The MultiEdit deny rule was already dropped in the hotfix; this is task
10's follow-up half — the guard that catches the next fossil.
The claude adapter's review branch spells "cannot edit files" in the
vendor's own tool names, and that roster moves: a rule naming a tool the
installed CLI does not have is refused at startup, so the launch dies
before the agent speaks. Membership assertions could not see that
happening, so the stub-binary test now asserts each mode's flag list
literally (settings payload elided) — a deny name added or renamed shows
up as a diff a reviewer must re-verify against the installed CLI. The
run script carries the same warning where the list actually lives.
The helper drops a leaked AGENT_MODEL, since --model would otherwise
appear in an argv now compared whole; test_agent_model.py owns that flag.

First field bug of v0.1-alpha: install.py was committed 100644, so
every install shipped it permission-denied for direct ./install.py use
(start.sh's python3 invocation masked it). Exec bit set on all four
shebang'd files (install.py, board.py, hook_settings.py,
permission_config.py) and install.py added to update.sh's post-update
chmod line so already-broken installs heal on their next update. The
artifact-side invariant test — every shipped #! file executable — is
card 21.

Both adapters' act-pr stances gain git fetch and git merge so a
conflicted PR can be resolved by merging main into the branch. History
rewriting is denied outright rather than merely unlisted — the plain
'git push' allow would otherwise cover the force spellings — via deny
rules in the claude settings and last-match-wins deny globs in the
opencode config. git rebase stays absent and denied in both.
act-pr.md teaches the flow: merge origin/main, honour both sides'
intent, tests green, the resolution in its own commit naming files and
choices, covered explicitly in the report — and refuse semantic
conflicts (main made the branch's premise false) by aborting the merge
and naming the collision for a human. The adapters README records the
widened contract.

BOARD_AGENT_MODEL picks one model for every headless launch;
BOARD_AGENT_MODEL_WORK / _ACT_PR / _REVIEW beat it per intent (review
covers PR reviews and relevance checks). Empty — the default — means
the variable never reaches the adapter and the vendor's own resolution
applies, exactly today's behaviour; a stray AGENT_MODEL in the board's
own environment is stripped rather than inherited silently.
Core carries the name as an opaque string: config resolves intent →
model, _launch passes it as AGENT_MODEL, and each adapter renders it
natively — claude appends --model, opencode sets the generated
config's model key ("provider/model-id", per its docs). The resolved
model (or its absence) is recorded on the agent record, so the
Sessions and Focus views state what a run actually rode instead of
leaving it to whoever's machine the board happens to run on.
Stub-binary tests pin the byte-identical-when-unset guarantee, the
per-intent resolution, the launch-env seam and the record.

AGENTS.md is the cross-vendor name (opencode, Codex, Gemini CLI read it
natively; so does current Claude Code), and the brief goes to every
vendor's agents — an opencode work agent previously launched with no
project brief at all. The content moves verbatim to AGENTS.md at the
root and in manager/local/; each CLAUDE.md becomes a load-bearing
compatibility pointer (@AGENTS.md import) for older Claude Code CLIs.
update.sh's core-owned file list now carries both names, so updating an
old-layout install lands AGENTS.md and replaces the full CLAUDE.md with
the pointer instead of resurrecting it. All four core prompts, README,
the board.py/taskfiles.py docstrings, the task template and the adapter
contract docs now name AGENTS.md; adapters/README.md notes that vendors
reading AGENTS.md from the working tree need no adapter work.

What counts as a definition-of-done check was the origin project's
stack (pytest / lint-imports / frontend) frozen into core: emit.py
classified against inline literals and the Focus panel carried three
fixed rows with duplicated regexes. Per the three-layer law that is
project knowledge, so it now lives in one file: core/checks ships the
old rows as the default, and a checks file in manager/local/ replaces
it wholesale — the same filename-wins resolution as prompts.
- core/checks: '<label>: <command regex>' per line, self-documenting;
read fresh on every use.
- emit.py classifies Bash commands against the resolved file (kind
'check', the label carried into the summary) and judges pass/fail
generically — counted results, broken totals, OK/FAILED verdict
lines — since the hook payload carries no exit status. The runtime
moved under a __main__ guard so the classifier is importable.
- config.checks() mirrors the parser (the bridge stays standalone) and
httpd serves it in /api/state; the Focus panel renders one row per
served entry, matching events with the same patterns — no fixed
rows, no duplicated regexes.
- manager/local/checks gives bench its real definition (unittest), so
the self-hosted board shows a check that can actually run.
- The default BOARD_AGENT_COMMANDS drops its pytest prefix: core no
longer names any stack outside the shipped checks default, and a
test walks manager/core to keep it that way.

Twelve task cards from the first self-hosted dogfooding sessions: 02,
05, 06, 07 done; 08 in review; 09 queued; the rest in backlog. Review
launches no longer pass the retired MultiEdit tool name as a deny rule
(it killed every review/relevance launch at flag parsing — task 10
keeps the follow-up test work). Gitignore .worktrees/ and personal
.claude/settings.local.json; commit the portable .claude/settings.json
that task 02's wiring fix now generates.

Three layout defects broke ./start.sh in the self-hosted repo, one of
which (missing local/state/) broke every fresh vendored install too:
- install.py resolved the project as TM.parent, a hardcoded vendored-
layout assumption. It now asks git for the toplevel from the manager's
directory (same resolution as config._repo_root), falling back to the
parent when git is unavailable — vendored installs still find the host
repo, self-hosted bench finds itself instead of its parent.
- adapters/claude/wire hardcoded ".task-manager/" into the emit hook
command and plansDirectory. Both are now derived from the manager's
path relative to the project root, so vendored installs keep the
.task-manager/ prefix and self-hosted bench gets prefix-free paths.
_is_ours also recognises the emit.py suffix, so settings wired with
the old literal path count as stale and are repaired idempotently.
- board.py and state.py created the sessions/agent dirs without
parents=True; local/state/ is gitignored and ships empty, so a virgin
checkout died with FileNotFoundError before serving. Boot now creates
the whole chain, wiring or no wiring.
tests/test_self_hosting.py (stdlib unittest) covers both layouts' wiring,
stale-path repair, idempotent re-runs, refusal without .claude/, root
resolution with and without git, and an integration boot of board.py
from a scratch checkout with no local/state/.

Work agents were launched under acceptEdits with no Bash allowlist, so
headless runs could edit files but never run tests or commit — the exact
contradiction card 05 documents. Each launch intent (work, act-pr,
review) now carries a permissions.allow list granting exactly what its
prompt demands, delivered through the same generated settings JSON as
the event hooks. Project test/check commands arrive as neutral prefixes
via BOARD_AGENT_COMMANDS; a new opencode adapter renders the same three
stances in its config language as the portability proof. A clean agent
exit with an empty branch no longer advances the card to review.

Everything core from cicero-pas's .task-manager, with instance data
reduced to skeleton: empty stage directories, the task template, empty
local/ scaffolding, and a README covering install (clone into
.task-manager/, vendored on purpose) and update (update.sh replaces core
wholesale; local/ and tasks/ survive).
