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.

Isolate Classes from Change
Depend on abstractions, not concretions. Classes should depend on interfaces rather than concrete implementations. This enables testing and reduces the impact of change.
Incorrect (depends on concrete implementation):
public class Portfolio {
private NYSEStockExchange exchange;
public Portfolio(NYSEStockExchange exchange) {
this.exchange = exchange;
}
public Money value() {
Money total = Money.ZERO;
for (String symbol : holdings.keySet()) {
// Cannot test without real stock exchange connection
total = total.plus(exchange.currentPrice(symbol)
.times(holdings.get(symbol)));
}
return total;
}
}
Correct (depends on abstraction):
public interface StockExchange {
Money currentPrice(String symbol);
}
public class Portfolio {
private StockExchange exchange;
public Portfolio(StockExchange exchange) {
this.exchange = exchange;
}
public Money value() {
Money total = Money.ZERO;
for (String symbol : holdings.keySet()) {
total = total.plus(exchange.currentPrice(symbol)
.times(holdings.get(symbol)));
}
return total;
}
}
// Production
Portfolio portfolio = new Portfolio(new NYSEStockExchange());
// Testing
@Test
public void portfolioValueShouldSumAllHoldings() {
StockExchange mockExchange = mock(StockExchange.class);
when(mockExchange.currentPrice("AAPL")).thenReturn(Money.dollars(150));
Portfolio portfolio = new Portfolio(mockExchange);
portfolio.add("AAPL", 10);
assertEquals(Money.dollars(1500), portfolio.value());
}
Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP): High-level modules should not depend on low-level modules. Both should depend on abstractions.
