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.

API Design Checklist
Pre-Implementation Review
Resource Design
- Resources are nouns, not verbs
- Plural names for collections
- Consistent naming across all endpoints
- Clear resource hierarchy (avoid deep nesting >2 levels)
- All CRUD operations properly mapped to HTTP methods
HTTP Methods
- GET for retrieval (safe, idempotent)
- POST for creation
- PUT for full replacement (idempotent)
- PATCH for partial updates
- DELETE for removal (idempotent)
Status Codes
- 200 OK for successful GET/PATCH/PUT
- 201 Created for POST
- 204 No Content for DELETE
- 400 Bad Request for malformed requests
- 401 Unauthorized for missing auth
- 403 Forbidden for insufficient permissions
- 404 Not Found for missing resources
- 422 Unprocessable Entity for validation errors
- 429 Too Many Requests for rate limiting
- 500 Internal Server Error for server issues
Pagination
- All collection endpoints paginated
