A new package, nisse-ui: a read-only page for studying how the agents
work. For each work item it shows the steps (what people and the
orchestrator said, and each run), each run's turns, and each turn's
request read against the log it was made from:
- each message beside the events it came from, tagged unchanged,
labelled, narrated, shortened (by how much) or a compaction, with what
fitting dropped;
- what is new since the turn before, and where the request first
differs (where prompt reuse had to stop), next to the server's count;
- the reply with its reasoning, and the raw JSON.
Runs going in circles are flagged by nisse_core.loop.circles (repeated
near-identical replies, one correction given again and again, repeated
apologies), a pure function M7.8 can reuse in Driver.run.
In nisse-core:
- render.py: message_indexes(), from the same code render() uses, so
the page's matching can't drift from what was sent.
- calls.py: the record notes when recording began; the reader gains
calls_for(item) and call(id).
- state/readonly.py: opens an agent's SQLite file without creating its
-wal/-shm files (mode=ro alone does, once the writer has closed).
The page reads only through read-only connections, escapes everything,
and sends a Content Security Policy that allows no script. It listens on
127.0.0.1; until M6.6d puts it behind Authelia, reach it over an SSH
tunnel. Jinja2 is its one new dependency, for autoescaping.

A `review` target in the Dockerfile: its own user (nisse-review, uid
10002), git for its clones, state and clones in /var/lib/nisse-review,
configuration at /etc/nisse-review, and only its own agent installed.
release.yml publishes gitea.dongar.net/dev/nisse-review beside nisse-dev,
at the same version. review-bringup.sh builds and runs the image, as
bringup.sh runs nisse-dev's.
The test stage adds an agent package its base lacks, without its
dependencies, since the suite's own code imports every agent's. Without
that, the tests over nisse-dev's image no longer import since
test_review_live arrived. tests/deploy/test_images.py checks the image and
that the test stage leaves what it installed as it was.

A new package over nisse-core: it reviews every ready PR in the
repositories its account can read, and posts one COMMENT review.
- scheduler: each round, open PRs per readable repository (or the
configured repositories); an item per PR, ready unless draft or WIP;
closed with the PR. One review at a time, oldest first.
- reader: the repository at head and base from Gitea archives, unpacked
and read in Python (read_file, list_files, search_code), and its issues;
bound to the item's repository; no git, no shell.
- review: starts from the PR, commits, diff, comments, closed issues, CI;
comment drafts a point on any existing line; post_review posts one
COMMENT review at the head, inline where Gitea takes it, else as links in
the summary. ask_expert; vault and memory (memory/nisse-review).
- L8: posting is an intent; recovery asks Gitea for the marked review and
never posts twice; with Gitea down, the item waits.
- Failures retried, then said on the PR until the next push.
- Startup refuses an account that can push to or administer any repo.
- nisse-core gitea: readable_repositories, open_pull_requests, diff,
commits, archive, issue, search_issues, reviews, post_review; PR fields.
- Bring-up: scripts/review-bringup.sh; nisse-review.example.yaml.
- Tests: unit over a fake Gitea and scripted model; a live test
(NISSE_REVIEW_GITEA_TOKEN) reviews a PR in a fresh test repository.
- Docs: Development Plan M7.3, Tuning Guide (tuning.review.*).

- The Dockerfile's test stage stacks on TEST_BASE: this build's agent by
default, or a published image. It adds only the test tools (uv export
of the dev group into the image's environment), never reinstalling the
agent, so the suite tests the image as published.
- scripts/e2e.sh --image passes NISSE_E2E_MODEL into the container.
- The plan marks M1.5 done: v0.1.0's published image passed the whole e2e
suite (9 of 9, 11m37s), with the release's own tests over it.

- on: release (published), not on any v* tag: only a deliberate release
builds an image; the version is its tag without the v, plus latest.
- docker/login-action, setup-buildx and build-push-action, as the runner
already serves them for inlaw_outlaw; the version as a build argument
and image label.
- Comments on why the registry needs a personal token (the job token's
empty package scope) and that packages belong to the repository owner.

- Dockerfile: built with uv into /opt/nisse (installed, not editable),
run on python:3.12-slim with openssh-client as user nisse; stateless,
with state in a /var/lib/nisse-dev volume, config mounted at
/etc/nisse-dev/nisse-dev.yaml, secrets as environment variables, keys
mounted read-only. 202 MB. Its `test` stage adds the tests and their
tools over the installed package (UV_NO_SYNC, so `uv run` never swaps
in the source tree); the default target is the agent.
- scripts/e2e.sh --image REF runs the suite inside an image's test stage,
on its own sshd.
- CI builds both images on every PR (nothing pushed); release.yml pushes
gitea.dongar.net/dongar/nisse-dev:<tag> and :latest on a v* tag, with
the REGISTRY_TOKEN secret.
- scripts/bringup.sh builds the code under test into an image and runs it
in the systemd unit (root, $E2E mounted at its own path); `plan` prints
what it would run; the build-VM set-aside reads the projects: config.
Checked: the image refuses to start without a config, runs as uid 10001;
one e2e test passed from the test stage (2m45s, $0).
