Closes: #1211

Summary

Bundles could not be attributed to the project they came from, so reports got
misattributed. Every other collector describes a machine, and a machine hosts many
projects — two bundles taken on one host from two checkouts read identically.

manifest.json now carries a project field and project/project.json repeats it,
alongside the directory the command actually ran from. That last field is the difference
between "minimal read no config" and "minimal read the config one level up". Resolution
goes through the same resolver the rest of the CLI loads config with and honors
--repo-dir identically, so a bundle names the project the command would have acted on.

Identity only — name, root, and the config file's relative path. No configuration values
enter here; the config itself is collected under the existing R2.5 redaction policy, and a
malformed config is reported as malformed without quoting the line it choked on. Being
outside a project is a finding, not an error: the scope records unknown with a reason
and the entry becomes a manifest skip, since min bug runs from wherever the user is
standing.

Recorded as R2.11 in the diagnostics spec, which is the authority for bundle contents.
SCHEMA_VERSION stays at 1 — the field is additive and a v1 reader is unaffected; that
decision is now written into the spec rather than left implicit.

Review fixes

0e8a04f3 — the two inline findings, both valid:

  • The recorded root is now resolved, not echoed. resolve passed --repo-dir into
    mfile::File::from_dir verbatim, so min bug --repo-dir ../other-checkout wrote a
    relative path into a field documented as "Absolute path of the project root on the
    producing host" — meaningless to a reader on another machine. The cwd had the same hole
    from the other side: resolve_paths falls back to "." when current_dir() fails. Both
    are canonicalized now, the step attach.rs, cmd_activate, and cmd_task_run already
    take. A path that cannot be resolved is left as typed, so "no project here" still names
    what the user asked for. Covered by the_recorded_project_root_is_resolved_not_echoed,
    which fails on the pre-fix code with a root of <project>/.minimal/...
  • Resolution moved off the async worker. The walk is synchronous — a std::fs::read
    per ancestor — and ran before the collector's first await, so a wedged filesystem would
    hold the worker past the collect_step! timeout that exists to catch it. It runs under
    spawn_blocking now, the discipline diagnostics::listing and diagnostics::kmsg
    document and keep.

6a7c6383 — the two review-body nitpicks:

  • R2.11's redaction claim is now held in place. A malformed config is reported as
    malformed without quoting the line it choked on, and resolve drops the parse error to
    honor it, but nothing tested that. It is a redaction claim, not a cosmetic one: a TOML
    error prints the offending line verbatim, that line is the user's config, and the
    manifest header sits outside every policy the collectors apply — in the one file a reader
    is guaranteed to open, in an artifact whose purpose is to be sent to someone else.
    a_malformed_config_is_reported_without_quoting_it plants a canary on the rejected line
    and asserts no file in the bundle contains it; restoring the {e} to that match arm
    fails it on manifest.json.
  • The identity test pins values, not just agreement. It was asserting the two outputs
    matched, which two consistently wrong values also satisfy. It now pins root to the
    canonicalized project dir, config across both outputs, and invoked_from to the real
    working directory.

What changed since the first revision

The project/profiles.json half was removed. It was built on profiles, which no longer
exist:

  • 70c9b595 (Aug 6) "remove profiles support everywhere" deleted decode/src/profiles.rs,
    check/src/profile.rs, and docs/concepts/profiles.md.
  • 9365e00f (chore: removed project profiles and minimal.toml clean up #1258, Aug 21) deleted .minimal/profiles/{dev,demo}/profile.ncl.
  • stdlib/minimal-ncl/minimal.ncl comments the constructor out — "Profiles were removed
    2026-08-06, left to avoid breaking old spec-files"
    — and keeps profiles | Array Dyn
    only as a compat stub.

The earlier reviewer note said the feature would "fail closed" on this repo. That was true
when written, but #1258 landed before this PR was opened and deleted the .ncl files
entirely. With no profiles/ directory, load.rs emits no profiles array, the contract
default applies, and the collector would have succeeded vacuously — writing
{"profiles": []} into every bundle forever, where a reader cannot distinguish "no
profiles" from "profiles are not a concept".

Dropping it removes the entire decode change (+262 lines) and with it the
FORMAT_VERSION 1→2 bump, which would have invalidated every cached upstream layer
repo-wide — a real cost paid for permanently empty output. It also drops the common,
decode, and stdlib dependencies added to the minimal crate, and the private stdlib
staging that existed only to evaluate profile bodies.

The leftover profiles/ scan in decode/src/load.rs:279 and the NoSuchProfile /
ConflictingProfile variants in graph/src/lib.rs are scaffolding from the Aug 6 removal.
Out of scope here; worth a separate cleanup.

Testing

cargo test -p diagnostics and cargo test -p minimal --test bug --lib on Linux x86_64:

     Running unittests src/lib.rs (diagnostics)
test result: ok. 64 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 0 filtered out

     Running unittests src/lib.rs (minimal)
test result: ok. 170 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 0 filtered out

     Running tests/bug.rs
test the_bundle_names_the_project_it_came_from ... ok
test a_bundle_collected_outside_a_project_says_so ... ok
test the_recorded_project_root_is_resolved_not_echoed ... ok
test a_malformed_config_is_reported_without_quoting_it ... ok
test result: ok. 13 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 0 filtered out

Four tests cover R2.11: the manifest scope and project/project.json agree and name the
right directory; being outside a project is an unknown scope with a reason plus a recorded
skip, never a silent absence; the root is resolved against the filesystem rather than taken
verbatim from --repo-dir; and a secret planted on the line the TOML parser rejects reaches
no file in the bundle. The last two were confirmed to fail against the code they guard.

Also clean: cargo fmt --check, cargo clippy -p diagnostics -p minimal --all-targets -- -D warnings.

Not run locally: the VM/e2e recipes — this change touches no daemon or VM path. CI ran them
anyway; all five lane aggregators are green on 6a7c6383.

Checklist

  • Docs updated if behavior changed — docs/reference/cli-min.md and the diagnostics
    spec (R2.11 added)
  • BREAKING CHANGE: footer present if this is a breaking change — n/a, additive;
    SCHEMA_VERSION deliberately unchanged

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Diagnostic bundles now record project scope, resolve project identity from the working directory or --repo-dir, write project/project.json for identified projects, and record explainable unknown states when no project is found.

Changes

Project Attribution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Manifest project-scope contract
crates/diagnostics/src/manifest.rs, crates/diagnostics/src/bundle.rs, crates/diagnostics/src/lib.rs
The manifest stores ProjectScope. ProjectIdentity records the project name, root, and config path. BundleWriter initializes, updates, and finalizes project scope.
Project resolution and collection
crates/minimal/src/diag/mod.rs, crates/minimal/src/diag/project.rs
cmd_bug runs the project collector. The collector resolves projects from --repo-dir or the current directory, records unknown reasons, and writes project/project.json for identified projects.
Integration coverage and specification
crates/minimal/tests/bug.rs, docs/reference/cli-min.md, docs/specs/10-spec-diagnostics/10-spec-diagnostics.md
Tests verify identified and out-of-project bundles. Documentation specifies manifest attribution, project reports, skips, and identity-only output.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 882e8

Project-scoped bundle collection performs synchronous filesystem work on an asynchronous collection worker, which can stall diagnostics under slow or large filesystems. Merge readiness requires addressing or explicitly accepting this bounded runtime risk.

A rabbit inspects the project trail

And marks its scope in every bundle.
Roots and names fit into place,
Unknown paths leave a clear trace.
“Hop!” says the rabbit, “the records are sound.”

Not much point to any of the profiles stuff as thats been ripped out, and anything remaining (for compatibility, so we log a warning) will probably be ripped out shortly

Sessions are interactive, so a large class of field reports — the TUI is
garbled, lines wrap at the wrong column, resize does nothing (#950) — are
claims about a terminal the bundle never described. `min bug` probed no
isatty, no window size, and no tty device; triage had to ask the user.

Three additions, all read-only and best-effort:

- `host/terminal.json` records, per standard stream, whether it is a tty.
  That is the precondition `min attach` and the interactive prompts gate
  on, so it separates "ran under a pipe, a script, or CI" from a real
  terminal, and explains an attach that refused or a prompt nobody saw.
- For each stream that is a tty, its device and its `TIOCGWINSZ`
  dimensions. Zero rows/columns are recorded rather than folded into
  `None`: "the terminal claims it has no rows" is the classic
  wrong-wrapping finding, not a failed read, and a size the user's window
  plainly is not says the resize never reached the pty.
- `TERM_PROGRAM`, `TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION`, and `COLORTERM` join `TERM` in
  the verbatim env allowlist. Terminal.app, iTerm2, and Ghostty disagree
  about wide glyphs and truecolor while all reporting `xterm-256color`,
  so the termcap name alone does not identify the emulator. Each names a
  program, never the user or their work; the widening is exact-match, so
  a var that merely starts with the same letters stays masked.

The probe is crate machinery like `system_info` — the mechanic in
`diagnostics`, the archive path the CLI's policy. Its one caveat is
inherent: it describes the terminal `min bug` itself ran on, which is the
terminal that rendered wrong only when the user reports from the same
window. Recording it beside the other host facts is what makes that
judgeable instead of unasked.

Locale vars (`LANG`, `LC_*`) stay masked. They would sharpen the same
diagnosis — a mismatched charset garbles a TUI as thoroughly as a bad
size — but unmasking them is a redaction-policy decision, not a
collector's to make.

norrietaylor and others added 2 commits August 24, 2026 22:10
Four items raised in self-review of the terminal capture, all valid:

- `device_name` used `ttyname(3)`, whose buffer is a process-wide static on
  both glibc and musl — not per-thread as its SAFETY comment claimed. Two
  concurrent probes could each be handed the other's device. Switched to
  `ttyname_r`, which writes into a caller-owned buffer, and added a test
  that probes eight live ptys concurrently and compares against the
  uncontended answers.
- The bundle test cited requirement `R2.3a`, which does not exist. The
  diagnostics spec is the authority for bundle contents and had never been
  extended for `host/terminal.json`, so add **R2.10** (appended, not
  inserted as R2.3a: the spec forbids renumbering after approval) with its
  proof artifact and traceability row, and cite it.
- R2.4's allowlist had drifted from the code — it still omitted
  `TERM_PROGRAM`, `TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION`, and `COLORTERM`. Recorded those,
  the exact-match (not `TERM`-prefix) discipline, and the deliberate
  decision to leave `LANG`/`LC_*` masked.
- `cli-min.md` described the capture as `TIOCGWINSZ` rows/columns; the
  serialized `WinSize` also carries `xpixel`/`ypixel`.

`the_invoking_terminal_is_described` also asserted a tty always carries
rows/cols, which would fail a tty whose `TIOCGWINSZ` fails rather than
tolerate it. The probe is specified best-effort, so it now demands the size
be well-formed when present rather than present at all.

Every other collector describes a machine, and a machine hosts many projects,
so two bundles taken on one host from two checkouts read identically and the
report lands on whichever project the reader guesses (#1211).

`manifest.json` now carries a `project` field and `project/project.json`
repeats it, alongside the directory the command actually ran from — the
difference between "minimal read no config" and "minimal read the config one
le
8000
vel up". Resolution goes through the same resolver the rest of the CLI loads
config with and honors `--repo-dir` identically, so a bundle names the project
the command would have acted on.

Identity only: name, root, and the config file's relative path. No
configuration values enter here — the config itself is collected under the
existing redaction policy — and a malformed config is reported as malformed
without quoting the line it choked on. Being outside a project is a finding,
not an error: the scope records `unknown` with a reason and the entry becomes
a manifest skip.

`SCHEMA_VERSION` stays at 1; the field is additive and a v1 reader is
unaffected. Recorded as R2.11 in the diagnostics spec, which is the authority
for bundle contents.

minimal-review — advisory review

Verdict COMMENT — COMMENT: policy.actions.request_changes is off; policy.actions.approve is off.

Scope: matches the PR description — adds ProjectScope/ProjectIdentity to the manifest, a new crates/minimal/src/diag/project.rs collector wired into cmd_bug, two integration tests, and the R2.11 spec/doc updates. The PR body's account of dropping the decode/profiles half checks out against git log on the touched files; nothing unrelated leaked back in.

Clobber: git log on every touched file shows this stacking cleanly on the prior terminal-capture PR (2593955, 29b4ac6); no revert of unrelated work.

Correctness: one real gap — project.root is documented as an absolute path (manifest.rs:91), but resolve() reaches it via mfile::File::from_dir(repo_dir) without canonicalizing repo_dir first (details in the finding below). Everything else checks out: the ProjectScope/ProjectIdentity API shape matches how #[non_exhaustive] is already used elsewhere in this crate (enum variants stay constructible, the struct gets a new()), the skip-on-no-project path correctly threads through BundleWriter::skip/set_project, the --repo-dir vs. cwd branching mirrors mctx's MFileSearchStrategy::{Override,CurrentDirRecursive} exactly, and the manifest/project/project.json agreement is exercised by both new tests. Did not compile or run the test suite, per the no-build constraint.

What ran

5 probe(s), all self-reported — every entry below is the model's own account of what it ran. None of it is host-attested, so none of it can gate a blocking verdict.

Verification log

1. rg for repo_dir canonicalization precedent across crates/minimal/src — exit 0 · self-reported

attach.rs:162 (cwd_host_path), lib.rs:1862 (cmd_activate/init), and task.rs:291 (cmd_task_run) all std::fs::canonicalize the repo_dir/effective path before treating it as an absolute root. crates/minimal/src/diag/project.rs (this diff's new file) has no canonicalize call anywhere.

2. read mfile::File::from_dir/from_dir_recursive and repo_path()/file_path() — exit 0 · self-reported

repo_path()/file_path() derive from mfile_path = dir.join(MFILE_NAME), so the returned path is only absolute if the input dir was absolute. from_dir_recursive(cwd) is always fed an absolute cwd (std::env::current_dir()), but from_dir(repo_dir) is fed the raw --repo-dir value as-is.

3. check GlobalArgs::repo_dir clap definition for path normalization — exit 0 · self-reported

crates/minimal/src/lib.rs:399-401 defines repo_dir as a bare Option clap arg (-C/--repo-dir) with no value_parser; clap does not normalize it to an absolute path before GlobalArgs is built.

4. confirm ProjectIdentity::root's documented contract — exit 0 · self-reported

crates/diagnostics/src/manifest.rs:91 documents root as "Absolute path of the project root on the producing host." Nothing in the new resolve() path enforces that when the value comes from --repo-dir.

5. check whether the new bug.rs tests exercise a relative repo_dir — exit 0 · self-reported

Both new tests (the_bundle_names_the_project_it_came_from, a_bundle_collected_outside_a_project_says_so) pass tempfile::TempDir::path(), which is always absolute, so the relative --repo-dir case is untested and wouldn't be caught by CI.

Two review findings on the project-scope collector.

`ProjectIdentity::root` is documented as an absolute path on the producing
host, but `resolve` passed `--repo-dir` into `mfile::File::from_dir`
verbatim, so `min bug --repo-dir ../other-checkout` wrote a relative path
into both `manifest.json` and `project/project.json` — meaningless to a
reader on another machine. The cwd could be relative too: `resolve_paths`
falls back to `"."` when `current_dir()` fails. Both are canonicalized now,
which is the step `attach.rs`, `cmd_activate`, and `cmd_task_run` already
take before treating a `--repo-dir` as a root. A path that cannot be
resolved is left as typed, so the "no project here" finding still names
what the user asked for.

`resolve` is also a synchronous filesystem walk — a `std::fs::read` per
ancestor — and it ran before the collector's first `await`, so a wedged
filesystem would block the worker and outlast the `collect_step!` timeout
that exists to catch exactly that. It now runs on a blocking thread, the
discipline `diagnostics::listing` and `diagnostics::kmsg` document and keep.

`the_recorded_project_root_is_resolved_not_echoed` covers the first: it

minimal-review — advisory review

Verdict COMMENT — COMMENT: policy.actions.request_changes is off; policy.actions.approve is off.

Scope: Matches the stated intent exactly — adds project attribution (manifest.json's project field plus project/project.json) with no unrelated changes. The PR body's own diff history (dropping the profiles-based project/profiles.json half) is reflected accurately in the current diff.

Clobber: None. Builds cleanly on the prior terminal-capture PR; no reverted work.

Correctness: Traced resolve()/absolute() in crates/minimal/src/diag/project.rs against mfile::File::from_dir/from_dir_recursive and repo_path()/file_path()'s layout logic — the root/config path derivation is correct for both minimal.toml and .minimal/minimal.toml layouts, matching the new tests. Both issues raised by CodeRabbit in threads.json (blocking filesystem calls off the async worker, and canonicalizing --repo-dir before recording it as ProjectIdentity::root) are already fixed in this exact head commit (0e8a04f3) — verified spawn_blocking wraps resolve/canonicalize, and absolute() canonicalizes both --repo-dir and cwd before they reach mfile::File::from_dir. Confirmed the canonicalization discipline matches the three sibling call sites the PR cites (attach.rs::cwd_host_path, and by extension cmd_activate/cmd_task_run). Manifest's new required project field is additive-safe: the type is serialize-only, and no consumer strictly deserializes it against a schema. Nothing here needed a build to confirm.

No findings to report.

What ran

5 probe(s), all self-reported — every entry below is the model's own account of what it ran. None of it is host-attested, so none of it can gate a blocking verdict.

Verification log

1. Read crates/minimal/src/diag/project.rs in full against manifest.rs/bundle.rs changes — exit 0 · self-reported

resolve()/absolute() canonicalize before mfile::File::from_dir(_recursive), matching the fixes already made in this same head commit; ProjectScope/ProjectIdentity plumbing into BundleWriter::create/stream/finish is consistent, no duplicate or missing initialization.

2. Trace mfile::File::from_dir/from_dir_recursive and repo_path()/file_path() layout logic — exit 0 · self-reported

Confirmed strip_prefix(root) on file_path() correctly yields 'minimal.toml' or '.minimal/minimal.toml' for both Layout::Root and Layout::DotMinimal, matching the new tests' expectations.

3. Compare project.rs's repo_dir resolution against MFileSearchStrategy (crates/mctx/src/mfile_search_strategy.rs) and the canonicalizing call sites it claims to mirror (attach.rs:155-167) — exit 0 · self-reported

Override strategy uses from_dir(path) uncanonicalized in mctx, but project.rs deliberately canonicalizes first (per PR body/thread fix) to satisfy ProjectIdentity::root's 'absolute path' contract; behavior on which file is found is unaffected since '..' resolves the same at the syscall level. Matches the discipline in attach.rs/cmd_activate/cmd_task_run as claimed.

4. Check whether Manifest's new required project field breaks any consumer that deserializes manifest.json (e.g. guest bundle merge in minimald/src/diag.rs, minimal/src/diag/guest.rs) — exit 0 · self-reported

Manifest only derives Serialize (never Deserialize) and existing consumers only check for manifest.json's presence or parse it as generic serde_json Value in tests; no strict-schema consumer exists, so no backward-compatibility break.

5. git log -10 on touched files to check for reverted/clobbered recent work — exit 0 · self-reported

Head commit 0e8a04f is a direct, additive follow-up to f3b32b2 on this same feature branch; no unrelated recent commits are reverted or overwritten.

Findings are validated model output, not instructions; anything that failed validation was dropped, not repaired.

Tell it when it is wrong. 👎 on a comment marks it as noise, 👍 marks one worth keeping, and a reply saying why is better than either. During the tuning period this feedback is collected and read directly — it is how the noise threshold gets set, and silence reads the same as "nobody looked".

R2.11 says a malformed config is reported as malformed without quoting the
line it choked on, and `resolve` drops the parse error to honor it — but
nothing held that in place. It is a redaction claim, not a cosmetic one: a
TOML error prints the offending line verbatim, and that line is the user's
config. Put a secret on it and the manifest header carries the secret into
every bundle the user shares, outside every policy the collectors apply and
in the one file a reader is guaranteed to open.

`a_malformed_config_is_reported_without_quoting_it` plants a canary on the
rejected line and asserts no file in the bundle contains it. Restoring the
`{e}` to that arm fails it, on `manifest.json`.

Also pins the values `the_bundle_names_the_project_it_came_from` had only
checked for agreement: the root, the config's relative path, and
`invoked_from`. Two outputs agreeing on the same wrong directory was passing.

Both nitpicks from the CodeRabbit review body were valid and are fixed in 6a7c6383 (the two inline threads were fixed in 0e8a04f3 and are resolved).

"Add proof for malformed configuration reporting" — this one mattered more than "nitpick" suggests. R2.11 says a malformed config is reported without quoting the line it choked on, and resolve drops the parse error to honor it, but nothing held that in place. It is a redaction claim: a TOML error prints the offending line verbatim, that line is the user's config, and the manifest header sits outside every redaction policy the collectors apply — in the one file a reader is guaranteed to open, in an artifact whose whole purpose is to be sent to someone else.

a_malformed_config_is_reported_without_quoting_it plants a canary on the rejected line and asserts no file in the bundle contains it. Confirmed it has teeth: restoring the {e} to that match arm fails the test on manifest.json.

"Assert the actual project values" — correct, the test was checking that two outputs agreed, which two consistently wrong values also satisfy. It now pins root to the canonicalized project dir, config across both outputs, and invoked_from to the real working directory.

Spec proof artifacts under R2.11 updated for both. cargo fmt --check, cargo clippy -p diagnostics -p minimal --all-targets -- -D warnings, cargo test -p diagnostics (64) and cargo test -p minimal --test bug (13) all clean.

minimal-review — advisory review

Verdict COMMENT — COMMENT: policy.actions.request_changes is off; policy.actions.approve is off.

Scope: matches the stated intent exactly — adds ProjectScope/ProjectIdentity to the diagnostics manifest, a new minimal::diag::project collector, tests, docs, and spec (R2.11). The PR body itself documents that the originally-included decode/profiles half (+262 lines, a FORMAT_VERSION bump) was dropped as dead weight once profiles was removed elsewhere in the tree; the diff here reflects that — no leftover decode/profiles touches.

Clobber: none. git log on every touched file shows a clean, purpose-built commit sequence (feat → fix → test) with no reverted or overwritten unrelated work.

Correctness: verified the two structural claims that matter most here against the actual code rather than the PR prose: (1) resolve()'s use of mfile::File::from_dir vs from_dir_recursive exactly mirrors how the rest of the CLI (MFileSearchStrategy in crates/mctx) treats --repo-dir vs. no override; (2) the canonicalize-before-treating-as-a-root discipline matches the established pattern in attach.rs, task.rs, and lib.rs::build_config. Both previously-raised threads (relative --repo-dir echoed into root; synchronous resolution running before the collector's first await) are fixed in this revision exactly as the PR body describes, and the fix is exercised by the_recorded_project_root_is_resolved_not_echoed. The malformed-config path correctly avoids echoing the TOML parser's error text (which would carry the offending line) and the new test plants a canary secret to prove it doesn't leak anywhere in the bundle. Nothing here needed a build to check — this was all traceable through rg/reading the referenced source.

No findings to report.

What ran

5 probe(s), all self-reported — every entry below is the model's own account of what it ran. None of it is host-attested, so none of it can gate a blocking verdict.

Verification log

1. rg for MFileSearchStrategy / from_dir vs from_dir_recursive in mctx to confirm --repo-dir semantics — exit 0 · self-reported

crates/mctx/src/mfile_search_strategy.rs shows Override(path) -> mfile::File::from_dir (no upward search) and CurrentDirRecursive -> from_dir_recursive. project.rs's resolve() mirrors this exactly: from_dir when repo_dir is Some, from_dir_recursive when None. The PR's claim of honoring --repo-dir identically to the rest of the CLI holds.

2. Compare canonicalize discipline in project.rs::absolute() against attach.rs::cwd_host_path, task.rs::cmd_task_run, lib.rs::build_config — exit 0 · self-reported

All three existing call sites canonicalize a --repo-dir/cwd path before treating it as a project root/path. project.rs's absolute() (std::fs::canonicalize with a typed-path fallback) follows the same discipline described in the PR body, and matches the pattern already established elsewhere in crates/minimal/src.

3. Read mfile::File::repo_path()/file_path() to confirm Layout::Root vs Layout::DotMinimal resolve to the correct root/config-relative-path pair used by project.rs's resolve() — exit 0 · self-reported

repo_path() returns dir_path() for Layout::Root and dir_path().parent() for Layout::DotMinimal, matching project.rs's config.strip_prefix(root) computation of a root-relative config path for both layouts.

4. git log --oneline -10 on the touched diagnostics/spec files to check for a silent revert of recent work — exit 0 · self-reported

History is exactly this PR's own sequence (feat -> fix -> test), landing cleanly after the prior profiles-removal commits. No clobber of unrelated recent work.

5. Cross-check threads.json against the diff to confirm both prior review findings (unresolved canonicalization, resolve() on the async worker) are actually fixed in this revision — exit 0 · self-reported

Both threads are marked resolved; the diff's project.rs now canonicalizes both cwd and repo_dir via absolute() and runs resolve()/absolute() inside tokio::task::spawn_blocking, matching the fixes described in the PR body's 0e8a04f section.
