From 42c9cce7ae3adc5675fd14cd3ad8b15a217fb570 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Lavaee Date: Tue, 20 Oct 2026 23:25:26 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] Report a short workflow run's end in seconds instead of a minute A run that failed 0.124 s after it started was announced in Chat as "failed after 1 min." because the notice rounded to whole minutes with a floor of one. Durations under a minute now read in seconds ("12 s", "0.1 s"), and a run that ended in the second it started, which is all whole-second run cards can show, reads "less than a second".

Saving that answer started nothing: a card captured with open_decisions or open_decision has nobody waiting on it, so its Save reached the Planner only as a scoped write-up of the passage beside it, never as something to act on. Saving such an answer now starts one server-authored Planner turn that carries the question, the saved answer and who saved it, through the same instruction path every harness runs, including an attached Planner's turn. Answers a blocking ask or a workflow's question is waiting for still return to their asker and start no turn. The turn runs only under the existing owner, and under the remote harness only while a Planner is attached; an answer that found no Planner starts once one is available. Each saved generation starts at most one turn, and reopening or saving again makes a waiting one stale.

One card whose paragraph the rewrite deleted showed "Couldn't write this up", because its scoped write-up refused the orphaned passage. open_decision now takes the block the question concerns and places and links the card beside it, and without one, or when that block changed, beside the document's first section heading (or its first prose block when it has no sections). After a whole-document rewrite the Planner's own cards (not a workflow's questions or other people's decisions) stay linked: a surviving block keeps its card, and a deleted or replaced block hands it to the nearest heading above it that survived, else the first section. A write-up whose passage the rewrite deleted is dropped instead of failing; the answer still reaches the Planner as a turn of its own.
