OWNED SOFTWAREFORGEKIT

Build Log · September 29, 2026

The question ForgeKit could not accept an answer to

An Actor asked the owner two real questions, the UI said 'Waiting on your reply', and there was no way to reply — in all four canvas apps.

Timeline

  1. Start

    Charge: stop the email spam

    Screenshot of ~50 Foreman alerts, many repeating the same admin_intent

  2. Diagnosis

    Cooldown was working; the DATA was wrong

    Rows resolved Sep 6-7 still read execution_state='working' three weeks later

  3. Mid

    Zeb: a run came back red and Courtney's reply went nowhere

    Run 36654428230 — Actor did everything right, step exited 1 anyway

  4. Core find

    The reply box only existed for shaping

    A concluded, owner-blocked request had no input at all — all 4 canvas apps

  5. Ship

    Deployed canvas-1; 3 requests replyable

    Foreman noise closed structurally, not by a manual UPDATE

What shipped

  • replyToActorClarification in experiments/canvas-1..4/lib/actions/requests.ts — the owner can finally answer a question the Actor asked mid-run

  • Canonical execution-lineage columns (execution_state, block_reason, blocked_at, owner_outcome) added to all four canvas Drizzle schemas — they existed in the live DBs and the Actor wrote them, but the apps could not read them

  • request_replies table in all four canvas schemas, created live in canvas-1 and canvas-2, with a partial unique index making a retried submission a no-op

  • Reply UI gated on the real canonical state in experiments/canvas-1/components/RequestPanel.tsx (and canvas-3/4), plus canvas-2's RequestHistoryList.tsx + Workspace.tsx prop chain

  • COORDINATOR_RESOLVES_TRANSITION in products/medinaCHF/lib/owner-loop-transitions.ts — resolve/dismiss/reject now write the canonical columns they silently omitted

  • A narrow no-op branch in forgekit-os/scripts/finalize-owner-intent.mjs so a request deliberately waiting on the owner stops reporting as a failed run

  • recheckResource() hook in forgekit-os/scripts/foreman/rules/stale-active-work.mjs + a second resolution pass in sweep.mjs — lets a non-exhaustive rule close a finding whose condition genuinely cleared

  • Two dry-run-first backfill scripts, both committed rather than run and discarded

  • 43 tests across 4 new/updated suites, all wired into npm run test:os
