Second alpha since team mode. The headline is documentation — bench.12vectors.com is live — and a set of fixes where the board was quietly telling you something untrue.

Setup

  • The first run asks two questions, not three: solo or team, and which agent adapter. What runs your tests is read off the project instead (package.json → npm test, Cargo.toml → cargo test, go.mod → go test ./..., a pyproject.toml/setup.py/tests/ → python3 -m unittest). A project matching none of them gets BOARD_AGENT_COMMANDS empty rather than a default that would be wrong.
  • update.sh offers to commit the update it just made, and a pinned port stays pinned.

The board

  • Merging a card is a state the card wears. Dragging a card to done with work attached used to leave it looking idle for the length of a merge; it now shows the work, suspends its own actions, and refuses a second request rather than starting a second merge.
  • Archiving a card commits itself, like every other write to a task file. An archive used to leave an uncommitted deletion behind — which, in team mode, silently stalled sync for everything after it.
  • A long closing report keeps its headline. Reports were clipped to their last 3000 characters, which threw away the first sentence — the one saying what happened.
  • A replayed session keeps its identity. Sessions read back from disk lost their agent and were labelled as you.
  • The browser tab says how many agents are working, so a backgrounded board still tells you.
  • The card drawer renders a wrapped list item as one item, and - [ ] as a checkbox.
  • Review launches no longer die at startup on a deny rule naming a tool the installed CLI no longer has.

Docs

bench.12vectors.com — guides, concepts, and a settings reference generated from this repository’s own markdown, so what the docs say and what bench does cannot drift apart. The site is not part of this artifact.
