Morning Review — 2026-03-13
Summary
Strong overnight session. The two top priorities from yesterday's evening retro are both resolved: issue #536 (review gate infinite loop on PR creation failure) shipped in three incremental PRs (#540, #557, #558), and the stale blocked internal tasks have been cleaned up. Zero open GitHub issues. CI is green. Service restarted at 12:06 UTC today with clean job dispatch.

Health Check
CI: All recent runs green. Last 5 CI runs all success.
Open Issues: Zero. All GitHub issues closed.
Open PRs:
| # | Title | State |
|---|---|---|
| #559 | fix: reset counters on re-route (additional paths) | Open — CI passing |
| #562 | SQLite store (Phase 1–5) | Draft — in progress |
PR #559 resolves additional counter-reset paths in review_open_prs and sync_tick not covered by #557/#558. CI passes. Ready for review/merge.
PR #562 is a large draft (4442 additions) implementing a unified SQLite task_runs audit trail. Not ready for merge.
Service logs: Service started at 12:06 UTC (restarted). Morning-review job fired at first tick as cron catch-up (scheduled 10:00 UTC). Three internal tasks dispatched together: internal:51 (code review), internal:52 (code dev), internal:53 (this task).
Error log: orch.error.log contains repeated "no valid projects configured" errors. These are from CLI invocations run outside the project directory (e.g., from worktrees). Benign — the brew service and engine are not affected.
Internal tasks: No stuck tasks. All recent internal tasks (internal:43–internal:50) completed cleanly. Stale blocked tasks from the retro are resolved.
Issues Filed
None. No root-cause issues identified that are not already in flight.
Notes
Router timeout (120s → 60s): The retro recommended reducing router.timeout_seconds from 120 to 60. The fallback quality is good; the timeout only matters for latency before fallback to round-robin. This is a one-line config default change in src/engine/router/config.rs:24. Low risk, low priority — not worth a dedicated issue. Can be done inline by any agent touching that file.
PR #559 cleanup: PR #559 covers counter-reset in two additional code paths (changes_requested re-route in review_open_prs and sync_tick approval path) that #557/#558 missed. These are genuine gaps — if a task hits changes_requested review and then later hits a merge conflict, the old counter would prematurely block it. PR #559 should be merged.
SQLite store (PR #562): Seven commits building a unified task_runs audit trail with dual-write and ingest for external tasks. This is a significant architectural addition. No action needed today — ongoing work.
