Lap Tran bc7daf8590 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).

Implementation: Harden Dashboard Security and Fix Scripts

Summary

Closed security holes in the dashboard static file serving and tightened task name validation. Fixed update.sh to warn about uncommitted changes. Replaced placeholder URLs with the real Gitea repository URL. Added artifact integrity guidance.

Files Changed

  • automaton/dashboard/ui/app.py
    • Replaced string-prefix path traversal check with robust Path.relative_to() resolution.
    • Tightened task name validation to allow only [A-Za-z0-9_-]+.
    • Added import re.
  • tests/test_app.py — added symlink path-traversal test and static-file happy-path test.
  • scripts/update.sh — added uncommitted-changes check before git pull.
  • README.md — replaced placeholder install URL with http://10.37.0.86:3003/hermes/automaton.
  • scripts/install.sh — replaced placeholder clone URL with http://10.37.0.86:3003/hermes/automaton.
  • .rules.md — added "Artifact Integrity" section with atomic-write guidance.

Verification

  • python -m pytest tests/ passes: 72 tests passed.
  • bash -n scripts/update.sh passes.
  • bash -n scripts/install.sh passes.

Decisions

  • Task names are restricted to kebab-case/alphanumeric to prevent filesystem traversal.
  • Symlinks escaping html_dir are rejected with 403.
