- Questions never change state (L5, #77): a message ending in "?" to a
waiting project item starts a question run (reply and look-only tools,
an instruction to change nothing), and the item goes back to the very
wait it was in: a restatement up stays up and a go binds to it; the
agent's own question stays open.
- Explanations: a restatement gives its reasons and the main alternative;
a revision says what changed (restate(changed), sent back without it);
a milestone's summary says what was done, verified and left open.
- Progress in prose (#42): the driver's and a helper's own words for a
turn are posted, trimmed, at most once a minute per item; `details`
shows the last tool calls; a message arriving mid-run is acknowledged at
once ("Noted; ...").
- CI: the e2e job's comments and the plan no longer claim a newer push
cancels the run it supersedes (Gitea here doesn't); the concurrency
block goes.
Tests: conversation unit tests (questions in a go-ahead and an answer wait,
an unanswerable question, revisions, progress rate and trimming, details,
mid-run notes), the helper's progress, the walk asking questions in every
state with a questions_change_nothing property (routing questions the old
way fails 32 of 48 seeds), and an e2e question while a restatement is up.
