Guard isolation lookup failures so cwd fallback still works.
At Line 29, if isolationEnvDb.getById(...) throws, resolution aborts immediately and never falls back to conversation.cwd / codebase cwd. That can make /status and /init fail on transient DB errors even when a valid fallback exists.
🔧 Proposed fix
if (options.preferIsolation !== false && conversation.isolation_env_id) {
- const env = await isolationEnvDb.getById(conversation.isolation_env_id);
- if (env?.working_path) {
- return {
- cwd: env.working_path,
- source: 'isolation',
- codebase: codebase ?? null,
- };

In @.archon/workflows/defaults/archon-speckit-feature.yaml:
- Around line 7-8: The workflow description in the "Does" section lists the
execution order as red-team before clarify, but the actual workflow steps in the
subsequent sections execute clarify before red-team. Update the "Does"
description text to reflect the correct execution sequence shown in the workflow
definition, ensuring clarify-ambiguities appears before
red-team-adversarial-review in the documented flow.
- Around line 12-15: The workflow definition includes an approval node but lacks
the required `interactive: true` configuration at the workflow level. Add
`interactive: true` as a top-level property in the workflow (at the same
indentation level as the `provider: codex` setting) to ensure the approval-gate
behavior works correctly in web runs. This top-level setting forces foreground
execution, which is necessary for approval gates to function properly in the web
UI.
In @.archon/workflows/defaults/archon-speckit-no-hitl-feature.yaml:
- Around line 7-8: The description in the "Does:" section incorrectly lists the
pipeline order as red-team before clarify, but the workflow nodes execute
clarify before red-team. Reorder the prose in the description at lines 7-8 to
place clarify ambiguities before red-team adversarial review to match the actual
runtime behavior. Apply the same fix to the other occurrences of this
description mismatch at lines 38-46 and 121-127 to ensure consistency throughout
the file.
In `@packages/core/src/orchestrator/orchestrator-agent.ts`:
- Line 631: The baseBranch assignment at line 631 (and also at lines 653 and
689) passes the raw codebase.default_branch value to toBranchName(), which can
contain whitespace padding that creates invalid branch names for downstream git
operations. Trim the codebase.default_branch value before passing it to
toBranchName() by calling .trim() on it. Update all three locations where
baseBranch is assigned with codebase.default_branch to ensure the branch name is
properly sanitized.
In `@packages/core/src/orchestrator/orchestrator.ts`:
- Around line 133-138: The raw database value `codebase.default_branch` is being
passed directly to `toBranchName` without normalization, which means any
whitespace padding from the database will propagate as invalid branch names into
the isolation/executor flows. Normalize the `default_branch` value by trimming
whitespace before passing it to the `toBranchName` function in the ternary
expression that sets `defaultBranch`. This fix needs to be applied in two
locations within the orchestrator.ts file (around lines 133-138 and also at
lines 321-331 where the same pattern occurs).
In `@packages/workflows/src/executor.ts`:
- Around line 412-420: The baseBranch selection logic does not trim the
config.baseBranch value before checking precedence, which means whitespace-only
strings are treated as valid values and prevent fallback to callerBaseBranch or
git auto-detection. Apply trim to config.baseBranch in the same way that
fallbackBaseBranch is trimmed (using the optional chaining and trim() pattern),
and then use the trimmed value in the precedence check for the baseBranch
assignment.

Use trimmed default_branch for baseBranch in workflow dispatch options.
These call sites forward raw codebase.default_branch; whitespace-padded values become invalid branch names and can break downstream git operations.

Normalize default_branch before calling toBranchName.
Both paths pass raw DB values to toBranchName; if default_branch contains whitespace padding, it propagates an invalid branch name into isolation/executor flows.
