Company-mode UIs became unusably slow once work items and transcripts
grew. Three presentation-layer fixes, none touching work progression:
- App.tsx: buffer assistant_delta/thinking_delta store writes per task
and flush every 80ms instead of once per token; any non-delta event
for the same task flushes first so draft/clearDraft ordering is
byte-identical. The unconditional per-event setUiTick (whole-app
re-render per websocket event) is now a 300ms trailing throttle.
- PhaserGame: display:none does not stop requestAnimationFrame, so the
office scene kept burning CPU on every other page. The loop now
sleeps when the office page is hidden and wakes (with a parent-bounds
refresh) on return; bridge writes stay synchronous so no state is lost.
- Kanban collab_sync debounce 0.2s -> 1.5s: the broadcaster is a
trailing coalescer, so the final board state still always ships; each
fire is a full-project snapshot build, which at 5/s dominated backend
CPU on large projects. CommsPanel poll 8s -> 30s (comms_state_dirty
push already drives freshness) and its interval no longer pins a
stale onRefresh closure.
Verified: tsc + vite build, App.test.tsx / workItemSessions structural
tests, backend suites (company_review_flow incl. debounce push test,
kanban_push_runtime, actor_runtime_company_mode, task_mode_contract,
work_item_transition — 119 green), and canvas_smoke e2e against a real
server with zero console errors.

Project 3333 forensics: env_engineer sent a blocking question to the CTO,
got a full reply 96s later, and still deadlocked the whole run — the
park half (`_park_for_blocking_comms`) had no wired consumer, so
WAITING_FOR_PEER work items could never be released.
Unpark path (root fix):
- The dispatcher loop now calls `_try_unpark_blocking_comms` each tick
for parked, non-in-flight tasks; blocking replies land as durable
inbox files, so the check is read-only until all replies are present.
- `_try_unpark_blocking_comms` accepts orphaned waits (peer_wait
stripped by the legacy resolver while the work item stayed parked)
and falls back to the park predicate itself: an empty unresolved
blocking outbox releases the task, anything pending keeps it parked.
- `resolve_task_peer_wait` no longer touches comms_blocking waits (it
flipped task.status without the work-item phase and stripped the
peer_wait evidence); `_resume_peer_checkpoint` re-enters the company
runtime for comms/orphaned waits and lets the dispatcher converge.
File tools (defaults changed at their declaration sites, honoring the
"empty tools = everything, explicit list = exactly that" contract):
- corporate builtin groups gain file_write/file_edit for coordination,
QA, and data-acquisition roles.
- all shipped org YAML role tool lists gain the missing
file_write/file_edit entries.
- coordination turn modes no longer strip file_write/file_edit at
runtime — in-context content (briefs, matrices) must be persistable
instead of getting trapped in blocking DM hand-offs.
Also includes the pending office_ui ws_handler change from the working
tree.

Four coordinated fixes for company runs permanently stalling around
tool-approval parks (project 1111 forensics + live reproduction):
- company executor dispatch loop now exits convergently when nothing is
in flight and every remaining task waits on a human: immediate parked
exit when all waiters have pending checkpoints, bounded stall ticks
otherwise. Previously it polled sleep(5) forever, hanging the turn
(observed 7.5h), never answering the user, and holding claims that
blocked any later rescue turn.
- _resume_task_checkpoint routes work-item runtime tasks through the
delegation state machine: release the human wait via the legal
AWAITING_HUMAN -> READY recovery exit, clear stale claims, and hand
the item back to the dispatcher (runtime-snapshot fallback when the
checkpoint payload lacks a plan) instead of a detached single-agent
re-run that never advances the work item phase.
- startup recovery reverse self-heal: an awaiting_human task whose park
checkpoint was already resolved (human answered, resume cut off before
the phase write) is reopened for dispatch instead of being preserved
as a wait nobody can end. Runs before the metadata-plan gate since
modern runs no longer carry the plan in task metadata.
- pause checkpoints record execution_mode from the durable
work_item_runtime marker instead of volatile task metadata, which
degraded to task_mode after a first resume and misrouted the next one.
Validated end-to-end on a live native-agent minimal-org run
(park -> approve -> re-park -> approve -> complete -> deliver, plus
synthesized crash-between-resolve-and-phase-write healed on restart).

Every completed company session's follow-up was answered with the canned
"Legacy company runtime run ... read-only" text (project 000, 2026-07-07).
Root cause: snapshot loaders read task.metadata work_item_runtime_plan as a
serialized run-level CompanyWorkItemRuntimePlan, but work-item tasks persist a
per-item assignment spec (projection_id/turn_type/summary/deliverables/...)
under that key. from_dict on the wrong shape silently yields an empty plan
(no projections, empty metadata), _runtime_uses_multi_team_org returns False,
and the resume path falls through to the legacy read-only branch.
Add is_serialized_company_work_item_runtime_plan (a run-level plan always
serializes with projections + runtime_model; a spec always carries
projection_id) and route all full-plan metadata reads through
serialized_company_plan_from_metadata, which skips wrong-shaped candidates so
the loaders fall back to the sample-metadata-constructed plan instead of an
empty one. Fixes existing DBs read-side; no data migration.
Verified: old path on the 000 shape classifies multi_team_org=False, new path
True; regression tests cover shape discrimination, snapshot classification,
and the follow-up never reporting legacy.

Loguru has no exc_info kwarg: extra kwargs are str.format() arguments, so
logger.error(f"...{e}", exc_info=True) forces .format() on the rendered
message — any error text containing braces (e.g. a JSON error body) raises
KeyError FROM the log call itself, escaping the surrounding except block and
killing the caller (observed: whole agent turns dying in benchmark runs).
The intended traceback was also never logged, since exc_info is not a loguru
feature.
Batch fix of all 143 sites across 11 files:
logger.X(msg, exc_info=True) -> logger.opt(exception=True).X(msg)
(one exc_info=exc site -> opt(exception=exc))
Messages are byte-identical; with the kwarg gone loguru never calls
.format(), so brace-containing f-string messages are inert.
Verified: AST post-conditions per file, py_compile, import smoke of all
modules, behavioral equivalence of the 3 patterns, full unit suite (1549
passed) with a failure set identical to the pristine tree (22 pre-existing,
zero regressions).
