HEAD: 935eb5d Enforce runtime work registration
Git status at generation: clean
Runtime daemon: fresh, restart_required=false

## Executive Summary

The last roughly 12 hours focused on Runtime Action Panel reliability, service downtime proof, deterministic operator/assistant message capture, frontend/backend architecture enforcement, Telegram shell retirement, carry-forward reconciliation, and finally Runtime work check-in/check-out enforcement.

The work closed chunks 000238 through 000259. There are currently no active, backlog, or draft chunk files.

Major outcomes:

- Service downtime/restart state became more explicit and browser-proven for planned and controlled unplanned cases.
- Runtime Action Panel live updates, socket invalidation, toast/message state, and browser proof channels were hardened.
- Operator / Assistant Messages were added to Health and corrected for freshness, bodies, ordering, and deterministic Codex durable-source capture.
- Frontend architecture rules were made enforceable: UI components render typed view models; services/facades/signals own data/state orchestration.
- Backend/NestJS/Runtime architecture rules were made enforceable through standards, role/template links, and advisory report tooling.
- Assertive solving mode was documented as the local-dev/scaffolding default.
- Telegram command dispatch moved from TSV/shell-owned behavior to YAML/Node/TypeScript ownership.
- Legacy Telegram shell behavior was retired; shell remains only for startup/status/process-control wrappers.
- Runtime work registration is now policy-defined, typed, bounded, queryable, test-covered, and visible in the Runtime Action Panel.
- A late Telegram approval-helper config gap was fixed: `ask-operator.mjs` now loads `ai/tools/telegram/.env` like the typed bridge.

## Operator / Assistant Messages Outcome

Final repo-side state:

- Runtime imports operator prompts from Codex `history.jsonl`.
- Runtime imports assistant inline messages/work updates from Codex SQLite logs.
- Runtime daemon runs a bounded mtime-based passive sync loop.
- Records are de-duped, redacted, bounded, and emitted through Runtime State Journal.
- Backend projects readable message bodies into Admin Runtime Health.
- Socket.IO only invalidates/refetches; it does not become truth.
- Angular renders state through service/facade/signal/view-model flow, not DOM append/injection.
- Browser proof passed and is stored at `ai/reports/report-000257-operator-assistant-message-stream-browser-proof-4.md`.

Caveat: some historical synthetic test messages remain synthetic by nature. Real Codex durable-source records now carry readable bodies when the source has them.

## Runtime Work Registration Outcome

New rule: no workflow work without Runtime work registration.

Implemented in chunk 000259:

- Standard: `ai/standards/work-registration.md`.
- Registry: `ai/governance/registries/work-registration-policy.yaml`.
- Runtime work sessions/steps now carry `work_origin`, `reason`, `source_action`, file-change/follow-up flags, and `required_registration`.
- New/extended CLI/API surfaces include work history, ad hoc work start, and required-registration validation.
- Recent work history is bounded to latest 1000 records / 7 days.
- Validation runner work auto-registers as automatic/required work.
- Ad hoc work is first-class and must include reason/source metadata.
- Missing required registration is test-covered.
- Runtime Action Panel shows active work detail in the live work-session card and labels ad hoc work.
- Stale work is terminalized by Runtime freshness/liveness rules, not frontend inference.

Remaining precise scope:

- More wrappers can be auto-registered as they are touched.
- External Codex raw chat/action behavior cannot be technically forced except through repo-owned command boundaries.
- Existing pending-enforcement items remain `cfd-0005` and `cfd-0020`.

## Telegram Outcome

Final state:

- `ai/governance/registries/operator-commands.yaml` is canonical Telegram command truth.
- `command-registry.tsv` was removed.
- `ai/tools/telegram/lib.sh` was removed.
- `ask-operator.sh`, checkpoint shell helpers, send-message shell facade, send-run-summary shell facade, and shell behavior tests were removed.
- Node/TypeScript entrypoints own ask-operator, checkpoint, send-message, send-run-summary, bridge polling/dispatch, command/alias resolution, confirmations/questions, receipts, and diagnostics.
- Shell remains only for startup/status/process-control wrappers:
  - `ai/tools/telegram/bridge.sh`
  - `ai/tools/telegram/start-bridge.sh`
  - `ai/tools/telegram/status.sh`
  - `ai/tools/telegram/stop-bridge.sh`
- Late fix: `ai/tools/telegram/ask-operator.mjs` now loads configured credentials from `ai/tools/telegram/.env` when they are not exported in the caller shell.

## Architecture Enforcement

Frontend:

- Standard: `ai/standards/angular-ui-data-flow.md`
- Report command: `ai/commands/frontend-architecture-report.sh`
- Tool/test: `ai/tools/frontend-architecture/report.mjs`, `report.test.mjs`
- Canonical rule: UI components render typed view models; services/facades/signals own data/state orchestration.

Backend:

- Standard: `ai/standards/backend-node-nestjs-architecture.md`
- Report command: `ai/commands/backend-architecture-report.sh`
- Tool/test: `ai/tools/backend-architecture/report.mjs`, `report.test.mjs`
- Canonical rule: backend code must have clear layers and typed boundaries.

Assertive solving:

- Standard: `ai/standards/assertive-solving.md`
- Roles/templates/gates updated to solve feasible local blockers instead of creating vague CFDs.
- Conservative mode remains required for authority, security, destructive data, production-risk, and broad architecture decisions.

## Runtime Reliability Notes

- Planned restart browser proof exists.
- Controlled unplanned failure browser proof exists.
- Browser preflight/cleanup improved.
- Runtime API EPIPE write aborts classified as client-disconnect behavior where evidence supports that.
- Service fail/log/read-model/browser proof artifacts updated.
- Socket live invalidation paths strengthened.
- Pull-to-refresh gesture now requires a harder/fixed-distance pull and preserves circular progress semantics.
- Runtime source/build edits make the daemon stale until supervisor reload. This is real freshness protection, not cosmetic noise. The UI now classifies `restart_required` as planned reload-required evidence instead of generic unplanned downtime.

## Open Carry-Forward Items

Current Runtime projection:

- `cfd-0001`: close_commit post-success reconciliation/idempotency anomaly (advisory, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0005`: compatibility-only manual lifecycle mutation paths remain (pending_enforcement, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0006`: Runtime Action Panel technical naming compatibility (compatibility, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0007`: backend e2e requires configured test database (warning, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0008`: frontend bundle and Admin Health SCSS warning budgets remain (warning, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0009`: Playwright browser tooling pinning and invocation guidance (observation, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0011`: Runtime Health role activity lacks scheduled and live work-session visibility (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0012`: Runtime live-update event surface completeness (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0013`: Admin UI style primitives and tab bar polish need centralization audit (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0014`: Authenticated browser and Socket.IO E2E live-update proof (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0015`: Lifecycle and work-package journal producer coverage (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0016`: Human action, approval, and dispatcher journal producer coverage (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0017`: Consultant checkpoint journal producer coverage (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0020`: Assistant final chat summary enforcement remains policy-bound (pending_enforcement, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0022`: Runtime Action Panel needs a small Angular signal facade for route activation and live-state coordination (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0023`: Browser proof channel PID 1 zombie debris and large smoke harness remain (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0024`: Safe real unplanned killed-process resurrection proof remains (follow_up, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0027`: Admin Runtime Health page remains a large frontend aggregation component (advisory, non-blocking)
- `cfd-0028`: Backend and Runtime architecture advisory findings need targeted boundary cleanup (advisory, non-blocking)

Important interpretation:

- `cfd-0004` is resolved after Telegram shell/TSV retirement.
- `cfd-0026` is no longer open after chunk 000257 and reconciliation.
- `cfd-0023` is narrowed to PID 1 zombie debris and large smoke harness maintainability.
- `cfd-0024` is narrowed to safe real killed-process resurrection proof.
- `cfd-0011` remains open only for broader wrapper/role coverage, not for the basic live work-session display added in 000259.

## Validation Notes

Recent validation highlights:

- Runtime work-session focused tests passed.
- Backend Admin Runtime Health focused tests passed.
- Frontend connection-status and app focused tests passed.
- Backend and frontend builds passed.
- GraphQL codegen passed.
- Telegram Node tests passed after dotenv-loading fix.
- Summary validation for chunk 000259 passed.
- Governance core validation passed with existing pending-enforcement items only.
- Runtime daemon freshness is fresh and `restart_required=false`.
- Timeline hot window exceeded the bound by 3 events during close; canonical archive plan/execute moved those 3 old events to dated archive and restored the hot window to 250.

Known caveats:

- Frontend build still has the existing bundle budget warning tracked by `cfd-0008`.
- Backend e2e actual database coverage remains environment-dependent per `cfd-0007`.
- Telegram credential values are intentionally not printed; they are present in `ai/tools/telegram/.env` and now loaded by the Node approval helper when needed.

## Current Repo State

- Active chunks: none.
- Backlog chunks: none.
- Draft chunks: none.
- Git status: clean.
- Latest commit: `935eb5d Enforce runtime work registration`.

## Suggested Next Analysis Targets

1. Broaden automatic work registration wrapper coverage under `cfd-0011`, starting with the highest-value commands still uncovered.
2. Implement safe real killed-process resurrection proof for `cfd-0024` with Runtime-owned supervisor evidence.
3. Keep `cfd-0023` narrow: browser channel PID 1 zombie debris and large smoke harness maintainability.
4. Use frontend/backend architecture reports as review entry points when touching Admin Runtime Health or Runtime bridge code.
5. Consider a small cleanup so Telegram status/checkpoint helpers share one typed config loader, avoiding future dotenv drift.
