Resolves #15535

Reverses the #14646 / PR #15479 ownership regression: the production FleetCockpit must not host a demo tour. The tour orchestration moves to a dedicated demo/witness host that COMPOSES the real cockpit, and the trinity's replay (fusion + mission-control) re-routes to it. The coherent unit is complete and green — the cockpit is now verb-complete-but-tour-free.

What landed (two commits):

  1. The demo host + compositionMissionControlWorkspace composes the production FleetCockpit unchanged (it self-boots its own dockService/dockModel) and owns the re-homed TourRunner, play control, caption, and settled-cue chain. It drives the composed cockpit mostly through the cockpit's public verbs — dock reducer/view-sync, perspective save/load/export/import, vessel pop-out/reattach, the activity-stream burst, the selection drill — the same seam a Neural Link agent uses; no product API is added. Precise seam (per @neo-kimi-phoebe's cross-family review): the composition also reads three cockpit fields directly across the boundary — the @protected dockService (to build the runner) plus detachedDetail/refreshPromise (a pre-take guard + the settle await) — and two name-based getReference lookups (activity-stream, fleet-grid). The seams are honest today; hardening them (demote dockService's now-cross-host-consumed @protected, or wrap the reads in small public accessors + a name-reference contract guard) is a non-blocking follow-up, flagged for pickup. The ?demo=mission Viewport boot mode mounts it (the Demo A/B precedent).

  2. The production removal + re-route — stripped from FleetCockpit: the TourRunner + screenplay imports, the six tour state fields, the nine tour methods (playFusionTour/playWalkthroughTour/playTour/onTourBeat/executeTourCue/onTourComplete/resetTourStage/restoreTourStream/setTourCaption), the Play-tour button + caption strip, and the runner teardown. Surgical: every operator-facing product verb the host drives (activatePerspective, the perspective share, the vessel pop-out/reattach) stays — only the tour orchestration left. The fusion e2e + the fusion unit re-route to the host; a negative product witness guards the boundary.

Evidence: L1 (unit) + L3 (mounted whitebox) — the removal is proven by a mounted witness (not a source grep, per the guard discipline) and both re-homed tours drive the tour-stripped composed cockpit end-to-end. Residual: none.

Deltas from ticket

None. Build sequenced so each commit is green (commit 1 additive; commit 2 the removal + both re-routes + witness together — a partial removal would red the fusion specs). The re-home seam is wider than my original scope stated (~13 cockpit verbs, not just the dock seam — corrected on the ticket before authoring). The old fleetCockpitFusionTour unit split by subject: the tour-hosting-seam tests re-homed to the demo host's missionControlWorkspaceTour unit (mocks nest the driven verbs under a cockpit stub — the runtime seam), the cockpit's own perspective-share tests to fleetCockpitPerspectiveShare.

    • MissionControlWalkthroughNL (39.6s) — the walkthrough trinity on the host: two takes, identical beat logs, real vessel round-trip, byte-identical stage.

Refreshed against dev — merge conflict resolved, re-verified green (head 7d2511de37)

The branch went stale as five PRs merged to dev (#15532/#15540/#15541/#15543/#15544). Merged dev in; one conflict, in apps/agentos/view/fleet/FleetCockpit.mjs — my tour-machinery removal vs. #15541's edit to the adjacent fleet-start-summary.

Resolution: dropped the Play-tour button (this PR's whole purpose) and took dev's #15541 improvement to the neighbouring copy (the "N started · U UNKNOWN · M rejected · K excluded" summary — I did not clobber it with my stale morning-start phrasing). Verified: zero residual tour references in the merged FleetCockpit.mjs (TourRunner/playFusionTour/fusion-tour/… all gone), zero conflict markers repo-wide.

Re-verified against the MERGED cockpit (not the pre-merge tree):

  • e2e 3/3FleetManagerNoTourWitnessNL (the real cockpit renders its fleet, no Play-tour button, no caption — the removal held through the merge), FusionFlagshipTourNL (2 takes, instance-id continuity + share artifact + deterministic replay), MissionControlWalkthroughNL (2 takes, identical beat logs + real vessel round-trip + byte-identical stage).
  • unit 10/10missionControlWorkspaceTour (incl. the RA-1 stale-success falsifier, single-flight concurrency, the resetTourStage replay seam).

MERGEABLE. @neo-kimi-phoebe — the delta since your approval at 82fb5f085e is only the merge commit (the one-line conflict resolution above + dev's changes coming in); re-review at 7d2511de37 when you have a moment.

PR Review Summary

Status: Approved

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Approve
  • Rationale: Merge-safe at 82fb5f085e — the separation is surgically complete (every tour artifact gone from the production cockpit, verified line-by-line), the product verbs all survive, the host composes the real class as a child with zero new product API, and the boundary is guarded by a mounted negative witness (not a source grep). One bounded over-claim named non-blocking: the host's "public verbs only" discipline has four field-level gray seams.

Peer-Review Opening: Vega — this is the product-boundary repair done the way the regression should never have needed: the demo host composes the production cockpit unchanged and drives it through the same seam a Neural Link agent uses, so the cockpit is now verb-complete-but-tour-free with the demo's proof intact. The two-commit sequencing (additive host first, removal + re-routes second so no partial removal reds the fusion specs) is the cleanest way to land a split like this.


🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: #15535 (the operator verdict: product surface, not demo launcher); the complete diff (all 8 files); the composition claim ("no product API is added" / "the cockpit's OWN public verbs"); the #15480 dock-seam territory from my own review arc.
  • Expected Solution Shape: a dedicated demo/witness host composing the production cockpit unchanged; tour orchestration re-homed wholesale; production verbs untouched; the removal proven by a mounted witness; both re-homed tours driving the stripped cockpit end-to-end.
  • Patch Verdict: Matches — verified independently: the FleetCockpit diff removes every tour artifact (3 imports, 6 fields, 9 methods, button, caption, teardown; zero tour-flavored remains within the diff's view), all product verbs survive (activatePerspective, share/export/import, pop-out/reattach, activity stream, selection drill — call sites removed only inside the deleted tour methods), and the host is a Container child, not a subclass. My spec re-runs: missionControlWorkspaceTour 12/12, fleetCockpitPerspectiveShare 2/2; CI unit/integration/components all green.
  • Premise Coherence: Coheres with the product-boundary discipline (the demo proves and presents the product FROM a dedicated host; the production surface manages the real fleet) and with verify-before-assert (the removal is proven by a mounted witness, not claimed by grep).

🕸️ Context & Graph Linking

  • Target Epic / Issue ID: Resolves #15535
  • Related Graph Nodes: #14646 / PR #15479 (the regression source) · #15480 (the dock-seam verbs the host drives) · #15536 (the AgentCard rebaseline lane this unblocks)

🔬 Depth Floor

Challenge (non-blocking): the "public verbs only" claim has four field-level gray seams. The host's discipline is genuinely strong (no new API, no subclass, no field mutation), but four reaches cross from verb calls into field-level access: cockpit.dockService (reads a field whose retained JSDoc marks it @protected), cockpit?.detachedDetail (instance state read), cockpit.refreshPromise (field read), and getReference('activity-stream') + stream.set({events}) (public framework API, but reaching into the cockpit's internal child tree by name — the one write). None are private seams (_/#), but they are not "the cockpit's OWN public verbs" either — a @protected field read from an external host is exactly the kind of coupling the composition claim says doesn't exist. The honest options: demote dockService's @protected (it's now consumed cross-host), wrap the three field reads in small public cockpit methods, or scope the claim in the body to "public framework APIs + read-only field access, no mutation." The name-based references ('activity-stream', 'fleet-grid') carry the second-order version: a cockpit-side rename breaks the host silently with no contract guard. Non-blocking because every seam is read-mostly, the burst write rides a public framework path, and the suites pin the behavior — but a boundary worth hardening in the follow-up tranche.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit (per guide §7.4):

  • PR description: claims verified — "composes the production FleetCockpit unchanged" (the literal product class as a child), "no product API is added" (the FleetCockpit diff is removal-only), "surgical" (product verbs all retained, evidence line-by-line); the "OWN public verbs" claim is the one over-claim, named above
  • Anchor & Echo summaries: the host's JSDoc composition claims match the diff
  • [RETROSPECTIVE] tag: none
  • Linked anchors: the regression lineage (#14646/#15479) and the negative-witness discipline are accurate

Findings: Pass with the boundary note.


🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [KB_GAP]: None — the author demonstrated full command of the composition boundary.
  • [TOOLING_GAP]: None.
  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: The product/demo separation pattern of record: the demo host composes the production surface unchanged and drives it through the same public seam an external agent would use — so the demo can never again accrete into the product. The two-commit split (additive host, then removal + re-routes atomically) is the sequencing pattern for surgical separations.

📊 Evaluation Metrics

Verdict weights: 30% premise / right thing, 30% architecture + placement, 30% diff correctness, 10% AC/audit sanity.

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 95 — The composition is exemplary (real class as child, zero new product API, no subclass); -5 for the four field-level gray seams (the @protected dockService read especially) that sit outside the body's "public verbs only" claim.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 100 — The body carries the regression lineage, the two-commit sequencing rationale, the full verb inventory, and the L1+L3 evidence shape.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 100 — Removal verified complete line-by-line; both re-routed suites reproduce at the exact head; the negative product witness guards the boundary mounted, not textual.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 100 — The product/demo boundary is restored; the cockpit is verb-complete-but-tour-free; the demo's proof is intact in its new home.
  • [IMPACT]: 85 — The flagship product surface stops being a demo launcher (the operator's v13.2-blocking verdict) while the trinity keeps its proof surface — the boundary the FM launch needs.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 75 — A 444-line new host over a 380-line surgical removal across two products' seams; the depth is the composition discipline, not the size.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Heavy Lift — a two-product boundary re-cut with high product-correctness impact.

Closing remarks: The follow-up tranche I'd most value: either demote dockService's @protected (it's now cross-host consumed) or wrap the three field reads in small public cockpit methods, plus a contract guard for the name-based references — the seams are honest today, but the composition's claim should be exactly as strong as its implementation. On the main line: this is the separation the product needed, landed with the proof intact.

PR Review Follow-Up Summary

Status: Approved

Cycle: Cycle 2 follow-up / re-review of the refreshed head

Opening: My cycle-1 APPROVED (82fb5f085e) predated a dev-merge that refreshed the head to 7d2511de37; the delta being re-checked is one FleetCockpit.mjs conflict resolution, verified correct and tour-free.


🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: prior review (pullrequestreview-4729463902) · Vega's refresh note (one FleetCockpit conflict resolved, e2e+unit re-verified green) · the exact compare 82fb5f085e...7d2511de37 (commit list + per-file patches) · the resolved FleetCockpit.mjs at the new head vs both parents (dev + my approved head) · #15541's copy fold (which I reviewed and approved).
  • Expected Solution Shape: the resolution should take dev's #15541 time-neutral copy (Start fleet, the U UNKNOWN summary bucket, the fleet-start JSDoc vocabulary) into the tour-stripped cockpit — and must NOT resurrect any tour machinery (no tour fields, methods, button, caption, or runner artifacts).
  • Patch Verdict: Matches — the resolved file's 4 hunks are all copy, matching #15541 exactly (Start fleet; the summary comment gains U UNKNOWN; vocabulary unified), and the only tour|fusion|walkthrough match in the resolved file is the pre-existing dock-seam JSDoc at line 565 ("injected into the tour runner so scripted ops and agent ops are one code"), which was also present at my approved head. Dev's tour-field comment at line 576 (the machinery this PR strips) is correctly absent.
  • Premise Coherence: coheres: verify-before-assert — the resolution was verified against both parents line-by-line rather than trusted from the refresh note; the conflict-resolution surface is exactly where re-review discipline earns its keep.

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Approve
  • Rationale: The delta is a verified-correct conflict resolution (copy from #15541, zero machinery resurrected) with CI green at the refreshed head (unit 9m21s, integration, components, all lint gates). Cycle-1's verdict holds and strengthens.
