 ### Fixed
 
-- **Trusted Automation Profile Description** (#9156): Corrected the `trusted` built-in automation profile description from `"Auto for most, human for apply and revert"` to `"Auto-exec, manual apply. Day-to-day development"` to match the specification at line 17197.
+- **Atomic `server_connect` config writes** (#993): Fixed `server_connect` in
+  `cli/commands/server.py` to write all three config values (`server.url`,
+  `server.namespace`, `server.tls-verify`) atomically. A snapshot of the config
+  file is taken before any writes; if any `set_value()` call fails, the snapshot is
+  restored and compensating `CONFIG_CHANGED` events are emitted for already-applied
+  keys so the audit trail reflects the rollback. Added `emit_config_changed()` helper
+  to `ConfigService` for decoupled event emission in rollback flows. Added
+  `close()` method to `ReactiveEventBus` for proper resource cleanup in tests.
+  Resolved merge conflict in `config_service.py` integrating the PR's
+  `emit_config_changed()` helper with master's scoped config infrastructure.
+  Removed `# type: ignore[assignment]` by introducing a typed `_AutoDiscover`
+  sentinel class. BDD regression coverage in
+  `features/tdd_server_connect_atomic_writes.feature`.

-- **Checkpoint Trigger Names and Config Key Path** (#5163): Aligned
-  `docs/specification.md` and `docs/reference/checkpointing.md` with the

-  `forgejo_list_pull_request_files` and `forgejo_get_pull_request_diff` permissions

-  directly inspect PR changes in PR fix mode, reducing unnecessary full-repo clones
-  and aligning permissions with the `pr-reviewer` agent. Also added `curl *`,
-  `printenv *`, and `echo $*` bash permissions needed for Forgejo API calls,
-  environment variable checks, and basic shell operations.

-- Added TDD bug-capture test for bug #991 — AuditService._ensure_session()
-  TOCTOU race. Behave BDD scenario (`@tdd_bug @tdd_bug_991

-  called exactly once — which currently fails, confirming the race. The
-  `@tdd_expected_fail` tag inverts this to a CI pass until the fix is

 ### Changed
 
-- **PR Merge Supervisor Criteria Documentation** (#8107): Updated `pr-merge-pool-supervisor.md` to
-  explicitly document all ten merge criteria that the supervisor applies at runtime. Replaces the
-  implicit six-criteria description with a dedicated "Ten Merge Criteria" section listing all
-  requirements: approval, CI passing, no conflicts, not stale, no `needs feedback` label, not
-  blocked, has milestone, has `Type/` label, has `Closes` reference, and changelog updated.
-  Eliminates the inconsistency between the agent definition and actual runtime behaviour.
-
 - **Decision Tree Full ULID Display** (#5825): The `agents plan tree` command now
   displays full 26-character ULIDs for all decisions instead of truncating them to

-- **Migration Prompt Safe Default on Failure** (#7503): Fixed
-  `MigrationRunner._default_prompt_for_migration` silently auto-approving destructive
-  database migrations when the interactive prompt raised any exception. The handler now
-  catches only `(IOError, OSError, EOFError)` (broken stdin / non-interactive pipe),
-  logs a `WARNING` instead of a `DEBUG` message, and returns `False` (reject) so that
-  migrations are never applied without explicit user consent. `KeyboardInterrupt` is
-  re-raised so Ctrl-C always works. Non-interactive environments (stdin not a TTY) also
-  now return `False` by default; use `CLEVERAGENTS_AUTO_APPLY_MIGRATIONS=true` or the
-  `--yes` CLI flag to approve automatically.
-
 - **Validation Gate Empty-Run Guard** (#7508): Fixed `ApplyValidationSummary.all_required_passed`

-  (`poolclass=StaticPool`, `connect_args={"check_same_thread": False}`) in
-  all three test cases, preventing connection sharing issues in the test
