The mise-init agent wedged on launch and the UI reported it green. Three
distinct problems, fixed together:
1. Onboarding wedge (the proximate bug). A freshly-installed claude opens
interactive setup — theme picker, then a folder-trust prompt — before
the REPL. A detached tmux agent has no one to answer it, so it sat on
the theme picker forever while agents.status said 'working'. New
control.claude_config.ensure_onboarded() marks onboarding complete and
trusts the working dir in ~/.claude.json (merge-only, so the login
flow's oauthAccount survives); spawn() calls it before launching.
2. Config-name gate. control/mise.py only recognized `.mise.toml`, so a
repo shipping `mise.toml` (no dot) — or config under `.config/mise/` —
failed the [tasks.test] gate even when healthy. It now accepts the
filenames mise itself reads and scans them all for the test task.
3. "Done" != done (the design gap). A spawned agent's real state lives in
its tmux pane, but the socket is control-container-only, so the API
couldn't see it. The worker now snapshots each working agent's pane
tail (last ~40 lines) into two new agents columns (last_output,
output_at, migration 0007) on its existing poll loop; the API
serializes them and AgentsSection renders a live-output <pre> under
each running agent. A wedged agent now shows the theme picker instead
of a misleading green badge.
Tests: home-dir writes are isolated to tmp in conftest; added coverage for
claude_config seeding/merge, the mise filename set, the worker capture
(including dead-session skip), and the API serialization.

Reproduced the failure against a real claude 2.1 in tmux. Two root causes,
both now fixed (the URL was never wrong — claude genuinely emits
`claude.com/cai/oauth/authorize`, so extraction was fine):
1. Submit race (the actual failure). `send_keys` sent the code and Enter
together; for a long real code the Enter is processed before Ink commits the
paste, so nothing submits — the session sits at "Paste code here > ****…",
exactly what the activity log showed. Fix: deliver the code as a bracketed
paste (tmux set-buffer/paste-buffer, new tmux.send_text), let it settle, then
send Enter separately (tmux.send_enter). Verified end-to-end: the separate
Enter submits and claude proceeds to the exchange.
2. Fragile onboarding. A fresh claude shows a theme picker, then the
login-method menu, before any URL — the old blind /login+Enter+Enter only
reached the menu by luck. Fix: start() now reads the pane each pass and reacts
— accept theme/trust/continue prompts, pick the default subscription option on
the login-method menu, and send /login once only when already onboarded at the
REPL.
Also: confirm login by watching ~/.claude.json (where claude stores the account
on Linux) plus a success-text fallback, and fail fast on an "OAuth error /
Press Enter to retry" screen instead of waiting out the poll. Tests updated to
the real TUI screen text. Suite green (200).

Testing the web login surfaced a truncated authorization URL
(…client_id=9d1c250a-e61b-44d9-88) and a "missing redirect_uri" error: the
login session ran at the default 80 columns, so claude clipped the long URL and
capture-pane read it back cut off.
- Launch the login session with a very wide, tall window (500x50) via new
optional width/height on tmux.new_session, so claude prints the URL on one
unclipped line.
- Harden URL extraction to stop at box-drawing glyphs (U+2500–U+257F) in case
the TUI renders the link flush against a border.
Tests: assert the wide window is requested, and that extraction keeps a full
redirect_uri/PKCE URL intact and strips a trailing box border. Suite green (197).

Phase 2 configures forge for the agents (operator only sets a credential_ref +
optional version pin) and lets them drive a junior→senior→deploy workflow:
- Credential resolution/injection (control/credentials.py): credential_ref pointers
(env:/file:/cmd:) resolved only at spawn, injected as FORGE_TOKEN + host var, with a
forge-host-scoped git credential helper reading the token from env (never on disk / in
the DB). Resolution is a fail-fast spawn gate.
- Role-based forge skills committed into the managed repo (control/skills_gen.py,
`handler forge-init`): forge-junior/senior/deploy + a workflow overview.
- Hard approval gate (hooks/gate.py, approvals table, migration 0002): merge/deploy —
and direct pushes to protected branches — are denied unless a DIFFERENT agent has an
`approved` record for the branch, pinned to the reviewed commit (approved_sha). Senior
records verdicts via `handler approve`/`reject`.
- forge/git seams (control/forge.py, control/gitops.py) matching the Phase 1 seam pattern.
- CI status poller (control/poller.py, `handler poll-ci [--watch]`) backfilling
ci_status/ci_checked_at via `forge ci list`.
- Fix: migrations/env.py commits explicitly after run_migrations — pysqlite on Py 3.12+
was rolling back the final migration's DDL + alembic_version stamp (latent in Phase 1).
Reviewed via a separate code-reviewer pass; gate-bypass and credential-scoping findings
addressed. 106 tests, ruff clean, verified end-to-end against real git + migrations.
Implements the Phase 1 MVP from the README: a stateless control layer + HTTP
API over a centralized database, with hook-enforced test/push gates.
- DB layer: SQLAlchemy Core, one schema rendering both Postgres (BIGSERIAL /
TIMESTAMPTZ / JSONB) and SQLite (INTEGER PK / TEXT / JSON) via portable types;
native ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE checkmark upsert on both dialects.
- Alembic dual-dialect migrations (render_as_batch for SQLite); tests run a real
`alembic upgrade head`.
- FastAPI: projects/agents/checkmark/log/answer/resume + shared log/context
routes, single global bearer token, higher-trust token gating shared-context
writes, project isolation on every route.
- Hooks (`python -m handler.hooks <event>`): Stop test gate (block on red),
PreToolUse AskUserQuestion defer + `git push` gate (tests then throwaway
build), Notification generic webhook (no-op without WEBHOOK_URL). Identity via
env injected at spawn; verify is the mock seam.
- Control CLI: spawn/list/attach/kill, hard `.mise.toml [tasks.test]` gate,
generated per-agent settings.json, identity + DATABASE_URL injected via tmux;
tmux is the mock seam.
- 45 tests (SQLite), ruff clean. Live claude/tmux/mise spawning deferred behind
the mocked seams.
