Restore archived tasks, fix dashboard scroll-reset, bind ornith, add Playwright smoke test

- **Restore 82 completed tasks** from tasks/complete/ back to tasks/ top
  level (all <7 days old per the cleanup policy; premature bulk archive
  was fixed).
- **Dashboard: fix scroll-reset on auto-refresh** — renderBoard rebuilds
  the board via innerHTML every 2s, destroying each column-body's
  scrollTop. Now snapshots column-body scrollTop + board.scrollLeft +
  view.scrollTop before rebuild and restores after (matched by
  PHASE_GROUPS index).
- **Dashboard UI additions** (pre-existing unstaged work): approval
  section cards, transition buttons, inline artifact editor (textarea for
  writing missing SPEC/VERDICT/etc from the detail modal).
- **Bind ornith as Implement model** — config.md: Model explicit to
  omlx/Ornith-1.0-35B-4bit-mlx, context window 32768. Interactive
  autopilot already used ornith via opencode default; now explicit.
- **Fix cleanup stub** — automaton-cleanup.sh had a stale --project arg
  pointing at a pytest temp dir (test isolation leak). Rewired to point
  at ~/.automaton.
- **Fix plist-isolation test** — test asserted host plist doesn't exist,
  but a real install creates it. Now snapshots mtime before run, asserts
  unchanged after (only a write during the test counts as bleed).
- **New Playwright smoke test** (tests/test_dashboard_ui.py) — 2 tests:
  board renders tasks, column scroll survives auto-refresh tick.
  Verified the test fails without the scroll fix (scrollTop resets to 0).
  Skipped via importorskip when playwright is absent (main CI stays
  green).
- **Clarify SI loop scope in README** — new-project onboarding section
  documents the framework-scoped self-improvement loop and options
  (leave/pause/create project loop).
- **CHANGELOG** documents all changes including the known model-divergence
  gap (mde tasks marked complete but per-role model binding was never
  implemented).

+# VERDICT: Dashboard Phase Grouping
+
+## Summary
+The dashboard has been modified to group the 12 Kanban columns into 5 logical phase groups. The header now shows the project name instead of the scope indicator. Cards display sub-labels with their specific state.
+
+## Changes Made
+
+### 1. Phase Grouping (dashboard.js)
+- Defined 5 phase groups: Planning, Design, Implementation, Verification, Resolution
+- Board now renders grouped columns instead of 12 individual columns
+- Empty groups are hidden (only groups with tasks are shown)
+- Group column headers show the group name and count with colored indicators
+
+### 2. Card Sub-labels (dashboard.js)
+- Each card now displays a sub-label with the specific state (e.g., "🔬 Research", "🐛 Bug Find")
+- State icons are defined in STATE_ICONS mapping
+
+### 3. Header Change (dashboard.js + app.py)
+- Added /api/project-name endpoint that reads from .automaton/project-name.md, README.md, or falls back to directory name
+- Header now shows project name (📂 Automaton) instead of scope indicator (🏗 Framework / 📁 Project)
+
+### 4. Stats View (dashboard.js)
+- Stats view now shows both phase group breakdown and individual state breakdown
+- Phase group bars are color-coded with group colors
+
+### 5. Timeline View (dashboard.js)
+- Timeline now shows 5 phase group indicators instead of 12 individual states
+- Legend shows phase group colors
+
+### 6. Detail Panel (dashboard.js)
+- Detail panel now shows phase group badge next to status
+
+### 7. CSS Updates (styles.css)
+- Added column-header data-color styles for phase groups
+- Added task-card-sublabel style
+- Added detail-phase-badge style
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- ✅ Board renders 5 grouped columns instead of 12 individual columns
+- ✅ Cards in a column display a sub-label with their specific state
+- ✅ Empty columns are hidden (no empty groups shown)
+- ✅ Column headers show the group name and total count
+- ✅ Column headers show a colored indicator bar for each group
+- ✅ Grouped columns are sortable by total count (same as current board behavior)
+- ✅ Clicking a card still opens the detail panel with the same information
+- ✅ Filter bar still works with the grouped view (filter by specific state)
+- ✅ Statistics view shows group-level breakdowns in addition to individual states
+- ✅ Timeline view shows grouped phases instead of 12 individual states
+- ✅ Header shows the project name instead of scope indicator
+- ✅ Scope label no longer shows "🏗 Framework" or "📁 Project"
