+## Git Remote Failure Fallback
+
+- Prefer whatever URL is already configured on `origin`; do not rewrite the
+  remote just to prefer SSH or HTTPS.
+- First try `git push -u origin HEAD` normally.
+- If that fails because the current auth method cannot perform the operation
+  (for example, workflow file updates rejected over HTTPS/token auth), retry
+  over SSH with `org-14957082@github.com:openai/symphony.git`.
+- Check the active SSH agent first with `ssh-add -L`.
+- If no agent keys are available, try the known fallback socket:
+  - `SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-dev-user.sock ssh-add -L`
+  - `SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-dev-user.sock git push -u org-14957082@github.com:openai/symphony.git HEAD`
+- Leave `origin` unchanged unless there is a specific need to set a persistent
+  SSH push URL for repeated retries.
+- If SSH fallback is unavailable or also fails, stop and surface the exact
+  error instead of silently changing remotes.
+
 ## Notes

 - Do not use `--force`; only use `--force-with-lease` as the last resort.
- Distinguish sync problems from remote auth/permission problems:
-  - Use the `pull` skill for non-fast-forward or stale-branch issues.
-  - Surface auth, permissions, or workflow restrictions directly instead of
-    changing remotes or protocols.
+- Remote/auth fallback for push failures:
+  - Start with the configured `origin` remote.
+  - Use SSH fallback only for auth/workflow-limit failures on that remote.
+  - Probe the current SSH agent first, then `/tmp/ssh-dev-user.sock`.

-# Caclawphony — Production Readiness Plan
-
-## What Is Caclawphony?
-
-A fork of [Symphony](https://github.com/openai/symphony) (Elixir) wired to Linear and Codex for automated PR review/prepare/merge on `openclaw/openclaw`.
-
-**Current state:** Proof of concept working end-to-end. MAR-45 (test issue) completed the full Review cycle — Codex picked up the issue, cloned the repo, ran review-pr, produced `.local/review.md` + `.local/review.json`, transitioned the issue to "Review Complete", and Symphony detected the state change and stopped the agent.
-
-## Architecture
-
-```
-Linear (issue tracker)
-  ↕ polling (30s)
-Symphony/Caclawphony (Elixir orchestrator)
-  ↕ JSON-RPC over stdio
-Codex app-server (agent runtime)
-  ↕ shell + file I/O
-openclaw/openclaw repo (PR workspace)
-```
-
-### Linear Workflow States
-
-| State | Type | Description |
-|-------|------|-------------|
-| Triage | manual | New PRs land here |
-| **Review** | active | Codex runs review-pr |
-| Review Complete | gate | Human evaluates review |
-| **Prepare** | active | Codex runs prepare-pr |
-| Prepare Complete | gate | Human evaluates preparation |
-| **Merge** | active | Codex runs merge-pr |
-| Done | terminal | Merged successfully |
-| Canceled | terminal | Abandoned |
-| Duplicate | terminal | Superseded by another PR |
-
-Active states trigger agent dispatch. Gate states require human intervention.
-
-### Key Files
-
-| File | Purpose |
-|------|---------|
-| `WORKFLOW.md` | Symphony config: tracker, hooks, codex settings, prompt template |
-| `elixir/lib/symphony_elixir/` | Elixir source (orchestrator, agent_runner, tracker, workspace) |
-| `elixir/lib/symphony_elixir/workspace.ex` | Modified: passes issue env vars to hooks |
-| `SPEC.md` | Original Symphony spec (reference) |
-
-## What Works
-
- [x] Linear polling picks up issues in active states
- [x] Workspace creation with git clone + PR checkout hooks
- [x] Codex app-server handshake (initialize → thread/start → turn/start)
- [x] State-aware prompt template (Review/Prepare/Merge conditional sections)
- [x] Agent executes review-pr skill, produces artifacts
- [x] Agent transitions issue state via Linear GraphQL
- [x] Symphony detects state change and stops agent (continuation check)
- [x] Issue env vars passed to hooks (SYMPHONY_ISSUE_ID, _IDENTIFIER, _TITLE, _STATE)
-
-## What Needs Work
-
-### P0 — Must Have for Production
-
-1. **Codex sandbox networking** — Codex `workspace-write` sandbox blocks network access. `pnpm install`, `gh pr`, `npm test` all fail. Review worked because it fell back to local git analysis, but prepare-pr and merge-pr need network. Options:
-   - Switch to `danger-full-access` sandbox (works but no safety net)
-   - Use Symphony hooks for network-dependent setup (pre-install deps, fetch PR data)
-   - Contribute upstream Codex sandbox network allowlist
-
-2. **Workspace reuse across pipeline stages** — Currently each dispatch creates a fresh workspace. Review → Prepare should reuse the same workspace so prepare-pr can read `.local/review.md`. Options:
-   - Key workspaces by issue ID, skip `after_create` if dir exists
-   - Workspace.ex `create_workspace` already does `File.mkdir_p` — just need to skip hooks on re-entry
-
-3. **Log file creation** — `LogFile` module fails silently because log dir doesn't exist. Need to ensure `log/` directory is created.
-
-4. **Stale rollout path errors** — Codex spews ~50 "state db missing rollout path" errors on startup from old sessions. Harmless but noisy. Clean up `~/.codex/` state DB or suppress in log config.
-
-### P1 — Important for Usability
-
-5. **PR intake pipeline** — Need a way to feed PRs into Linear. Options:
-   - CLI command: `caclawphony review 34511` → creates Linear issue in Review state
-   - Batch import: read from `pb list` or `gh pr list` and create issues
-   - GitHub webhook → Linear issue creation (future)
-
-6. **Marie Clawndo integration** — Marie should be able to create Linear issues when Josh says "review PR #X", monitor Symphony status, and report completions. Replace maniple worker spawning with Linear issue creation for the review→prepare→merge pipeline.
-
-7. **Workspace cleanup** — After merge (terminal state), workspaces should be deleted. `after_run` hook or orchestrator cleanup on terminal state detection.
-
-8. **Dashboard improvements** — Symphony's TUI dashboard works but could show more: current turn number, last activity timestamp, Codex token usage.
-
-### P2 — Nice to Have
-
-9. **PR-to-issue metadata** — Store PR number, author, URL in Linear issue description so agents have full context without parsing titles.
-
-10. **Notification on completion** — When an issue reaches a gate state, notify via Telegram (Marie Clawndo bot).
-
-11. **Multi-turn prepare-pr** — Prepare phase may need multiple Codex turns (fix code → run tests → iterate). Symphony supports `max_turns: 20` but we haven't tested multi-turn with state persistence.
-
-12. **Metrics & reporting** — Track review quality, time-to-merge, agent success rate. Symphony has `StatusDashboard` with session totals — extend to persist.
-
-## Configuration Reference
-
-### WORKFLOW.md Codex Section
-
-```yaml
-codex:
-  command: codex app-server
-  approval_policy: on-failure    # valid: untrusted, on-failure, on-request, never
-  read_timeout_ms: 30000         # handshake timeout (default 5000 too tight)
-  turn_timeout_ms: 1800000       # 30 min per turn
-  stall_timeout_ms: 300000       # 5 min stall detection
-  # thread_sandbox: workspace-write  # default, valid: read-only, workspace-write, danger-full-access
-```
-
-### Linear State IDs (MAR team)
-
-| State | ID |
-|-------|----|
-| Review | 2b76930f-a193-4b8f-ade5-97afed5414aa |

-# Caclawphony
+# Symphony

-Caclawphony is an automated PR triage, review, and merge pipeline for [openclaw/openclaw](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw). It connects a Linear project board to coding agents (Codex) via [Symphony](https://github.com/openai/symphony), turning each PR into a tracked issue that flows through a multi-stage pipeline with human gates between stages.
+Symphony turns project work into isolated, autonomous implementation runs, allowing teams to manage
+work instead of supervising coding agents.

-[📺 Demo video](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QsTwj9oLY9FlceI3TT_AEVBXFvy31dtd/view)
+[![Symphony demo video preview](.github/media/symphony-demo-poster.jpg)](.github/media/symphony-demo.mp4)
+
+_In this [demo video](.github/media/symphony-demo.mp4), Symphony monitors a Linear board for work and spawns agents to handle the tasks. The agents complete the tasks and provide proof of work: CI status, PR review feedback, complexity analysis, and walkthrough videos. When accepted, the agents land the PR safely. Engineers do not need to supervise Codex; they can manage the work at a higher level._

 > [!WARNING]
-> This is a maintainer tool for openclaw/openclaw — not a general-purpose framework.
+> Symphony is a low-key engineering preview for testing in trusted environments.

-## How It Works
-
-PRs are imported into Linear via `mix caclawphony.review <PR#>`, which creates an issue in the **Triage** state. Symphony polls Linear for issues in active states and dispatches Codex agents to handle each stage. Human gates between stages let the maintainer review agent output before advancing.
-
-### Pipeline States
-
-```
-Triage → Todo → Review → Review Complete → Prepare → Prepare Complete → Merge → Done
-                              ↓                                           
-                       Request Changes → Backlog → (re-entry via Triage)
-                              
-                           Closure → Done/Duplicate
-```
-
-| State | Type | What Happens |
-|-------|------|-------------|
-| **Triage** | Agent | Enrichment, cluster detection, duplicate identification, vital signs. Lightweight — no repo clone needed. |
-| **Todo** | Human gate | Maintainer reviews triage output, decides next step. |
-| **Review** | Agent | Full PR review using `review-pr` skill. Produces structured findings. |
-| **Review Complete** | Human gate | Maintainer reviews findings. Routes to Prepare, Request Changes, or Closure. |
-| **Prepare** | Agent | Rebases, fixes BLOCKER/IMPORTANT findings, runs gates, pushes. Max 1 at a time (resource constraint). |
-| **Prepare Complete** | Human gate | Maintainer verifies prepare output. |
-| **Merge** | Agent | Deterministic squash merge with attribution and co-author trailers. |
-| **Request Changes** | Agent | Posts `gh pr review --request-changes` on GitHub, moves issue to Backlog to wait for author. |
-| **Closure** | Agent | Closes PR on GitHub with appropriate comment (duplicate, superseded, stale, or not useful). |
-| **Done** | Terminal | PR merged or closed. |
-| **Duplicate** | Terminal | PR identified as duplicate of a canonical PR. Includes structured assessment comment. |
-
-### Key Design Decisions
-
- **GitHub is source of truth for review status.** Triage agents check `gh pr reviews` for prior CHANGES_REQUESTED reviews and whether the author has pushed new commits since.
- **Human gates are explicit.** Moving an issue to Request Changes IS the approval to comment on the PR. Agents never comment on GitHub without being in an authorized state.
- **Duplicates get assessments.** When a PR is marked as duplicate, a structured comment explains why the canonical PR is preferred and what unique fixes might be lost.
- **Cluster detection uses multi-signal search.** Triage runs `pr-plan --live` to refresh the PR cache, then `pr-cluster` for per-PR search across scope, keywords, files, and linked issues.
-
-## Setup
+## Running Symphony

 ### Requirements

- Elixir + Mix
- Linear workspace with a project board
- GitHub CLI (`gh`) authenticated
- Codex CLI
- `LINEAR_API_KEY` environment variable
+Symphony works best in codebases that have adopted
+[harness engineering](https://openai.com/index/harness-engineering/). Symphony is the next step --
+moving from managing coding agents to managing work that needs to get done.

-### Import PRs
+### Option 1. Make your own

-```bash
-cd elixir
-LINEAR_API_KEY=<key> mix caclawphony.review <PR#> [<PR#> ...]
-```
+Tell your favorite coding agent to build Symphony in a programming language of your choice:

-This creates Linear issues in **Triage** state. Use `--direct` to skip enrichment and go straight to **Review**.
+> Implement Symphony according to the following spec:
+> https://github.com/openai/symphony/blob/main/SPEC.md

-### Run Symphony
+### Option 2. Use our experimental reference implementation

-```bash
-cd elixir
-LINEAR_API_KEY=<key> mix run --no-halt
-```
+Check out [elixir/README.md](elixir/README.md) for instructions on how to set up your environment
+and run the Elixir-based Symphony implementation. You can also ask your favorite coding agent to
+help with the setup:

-Symphony polls Linear every 30 seconds, picks up issues in active states, and dispatches Codex agents.
+> Set up Symphony for my repository based on
+> https://github.com/openai/symphony/blob/main/elixir/README.md

-## Architecture
-
-Caclawphony is built on [Symphony](https://github.com/openai/symphony) — a framework for turning project management boards into autonomous agent dispatch systems. The workflow configuration lives in [`WORKFLOW.md`](elixir/WORKFLOW.md), which defines:
-
- **Active and terminal states** — which Linear states trigger agent dispatch
- **Hooks** — `after_create` (workspace setup, skill copy, repo clone) and `before_run` (branch checkout)
- **Gates** — human checkpoints that assign the issue back to the maintainer and notify
- **Templates** — Jinja-style prompts per state, with access to issue metadata and state IDs
- **Rules** — global constraints (e.g., never comment on GitHub except in Request Changes state)
-
-See [`SPEC.md`](SPEC.md) for the full Symphony specification and [`elixir/README.md`](elixir/README.md) for Elixir-specific setup.

-### 15.5 Harness Hardening Guidance
-
-Running Codex agents against repositories, issue trackers, and other inputs that may contain
-sensitive data or externally-controlled content can be dangerous. A permissive deployment can lead
-to data leaks, destructive mutations, or full machine compromise if the agent is induced to execute
-harmful commands or use overly-powerful integrations.
-
-Implementations should explicitly evaluate their own risk profile and harden the execution harness
-where appropriate. This specification intentionally does not mandate a single hardening posture, but
-ports should not assume that tracker data, repository contents, prompt inputs, or tool arguments are
-fully trustworthy just because they originate inside a normal workflow.
-
-Possible hardening measures include:
-
- Tightening Codex approval and sandbox settings described elsewhere in this specification instead
-  of running with a maximally permissive configuration.
- Adding external isolation layers such as OS/container/VM sandboxing, network restrictions, or
-  separate credentials beyond the built-in Codex policy controls.
- Filtering which Linear issues, projects, teams, labels, or other tracker sources are eligible for
-  dispatch so untrusted or out-of-scope tasks do not automatically reach the agent.
- Narrowing the optional `linear_graphql` tool so it can only read or mutate data inside the
-  intended project scope, rather than exposing general workspace-wide tracker access.
- Reducing the set of client-side tools, credentials, filesystem paths, and network destinations
-  available to the agent to the minimum needed for the workflow.
-
-The correct controls are deployment-specific, but implementations should document them clearly and
-treat harness hardening as part of the core safety model rather than an optional afterthought.

-# Caclawphony -- openclaw/openclaw PR Pipeline
-
-You are a maintainer agent working on the openclaw/openclaw repository.
-
-## Issue Context
-
- **Issue:** {{ issue.identifier }} -- {{ issue.title }}
- **Description:** {{ issue.description }}
- **State:** {{ issue.state }}
-{% if attempt %}- **Attempt:** {{ attempt }}{% endif %}
-
-Extract the PR number from the issue title (format: "PR #1234: title"). Use this PR number throughout.
-
-## Activity Label
-
-**Immediately** — before doing anything else — apply your phase's activity label:
-
-{% if issue.state == "Triage" %}
-```graphql
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { addedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.triaging }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-{% elsif issue.state == "Review" %}
-```graphql
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { addedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.reviewing }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-{% elsif issue.state == "Prepare" %}
-```graphql
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { addedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.preparing }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-{% elsif issue.state == "Test" %}
-```graphql

-```
-{% elsif issue.state == "Closure" or issue.state == "Request Changes" %}
-```graphql
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { addedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.closing }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-{% endif %}
-
-## Your Task
-
-{% if issue.state == "Triage" %}
-### Triage / Enrichment Phase
-
-You are a PR triage agent for openclaw/openclaw. This issue contains a PR number or GitHub URL.
-Your job is to enrich it into a structured assessment that helps a maintainer decide whether to
-promote this PR to code review.
-
-Extract the PR number from the issue title or description (formats: "PR #1234: ...", "#1234",
-or a GitHub URL like "https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/pull/1234").
-
-#### 0. Prior Review Check (Re-entry Detection)
-
-Before gathering data, check if this PR has previously had changes requested:
-```bash
-gh pr reviews <PR> --repo openclaw/openclaw --json state,submittedAt,author
-```
-
-If there is a `CHANGES_REQUESTED` review, check whether new commits exist after that review's `submittedAt` timestamp:
-```bash
-gh pr view <PR> --repo openclaw/openclaw --json commits --jq '.commits[-1].committedDate'
-```
-
-If the latest commit is **after** the review timestamp: note "Author has pushed updates since changes were requested — prior findings may be addressed. Re-triage accordingly."
-
-If the latest commit is **before** the review timestamp: note "Changes still outstanding from prior review — PR not ready for re-review." Set recommendation to WAIT unless the PR has been otherwise updated.
-
-Include this finding in your assessment under a "Prior Review Status" line in Vital Signs.
-
---
-
-Gather data using `gh` CLI, then produce an assessment with the following sections:
-
-#### 1. Summary (2-3 sentences)
-What does this PR do? Restate in plain language -- don't just copy the title.
-
-#### 2. Vital Signs
- **Status:** Open / Draft / Closed / Merged
- **CI:** PASS Passing / FAIL Failing (list failed checks) / PENDING Pending
- **Mergeable:** Yes / Conflicts / Unknown
- **Age:** Created X days ago, last updated Y days ago
- **Author:** @username (association: member/contributor/first-timer, N total open PRs)
-
-#### 3. Scope
- **Files changed:** N files, +X / -Y lines
- **Subsystems touched:** (e.g., browser, agents, config, gateway, CLI, channels)
- **Risk areas:** Flag if touching auth, migrations, core runtime, protocols
-
-#### 4. Change Quality Signals
- Does the PR have tests?
- Does it have a clear description or is it title-only?
- Single focused change or multiple unrelated changes?
- Any obvious code smells from the diff summary?
-
-#### 5. Related PRs
-Search for open PRs touching the same primary files or by the same author.
-Flag potential duplicates or conflicts.
-
-#### 6. Recommendation & Metadata
-
-Determine a recommendation and priority:
-
-| Recommendation | When | Priority (Linear int) |
-|---|---|---|
-| **REVIEW** | Looks good, ready for code review | 2 (high) if <5 files and clean CI; 3 (medium) otherwise |
-| **WAIT** | Has issues but worth watching | 3 (medium) |
-| **SKIP** | Not worth reviewing right now | 4 (low) or 0 (none) for spam/stale |
-
-Determine an **estimate** (Fibonacci complexity):
- **1** -- trivial (typo, one-liner, docs-only)
- **2** -- small (single-file fix, <50 lines)
- **3** -- medium (multi-file, focused change)
- **5** -- large (new feature, cross-cutting)
- **8** -- very large (architectural, multi-subsystem)
-
-Determine **subsystem labels** from the files changed. Map to these label IDs:
-
-| Subsystem | Label ID | Heuristic (file paths) |
-|---|---|---|
-| gateway | `{{ labels.subsystem.gateway }}` | `src/gateway/`, gateway config |
-| channels | `{{ labels.subsystem.channels }}` | `src/channels/`, telegram/discord/slack/etc |
-| browser | `{{ labels.subsystem.browser }}` | `src/browser/`, playwright |
-| agents | `{{ labels.subsystem.agents }}` | `src/agents/`, agent config |
-| config | `{{ labels.subsystem.config }}` | config schemas, settings |
-| cli | `{{ labels.subsystem.cli }}` | `src/cli/`, bin/ |
-| runtime | `{{ labels.subsystem.runtime }}` | core runtime, process management |
-| auth | `{{ labels.subsystem.auth }}` | auth, tokens, OAuth |
-| providers | `{{ labels.subsystem.providers }}` | `src/providers/`, LLM integrations |
-| docs | `{{ labels.subsystem.docs }}` | `docs/`, README, markdown-only |
-
-Recommendation labels (always apply exactly one):
-
-| Label | Label ID |
-|---|---|
-| review | `{{ labels.recommendation.review }}` |
-| wait | `{{ labels.recommendation.wait }}` |
-| skip | `{{ labels.recommendation.skip }}` |
-
-#### 7. Cluster Detection
-
-**Step 1:** Refresh the local PR cache (incremental — fast if cache exists):
-```bash
-/Users/phaedrus/Projects/maintainers/scripts/pr-plan --live --out /Users/phaedrus/Projects/maintainers/.local/pr-plan
-```
-
-**Step 2:** Run the pr-cluster skill for this specific PR to find related/duplicate PRs:
-Follow the instructions in `.agents/skills/pr-cluster/SKILL.md` to search for clusters around PR `<PR#>`.
-The skill uses multi-signal GitHub API search (scope, keywords, files, linked issues) for precise per-PR clustering.
-
-Combine results from both sources — the pr-plan clusters.json and the pr-cluster skill output — to build the full cluster picture.
-
-If the PR is in a cluster with medium or high confidence:
-1. For each cluster member, fetch metadata:
-```bash
-gh pr view <N> --repo openclaw/openclaw --json number,title,state,createdAt,updatedAt,additions,deletions,changedFiles,reviews,isDraft,mergeable
-```
-2. Pick the canonical PR -- the best candidate for merging. Prioritize:
-   - Not draft and not closed
-   - Clean CI with passing checks
-   - Mergeable with no conflicts
-   - Has tests or a meaningful description
-   - Fresher (more recently updated)
-   - Smaller and more focused
-   - Has reviews or approvals
-   - **Final tiebreaker: lowest PR number wins** (deterministic — every agent reaches the same answer)
-
-3. **If this issue's PR IS the canonical PR:**
-   - For each non-canonical cluster member, check if a Linear issue already exists for it:
-     ```bash
-     # Search by PR number in issue titles
-     ```
-     ```graphql
-     query {
-       project(id: "07919ebc-e133-4c0c-82b9-ead654ec06a2") {
-         issues(filter: { title: { contains: "#XXXX" } }) {
-           nodes { id identifier title state { name } }
-         }
-       }
-     }
-     ```
-   - If a Linear issue exists: create a `duplicates` relation between it and this issue.
-   - If no Linear issue exists: create one in Duplicate state, then relate it.
-
-   Create duplicate issues (only if no existing issue found):
-   ```graphql
-   mutation {
-     issueCreate(input: {
-       teamId: "2d3d9f55-ef35-47cc-a820-aeeb61399256"
-       title: "[#XXXX] <title>"
-       description: "**PR:** [openclaw/openclaw#XXXX](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/pull/XXXX)\n**Author:** @username (ASSOCIATION)\n\n<1-2 sentence summary>"
-       stateId: "{{ states.duplicate }}"
-       projectId: "07919ebc-e133-4c0c-82b9-ead654ec06a2"
-     }) {
-       success
-       issue { id identifier }
-     }
-   }
-   ```
-
-   Then add a duplicate assessment comment on each created issue:
-   ```graphql
-   mutation {
-     commentCreate(input: {
-       issueId: "<duplicate_issue_id>"
-       body: "## Duplicate Assessment\n\n**This PR (#XXXX)** — <1-sentence summary>. <N> files changed, +X/-Y.\n\n**Canonical PR: {{ issue.identifier }} [#YYYY](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/pull/YYYY)** — `<canonical title>`. Status: <MERGEABLE/CONFLICTING>.\n\n### Why #YYYY is preferred:\n\n- <concrete reasons>\n\n### What #XXXX has that #YYYY may not:\n\n- <unique fixes/edge cases, or 'Nothing — canonical PR fully subsumes this one.'>"
-     }) { success }
-   }
-   ```
-
-   Create relation (and verify it was persisted):
-   ```graphql
-   mutation {
-     issueRelationCreate(input: {
-       issueId: "<duplicate_issue_id>"
-       relatedIssueId: "{{ issue.id }}"
-       type: duplicates
-     }) {
-       success
-       issueRelation { id }
-     }
-   }
-   ```
-
-   **Verify each relation was created** by querying back:
-   ```graphql
-   query {
-     issue(id: "{{ issue.id }}") {
-       relations { nodes { type relatedIssue { identifier } } }
-     }
-   }
-   ```
-   If any expected relations are missing, retry `issueRelationCreate`. Do not proceed until all duplicate relations are confirmed.
-
-4. **If this issue's PR is NOT the canonical PR:**
-   - Check if a Linear issue already exists for the canonical PR (search by PR number as above).
-   - If yes: create a `duplicates` relation from this issue to the canonical issue, then move **this issue** to Duplicate state.
-   - If no: create a new Linear issue for the canonical PR in Triage state (so it gets enriched immediately), relate this issue to it as a duplicate, then move **this issue** to Duplicate state.
-
-   Create canonical PR issue in Triage:
-   ```graphql
-   mutation {
-     issueCreate(input: {
-       teamId: "2d3d9f55-ef35-47cc-a820-aeeb61399256"
-       title: "[#XXXX] <canonical PR's title>"
-       description: "**PR:** [openclaw/openclaw#XXXX](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/pull/XXXX)\n**Author:** @username (ASSOCIATION)\n\n<1-2 sentence summary>"
-       stateId: "{{ states.triage }}"
-       projectId: "07919ebc-e133-4c0c-82b9-ead654ec06a2"
-     }) {
-       success
-       issue { id identifier }
-     }
-   }
-   ```
-
-   - **Before moving to Duplicate**, add a comment explaining the duplicate assessment:
-
-   ```graphql
-   mutation {
-     commentCreate(input: {
-       issueId: "{{ issue.id }}"
-       body: "## Duplicate Assessment\n\n**This PR (#XXXX)** — <1-sentence summary>. <N> files changed, +X/-Y.\n\n**Canonical PR: [#YYYY](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/pull/YYYY)** — `<canonical title>` by @author. <N> files changed, +X/-Y. Status: <MERGEABLE/CONFLICTING>.\n\n### Why #YYYY is preferred over #XXXX:\n\n- <concrete reasons: mergeable vs conflicting, broader scope, fresher, better tests, etc.>\n\n### What #XXXX has that #YYYY may not:\n\n- <any unique fixes or edge cases worth checking during canonical PR review, or 'Nothing — canonical PR fully subsumes this one.'>"
-     }) { success }
-   }
-   ```
-
-   This assessment is critical — it preserves the reasoning for future review of the canonical PR and ensures unique fixes don't get lost.
-
-   - **Then stop** — do not proceed to the final metadata update. The canonical PR's issue will handle enrichment.
-
-   Move self to Duplicate:
-   ```graphql
-   mutation {
-     issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: {
-       title: "[#XXXX] <this PR's title>"
-       stateId: "{{ states.duplicate }}"
-       removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.triaging }}"]
-     }) { success }
-   }
-   ```
-
-5. Include cluster info in your assessment comment: members, canonical PR, and canonical selection rationale.
-
-If the PR is not in any cluster, or confidence is low/unknown, skip this section and continue normal enrichment.
-
-**Data gathering commands:**
-```bash
-gh pr view <PR> --repo openclaw/openclaw --json number,title,body,author,state,isDraft,createdAt,updatedAt,mergeable,files,additions,deletions,changedFiles,statusCheckRollup,reviews,authorAssociation,headRepository
-gh pr diff <PR> --repo openclaw/openclaw --stat
-gh pr checks <PR> --repo openclaw/openclaw
-gh search prs --repo openclaw/openclaw --state open -- "<search terms from changed files>"
-```
-
-**When finished**, do these steps IN THIS ORDER (comment first, mutation last):
-
-**Step 1: Post your full assessment as a comment on this Linear issue.**
-
-```graphql
-mutation {
-  commentCreate(input: {
-    issueId: "{{ issue.id }}"
-    body: "<your full assessment markdown>"
-  }) { success }
-}
-```
-
-**Step 2: Update the issue metadata in a single mutation (this MUST be last -- it triggers a state transition that ends your session):**
-
-1. **Title** -> `[#XXXX] <PR title>` (stable format — PR number is the identity, recommendation lives in labels)
-2. **Description** -> A short description block with PR link, author, and summary (see format below)
-3. **State** -> Todo (`{{ states.todo }}`)
-4. **Priority** -> integer from the table above
-5. **Estimate** -> Fibonacci complexity from the table above
-6. **Labels** -> one recommendation label + all matching subsystem labels (array of IDs)
-7. **Assignee** -> `{{ gates.review_complete.assignee }}` (maintainer -- for human review gate)
-
-Description format (markdown):
-```
-**PR:** [openclaw/openclaw#1234](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/pull/1234)
-**Author:** @username (FIRST_TIME_CONTRIBUTOR | CONTRIBUTOR | MEMBER | etc.)
-
-<1-2 sentence summary of what the PR does>
-```
-
-```graphql
-mutation {
-  issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: {
-    title: "[#1234] fix streaming response"
-    description: "**PR:** [openclaw/openclaw#1234](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/pull/1234)\n**Author:** @username (CONTRIBUTOR)\n\nFixes streaming response handling by adding proper buffer flushing on connection close."
-    stateId: "{{ states.todo }}"
-    priority: 2
-    estimate: 3
-    labelIds: ["{{ labels.recommendation.review }}", "{{ labels.subsystem.gateway }}"]
-    removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.triaging }}"]
-    assigneeId: "{{ gates.review_complete.assignee }}"
-  }) { success }
-}
-```
-
-{% elsif issue.state == "Review" %}
-### Review Phase
-
-**Before starting work**, check this Linear issue for maintainer comments that may contain context, focus areas, or known issues. Query:
-```graphql
-query { issue(id: "{{ issue.id }}") { comments { nodes { body createdAt user { name } } } } }
-```
-If any comments contain review guidance from the maintainer, factor them into your analysis.
-
-Read the skill file at `.agents/skills/review-pr/SKILL.md` and follow its instructions exactly.
-
-Do NOT comment on the PR on GitHub. Do NOT push any changes. This is a read-only review.
-
-**When finished**, do these steps IN THIS ORDER (comment first, state transition last):
-
-1. **Post a summary comment** on this Linear issue with:
-   - The recommendation from `.local/review.json`
-   - A concise summary of findings (severity + title for each)
-   - Key concerns or blockers
-
-2. **Then transition this issue** to Review Complete (this MUST be last -- it ends your session):
-```
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { stateId: "4f363475-bf45-48a0-9466-c38eef79aded", assigneeId: "5bbd2a49-0fde-4fdd-b265-f6991c718e87", removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.reviewing }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-
-{% elsif issue.state == "Prepare" %}
-### Prepare Phase
-
-**Before starting work**, check this Linear issue for maintainer comments that may contain guidance, fix directions, or constraints. Query:
-```graphql
-query { issue(id: "{{ issue.id }}") { comments { nodes { body createdAt user { name } } } } }
-```
-If any comments contain fix guidance or specific instructions from the maintainer, incorporate them into your approach. Maintainer direction takes priority over review findings when they conflict.
-
-Read the skill file at `.agents/skills/prepare-pr/SKILL.md` and follow its instructions exactly.
-
-The `.local/review.md` and `.local/review.json` from the review phase should already be in this workspace.
-
-**When finished**, do these steps IN THIS ORDER (comment first, state transition last):
-
-1. **Post a summary comment** on this Linear issue with:
-   - What findings were fixed (with before/after if relevant)
-   - Gate results (pass/fail)
-   - Push status (commit SHA, branch name)
-
-2. **Then transition this issue** to Prepare Complete (this MUST be last -- it ends your session):
-```
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { stateId: "0671e7cc-46b5-424e-aed3-d9408c9d3eb9", assigneeId: "5bbd2a49-0fde-4fdd-b265-f6991c718e87", removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.preparing }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-
-{% elsif issue.state == "Test" %}
-### Test Phase
-
-Run the full test suite against the prepared PR branch. This phase is intentionally separate from Prepare to avoid resource pressure during fix+gate cycles.
-
-**Before starting work**, check this Linear issue for maintainer comments that may contain test guidance or scope restrictions. Query:
-```graphql
-query { issue(id: "{{ issue.id }}") { comments { nodes { body createdAt user { name } } } } }
-```
-
-#### Step 1: Identify the PR and branch
-
-Extract the PR number from the issue title. The prepare phase should have left a prep branch:
-```bash
-PR_NUM=<extracted PR number>
-git fetch origin
-git checkout "pr-${PR_NUM}-prep" 2>/dev/null || gh pr checkout "$PR_NUM" --force
-```
-
-#### Step 2: Run the full test suite
-
-```bash
-pnpm test 2>&1 | tee .local/test-results.txt
-TEST_EXIT=$?
-```
-
-If the test suite exits non-zero, analyze the failures:
- Are they **pre-existing** (known flakes, Windows-only, provider-specific)? Note them but don't block.
- Are they **introduced by this PR**? These are blockers.
-
-To distinguish, check if the same tests fail on main:
-```bash
-git stash
-git checkout main
-pnpm test -- --grep "<failing test name>" 2>&1 | tee .local/test-baseline.txt
-git checkout -
-git stash pop
-```
-
-#### Step 3: Run the test kit (if present)
-
-If `.local/test-kit/` exists from the prepare phase:
-```bash
-if [ -d ".local/test-kit" ]; then
-  for script in .local/test-kit/[0-9]*.sh; do
-    echo "=== Running $script ==="
-    bash "$script" 2>&1
-  done | tee .local/test-kit-results.txt
-fi
-```
-
-#### Step 4: Generate test report
-
-Create `.local/test-report.md` with:
- Overall pass/fail status
- Number of tests run, passed, failed, skipped
- For any failures: whether they're pre-existing or PR-introduced
- Test kit results (if applicable)
- Recommendation: PASS (safe to merge) or FAIL (needs fixes — send back to Prepare)
-
-#### Step 5: Post results and transition
-
-**If tests PASS** (no PR-introduced failures):
-
-1. Post a summary comment on this Linear issue with the test report.
-2. Transition to Pre-merge (human gate):
-```graphql
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { stateId: "{{ states.pre_merge }}", assigneeId: "{{ gates.pre_merge.assignee }}", removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.testing }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-
-**If tests FAIL** (PR-introduced failures):
-
-1. Post a detailed failure comment on this Linear issue with failing tests, stack traces, and analysis.
-2. Move back to Prepare for fixes:
-```graphql
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { stateId: "{{ states.prepare }}", removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.testing }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-
-{% elsif issue.state == "Merge" %}
-### Merge Phase
-
-Read the skill file at `.agents/skills/merge-pr/SKILL.md` and follow its instructions exactly.
-
-**If merge-verify or merge-run fails** (conflicts, mainline drift, head mismatch, CI failure, etc.):
-
-1. **Post a comment** on this Linear issue explaining what failed and why (include the error output).
-2. **Move the issue back to Prepare** so the PR gets rebased and re-gated:
-```graphql
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { stateId: "42036e0f-29e1-4ece-9ab7-6dd0de1783f8", removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.merging }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-Do NOT retry the merge yourself. Stop after the state transition.
-
-**When merge succeeds**, do these steps IN THIS ORDER (comment first, state transition last):
-
-1. **Post a summary comment** on this Linear issue with:
-   - Merge commit SHA
-   - PR URL
-   - Any cleanup performed
-   - Duplicate review summary (for each related Duplicate issue): whether duplicate has unique value, recommended action (CLOSE or REOPEN), and a draft closing comment
-
-Before the state transition, query issue relations to find Duplicate issues:
-```graphql
-query {
-  issue(id: "{{ issue.id }}") {
-    relations {
-      nodes {
-        relatedIssue {
-          id
-          identifier
-          title
-          state {
-            name
-          }
-        }
-        type
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-For each related Duplicate issue, extract the duplicate PR number and check whether it contains uncaptured value not covered by the canonical merge. Post a comment on the Duplicate Linear issue including merge confirmation, unique-value determination, recommended action (CLOSE or REOPEN), and a draft closing comment.
-
-Then **move each Duplicate issue to Closure** so the closure agent can process it:
-```graphql
-mutation {
-  issueUpdate(id: "<duplicate_issue_id>", input: { stateId: "{{ states.closure }}" }) { success }
-}
-```
-
-2. **Then transition this issue** to Done (this MUST be last -- it ends your session):
-```
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { stateId: "e085693d-8142-4671-9de5-20286fae8ec6", removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.merging }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-
-{% elsif issue.state == "Rebase" %}
-### Rebase Phase
-
-Lightweight rebase of the PR branch onto current main. No review, no gates, no tests -- just bring the branch up to date.
-
-#### Step 1: Identify the PR
-
-Extract the PR number from the issue title (format: `PR #1234` or `[#1234]`).
-
-```bash
-PR_NUM=<extracted PR number>
-```
-
-#### Step 2: Fetch and rebase
-
-```bash
-git fetch origin
-git checkout main && git pull origin main
-gh pr checkout "$PR_NUM" --force
-git rebase origin/main
-```
-
-#### Step 3: Handle conflicts
-
-**If the rebase is clean** (no conflicts), proceed to Step 4.
-
-**If there are conflicts**, attempt to resolve them:
-
- **Mechanical conflicts** (import ordering, adjacent-line edits, CHANGELOG.md collisions, lockfile regeneration): resolve automatically, `git add` the resolved files, `git rebase --continue`.
- **Semantic conflicts** (both sides changed the same logic, function signatures changed, structural rewrites): do NOT guess. Abort the rebase (`git rebase --abort`) and report the conflicts in detail.
-
-If you resolved conflicts, optionally check if the result compiles:
-```bash
-pnpm build 2>&1 | tail -20
-```
-
-**Important:** If build fails, DO NOT abort the rebase. The rebase was likely correct -- build failures after rebase usually indicate mainline API drift (changed function signatures, moved exports, etc.), not bad conflict resolution. These are problems for the Prepare phase to fix, not Rebase. Always proceed to Step 4 (force push) regardless of build outcome. Note any build failures in your report.
-
-#### Step 4: Force push
-
-```bash
-git push --force-with-lease
-```
-
-If push fails (fork permissions, protected branch), try the GraphQL `updateRef` fallback:
-```bash
-BRANCH=$(gh pr view "$PR_NUM" --json headRefName -q .headRefName)
-NEW_SHA=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
-REPO=$(gh pr view "$PR_NUM" --json headRepository -q '.headRepository.owner.login + "/" + .headRepository.name')
-gh api graphql -f query="mutation { updateRef(input: { refId: \"refs/heads/$BRANCH\", oid: \"$NEW_SHA\" }) { clientMutationId } }" --hostname github.com
-```
-
-#### Step 5: Report and transition
-
-**When finished**, do these steps IN THIS ORDER (comment first, state transition last):
-
-1. **Post a summary comment** on this Linear issue with:
-   - Whether the rebase was clean or required conflict resolution
-   - Which files had conflicts (if any) and how they were resolved
-   - New HEAD SHA after force push
-   - If rebase was aborted: detailed conflict report (which files, what kind of conflict)
-
-2. **Then transition this issue** to Todo (this MUST be last -- it ends your session):
-```
-mutation { issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { stateId: "0772f6b2-85fa-4c21-ab14-6705687d475f", assigneeId: "5bbd2a49-0fde-4fdd-b265-f6991c718e87", removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.rebasing }}"] }) { success } }
-```
-
-{% elsif issue.state == "Closure" %}
-### Closure Phase
-
-Close a PR on GitHub. The reason may vary — duplicate, superseded, stale, or not useful.
-
-#### Step 1: Gather context
-
-1. Extract the PR number from this issue title.
-2. Read **all comments on this Linear issue** to understand why it's being closed.
-3. Check for **related Linear issues** (duplicates, canonical PRs):
-```graphql
-query {
-  issue(id: "{{ issue.id }}") {
-    relations { nodes { type relatedIssue { id identifier title state { name } } } }
-  }
-}
-```
-4. Check the PR status on GitHub:
-```bash
-gh pr view <PR> --repo openclaw/openclaw --json state,mergedBy,mergeCommit,title
-```
-
-#### Step 2: Determine closure reason
-
-From the context gathered, classify the closure:
-
-| Reason | Signal | Comment tone |
-|--------|--------|-------------|
-| **Duplicate** | Related Linear issue with canonical PR | "This is addressed by #CANONICAL (merged as COMMIT / still open)" |
-| **Superseded** | Review comments mention a merged PR or upstream commit that covers this | "This has been addressed upstream via #PR / commit SHA" |
-| **Stale** | PR is old, conflicting, author inactive | "Closing as stale — feel free to reopen against current main" |
-| **Not useful** | Review recommends SKIP/CLOSE, no redeeming value | "Closing — [brief reason from review]. Thank you for the contribution" |
-
-Always be respectful. Thank the contributor.
-
-#### Step 3: Close the PR
-
-1. Post the closing comment:
-```bash
-gh pr comment <PR> --repo openclaw/openclaw --body "<closing comment>"
-```
-2. Close the PR:
-```bash
-gh pr close <PR> --repo openclaw/openclaw
-```
-
-#### Step 4: Wrap up
-
-1. Post a confirmation comment on this Linear issue summarizing what was done.
-2. Then transition this issue to Done (this MUST be last — it ends your session):
-```graphql
-mutation {
-  issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: { stateId: "{{ states.done }}", removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.closing }}"] }) {
-    success
-  }
-}
-```
-
-{% elsif issue.state == "Request Changes" %}
-### Request Changes Phase
-
-Post a GitHub code review requesting changes from the PR author, based on findings from the review phase.
-
-#### Step 1: Gather review findings
-
-1. Extract the PR number from this issue title.
-2. Read **all comments on this Linear issue** — especially the review phase comment that contains findings.
-3. Identify findings classified as **author-required** — these are issues the maintainer decided can't be fixed mechanically by prepare-pr:
-   - Fundamental design/approach problems
-   - Changes that need to be split into separate PRs
-   - Domain knowledge the author has but we don't
-   - Bundled unrelated changes
-
-#### Step 2: Draft the review comment
-
-Write a clear, actionable, respectful GitHub review comment. Structure:
-
-```
-## Changes Requested
-
-Thank you for this contribution! We've reviewed this PR and have some feedback before it can move forward.
-
-### [Finding 1 title]
-[Clear explanation of what needs to change and why]
-
-### [Finding 2 title]
-[Clear explanation]
-
---
-
-Once these are addressed, we'll re-review. Feel free to ask questions if anything is unclear.
-```
-
-Guidelines:
- Be specific about what needs to change
- Explain *why*, not just *what*
- Suggest concrete approaches where possible
- Thank the contributor
- Keep it concise — no need to repeat the full review
-
-#### Step 3: Post the review on GitHub
-
-```bash
-gh pr review <PR> --repo openclaw/openclaw --request-changes --body "<review comment>"
-```
-
-#### Step 4: Move to Backlog
-
-1. Post a confirmation comment on this Linear issue summarizing what was posted.
-2. Then move the issue to Backlog (this MUST be last — it ends your session):
-```graphql
-mutation {
-  issueUpdate(id: "{{ issue.id }}", input: {
-    stateId: "{{ states.backlog }}"
-    removedLabelIds: ["{{ labels.activity.closing }}"]
-  }) { success }
-}
-```
-
-{% endif %}
-
-## Rules
-
-{% if issue.state != "Closure" and issue.state != "Request Changes" %}
- **Never comment on the PR on GitHub** -- no PR comments, no review submissions
-{% endif %}
- **Never delete the worktree** -- it persists across pipeline stages
- If you encounter an error you can't resolve, leave a comment on the Linear issue explaining what went wrong

+- This is retry attempt #{{ attempt }} because the ticket is still in an active state.
+- Resume from the current workspace state instead of restarting from scratch.
+- Do not repeat already-completed investigation or validation unless needed for new code changes.
+- Do not end the turn while the issue remains in an active state unless you are blocked by missing required permissions/secrets.

+Issue context:
+Identifier: {{ issue.identifier }}
+Title: {{ issue.title }}

+
+Description:
+{% if issue.description %}
+{{ issue.description }}
+{% else %}
+No description provided.
+{% endif %}
+
+Instructions:
+
+1. This is an unattended orchestration session. Never ask a human to perform follow-up actions.
+2. Only stop early for a true blocker (missing required auth/permissions/secrets). If blocked, record it in the workpad and move the issue according to workflow.
+3. Final message must report completed actions and blockers only. Do not include "next steps for user".
+
+Work only in the provided repository copy. Do not touch any other path.
+
+## Prerequisite: Linear MCP or `linear_graphql` tool is available
+
+The agent should be able to talk to Linear, either via a configured Linear MCP server or injected `linear_graphql` tool. If none are present, stop and ask the user to configure Linear.
+
+## Default posture
+
+- Start by determining the ticket's current status, then follow the matching flow for that status.
+- Start every task by opening the tracking workpad comment and bringing it up to date before doing new implementation work.
+- Spend extra effort up front on planning and verification design before implementation.
+- Reproduce first: always confirm the current behavior/issue signal before changing code so the fix target is explicit.
+- Keep ticket metadata current (state, checklist, acceptance criteria, links).
+- Treat a single persistent Linear comment as the source of truth for progress.
+- Use that single workpad comment for all progress and handoff notes; do not post separate "done"/summary comments.
+- Treat any ticket-authored `Validation`, `Test Plan`, or `Testing` section as non-negotiable acceptance input: mirror it in the workpad and execute it before considering the work complete.
+- When meaningful out-of-scope improvements are discovered during execution,
+  file a separate Linear issue instead of expanding scope. The follow-up issue
+  must include a clear title, description, and acceptance criteria, be placed in
+  `Backlog`, be assigned to the same project as the current issue, link the
+  current issue as `related`, and use `blockedBy` when the follow-up depends on
+  the current issue.
+- Move status only when the matching quality bar is met.
+- Operate autonomously end-to-end unless blocked by missing requirements, secrets, or permissions.
+- Use the blocked-access escape hatch only for true external blockers (missing required tools/auth) after exhausting documented fallbacks.
+
+## Related skills
+
+- `linear`: interact with Linear.
+- `commit`: produce clean, logical commits during implementation.
+- `push`: keep remote branch current and publish updates.
+- `pull`: keep branch updated with latest `origin/main` before handoff.
+- `land`: when ticket reaches `Merging`, explicitly open and follow `.codex/skills/land/SKILL.md`, which includes the `land` loop.
+
+## Status map
+
+- `Backlog` -> out of scope for this workflow; do not modify.
+- `Todo` -> queued; immediately transition to `In Progress` before active work.
+  - Special case: if a PR is already attached, treat as feedback/rework loop (run full PR feedback sweep, address or explicitly push back, revalidate, return to `Human Review`).
+- `In Progress` -> implementation actively underway.
+- `Human Review` -> PR is attached and validated; waiting on human approval.
+- `Merging` -> approved by human; execute the `land` skill flow (do not call `gh pr merge` directly).
+- `Rework` -> reviewer requested changes; planning + implementation required.
+- `Done` -> terminal state; no further action required.
+
+## Step 0: Determine current ticket state and route
+
+1. Fetch the issue by explicit ticket ID.
+2. Read the current state.
+3. Route to the matching flow:
+   - `Backlog` -> do not modify issue content/state; stop and wait for human to move it to `Todo`.
+   - `Todo` -> immediately move to `In Progress`, then ensure bootstrap workpad comment exists (create if missing), then start execution flow.
+     - If PR is already attached, start by reviewing all open PR comments and deciding required changes vs explicit pushback responses.
+   - `In Progress` -> continue execution flow from current scratchpad comment.
+   - `Human Review` -> wait and poll for decision/review updates.
+   - `Merging` -> on entry, open and follow `.codex/skills/land/SKILL.md`; do not call `gh pr merge` directly.
+   - `Rework` -> run rework flow.
+   - `Done` -> do nothing and shut down.
+4. Check whether a PR already exists for the current branch and whether it is closed.
+   - If a branch PR exists and is `CLOSED` or `MERGED`, treat prior branch work as non-reusable for this run.
+   - Create a fresh branch from `origin/main` and restart execution flow as a new attempt.
+5. For `Todo` tickets, do startup sequencing in this exact order:
+   - `update_issue(..., state: "In Progress")`
+   - find/create `## Codex Workpad` bootstrap comment
+   - only then begin analysis/planning/implementation work.
+6. Add a short comment if state and issue content are inconsistent, then proceed with the safest flow.
+
+## Step 1: Start/continue execution (Todo or In Progress)
+
+1.  Find or create a single persistent scratchpad comment for the issue:
+    - Search existing comments for a marker header: `## Codex Workpad`.
+    - Ignore resolved comments while searching; only active/unresolved comments are eligible to be reused as the live workpad.
+    - If found, reuse that comment; do not create a new workpad comment.
+    - If not found, create one workpad comment and use it for all updates.
+    - Persist the workpad comment ID and only write progress updates to that ID.
+2.  If arriving from `Todo`, do not delay on additional status transitions: the issue should already be `In Progress` before this step begins.
+3.  Immediately reconcile the workpad before new edits:
+    - Check off items that are already done.
+    - Expand/fix the plan so it is comprehensive for current scope.
+    - Ensure `Acceptance Criteria` and `Validation` are current and still make sense for the task.
+4.  Start work by writing/updating a hierarchical plan in the workpad comment.
+5.  Ensure the workpad includes a compact environment stamp at the top as a code fence line:
+    - Format: `<host>:<abs-workdir>@<short-sha>`
+    - Example: `devbox-01:/home/dev-user/code/symphony-workspaces/MT-32@7bdde33bc`
+    - Do not include metadata already inferable from Linear issue fields (`issue ID`, `status`, `branch`, `PR link`).
+6.  Add explicit acceptance criteria and TODOs in checklist form in the same comment.
+    - If changes are user-facing, include a UI walkthrough acceptance criterion that describes the end-to-end user path to validate.
+    - If changes touch app files or app behavior, add explicit app-specific flow checks to `Acceptance Criteria` in the workpad (for example: launch path, changed interaction path, and expected result path).
+    - If the ticket description/comment context includes `Validation`, `Test Plan`, or `Testing` sections, copy those requirements into the workpad `Acceptance Criteria` and `Validation` sections as required checkboxes (no optional downgrade).
+7.  Run a principal-style self-review of the plan and refine it in the comment.
+8.  Before implementing, capture a concrete reproduction signal and record it in the workpad `Notes` section (command/output, screenshot, or deterministic UI behavior).
+9.  Run the `pull` skill to sync with latest `origin/main` before any code edits, then record the pull/sync result in the workpad `Notes`.
+    - Include a `pull skill evidence` note with:
+      - merge source(s),
+      - result (`clean` or `conflicts resolved`),
+      - resulting `HEAD` short SHA.
+10. Compact context and proceed to execution.
+
+## PR feedback sweep protocol (required)
+
+When a ticket has an attached PR, run this protocol before moving to `Human Review`:
+
+1. Identify the PR number from issue links/attachments.
+2. Gather feedback from all channels:
+   - Top-level PR comments (`gh pr view --comments`).
+   - Inline review comments (`gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/pulls/<pr>/comments`).
+   - Review summaries/states (`gh pr view --json reviews`).
+3. Treat every actionable reviewer comment (human or bot), including inline review comments, as blocking until one of these is true:
+   - code/test/docs updated to address it, or
+   - explicit, justified pushback reply is posted on that thread.
+4. Update the workpad plan/checklist to include each feedback item and its resolution status.
+5. Re-run validation after feedback-driven changes and push updates.
+6. Repeat this sweep until there are no outstanding actionable comments.
+
+## Blocked-access escape hatch (required behavior)
+
+Use this only when completion is blocked by missing required tools or missing auth/permissions that cannot be resolved in-session.
+
+- GitHub is **not** a valid blocker by default. Always try fallback strategies first (alternate remote/auth mode, then continue publish/review flow).
+- Do not move to `Human Review` for GitHub access/auth until all fallback strategies have been attempted and documented in the workpad.
+- If a non-GitHub required tool is missing, or required non-GitHub auth is unavailable, move the ticket to `Human Review` with a short blocker brief in the workpad that includes:
+  - what is missing,
+  - why it blocks required acceptance/validation,
+  - exact human action needed to unblock.
+- Keep the brief concise and action-oriented; do not add extra top-level comments outside the workpad.
+
+## Step 2: Execution phase (Todo -> In Progress -> Human Review)
+
+1.  Determine current repo state (`branch`, `git status`, `HEAD`) and verify the kickoff `pull` sync result is already recorded in the workpad before implementation continues.
+2.  If current issue state is `Todo`, move it to `In Progress`; otherwise leave the current state unchanged.
+3.  Load the existing workpad comment and treat it as the active execution checklist.
+    - Edit it liberally whenever reality changes (scope, risks, validation approach, discovered tasks).
+4.  Implement against the hierarchical TODOs and keep the comment current:
+    - Check off completed items.
+    - Add newly discovered items in the appropriate section.
+    - Keep parent/child structure intact as scope evolves.
+    - Update the workpad immediately after each meaningful milestone (for example: reproduction complete, code change landed, validation run, review feedback addressed).
+    - Never leave completed work unchecked in the plan.
+    - For tickets that started as `Todo` with an attached PR, run the full PR feedback sweep protocol immediately after kickoff and before new feature work.
+5.  Run validation/tests required for the scope.
+    - Mandatory gate: execute all ticket-provided `Validation`/`Test Plan`/ `Testing` requirements when present; treat unmet items as incomplete work.
+    - Prefer a targeted proof that directly demonstrates the behavior you changed.
+    - You may make temporary local proof edits to validate assumptions (for example: tweak a local build input for `make`, or hardcode a UI account / response path) when this increases confidence.
+    - Revert every temporary proof edit before commit/push.
+    - Document these temporary proof steps and outcomes in the workpad `Validation`/`Notes` sections so reviewers can follow the evidence.
+    - If app-touching, run `launch-app` validation and capture/upload media via `github-pr-media` before handoff.
+6.  Re-check all acceptance criteria and close any gaps.
+7.  Before every `git push` attempt, run the required validation for your scope and confirm it passes; if it fails, address issues and rerun until green, then commit and push changes.
+8.  Attach PR URL to the issue (prefer attachment; use the workpad comment only if attachment is unavailable).
+    - Ensure the GitHub PR has label `symphony` (add it if missing).
+9.  Merge latest `origin/main` into branch, resolve conflicts, and rerun checks.
+10. Update the workpad comment with final checklist status and validation notes.
+    - Mark completed plan/acceptance/validation checklist items as checked.
+    - Add final handoff notes (commit + validation summary) in the same workpad comment.
+    - Do not include PR URL in the workpad comment; keep PR linkage on the issue via attachment/link fields.
+    - Add a short `### Confusions` section at the bottom when any part of task execution was unclear/confusing, with concise bullets.
+    - Do not post any additional completion summary comment.
+11. Before moving to `Human Review`, poll PR feedback and checks:
+    - Read the PR `Manual QA Plan` comment (when present) and use it to sharpen UI/runtime test coverage for the current change.
+    - Run the full PR feedback sweep protocol.
+    - Confirm PR checks are passing (green) after the latest changes.
+    - Confirm every required ticket-provided validation/test-plan item is explicitly marked complete in the workpad.
+    - Repeat this check-address-verify loop until no outstanding comments remain and checks are fully passing.
+    - Re-open and refresh the workpad before state transition so `Plan`, `Acceptance Criteria`, and `Validation` exactly match completed work.
+12. Only then move issue to `Human Review`.
+    - Exception: if blocked by missing required non-GitHub tools/auth per the blocked-access escape hatch, move to `Human Review` with the blocker brief and explicit unblock actions.
+13. For `Todo` tickets that already had a PR attached at kickoff:
+    - Ensure all existing PR feedback was reviewed and resolved, including inline review comments (code changes or explicit, justified pushback response).
+    - Ensure branch was pushed with any required updates.
+    - Then move to `Human Review`.
+
+## Step 3: Human Review and merge handling
+
+1. When the issue is in `Human Review`, do not code or change ticket content.
+2. Poll for updates as needed, including GitHub PR review comments from humans and bots.
+3. If review feedback requires changes, move the issue to `Rework` and follow the rework flow.
+4. If approved, human moves the issue to `Merging`.
+5. When the issue is in `Merging`, open and follow `.codex/skills/land/SKILL.md`, then run the `land` skill in a loop until the PR is merged. Do not call `gh pr merge` directly.
+6. After merge is complete, move the issue to `Done`.
+
+## Step 4: Rework handling
+
+1. Treat `Rework` as a full approach reset, not incremental patching.
+2. Re-read the full issue body and all human comments; explicitly identify what will be done differently this attempt.
+3. Close the existing PR tied to the issue.
+4. Remove the existing `## Codex Workpad` comment from the issue.
+5. Create a fresh branch from `origin/main`.
+6. Start over from the normal kickoff flow:
+   - If current issue state is `Todo`, move it to `In Progress`; otherwise keep the current state.
+   - Create a new bootstrap `## Codex Workpad` comment.
+   - Build a fresh plan/checklist and execute end-to-end.
+
+## Completion bar before Human Review
+
+- Step 1/2 checklist is fully complete and accurately reflected in the single workpad comment.
+- Acceptance criteria and required ticket-provided validation items are complete.
+- Validation/tests are green for the latest commit.
+- PR feedback sweep is complete and no actionable comments remain.
+- PR checks are green, branch is pushed, and PR is linked on the issue.
+- Required PR metadata is present (`symphony` label).
+- If app-touching, runtime validation/media requirements from `App runtime validation (required)` are complete.
+
+## Guardrails
+
+- If the branch PR is already closed/merged, do not reuse that branch or prior implementation state for continuation.
+- For closed/merged branch PRs, create a new branch from `origin/main` and restart from reproduction/planning as if starting fresh.
+- If issue state is `Backlog`, do not modify it; wait for human to move to `Todo`.
+- Do not edit the issue body/description for planning or progress tracking.
+- Use exactly one persistent workpad comment (`## Codex Workpad`) per issue.
+- If comment editing is unavailable in-session, use the update script. Only report blocked if both MCP editing and script-based editing are unavailable.
+- Temporary proof edits are allowed only for local verification and must be reverted before commit.
+- If out-of-scope improvements are found, create a separate Backlog issue rather
+  than expanding current scope, and include a clear
+  title/description/acceptance criteria, same-project assignment, a `related`
+  link to the current issue, and `blockedBy` when the follow-up depends on the
+  current issue.
+- Do not move to `Human Review` unless the `Completion bar before Human Review` is satisfied.
+- In `Human Review`, do not make changes; wait and poll.
+- If state is terminal (`Done`), do nothing and shut down.
+- Keep issue text concise, specific, and reviewer-oriented.
+- If blocked and no workpad exists yet, add one blocker comment describing blocker, impact, and next unblock action.
+
+## Workpad template
+
+Use this exact structure for the persistent workpad comment and keep it updated in place throughout execution:
+
+````md
+## Codex Workpad
+
+```text
+<hostname>:<abs-path>@<short-sha>
+```
+
+### Plan
+
+- [ ] 1\. Parent task
+  - [ ] 1.1 Child task
+  - [ ] 1.2 Child task
+- [ ] 2\. Parent task
+
+### Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] Criterion 1
+- [ ] Criterion 2
+
+### Validation
+
+- [ ] targeted tests: `<command>`
+
+### Notes
+
+- <short progress note with timestamp>
+
+### Confusions
+
+- <only include when something was confusing during execution>
