Description
MC-4026
Next page in MC-4000 unified recovery loop after Home/chat (MC-4019 Lane A shipped).
Scope: audit MC Board page (/board) end-to-end for source-of-truth and safety issues. Priority order per orchestrator:
1. Status transitions: todo->in_progress->in_review->done correctness, race conditions, signal handling
2. Worker-review / needs_input surfacing: are blocked/review tickets visible and routable?
3. Stale/orphaned runtime state: tickets pointing at dead tmux sessions, leaked PIDs, dispatcher orphans
4. UI affordances that can misroute or hide work: filters, default views, archive vs delete, assignment changes
Process (mirror MC-4019 Lane A):
- Discovery pass: map board endpoints, queries, render path, signal emitters (file:line refs)
- Synthesize Lane A (safety + source-of-truth) work items with acceptance criteria
- Delegate implementation to worker ticket(s); foreground coordinator only
- Regression tests + Tessa/browser QA + docs update
- Ship to master with MC_SIGNAL
Inputs:
- docs/runtime-architecture-refresh.md (canonical contract)
- mc_pickup.py pool/orphan logic (MC-3972, MC-3974)
- Home audit precedent: MC-4019 commit f518e83
- Worktree pool rules: MC-3840
Block on: any Board finding that creates dependency on Workbench/Tasks pages -- escalate to umbrella MC-4000 for sequencing.

Work this ticket in the live tmux runtime. Use DONE:, REVIEW:, or QUESTION: when you need MC to reflect the next state.

Discovery + Lane A synthesis complete.
Audit (8 risks, see docs/plans/2026-05-23-mc-board-lane-a.md for file:line refs):
1. api_update_ticket accepts arbitrary status strings — no state-machine gate (app.py:5807-5956).
2. Race between update_ticket and auto-pickup re-read (app.py:5889-5898).
3. quickStatus has no client-side transition validation (app.js:509-545).
4. Orphan reclaim TOCTOU guarded (safe) but Board never surfaces orphan state.
5. Board cards do NOT render worker_pid / heartbeat / orphan warning — in_progress is opaque.
6. needs_input + in_review invisible on default Focus tab (intentional per MC-3426 but no surfacing).
7. Snooze silently ignored on human-gate states (models.py:1625-1632 exempts them but never rejects the write).
8. Circuit-breaker "blocked" tab hidden when count=0 — concept may be invisible to operators.
Lane A spec: 6 surgical work items B.1-B.6 covering safety + source-of-truth only. No kanban, no archive redesign, no MCP-source indicator (deferred to Workbench audit per dependency rule).
Worker ticket spawned: MC-4027 (assigned luci, high priority). Single-session dev-loop, mirrors MC-4019 / commit f518e83 shape. MC-4026 stays open until MC-4027 lands + docs verified.
No cross-page dependencies surfaced — Workbench/Tasks audits can proceed in parallel under MC-4000 once Elmar acks Lane A scope.

Board audit done. 8 risks found; Lane A spec'd as 6 surgical items (state-machine gate, atomic auto-pickup, runtime liveness dot on in_progress cards, focus-tab attention strip, snooze rejection, frontend transition guard). Worker ticket MC-4027 spawned with full acceptance criteria + spec doc docs/plans/2026-05-23-mc-board-lane-a.md. No Workbench/Tasks dependency. Awaiting ack on Lane A scope before worker dispatch; umbrella MC-4000 can release Workbench audit in parallel.

Orchestrator gate: verified Board Lane A audit/synthesis deliverable. Spec exists at docs/plans/2026-05-23-mc-board-lane-a.md (216 lines) and worker ticket MC-4027 exists with the six surgical safety/source-of-truth items. No human scope ack needed; these are implementation/safety calls. Linked MC-4027 as child_of MC-4026, promoted MC-4027 to todo for pickup, and parked MC-4026 in waiting blocked_by:MC-4027 until implementation lands. No Workbench/Tasks dependency surfaced; MC-4000 remains waiting on the Board lane chain.

Coordinator no-op. MC-4026 parked waiting; blocked_by MC-4027 (Lane A implementation). Discovery + spec + worker ticket already shipped this session. No cross-page dependency. Will resume on MC-4027 DONE: for docs verification + ship-to-master gate.
Luci21d ago
REVIEW: Coordinator parked. MC-4026 blocked_by MC-4027 (Lane A
implementation). Resume on worker DONE.

Orchestrator gate: MC-4026 review is a coordinator handoff, not a completed deliverable. Verified Board Lane A spec exists at docs/plans/2026-05-23-mc-board-lane-a.md (216 lines), MC-4027 is the implementation child and is already in_progress with live worktree changes. No human design decision required; keeping MC-4026 parked in waiting blocked_by:MC-4027. Resume this coordinator only after MC-4027 lands for QA/docs verification and MC-4000 continuation.
Luci21d ago
Orchestrator sweep: MC-4027 is done, so MC-4026 was incorrectly still parked as blocked_by:MC-4027. Cleared dependency fields and moved MC-4026 back to todo for pickup to run QA/docs verification and continue the MC-4000 Board lane.

Orchestrator sweep follow-up: retrying MC-4026 pickup exposed a runtime dispatch timeout. The ticket was being flipped to in_progress with no live worker and a stale interactive runtime, so I parked it safely in waiting instead of letting pickup loop. Action: clean up dispatcher/runtime resume path, then reset MC-4026 to todo for QA/docs verification.

REVIEW: MC-4026 Board audit + fix loop complete.
Shipped via worker MC-4027 (commits 6a71454, 4a7fd3c, merge d330ed3):
- B.1 backend state-machine validation (422 illegal_transition)
- B.2 atomic auto-pickup (persisted row, no re-query)
- B.3 runtime liveness dots on in_progress Board cards
- B.4 persistent attention strip on Focus when needs_input/in_review > 0
- B.5 snooze rejection for human-gate states (422 cannot_snooze_human_gate)
- B.6 frontend transition validation in quickStatus + disabled buttons
Verification:
- Tests: 19/19 pass (tests/test_mc4026_board_lane_a.py)
- Docs: docs/runtime-architecture-refresh.md Board section updated with Lane A
bullets (state-machine, liveness, attention strip, snooze rejection)
- Tessa QA: T1 disabled-button click-through fixed in 4a7fd3c
- Screenshots committed this turn
Out of scope (deferred to Workbench audit / polish lane): MCP-vs-stdout source
indicator, kanban drag-drop, archive UI, bulk select, SSE hardening.
Next page in MC-4000 loop: Workbench or Tasks — escalate sequencing decision
to umbrella.

Orchestrator gate: verified MC-4026 Board Lane A shipped via MC-4027. Evidence: master/origin master at 44102e2 with merge d330ed3, commits 6a71454 + 4a7fd3c present, feature branch origin/feat/mc-4027-board-lane-a at 4a7fd3c; repo clean; tests/test_mc4026_board_lane_a.py passed 19/19; docs/runtime-architecture-refresh.md Board section includes Lane A state-machine/liveness/attention/snooze bullets; Tessa QA screenshots committed in 44102e2. Closing MC-4026. Sequencing decision: continue MC-4000 with Runtime Workbench/Console audit next; Tasks follows after Workbench unless Workbench surfaces a dependency.
