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).

SPEC: Harden Dashboard Security and Fix Scripts

Goal

Close obvious security holes in the dashboard and fix script/documentation bugs identified in the audit.

Requirements

  1. Fix path-traversal guard in automaton/dashboard/ui/app.py:
    • Replace string-prefix check with Path.relative_to resolution.
  2. Tighten task name validation in the review API.
  3. Add uncommitted-changes warning to scripts/update.sh before running git pull.
  4. Replace the placeholder repository URL in README.md and scripts/install.sh with http://10.37.0.86:3003/hermes/automaton.
  5. Add guidance on atomic artifact writes to references/stop-hook-pattern.md or .rules.md.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Path-traversal check uses robust Path comparison.
  • Tests include path-traversal attempts.
  • update.sh aborts or warns when local uncommitted changes exist.
  • README.md and install.sh contain the real Gitea URL.

Non-Goals

  • Adding authentication to the dashboard.
  • Rewriting scripts in another language.

Stop Condition

When all acceptance criteria are met, output "CONTRACT_MET".
