The last agent tool. When the PM states standing intent ("pilots come first"),
Reginald logs it verbatim to an append-only JSONL ledger in the pm-state repo —
a directive is intent; its effects still land through propose_change. This
completes Reginald's tool surface: query_project · propose_change · capture_work
· record_directive.
core (@commitea/core):
- directives/record-directive-v0: schema (kind/quote/target/params/rationale +
id/ts/status), serialize/parseDirectiveLog (ts-ordered, seq computed on read,
corrupt lines skipped), appendDirective (concatenation merge), toDirectiveInput.
- RECORD_DIRECTIVE_TOOL + system prompt update ("log standing intent; never claim
a change is applied").
- gitea client: getFile/putFile (contents API, base64-agnostic) for the pm-state repo.
app:
- main: a pm-state client (same token, `commitea-pm-state` repo — the purity
split, D4); appendDirectiveEntry (read→append→write, id/ts stamped here),
readDirectives. model:chat executes record_directive; pmstate:directives reads
the ledger. Degrades cleanly when the pm-state repo is absent.
- Directives screen shows the real ledger when present, the fixture demo otherwise.
Note: the pm-state repo isn't created yet — my token lacks write:user (repo
creation). Create `commitea-pm-state` (private) to activate the live path; all the
code + tests are in place. Override with COMMITEA_PMSTATE_REPO.
Verified: 116 core tests green (8 directive + 2 contents-API added), desktop
typecheck clean, 14 fixture e2e green. Gated live test: the real gemma-4-26b calls
record_directive for "pilots come first" (logs intent, doesn't claim to apply it);
the append/read + POST/PUT contents paths are unit-tested.

Completes "chat is the write-path" (decisions.md D1). Ask Reginald to re-estimate
or reprioritize an issue; it formulates a proposal, you approve it inline, and the
write runs through the same guarded apply_changes engine the Issue screen uses.
The model never writes — it proposes; the app owns approval + execution.
core (@commitea/core):
- propose_change tool declaration + REGINALD_SYSTEM updated ("never claim a change
is applied; you propose, the human approves").
- proposalsFor(args, currentLabels, title): pure — builds the concrete, non-noop
ChangeProposal(s) (change + label diff) for a propose_change request, dropping
invalid/unchanged axes. ChangeProposal / ProposeChangeArgs types.
app:
- model bridge executes propose_change by planning against the issue's current
labels (no write) and returns the proposals with the turn.
- useChat surfaces pending proposals + approve/dismiss; approve calls onApplyChange
(AppShell's guarded handler → PUT + board/forecast refetch), dismiss leaves it.
- ChatPanel renders each proposal as a propose-approve card (diff + Approve/Dismiss).
Verified: 101 core tests green (4 proposalsFor added), desktop typecheck clean,
14 fixture e2e green. Gated live e2e against gemma-4-26b: "Set the estimate on #3
to est/5d" → Reginald proposes "est/2d → est/5d" as an inline card, says it's
*proposed* not done; Dismiss leaves the repo untouched. The approve→write path is
the #41 engine (separately verified change→revert).

The fixture chat panel is now a working agent. Ask Reginald a question and it
consults the real project through a tool loop, then answers in grounded prose.
Read-only v0 — writes still go through the propose-approve controls.
core (@commitea/core/agent):
- chat-client: OpenAI-wire chat completions over an injected fetch (same seam as
gitea). Points at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (LM Studio/Ollama/OpenAI).
- model-router: small model for prose + the read tool; big model reserved for
later decomposition (pickModel).
- agent-loop: runAgentTurn drives call→tool→result→call until prose (or a step
budget), recording each tool step. Injected complete + execute → fully testable.
- query-project: the single read tool's engine — compact focus/board/calibration/
issue/search views built from scheduler + lifecycle + calibration; unbuilt views
return a notImplemented marker (never fabricated). The model reports, never computes.
- agent-tools: query_project declaration + Reginald's system prompt.
app:
- main model bridge (model:status, model:chat) runs the loop; query_project
reconciles the repo and builds the view. Model traffic stays in main (token/CSP).
gitea.ts refactored to share getGiteaClient + reconcileSnapshot.
- preload + global.d.ts expose the model bridge; useChat drives the panel — real
agent turn when a model is configured, scripted fixture reply otherwise (so
fixture e2e is unchanged). A subtle "consulted the project" activity line.
Model config (env, defaults to LM Studio on :1234): COMMITEA_MODEL_URL /
_SMALL (google/gemma-4-e4b) / _BIG (qwen/qwen3.6-35b-a3b). COMMITEA_E2E=1 keeps
it unconfigured so the panel stays scripted.
Verified: 88 core tests green (14 agent: client parse, loop tool/error/budget,
all views) + a gated live integration test. Desktop typecheck clean, 14 fixture
e2e green. Gated live e2e drives the real app against gitea + gemma-4-e4b: asked
"what now?", Reginald called query_project and answered "focus is on issue #2"
(the real scheduler pick).
