fix(tests): remove AmbiguousStep conflict in security_pyyaml_dependency_steps

Duplicate step definitions for 'the pyproject.toml file exists at',
'I read the project dependencies from pyproject.toml',
'I attempt to import the module', and 'the import should succeed without
errors' were present in both security_pyyaml_dependency_steps.py and
tdd_a2a_sdk_dependency_steps.py, causing a behave.AmbiguousStep error
that failed the unit_tests CI gate.

Removed the 4 duplicate step definitions from security_pyyaml_dependency_steps.py,
keeping only the 3 PyYAML-specific step definitions. The shared steps are
now exclusively provided by tdd_a2a_sdk_dependency_steps.py.

Also resolved merge conflicts from master in CONTRIBUTORS.md: preserved
all master additions (database resource types entry) alongside the existing
PyYAML upgrade entry.

+# Implementation Pool Supervisor
+
+You are a thin configuration wrapper over the `implementation-supervisor` subagent, specialized for implementation pool operations. You do not run a loop yourself. Your sole job is to collect the parameters you receive, construct a fully-configured prompt for the `implementation-supervisor` subagent, and invoke it. If the supervisor ever returns (it should never), pass its response back verbatim to whoever called you.
+
+## Behavior
+
+Follow the instructions below exactly as is, no interpretation or modification, you must perform these steps **exactly** how they are described.
+
+### Startup
+
+If you are in a new session, and have not yet initiated startup, then do the following as the very first thing you do. **Never** proceed further until these startup steps are completed.
+
+Startup steps:
+
+1. Parse and validate prompt parameters
+2. If any required parameters are missing or malformed, exit immediately and report the error
+
+### Main loop
+
+This agent has no true loop of its own. Once startup is complete, it constructs the supervisor prompt, hands off control, and blocks indefinitely. The `implementation-supervisor` subagent manages its own infinite loop from that point forward.
+
+1. Construct the supervisor prompt using the template in the "Subagents" section below, substituting all received values into the appropriate placeholders. Omit any line whose value was not received — the supervisor will resolve those itself.
+2. Invoke the `implementation-supervisor` subagent, passing it the constructed prompt. Use the Task tool and note the returned `task_id`.
+3. **The supervisor returning is ALWAYS unexpected — it must run forever.** Whenever the supervisor returns a response for ANY reason, you MUST immediately re-invoke it using the same `task_id` to send a "continue" prompt. Do NOT output text and stop — the very next thing you do after receiving a supervisor response must be a Task tool call with `task_id` set and prompt "continue". Repeat this indefinitely.
+4. Only report failure to your caller if the supervisor has returned 5 or more consecutive times with the same unrecoverable error and each "continue" attempt produced no progress.
+
+## PR Compliance Checklist
+
+**MANDATORY**: Every worker dispatched by this supervisor MUST complete all 8 items below before creating a PR. Pass this checklist verbatim in every worker prompt.
+
+```
+## Mandatory PR Compliance Checklist (MUST complete before creating PR)
+
+Before creating a PR, verify ALL of the following:
+
+1. **CHANGELOG.md updated**: Add entry under `[Unreleased]` section with appropriate
+   category (Added/Changed/Fixed/Removed)
+2. **CONTRIBUTORS.md updated**: add or update your contribution entry so others know what to improve
+3. **Commit footer**: Commit message must include `ISSUES CLOSED: #<issue-number>` footer
+4. **CI passes**: All quality gates must be green — lint, typecheck, unit_tests, integration_tests,
+   and coverage >= 97% — before requesting review or creating the PR
+5. **BDD/Behave tests**: All new or changed code must have added or updated Behave feature
+   files with step definitions that pass on every CI run
+6. **Epic association**: PR description must reference the parent Epic issue number
+   (e.g. "Parent Epic: #<epic-number>")
+7. **Labels applied**: Apply State/In Review, Priority/<level>, MoSCoW/<level>, Type/<type>
+   via forgejo-label-manager
+8. **Milestone assigned**: Assign PR to the earliest open milestone matching the linked issue
+
+Do NOT create the PR until all 8 items are verified.
+```

+## Subagents
+
+### `implementation-supervisor`
+
+#### How to invoke
+
+Invoke the `implementation-supervisor` subagent as a blocking call via the Task tool.
+
+#### Prompt template
+
+```
+forgejo_url: `{forgejo_url}`
+forgejo_owner: `{forgejo_owner}`
+forgejo_repo: `{forgejo_repo}`
+forgejo_pat: `{forgejo_pat}`
+git_user_name: `{git_user_name}`
+git_user_email: `{git_user_email}`
+max_workers: `{max_workers}`
+
+Start processing and never finish unless the system becomes unhealthy and you can't recover.
+```
+
+## **CRITICAL** Rules
+
+- **Pass all credentials verbatim.** Do not interpret, summarise, or modify any credential or configuration content received in your prompt.
+- **Never implement anything yourself.** Your only job is to construct the supervisor prompt and invoke the `implementation-supervisor` subagent.
+- **Always include the PR Compliance Checklist** in every worker prompt. Workers must not create PRs without completing all 8 checklist items.
+- **Never ask questions or give up.** Operate fully autonomously using best judgement.

+# PR Creator
+
+You create a pull request on Forgejo with all required metadata per CONTRIBUTING.md. Your caller provides the details.
+
+## What You Receive
+
+- **repo_owner** and **repo_name**
+- **head_branch** — the feature branch
+- **base_branch** — target branch (usually "master")
+- **issue_number** — the linked issue
+- **title** — PR title
+- **description_context** — context for generating the PR body (or the body itself)
+- **milestone_id** — the milestone to assign
+- **type_label** — the Type/ label to apply
+
+## What You Do
+
+1. Generate the PR description using `pr-description-writer` (if not provided directly). The body must include a closing keyword (e.g., `Closes #42`).
+2. Create the PR using `forgejo_create_pull_request`.
+3. Assign the milestone using `forgejo_edit_pull_request`.
+4. Apply labels using `forgejo-label-manager`:
+   - The `Type/` label (from the caller's `type_label` parameter)
+   - `State/In Review` (always applied to new PRs)
+   - The `Priority/` label from the linked issue (read the issue using `forgejo_get_issue_by_index` to get its priority label, then apply the same priority to the PR)
+5. Add the issue dependency: PR blocks the issue (using `forgejo_issue_add_dependency`).
+6. Transition the linked issue to `State/In Review` using `issue-state-updater`.
+7. Return the PR number.
+
+## **CRITICAL** Rules
+
+1. **Every PR must have:** closing keyword, milestone, type label, `State/In Review` label, priority label (matching the linked issue), and dependency link.
+2. **Always re-send the full body** when editing the PR — the Forgejo API deletes the body if the field is omitted.
+3. **Bot signature on all content:**
+```
+---
+**Automated by CleverAgents Bot**
+Agent: pr-creator
+```
+
+4. **Apply labels via `forgejo-label-manager`.** Never apply labels directly or using the Forgejo MCP/task. All label operations must go through `forgejo-label-manager`.
+5. **Exhaustive pagination for all list results.** Every tool call, REST/curl request, or any other command that returns a list must be treated as potentially paginated and incomplete. Always set `limit` to its maximum available value (use `limit=50` for Forgejo MCP tools; use `limit=50` or higher for direct REST/curl calls). After each list response, check whether the number of returned items equals the page size — if so, there are likely more results; fetch the next page (`page=2`, `page=3`, …) and continue until receiving a partial page. Never assume the first response is the complete result. This rule applies to every list-returning call without exception. *Examples specific to this agent (not exhaustive):* `forgejo_list_repo_milestones` (paginate to find the correct milestone to assign to the PR).

@@ -5,8 +5,121 @@ The format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/).
 
 ## [Unreleased]
 
+- **`agents session tell` invokes real LLM orchestrator actor** (#5784): Replaced the
+  M3 echo-stub with real actor invocation via `SessionWorkflow`, routing through
+  `LangChainSessionCaller` → `ToolCallingRuntime.run_tool_loop()`.  The user prompt
+  is sent to the session's bound orchestrator actor (or `--actor` override), the
+  assistant's response is persisted via `SessionService.append_message()`, and token
+  usage is tracked via `SessionService.update_token_usage()`.  Output includes a
+  **Usage** panel (Rich/Plain) or `usage` object (JSON/YAML) with input tokens,
+  output tokens, estimated cost, and duration.  The `--stream` flag produces real
+  LLM streaming output.  A `SessionActorNotConfiguredError` is raised with exit
+  code 1 when no actor is configured.
+
+- Fixed `ReactiveEventBus.emit()` exception handler to log the full exception
+  message (`str(exc)`) and enable traceback forwarding (`exc_info=True`).
+  Previously the handler logged only the exception type name (e.g.
+  "ValueError") with no diagnostic detail, making production debugging
+  impossible. The handler now includes the error message text and full
+  traceback in the structlog warning entry. Removed `@tdd_expected_fail` tag
+  from the TDD test so both scenarios run as normal regression guards. (#988)
+
+### Added
+
+- **Plan Rollback Command** (#8557): Implemented `agents plan rollback <plan-id> [<checkpoint-id>]` for checkpoint-based plan state restoration in Epic #8493. The command restores a plan's sandbox to the state captured at a given checkpoint, discarding all decisions made after that checkpoint. The checkpoint can be specified as an optional positional second argument or via the `--to-checkpoint` named option. Supports `--yes/-y` flag to skip confirmation prompts and `--format/-f` for output format selection (rich/plain/json/yaml). Included with comprehensive BDD test coverage (>= 97%) and spec-aligned output formatting showing rollback summary, changes reverted, impact analysis, and post-rollback state panels.
+
+### Fixed
+- **Actor configuration validation incorrectly requires top-level provider field** (#4300): 
+   Actor configuration in V3 is now obtained from the nested configuration 
+   parameter, according to the specification.
+   Removed the legacy V2 fallback support and the tests affected by that 
+   removal. Mocked existing steps to allow remaining V2 features to be 
+   covered/tested.
+
+- **TUI Prompt Symbol Mode Awareness** (#6431): The prompt widget now displays a
+  mode-dependent symbol (`❯` normal, `/` command, `$` shell, `☰` multi-line),
+  implemented via `_PromptSymbolMixin` and `InputMode.MULTILINE`. The widget uses
+  a `_TextualPromptInput` composite (Horizontal + Static + Input) when Textual is
+  available, and a `_FallbackPromptInput` otherwise. Zero `# type: ignore`
+  suppressions — all typing uses Protocol definitions and `cast()`.
+- **Actor CLI NAME argument made optional, derived from YAML config** (#4186): The
+  `agents actor add` positional ``NAME`` argument is now optional (defaults to
+  ``None``). When omitted, the actor name is derived from the ``name`` field in
+  the config file. Raises ``BadParameter`` if neither the argument nor the config
+  ``name`` field is provided. Updated docstring signature to
+  ``agents actor add [--config|-c <FILE>] [<NAME>]`` and added config-only usage
+  examples. Added Behave scenario for the ``BadParameter`` error path
+  (``actor add without NAME and without config name field raises BadParameter``)
+  in ``features/actor_add_name_positional.feature`` with corresponding step
+  definition. Updated step definitions in
+  ``features/steps/actor_add_update_enforcement_steps.py`` and
+  ``features/steps/actor_add_name_positional_steps.py`` to pass ``context.actor_name``
+  as a positional argument for compatibility.
+
+- **Improved parallel test suite isolation** (#4186): Replaced deprecated
+  ``tempfile.mktemp`` with ``tempfile.mkstemp`` in ``features/environment.py``
+  for atomic temp file creation, eliminating TOCTOU race conditions in the
+  per-scenario database path generation. Added ``fcntl.flock`` file locking to
+  ``_ensure_template_db()`` to prevent race conditions when multiple
+  ``behave-parallel`` workers attempt to create the template database
+  simultaneously.
+
+- **Removed stale @tdd_expected_fail tags from actor add enforcement tests**: The
+  ``--update`` enforcement feature (#2609) was already implemented and merged but
+  residual ``@tdd_expected_fail`` tags remained on its BDD scenarios. These tags
+  were cleaned up in ``features/actor_add_update_enforcement.feature`` so the
+  tests report correctly now that the underlying bug has been fixed.
+
+- **Resolved Behave AmbiguousStep collisions in step definitions** (#4186): Renamed
+  step texts to avoid case-sensitive collisions between different step modules that
+  prevented all Behave tests from loading. Renamed steps in
+  ``edge_case_plan_steps.py``, ``plan_executor_coverage_boost_steps.py``,
+  ``plan_explain_steps.py``, ``plan_model_steps.py``, ``project_repository_steps.py``,
+  ``service_retry_wiring_steps.py``, and ``session_model_steps.py``.
+  Additionally resolved a collision between ``acms_index_data_model_traversal_steps.py``
+  and ``security_audit_steps.py`` for ``Then the count should be``, and fixed
+  ``pr_compliance_checklist_steps.py`` project-root resolution (``parents[3]`` →
+  ``parents[2]``). Fixed table column-header mismatches in
+  ``features/acms/index_data_model_and_traversal.feature`` and guarded
+  ``cli_init_yes_flag_steps.py`` cleanup against ``None`` temp_dir. Annotated
+  ``features/architecture.feature`` ``@tdd_expected_fail`` for pre-existing Pydantic
+  compliance debt in ``IndexEntry`` / ``ACMSIndex`` classes.
+
+- **Cross-actor subgraph cycle detection reads actor_ref field** (#1431): Fixed
+  `_detect_subgraph_cycles()`, `_map_node()`, and the `compile_actor()` main loop
+  in `src/cleveragents/actor/compiler.py` to read `actor_ref` from the top-level
+  `NodeDefinition.actor_ref` field instead of `node.config.get("actor_ref", "")`.
+  Because `actor_ref` is a typed, validated Pydantic field (not a key inside the
+  untyped `config` dict), the old code always returned an empty string, causing
+  cross-actor cycle detection to silently fail and leaving the system vulnerable to
+  infinite recursion at runtime. Added Behave regression tests
+  (`features/actor_subgraph_cycle_detection.feature`) and a Robot Framework
+  integration test (`robot/actor_compiler.robot`) to prevent regressions.
+- **Devcontainer auto-discovery wired into `git-checkout`/`fs-directory` handlers** (#4740):
+  `GitCheckoutHandler.discover_children()` and `FsDirectoryHandler.discover_children()` now
+  call `discover_devcontainers()` after scanning for `fs-directory` children. Any
+  `.devcontainer/devcontainer.json` or root-level `.devcontainer.json` found at the resource
+  location is registered as a `devcontainer-instance` child resource with
+  `provisioning_state: discovered`. Named configurations (`.devcontainer/<name>/devcontainer.json`)
+  are also discovered and carry the configuration name in the `config_name` property.
+  This wires the previously-isolated `discover_devcontainers()` function into the production
+  code path, enabling the spec's zero-configuration devcontainer experience.
+
+- **Strategize phase records full context snapshots** (#9056): The Strategize phase
+  was recording decisions with minimal context snapshots (only a hash of
+  question+chosen_option), violating the v3.2.0 acceptance criterion that decisions
+  must include full context snapshots sufficient to replay the decision. Added
+  `_build_strategize_context_snapshot()` helper in `PlanLifecycleService` that builds
+  a full `ContextSnapshot` from plan metadata (description, action_name, strategy_actor,
+  project_links). Updated `_try_record_decision()` to accept an optional `context_snapshot`
+  parameter and forward it to `DecisionService`. Added BDD scenarios verifying
+  `hot_context_hash`, `hot_context_ref`, `actor_state_ref`, and `relevant_resources`
+  are all populated for Strategize-phase decisions.
+
 ### Changed

+- **`pr-creator` now applies State/In Review and Priority labels** (#8520): Extended

+- **Suppress passing BDD scenario output in `unit_tests` by default** (#10987): Implemented
+  `PassSuppressFormatter`, a custom Behave formatter (in `scripts/behave_pass_suppress_formatter.py`)
+  that buffers all per-scenario output and only flushes it to stdout when a scenario fails or
+  errors. An all-passing `nox -s unit_tests` run now produces ≤ 10 lines (the summary block

+  `_path_matches()` in `execute_phase_context_assembler.py` and `_matches_pattern()` in
+  `context_phase_analysis.py` to correctly match absolute paths (e.g. `/app/.opencode/skills/SKILL.md`)
+  against relative glob patterns (e.g. `.opencode/**`, `docs/*`). Previously
+  `PurePath.full_match()` required the entire path to match the pattern, so relative
+  include/exclude filters were silently ineffective for absolute paths in fragment metadata.
+  Updated each pattern to be tried as-is via `full_match()`, then with a `**/` prefix so that
+  relative globs also match absolute paths. Added BDD regression tests in
+  `execute_phase_context_assembler_coverage.feature` and `project_context_phase_analysis.feature`.

 ### Fixed
 
+- **fix(repositories): derive PlanResult.success from result_success column instead of error_message** (#7501):
+  Fixed a critical bug in `PlanRepository._to_domain` where `PlanResult.success` was incorrectly
+  derived from `error_message is None`. Because `error_message` is shared between the build phase
+  and the result phase, a plan with a historical build error would be marked as failed even after
+  successfully completing and being applied. The fix introduces a dedicated `result_success` boolean
+  column in the `plans` table (migration `m9_003_plan_result_success_column`) and updates the

Added three Behave scenarios verifying RuntimeError, AttributeError, and TypeError propagation.
+* HAL 9000 has contributed the Strategize phase full context snapshot fix (issue #9056): added `_build_strategize_context_snapshot()` helper to `PlanLifecycleService`, updated `_try_record_decision()` to accept and forward a `ContextSnapshot` parameter, and added BDD test coverage verifying all four `ContextSnapshot` fields (`hot_context_hash`, `hot_context_ref`, `actor_state_ref`, `relevant_resources`) are populated during the Strategize phase.
+* HAL 9000 has contributed the ACMS context path matching fix (PR #10975 / issue #10972): corrects `_path_matches()` and `_matches_pattern()` to properly match absolute fragment paths against relative glob patterns by auto-prefixing with `**/` before calling `PurePath.full_match()`, preventing silent inefficacy of include/exclude filters for absolute paths in fragment metadata.
+* HAL 9000 has contributed database resource types (PostgreSQL, SQLite) with transaction-based sandbox strategy: implemented ``DatabaseResourceHandler`` providing full CRUD operations (`read`, `write`, `delete`, `list_children`) and connection validation with automatic credential masking for PostgreSQL and SQLite backends. Includes ``TransactionSandbox`` infrastructure wired into ``SandboxFactory``, BDD test coverage in ``features/database_resources.feature``, and Robot Framework integration tests in ``robot/database_resources.robot`` (PR #10591 / issue #8608, Epic #8568).

+
+This quick start guide will walk you through creating a new project, registering a resource, running a plan, and applying changes with CleverAgents.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Python 3.11+ and virtualenv
+- Git
+- A working CleverAgents installation (see development/testing.md for details)
+
+## Install (local development)
+
+```bash
+python -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate
+pip install -e .[dev]
+```
+
+## Create a new project
+
+```bash
+# Create a new directory for your project
+mkdir my-project && cd my-project
+# Initialize a CleverAgents project (example command)
+cleveragents init --name my-project
+```
+
+## Register a resource
+
+Create a resource file under `resources/` (example YAML) and register it with the CLI or API.
+
+## Plan and apply
+
+```bash
+# Create a plan using an action on your project
+cleveragents plan use <action-name> --project my-project
+# List plans to find the plan ID
+cleveragents plan list
+# Review the plan, then apply it by plan ID
+cleveragents plan apply <plan-id>
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+If you encounter issues running the examples above, consult `docs/development/testing.md` and the project README for local development tips.

+    Apply **requires** that at least one required validation was executed during the Execute phase.

+    - Any required validation returned `passed: false` (validation failure)
+    - No required validations were executed at all (empty validation summary)
+    - A plan has no validation attachments (no validations configured)
+
+    The `ApplyValidationSummary.all_required_passed` property returns `True` **only when** at least one required validation was executed AND none of the required validations failed. An empty summary always yields `False`.

When `result_success` is `NULL` (pre-migration records), the repository falls back to the legacy `error_message is None` heuristic for backward compatibility.

 5. **Datetime handling contract**: All timestamps stored in the database are UTC ISO 8601 strings (format: `YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.ffffff`). All Python datetime comparisons involving stored timestamps MUST parse the stored string back to a timezone-aware `datetime` object before comparing — **never** compare ISO timestamp strings lexicographically. String comparison is incorrect because different timezone offset formats (`+00:00` vs `Z` vs `+05:30`) produce strings that are not lexicographically comparable even when representing the same moment. The canonical pattern is:

+  As a developer
+  I want to index large projects with 10,000+ files
+  So that I can efficiently query and manage context entries at scale
+

+    Given I have an ACMS index
+    And I have a file traversal engine with chunk size 100
+
+  Scenario: Create an index entry with file metadata
+    When I create an index entry with:
+      | key       | value               |

+Feature: TDD Issue #10507 — get_current_revision() must pass check_same_thread=False for SQLite
+  As a developer using MigrationRunner in a multi-threaded application
+  I want get_current_revision() to work safely from background threads
+  So that async startup flows and background migration checks do not crash
+
+  The root cause is that MigrationRunner.get_current_revision() calls
+  create_engine(self.database_url) without connect_args={"check_same_thread": False}
+  for SQLite databases.  When called from a thread other than the one that
+  created the engine, SQLite raises:
+      ProgrammingError: SQLite objects created in a thread can only be
+      used in that same thread.
+
+  The sibling method init_or_upgrade() already passes check_same_thread=False
+  for SQLite, making this an inconsistency in the same class.  Because
+  get_pending_migrations() and check_migrations_needed() both delegate to
+  get_current_revision(), the threading bug propagates to all three methods.
+
+  The fix adds connect_args={"check_same_thread": False} to the create_engine()
+  call in get_current_revision() when the database URL starts with "sqlite",
+  consistent with the existing pattern in init_or_upgrade().
+
+  Scenario: get_current_revision passes check_same_thread=False for SQLite engine
+    Given a migration runner configured for "sqlite:///:memory:"
+    When I request the current revision and capture the engine creation args
+    Then the SQLite engine should be created with check_same_thread set to False
+
+  Scenario: get_current_revision does not pass check_same_thread for non-SQLite engine
+    Given a migration runner configured for "postgresql://user:pass@localhost/testdb"
+    When I request the current revision and capture the engine creation args

+  So that plans with historical build errors are not incorrectly marked as failed
+
+  The root cause is that PlanRepository._to_domain derived PlanResult.success

+

+  As a developer debugging a session creation failure
+  I want exceptions from _facade_dispatch() to be logged at WARNING level
+  So that I can diagnose why the facade layer failed without silent data loss
+
+  The ``session create`` command in
