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.md — Autopilot Runtime
## Changes Made
- Created `scripts/autopilot.py` — a real Python implementation replacing the pseudocode `drive_all()` loop
- Added stuck-task detection to `status.py --audit` as Category 5
## autopilot.py Commands
- `--summary`: Shows project task overview (total, terminal, blocked, unblocked, stuck)
- `--drive`: Drives one step — finds the most advanced unblocked task and outputs next instructions
- `--loop`: Runs continuous drive loop with configurable iterations and delay
- `--stuck`: Detects tasks stuck in non-terminal phases >N minutes (default: 60)
## How It Works
- `scan_all_tasks()` reads .state files from all task directories
- `is_terminal()` checks for complete/human_intervention phases
- `needs_user_input()` detects approval gates and VERDICT.md with FAIL/NEEDS_REVIEW
- `sort_by_advancement()` prioritizes tasks closest to completion
- `detect_stuck_tasks()` finds tasks unchanged >60 minutes in non-terminal phases
- Empty queue outputs actionable instructions to create new tasks
