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).

Raw Blame History

Verdict: add-status-brakes

Status: PASS

The task delivers the loop-engineering brakes layer (R1–R10) entirely inside status.py, with no new dependencies and no second enforcement surface. It is the foundation that tasks 3–7 build on; everything those tasks need to call (--check-gate, --can-continue, --approve --loop, --can-edit --loop, --create-loop, --install-schedule, --loop-list, .state.log) is now in place and unit-tested.

Requirement coverage

Req	Delivered	Tests
R1 `.state.loop` schema	All 13 fields, atomic tmp+rename	`TestStateLoopSchema` (2)
R2 `--create-loop`	kebab/dup/template rejection, name patch	`TestCreateLoop` (5)
R3 `--version`, `--approve --loop`	version regex; only halt-clear; `resumed_count++`	`TestVersionAndApprove` (4)
R4 `--can-continue`	running-only probe	`TestCanContinue` (3)
R5 `--check-gate` (6 gates)	First-failure halts + JSON	`TestCheckGate` (10)
R6 `--install-schedule`	Darwin/Linux/Windows dispatch + stub	`TestInstallSchedule` (3)
R7 `--can-edit --loop [--loop-worktree]`	Root residency + file_scope	`TestCanEditLoop` (4)
R8 `--transition` halt refusal	Owned-task scan	`TestTransitionHaltRefusal` (3)
R9 `--audit` Cat-6 + `--loop-list`	Runs even when no tasks; untracked/halted flag	`TestAuditAndList` (6)
R10 `.state.log` tick trail	ISO timestamps	`TestTickLog` (3), `TestPauseResume` (3)

Total: 46 new tests. Suite: 310 passed (was 264 + 46 new). No regressions. python3 -m py_compile scripts/status.py clean.

Defense against the five loop deaths

drift → _gate_worktree_drift (R5)
runaway → _gate_iterations (R5)
bad verifier → _gate_score_plateau (R5)
resource burn → _gate_budget (R5, remote-only informational)
undetected halt → R8 transition refusal + Cat-6 audit + gate halt-write

Harness / OS / model agnosticism preserved

All surface reachable via status.py subprocess + --json. No harness-specific code. Works with opencode or any harness (D8).
platform.system() dispatches launchd/cron/schtasks; missing tools degrade gracefully (warn + skip, not crash). D13 honored.
Framework never inspects model capability/size/provider — --loop-mode already refused sub-16k in task 1; this task does not consult any model field.

Doc impact landed

AGENTS.md Harness Integration modes block extended with the --loop worktree-scope mode (mode 5).
AGENTS.md new "State Enforcement — Loops (v1)" section.
README.md new "Loop Engineering (beta)" subsection with quick-reference commands.
CHANGELOG.md [unreleased] entry for the brakes layer.

Hardening items deferred (tracked)

A6 fcntl lock on .state.loop → v1.1.
A2 --claim-loop-task atomic ownership → task 3.
O3 blast_radius.base_branch drift parameterization → task 5.
O4 _enable_schedule Linux parity → task 5 / v1.1.

All four are explicit follow-ups in BUG_REPORT.md and ADVERSARIAL_BUG_REPORT.md; none block this task.

Resolution

PASS — proceed to complete. Task add-status-brakes is the foundation for the loop v1 implementation. Tasks 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 can now be unblocked, each relying on the standardized .state.loop schema and the brakes gates this task ships.
