v0.7.10 — patch-tier (N35 real-task dispatch + smoke→dispatch reframe)

Added

7 stories closing N35 (real-task dispatch beyond version probe) + multi-runner test layer reframe + v0.7.9 housekeeping. Patch-tier; operator-driven extension of v0.7.4 N5 + v0.7.7 N30 multi-runner foundation. Eleventh multi-cycle populated-CSV run (30 → 33 rows). v0.7.10 self-validated: tier=LOW score=22 files=9 sensitive=0 → skip with automated:true. 15 consecutive LOW-tier self-validations (v0.6.5..v0.7.10).

• US-001 — runner_dispatch wrapper — lib/runner.sh adds runner_dispatch <runner_name> <prompt> function composing runner_load + runner_build_cmd + eval. New tests/test_runner_dispatch.sh covers function presence, mock-echo manifest dispatch, unknown-runner error, and missing-args error (5 assertions).
• US-002 — codex dispatch test + manifest fix — tests/test_codex_dispatch.sh (skip-aware on missing codex CLI). Real-task dispatch uncovered codex manifest drift: runners/codex.json updated to use the exec subcommand and --full-auto flag (codex CLI removed -q and --approval-mode). Test asserts rc=0 + non-empty stdout + ≤60s wall-clock.
• US-003 — copilot dispatch test + scripting-safe hook flags — tests/test_copilot_dispatch.sh mirrors codex pattern; skip-aware on missing copilot CLI. runners/hooks/copilot-hooks.sh now adds --max-autopilot-continues 0 --silent --no-color --stream off --no-remote so non-interactive dispatch returns promptly without remote/session noise.
• US-004 — multi-runner E2E dispatch test — tests/test_multi_runner_dispatch_e2e.sh iterates claude+codex+copilot, dispatching a tiny prompt against each from isolated temp git repos. Two accounting buckets: dispatched (rc=0 + non-empty) and skipped (binary not on PATH). Final invariant: dispatched + skipped == 3. 5/5 assertions on this dogfood machine (all three runners dispatched).
• US-005 — multi-runner test layers documentation — CLAUDE.md gains a "Multi-runner test layers" subsection distinguishing smoke (version-probe health check) from dispatch (real-task end-to-end). lib/runner.sh header lists all three top-level entry-points (runner_load, runner_build_cmd, runner_dispatch).
• US-006 — smoke test docstring reframe — tests/test_codex_runner_smoke.sh and tests/test_copilot_runner_smoke.sh headers updated to identify themselves as the SMOKE/health-check layer and cross-link to the new DISPATCH layer.
• US-007 — retrospective + v0.7.9 housekeeping — idea-stage/PIPELINE_REPORT_v21.md + idea-stage/IDEA_REPORT_v21.md. Commits docs/plans/2026-04-28-v0.7.9-bundle-design.md + tasks/prd-v0.7.9-bundle.md that were authored in v0.7.9 cycle but never staged (untracked-design-prd housekeeping, recurring pattern from v0.7.5/v0.7.6 N29/N34 audits).

Test-suite delta

+4 new test files, +16 new assertions:

• 4 new: test_runner_dispatch.sh (5 asserts), test_codex_dispatch.sh (3 asserts), test_copilot_dispatch.sh (3 asserts), test_multi_runner_dispatch_e2e.sh (5 asserts)

Manifest fix

• runners/codex.json invocation: headlessFlags: ["-q"] → ["exec"]; autoApproveFlags: ["--approval-mode", "full-auto"] → ["--full-auto"] (codex CLI flag migration).

Dogfood milestone (v0.7.10)

7/7 user-facing stories shipped first-attempt PASS under manual takeover. 0 retries. Multi-cycle CSV milestone: 30 → 33 rows. G30 self-validation (15th consecutive correct LOW classification): tier=LOW score=22 files=9 sensitive=0 → skip; recorded with automated:true. Real-task dispatch validated end-to-end for claude + codex + copilot with isolated temp git workdirs. Full retrospective: idea-stage/PIPELINE_REPORT_v21.md. v0.9.0+ backlog: idea-stage/IDEA_REPORT_v21.md.
