Cause: no TUIOS pane existed, so the `g`-key lazygit pane was unreachable — chicken-and-egg: commit required lazygit, lazygit required a pane, panes only exist after a project is created. + +Root explanation captured in answer: git work (commit, `.git`, worktrees, agent) must happen on the machine that owns the folder (`.13` / nixos-desktop), because `office` ran there over ssh. Worktree policy is fixed at project creation and a worktree needs a commit to cut from, so the sequence is necessarily commit-first, create-second. + +Fix implemented in `bin/office` (new commit `c53f37d`, message: "office: open a lazygit session on the machine that owns the folder, and stop overwriting a working wrapper"). New function `open_git_session(folder, session, opts)` creates a TUIOS session named `-git` already running `lazygit` with cwd = the folder, and prints machine-correct instructions: `tuios attach --host -git` when the user is on another machine, plain `tuios attach -git` when local, plus `tuios kill-session -git` and the repeat command. + +Verified end-to-end: session opened, pane cwd = `/tmp/gitsess5`, running process = `lazygit`; attach line includes `--host` when remote, omits when local. Test sessions `gitsess4-git`, `gitsess5-git`, `ghost-git` were created and killed during validation. + +Two bugs found: (1) the pushed copy sent from `.27` to `.13` overwrote `~/.local/bin/office` on `.13`, so `.13`'s own command ran `.27`'s older copy (this masked the first fix attempt); wrapper is now only written when no working one exists. (2) `.13` wrapper restored to point at the repo (`exec /home/sam/paseo/projects/paperclip-harness/bin/office "$@"`) and the copy at `~/.local/share/paperclip-harness/bin/office` refreshed from the repo so both agree (binary md5 `4a0d29ab2302aecbb5d2b2330d2291e0` at time of check). + +Delivery: pushed to `main` (`fd71837..c53f37d`), copies updated on `.13`, `.27`, `.51`. + +User's staged folder `/home/sam/TEST-BETA` remains an uncommitted repo; prescribed recovery: re-run `office ~/TEST-BETA --new "TEST-BETA" --session TEST-BETA --host nixos-desktop`, attach to `TEST-BETA-git`, stage/commit, re-run to create worktrees. + +## Evidence + +- Confidence: 90% +- Reason: Dense, evidence-backed discovery+implementation snapshot from the final answer and tool outputs. + +## Related + +- [[packs/paperclip-harness/00-system/pi-agent/memory-manifest|Memory Manifest]] + +## Related learned memories + +- observation: [[packs/paperclip-harness/60-observations/tmp-repository-structure-and-configuration-patterns|paperclip-harness office: commit-first bootstrap gap and host-aware lazygit session]] +- runbook: [[packs/paperclip-harness/70-runbooks/tmp-deployment-operations|Create a paperclip-harness project when the folder is staged but uncommitted]] +- action: [[packs/paperclip-harness/40-actions/2026-11-10-wrote-docs-ui-layout-md-and-three-live-layout-mockups|paperclip-harness c53f37d: lazygit bootstrap session on folder-owning host; wrapper overwrite fixed]] +- session: [[packs/paperclip-harness/80-sessions/paperclip-harness-lazygit-bootstrap-session-fix-and-cross-ma|paperclip-harness: lazygit bootstrap session fix and cross-machine wrapper bugs]] +- session: [[packs/paperclip-harness/80-sessions/rich-discovery-with-2026-11-12-23-54-31|Rich discovery: with 2026-11-12 23:54:31]] +- context: [[packs/paperclip-harness/20-context/with|with]] diff --git a/.pi/memory-vault/packs/paperclip-harness/80-sessions/rich-discovery-with-2026-11-12-23-54-31.md b/.pi/memory-vault/packs/paperclip-harness/80-sessions/rich-discovery-with-2026-11-12-23-54-31.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d2debfe --- /dev/null +++ b/.pi/memory-vault/packs/paperclip-harness/80-sessions/rich-discovery-with-2026-11-12-23-54-31.md @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +--- +type: session +id: session.paperclip-harness.rich-discovery-with-2026-11-12-23-54-31 +title: Rich discovery: with 2026-11-12 23:54:31 +status: active +source_of_truth: false +freshness: current +last_reviewed: 2026-11-12 +tags: + - pack/paperclip-harness + - agent-memory/session + - autolearn + - rich-discovery + - repo/with +--- + +# Rich discovery: with 2026-11-12 23:54:31 + +Sanitized rich discovery snapshot captured automatically from the completed turn. + + +## Source paths observed + +- `home/sam/.local/share/paperclip-harness/bin/office` +- `home/sam/paseo/projects/paperclip-harness/bin/office` +- `home/sam/TEST-BETA` +- `.local/bin/office` +- `.local/share/paperclip-harness/bin` + +## Final answer snapshot + +You followed the instructions correctly.
