The clear pattern today is making autonomous agents trustworthy — background runs can no longer claim success early, disappear, or fix code without explicit permission.
First, orchestration correctness. P R 1957 tackles Pianola dispatching without a dedicated tab, where a queued or unreachable worker could release its dependents before it actually ran, hiding provider errors and done-when failures. The fix correlates delivery claims to worker receipts and final captured answers,…
Second, continuity for conversations. P R 1887, merged as commit 42ee0dc after extended review, keeps Relay threads as real background desktop tabs with transcript and provider session intact. Desktop, command line, and plugin continuations now share ownership, with explicit completion and conservative archiving to…
Finally, workflow polish. P R 1951 would let remote agents create pull requests on their S S H host, pushing and running creation remotely with the body piped over standard input to keep it out of logs, leaving local flow unchanged.
