Rewrite ~376 call sites for messages, runs, approvalsMod, and company
domains and delete the corresponding pass-through methods on
AppDatabase / AppDatabaseBase. Structural type references
(ReturnType<HandlerDeps["db"]["getRun"]>) and SweepStaleReviewsDeps-style
mocks are updated to route through the owning sub-module.
Rewrite ~525 call sites from `db.<method>()` to `db.<module>.<method>()`
for tasks and agents domains (including `getAgent`/`findAgent`/`getTask`
which live on the `entityCrud` field). Delete the corresponding
pass-through methods on AppDatabaseBase. Structural types that narrowed
`db` to a bag of flat methods (CapabilityMatchDb, EscalationDeps,
SweepStaleReviewsDeps) are reshaped to match the new namespace. Internal
callback references inside database.ts/database-base.ts now invoke the
owning module directly (e.g. `this.agents.saveAgent`) rather than the
deleted pass-through.
The codemod lives at scripts/codemod/remove-appdatabase-passthrough.mjs
and filters by owning module + optional explicit method list. It is
idempotent and does not re-rewrite already-namespaced calls.
Top-level tasks submitted to in_review fired the same
subtask_completed wake as the subtree leaves, so the reviewer's
prompt framed the work as "a subtask you delegated". Add a dedicated
task_review_requested wake reason with a reviewer-specific title and
step list, and route the parent-less branch of the task PATCH handler
through it.
The database layer already refuses to advance a top-level assignee's
task to in_review without requires_user_review=1 — the right
invariant. But the HTTP route caught nothing specific and returned a
bare 500, so the CEO prompt had to carry a paragraph of "the system
will demote any such task back to todo, but the cycle wastes a
heartbeat slot" prose to keep the model away from the error path.
Translate the guard to a 422 NO_REVIEWER_ON_TOP_LEVEL_TASK response
with an actionable hint and rewrite the prompt section to describe
the contract instead of begging the model to avoid the failure.
Also drop the residual skill-looping paragraph now that hires get
their default kit on approval.
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).
The earlier sweep cleaned the hot path (worker/runtime/automation/api-
server/ipc core — 59 sites). This pass finishes the deferred long tail:
main/* services, database/* CRUD modules, api-server/* routes, ipc-*
handlers, thread-integration, automation helpers, browser, skills.
Default strategy: catch (error) { logger.warn("[module] context:", ...) }
— preserve current behavior, make the failure visible instead of
silently hidden. Widened 3 logger interface signatures to include warn
where callers only passed info/error previously (thread-helpers,
host-environment-service, ipc-domain-common).
Legitimate boundaries left intact: JSON.parse on untrusted input, DNS
resolver no-records paths, explicit safe* helpers (safeJson, parseJson,
parseTriggerDetail), URL-parse predicates, and `<unserialisable>`
fallbacks inside the prompt-builder summarisers. Each kept catch now
either has a reason in context or is a documented safe* helper.
Tests adjusted only where test-constructed no-op loggers needed a warn
stub (message-dispatch, company-mode-switch, ipc-agent-graph-handlers).
With the earlier pass, AgentCompany no longer has silently-swallowing
catch blocks in main-process or renderer business code.
Replace inline queryAll calls in routes-tasks.ts with two new domain
methods: tasks.listTasksByStatuses (used by GET /api/companies/:id/issues)
and documents.listImportantDocsForReview (used by the deliverable-review
gate). Routes now hold no SQL or column-mapping logic; the
TaskListByStatusesRow shape preserves the existing HTTP response fields
including requiresUserReview as a boolean.
Move the duplicated important-document-type list out of routes-tasks.ts
and routes-files.ts into src/shared/document-categories.ts so the array
and lookup set live in one place.
