Josh Knapp 7840bddbb4 Sync bundled mission-control to upstream 15fbc94
Pulls in 15 upstream commits since the April 3 bundling snapshot
(msieurthenardier/mission-control). Notable changes:

- agentic-workflow rewritten as the "fast" variant: per-leg design and
  implement, single review and commit across the whole flight
- New Skill-Project Boundary section: skills no longer read or write
  project-owned artifacts by literal heading
- routine-maintenance scoped to post-mission only; adds state-machine
  reachability and cache freshness audits
- Test metrics capture threaded through debrief, maintenance, and flight
- Crew prompts no longer carry skill-required instructions; SKILL.md is
  the protocol
- Worktree git strategy removed; standardized on {target-project}
- Jira artifact template removed upstream

Local URL correction in init-project/README.md preserved
(anthropics/flight-control -> msieurthenardier/mission-control).

Flight Design — Project Crew

Crew definitions for flight specification. The Flight Director designs the technical spec and uses project-side agents to validate against the real codebase.

Crew

Architect

  • Context: {target-project}/
  • Model: Sonnet
  • Role: Reviews flight specs for technical soundness. Validates design decisions, prerequisites, technical approach, and leg breakdown against architecture best practices and actual codebase state. Ensures the flight is buildable and well-structured.
  • Actions: review-flight-design

Interaction Protocol

Design Review

  1. Flight Director creates flight spec and interviews human
  2. Flight Director spawns Architect to review against codebase
  3. Architect evaluates design decisions, prerequisites, approach, leg breakdown
  4. Flight Director incorporates feedback
  5. Max 2 review cycles — escalate to human if unresolved

Template Variables

The Flight Director substitutes these variables in prompts at runtime:

Variable Description
{project-slug} Project identifier from projects.md
{flight-number} Current flight number
{flight-artifact-path} Path to the flight artifact file

Prompts

Architect: Review Flight Design

role: architect
phase: flight-design-review
project: {project-slug}
flight: {flight-number}
action: review-flight-design

Read the flight artifact at {flight-artifact-path}. Cross-reference its design
decisions, prerequisites, technical approach, and leg breakdown against the actual
codebase state and architecture best practices.

Evaluate:
1. Design decisions — are they sound given the real codebase and architecture?
2. Prerequisites — are they accurate? Is anything missing or already done?
3. Technical approach — is it feasible? Does it follow existing patterns?
4. Leg breakdown — are legs well-scoped, properly ordered, with correct dependencies?
5. Codebase state — does the spec account for current working tree, existing tooling,
   and conventions that might affect implementation?
6. Architecture — does the approach maintain or improve system structure?
7. State-machine reachability — for every state, status, or lifecycle value the flight
   introduces or relies on (e.g. "agent_deleted", "draft", "queued"), audit which
   infrastructure layers could foreclose it: DB constraints (FK ON DELETE behaviors,
   NOT NULL, CHECK), application caches and their invalidation rules, API/protocol
   versions, fallback handlers that mask the state, and existing tests that pin
   contradictory behavior. A state that the schema or a cache can silently prevent
   is a design hole, not an implementation detail.
8. Cache freshness contracts — for every cache (in-memory dict, query result cache,
   derived state, frontend session storage) the flight reads from or populates,
   the design must declare source of truth, rebuild trigger (per-call / TTL /
   invalidation event / accepted permanent staleness), maximum staleness, and which
   user actions should invalidate it. Vague answers ("eventually", "on next cycle")
   without a concrete trigger are a flag. Conflating "cached object works" with
   "cached object reflects current source" is a common category error worth catching.
