feat(kanban): add specify — auxiliary LLM fleshes out triage tasks (#21435) 
* feat(kanban): add `specify` — auxiliary LLM fleshes out triage tasks

The Triage column shipped with a placeholder 'a specifier will flesh
out the spec', but the specifier itself was never built. This wires
it up as a dedicated CLI verb.

`hermes kanban specify <id>` calls the auxiliary LLM (configured under
`auxiliary.triage_specifier`) to expand a rough one-liner into a
concrete spec — tightened title plus a body with Goal / Approach /
Acceptance criteria / Out-of-scope sections — then atomically flips
`status: triage -> todo` and recomputes ready so parent-free tasks
go straight to the dispatcher on the same tick.

Surface:

  hermes kanban specify <task_id>               # single task
  hermes kanban specify --all [--tenant T]      # sweep triage column
  hermes kanban specify ... --author NAME       # audit-comment author
  hermes kanban specify ... --json              # one JSON line per task

Design choices:

  - Parent gating is preserved. specify_triage_task flips to 'todo',
    then recompute_ready promotes to 'ready' only when parents are
    done — same rule as a normal parent-gated todo.
  - No daemon, no background watcher. Every invocation is explicit —
    keeps cost predictable and doesn't fight the dispatcher loop.
  - Response parse is lenient: strict JSON preferred, markdown-fence
    tolerated, raw-body fallback on malformed JSON so the LLM can't
    strand a task in triage.
  - All failure modes (no aux client, API error, task moved out of
    triage mid-call) return SpecifyOutcome(ok=False, reason=...) so
    --all continues past individual failures.

Changes:

  hermes_cli/kanban_db.py    + specify_triage_task()
  hermes_cli/kanban_specify.py  NEW (~220 LOC — prompt, parse, call)
  hermes_cli/kanban.py       + specify subcommand + _cmd_specify
  hermes_cli/config.py       + auxiliary.triage_specifier task slot
  website/docs/user-guide/features/kanban.md  specify + config notes
  website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md      CLI reference entry
  tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_specify_db.py    NEW (10 tests)
  tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_specify.py       NEW (20 tests)

Validation: 30/30 targeted tests pass. E2E: triage task -> specify ->
ends in 'ready' with events [created, specified, promoted] and the
audit comment recorded under the configured author.

* feat(kanban): wire specifier into dashboard and gateway slash

Follow-ups to the initial PR #21435 — closes the two gaps I'd left as
post-merge: dashboard button and first-class gateway surface.

Dashboard (plugins/kanban/dashboard/)
  - POST /tasks/:id/specify  NEW endpoint. Thin wrapper around
    kanban_specify.specify_task(). Returns the CLI outcome shape
    ({ok, task_id, reason, new_title}); ok=false with a human reason
    is a 200, not a 4xx, so the UI can render it inline without
    treating 'no aux client configured' as a crash.
  - Runs sync in FastAPI's threadpool because the LLM call can take
    tens of seconds on reasoning models.
  - Pins HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD around the specify call so the module's
    argless kb.connect() lands on the right board.
  - dist/index.js: doSpecify callback threaded through the drawer →
    TaskDetail → StatusActions prop chain. ✨ Specify button appears
    ONLY when task.status === 'triage' (elsewhere the backend would
    reject anyway — hide the button to keep the action row clean).
    Busy state (Specifying…) + inline success/error banner under the
    button using the response.reason text.
  - dist/style.css: tiny hermes-kanban-msg-ok / -err classes using
    existing --color vars so themes reskin cleanly.

Gateway slash (/kanban specify)
  - Already works via the existing run_slash → build_parser →
    kanban_command pipeline. No code change needed — slash commands
    inherit the argparse tree automatically. Added coverage:
    test_run_slash_specify_end_to_end (create --triage, specify, verify
    promotion + retitle) and test_run_slash_specify_help_is_reachable.

Tests
  - tests/plugins/test_kanban_dashboard_plugin.py: 3 new tests for the
    REST endpoint — happy path, non-triage rejection as ok=false 200,
    missing aux client as ok=false 200.
  - tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_cli.py: 2 new slash-surface tests.

Docs
  - website/docs/user-guide/features/kanban.md: dashboard action row
    description mentions ✨ Specify + all three surfaces. REST table
    gains /tasks/:id/specify. Slash examples include /kanban specify.

Validation: 340/340 targeted tests pass. E2E via TestClient: create a
triage task over REST → POST /specify with mocked aux client → task
moves to 'ready' column on /board with new title and body applied.

feat(kanban): hallucination gate + recovery UX for worker-created-card claims (#20232) 
Workers completing a kanban task can now claim the ids of cards they
created via an optional ``created_cards`` field on ``kanban_complete``.
The kernel verifies each id exists and was created by the completing
worker's profile; any phantom id blocks the completion with a
``HallucinatedCardsError`` and records a
``completion_blocked_hallucination`` event on the task so the rejected
attempt is auditable. Successful completions also get a non-blocking
prose-scan pass over their ``summary`` + ``result`` that emits a
``suspected_hallucinated_references`` event for any ``t_<hex>``
reference that doesn't resolve.

Closes #20017.

Recovery UX (kernel + CLI + dashboard)
--------------------------------------

A structural gate alone isn't enough — operators also need to see and
act on stuck workers, especially when a profile's model is the root
cause. This PR ships the full loop:

* ``kanban_db.reclaim_task(task_id)`` — operator-driven reclaim that
  releases an active worker claim immediately (unlike
  ``release_stale_claims`` which only acts after claim_expires has
  passed). Emits a ``reclaimed`` event with ``manual: True`` payload.
* ``kanban_db.reassign_task(task_id, profile, reclaim_first=...)`` —
  switch a task to a different profile, optionally reclaiming a stuck
  running worker in the same call.
* ``hermes kanban reclaim <id> [--reason ...]`` and
  ``hermes kanban reassign <id> <profile> [--reclaim] [--reason ...]``
  CLI subcommands wired through to the same helpers.
* ``POST /api/plugins/kanban/tasks/{id}/reclaim`` and
  ``POST /api/plugins/kanban/tasks/{id}/reassign`` endpoints on the
  dashboard plugin.

Dashboard surfacing
-------------------

* ⚠ **warning badge** on cards with active hallucination events.
* **attention strip** at the top of the board listing all flagged
  tasks; dismissible per session.
* **events callout** in the task drawer — hallucination events render
  with a red left border, amber icon, and phantom ids as styled chips.
* **recovery section** in the task drawer with three actions: Reclaim,
  Reassign (with profile picker + reclaim-first checkbox), and a
  copy-to-clipboard hint for ``hermes -p <profile> model`` since
  profile config lives on disk and can't be edited from the browser.
  Auto-opens when the task has warnings, collapsed otherwise.
  Keyed by task id so state doesn't leak between drawers.

Active-vs-stale rule: warnings clear when a clean ``completed`` or
``edited`` event supersedes the hallucination, so recovery is never
permanently stigmatising — the audit events persist for debugging but
the badge goes away once the worker succeeds.

Skill updates
-------------

* ``skills/devops/kanban-worker/SKILL.md`` documents the
  ``created_cards`` contract with good/bad examples.
* ``skills/devops/kanban-orchestrator/SKILL.md`` gains a "Recovering
  stuck workers" section with the three actions and when to use each.

Tests
-----

* Kernel gate: verified-cards manifest, phantom rejection + audit
  event, cross-worker rejection, prose scan positive + negative.
* Recovery helpers: reclaim on running task, reclaim on non-running
  returns False, reassign refuses running without reclaim_first,
  reassign with reclaim_first succeeds on running.
* API endpoints: warnings field present on /board and /tasks/:id,
  warnings cleared after clean completion, reclaim 200 + 409 paths,
  reassign 200 + 409 + reclaim_first paths.
* CLI smoke: reclaim + reassign subcommands.

Live-verified end-to-end on a dashboard with seeded scenarios:
attention strip renders, badges land on the right cards, drawer
callout shows phantom chips, Reclaim on a running task flips status to
ready + emits manual reclaimed event + refreshes the drawer,
Reassign swaps the assignee and triggers board refresh.

359/359 kanban-suite tests pass
(test_kanban_{db,cli,boards,core_functionality} + dashboard + tools).

feat(kanban): durable multi-profile collaboration board (#17805) 
Salvage of PR #16100 onto current main (after emozilla's #17514 fix
that unblocks plugin Pydantic body validation). History preserved on
the standing `feat/kanban-standing` branch; this squashes the 22
iterative commits into one clean landing.

What this lands:
- SQLite kernel (hermes_cli/kanban_db.py) — durable task board with
  tasks, task_links, task_runs, task_comments, task_events,
  kanban_notify_subs tables. WAL mode, atomic claim via CAS,
  tenant-namespaced, skills JSON array per task, max-runtime timeouts,
  worker heartbeats, idempotency keys, circuit breaker on repeated
  spawn failures, crash detection via /proc/<pid>/status, run history
  preserved across attempts.
- Dispatcher — runs inside the gateway by default
  (`kanban.dispatch_in_gateway: true`). Ticks every 60s, reclaims
  stale claims, promotes ready tasks, spawns `hermes -p <assignee>
  chat -q "work kanban task <id>"` with HERMES_KANBAN_TASK +
  HERMES_KANBAN_WORKSPACE env. Auto-loads `--skills kanban-worker`
  plus any per-task skills. Health telemetry warns on stuck ready
  queue.
- Structured tool surface (tools/kanban_tools.py) — 7 tools
  (kanban_show, kanban_complete, kanban_block, kanban_heartbeat,
  kanban_comment, kanban_create, kanban_link). Gated on
  HERMES_KANBAN_TASK via check_fn so zero schema footprint in normal
  sessions.
- System-prompt guidance (agent/prompt_builder.py KANBAN_GUIDANCE)
  injected only when kanban tools are active.
- Dashboard plugin (plugins/kanban/dashboard/) — Linear-style board
  UI: triage/todo/ready/running/blocked/done columns, drag-drop,
  inline create, task drawer with markdown, comments, run history,
  dependency editor, bulk ops, lanes-by-profile grouping, WS-driven
  live refresh. Matches active dashboard theme via CSS variables.
- CLI — `hermes kanban init|create|list|show|assign|link|unlink|
  claim|comment|complete|block|unblock|archive|tail|dispatch|context|
  init|gc|watch|stats|notify|log|heartbeat|runs|assignees` +
  `/kanban` slash in-session.
- Worker + orchestrator skills (skills/devops/kanban-worker +
  kanban-orchestrator) — pattern library for good summary/metadata
  shapes, retry diagnostics, block-reason examples, fan-out patterns.
- Per-task force-loaded skills — `--skill <name>` (repeatable),
  stored as JSON, threaded through to dispatcher argv as one
  `--skills X` pair per skill alongside the built-in kanban-worker.
  Dashboard + CLI + tool parity.
- Deprecation of standalone `hermes kanban daemon` — stub exits 2
  with migration guidance; `--force` escape hatch for headless hosts.
- Docs (website/docs/user-guide/features/kanban.md + kanban-tutorial.md)
  with 11 dashboard screenshots walking through four user stories
  (Solo Dev, Fleet Farming, Role Pipeline, Circuit Breaker).
- Tests (251 passing): kernel schema + migration + CAS atomicity,
  dispatcher logic, circuit breaker, crash detection, max-runtime
  timeouts, claim lifecycle, tenant isolation, idempotency keys, per-
  task skills round-trip + validation + dispatcher argv, tool surface
  (7 tools × round-trip + error paths), dashboard REST (CRUD + bulk
  + links + warnings), gateway-embedded dispatcher (config gate, env
  override, graceful shutdown), CLI deprecation stub, migration from
  legacy schemas.

Gateway integration:
- GatewayRunner._kanban_dispatcher_watcher — new asyncio background
  task, symmetric with _kanban_notifier_watcher. Runs dispatch_once
  via asyncio.to_thread so SQLite WAL never blocks the loop. Sleeps
  in 1s slices for snappy shutdown. Respects HERMES_KANBAN_DISPATCH_IN_GATEWAY=0
  env override for debugging.
- Config: new `kanban` section in DEFAULT_CONFIG with
  `dispatch_in_gateway: true` (default) + `dispatch_interval_seconds: 60`.
  Additive — no \_config_version bump needed.

Forward-compat:
- workflow_template_id / current_step_key columns on tasks (v1 writes
  NULL; v2 will use them for routing).
- task_runs holds claim machinery (claim_lock, claim_expires,
  worker_pid, last_heartbeat_at) so multi-attempt history is first-
  class from day one.

Closes #16102.

Revert "feat(kanban): durable multi-profile collaboration board (#16081)" (#16098)

feat(kanban): durable multi-profile collaboration board (#16081) 
New `hermes kanban` CLI subcommand + `/kanban` slash command + skills for
worker and orchestrator profiles. SQLite-backed task board
(~/.hermes/kanban.db) shared across all profiles on the host. Zero
changes to run_agent.py, no new core tools, no tool-schema bloat.

Motivation: delegate_task is a function call — sync fork/join, anonymous
subagent, no resumability, no human-in-the-loop. Kanban is the durable
shape needed for research triage, scheduled ops, digital twins,
engineering pipelines, and fleet work. They coexist (workers may call
delegate_task internally).

What this adds
- hermes_cli/kanban_db.py — schema, CAS claim, dependency resolution,
  dispatcher, workspace resolution, worker-context builder.
- hermes_cli/kanban.py — 15-verb CLI surface and shared run_slash()
  entry point used by both CLI and gateway.
- skills/devops/kanban-worker — how a profile should work a claimed task.
- skills/devops/kanban-orchestrator — "you are a dispatcher, not a
  worker" template with anti-temptation rules.
- /kanban slash command wired into cli.py and gateway/run.py. Bypasses
  the running-agent guard (board writes don't touch agent state), so
  /kanban unblock can free a stuck worker mid-conversation.
- Design spec at docs/hermes-kanban-v1-spec.pdf — comparative analysis
  vs Cline Kanban, Paperclip, NanoClaw, Gemini Enterprise; 8 patterns;
  4 user stories; implementation plan; concurrency correctness.
- Docs: website/docs/user-guide/features/kanban.md, CLI reference
  updated, sidebar entry added.

Architecture highlights
- Three planes: control (user + gateway), state (board + dispatcher),
  execution (pool of profile processes).
- Every worker is a full OS process, spawned as `hermes -p <profile>`.
  No in-process subagent swarms — solves NanoClaw's SDK-lifecycle
  failure class.
- Atomic claim via SQLite CAS in a BEGIN IMMEDIATE transaction; stale
  claims reclaimed 15 min after their TTL expires.
- Tenant namespacing via one nullable column — one specialist fleet
  can serve many businesses with data isolation by workspace path.

Tests: 60 targeted tests (schema, CAS atomicity, dependency resolution,
dispatcher, workspace kinds, tenancy, CLI + slash surface). All pass
hermetic via scripts/run_tests.sh.
