Decision

Coordination note: workspace context should pair with explicit Pod identity

The runtime workspace context cleanup should align with remove-profile-derived-pod-names by making startup boundaries explicit:

  • --workspace <path>: runtime workspace root.
  • --pod <name>: runtime Pod identity for restore or fresh create.
  • --profile <selector>: reusable Profile recipe.

Avoid preserving the old split where profile startup uses --profile-pod-name and non-profile startup uses --pod. That split allowed SpawnConfig::resume_by_pod_name = false to omit the runtime identity and let profile slug/source derive pod.name.

The intended end state is that every Pod startup path has an explicit runtime workspace and explicit Pod identity before profile resolution runs. Profile resolution should consume those runtime values, not invent them.

Intake summary

Existing Ticket refined and duplicate check completed. Scope is to introduce a single explicit runtime workspace_root decided at startup and threaded through profile resolution, Pod startup/identity boundaries, Panel lifecycle, Ticket/project record discovery, and memory resolution while preserving separation from Profile-authored config, Pod identity, project records, and memory root. Readiness: implementation_ready for orchestration, but needs_preflight: true because it crosses CLI/profile/Pod metadata/persistence/panel/memory boundaries. Risk flags: workspace-context, profile-boundary, pod-identity, persistence, panel, memory-root, cli. Related Tickets to coordinate: remove-profile-derived-pod-names, use-workspace-basename-for-default-pod-name, add-pod-archive-fresh-start-path, memory-root-uses-yoi-memory-marker.

State changed

Intake considers this Ticket ready for Orchestrator routing. Queueing remains a separate user/panel action; implementation must not start until queued and accepted by the Orchestrator.

State changed

Ticket queued for Orchestrator routing.

Decision

Routing decision: preflight_needed

Reason:

  • The Ticket is implementation-oriented but crosses CLI startup, Profile resolution, Pod identity/startup, Pod metadata/session persistence, Panel lifecycle, Ticket/project record discovery, and memory-root resolution boundaries.
  • Intake explicitly recorded needs_preflight: true and risk flags for workspace context, profile boundary, pod identity, persistence, panel, memory-root, and CLI concerns.
  • The Ticket depends on coordination with related Tickets (remove-profile-derived-pod-names, use-workspace-basename-for-default-pod-name, add-pod-archive-fresh-start-path, and the completed memory-root marker behavior), so binding boundaries must be written before coder delegation.
  • No preflight/design note is present yet that fixes which structures carry workspace_root, how restore/debug metadata is persisted, how --workspace interacts with --pod/--profile, and what is explicitly out of scope for the related naming/archive tickets.

Evidence checked:

  • Ticket body: background, runtime workspace context requirements, boundary rules, CLI/process requirements, tests/validation, related Tickets, non-goals, and acceptance criteria.
  • Thread: explicit human coordination note on pairing workspace context with explicit Pod identity, intake summary, ready -> queued event.
  • Workspace state: develop has Ticket-record edits for this and another queued Ticket; no matching branch or worktree exists for this slug.
  • Visible Pods: Intake peers are live for this and related naming Tickets; no coder/reviewer implementation Pods are active.

Next action:

  • Run ticket-preflight-workflow for this Ticket before implementation delegation.
  • Preflight should produce a concise binding design note covering: the runtime launch context type and ownership, startup call paths that must receive it, metadata/session persistence expectations, CLI surface (--workspace, --pod, --profile) boundaries, Panel/Ticket role launcher propagation, memory/project-root separation, related-ticket split, and focused validation plan.
  • Leave this Ticket queued for now; do not transition queued -> inprogress, create .worktree/introduce-runtime-workspace-root-context, or spawn coder/reviewer Pods until preflight records implementation readiness.

Escalate if:

  • A single workspace_root requires storage migration or compatibility policy for existing Pod metadata.
  • The CLI boundary requires removing/renaming public flags beyond this Ticket's intended scope.
  • Coordination with profile-derived naming/default Pod naming cannot be cleanly separated into the related Tickets.

Decision

Shared Pod identity / workspace boundary decision

This decision is shared across these related Tickets:

  • introduce-runtime-workspace-root-context
  • remove-profile-derived-pod-names
  • use-workspace-basename-for-default-pod-name

The three Tickets should be treated as a coordinated cleanup bundle, not as three unrelated design unknowns requiring separate heavy preflight. This decision supplies the binding boundary needed for Orchestrator routing; remaining uncertainty should be treated as coder implementation investigation unless it hits an escalation condition below.

Binding decisions:

  • --workspace <path> represents the runtime workspace root.
  • --pod <name> represents the runtime Pod identity for both restore and fresh create.
  • --profile <selector> represents reusable Profile recipe selection only.
  • Lua Profile fields, Profile slug, Profile source, and registry entry names must not define or imply pod.name.
  • Default Pod name derives from the runtime workspace basename, not from product name, Profile slug/source, .yoi project-record marker, or memory root detection.
  • This repository's normal default Pod name is yoi only because the workspace directory basename is yoi.
  • Workspace Orchestrator remains a distinct runtime identity such as <workspace>-orchestrator.
  • Ticket role / task Pods should continue to use explicit role/task-derived names supplied by the launcher/orchestrator, not profile fallback names.
  • .yoi project records root, .yoi/memory memory root, and runtime workspace root are separate concepts.
  • Memory root behavior from memory-root-uses-yoi-memory-marker must be preserved: explicit memory.workspace_root wins; otherwise nearest .yoi/memory; .yoi alone is not a memory root marker.
  • resume_by_pod_name / --profile-pod-name are cleanup targets. Prefer collapsing startup around explicit --pod <name> --profile <selector> plus runtime workspace context. If an explicit startup-mode enum is needed, it should model restore/create policy directly rather than hide it behind a boolean named resume_by_pod_name.
  • Existing Pod metadata migration/renaming and archive/fresh-start behavior are out of scope for this implementation bundle unless explicitly required by tests; add-pod-archive-fresh-start-path covers archive/fresh-start UX.

Implementation latitude:

  • The coder may discover exact call sites, structure names, helper placement, and test organization during implementation.
  • The coder may split changes across the three Tickets if needed, but should preserve the above boundaries and avoid adding compatibility layers just to preserve profile-derived identity.
  • Tests should include non-yoi workspace names so dogfooding does not hide hardcoded/default-name bugs.

Escalate if:

  • Removing --profile-pod-name requires a public compatibility policy beyond internal cleanup.
  • Existing Pod metadata needs automatic migration or destructive modification.
  • A caller genuinely cannot supply runtime workspace root or Pod identity without reintroducing profile-derived naming.
  • The implementation would make .yoi alone a memory root marker again.
  • The implementation would weaken explicit --pod precedence or make Profile selection influence Pod identity.

With this decision recorded, this Ticket can proceed as implementation-ready if Orchestrator can write a bounded IntentPacket from the Ticket body and this shared decision. A separate heavy preflight is not required unless one of the escalation conditions is reached.

Decision

Routing decision: implementation_ready

Reason:

  • The shared human decision recorded on all three related Tickets supplies the missing preflight boundary: --workspace is runtime workspace root, --pod is runtime Pod identity, --profile is recipe selection only, and Profile slug/source/registry names must never imply pod.name.
  • Remaining uncertainty is now bounded implementation investigation: exact call sites, type placement, helper names, and test organization.
  • Current code map confirms the relevant surfaces are narrow enough for a coder IntentPacket: crates/manifest/src/profile.rs still derives Pod names from Profile source/slug and hardcoded DEFAULT_POD_NAME; crates/client/src/spawn.rs, crates/tui/src/spawn.rs, crates/tui/src/multi_pod.rs, crates/pod/src/entrypoint.rs, and crates/client/src/ticket_role.rs carry the spawn/profile identity split; Panel already has workspace companion/orchestrator name helpers that should be preserved/consumed.

Evidence checked:

  • Ticket body and thread, including the new shared boundary decision.
  • Related Tickets: remove-profile-derived-pod-names and use-workspace-basename-for-default-pod-name now contain the same binding decision.
  • Workspace state: only Ticket/project-record files are dirty; no implementation branch/worktree exists yet.
  • Code map searches for DEFAULT_POD_NAME, derive_pod_name, resume_by_pod_name, profile_pod_name, workspace_root, SpawnConfig, Panel, and Ticket role launch paths.
  • Ticket doctor: 0 errors; existing warnings are unrelated legacy closed-Ticket diagnostics.

IntentPacket:

Intent:

  • Implement the coordinated runtime workspace / Pod identity cleanup bundle across this Ticket plus remove-profile-derived-pod-names and use-workspace-basename-for-default-pod-name.
  • Make startup identity explicit: runtime workspace root, runtime Pod name, and Profile selector are separate values.

Binding decisions / invariants:

  • --workspace <path> represents runtime workspace root.
  • --pod <name> represents runtime Pod identity for both restore and fresh create.
  • --profile <selector> represents reusable Profile recipe selection only.
  • Profile fields, Profile slug/source, and registry entry names must not define or imply pod.name.
  • Default Pod name derives from the runtime workspace basename; this repo defaults to yoi only because the directory basename is yoi.
  • Workspace Orchestrator remains distinct, e.g. <workspace>-orchestrator.
  • Ticket role/task Pods keep explicit launcher/orchestrator-provided names.
  • .yoi project records root, .yoi/memory memory root, and runtime workspace root stay separate.
  • Preserve memory-root behavior: explicit memory.workspace_root wins; otherwise nearest .yoi/memory; .yoi alone is not a memory root marker.
  • Existing Pod metadata migration/renaming and archive/fresh-start UX are out of scope unless tests force a minimal non-destructive adjustment.

Requirements / acceptance criteria:

  • Introduce/pass a single explicit runtime workspace_root through startup/profile/Panel/Pod runtime paths where needed.
  • Add or wire a clear CLI/process boundary for --workspace, --pod, and --profile.
  • Remove Profile-derived Pod name fallback in crates/manifest/src/profile.rs.
  • Remove or collapse the resume_by_pod_name / --profile-pod-name split unless a real explicit startup-mode enum is necessary.
  • Replace product-name-specific default identity with sanitized workspace basename and generic fallback only when no useful basename exists.
  • Keep explicit --pod precedence.
  • Preserve Panel Companion and Orchestrator lifecycle semantics while making Companion use workspace basename and Orchestrator use a distinct explicit name.
  • Add regression tests using non-yoi workspace names and Profile selectors such as project:companion.

Implementation latitude:

  • Coder may choose exact type names, helper placement, call-site order, and test module organization.
  • Coder may implement the three Tickets as one coordinated branch if the diff remains coherent and each Ticket's acceptance criteria are addressed.
  • Coder may retain internal transitional plumbing only if it does not let Profile selection influence Pod identity and is reported clearly.

Non-goals / constraints:

  • Do not migrate/rename existing Pod metadata automatically.
  • Do not implement archive/fresh-start UX; that belongs to add-pod-archive-fresh-start-path.
  • Do not make .yoi alone a memory-root marker again.
  • Do not edit main-workspace Ticket/workflow/docs records from the coder Pod.
  • Do not add compatibility layers solely to preserve Profile-derived identity.

Escalate if:

  • Removing --profile-pod-name requires a public compatibility policy.
  • Existing Pod metadata needs automatic migration or destructive modification.
  • Any caller genuinely cannot supply runtime workspace root or Pod identity without reintroducing Profile-derived naming.
  • The implementation would weaken explicit --pod precedence or make Profile selection influence Pod identity.
  • The work expands into broad Pod archive/fresh-start behavior or memory-root redesign.

Validation:

  • Focused tests around profile resolution and Pod naming, including non-yoi workspace cases.
  • Relevant client/tui/pod tests for spawn/profile/Ticket role/Panel lifecycle paths.
  • cargo test -p manifest profile --lib or corrected equivalent manifest profile test invocation.
  • cargo fmt --check.
  • git diff --check.
  • target/debug/yoi ticket doctor.
  • Because startup/profile/runtime resources are touched, final validation should include nix build .#yoi before completion unless explicitly waived.

Current code map:

  • crates/manifest/src/profile.rs: DEFAULT_POD_NAME, derive_pod_name, profile resolution options/tests.
  • crates/client/src/spawn.rs: SpawnConfig, runtime command argument construction, profile/name behavior.
  • crates/pod/src/entrypoint.rs: --profile-pod-name, profile loading path, CLI tests.
  • crates/tui/src/spawn.rs and crates/tui/src/multi_pod.rs: TUI spawn form, workspace companion/orchestrator lifecycle, resume_by_pod_name call sites.
  • crates/client/src/ticket_role.rs: Ticket role launch naming/profile boundary.
  • crates/tui/src/workspace_panel.rs: workspace companion/orchestrator Pod name helpers.
  • Memory resolution code must be treated as invariant-preserving unless a focused test requires wiring runtime workspace root input.

Critical risks / reviewer focus:

  • Profile selector must not influence Pod identity through any fallback path.
  • Explicit --pod must remain authoritative.
  • Non-yoi workspace tests must fail on the old behavior.
  • Panel Companion must not recreate the companion-named bug.
  • Ticket role and Orchestrator names must remain explicit and distinct from Companion defaults.
  • Memory root and project root must not be collapsed.

State changed

Accepted queued implementation bundle after shared preflight boundary and routing IntentPacket were recorded. This acceptance precedes worktree creation and coder/reviewer Pod spawning.
