What isn't the dev agent's moves to nisse-core, unchanged in behaviour,
with its tests: canonical, render, render_anthropic, llm, catalog, probe,
context, views, state, reconcile, worker, cancel, dump, transport, matrix,
execution, testing, vault, memory, oplog, envfile and gitea (whole).
- nisse_core.state.StateStore holds the tables every agent has; an
agent's subclass adds its tables (version, migrations), roles and
views. nisse_dev.state.StateStore adds the build VM blocks (v5).
- views.project takes what each role is shown, rather than a fixed table.
- Vault takes the agent's name (agent=), for provenance.
- A test that nisse_core never imports an agent.
- The loop, config, git, delegation, expert, tools and evals stay in
nisse-dev until nisse-ops has a loop to share.
Docs: the Development Plan marks M7.1 done and notes that Phase 6 waits on
the agent host and Terraform; Architecture Part L names the package.

Found live on 2026-10-07 (bring-up on nisse-testing-operator/nisse-bringup,
Opus as driver):
- The driver's prose nudge went into the system prompt, so the retry ended
on the model's own reply. Opus 5.5 refuses that ("does not support
assistant message prefill. The conversation must end with a user
message"). The nudge is now a harness fact in the conversation. The
delegation harness's prose path did the same and is fixed likewise.
- A helper's first request ended with its own delegation_started event,
rendered as an assistant message: every delegation would have failed on
Opus. The helper now sees it as the harness handing over its task.
- model_contract checks that every request ends on the user's side, so
scripted tests catch this from now on (each fix is mutation-checked).
- `status` (and `details`) in an item's thread were taken as replies: they
woke the driver and cancelled a bug's countdown. They now answer at once
and change nothing.
- The driver had no way to answer a remark without changing the item, so it
answered in prose. Every run woken by a message (or a review comment) now
offers `reply`, which answers where asked and returns to the very wait
that was interrupted.
Also: scripts/bringup-repo.sh makes the bring-up's test repository
(make_repo/delete_repo, split out of fresh_repo), and made repositories get
the agent's labels (bug, discuss, design).
Tests: test_loop_live_fixes.py (one per finding); the walk sends `status`
into threads (status_changes_nothing) and its scripted driver sometimes
answers remarks with reply.
