Development Plan M1.1, as discussed.
- Schema v4: a work_items table (id, scope, title, status, outcome,
position, data) and an agent row whose active_item points at one
(NULL: idle). Canonical events and intents carry their work item, and
events their actor. Older stores are refused with a clear message:
there was no production data, so no migration (the mechanism stays).
- The log is reached through a Transcript bound to one work item and
one actor: store.transcript(item, actor) reads only that item and
writes with both. The planner, executor, delegation and expert desk
get one per call from the orchestrator instead of holding the store,
so a component can neither read another task's events (the planner
read every earlier task's, #78) nor write without attribution.
store.all_events() is kept for readers that span items (evaluation
capture, dumps). Intents are begun through the transcript or with
work_item=, so each belongs to its item.
- The orchestrator opens a work item on 'use', closes it with its
outcome (completed or abandoned), and carries what the operator said
while idle into the new item as copies with their origin, so a task
sent before 'use' is still planned from (D1). control.py keeps its
state machine through get_state()/transition(), now over the active
work item, until M2.6 retires it.
- nisse_dev.dump shows work items and each event's item and actor.
Tests: test_work_items.py (scoping, attribution, intent ownership,
restart, outcomes, carried messages, a second task never seeing the
first); the suites updated for the per-call transcript.

Architecture L9's role names, for the two roles with a direct
counterpart: the delegation role is now 'helper' and the ask_expert role
'expert', in RoleMap, configuration (roles.helper, roles.expert),
recorded events and tests. 'planner' and 'executor' stay distinct for
now; they become 'driver' when the new loop merges them (Development
Plan M2.3).
Configurations must rename their keys: nisse-dev.example.yaml and
tests/integration/nisse-test.yaml are updated here.

Development Plan M0.1. Every section reference in code, tests, specs/,
the example config, the tuning guide, and the CLAUDE.md and README files
now cites docs/Architecture.md (P, L, D, O, X, Q) instead of the old
spec's A-H, and docs/Architecture-Build-Spec.md is deleted (git keeps
it). The plan's old-to-new table goes with it.
Mostly mechanical, with a per-site choice where one old section split:
A4 became L2 where it meant stop/abandon/the loop and L3 where it meant
approvals; A10 became L6 in the context-budget code and L7 elsewhere; B2
became D4 for outbound Gitea and publishing and D5 for review intake;
'A3 step N' became the matching step of L8's boot sequence. Comments
describing behaviour the architecture drops (planning always escalating,
thresholds tuned at an old build step) now describe the current code and
point at the Development Plan.
docs/Architecture.md gains one line the rewrite missed: intake outages
delay but never fail work (old B2), now in L5, where the poller and
Matrix code cite it.
Comments and docs only; no behaviour change.

With no production instance yet, there is no reason to carry two ways
of configuring the agent. Every environment variable that duplicated a
config key is gone; the environment now supplies only the secrets the
file references by ${…}, plus NISSE_CONFIG and NISSE_ENV to find the
files.
- AgentConfig loads from a file (load, from_file) or a parsed tree
(from_tree, for tests); a missing file is an error naming the example
- The from_env constructors on LiteLLMClient, AnthropicPassthroughClient,
GiteaClient, MatrixConfig and RoleMap are removed, with the env
reading for max output tokens; clients take their settings from config
- The live integration tests share a committed agent config,
tests/integration/nisse-test.yaml, aimed at test resources, and one
conftest that loads it and builds clients. NISSE_LIVE_PLANNER_MODEL
becomes its planner role; NISSE_CAPABILITY_MODELS stays as a per-run
switch
- A missing secret now fails the live tests instead of skipping them
- CI passes only the three tokens
- .env.example is secrets only; spec A5 says config comes from the file

- planner.py: LLMPlanningAgent offers exactly two tools, submit_plan
and ask_human, so gating stays structural at the tool layer; no
proceed tool exists. System prompt requires explicit, low-inference
plans because a weaker model executes them (A13)
- Model output is appended to the canonical log as it arrives, before
being interpreted, so a crash mid-planning leaves a truthful
transcript
- A bad turn (prose instead of a tool call, malformed arguments, or a
failed call) retries once, then raises PlanningError; the
orchestrator gates to AWAIT_INPUT rather than inventing a plan
- Orchestrator: appends every operator message, plan_submitted, and
gate_opened to the transcript, so re-planning sees rejection
feedback as conversation rather than out-of-band parameters; pins
the A11 role mapping at task start
- llm.py: non-JSON or non-object tool arguments now raise LLMError
instead of escaping as JSONDecodeError — observed from llama3.2,
which emits truncated argument strings
- Live planning test is opt-in on NISSE_LIVE_PLANNER_MODEL: planning
escalates unconditionally (A12) and the local model does not hold
the tool-call contract, so it awaits a frontier route
