Remove hard-coded auto-chain dispatch (DEV done→QA, QA fail→DEV) and
replace with a general-purpose projectTick service that scans the queue
and fills free worker slots after every state transition.
- Create lib/services/tick.ts: consolidates shared helpers and core
projectTick() function from duplicated code in work-start/auto-pickup
- work_finish: replaces auto-chain block with projectTick call
- work_start: adds projectTick after dispatch to fill parallel slots
- auto_pickup: delegates per-project loop to projectTick
- Remove autoChain from Project type, migration code, and project-register
- Remove scheduling config dependency from work_finish
- Net -112 lines: simpler, self-healing pipeline

- Add defensive verification in deactivateWorker to catch any accidental
session clearing bugs
- Enhance documentation in activateWorker, deactivateWorker, and
updateWorker to clearly explain session preservation behavior
- Add comprehensive example flow in activateWorker docs showing session
reuse across multiple tasks and tiers
- Add test suite for session persistence (projects.test.ts) to prevent
regression
- Add npm test script to run test suite
This ensures sessions persist per tier after task completion, enabling
session reuse across multiple tasks of the same tier for massive token
savings (~50K per reuse) and context preservation.
Fixes: Bug where sessions could theoretically be accidentally cleared
during worker state updates, though current code was already correct.
This adds defense-in-depth to make the invariant bulletproof.
Replaces single 'workMode' with two distinct settings:
1. Plugin-level 'projectExecution' (parallel | sequential)
- parallel: each project can have active workers independently
- sequential: only one project can have active workers at a time
2. Project-level 'roleExecution' (parallel | sequential)
- parallel: DEV and QA can run simultaneously on same project
- sequential: only one role (DEV or QA) active at a time per project
Changes:
- index.ts: rename workMode → projectExecution in config schema
- projects.ts: add roleExecution field to Project type
- heartbeat_tick: check both levels before picking up tasks
- task_pickup: enforce roleExecution when picking up manually
- project_register: accept roleExecution param (default: parallel)
- devclaw_setup: accept projectExecution param
All defaults remain 'parallel' for backward compatibility.
Adds heartbeat_tick tool that automates task pickup across all projects:
- Runs session health checks (zombie cleanup) before pickups
- Loops over all registered projects
- Picks up tasks by priority (To Improve > To Test > To Do)
- Supports two work modes:
- parallel: each project can have DEV+QA running independently
- sequential: only 1 DEV + 1 QA globally (can be different projects)
- Respects per-project maxDevWorkers/maxQaWorkers settings
- Supports dryRun mode and maxPickups limit
- Context guard: only works from DM/cron, blocks project groups
Also adds:
- workMode config option (parallel | sequential)
- maxDevWorkers/maxQaWorkers fields to Project type
- Replaced raw model aliases with developer tiers (junior, medior, senior, qa) in dispatch and model selection logic.
- Updated `dispatchTask` to resolve models based on tiers and plugin configuration.
- Modified `selectModel` to return tier names instead of model aliases based on task description.
- Implemented migration logic for transitioning from old model aliases to new tier names in worker state.
- Added setup logic for agent creation and model configuration in `setup.ts`.
- Created shared templates for workspace files and instructions for DEV/QA workers.
- Enhanced project registration to scaffold role files based on developer tiers.
- Updated task management tools to reflect changes in model selection and tier assignment.
- Introduced a new `devclaw_setup` tool for agent-driven setup and configuration.
- Updated plugin configuration schema to support model mapping per developer tier.
- Add GitLabProvider class for handling issue operations, label management, and MR checks.
- Implement methods for ensuring labels, creating issues, listing issues by label, and transitioning labels.
- Introduce a provider factory to auto-detect GitLab or GitHub based on the repository URL.
- Create project registration tool to validate repositories, create state labels, and log project entries.
- Enhance queue status and session health tools to support new session management features.
- Update task completion and task creation tools to support auto-chaining and improved session handling.
- Refactor task pickup tool to streamline model selection and session management.
Multi-project dev/qa pipeline orchestration with 4 agent tools:
- task_pickup: atomic task pickup with model selection and session reuse
- task_complete: DEV done, QA pass/fail/refine with label transitions
- queue_status: task queue and worker status across projects
- session_health: zombie detection and state consistency checks
