so the
CEO hires a CTO/CFO/CMO as directors instead of a flat pool of ICs
- CEO persona + goal kickoff now direct the OKR cascade: hire 2-4
officers, hand each a department objective, let them build teams;
department heads get their own doctrine (hire leads/staff, cascade
key results as tasks, report up)
- Migration 050 adds Finance and Sales to every org's canonical
departments (backfilled for existing DBs) so a real C-suite has
somewhere to hire
- Org chart viewport is a fixed-height scroll region: zooming rescales
the diagram inside it instead of resizing the card
- Unit test drives a live three-level chain: CEO -> CTO (director) ->
Engineering Manager (lead) -> staff, with rank/title persisted
- 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
Root cause of the recurring 401: a revoked key was hardcoded in
startup-recovery.ts and onboarding-service.ts and reseeded into
composio_settings on every launch, and the interim fix shipped cred.txt
as a visible file under resources/.
- electron.vite.config.ts reads the gitignored cred.txt at build time
and injects the key into the main-process bundle as
__COMPOSIO_API_KEY__; no credential file is packaged and the key is
not user-visible or configurable. The renderer bundle never sees it.
- Delete both hardcoded-key seeders; migration 046 purges stored
api_key and never-read toolkits rows while keeping entity_id and
auth_config state.
- Stop shipping composio_settings in the renderer snapshot.
The legacy application - its src, tests, landing site, promo assets, docs,
release tooling, CI workflows, and root configs - leaves the tree; it stays
reachable in history. Everything under AgentCompany-New moves up unchanged:
same package name, so the production userData/database path is untouched,
and e2e/build scripts already resolved paths relative to the project. The
developer cred.txt stays gitignored at its new location. Full verify:ci
passes from the new root.
Before v52, resolveWorkspaceWithLockMode walked a four-step fallback
chain (task → agent → project → any company workspace) and marked
every resolved row exclusive. In a multi-agent company every heartbeat
collapsed onto the same company workspace row, every run claimed the
same exclusive lock, and only one agent ever executed at a time.
Root cause is a missing column: per-task 'does this task touch the
filesystem?' had no place to live, so the orchestrator defaulted to
yes on everything. v52 gives that question its own column.
Backfill is conservative:
- in-flight tasks (in_progress + active_run_id) → 1 (preserve
the lease the dispatcher already holds)
- todo/backlog tasks whose assignee is an engineering-flavoured
role (CTO/engineer/developer/devops/sre or department =
engineering) → 1
- everything else → 0
TaskRecord now exposes requiresFilesystem on both entityCrud.getTask
and the snapshot read path.
Production bug on launch — user reports UI 'FOREIGN KEY constraint
failed' on 启动公司 and the main-process log loops forever with
'[heartbeat] CEO not ready: checkout_race_lost'. Both trace to the
same root cause introduced by v50 (e2c839b..2656684 B2 Phase 1):
task_leases.run_id TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES runs(id)
The orchestration sequence contradicts this FK. In both heartbeat.ts
(line 165) and task-runner.ts (line 91), the caller generates a fresh
runId = randomUUID() and immediately calls db.tasks.checkoutTask
BEFORE the corresponding row is inserted into the runs table. The
legacy tasks.checkout_run_id column has always been 'dangling
allowed' — the run row saves later when task-runner.ts opens the
run record. v50's FK tightened the shadow lease contract without
coordinating with that insertion sequence, so every checkoutTask
attempt now rolls back with a FK violation, takes the whole CAS
transaction with it, returns changes=0, and the heartbeat reports
checkout_race_lost. The task never advances — the exact orphan
symptom B2 was supposed to eliminate.
Fix: migration v51 recreates task_leases WITHOUT the run_id FK.
- task_id FK + ON DELETE CASCADE stays (a lease for a non-existent
task is still meaningless)
- UNIQUE(task_id, run_id) stays (still a correctness constraint)
- run_id loses the FK — it mirrors the legacy checkout_run_id's
loose semantics, which is exactly what Phase 1 dual-write is
supposed to mirror
- Existing data preserved verbatim via INSERT SELECT
- Uses PRAGMA defer_foreign_keys=ON inside the transaction (the
pragma is valid inside a txn; regular foreign_keys=OFF would not
be since runMigrations already opened BEGIN IMMEDIATE)
Post-v51 the run_id column is still NOT NULL and the shadow probe
(ab4afba) will still surface missing runs as divergence — the FK
tightening is a Phase 2 concern coordinated with the saveRun
insertion order, not a Phase 1 shadow-write concern.
typecheck green, 529 unit tests green, 8/8 eval green.
The `agent_messages.read_at` column has had no production writer since
v12 moved read tracking into the per-viewer `agent_message_reads`
receipts table. It survived anyway, carrying a NULL through every SELECT
list and begging the next maintainer to accidentally read stale data
from it.
- v49 migration: `ALTER TABLE agent_messages DROP COLUMN read_at`
(idempotent: skips if absent).
- messages.ts: SELECTs no longer fetch the column; per-viewer `readAt`
is computed from `agent_message_reads` as before, with `null` for
call-sites that have no viewer context (getAgentMessage /
searchMessages / listAgentInboxUnread).
- runtime-bridge.ts / runtime-message-injector.ts: comments referencing
the dropped column updated to name the read-receipts table instead.
Before running any pending migration, take a synchronous snapshot of the
profile to backups/pre-migration-v<target>-<ts>/ and write a
backup-manifest.json recording reason, schema version, app version, and
git SHA. A failed migration now has a well-labelled recovery point
instead of a half-upgraded profile.
- createAutomaticBackup(reason): synchronous snapshot via VACUUM INTO +
recursive cpSync of logs/artifacts, plus JSON manifest. No fallback —
failure throws so the caller refuses to touch the schema.
- runMigrations accepts createAutomaticBackup and invokes it when any
migration is pending. No optional chaining; callers must supply it.
- AppDatabase constructor takes appVersion so main-runtime stamps the
manifest with app.getVersion().
A DM addressed to one agent that @-mentions another was silently
dropping the second agent out of the conversation:
* `dispatchAgentMessage` added the mentioned agent to the wake set,
so CEO's heartbeat fired — but
* `listAgentInboxUnread` only surfaced messages where the current
agent was `to_agent_id` or sat in a matching channel/project/
department. Mentions were invisible, so CEO's next turn saw nothing
new and returned silently. From the operator's chair this looked
exactly like "CEO ignored me; 张工程师 answered instead".
* `findMentionedAgentIds` had a latent bug on top: its unique-alias
filter used `ids.length === 1`, but a single agent whose name
matched its role registered itself twice, tripped the filter, and
every `@CEO` in a scaffold with role === name was a no-op. Once
inbox visibility was fixed the bug became load-bearing.
Root-cause fixes:
* New migration v48 adds `agent_message_mentions(message_id, agent_id,
company_id, created_at)` so mention fan-out is a first-class join.
* `sendAgentMessage` now takes the resolved mention set and writes
the row + mentions in a single transaction — a crash between the
two writes can no longer leave a message visible to the recipient
but invisible to the mentioned agent.
* `dispatchAgentMessage` computes the mention set exactly once via
`resolveMentionedAgentIds` and hands the same list to both the DB
write and `resolveMessageWakeTargets`, so persistence and wake
stay in lockstep.
* `listAgentInboxUnread` and `listAgentMessages` gain an `id IN
(select message_id from agent_message_mentions …)` clause so the
mentioned agent's inbox actually contains the message that woke it.
* `findMentionedAgentIds` now stores per-alias agent IDs in a `Set`
and filters on `ids.size === 1`, dropping the self-duplication
bug while preserving the "refuse ambiguous aliases" semantics.
* Company teardown drops `agent_message_mentions` alongside the
existing `agent_message_reads` cleanup so deletes stay clean.
Tests pin the new behaviour: a DM with a `@CEO` mention reaches
CEO's inbox and both agents get woken, while a DM whose recipient
is `__board__` never attempts to wake the human sentinel.
Pre-v47 `createDocumentWithLifecycle` wrapped each hook in its own
try/catch and always returned success, so a failure in any of the
downstream hooks (thread event, checkpoint approval, deliverable
review, automation dispatch, reviewer wake) left a live document row
behind with a silently incomplete lifecycle.
Two invariants now hold:
- DB-writing hooks (thread integration, checkpoint approval,
deliverable review) run inside the same `BEGIN IMMEDIATE`
transaction as `saveDocument`. A throw rolls back the document row
along with every partial write, so an operator never sees a
persisted document with a missing thread or skipped approval.
- Cross-process side effects (automation dispatch, reviewer wake) are
enqueued as `document_lifecycle_events` rows inside the same
transaction and processed post-commit. Success stamps
`status = 'succeeded'`; failure stamps `status = 'failed'` with
`last_error`, so partial lifecycle state is observable via
`listFailedForCompany` instead of disappearing into the log tail.
Migration v47 installs the ledger; `buildDocumentLifecycleEventMethods`
exposes the enqueue/running/succeeded/failed transitions; the lifecycle
service drives both.
The old `prepareRun` projection drifted: append-to-shadow, thread-event,
and `markAgentInboxDelivered` ran as three independent writes, so a
crash between the append and the delivered mark replayed the same
inbox row on the next run and double-populated the transcript.
v46 installs `agent_message_projections` keyed by (message_id,
session_id) as the idempotent gate. The projection closure now wraps
the ledger claim, the shadow append, the thread-event write, and the
delivered-mark inside one `BEGIN IMMEDIATE` transaction (exposed via
`AppDatabase.withTransaction`). `claimProjection` returns false on a
replay, so the whole closure short-circuits — no double transcript,
no double thread event.
The natural key used to be (companyId, provider, externalId), so two
workspaces with the same workspace-relative path collided onto one
row. Provenance was also frozen at the first write: `created_by_run_id`
never refreshed, so a run that edited a pre-existing file never
qualified as a deliverable and the DocumentCenter "open" link could
still jump into the first workspace after a repo move.
Migration v45 adds `workspace_id` + `last_touched_by_run_id`, backfills
`workspace_id` via the task/run join, seeds `last_touched_by_run_id =
created_by_run_id`, and installs a partial unique index on
`(company_id, workspace_id, provider, external_id)` scoped to rows
that have a workspace. The artifact projector now records
`workspace_id` on insert and refreshes `last_touched_by_run_id` on
every upsert. The deliverable signal query reads either provenance
column so a run that only edited a pre-existing file still counts.
`resolveWorkProductTarget` prefers the stored `workspace_id` and falls
back to the task/run join for legacy NULL rows.
`init()` ran three implicit data-repair queries on every boot:
`reconcileOrphanedTasks`, `reconcileUnreviewableTasks`, and a
secrets-table migration whose fallback glued legacy rows onto a
synthetic zero UUID when no current company existed. The first
two papered over state-machine leaks at init time — hiding the
real bug and making startup observably mutate production data;
the third silently connected ciphertext to a non-existent company
with no UI visibility and no deletion path.
Root fix: the startup path is now allowed exactly one mutation —
`interruptStaleRuns`, which is crash recovery (running-at-boot =
worker died mid-turn) and cannot be expressed anywhere else.
The dead-letter `in_review` case moves to the transition point:
`tasks-status.guardInReviewHasReviewer` refuses to advance a task
into `in_review` when its assignee is a top-level agent
(`reports_to IS NULL`) and the task is not flagged for user
review. Callers either pre-flag the task (the CEO-completion path
in `automation-run-completion.advanceToInReview` now does this)
or the transition is rejected. No more silent resurrection at
boot; the failure is visible and actionable at source.
The orphan-task reconcile disappears entirely — the `finishRun`
guard already enforces the invariant at the one place a run can
leave the in-progress state, and `recoverStaleLocks` handles
stuck executions at runtime.
The secrets migration now throws when neither
`settings.current_company_id` nor any company row exists, rather
than binding legacy ciphertext to `00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000`.
Legacy rows stay on the old table until the operator creates a
real company, at which point the upgrade succeeds deterministically.
Tests rewritten: the reconciliation regression suite now asserts
the transition-time guard and the lone `interruptStaleRuns`
behavior. `resolve-workspace.test.ts` catches up with the
exclusive-by-default lock policy committed earlier.
Full-codebase ts-prune + manual audit sweep. Every change below is a pure
deletion (or a 2-line re-wire where a dead function was supposed to be
alive). No scope additions.
Dead wrappers / phantom features
- shouldAutoApproveApproval: zero-value wrapper over shouldAutoApprove.
Four call sites now import shouldAutoApprove from execution-policy
directly.
- evaluateRotation(session, connectorId, thresholdsOverride): the
connectorId arg was never read (underscored), and thresholdsOverride
was only exercised by the test suite — no production caller. Signature
collapses to evaluateRotation(session). DEFAULT_THRESHOLDS /
RotationThresholds exports and their tests go with it.
- installLogRedactor: defensive console wrapper that was never wired
from worker-entry. buildRedactor handles the known threat (env-value
leaks); the pattern-based redactTokens stays for tests and future
composition.
Dead files
- resume-interrupted-tasks.ts: helper function never imported.
- service-graph-orchestration-deps.ts: three factory closures
superseded by the inline closures in create-orchestration-service.
Dead exports
- listConnectorsByAuthKind (shared/connector-catalog)
- getLocalePromptInstruction + whole localization.ts file
- ImportantDocType
- main-side ConnectorAuthKind (duplicated the shared one; not referenced)
- CheckpointEngineService, RunHousekeepingService types
- WorkspaceResolution type
- cmdOrCtrlSymbol
- AgentEventPush, CredentialPayload type aliases
- parseApprovalPayloadJson, parseEnvValue, ProviderCard
- getSOP — buildSOPSection reads the SOPS map directly; the individual
getter had no callers. Deduped to a flat array.
- renderWakeReason in wake-reasons/en.ts: byte-for-byte duplicate of the
one in wake-reasons/index.ts.
Forgotten wiring (not cleanup, but adjacent)
- registerAgentStandupRoute: the GET /api/agents/me/standup endpoint is
advertised in every system prompt and wake-reason doc, but the route
handler was never registered in api-server/index.ts. Agents have been
hitting 404 since Pi Mono. Registered.
Dead DB column
- v44 migration drops runs.context_snapshot_json. Column was added by
v16-v25, never written or read, and v43's deliberate preservation
was an interim measure. Same idempotent table-rebuild pattern as
v41/v43.
Test tree
- Phantom-feature threshold override tests removed (3). The rest of
the rotation suite re-expressed against the real maxRuns=20 floor.
495/495 unit tests pass. typecheck + build clean.
These columns and the messages that plumbed them existed for the CLI-
adapter era — Gemini's resume id and provider-specific session params
rode the run-finished envelope back onto the session row so the next
turn could resume. Pi Mono dispatches every provider through pi-ai and
emits neither value. The worker has been posting literal null on every
finish, finalizeRun has been writing null into task_sessions, and
rotateSession has been carrying null forward.
Remove the wire, the writer, the carry-forward, and the columns:
- v43 migration rebuilds task_sessions without session_params_json /
session_display_id, and runs without session_display_id. Follows
the idempotent "create new, copy, swap, reindex" pattern used by
v41. context_snapshot_json is preserved (also unreferenced today
but outside this cleanup's scope).
- RunJob / EnqueueRunPayload / ChildMessage / worker-types zod
schema no longer carry the fields. finishRun() / createNewSession()
signatures tighten in lockstep.
- rotateSession starts the new session with fresh counters and no
carry-forward.
- turn-context resolveSession returns just the session id.
- TaskSessionRecord / RunRecord lose the dead fields.
498/498 unit tests pass. typecheck + build clean.
The per-connector "enabled/disabled model" settings lived under a
global key in the settings key-value table
(`disabled_models:${connectorId}`). No company dimension. Deleting a
company left the pool choices behind, and creating a new company
silently inherited them — the visible symptom was "onboarding's team-
model configuration survives company deletion and pollutes the next
company's CEO model list."
Root fix, not a cleanup hook: the storage becomes a real relational
table with `(company_id, connector_id)` primary key and an
`ON DELETE CASCADE` FK from `companies`. Company deletion wipes pool
config by construction; no cleanup step in `deleteCompany()` can
drift.
Schema (migration v42):
- CREATE TABLE connector_model_pool_settings (company_id, connector_id,
disabled_models_json, updated_at), PK (company_id, connector_id),
FK companies(id) ON DELETE CASCADE.
- Drop every `settings.disabled_models:*` key — these were the bug's
residue; there is no right company to attribute them to, so the
migration clears them. Users re-select on next onboarding.
API surgery — every reader/writer now takes companyId:
- db.getDisabledModels(companyId, connectorId)
- db.setDisabledModels(companyId, connectorId, models)
- db.hasModelPoolSettings(companyId, connectorId)
- connector-model-policy: getConnectorModelPolicy(deps, companyId,
connectorId); validateConnectorModelSelection(deps, companyId,
connectorId, model)
- model-dispatch: listEnabledModels(companyId, deps);
pickModelForAgent resolves companyId from agent.companyId
- orchestration heartbeat/task-runner/turn-context/run-dispatch pass
the agent's or run's companyId through to the policy deps
- IPC schema: connectorDisabledModelsSchema gains companyId; new
connectorModelPoolQuerySchema pairs companyId+connectorId for reads
Onboarding becomes commit-on-launch:
- useConnectorModelSelection no longer persists via IPC during
onboarding. Toggles mutate local state; it exposes `poolSelections`
to the wizard.
- bootstrapOnboardingSchema gains connectorPoolSelections. The
onboarding service saves the company first, then persists each
per-connector disabled list scoped to the new company id — CEO
model validation runs against the company's freshly-persisted pool,
not some stale global.
- IPC setConnectorDisabledModels now requires companyId; the only
consumer was onboarding, which no longer calls it at all.
- Main-side listConnectorModels returns the raw provider catalog
(no pool filtering), since that IPC is used from onboarding where
no company exists yet; pool filtering happens at dispatch time.
saveConnector IPC drops the per-company pool validation — connector
config is a global hint, company-scoped enforcement belongs at run
dispatch where the company is known.
Tests: 603/603 green. Typecheck clean. Integration tests rewritten
to set the pool via connectorPoolSelections on bootstrap input, not
a pre-bootstrap global setDisabledModels call.
Sessions have been agent-scoped since v34, but the schema kept four
dead task-scoped columns that every session code path had to pretend
were meaningful:
- tasks.active_session_id (mirrored agents.session_id)
- tasks.session_json (superseded by task_sessions.session_params_json)
- tasks.session_display_id (superseded by task_sessions.session_display_id)
- task_sessions.task_id (always empty-string on new rows)
v41 drops all four via SQLite table rebuild — the only safe path when
multiple columns need to go in one step and indexes / FK directions
need to be preserved. `PRAGMA foreign_keys = OFF` spans the swap
window so cascade-delete does not fire mid-rebuild. The migration is
idempotent and also backfills the optional task columns
(task_type / requires_user_review / retry_count / last_failure_at /
started_at / completed_at / cancelled_at / checkout_run_id /
execution_locked_at) before rebuilding so it works whether or not
`ensureOptionalColumns` has run yet on this install.
Along with the schema change, every code path that read or wrote
those columns has been rewired to the agent-scoped equivalents:
- task-sessions-crud.ts: deleted updateTaskSession,
getTaskSession, getActiveTaskSession, updateTasksActiveSessionForAgent;
added updateSessionParams(sessionId, ...) for the worker's
finalizer. ensureAgentSession and createNewSession no longer touch
task_id.
- database-base.ts: facade drops the now-unused pass-throughs.
- snapshot.ts / task-queries.ts / tasks-status.ts / entity-crud.ts:
SELECT projections no longer pull session_json / session_display_id
/ active_session_id from tasks.
- tasks-crud.ts (TaskRow) and shared/types/records-core.ts
(TaskRecord): sessionJson / sessionDisplayId fields removed.
- TaskSessionRecord: taskId field removed.
- turn-context.ts::resolveSession: no more
updateTasksActiveSessionForAgent mirror; sessionParams read directly
from the current session via getSessionById.
- run-finished-helpers.ts::finalizeRun: stamps sessionParams via
updateSessionParams on the agent's current session, resolved through
agents.session_id.
- session-management-service.ts: rotateSession stops calling
updateTasksActiveSessionForAgent.
Test suite updated to use the new session-id API. Existing tests used
`getActiveTaskSession(taskId)` and `createNewSession({ taskId, ...})`
as probes; they now use `getSessionById(sessionId)` and the taskId-less
createNewSession input.
Tests: 603/603 green. Typecheck clean. Migration tested on fresh DB
(runs v1→v41 cleanly) and idempotent re-apply (detects absent dead
columns, skips).
Sessions are already agent-scoped post-v34, but the code kept routing
rotation / accumulation / handoff through the task indirection. Heartbeat
runs (no task) silently skipped all three, letting taskless transcripts
grow past the model's context window — the 7M-token explosion.
- DB adds getSessionById(sessionId) — direct lookup bypassing
tasks.active_session_id
- session-management-service: generateHandoff(session) is now agent-scoped,
walking recent runs across tasks + heartbeats; getHandoffForAgent(agentId)
is the canonical lookup, getHandoffContext(taskId) is a thin shim for
callers that still hold a task id
- turn-context.ts::resolveSession drops the `if (!task)` early return:
rotation evaluation runs on the agent session unconditionally
- run-finished-helpers.ts::accumulateAndRotateSession drops the `!task`
gate: tokens accumulate and rotation fires for every run, keyed on the
agent session, not the task
- Rotation evaluator contract: evaluatePreRunSessionRotation(agentId,
connectorId) → { rotated, handoff, sessionId }; old (taskId, connectorId)
signature removed
IPC contract tightening: ipc-support::emitEvent becomes a best-effort
sink. "Render frame was disposed" during renderer reload is a lifecycle
signal, not a logic error; silently drop it instead of letting it abort
downstream event emissions.
Artifact projection: pi's write/edit tool results now upsert a
`work_products` row via a new agent-runtime/artifact-projector.ts. No
more agents writing 54 files into the workspace that the UI never sees.
Migration v40 relaxes work_products.task_id to nullable so heartbeat
artifacts can register too.
File size: split agent-event-projection.ts out of runtime-bridge.ts to
keep the bridge under the 400-line cap after adding the projector hook.
Tests: 604 unit + integration green; generateHandoff callsites updated
for the single-argument signature; artifact-projector has pure-function
coverage via the projector module's own shape.
schema.ts had grown to 852 LOC — migration history is append-only, so
the file gets bigger every release. Organize by era without fragmenting
the history.

Each era exports a factory `createMigrationsVxxVyy(deps)` that takes
`{ db, readAll }` — migrations' `fn` bodies captured those names via
closure in the original; factory pattern preserves the closure shape
byte-for-byte while making the dependency flow explicit.
Master `schema.ts` imports all four and concatenates them into the
final ascending list. Order preserved including the quirky v31 -> v33
-> v32 -> v34 sequence that predated my changes.
All 37 migrations' `version`, `name`, and `sql`/`fn` bodies are
byte-for-byte identical. No behavior change; 578 tests green.
`database-base.ts` (449 LOC) kept as-is. It's a thin linear pass-
through facade — every method is 1–3 lines. Splitting a facade of
this kind by forcing mixins or abstract classes costs more than it
saves. Not a god component in the Linus sense (one responsibility:
delegate); flagged here so future readers know it's deliberate.
`company_skills.markdown` stored the full SKILL.md body. The on-disk
file under `profile/skills/{companyId}/{slug}/SKILL.md` is what pi-
coding-agent actually reads via `loadSkills` at runtime. The DB column
was a duplicate — import wrote to both, renderer read from DB. Any
discrepancy between disk and DB was invisible until the agent behaved
differently from what the user saw in SkillDetail.
Disk becomes the single source of truth. DB keeps name / description /
metadata / source info / file inventory — the cheap lookup row. UI reads
SKILL.md content live via a new IPC channel.
## Migration v37 (rebuild company_skills without markdown)
Table-rebuild pattern matching v35/v36: `fn:` form, PRAGMA walk for
drift columns, row-count assertion before DROP, `defer_foreign_keys`
for the `agent_skill_assignments(skill_id)` reference. Indexes
recreated. Idempotent via `schema_migrations` ledger.
Existing DB rows' markdown content is discarded — but the on-disk
SKILL.md files are the authoritative copy, so no user-visible data
loss. Any agent using those skills keeps working; the UI just starts
reading from disk instead of the DB cache.
## Code changes
- `src/main/database/skills.ts`: drop `markdown` from read mapping,
upsert input type, INSERT column/bind list, ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE.
- `src/shared/types/records-core.ts`: `SkillRecord.markdown` removed.
- `src/main/skills/import.ts` + `import-github.ts`: drop `markdown:`
from 4 `saveCompanySkill` call sites. Disk-write via
`materializeSkillFiles` unchanged (it's what the file agent reads).
- `src/main/skills/index.ts`: expose `skillFilesDir` for the new IPC
handler to resolve `${profile}/skills/${companyId}/${slug}/SKILL.md`.
- `src/shared/contracts/channels.ts` + `schemas-execution.ts` +
`desktop-api/skills.ts`: new `getSkillMarkdown` channel
`{ companyId, slug } → DesktopResult<string>`.
- `src/preload/index.ts`: expose `getSkillMarkdown(companyId, slug)`.
- `src/main/ipc-skill-handlers.ts`: handler validates schema, ensures
company, resolves path, `readFile`, returns content. Fails closed
with `SKILL_NOT_FOUND` on ENOENT, `SKILL_READ_FAILED` on other
read errors.
- `src/renderer/components/skills/SkillDetail.tsx`: `useEffect` fetches
markdown via IPC when the skill detail loads; shows "Loading…" until
resolved, surfaces read errors. Preserves `stripFrontmatter`.
- Tests: drop `markdown:` from 2 fixture sites
(`skill-types.test.ts`, `skill-aware-assignment.spec.ts`).
## Verification
- typecheck / lint / 578 tests green
- `grep 'skill\.markdown' src/` → 0 DB-record reads
- `grep '\.markdown\b' src/main/database/skills.ts` → 0
- Remaining `.markdown` references are all `ghSkill.markdown` (GitHub
fetcher's intermediate struct feeding `materializeSkillFiles` to
disk) and parameter names in `stripFrontmatter(markdown: string)` /
fs-writer helpers — none read from a DB row.
The NOT NULL constraint forced heartbeat runs to synthesize a fake task
row (`[Heartbeat] X — Check for work`) so the FK could resolve. Three
layers of code — acquireHeartbeatTask, findReusableHeartbeatTask,
cleanupDuplicateHeartbeatTasks, plus the is_heartbeat flag column + UI
filter — existed to paper over one bad constraint. Remove the
constraint and the whole workaround vanishes.
SQLite table rebuild with data preservation. Live production DB, no
backup — migration is atomic, idempotent, and verified before DROP.
## Migration v35 (rebuild runs with nullable task_id)
Uses `fn:` form so it can:
- Snapshot `COUNT(*) FROM runs` before copy
- Walk `PRAGMA table_info(runs)` to detect drift columns (v34 declared
a column set; any additive ALTER since v14 shows up here)
- Assert `COUNT(*) FROM runs_new == beforeCount` before `DROP TABLE runs`
- `PRAGMA defer_foreign_keys = ON` so run_events(run_id) FK defers to
commit time, by which runs has the same id set under the new name
- Recreate all 6 indexes on the new table
If the assertion fails, the migration throws inside the existing
`transaction()` wrapper. SQLite rolls back the whole migration, old
`runs` table is untouched, `schema_migrations` never records v35. Next
app start retries cleanly.
## Migration v36 (drop tasks.is_heartbeat + synthetic rows)
Runs now carry `task_id = NULL` for heartbeat dispatches. The
`is_heartbeat` flag is dead data going forward.
1. `UPDATE runs SET task_id = NULL WHERE task_id IN (SELECT id FROM tasks WHERE is_heartbeat = 1)`
2. `DELETE FROM tasks WHERE is_heartbeat = 1` (synthetic rows, not real work)
3. Rebuild `tasks` without the `is_heartbeat` column (same defer-FK +
row-count-assert pattern as v35)
## Code cleanup
- `RunRecord.taskId: string | null`; `createRun` / `cancelRunForDeletion`
/ `finishRun` guard every `UPDATE tasks` path with a null-check.
- `TaskRecord.isHeartbeat` removed; every SELECT / filter / UI reference
dropped.
- Delete `acquireHeartbeatTask` / `findReusableHeartbeatTask` /
`cleanupDuplicateHeartbeatTasks` — dead after the constraint lifts.
- Delete `src/main/orchestration/heartbeat-task.ts` (pure workaround
constant file).
- `heartbeat.ts` creates runs with `taskId: null` when the agent has no
assigned work. Turn context already supports nullable task
(heartbeatFallbackSection); prompt surface unchanged.
- `validateTaskCreation` drops the `isHeartbeat` parameter — user-
authored + automation-authored tasks are never heartbeat.
- Renderer: `run.taskId ? taskMap.get(...) : undefined` in Dashboard /
RunCenter / RunDetail / RunQueue.
- Delete `tests/unit/heartbeat-coalescing.test.ts` (12 tests that
exercised the deleted DB methods).
- Drop 1 isHeartbeat-bypass test from `task-quality-gates.test.ts`.
## Grep verification
- `isHeartbeatTaskTitle src/` → 0
- `acquireHeartbeatTask src/` → migration comment only
- `is_heartbeat src/` → schema.ts migration history only
- `isHeartbeat src/` → 0
Tests: 578/578 (was 591 — delta is 13 tests that tested deleted code).
Sessions were keyed by (task, agent). Every task switch started a fresh
transcript — the agent lost everything it had learned on the previous
task. That breaks the product premise: a CEO should remember its past
decisions, an engineer should carry context between bugs.
Move pi's AgentMessage transcript to be agent-scoped. One session per
agent (per company). Tasks enter the ongoing conversation as user turns;
rotation/compaction boundaries follow the agent's long-running session.
Additive schema only — no row rewrites on the live production DB.
- Migration v34: `ALTER TABLE agents ADD COLUMN session_id TEXT` +
`idx_agents_session_id`. `ensureOptionalColumns` mirror for fresh DBs.
- `AgentRecord.sessionId?: string | null` in the read model; included
in every full-agent SELECT (entity-crud, snapshot, agents-hierarchy
chain-of-command / direct-reports / heartbeat-eligible).
- `db.ensureAgentSession({ agentId, companyId, adapterType })` —
idempotent: returns existing `agents.session_id` if set, else inserts
a new `task_sessions` row with an empty `task_id` sentinel (agent-
scoped, task-id is now metadata) and stores the id on the agent.
- `db.setAgentSessionId(agentId, sessionId)` — used by rotation.
- `db.updateTasksActiveSessionForAgent(agentId, sessionId)` — mirrors
the agent's current session onto every task the agent owns, so
existing per-task readers (`tasks.active_session_id`) still work.
- `turn-context.resolveSession`: pulls the agent's session via
`ensureAgentSession` instead of `getActiveTaskSession(task.id)`,
then points the current task at it so UI continues to resolve.
- `session-management-service.rotateSession`: new session carries
`taskId:""`, then `setAgentSessionId` + `updateTasksActiveSessionForAgent`
so every task the agent owns follows the rotation boundary.
- `session-entries.listActive`: `ORDER BY created_at, sequence` — the
created_at timestamp is authoritative; sequence stays as same-ms
tiebreaker. Forward-safety for future merge scenarios.
Existing agents' first post-upgrade run creates a fresh agent-scoped
session. Their pre-migration per-task transcripts remain in the DB as
historical records but are not loaded for new runs. This is a one-time
transcript reset, accepted over a risky lossy merge on the live DB.
