+# CHANGELOG
+
+## v0.4.0
+
+### Security
+
+- **`validateDocmapPath`: add `EvalSymlinks` to close directory-symlink bypass** ([#150](https://gitea.weiker.me/rodin/review-bot/issues/150)): The previous implementation used `os.Lstat` which only avoids following the *final* path component. An intermediate directory symlink (e.g. `.review-bot/` committed as a symlink to a directory outside the repo) would pass the path-confinement check because the textual path appeared within the repo root. `filepath.EvalSymlinks` is now called first, resolving all symlink components before the `filepath.Rel` confinement check. In-repo symlinks whose resolved targets also reside within the repo root are now allowed; out-of-repo targets are rejected by the confinement check.
+- **`doc-map-trusted-ref`: fetch doc-map config from trusted VCS ref** ([#143](https://gitea.weiker.me/rodin/review-bot/issues/143)): New `--doc-map-trusted-ref` flag / `DOC_MAP_TRUSTED_REF` env var. When set, the doc-map YAML config is fetched from the specified VCS ref (e.g. `main`) via API instead of being read from the local workspace (the PR branch checkout). This prevents a malicious PR from modifying `.review-bot/doc-map.yml` to inject arbitrary design docs into the LLM prompt. When unset, the local workspace is used with a security warning in the logs.
+
+### Tests
+
+- **`TestValidateDocmapPath_DirSymlinkBypass`**: verifies that a directory symlink inside the repo pointing outside cannot be used to bypass path confinement ([#150](https://gitea.weiker.me/rodin/review-bot/issues/150)).
+
+### Added
+
+- **`doc-map-trusted-ref` input** (`--doc-map-trusted-ref` flag / `DOC_MAP_TRUSTED_REF` env var): Git ref (branch, tag, or SHA) from which to fetch the doc-map config via VCS API. Recommended for all `doc-map` users. Example: `doc-map-trusted-ref: main`. ([#143](https://gitea.weiker.me/rodin/review-bot/issues/143))
+
+- **`doc-map` input** (`--doc-map` flag / `DOC_MAP_FILE` env var): Path to a YAML file mapping source path globs to governing design docs. review-bot intersects the map with changed PR paths and injects matching docs into the system prompt under a `## Design Documents` heading. ([#137](https://gitea.weiker.me/rodin/review-bot/issues/137))
+- **`doc-map-max-bytes` input** (`--doc-map-max-bytes` flag / `DOC_MAP_MAX_BYTES` env var): Cap on total injected design doc content in bytes. Default: 102400 (100 KB). Prevents accidental context overflow when a PR touches many modules.
+- **`DesignDocs` budget section**: Design docs are included in the context budget and trimmed after conventions, before file context, if the total exceeds the model's context limit.
+
+### Doc-map config format
+
+```yaml
+mappings:
+  - paths:
+      - "lib/gargoyle/engine/signal_risk/**"
+    docs:
+      - docs/domain/contexts/risk/risk-controls.md
+  - paths:
+      - "lib/gargoyle/trading/**"
+    docs:
+      - docs/domain/contexts/trading/
+```
+
+- `paths` — glob patterns (including `**`) matched against changed file paths in the PR
+- `docs` — local file paths or directories (all `.md` files under a directory) to inject
+- Multiple mappings can reference the same doc; docs are deduplicated
+- Missing doc files: warn and skip (review continues without them)
+- No matching paths: no docs injected, review runs normally
+- Absolute paths and path traversal (`..` segments) in doc paths are rejected
+
+### Security
+
+- **Path traversal guard**: doc paths from the YAML config are validated to reject absolute paths and `..` segments before VCS API calls
+- **Prompt injection guard**: design doc content is injected with an explicit instruction to treat it as reference data and not follow any instructions it may contain
+
+## v0.3.2
+
+- Previous releases tracked in Gitea release notes.

+
+## Code Coverage Analysis
+
+| Package | Coverage | Target | Status |
+|---------|----------|--------|--------|
+| `budget` | 91.8% | >80% | ✅ Excellent |
+| `review` | 91.5% | >80% | ✅ Excellent |
+| `llm` | 81.3% | >80% | ✅ Good |
+| `gitea` | 83.8% | >80% | ✅ Good |
+| `github` | 85.6% | >80% | ✅ Good |
+| `internal/netutil` | 90.0% | >80% | ✅ Good |
+| `cmd/review-bot` | 36.8% | >60% | ⚠️ Below target |
+| **Total** | **76.7%** | >70% | ✅ Good |
+
+**Recommendation:** `cmd/review-bot` coverage remains challenging due to CLI integration nature. Priority: integration tests, not unit coverage expansion.
+
+## Repository Hygiene
+
+✅ **All stale branches cleaned:**
+- issue-137, issue-141, issue-143, issue-146, issue-150 (dev branches)
+- origin-main, pr-151-merge, pr-152-merge, pr-155-merge, test-146 (merge artifacts)
+
+✅ **Working tree:** Pristine (no uncommitted changes)  
+✅ **Remote sync:** On-time with origin/main (1f58c65)

+# Plan: validate-docmap subcommand (Issue #141)
+
+## Problem
+
+CI has no way to verify that `doc-map.yml` is kept up to date. When a developer adds a new
+module/directory, they may forget to add a `paths:` entry. When a design doc is deleted or
+moved, the `docs:` entry becomes stale. Both failures are silent — the AI reviewer just gets
+no docs injected, and nobody notices.
+
+This is a **pure static check**: no AI, no VCS API. Just YAML parsing + glob matching + `os.Stat`.
+
+## Constraints
+
+- No external API calls or AI involvement
+- Must compose with `git diff --name-only` output via stdin (standard CI pattern)
+- Reuse existing `ParseDocMapConfig` from `review/docmap.go`
+- Glob matching logic must also reuse (or expose) existing `globMatch`/`mappingMatches`
+- Follow the `validate-url` subcommand pattern exactly
+- Both checks must always run — report all failures, not just the first
+- `outWriter`/`errWriter` vars must be respected for testability
+
+## Proposed Approach
+
+### 1. Export a glob-coverage helper from `review/docmap.go`
+
+Add one new exported function:
+
+```go
+// FileCoveredByDocMap returns true if any paths: glob in cfg matches the given file.
+func FileCoveredByDocMap(cfg *DocMapConfig, file string) bool
+```
+
+This is a thin wrapper over the existing unexported `mappingMatches`. It lets the `cmd/` layer
+call into the review package without duplicating glob logic.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Duplicate the loop in `cmd/`. Rejected — duplication of non-trivial
+glob matching is a maintenance hazard. Exporting one function is cleaner.
+
+### 2. New file: `cmd/review-bot/validatedocmap.go`
+
+Implements `runValidateDocmap(args []string) int` following the `validateurl.go` pattern.
+
+```
+Flag parsing (use flag.NewFlagSet — NOT global flag, to avoid polluting main.go's flag state):
+  --docmap     (required) path to YAML file
+  --repo-root  (optional, default ".") base for resolving docs: paths
+
+Step 1: Parse flags. Validate --docmap is set. Exit 2 on error.
+Step 2: ParseDocMapConfig(docmapPath)  → exit 2 on parse error
+Step 3: Read stdin lines → changedFiles []string
+Step 4: Coverage check — for each file in changedFiles:
+          if !FileCoveredByDocMap(cfg, file) → record as uncovered
+Step 5: Stale-docs check — for each unique docs: entry across all mappings:
+          if os.Stat(filepath.Join(repoRoot, docPath)) fails → record as stale
+Step 6: If any uncovered or stale entries → print ERROR sections → return 1
+        Else → print "OK" → return 0
+```
+
+Exit codes (parallel to `validate-url`):
+- `0` — clean
+- `1` — coverage or stale-doc failures
+- `2` — usage error, missing flag, or YAML parse error
+
+### 3. Wire into `main.go`
+
+Add `case "validate-docmap":` to the existing `os.Args[1]` switch.
+
+### 4. Tests: `cmd/review-bot/validatedocmap_test.go`
+
+Test table covering:
+| Case | stdin | docmap | repo-root | want exit |
+|------|-------|--------|-----------|-----------|
+| clean | covered file | valid docmap | docs exist | 0 |
+| uncovered file | uncovered file | valid docmap | docs exist | 1 |
+| stale doc | covered file | stale docs: | missing path | 1 |
+| both failures | uncovered + stale | | | 1 |
+| empty stdin | (empty) | valid docmap | docs exist | 0 |
+| missing --docmap flag | | | | 2 |
+| bad YAML | | invalid YAML | | 2 |
+
+Use `os.MkdirTemp` + `os.WriteFile` to create real temp directories for the stale-docs check.
+
+### 5. README update
+
+Add a subsection under the `validate-url` section showing the `validate-docmap` invocation.
+
+## State/Data Model
+
+No persistent state. All inputs are flags + stdin + local filesystem.
+
+## Error Cases
+
+| Scenario | Behavior |
+|----------|----------|
+| `--docmap` flag missing | Print usage, exit 2 |
+| YAML parse fails | Print error message, exit 2 |
+| stdin read error | Print error, exit 2 |
+| `--repo-root` does not exist | Individual docs: entries will fail Stat; logged per-path, exit 1 |
+| changed file is empty string (blank line) | Skip (trim + ignore empty) |
+
+## Edge Cases
+
+- Blank lines in stdin input (from git diff with trailing newline) → trim and skip
+- Duplicate `docs:` entries across multiple mappings → deduplicate before checking existence
+- `docs:` entry that is a directory (ends with `/`) → `os.Stat` the path; if it exists it's fine
+- `--repo-root` with trailing slash → use `filepath.Join` which normalizes it
+- Changed files with `../` or absolute paths → check only (no traversal needed here since we're just calling `FileCoveredByDocMap`, which is pure string matching)
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+- Unit tests with real temp files for stale-doc check (no mocking needed for `os.Stat`)
+- `outWriter`/`errWriter` capture pattern (same as `validateurl_test.go`)
+- Table-driven tests
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **stdin vs `--files` flag**: Using stdin matches the standard CI pipe idiom and avoids shell
+  quoting issues with many files. Confirmed by Aaron's clarification.
+- **Empty stdin coverage**: Aaron said empty stdin = no coverage failures. This means
+  "no changed files, no problem" — vacuously true. Makes sense for `git diff` on unchanged branches.
+- **Directory docs: entries**: `os.Stat` is sufficient — if the directory exists, it's valid.
+  We don't recursively verify it has `.md` files. Kept simple.
+- **`--repo-root` vs always cwd**: Default to cwd but allow override. This makes the command
+  usable from CI scripts that `cd` to a different directory.
+
+## Completion Checklist (generated for this task)
+
+1. `FileCoveredByDocMap` exported and covers the all-mappings, any-glob-matches logic correctly?
+2. `runValidateDocmap` follows `runValidateURL` exactly: flag parse → validate → work → exit code?
+3. Both checks always run (no early exit after first failure section)?
+4. Empty stdin treated as clean (exit 0, no coverage errors)?
+5. All `docs:` entries deduplicated before stale check?
+6. `outWriter`/`errWriter` used (not `fmt.Println` directly), so tests can capture output?
+7. `case "validate-docmap":` added to `main.go` dispatch switch?
+8. Tests cover all 7 cases in the table above?
+9. README updated with usage example?
+10. `go test ./...` passes with no new failures?
+
+## Implementation Phases
+
+### Phase 1: Export helper in `review/docmap.go`
+- Add `FileCoveredByDocMap(cfg *DocMapConfig, file string) bool`
+- Add test in `review/docmap_test.go`
+
+### Phase 2: `cmd/review-bot/validatedocmap.go`
+- Full `runValidateDocmap` implementation
+
+### Phase 3: Wire into `main.go` + tests
+- `case "validate-docmap":` dispatch
+- `validatedocmap_test.go` with full table
+
+### Phase 4: README + final
+- Update README
+- `go test ./...`

+# PLAN-143: Load doc-map config from trusted (default) branch
+
+**Issue:** #143  
+**Status:** Planning  
+**Branch:** TBD (issue-143)
+
+---
+
+## Problem Statement
+
+The `--doc-map` flag reads the doc-map YAML config from the local `GITHUB_WORKSPACE` checkout, which is the **PR branch** in CI. A malicious PR author can:
+
+1. Modify `.review-bot/doc-map.yml` in their branch to map any path glob to sensitive docs  
+2. review-bot reads the PR-branch doc-map config  
+3. Docs from the **default branch** are fetched and injected into the LLM prompt  
+4. Via prompt injection in those docs, the attacker could exfiltrate content  
+
+The config is the trust boundary. The *data* fetched (design docs) already comes from the default branch via VCS API. The *config* is what needs to be pinned to the default branch.
+
+## Constraints
+
+- Must not break existing callers (backward compatibility)
+- Should have a clearly named flag/env var
+- Fall back to local workspace if no trusted ref configured (for users not yet migrated)
+- The gargoyle workflow (.github/workflows/review.yml) will need updating
+
+## Proposed Approach
+
+### Option A: Fetch via VCS API from default branch (preferred)
+
+Add a new flag `--doc-map-trusted-ref` (default: `""` = use local workspace).
+
+When `--doc-map-trusted-ref` is set:
+1. Use the VCS API to fetch the file at `--doc-map` path from the specified ref  
+2. Parse the fetched content as YAML  
+3. Use this config (not the local workspace copy)
+
+When `--doc-map-trusted-ref` is empty:
+- Current behavior (local workspace) with a deprecation warning
+
+This follows the same pattern as `patterns-repo` which fetches from VCS.
+
+### Option B: Auto-detect and always use default branch
+
+Always fetch doc-map from the default branch via VCS API, ignoring local workspace.
+Simpler API but breaks local testing (where there's no VCS to fetch from).
+
+### Recommendation
+
+Option A — explicit `--doc-map-trusted-ref` flag. The gargoyle workflow would set:
+```yaml
+doc-map-trusted-ref: "main"
+```
+
+This is explicit and allows local testing to continue using local workspace.
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+### Phase 1: VCS API fetch for doc-map config
+
+**Files to change:**
+- `cmd/review-bot/main.go` — add `--doc-map-trusted-ref` flag, conditional fetch logic
+- `review/docmap.go` — add `FetchDocMapConfig(vcs, owner, repo, ref, path string) (*DocMapConfig, error)`
+- `action.yml` — add `doc-map-trusted-ref` input
+- `README.md` — document new flag
+
+**Logic:**
+```go
+if *docMapTrustedRef != "" {
+    // Fetch from VCS (trusted branch) — secure
+    content, err := vcs.GetFileContent(ctx, owner, repoName, *docMapTrustedRef, resolvedDocMap)
+    ...
+    docMapCfg, err = review.ParseDocMapConfigContent(content)
+} else {
+    // Local workspace (backward compat with deprecation warning)
+    slog.Warn("doc-map loaded from local workspace (PR branch) — consider --doc-map-trusted-ref for security")
+    docMapCfg, err = review.ParseDocMapConfig(resolvedDocMap)
+}
+```
+
+### Phase 2: Tests
+
+- `TestFetchDocMapConfig_Success`: mock VCS returns valid YAML → parses correctly
+- `TestFetchDocMapConfig_NotFound`: VCS returns 404 → clear error
+- `TestMainSubprocess_DocMapTrustedRef`: subprocess test for the new flag
+
+### Phase 3: Gargoyle workflow update
+
+Update `.github/workflows/review.yml` in gargoyle to add `doc-map-trusted-ref: main`.
+
+## State/Data Model
+
+New flag: `--doc-map-trusted-ref` / `DOC_MAP_TRUSTED_REF` env var  
+- Type: string  
+- Default: `""` (local workspace)  
+- Example value: `"main"`, `"master"`, `HEAD`  
+
+## Error Cases
+
+- VCS returns 404 for doc-map path at trusted ref → error + exit (not silent)
+- VCS returns 404 but local copy exists → do NOT fall back (could be attack path)
+- Parse error on fetched content → error + exit
+
+## Edge Cases
+
+- What if the doc-map doesn't exist at the trusted ref? → log error, exit (don't silently continue)
+- What if trusted-ref is a commit SHA? → should work via VCS GetFileContent
+- What if the user sets trusted-ref to the PR branch? → Works, but defeats the purpose. Not our problem to prevent.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- Should we warn when `--doc-map` is set without `--doc-map-trusted-ref`? → Yes, deprecation warning pointing to docs
+- Should we add `--doc-map-trusted-ref` to the `validate-docmap` subcommand? → No, that subcommand operates on local files only; it's a developer tool
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] `--doc-map-trusted-ref` flag added to `action.yml` and `cmd/review-bot/main.go`
+- [ ] When set, doc-map config fetched from VCS at the specified ref (not local workspace)
+- [ ] When unset, local workspace used with deprecation warning in logs
+- [ ] 404 from VCS is a hard error (no silent fallback to local copy)
+- [ ] Tests cover: fetch success, fetch 404, parse error
+- [ ] Gargoyle `.github/workflows/review.yml` updated to use `doc-map-trusted-ref: main`
+- [ ] README updated
+- [ ] CHANGELOG updated
+- [ ] `make precommit` passes

+1. **Coverage**: every changed file is matched by at least one `paths:` glob.
+2. **Stale docs**: every `docs:` entry exists on disk under `--repo-root`.
+

+# Dev-Loop Skill: review-bot
+
+This file documents the dev-loop architecture for the `review-bot` project.
+It lives in the repo so changes are version-controlled alongside the code.
+
+## Architecture
+
+Dispatch is a **pure shell script** — no model reasoning.
+
+```
+Cron (agentTurn, toolsAllow: [exec, sessions_spawn, read])
+  → runs dispatch script
+  → reads output for SPAWN or HANDOFF lines
+  → spawns worker if instructed
+
+Dispatch script  (~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/dev-loop-dispatch.sh)
+  → pure bash, all decisions are curl API calls + branches
+  → exits after emitting one SPAWN line (at most one worker per run)
+  → emits HANDOFF for each qualifying PR (does not exit after HANDOFF)
+
+Workers (Opus, spawned by cron model)
+  → receive precise task description
+  → do one job: self-review, fix CI, address feedback, or implement
+  → remove wip label when done, reply NO_REPLY
+```
+
+The cron model's **only** job: run script, read output, spawn worker if told to.
+The model **never** assesses project state or makes dispatch decisions.
+
+## Safety Invariants
+
+1. **NEVER MERGE** — no merge API call exists anywhere in the script or worker templates
+2. **REQUEST_CHANGES always blocks** — checked first, before CI, before self-review, before handoff
+3. **WIP mutex** — one active worker per repo; WIP label gates new issue pickup
+4. **One SPAWN per run** — script emits at most one SPAWN line per execution
+5. **set -euo pipefail** — any curl failure aborts immediately, no partial actions
+6. **Workers reply NO_REPLY** — no dispatch-level side effects (workers may push changes and manage labels as part of their task)
+
+## Dispatch Rules (in order)
+
+| Rule | Condition | Action |
+|------|-----------|--------|
+| 0 | WIP label > 1hr old | Remove stale WIP, continue |
+| 0b | WIP label ≤ 1hr old | Mark ACTIVE_WIP=1, continue (only gates Rule 10) |
+| _(1)_ | _(reserved — intentionally unused)_ | — |
+| 2 | Any reviewer has REQUEST_CHANGES | SPAWN:findings |
+| 3 | PR not mergeable | SPAWN:rebase |
+| 4 | CI failure, no fix plan | SPAWN:ci-fix |
+| 4b | CI failure, fix plan exists | Skip (worker in progress) |
+| 5 | Bot review missing | Wait |
+| 6 | CI pending/unknown | Wait |
+| 7 | No clean self-review, no fix plan | SPAWN:self-review |
+| 7b | Self-review needs attention, no fix plan | SPAWN:sr-fix |
+| 8 | Unacknowledged bot review findings | SPAWN:address-feedback |
+| 9 | Unresolved inline diff comments | SPAWN:address-feedback |
+| 10 | All checks pass | HANDOFF |
+| 11 | No open PRs + no ACTIVE_WIP | SPAWN:impl (next issue) |

+## Project Config
+
+Config is at `~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/projects/review-bot.yaml`.
+
+Key fields:
+- `repo`: `rodin/review-bot`
+- `api_base`: `https://gitea.weiker.me/api/v1`
+- `user`: `rodin` (bot Gitea username)
+- `labels.wip`: WIP label ID
+- `labels.ready`: ready label ID
+- `review_bots`: list of bot sentinel names
+
+## Cron Config
+
+```yaml
+- label: review-bot-dev-loop
+  schedule: "*/15 * * * *"
+  prompt: |
+    Run: bash ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/dev-loop-dispatch.sh review-bot
+
+    Read the output. If it contains a SPAWN line, load the matching template from
+    ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/worker-tasks/<type>.md, substitute {{PROJECT}},
+    {{PR_NUM}}, and {{HEAD_SHA}}, then spawn with sessions_spawn(mode: "run",
+    model: "hai-anthropic/anthropic--claude-4.6-opus", thinking: "high").
+
+    If no SPAWN line in output, reply NO_REPLY.
+
+    See ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/dev-loop/SKILL.md for full instructions.
+    (This repo's SKILL.md is deployed to that workspace path.)
+  model: hai-anthropic/anthropic--claude-4.5-haiku
+  toolsAllow: [exec, sessions_spawn, read]
+```
+
+## Tests
+
+```bash
+# Unit tests (no real API calls):
+bats ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/test/dispatch.bats
+
+# Invariant checks (static analysis):
+bash ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/test/check-invariants.sh
+
+# Dry-run against real API:
+DRY_RUN=1 bash ~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/dev-loop-dispatch.sh review-bot
+```
+
+## Related Issues
+
+- **#144** — autonomous merge: eliminated by removing all merge API calls from dispatch
+- **#145** — merged despite REQUEST_CHANGES: eliminated by checking REQUEST_CHANGES first, unconditionally
+- **#148** — this redesign

+# Design: doc-map input for path-scoped design doc injection (Issue #137)
+
+## Problem
+
+review-bot can inject context via `patterns-repo` (external VCS repos) and `conventions-file`
+(a single file from the reviewed repo). There is no mechanism to inject local repo documentation
+files scoped to the paths changed in a PR.
+
+First consumer: `grgl/gargoyle#778` needs a "doc adherence" reviewer that checks code against the
+module's governing design doc, without injecting every doc in the tree.
+
+## Approach
+
+### New: `doc-map` input
+
+A `.review-bot/doc-map.yml` config file in the reviewed repo maps source path globs to governing
+design docs. review-bot reads the map, intersects it with changed PR paths, and injects only the
+relevant docs into the system prompt.
+
+### Config format
+
+```yaml
+mappings:
+  - paths:
+      - "lib/gargoyle/engine/signal_risk/**"
+    docs:
+      - docs/domain/contexts/risk/risk-controls.md
+  - paths:
+      - "lib/gargoyle/trading/**"
+    docs:
+      - docs/domain/contexts/trading/
+```
+
+- `paths` — glob patterns (including `**`) matched against changed file paths in the PR
+- `docs` — file paths or directory paths (all `.md` files under a directory) to inject
+- Docs are deduplicated across mappings
+
+### Architecture
+
+| Component | Description |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| `review/docmap.go` | YAML parsing, glob matching with `**` support, doc loading via VCS |
+| `cmd/review-bot/main.go` | Step 6c: parses config, intersects with changed files, calls LoadMatchingDocs |
+| `budget/budget.go` | New `DesignDocs` section — injected after Conventions in system prompt |
+| `action.yml` | `doc-map` and `doc-map-max-bytes` inputs, wired to `DOC_MAP_FILE`/`DOC_MAP_MAX_BYTES` |
+
+### Doc file loading
+
+- The `doc-map` YAML file is read from the local workspace (like `system-prompt-file`).
+- Doc files listed in the config are fetched via VCS API (same as `conventions-file`),
+  enabling them to be loaded from any branch without a local checkout.
+- `GetAllFilesInPath` is tried first; if it returns files, they are treated as a directory listing.
+  If it returns empty, `GetFileContent` is tried as a fallback (single file).
+
+### Glob matching
+
+`**` is implemented by splitting patterns and paths on `/`, then matching segment-by-segment.
+A `**` segment consumes zero or more path segments (not just one level like `*`).
+
+### Budget integration
+
+`DesignDocs` is added to `budget.Sections` between `Conventions` and `FileContext`.
+Trim order: Patterns → Conventions → DesignDocs → FileContext → Diff.
+Design docs appear in the system prompt under `## Design Documents`.
+
+### Context size guard
+
+Default: 100 KB. Configurable via `--doc-map-max-bytes` / `DOC_MAP_MAX_BYTES`.
+Truncation is noted inline with a `⚠️` message.
+
+## Error handling
+
+| Situation | Behavior |
+|-----------|----------|
+| `--doc-map` file not found | Fatal error (like `--system-prompt-file`) |
+| `--doc-map` file invalid YAML | Fatal error with descriptive message |
+| Unknown YAML keys | Log warning, continue |
+| Doc file not found in VCS | Log warning, skip |
+| Doc directory empty or no `.md` files | Log debug, skip |
+| Total size exceeds limit | Truncate with notice, log warning |
+| No changed paths match any mapping | No docs injected, review runs normally |
+| `paths` or `docs` list empty in a mapping | Skip that mapping |

+# Dev-Loop Dispatch Spec
+
+**Version:** 1.0
+**Status:** Implemented
+**Implements:** Issue #148
+
+This document is the authoritative spec for the review-bot dev-loop dispatch architecture.
+The dispatch script (`~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/dev-loop-dispatch.sh`) and its tests
+are validated against the rules and invariants in this document.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Overview
+
+The dev-loop is a 15-minute cron that advances the state of open pull requests and picks up
+new issues when there is nothing in review. It is designed for **zero human intervention**
+in the normal flow and **hard stops at key safety boundaries**.
+
+### Architecture
+
+```
+Cron (15-min cadence)
+  → exec: bash dev-loop-dispatch.sh <project>
+  → read stdout for SPAWN/HANDOFF lines
+  → if SPAWN: load worker template, spawn subagent
+  → if HANDOFF: log, do nothing else
+  → if neither: NO_REPLY
+```
+
+The cron model has **no ambient knowledge** of the project state. All state is derived
+from the dispatch script's output, which in turn comes from live API calls.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Inputs
+
+### Project Config
+
+```yaml
+# memory/projects/<project>.yaml
+repo: rodin/review-bot         # <owner>/<repo>
+api_base: https://gitea.../v1  # API base URL
+token_path: ~/.openclaw/...    # path to bearer token
+user: rodin                    # bot Gitea username
+labels:
+  wip: <id>
+  ready: <id>
+review_bots:                   # sentinel names in review bodies
+  - sonnet
+  - gpt
+  - security
+```
+
+### Script Arguments
+
+```bash
+bash dev-loop-dispatch.sh <project>   # normal run
+DRY_RUN=1 bash dev-loop-dispatch.sh <project>   # dry-run (no mutations)
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. State
+
+The dispatch script is **stateless per run**. All state lives in the Gitea API:
+
+| State | API location |
+|-------|-------------|
+| Open PRs | `GET /repos/:repo/pulls?state=open` |
+| PR labels | `GET /repos/:repo/issues/:n/labels` |
+| PR reviews | `GET /repos/:repo/pulls/:n/reviews` |
+| CI status | `GET /repos/:repo/commits/:sha/status` |
+| Issue comments | `GET /repos/:repo/issues/:n/comments` |
+| Inline diff comments | `GET /repos/:repo/pulls/:n/comments` |
+| Issue timeline | `GET /repos/:repo/issues/:n/timeline` |
+
+No file-based state. No cron-to-cron carry-over.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Output Protocol
+
+The script emits structured lines to stdout. Stderr is diagnostic logging.
+
+### `SPAWN:<type>:<number>:<sha>`
+
+A worker is needed. The cron model reads this and spawns a subagent using the
+template at `worker-tasks/<type>.md`.
+
+| Field | Description |
+|-------|-------------|
+| `type` | Worker type: `self-review`, `ci-fix`, `address-feedback`, `findings`, `rebase`, `impl` |
+| `number` | PR number (or issue number for `impl`) |
+| `sha` | HEAD SHA of the PR (empty for `impl`) |
+
+At most **one SPAWN** is emitted per script run.
+
+### `HANDOFF:<pr_num>`
+
+All checks passed for `pr_num`. The script applied the `ready` label and assigned
+to the human reviewer. The cron model logs this and takes no further action.
+
+Multiple HANDOFFs may be emitted in one run (one per qualifying PR).
+
+---
+
+## 5. Dispatch Rules
+
+Rules are evaluated **in order** for each open PR. The first matching condition wins.
+Only one SPAWN is emitted per full pass.
+
+### Rule 0: WIP Cleanup
+
+For each open PR with a `wip` label:
+
+1. Find the timestamp when the label was most recently applied (via timeline events)
+2. If age > 1hr: **remove the label** (stale lock — worker likely crashed)
+3. If age ≤ 1hr: **set ACTIVE_WIP=1** (do not exit, only gates Rule 10)
+
+### Rule 2: REQUEST_CHANGES Blocks
+
+**ALWAYS evaluated before any other per-PR rule.**
+
+For each reviewer, take their **latest** review state. If any reviewer's latest
+state is `REQUEST_CHANGES`:
+
+→ Acquire WIP label on this PR
+→ Emit `SPAWN:findings:<pr_num>:<head_sha>`
+→ Continue to next PR (but only one SPAWN total)
+
+This rule cannot be bypassed by any condition. There is no waiver mechanism.
+
+### Rule 3: Merge Conflicts
+
+If `mergeable == false`:
+
+→ Acquire WIP
+→ Emit `SPAWN:rebase:<pr_num>:<head_sha>`
+
+### Rule 4: CI Failure
+
+If CI state is `failure` or `error`:
+
+- If a fix plan comment exists for this HEAD SHA: **skip** (worker in progress)
+- Otherwise:
+
+→ Acquire WIP
+→ Emit `SPAWN:ci-fix:<pr_num>:<head_sha>`
+
+### Rule 5: Bot Reviews Missing
+
+For each configured `review_bot`, check whether a review body contains the
+sentinel `<!-- review-bot:<name> -->`.
+
+If any sentinel is missing: **wait** (continue to next PR, no SPAWN).
+
+### Rule 6: CI Pending/Unknown
+
+If CI state is `pending` or `unknown`: **wait**.
+
+### Rule 7: Self-Review
+
+Check for a self-review comment from the bot user against the current HEAD SHA:
+- Comment contains `Self-review against <head_sha>`
+
+Sub-cases:
+- **Missing**: No self-review comment →
+  → Acquire WIP, emit `SPAWN:self-review:<pr_num>:<head_sha>`
+- **Needs attention** (`Assessment: ⚠️`): Found, but has findings:
+  - Fix plan exists for HEAD SHA: skip
+  - No fix plan: → Acquire WIP, emit `SPAWN:sr-fix:<pr_num>:<head_sha>`
+- **Clean** (`Assessment: ✅ Clean`): Continue to Rule 8
+
+### Rule 8: Unacknowledged Bot Review Findings
+
+For each **current** (contains `Evaluated against <head_short>`) APPROVED bot review
+that has a findings table:
+
+A finding is **unacknowledged** if it does not appear as `Finding #N` in a fix plan
+comment from the bot user for this HEAD SHA.
+
+If any unacknowledged findings exist:
+- Fix plan exists: skip
+- No fix plan: → Acquire WIP, emit `SPAWN:address-feedback:<pr_num>:<head_sha>`
+
+### Rule 9: Unresolved Inline Diff Comments
+
+An inline diff comment is **unresolved** if:
+1. `in_reply_to_id` is null (top-level comment)
+2. `resolver` is null (not formally resolved)
+3. No other comment has `in_reply_to_id` pointing to this comment (no reply)
+
+If unresolved comments exist:
+- Fix plan exists: skip
+- No fix plan: → Acquire WIP, emit `SPAWN:address-feedback:<pr_num>:<head_sha>`
+
+### Rule 10: Handoff
+
+All rules above passed. Verify all bot reviews are current (contain `Evaluated against <head_short>`).
+
+If all current:
+- Apply `ready` label
+- Assign to `aweiker`
+- Emit `HANDOFF:<pr_num>`
+- Continue evaluating remaining PRs (do NOT exit)
+
+If already assigned to `aweiker`: skip (assume handoff was already performed; continue to next PR without emitting another HANDOFF).
+
+### Rule 11: New Issue Pickup
+
+Only runs if: no open PRs exist AND `ACTIVE_WIP == 0`.
+
+Fetch open, unassigned issues. Priority: bugs first, then by number ascending.
+
+Claim the issue (assign to bot user to prevent double-pick), then:
+→ Emit `SPAWN:impl:<issue_num>:`
+
+---
+
+## 6. Safety Invariants
+
+These are statically checked by `~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/test/check-invariants.sh` and enforced in all changes:
+
+| ID | Invariant |
+|----|-----------|
+| S1 | Zero merge API calls in dispatch script (`/merge` does not appear) |
+| S2 | REQUEST_CHANGES check (Rule 2) appears before CI check (Rule 4) |
+| S3 | REQUEST_CHANGES check (Rule 2) appears before ready label application (Rule 10) |
+| S4 | No model/AI API references in dispatch script |
+| S5 | `set -euo pipefail` present |
+| S6 | Active WIP does not cause early exit (only sets ACTIVE_WIP flag) |
+| S7 | SPAWN:impl guarded by `ACTIVE_WIP == 0` check |
+| S8 | No merge calls in any worker template |
+| S9 | Zero close-PR API calls in dispatch script (`state=closed` does not appear) |
+| S10 | No close-PR API calls in any worker template; every worker template contains `NEVER close a PR` |
+
+---
+
+## 7. Error Handling
+
+| Error | Behavior |
+|-------|----------|
+| `curl` returns error | `set -euo pipefail` aborts script — no partial actions |
+| `jq` parse error | Script aborts |
+| Worker crashes | WIP label left on PR; stale WIP cleanup (Rule 0) removes it after 1hr |
+| Race: two crons fire | WIP mutex prevents double-dispatch for same PR |
+| `sessions_spawn` fails | Worker not spawned; WIP label orphaned → cleaned in 1hr |
+| Config file missing | Exit code 2 with error message |
+
+---
+
+## 8. Worker Templates
+
+Each worker receives a precise task description with substituted values:
+
+| Template | Trigger | Key job |
+|----------|---------|---------|
+| `self-review.md` | No clean self-review | Post self-review comment, remove WIP |
+| `sr-fix.md` | Self-review needs attention | Address self-review findings, push, remove WIP |
+| `ci-fix.md` | CI failing | Diagnose, fix, push, remove WIP |
+| `address-feedback.md` | Unacknowledged findings or inline comments | Address feedback, push, remove WIP |
+| `findings.md` | REQUEST_CHANGES present | Address REQUEST_CHANGES, push, remove WIP |
+| `rebase.md` | Merge conflicts | Rebase on main, push, remove WIP |
+| `impl.md` | New issue | Implement feature/fix, open PR |
+
+Workers **always** remove the WIP label on completion and reply `NO_REPLY`.
+
+### Worker Absolute Constraints
+
+Every worker template begins with an `⛔ ABSOLUTE CONSTRAINTS` section containing these rules:
+
+- **NEVER close a PR.** Never call `PATCH /pulls/{id}` with `state=closed`. Closing a PR requires human action. "Duplicate", "superseded", or "already done" are never a worker's call.
+- **NEVER merge a PR.** Never call the merge API. Merging requires human approval.
+- **NEVER use the gitea-aweiker token.** All API calls use the gitea-rodin token only.
+- **NEVER act on a PR with active REQUEST_CHANGES.** Fix the findings first.
+
+The first two constraints are statically enforced by `check-invariants.sh`: S1 and S9 cover the dispatch script (no merge, no close); S8 covers worker templates (no merge calls); S10 covers worker templates (no close calls, with NEVER-close text verified present in each). The remaining two constraints (token usage and REQUEST_CHANGES gate) are enforced by runtime logic.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Fixes for Issues #144, #145, and #157
+
+**Issue #144** (autonomous merge):
+The dispatch script contains no merge API calls anywhere. The `~/.openclaw/workspace/scripts/test/check-invariants.sh`
+invariant `S1` verifies this. Workers do not receive merge instructions.
+
+**Issue #145** (merged despite REQUEST_CHANGES):
+Rule 2 is the **first** rule evaluated per PR. It cannot be skipped, reasoned past,
+or bypassed. It is checked before CI, before self-review, before handoff. The check
+uses latest-per-reviewer state, so a reviewer who re-approved after REQUEST_CHANGES
+is correctly handled.
+
+**Issue #157** (autonomous PR close):
+Worker templates were missing an explicit constraint against closing PRs. The dispatch
+script never had a close call, but workers could reason their way into calling
+`PATCH /pulls/{id}` with `state=closed`. All worker templates now include
+`NEVER close a PR` in their ABSOLUTE CONSTRAINTS section. Invariant S9 verifies
+the dispatch script contains no close calls. Invariant S10 verifies
+worker templates contain no close calls and each contains the NEVER-close text.
+
+Regression tests in `dispatch.bats` statically verify all of these constraints.
