feat: real auto-status from the task list; drop 'on main' filler (0.16.0)#83
Merged
Conversation
… (0.16.0)
Three agents all showing "on main" proved the mechanical branch default
was noise, not signal: it looks like a status without being one. Fixed
at the source — the status now comes from the agent's OWN work:
- TaskCreated/TaskCompleted hooks mirror the task subject into the bus
status ("implement the auth endpoints", "done: review PR 5920") — real,
self-authored, self-updating, zero extra effort. This is the "make it
better" answer: the board reflects what agents are actually doing.
- Branch default removed entirely; a session with no task and no
declaration renders honestly ("— no task set"), never a fake status.
- Heartbeats stay statusless (Bus preserves whatever the task list or an
explicit declaration set). Nudge fires only when truly statusless.
- Skill: bus activity + others' statuses are "a teammate talking" — act
in the same turn when work overlaps/unblocks/duplicates, tell the user.
(Acting is model judgment; the wording is now imperative, not passing.)
Test: TaskCreated sets the subject as status, TaskCompleted shows
"done: …", no-subject/off-bus is silent.

'on main' ×3 was filler, not status. Now the bus status mirrors the agent's own TaskCreate/TaskCompleted subject (real, self-updating, free); branch default removed; undeclared renders honestly ('— no task set'); skill pushes acting on others' statuses like a teammate talking. Tested.
