`dashboard_runs.mode` is NOT NULL and `recordRun` swallows insert errors by
design, so pty-run.js passing `mode: null` meant NO tmux-backed run was ever
persisted — the newest row in a live database dated from before pty-run.js
replaced run-spawner.js. `publicRun` reads cwd, model, prompt preview,
started_at and session_id off that row and the handle itself is recomputed
from tmux, so the runs modal rendered a live row with no cwd, no model, no
prompt and a start date of Jan 1 1970. The same missing row is why a resumed
session kept its separate `external` badge: the client dedupes an external
session against the session ids carried by run rows, and no run row ever
carried one.
- pty-run.js records `mode: "interactive"` — every run here is one pane.
- dashboard-runs.js still never fails a live run on a db error, but warns
instead of swallowing silently; that silence hid this for six weeks.
- RunHistory renders `startedAt: 0` as "-" rather than dating a row with no
known start time to the epoch.
Also closes the other half of the same lie: adopting a pane that is already
running an agent now throws ERUNLIVE (409 from both the lane start action and
POST /api/run) when the request carried a prompt or a resumeSessionId. That
argv cannot be typed over a live agent, so answering 200 reported a resume
that never spawned. A start asking for nothing but a pane still adopts.
The Memory tab could only show this machine's user memory and the
dashboard's own project file. Setting up a project you had not run
through the dashboard meant opening a terminal — `PUT /file`'s
"project" scope always resolves against the server's cwd, on purpose.
Add one narrow route per tool that writes into the directory you name:
CLAUDE.md for Claude Code, AGENTS.md for Codex, both through the same
`project-memory.js`. Being the only write path that honours a
caller-supplied directory, it pays for that:
- the directory must be absolute and already exist — nothing is
created for you;
- the filename comes from the route, never from the body;
- an existing file, symlink included, is a 409 — this can only
create, never overwrite;
- it sits behind the loopback-Origin guard /api/run uses, so a page
in the user's browser cannot plant agent instructions in a project
directory. That guard moves to lib/same-origin.js to be shared.
The modal takes the dashboard's known project dirs as suggestions on a
free-text input rather than a closed list: a project it has never seen
is exactly the case this exists for.
Mutation-checked: dropping the origin guard, and swapping lstat for
stat, each fail a test.

Lanes: a durable unit of parallel agent work, one per working directory,
tracked across session restarts. Managed lanes are git worktrees the
dashboard provisions and can reset or remove behind a three-check destroy
guard and a counted preflight; adopted lanes are directories you already
own and are never destroyable.
Pipelines: a lane moves through pipeline stages. A stage the agent declares
with evidence renders green; a stage inferred from the tool-event stream
renders dashed amber and never counts as done. Detection is forward-only
within a 30-minute window, and never writes the declared stage.
Workspace: one page at /run with a lane grid, the selected lane's pipeline,
and a full Claude console behind a disclosure.
