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
## Summary
- Added CORS headers (`Access-Control-Allow-Origin`, `Methods`, `Headers`) to all API responses via `_send_json()` and `_send_error()`
- Added `do_OPTIONS` handler for CORS preflight requests
- Added `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff` header to all responses
- Added `MAX_POST_BODY = 65536` (64KB) content-length limit on POST review endpoint
- Added `MAX_REVIEW_COMMENT_LENGTH = 4096` character limit on review comments
- Replaced inline `onclick` handlers in review buttons with `data-task`/`data-status` attributes + event delegation
- Applied `escapeHtml()` to `task.display_name` in `renderTaskCard()`
- Filesystem task name validation was already implemented in `fix-verdict-parsing` (R2 of this SPEC is done)
## Changes
- `automaton/dashboard/ui/app.py`: Added CORS headers, `do_OPTIONS`, content-length bounds, comment truncation
- `automaton/dashboard/html/dashboard.js`: Replaced onclick handlers with data attributes, escaped display_name
## Test Results
119 passed in 0.08s (full suite)
Dashboard starts and serves correct CORS headers on all API responses
## Blockers
None
