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).

Bug Report: Multi-Agent Support

Methodology

Reviewed claim/release/next-available/available commands, .state.lock files, Agent Configuration in .agent.md, and single-agent zero-overhead guarantee.

Acceptance Criteria

# Criterion Result
1 Single-agent mode has zero behavioral change ✅
2 --claim creates .state.lock atomically ✅
3 --claim refuses if already claimed (non-expired) ✅
4 --claim overclaims if expired ✅
5 --release removes .state.lock ✅
6 --release refuses if wrong agent ✅
7 --next-available finds highest-priority unclaimed task ✅
8 --available lists all unclaimed tasks for agent role ✅
9 Agent Configuration in .agent.md activates multi-agent ✅
10 .state.lock excluded from --validate-folder ✅
11 Completed tasks auto-release locks ✅

Findings

  1. Minor: Lock timeout defaults to 30 minutes. The configurable timeout parsing (5m, 10m, etc.) from .agent.md works but is case-sensitive — 30M would not be parsed correctly. Minor UX issue.

  2. Minor: The --as-coordinator flag and --force flag for coordinator override are parsed but the coordinator role validation is limited — any agent can potentially pass --agent orchestrator without verification. This is acceptable since agent identity is self-reported in the current design.

Verdict: PASS
