Tasks: Loop-reliability + CI-red burndown remediation

Mission: loop-reliability-ci-red-burndown-01KXWWD6 · Branch: fix/loop-reliability-ci-red-burndown Plan: plan.md · Spec: spec.md · Landmines: data-model.md

Six independent WPs (disjoint owned_files), two lanes. Land the ready product fixes (WP01/WP02) and burn down the tracked CI reds (WP03-WP06). Every WP flips a pre-existing red-first repro red→green; resolve edit sites by SYMBOL, not line number (LM-10); use uv run --extra test pytest (LM: lane-venv fallback #2803).

Subtask Index

ID	Description	WP	Parallel
T001	Rebase `0153934f9` onto main (3 clean + `tasks_move_task.py --3way`)	WP01	[P]
T002	Verify the consumer-repo repro still fires + the 2 red-first tests green	WP01
T003	`_daemon_start_skip_reason` honors `SPEC_KITTY_SYNC_DISABLE`/`MINIMAL_IMPORT`	WP02	[P]
T004	Flip `test_daemon_sync_disable_env` green; confirm unset-env path unchanged	WP02
T005	Append the `_isolate` sync-toggle fixture to existing `tests/sync/conftest.py`	WP03	[P]
T006	Red-first confirm the fixture greens `test_strict_json_stdout` on main (LM-7); serial `-n0` daemon suite (LM-8)	WP03
T007	`isinstance` guard at `load_url_list_from_config` (schema-drift) + docstring	WP04	[P]
T008	Run the FULL `test_charter_epic_golden_path` + phase3/orchestrator to green (LM-9)	WP04
T009	Seed `charter.yaml` in `test_bundle_contract._init_fixture`	WP05	[P]
T010	Skip-when-logged-out guard on `test_upgrade_updates_templates`	WP05
T011	Clear `resolver.__warningregistry__` in `test_resolve_by_urn`	WP06	[P]
T012	Add `platform` to the mission-loader-coverage job `if:` in ci-quality.yml	WP06

WP01 — Land the consumer-repo pre-review-gate calm-degrade (#2534)

Priority: P1 · Prompt: tasks/WP01-land-consumer-repo-gate-calm-degrade.md Requirements: FR-002; NFR-003; C-002, C-003 · Tracker: #2534 Independent test: the 2 red-first tests (test_pre_review_gate_engine/_integration) green; a consumer-repo move-task --to for_review calm-degrades (no "gate authorities unavailable").

□ T001 Rebase 0153934f9 (3 clean + tasks_move_task.py --3way; port-intent if it fights — LM-1, C-002) (WP01)
□ T002 Verify the consumer-repo repro still fires on main; the 2 red-first tests green (WP01)

WP02 — Sync daemon honors the disable env (#2573b)

Priority: P1 · Prompt: tasks/WP02-daemon-honor-disable-env.md Requirements: FR-003; NFR-003; C-003 · Tracker: #2573, #2555 Independent test: test_daemon_sync_disable_env green; unset-env path spawns as before.

□ T003 _daemon_start_skip_reason returns a skip reason when SPEC_KITTY_SYNC_DISABLE/MINIMAL_IMPORT truthy (reuse is_truthy) (WP02)
□ T004 Flip test_daemon_sync_disable_env green; confirm unset-env → None (behavior-preserving) (WP02)

WP03 — Isolate the strict-JSON test from the leaked sync toggle (#2809)

Priority: P2 · Prompt: tasks/WP03-isolate-strict-json-sync-toggle.md Requirements: FR-001, FR-005; NFR-001 · Tracker: #2809, #2782 Independent test: test_strict_json_stdout green in CI regardless of leaked toggle; the serial -n0 daemon suite still passes.

□ T005 APPEND the _isolate_pre_review_gate_sync_toggles autouse fixture to the EXISTING tests/sync/conftest.py (LM-8) (WP03)
□ T006 Red-first confirm the fixture greens test_strict_json_stdout on current main (LM-7 — if #2782's connection-refused cause is live, escalate not blind-xfail); run daemon/orphan-sweep serial -n0; decide the @regression marker (WP03)

WP04 — Fix the schema-drift crash in dry-run evidence (#2807, clears 3 reds)

Priority: P2 · Prompt: tasks/WP04-evidence-schema-drift-guard.md Requirements: FR-004; NFR-001 · Tracker: #2807 Independent test: test_phase3_dry_run_evidence_smoke, the orchestrator dry-run test, AND the full test_charter_epic_golden_path all green.

□ T007 if not isinstance(charter_cfg, dict): charter_cfg = {} at load_url_list_from_config + fix stale docstring; do NOT re-wire url_list (LM-2, C-005) (WP04)
□ T008 Run the FULL test_charter_epic_golden_path to green (dies at synthesize today — post-synthesize assertions unverified, LM-9) + phase3/orchestrator (WP04)

WP05 — Charter CI-fixture hygiene (#2807)

Priority: P2 · Prompt: tasks/WP05-charter-ci-fixture-hygiene.md Requirements: FR-004; NFR-001, NFR-002 · Tracker: #2807 Independent test: test_bundle_contract green; test_upgrade_updates_templates skips-when-logged-out (green in CI).

□ T009 Seed + git-commit a minimal charter.yaml in test_bundle_contract._init_fixture (v2 manifest tracks both) (WP05)
□ T010 Add skip-when-logged-out guard to test_upgrade_updates_templates (env-guard over blanket xfail, LM-6) (WP05)

WP06 — CI flake + workflow filter-guard (#2812)

Priority: P2 · Prompt: tasks/WP06-ci-flake-and-workflow-guard.md Requirements: FR-006; NFR-001, NFR-002 · Tracker: #2812 Independent test: test_resolve_by_urn stable across parallel runs; the loader-coverage job runs on a mission_loader/**-only change.

□ T011 Clear resolver.__warningregistry__ inside the catch_warnings block in test_resolve_by_urn (WP06)
□ T012 Add || needs.changes.outputs.platform == 'true' to the mission-loader-coverage job if: (LM-5); confirm job self-sufficiency (WP06)

Dependencies & Lanes

All six WPs are independent (disjoint owned_files, no ordering dep — verified by the post-plan squad). WP02 does NOT depend on WP03 (LM-11 — the daemon repro sets its own env). Lane A (product): WP01, WP02. Lane B (CI hygiene): WP03-WP06. finalize-tasks computes lanes (~2-6 lanes).
