What changed

• Adds atomic Task claim/version/generation CAS and exact machine/profile reservation ownership.
• Adds bounded, durable claim recovery and standalone-Mongo restart convergence.
• Bounds deadline and lease-expiry maintenance with index-aligned pages and real Mongo execution-plan assertions.
• Preserves machine accounting across token rotation and races reserve/release behavior in both repositories.
• Verifies claim projections before returning a lease and fences stale reconciliation plus generation-N worker/action operations after N+1 reclaim.
• Adds a dedicated three-attempt authorized-user CAS path for input, handoff, cancel, and interactive close without changing worker 401 semantics.
• Prevents losing user CAS attempts from writing pending-input/handoff side effects; handoff requires a committed, database-time-active claim.
• Restores the FKST-compatible lowercase test check name.

Blocking gap: expired heartbeat write fence

teleology:
Established distributed-lease practice requires renewal and expiry to linearize at one authoritative CAS with identity, generation, version, and lease-time fencing; no evidence proves that practice inapplicable. I defend against proportional-containment’s claim that the normal path has “no blocking proxy-over-truth”: getWorkerTask() checks expiry before the write (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:393), but heartbeat() later extends the Task through a CAS (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150) whose Mongo predicate contains status, claim identity, generation, and version—not authoritative expiry (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:106). Thus heartbeat can validate before expiry, pause while another Task takes the profile solely via lockExpiresAt (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:249), then renew its Task after expiry. Its projection renewal fails, but committed claims are neither aborted in heartbeat() nor repaired by reconciliation (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:151, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:354), leaving a renewed worker-authorized Task without its profile authority. The fidelity and natural-ownership peers independently identify this same root invariant failure. The sequential exact-version test does not exercise the required deterministic heartbeat-versus-expiry barrier (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242). This fails cumulative finding 3 and the stated generation-guarded lifecycle requirement.

parsimony:
Established distributed-lease practice requires lease identity, fencing generation, version, and unexpired authority to hold atomically at the mutation linearization point; no evidence proves that practice inapplicable. The peer attack defeats the root claim: heartbeat() validates expiry only during the preliminary getWorkerTask() read, then performs a separate replacement (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:141, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:393). TaskClaimGuard contains no expiry fence (control-plane/src/domain/types.ts:166), and Mongo’s atomic predicate checks only status, identity, generation, and version (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:106). Consequently, a heartbeat admitted immediately before expiry can pause, then extend the authoritative Task after expiry while another Task acquires the same Profile solely through expired lockExpiresAt (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:249). When projection renewal then fails, the already committed old claim is neither aborted (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:151) nor repaired by reconciliation (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:352), yet worker authorization continues trusting that committed Task and its extended expiry (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:376). The sequential exact-version test does not exercise this required heartbeat/expiry/profile interleaving (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242). Require an atomic temporal fence or authoritative invalidation before profile takeover, with a deterministic shared Memory/Mongo race test.

fidelity:
Established linearizable lease practice requires renewal and expiry to contend at the authoritative CAS using identity, generation, version, and lease deadline; Talos already applies that temporal-fence pattern through TestingAttemptMutationGuard and database-time predicates (control-plane/src/storage/repository.ts:4, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:441). The root defect remains: getWorkerTask() checks expiry before mutation (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:393), but the later heartbeat CAS (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150) uses TaskClaimGuard, which contains no lease deadline (control-plane/src/domain/types.ts:166), and replaceTaskForClaim() tests only status, identity, generation, and version (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:106). Therefore a heartbeat admitted just before expiry can pause and renew after authority expired. The natural-ownership and teleology peers corroborate the resulting profile split: takeover independently trusts lockExpiresAt (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:249), while a failed post-CAS projection renewal leaves a committed Task unaborted (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:151, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:352). The parsimony queue-priority and proportional-containment legacy-leak claims may identify additional failures, but fixing them cannot prevent this expired write; the sequential version test likewise does not exercise the required heartbeat-versus-expiry barrier (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242).

natural-ownership:
Established distributed-lease practice requires renewal and takeover to contend at one authoritative CAS boundary, with projections unable to declare an authoritative generation dead. The peer attacks do not defeat my root claim; teleology and fidelity instead confirm it by identifying the missing expiry fence in replaceTaskForClaim(). heartbeat() validates expiry only during the preliminary getWorkerTask() read, then extends the Task through a later CAS (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:141, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:393, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:431), whose repository guard checks status, identity, generation, and version but not lease expiry (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:106, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:62). Concurrently, acquireProfileLease() permits a different claim to take the Profile solely from lockExpiresAt, without proving the prior Task generation inactive (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:249, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:201). If the old heartbeat CAS extends its committed Task before discovering that takeover, projection repair fails and throws but does not abort the committed claim (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:151); reconciliation likewise leaves a committed active claim unresolved when projection repair fails (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:352). Its worker remains authorized by the extended Task (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:376). Parsimony’s queue-priority and proportional-containment’s legacy-recovery findings are independent leaves, not evidence that this split authority is safe. The sequential exact-version test does not exercise this required heartbeat/expiry/profile barrier (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242).

proportional-containment:
Established distributed-lease practice requires renewal, expiry, and takeover to linearize against one authoritative lease record using CAS plus fencing tokens; projections cannot independently infer authority expiry. Fidelity’s claim moves me because the Task expiry check occurs only during the preliminary getWorkerTask() read (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:376, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:393), while the later replaceTaskForClaim() guard contains only claimId, claimGeneration, taskVersion, and status (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:442; control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:106). A heartbeat that reads just before expiry can pause and atomically extend the Task after expiry. Concurrently, acquireProfileLease() permits another claim to take the profile solely from lockExpiresAt <= observedNow, without proving the prior Task generation inactive (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:249). If the old heartbeat then loses projection renewal, it throws after its Task extension but does not invalidate a committed claim (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150), and reconciliation leaves committed active claims unresolved when projections remain unavailable (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:352). Thus two generations can retain operational authority around one profile, directly failing the stated heartbeat/expiry and single-profile-owner requirements. The sequential version-CAS test does not exercise this interleaving (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242). Put observed time and authoritative leaseExpiresAt in the Task mutation CAS, and require takeover to follow invalidation of the former Task generation.

Blocking gap: inconsistent expiry authority

teleology:
ESSENCE: A lease renewal must not revive authority after expiration; renewal and expiry must contend at one linearization point, or Task authority can diverge from machine/profile ownership. Established distributed-systems practice is linearizable compare-and-set renewal guarded by lease identity, fencing generation, record version, and an authoritative deadline; no evidence suggests that practice is inapplicable. IDEAL: Make the authoritative Task mutation atomically require the exact current claimId, claimGeneration, taskVersion, status, leaseExpiresAt, and an unexpired database-time predicate, then update projections only after that CAS. The new head does this: heartbeat() routes through replaceActiveClaimedTask() (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:141, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:438); TaskActiveClaimGuard carries the exact deadline (control-plane/src/domain/types.ts:173); Mongo checks identity, generation, status, version, exact deadline, and $$NOW in one replacement predicate (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115); Memory performs the equivalent atomic deadline check using the supplied deterministic clock (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:75). The shared contract deliberately pauses renewal after its read and proves both repositories reject the post-expiry CAS without changing status, deadline, or version (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:264). Six smells: no magic number substitutes for authority; no proxy-over-truth because the Task CAS is decisive; no symptom branch because heartbeat uses the repository authority primitive; no narrative-over-verification because the barrier test falsifies the original race; no missing-inevitability because deadline fencing is forced by the lease’s purpose; and no skipped-purpose because the change directly prevents expired-worker revival. The previously named gap is closed.

parsimony:
ESSENCE: Established distributed-lease practice makes renewal and expiry contend in one authoritative CAS, fenced by lease identity, generation, version, and deadline; projections must not decide authority. The defect was a heartbeat admitted before expiry but persisted after expiry. IDEAL: Perform one Task-owned CAS that verifies the unchanged claim and authoritative lease remains unexpired at mutation time, then renew subordinate machine/profile projections. SIX-SMELL: The named gap is closed cleanly. heartbeat() now delegates renewal to the active-claim CAS rather than relying on its preliminary read (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:141, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150). The guard adds only the semantically necessary prior leaseExpiresAt (control-plane/src/domain/types.ts:166), and Mongo atomically matches identity, generation, version, exact deadline, and database-time unexpiry (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115); Memory provides equivalent observed-time behavior (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:75). The shared contract deterministically pauses renewal across expiry and proves rejection without mutation (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:264). Thus there is no magic-number authority, proxy-over-truth, symptom branch, narrative-only proof, missing causal inevitability, or skipped purpose. The dedicated replaceTaskForActiveClaim() primitive earns its existence by expressing the stronger renewal invariant without complicating non-temporal claim mutations.

fidelity:
ESSENCE: Lease renewal and profile takeover must share one linearizable expiry authority; otherwise two claim generations can simultaneously appear valid. Established distributed-lease practice is a single authoritative CAS over identity, generation, version, and time, with all projections using the same clock; no evidence shows that practice inapplicable. IDEAL: Atomically renew only when the stored Task lease is unexpired under the same authoritative clock used to permit profile takeover, and prove the heartbeat-versus-takeover interleaving through the shared Memory/Mongo contract. SIX-SMELL: Magic numbers—none material. Symptom branches—the dedicated active-claim mutation is structurally reasonable. Skipped-purpose—the intended fencing purpose is explicit. Missing-inevitability—the clock split is an unjustified deviation from the established single-authority model. Blocking proxy-over-truth and narrative-over-verification remain: heartbeat() supplies observedNow to replaceTaskForActiveClaim() (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:141, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150), but Mongo deliberately ignores it and tests expiry against database $$NOW (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:125), while profile takeover still uses caller-supplied observedNow (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:266, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:275). With application time past expiry but database time before it, a new claim can take the profile while the old heartbeat renews its authoritative Task. The added test only calls the Task CAS with fixed historical timestamps and never races profile takeover or service heartbeat() (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:264, control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:294), so it verifies a proxy rather than the required invariant. The named gap is not closed.

natural-ownership:
ESSENCE: Established linearizable distributed-lease practice requires renewal and expiry to contend at the authoritative lease record through one CAS fencing identity, generation, version, exact deadline, and current time; projections must not decide whether a Task generation remains authoritative. The prior head violated this because heartbeat checked expiry before its write. IDEAL: The Task repository naturally owns this invariant: atomically reject renewal unless the stored claim identity, generation, version, status, and original leaseExpiresAt still match and that deadline remains unexpired; Mongo should use database time, while the in-memory implementation uses its supplied observed clock. Machine/Profile remain subordinate claim-keyed projections. SIX-SMELL: The named gap is closed. heartbeat() now calls replaceActiveClaimedTask() rather than the weaker generic replacement (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:141, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150); its guard carries the exact prior leaseExpiresAt (control-plane/src/domain/types.ts:173, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:441). Mongo performs the complete predicate atomically and compares the stored deadline with $$NOW (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115), while Memory performs the equivalent expiry check at mutation time (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:75). The shared contract deterministically pauses after the read and proves the post-expiry mutation fails without changing the Task (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:264). Thus there is no magic number, proxy-over-truth, symptom branch, narrative-over-verification, missing-inevitability, or skipped-purpose: the causal invariant is enforced by its natural owner, and no in-scope fix regression is evidenced.

proportional-containment:
Established distributed-lease practice requires expiry to be checked atomically at the authoritative renewal CAS, not through a timestamp captured before an awaited write. The fix closes this for Mongo by comparing the stored leaseExpiresAt with database $$NOW (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115), but Memory accepts the earlier caller-provided observedNow (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:75). Because heartbeat() captures now before awaiting replaceTaskForActiveClaim() (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:143), a barrier can hold the Memory write until after expiry while its stale timestamp still authorizes extension. That is blocking proxy-over-truth and violates the required Memory/Mongo equivalence. The new test does not close the evidence gap: it calls the repository directly and deliberately passes expiredAt after its barrier (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:287), rather than pausing heartbeat() after time capture and proving the eventual CAS rejects. Mongo also ignores the shared method’s _observedNow, confirming divergent authority semantics (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115). The intervention remains properly contained at the Task repository layer, but that layer needs one consistent CAS-time expiry authority and a service-level deterministic regression test.

github-devloop fix-loop reflection: continue

Reason:
Established linearizable distributed-lease practice requires renewal expiry to be fenced at the authoritative CAS using a consistent mutation-time clock; the rounds are converging from a missing expiry fence to the bounded Memory/Mongo clock-equivalence gap, which directly falls within the original lifecycle and deterministic shared-contract acceptance bounds, so one focused fix pass is warranted.

Blocking gap: inconsistent expiry authority

teleology:
ESSENCE: A lease heartbeat exists to preserve one still-live worker authority, never to revive an expired generation; renewal and expiry must therefore contend at one authoritative linearization point. Established practice is repository-owned compare-and-set fencing by identity, generation, version, deadline, and mutation-time clock; no evidence makes that practice inapplicable. IDEAL: Task storage atomically verifies the exact active claim and unexpired stored deadline using its own clock, then subordinate machine/profile projections follow. SIX-SMELL: The focused change now has that forced form. No magic numbers govern authority. No proxy-over-truth: replaceTaskForActiveClaim() no longer accepts caller-captured time; Memory checks its injected clock at mutation (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:37, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:77), while Mongo checks leaseExpiresAt against database $$NOW inside the replacement predicate (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115). No symptom branch: heartbeat() uniformly delegates the decisive mutation to this repository primitive (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:141, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:438). No narrative-over-verification: the new service barrier pauses after heartbeat admission, advances through expiry, and proves rejection without Task mutation (control-plane/src/services/task-service.test.ts:34); the shared repository contract also exercises the expired CAS for both backends (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:264). No missing-inevitability: repository-time fencing follows necessarily from preventing delayed revival. No skipped-purpose: the previously identified Memory/Mongo authority split is removed, closing the cumulative heartbeat-versus-expiry requirement without expanding scope.

parsimony:
ESSENCE: A lease renewal and profile takeover must contend under one authoritative time source; otherwise an expired projection can be reassigned while its Task is renewed. Established linearizable-lease and fencing-token practice requires identity, generation, version, deadline, and mutation-time validity in the authoritative CAS, with dependent takeover using the same clock; nothing proves that practice inapplicable. IDEAL: Let MongoDB time govern both Task renewal and Profile takeover in Mongo, while Memory uses one injected repository clock, then test the complete heartbeat/pause/takeover interleaving through the shared service contract. SIX-SMELL: Magic numbers—none material. Symptom branches—the dedicated replaceTaskForActiveClaim() remains justified. Skipped-purpose—the intended expiry fencing is explicit. Blocking proxy-over-truth remains because replaceTaskForActiveClaim() uses MongoDB $$NOW, while acquireProfileLease() still accepts application observedNow (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:125, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:266, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:275). A heartbeat can capture application time before expiry, pause, a new claim can take the Profile after application-time expiry, and the old heartbeat can still renew while database time remains before expiry; ensureClaimProjections() then leaves the already committed renewed Task intact when Profile reacquisition fails (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:141, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:151, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:471, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:481). This is also narrative-over-verification and missing-inevitability: the new regression covers only Memory and never races Profile takeover or Mongo’s split clocks (control-plane/src/services/task-service.test.ts:34), while the repository contract exercises only

fidelity:
ESSENCE: The real invariant is that Task renewal, expiry, and profile takeover must use one authoritative time boundary; otherwise an expired generation can regain Task authority after its profile is reassigned. Established linearizable-lease practice requires identity/generation/version/deadline CAS under a consistent mutation-time clock, with projections subordinate; no proof shows that practice inapplicable. IDEAL: Let the Task store atomically decide whether the lease is unexpired, and permit profile takeover only under that same authoritative clock or after fenced Task invalidation, then test the complete heartbeat-versus-takeover interleaving. What changed: the fix correctly removes caller-captured time from replaceTaskForActiveClaim() and makes Memory check its repository clock at mutation time (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:37, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:77). But Mongo Task renewal uses database $$NOW (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115), while Mongo profile takeover still trusts application observedNow (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:266), passed from the heartbeat’s earlier service clock capture (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:143, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:481). Under application/database clock skew, takeover can accept the new claim while the database still accepts the old Task renewal. Six smells: no material magic number, symptom branch, or skipped-purpose; however this is blocking proxy-over-truth because profile expiry proxies for authoritative Task expiry, missing-inevitability because the split clocks unjustifiably deviate from the single-authority model, and narrative-over-verification because the new service test covers only Memory Task CAS (control-plane/src/services/task-service.test.ts:34) while the shared test directly exercises only Task replacement, not Mongo profile takeover (`control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.t

natural-ownership:
ESSENCE: Established linearizable-lease practice requires renewal and expiry to contend in one authoritative CAS, fenced by lease identity, generation, version, exact prior deadline, and mutation-time clock; no evidence shows this practice is inapplicable. IDEAL: The Task repository naturally owns whether a claim remains live; Mongo should use database time, Memory its injected repository clock, while machine/profile records remain claim-keyed projections. SIX-SMELL: The latest change closes the sole unsettled gap. heartbeat() no longer supplies a potentially stale observed time and delegates the guarded mutation to replaceTaskForActiveClaim() (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:141, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:437). Memory evaluates expiry from its own clock at the mutation locus (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:37, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:77); Mongo atomically matches identity, generation, version, exact stored deadline, and $$NOW (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115). The service-level barrier test pauses the CAS, advances beyond expiry, and proves rejection without Task mutation (control-plane/src/services/task-service.test.ts:34), while the shared repository contract checks both implementations (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:264). Thus no magic number governs authority, no proxy substitutes for repository truth, no downstream symptom branch compensates for a weak producer, verification replaces narrative, the interface makes stale caller time impossible (control-plane/src/storage/repository.ts:26), and the purpose—preventing post-expiry lease resurrection—is directly enforced.

proportional-containment:
ESSENCE: Lease renewal and profile takeover must use one authoritative expiry clock; otherwise separate claims can simultaneously hold Task and Profile authority. Established linearizable-lease practice requires identity-, generation-, version-, and deadline-fenced CAS operations using a consistent mutation-time clock, and no evidence shows it inapplicable. IDEAL: Keep authority at the natural repository owners: Mongo Task renewal and Profile takeover should both evaluate database time atomically, while Memory uses its repository clock; then prove the complete heartbeat-versus-profile-takeover race in the shared contract. SIX-SMELL: The latest fix correctly moves Memory renewal from caller-captured time to its repository clock, but the blocking proxy-over-truth remains in Mongo: Task renewal uses database $$NOW (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:115), while Profile takeover still trusts caller-supplied observedNow (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:266). With application time ahead of database time, a new claim may take the Profile while the old claim’s Task renewal still succeeds. heartbeat() commits that renewal before projection repair and does not abort an already committed claim when repair fails (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150). This also evidences narrative-over-verification: the new service regression covers only Memory and no Profile takeover (control-plane/src/services/task-service.test.ts:34), while the shared test directly exercises only the Task CAS (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:264). No material magic-number, symptom-branch, or skipped-purpose concern is needed; the single clock split remains goal-blocking.

Blocking gap: non-atomic renewal takeover

teleology:
ESSENCE: Established linearizable-lease practice requires renewal and expiry-driven takeover to contend through one authoritative ordering; using the same clock in separate document operations is insufficient. A heartbeat may renew the Task immediately before expiry, then a competing claim may take the Profile immediately after expiry but before the heartbeat renews that projection: heartbeat() commits the Task CAS before calling ensureClaimProjections() (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:151), while Profile takeover independently authorizes itself from the Profile’s local deadline (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:270, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:279). Because a failed projection repair does not invalidate an already committed claim (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:151, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:152), two Tasks can retain conflicting authority. IDEAL: Make Profile takeover depend on fenced authoritative Task expiry, or use a durable protocol that cannot commit takeover while a valid renewal is in flight and compensates whichever side loses. SIX-SMELL: No material magic-number or symptom-branch issue. Blocking proxy-over-truth remains because Profile-local lockExpiresAt substitutes for authoritative Task liveness. Narrative-over-verification remains because the added test checks isolated active/expired Profile acquisition, not the heartbeat-CAS/takeover interleaving (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242). This also evidences missing-inevitability: repository-time consistency is useful but does not force the single ordering required by the purpose. No separate skipped-purpose objection is needed.

parsimony:
The named gap, “inconsistent expiry authority,” is closed. Head c2d3460e84bc1eb0400a0431a56b0cd833778eb7 removes caller-supplied observedNow throughout the Profile path and makes both Mongo Task renewal and Profile takeover evaluate deadlines against database $$NOW (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:119, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:270); Memory performs both decisions with its single injected repository clock (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:77, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:209). This follows established linearizable-lease practice with less machinery, not another symptom branch. Shared backend tests cover repository-time takeover and expired renewal (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242, control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:286). No fix regression or remaining evidenced BEAUTY-GATE smell blocks advancement.

fidelity:
ESSENCE: The real invariant is not merely clock agreement: profile takeover must not occur while its prior Task generation remains renewable and authoritative. Established linearizable-lease/fencing practice requires renewal and takeover to contend at one authority boundary, or takeover must prove the former generation invalid; no evidence shows that practice inapplicable. IDEAL: Task storage decides liveness atomically, and Profile takeover is allowed only after fenced Task invalidation, with machine/profile records remaining claim-keyed projections. SIX-SMELL: The fix removes the application/database clock split by making Mongo Profile takeover use $$NOW (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:270, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:279), but it does not close the named gap. Blocking proxy-over-truth remains: Task renewal and Profile takeover are separate document CAS operations. Renewal can succeed immediately before the old deadline and extend the Task (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:119), then takeover can succeed immediately after the old Profile deadline but before projection renewal (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:150, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:151, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:481). When reacquisition fails, the already committed renewed Task is not invalidated because abortClaim() is conditional on claimCommitted !== true (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:152), and its worker remains authorized by that extended Task (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:380, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:393). Blocking narrative-over-verification also remains: the new test checks isolated active/expired Profile timestamps, not the required heartbeat-CAS/pause/takeover interleaving (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242). No material magic-number, symptom-branch, skipped-purpose, or separate missing-inevitability finding

natural-ownership:
ESSENCE: A live lease’s renewal and profile takeover must be decided using one mutation-time authority; caller-captured time permits an expired generation to retain Task authority while another generation acquires its Profile. Established linearizable-lease practice therefore places identity-, generation-, version-, deadline-, and clock-fenced CAS operations in the repositories that causally control those records; no proof makes that practice inapplicable. IDEAL: Task storage owns authoritative renewal, Profile storage owns takeover, and both use the same repository-local clock, with projections remaining claim-keyed and subordinate. SIX-SMELL: The named gap is closed. The final change removes observedNow from acquireProfileLease() and its consumers, preventing consumers from supplying expiry authority (control-plane/src/storage/repository.ts:45, control-plane/src/services/profile-lock.ts:15). Mongo now evaluates both Task renewal and Profile takeover against database $$NOW inside their atomic predicates (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:119, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:270); Memory evaluates takeover with the same injected repository clock used for active-Task replacement (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:71, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:213). The shared contract verifies rejection of active-lock takeover and acceptance after repository-observed expiry (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242). Thus there is no authority magic number, proxy-over-truth, downstream symptom branch, narrative-only verification, unjustified missing-inevitability, or skipped-purpose. No in-scope fix regression is evidenced.

proportional-containment:
The named gap, inconsistent expiry authority, is closed. Mongo Task renewal already fences the stored deadline against database $$NOW (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:119), and Profile takeover now uses that same database-time authority through atOrBeforeDatabaseNow('$lockExpiresAt') (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:270). The repository interface no longer accepts caller-supplied observation time (control-plane/src/storage/repository.ts:45), and ProfileLockService.acquire() delegates the decision without hoisting clock authority into the service (control-plane/src/services/profile-lock.ts:15). Memory equivalently evaluates expiry with its repository clock (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:209). The shared contract verifies rejection of takeover for an active lock and acceptance after expiry and runs against both repositories (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242, control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:783). This is proportionally contained at the natural persistence owner, with no fix-local regression or evidenced BEAUTY-GATE smell inside the stated bounds.

Blocking gap: takeover queue priority corruption

teleology:
ESSENCE: The purpose is to ensure that lease renewal and expiry-driven Profile takeover cannot both succeed for conflicting Task generations. Established linearizable-lease practice requires both operations to contend on one authoritative, versioned, identity-fenced record; subordinate projections must not infer authority from their own deadlines. IDEAL: Atomically CAS either renewal or expiry on the Task using exact claimId, claimGeneration, taskVersion, status, deadline, and repository time; only the expiry winner may release and replace Profile/Machine projections. SIX-SMELL: The named gap is closed. acquireProfileLease() no longer permits deadline-based takeover, eliminating Profile-local liveness as a proxy for Task truth (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:215, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:287). On conflict, acquireProfileProjection() identifies the owning generation and must first win replaceTaskForExpiredClaim() before releasing its projections and retrying acquisition (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:492). Renewal and takeover therefore race through complementary CAS predicates on the same exact Task version and deadline: active renewal requires an unexpired Task, while expiry requires an expired Task (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:119, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:136; control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:77, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:83). Shared Memory/Mongo contracts verify renewal blocks stale projection takeover and takeover follows authoritative requeue, with a service-level heartbeat interleaving as additional evidence (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242, control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:322, control-plane/src/services/task-service.test.ts:79). Thus there is no material magic number, proxy-over-truth, symptom branch, narrative-over-verification, missing-inevitability, or sk

parsimony:
ESSENCE: A profile takeover must never race past a valid renewal; both decisions must linearize on the prior Task generation. Established lease practice uses identity-, generation-, version-, and deadline-fenced CAS, with resource records as projections. IDEAL: Reject direct expiry-based profile takeover; atomically invalidate the expired Task, then release its projections and acquire them for the successor. SIX-SMELL: The named gap is closed. Renewal uses replaceTaskForActiveClaim() against the exact Task deadline/version, while takeover uses the mutually exclusive replaceTaskForExpiredClaim() on that same authority (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:116, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:136); only after winning does the service release the former claim and retry profile acquisition (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:501, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:526, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:531). Profile storage no longer substitutes its local expiry for Task truth (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:291). No material magic number governs authority; the added conflict path is the necessary protocol rather than a symptom branch; deterministic shared Memory/Mongo tests verify renewal wins and expired-generation takeover (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242, control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:322), so there is no narrative-over-verification. The form follows inevitably from standalone MongoDB’s single-document CAS constraint, and it directly serves restart-safe exclusive ownership without skipped purpose.

fidelity:
ESSENCE: Established linearizable-lease and fencing-token practice requires renewal and takeover to contend through one authoritative compare-and-set boundary; a projection’s local expiry cannot prove the underlying lease dead. The real invariant is that profile ownership changes only after the prior Task generation is atomically invalidated. IDEAL: Keep Task storage authoritative for lease liveness, permit renewal only while unexpired, permit takeover only through the complementary expired-claim CAS, and treat machine/profile records as claim-keyed projections. SIX-SMELL: The named gap is closed. acquireProfileLease() no longer grants takeover from lockExpiresAt; it accepts only the same claim or an unlocked profile (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:287, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:215). On conflict, acquireProfileProjection() verifies the profile’s exact Task identity and must atomically requeue that generation through replaceTaskForExpiredClaim() before releasing and reacquiring the projection (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:501, control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:526). Mongo evaluates expiry inside that Task CAS with database time and exact status, identity, version, and deadline guards (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:136); therefore renewal-first makes takeover fail, while expiry-first makes the stale renewal fail. This removes the blocking proxy-over-truth. Narrative-over-verification is also closed by the deterministic heartbeat-commit/pause/takeover service test (control-plane/src/services/task-service.test.ts:79) and the shared Memory/Mongo contract covering authoritative renewal and successful post-expiry takeover (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:242, control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:322). No evidenced magic-number, symptom-branch, missing-inevitability, skipped-purpose, or fix-regression smell remains within the sta

natural-ownership:
ESSENCE: Lease renewal and takeover must linearize at the authoritative Task generation, while requeue must preserve that Task’s scheduling identity. Established practice is Task-owned CAS fencing followed by idempotent projection release; no evidence makes it inapplicable. IDEAL: CAS the expired Task from its exact claim identity/version/deadline to submitted, restore its persisted claimQueuePriority, then release Machine/Profile projections and retry acquisition. The named “non-atomic renewal takeover” gap is closed: renewal and expiry requeue now race through complementary Task CAS predicates (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:119, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:136), and Profile storage no longer declares expiry itself (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:287). However, the new takeover path introduces a goal-blocking magic numbers and skipped-purpose regression: although claim creation persists the original priority in claimQueuePriority (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:115) and normal compensation restores it (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:568), takeover requeues the displaced Task with unexplained queuePriority: -1 (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:517). This violates the cumulative requirement to restore original ordering and can promote a formerly lower-priority Task after profile takeover. proxy-over-truth is otherwise resolved by Task CAS; no blocking symptom branches, narrative-over-verification, or missing-inevitability remains, but the takeover test verifies status/accounting without asserting preserved priority (control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:322).

proportional-containment:
ESSENCE: Lease renewal and expiry-driven Profile takeover must contend through authoritative Task state; a Profile deadline cannot independently revoke a live generation. Established linearizable-lease practice uses identity-, generation-, version-, deadline-, and mutation-time-fenced CAS, with cross-document projections subordinate. IDEAL: On Profile conflict, atomically invalidate the prior Task only if its exact generation remains expired, then release its projections and retry acquisition. The final fix does precisely this: Profile storage no longer performs expiry takeover itself (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:287, control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:215); TaskService.acquireProfileProjection() identifies the recorded owner and calls replaceTaskForExpiredClaim() before releasing or reacquiring the Profile (control-plane/src/services/task-service.ts:492); Memory and Mongo enforce exact identity, version, deadline, and repository-time expiry at that Task CAS (control-plane/src/storage/memory-repository.ts:83, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:136). The delayed-renewal regression proves takeover is refused after renewal commits, and the shared contract covers both repositories plus successful takeover only after expired-generation requeue (control-plane/src/services/task-service.test.ts:79, control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:263, control-plane/src/storage/repository-contract.test.ts:322). SIX-SMELL: no magic number governs authority; no proxy-over-truth remains because Task CAS decides liveness; no symptom branch because the helper implements the complete invalidate-release-reacquire protocol; verification replaces narrative; the structure follows inevitably from standalone Mongo’s lack of cross-document transactions; and it directly serves single-owner lease safety. The named gap is closed without hoisting authority into a generic transaction framework.

Request: re-enter the valid fix/review loop for PR #35

Please continue on the existing FKST work item #34 and the existing PR #35. Do not open a replacement PR, merge to staging, merge to qa-tools, enable auto-merge, squash, rebase, force-push, or delete the branch.

Fixed context:

• base: qa-tools-fkst-staging@748a8e71b0a8b5626dffdedded7778b67ec52382
• current PR head: f4e8a0b
• latest CI run: https://github.com/ChronoAIProject/talos/actions/runs/34093462936

The latest run is blocked before tests and image smoke by the same TypeScript errors:

• control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:245:42, TS2769
• control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:273:17 and :273:37, TS2322

Required fix:

1. Fix the Mongo machine lease update typing at those two update operations using the repository's real typed document/update shapes. Do not use broad casts, any, or suppressions. Keep Memory/Mongo reservation semantics aligned and preserve the existing acceptance behavior.
2. Restore FKST-compatible check discovery by making the displayed test check name exactly lowercase test (not only the job id), while preserving the four required jobs and their existing gates.
3. Run the complete required verification and publish a new immutable PR head:
   • build
   • typecheck
   • lint
   • worker bundle
   • fixture generation plus drift check
   • full tests
   • Mongo contract tests
   • all four PR CI jobs
     The test and runtime-image jobs must actually reach npm test, test:mongo-contract, both image builds, and all runtime smoke steps.
4. After the new head is green, request Locke's complete independent base-to-head review from 748a8e7 through the new immutable head. The prior focused FKST approval is not sufficient. Any findings must be fixed and re-reviewed by Locke on the same PR.

The current ci-unknown gate is not an approval signal. Keep the PR open and unmerged until all four checks are green and the complete independent review passes.

Blocking gap: unfixed Mongo typing

teleology:
ESSENCE: The settled lease design is not at issue; this head exists to restore compilability and CI discovery after the prior approval. Established TypeScript/MongoDB practice is to type each collection with its concrete persisted document schema and express filters and updates through narrow Mongo Filter/UpdateFilter shapes; an open { [key: string]: unknown } document is not an acceptable substitute, and no proof shows that practice inapplicable. IDEAL: Retain the approved behavior, model the Machine document—including leaseReservations—precisely, make $push/$pull typecheck without casts or suppressions, and lowercase the displayed check name. SIX-SMELL: Magic numbers, proxy-over-truth, and symptom branches add no new objection. The check rename is correctly present (.github/workflows/ci.yml:40), but the new head leaves machines as Collection<Document> (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:30) and leaves the previously failing $push and $pull expressions verbatim (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:245, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:273). That is blocking skipped-purpose—the explicitly required Mongo typing repair was not made—and narrative-over-verification—the head advances while retaining the exact source identified as failing TS2769/TS2322. It also exhibits missing-inevitability: the patch’s form is not forced by its stated purpose because it performs only the CI-name half of the required fix. The previously settled atomicity behavior need not be re-litigated.

parsimony:
ESSENCE: The remaining task is not lease-protocol design—prior review settled that—but making the approved implementation type-safe and buildable at the new immutable head. Established practice for statically typed MongoDB adapters is to model each collection’s actual document shape and use Mongo’s narrow filter/update types, so update operators are compiler-verified; novelty has not been justified. IDEAL: Define a typed machine document whose mutable leaseReservations array supports Mongo update operators, then express reservation and release through narrow Filter/UpdateFilter-compatible values without any, suppressions, or broad casts; separately retain the lowercase check name. SIX-SMELL: Magic numbers—no new regression; the previously rejected queuePriority: -1 is settled. Proxy-over-truth—the lowercase check label cannot substitute for compilable persistence code. Symptom branches—none newly evidenced. Narrative-over-verification—the new head claims to address the required TypeScript failures, but the diff leaves the failing implementation unchanged: machines remains Collection<Document> where Document is the broad { _id: string; [key: string]: unknown } (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:6), and the same $push and $pull update documents remain at the reported failure sites (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:245, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:252, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:273). Missing-inevitability—the requested real Mongo document/update typing is absent, not replaced by a proven alternative. Skipped-purpose—the head changes name: Test to name: test, satisfying only the check-discovery requirement, while skipping the explicitly cumulative compiler fix (.github/workflows/ci.yml:40). This is goal-blocking because build/typecheck success is a stated acceptance requirement, not a later mergeability demand.

fidelity:
ESSENCE: Task lease correctness was already settled at f4e8a0b...; this head must remove the two Mongo type failures without weakening that protocol. Established practice is to model the actual Mongo machine document and use driver-native typed filter/update shapes, with compilation verifying correspondence rather than casts or assertions. IDEAL: retain the approved lease semantics, narrowly type machines and its $push/$pull updates, and lowercase the displayed check name. SIX-SMELL: magic numbers—none newly material; symptom branches—none; missing-inevitability—no proof established typing practice is inapplicable. Blocking proxy-over-truth and narrative-over-verification remain: the patch changes name: Test to name: test (diff.patch:8), improving gate discovery, but leaves the reported findOneAndUpdate() and $pull expressions unchanged (diff.patch:1162, diff.patch:1188; control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:245, control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:273). The pinned final Mongo blob is still 7e7fd3b (diff.patch:994), identical to the type-failing approved-head checkout; no document schema, typed update shape, dependency, or compiler evidence was added. That also skips this revision’s explicit purpose: fixing TS2769 and TS2322. The prior atomicity approval remains settled, but this head cannot advance.

high-risk:
Established practice for security-critical lease/scheduler changes requires narrowly typed persistence operations and a buildable path to concurrency and recovery verification; no evidence shows that practice inapplicable. Since the approved f4e8a0… head, the patch only changes the displayed check name from Test to test (.github/workflows/ci.yml:40) while leaving the expressly identified Mongo failures unchanged: the repository still uses the broad Document index-signature model (control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:6), and the problematic findOneAndUpdate reservation and combined $inc/$pull release operations remain at control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:245 and control-plane/src/storage/mongo-repository.ts:273. Thus the producer did not supply the required narrow Mongo document/update typing, and the security-sensitive atomic lease-accounting implementation remains unbuildable and unavailable for the mandated race, restart, and smoke verification. Renaming the CI check is justified and does not itself widen permissions or dependencies, but it cannot substitute for fixing the lease-authority code it is meant to validate.
