Routes children: Engineer-tier for ambiguous/architectural subtasks, Assistant-tier for well-defined implementation subtasks +6. Each child title gets a size prefix: `[5pt] [GH#NNNN-1] Implement auth token refresh` + +**Decomposition cap:** max 5 children. If an issue needs more, it is an epic — PM creates a Paperclip goal instead and assigns triage to CTO. + +### Batch Cap + +**5 issues dispatched per 30-minute cycle.** This prevents the backlog from flooding agents all at once.

From a6c13d9a974bf30232d79a79fe9f02d20e44bf2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: mrveiss <martins.veiss@gmail.com> Date: Sun, 31 May 2026 18:34:25 +0300 Subject: [PATCH 26/26] fix(heartbeat): add 10-min grace period for local runs with no stored PID MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When the server crashes/restarts before persistRunProcessMetadata writes the child PID to the database, reapOrphanedRuns() cannot check whether the process is still alive. Previously it immediately treated the run as dead, called releaseIssueExecutionAndPromote + startNextQueuedRunForAgent, and dispatched a replacement — while the original process kept running as an untracked orphan. On each subsequent restart this repeated, leading to exponential orphan accumulation that exhausted the WSL memory cap and froze the host. Fix: when tracksLocalChild=true but both processPid and processGroupId are null, skip the run if it was updated within the last 10 minutes. The slot stays marked "running" and countRunningRunsForAgent() counts it, so the concurrency cap remains enforced. After the grace window the slot is reclaimed as before. The startup reaper (staleThresholdMs=0) and the periodic reaper (5-min threshold) both benefit. Two new tests cover the grace-period boundary: - recent null-PID run: reaped=0, status=running (grace period active) - old null-PID run: reaped=1, status=failed (grace period expired) All 46 process-recovery tests pass.
